Everyone will want to be healthy and be healthier than ever. Because when we are sick we can not do the job as usual. But I always wondered why people are still doing unhealthy things, like taking drugs, smoking, eating junk food and others. What do you think about this? and what do you do to maintain your health?

Why do people do things that are not healthy? Because, it is easier to do that. Same with its opposite. Why do people don't do things that are healthier? The answer is, it is easier not to do that. Simple.

Some People restrict themselves by avoiding unhealthy eating and drinking habits just to avoid health hazards.While some people,neglect their health and eat whatever they want.Its just because they want to enjoy life and don't want to restrict themselves.They do everything consciously.But still they can't overcome these habits.They are simply spoiling their life and health. Many say that "prevention is better than cure",but can anybody guarantee a healthy,long lasting life if u have only healthy eating habits. It is just a belief.I am not saying to stop being preventive.It is always good to be preventive,but no body can prevent destiny.That is the reality.
