It is time to Pay attention to Your Health.

Dear readers,

Do you pay attention to your health? This is a fair question because some people don’t.

Basically, your body tells you when it is time to pay attention to your health. Are you experiencing any symptoms that are causing you to worry like blurred vision, persistent pain, numbness in limbs, diarrhea, urinary frequency, shortness of breath, constipation and anything out of the ordinary? These symptoms are signals that your body is out of balance and it needs to be rebalanced before it is too late.

PAY ATTENTION  TO HEALTH: TIME FOR A CHECKUP

Without a doubt, these symptoms should be checked out by a health professional at a clinic, hospital or private office. It does not matter where you go as long as the healthcare facility is certified and you get your health screening done. Routinely, you will need to have blood and urine tests done. Sometimes, the health professional will request a stool test. Also, you will get your temperature, pulse rate, respiration and blood pressure taken and recorded.

TIME FOR THE DIAGNOSIS

After the examination and the results are in from all tests, the health professional  can hopefully identify what is going on with you. This is called a diagnosis. If the diagnosis is unfavorable, you should not worry. Worrying will only cause undue stress to your already comprised body. It is possible that medication will be prescribed. Please take it to help you feel better.

Most of the time people worry because they are not informed. You will not suffer in that area. For your information, according to World Health Organization
(WHO), “the ten top causes of death are ischemic heart disease, stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,  lower respiratory infection, Alzheimer disease and other dementia, trachea, bronchus, lung cancer, Diabetes mellitus,  road injury, Diarrhoeal diseases and Tuberculosis.”

You have been diagnosed and informed let’s run along and make some changes to improve your health.

TIME FOR ACTION

More than several changes should be made to improve your health. You should do the following:

1.Take medication as prescribed or a highly recommended natural alternative. Please remember that the recommended dosage of a substance is according to body weight.

Eat foods that heal – low in sodium and high in fiber. Some super healing foods are papaya, kiwi, cranberry, wheat grass and dragonfruit, just to name a few.

• Exercise regularly.
• Maintain a good body weight. Excessive stress on your heart is not healthy at all.
• Avoid drinking alcohol and smoking. Drinking herbal teas, natural juices, water and fresh air are healthier choices.
• Keep yourself safe.

 

Implementing these changes should help you to reduce the risk of having symptoms of illness. In some cases, the body actually starts to heal. We will talk about this in another blog.

CONCLUDING THOUGHTS

Finally, it is clear there is a greater probability that your health can improve by you taking the time to pay attention to your health, by visiting a health professional,  being diagnosed, being informed and implementing simple life sustaining changes in your daily routine.

Please don’t  wait until it’s too late. Take the time now to schedule your annual/follow up appointment with your doctor.  Your life may depend on this simple action.

1. “Encouragement to all women is – let us try to offer help before we have to offer therapy.  That is to say, let’s see if we can’t prevent being ill by trying to offer a love of prevention  before illness.” – Maya Angelou.

Have a blessed day!
