Seven Essentials to Life and Health e-bog

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. There is still too wide a chasm between the people and the medical profession. The only way to narrow this chasm is to narrow that other gulf that lies be tween both classes and a true knowledge of Hygiene. The Ancient Greeks had a goddess Hygieia, who was fabled to preside over the health of the people. Hence the modems have named that science which treats of the preservation of health, Hygiene. Very few today even among educated professional people have a well classified knowledge of Hygiene. The great majority are still feeling their way toward the light. It is the privilege of every human being to know all that is possible for him to comprehend, of his own being and body and his relations to this life and world. It is necessary to know something about ourselves, to prevent that useless worry and wear and waste, that so soon destroys all the harmony of existence, ren ders us of little account, and ends in the cutting short of a miserable existence. To be hygienic even in spots may add years to one's life and these years may be years of joyful usefulness.
