RE: WHY WE HOMESTEAD - Part 9 - HEALTH

in #homesteading7 years ago

Being able to have better control over what you put into your body is so important.
So many doctors prescribe medications, which only mask symptoms, bandage the problem.

People pay higher insurance premiums because of high blood pressure, weight, smoking, etc
SO healthier living is better.

Nice to enjoy nature too. So happy you, and many others, are able to work your own land and actually enjoy life.

Well water? OMGoodness... I love well water. When I drink 'city water' I think 'ewww' tastes like chemicals and goodness knows what else

Sort:  

No kidding who knows what else!

Good comment @goldendawne. Having a natural healthy lifestyle prevents so many nasty diseases and ailments. Pharmaceutical companies rather you eat crap and smoked. Then they would sell you their drugs to make you feel temporarily less sick.

Being happy is another way of being healthy. It is amazing what the mind can do.
