A healthy living is something more profound than just body features and looks. A healthy living is about your life style and how it affects your future. A healthy person not only keeps his body healthy but his mind as well. And in return a healthy person gives strength to others around him to get healthy.

In the healthy zone, we will try to cover all these aspects. I know most people are worried about their bodies and have looked pretty much everywhere for an easy way to lose weight and look stunning, and many of them might not make it to this page to hear this: Live healthy and your body will look healthy as well.

It does not help to spend hours at the gym to build muscle if you have to use dangerous products to obtain these muscles. At the end of the day, you might look strong and healthy but the damage to your body and the subsequent side effects are just not worth it.

Same think for people trying to look like top models, starving themselves, cutting parts of their bodies and ending up under a surgeon knife!

All these processes are not part of a healthy body! They are actually damaging to your whole system and against natural laws…

Health is about respecting your body! Think about it. Something as simple as an engine car can only take a certain type of petrol to work properly, and needs your daily attention to last! People would gladly go through the trouble of cleaning it, making sure it has enough water and oil, and take it in for service after driving it for a number of miles!

The question is why can we not use the same courtesy and care for ourselves?

We would never ignore a red light on the petrol gage of our cars, but we gladly ignore the warnings on cigarette packs! We would never ignore the red light on the heat control of our cars, but we gladly ignore the warnings in bottle stores!

I am not talking about mindless people here! But all of us, no matter how educated we are!

We take better care of our possessions than we take of ourselves!
