In a historical vote by Congress, the American people have been awarded with a Health Care Reform Bill.  The richest country on earth has decided that all her people will have some health coverage.  While this is a monumental occasion I am certain that it wont come without a cost to you. 

You are going to have to become a “good steward” of what God has given you.  To whom much is given, much is required.  Your body requires that you maintain it!  You need to make sure that you perform preventative maintenance on it regularly.  In addition, you want to give it the best gas possible.  You may want to try eating lots of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and smaller portions of lean meats.  In addition, keeping soda, alcohol, sugary drinks to a minumum and increasing 100% fruit juices and water. 

You may also want to look for ways to stop smoking and limit your exposure to those types of toxins.

Finally, it will be inevitable that you begin to become more physically active.  The lack of physical activity has caused an increase in premiums for those of you who were fortunate enough to have health insurance (whether you know it or not).  It is all a butterfly effect.  Your health and wellness will affect others in some way: either physically (viruses passed around at school, work, bus, plane, train) or financially (higher premiums or higher health care because of increased ER visits).

Get well and be well AND help us keep this cost of health care down…for you and generations to come.
