I always advocate that “An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure”. We all need to take control of our health issues and improve on it so as to live better, productive live. Some ways of improving your health include:-
Do go for a regular medical check-up:- Prevention they say is better than cure.

Once you have a health insurance policy in place this is usually very helpful. Even when you do not feel sick a good medical check-up is necessary so as to detect any issue that may arise thus indicating if you do need medical assistance.
Do maintain a good weight:- Obesity is the number one leading cause of death in people all over the world because it can result in diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, cancer related illnesses and so many others. It is important that you are aware of your BMI calculations to find out if your current weight is healthy or if you are at the risk of any health problem mentioned above. Also watch your weight carefully not to add additional kgs or pounds.
