Essay- Health is Wealth

Health is Wealth 

IntroductionWe all know the popular saying 'Health is Wealth.' By health, we do not mean the absence of physical troubles only. But, it is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. The loss of health is a loss of all happiness. Mahatma Gandhi also says, "It is health which is real wealth and not the pieces of gold and silver." 

Importance of Good Health- A good health reduces the stress level and promotes healthy life without any sufferings. We should always be aware of our health and go for regular health check-up. We should eat balanced food having fresh fruit, salad, green leafy vegetables, milk, egg, curd etc. in timely manner in order to maintain the good health. A good health also needs some daily physical activities, proper rest and sleep, cleanliness, healthy environment, fresh air and water, personal hygiene etc. In order to reduce our rush between hospital and home, maintaining a good health is a better idea. Maintaining a good health is a good habit which should be practised from childhood with the help of parents. (2015)

Conclusion-There are many people in this world, who are extremely wealthy but due to poor health, they are unable to enjoy their material coins. Their daily performance is hampered by physical and mental incapacitation and hence, they can be actually considered 'poor'. A materially poor man or woman but rich in terms of health, actually, can be termed as 'wealthy' as he or she is not hampered by sickness. The latter does not have to fork out money for treatment and can enjoy a peaceful and blissful life. In short, good health is wealth as no amount of money can cure one of terrible sickness. Good health ensures a fulfilling and enriching life.
