NIRSED AID Prepare To Care For You There are many things that doctors and hospitals can do to treat you for illnesses that have developed, but only YOU can preserve your own good health and prevent ill health. So . . . All of the following health habits should be built into your daily pattern of living. Do not smoke. Cigarette smoking contributes to lung cancer and emphysema and is damaging to the heart. Eat sensibly. This means following a well-balanced diet so that you receive the necessary nutrition. Be moderate in your use of alcohol. The general opinion among doctors is that if you regularly take more than two drinks daily, you may be headed for a drinking problem. Exercise regularly. While it is true that many more people are ninning, jogging, and taking part in other regular exercise now than some years ago, many others still sit at a desk all day and let their physical structure deteriorate. Avoid dangerous drugs. Most people know that the use of “street” drugs leads to addiction and all too often to fatal overdoses. What is not so commonly known is that indiscriminate or prolonged use of drugs that have been prescribed by your doctor can also be dangerous. If you are taking several medications, check with your doctor to make sure they can be safely mixed. Observe safety measures. Most good health habits are aimed at preventing illness, but accidents also account for many hours and dollars of medical care and often result in permanent disability or death. Be prudent. This is a simple package of rales. Yet, if we all followed these rales, we could almost wipe out lung cancer and emphysema; decrease other cancers, heart disease, hardening of the arteries, and high blood pressure; reduce the occurrence of cirrhosis of the liver and a number of disabling gastrointestinal problems; and upgrade the level of mental health.

It also means in most cases that the day the anxious couple take their vows, the woman becomes not only a wife but a future widow. The statistics tell it all. For not only do women outlive men in this country by an average of some eight years, they tend to marry men who are at least several years their seniors. It’s at the point where there are more than 10 million widows in the U.S. today — five widows for every widower.
