good health is very important for every person. moreover, there is nothing more important than health. wise people even say: “health is above wealth”, because if you don’t care of your health, you can’t study or work properly.
unfortunately, having perfect health is almost impossible nowadays. due to highly polluted environment people suffer from many diseases.
the best way to stay healthy is to do regular morning exercise, to eat healthy products, to sleep at least 8 hours a day and to quit bad habits. the good thing is that people are becoming more health-conscious. in my opinion, the number of smoking and alcohol drinking people is decreasing in our country. this is happening because people started to understand how dangerous these two bad habits are. obesity is another health problem. people, who eat lots of fattening food and do almost no exercise, are often overweight. a healthy diet involves many fruit and vegetables, seafood and wholegrain products. salt, sugar and fat should be avoided. excessive dieting can be also dangerous. some people refuse to eat meat and become vegetarian. however, doctors say that meat is an excellent source of good nutrition.
to my mind, one of the best ways to stay healthy and fit is to go in for various sports. my favourite sport is swimming. i spend a lot of time in the swimming-pool. i think it revitalizes my body and gives me energy for the whole day. other sports i enjoy are cross-country skiing and figure-skating. to stay healthy, it is also important to spend lots of time in the open air. it is especially useful to go for a walk before going to bed.
following these simple rules regularly is the only way to promote our health.
Hi John, I hope you are doing fine. Have you got any news to tell me? You asked me some question and I would like to answer them now. You asked for my opinion about being independent of my parents. I think one can hardly be independent when he or she is under 18. We don't have necessary skills and knowledge to live separately from our parents. Renting a room or a flat can also cost a lot and only our parents can pay for us. What about you? When do you plan to start living separately from your parents? As to leaving parents as soon I finish school, I think I could do it. If I enter a good university with good accomodation, living without my parents would be no problem. Though I think I would miss my home, especially during the first months. Many Russian students who study abroad miss their homes in the beginning. It is not easy to get used to another country and the language. And it can take a lot of time to understand traditions and customs of the new country. Have you ever studied abroad? Do you think you could live far from your home for a long time? OK, so much for today. Write soon. Best wishes, Mike.
