Healthcare . . . . is not . . . . .
Health is a choice, generally speaking. Yet, in a society that is rife with unhealthy food choices, demands on finances, and a healthcare system that is marginal at best, many struggle to sustain adequate health and wellness. It is up to each person to do what they can in the maintenance of their health and functionality.

The vital connection between physical health and spiritual well-being cannot be over-emphasized.

Nutrition is vital for health, but availability of processed foods, deviod of nutritional value, is dominate on conventional store shelves. Individuals must prioritize self-care to enhance their own, overall well-being.
