READ THIS BEFORE STARTING A FAMILY.

-

How can our world be more healthy? How can we overcome outbreaks  of diseases? Where do we start from to ensure an individual is healthy and lives life to the fullest? It may seem to be difficult and a capital project, yes, but there's a place we can start from, The family. 

What is family in its entirety? 
The family is the smallest unit of the society, everyone belongs to one either by birth or adoption, either 'legally' or 'illegally'. Someone must have an origin, a generation, a root, a family. This special group comprises of those related by blood or marriage. It could be the nuclear type (just father, mother and children) or the extended type which may include every other person. Medically, a family can be related to a household, the group that eats from the same kitchen or pot. I hope I have brought up the memory of your primary school definition of a family. 
What is a healthy family? 
A 'just a family' is different from a 'healthy family'. A healthy family is a family that has a state of complete physical, social and mental well-being and not merely the absence of diseases or infirmities. Now quote me (BolaHealth), there's an aspect you should also look at, the spiritual aspect. When thinking of a healthy family, think of the spiritual health too. Seems like a mystery but it is true. More explanation for another day. 

What are the pillars of a healthy family? 
In ensuring you raise or maintain a healthy family, there are some pillars you must ensure are present so the house you are building will stand. A strong building has strong pillars so it won't collapse untimely. These pillars include:
1. Vision and determination 
2. Education (formal and informal) 
3. Genetics and inheritance 
4. Finance
5. God. 
When these 5 pillars are adequately constructed and placed in the right angle of the building of a family, the family becomes healthy and will thrive. To start a thing, you must have the picture and foresight of that thing and you must be determined to wheather the storm no matter what hence the need for a vision. 
Education is the best legacy, both formal and informal is are ushers of great information that can turn things around. If we say education is expensive, we can try ignorance. 
Genetics gives rise to generations, no one can deny those genes inherited, we don't get to choose our genes, yet they speak much about our health. 
Finance is a very important aspect of the sustenance of a family. 
God.... Hmm, God the creator of all things is needed to keep family together. 

Yea, permit me to stop here for now, we shall talk about each pillar one after the other and I know you will enjoy yourself, don't forget to share this post and subscribe to this blog. 

Let me read your comments.

HOW YOU CAN ENJOY SWEET FOOD WITHOUT MUCH SALT

In 200level medical school, I had this room mate who was a good cook but her food seems saltless to my taste bud. Tolulope, now Dr Akinnimi Tolulope will cook nice food yet with as little salt and oil as possible. It was strange to me even though then I had a little knowledge of why I should reduce salt intake but I couldn't really comprehend the greatness of its importance.  Looking back now, with so much medical knowledge I have gained over 8 years ago, I must say that my room mate was wiser then. You see, one thing about habit changing is that it could look strange to you and others at first but when you keep at it, it becomes your character. Reduction of salt in diet can become a part of you. Wait, salt is very important, yes, very very impotant. Salt is used for preserving food and to prevent food spoilage, we also use it more importantly to add taste to our food. Salt (table salt) contains sodium and chlorine. It is this sodium content that we need to watch, since we cannot s...
