ABOUT HEALTH

An Immune India

“A healthy outside starts from inside” said Robert Urich. A nation is built on the foundation of healthy and conscientious citizens. No country can stand tall if its country men are sick. The future of a country depends on how healthy its children are.  India has the ubiquitous presence of a well enriched culture and history. The Vedic times are a testimony to the fact that how important   health was  to  its citizens. Ayurveda and Unani shastras are an evidence of the fact the health has been always on the cards of its rulers. It has taken years to develop and perfect various practices mentioned in Ayurveda. Still today Ayurveda has loyal followers who has taken this science to a unimaginable level

Developing immunity is a personal quest. Today doctors prescribe various ways to keep our body fit and fine. As compared to olden day when everything was pure , today adulteration has made it difficult to keep us healthy. Today marketization of food has many   artificial entrants in this category.  The quality of food we take has declined.  Another siren to this problem is lack of awareness of  a healthy culture. Even today villagers and uneducated persons are not aware of how to make healthy choices. The initiative taken by Dabur India is very welcome.
