Staying healthy means balancing the body and spirit. Learning how to keep your body's optimal balance requires a lifelong commitment. Human body has its own self healing mechanism which can be maintain by using natural methods, like herbal remedies, alternative medicine, changing nutritional habits, etc. Prevention is extremely important, as disease, generally speaking, is created by ourselves.

Majority of the disease can be prevented. We can not have a healthy society without taking preventive measures. Stress, lack of exercise, drug abuse, environmental toxicity are just a few examples of causes of diseases.

Number one preventive measure is to stop polluting the soil and water. Ocean pollution is a major problem that is affecting not only the ocean, but the rest of the Earth, too. Pollution in the ocean directly affects ocean organisms and indirectly affects human health and resources. Oil spills, toxic wastes, and dumping of other harmful materials are all major sources of pollution in the ocean.

Stress is a major disease factor too. Stress and imbalance create not only a sick body, but also an unhealthy society. The environmental stress is a response to things around us that cause stress, such as noise, crowding, pressure from work or family, etc. We create stress by not getting enough rest, working too hard or too much, not knowing how to manage our time well, or how to take time out for rest or relaxation.

Blaming our health on the international health crisis is a big mistake. We just can't do that. The only one to blame is each of us for not taking responsibility to live healthy.

Conclusion

Taking responsibility involves self awareness. Traditional medicine is becoming very expensive. The solutions to this problem is switching to alternative medicine, herbal remedies, healthy nutrition and exercise.
