Protection Of Health

Recently I met Ben , a 23 years old person. He is fair, hardworking and well built. He works in an ITES  company in Kochi.

 We were discussing about incidents of crisis in life. He shared a crisis he had recently. He works long shifts in office.

 He donated blood to a relative who was about to undergo surgery. The “sister” who took his blood in the hospital blood bank told him that she sees some abnormality in his profile.

 Later he had a medical checkup to verify what his problem is.

 He said, other than ‘Kidney’ all other parts have started failing.

 He says the main reason for this is

a)      Ordering Pizza, Burger etc., and eating from office regularly.
b)      Eating home delivered readymade chicken from popular fast-food.

c)      Lack of exercise.

Now he says he has been directed by the doctor to run for 2 hours daily morning and restrict his food habits and control his weight.

All the above is due to lack of awareness and detrimental life style practices followed (weight control, food control, exercise)

We ‘know’ all this.

 But we will not follow, because we believe that ill-health will 

“Never happen to us, it happen to others only ".
