There are many things in life that you don’t have control over. For example, you may not be able to obtain the job you really want or the pay you feel you deserve.  Or you can’t control traffic or other people’s actions on the road.  But there is one thing most of us do have control over- our health. Aside from some genetic conditions which we cannot control, most sickness and disease such as hypertension, obesity, heart disease and stroke can be prevented.   And you.
