Health

Some people say that health care is expensive, no, I think sick/pain is expensive and healthy is cheap (no offense for this). Health according to Wikipedia is the level of functional and (or) metabolic efficiency of a living being. In humans, it is the general condition of a person in mind, body and spirit, usually meaning to being free from illness, injury or pain (as in “good health” or “healthy”). But it would be more interesting if we know the history of health itself.

World Health / Medicine began approximately 2500 years ago which at the time of ancient Greece. We already know the theory of Hippocrates "The recovery is based on that the body has the power that comes from within to restore and is called Physical." This word comes from Phisic who later became Phisician or a doctor who served as a guide to accompany the patient to recover from his illness the patient's body, by using the power of his own body.


Difference of opinion between Hippocrates with other scientists about the theory of recovery have been developed since those days when you first get a rebuttal from the Democrates who proposed atomic theory, he argues that the human body is also another life in this world, just as the atomic chemical reaction process, so where possible natural recovery / itself from within. These are two opinions clash continued until now.

World of modern medicine itself is more based on atomic theory and follows the influence of previous doctors. So the main goal of medical science is to cure disease only, regardless of the ability of the body itself as a natural restorer.

But in recent years globally there is a tendency to return to nature. Especially in the field of herbal medicine use, very strong in developed countries. There was also a mental exercise like Yoga, Pilates, Tai chi and many more, are also increasingly in demand because it believed more could maintain health rather than using drugs from a doctor.

In here I will not say which one is better in theory whether Hippocrates or Democrates. Health by making healthy lifestyle such as exercise, healthy foods, and healthy lifestyle it will be better because it prevents us from disease, it can be said that "prevention is better than cure".
