As age increases,#health issues become more complex. Be physically & mentally active; engage in hobbies that keep the mind and body fit and healthy.

ઉંમર વધવાની સાથે સાથે શારીરિક અને માનસિક સમસ્યાઓ પણ વધે છે. જો મોટી ઉંમરના લોકો નિયમિત યોગ, કસરત કે ચાલવા જેવી શારીરિક પ્રવૃત્તિઓ કરે તો તેઓ તંદુરસ્ત અને સ્ફૂર્તીભર્યુ જીવન જીવી શકે છે..

Junk food is not a food group. Children are especially susceptible to its dangers. Avoid making it part of your and your children’s daily diet and focus instead on the 5 food groups – Dairy, Vegetables, Fruits, Grains and Proteins, and plenty of💧. #eatrightindia #HealthyEating

Never consume any antibiotics that are prescribed for someone else, even though you may be suffering from the same illness. Misuse of antibiotics leads to #AntibioticResistance – one of the biggest threats to global health, food security and development today. @WHO

[Ministry of Health @MoHFW_INDIA]

You can prevent antibiotic resistance. A RED LINE on the strip of medicines implies that the medicine should not be consumed without a doctor's prescription.
