To me, good health is more than just exercise and diet. It's really a point of view and a mental attitude you have about yourself. ~ Angela Lansbury aka the lady in Murder She Wrote :)

The best six doctors anywhere
And no one can deny it
Are sunshine, water, rest, and air
Exercise and diet.
These six will gladly you attend
If only you are willing
Your mind they'll ease
Your will they'll mend
And charge you not a shilling.
~Nursery rhyme quoted by Wayne Fields, What the River Knows, 1990

I thought this was very appropriate considering the very bad us economy and the rising cost of health care all over the world!
