South Florida Children

in my travels for a better life for myself and my children I have begun to focus quite a bit on my own personal health habits and what habits I instill in my kids. Living a healthy lifestyle as a parent is of course doubly benefit because not only will you expand your own lifespan by living well but you will also hopefully inspire your children to live longer and healthier lives as well. It’s commons sense that the younger we begin to live healthy the better effect it will have on our lives and developing a healthy lifestyle at a young age is important to long term health care and life extension.

As a youth I never thought much about the things we put into and on our bodies and now I regret many of the decisions I have made in my life that I think may effect my health as I get older. As a teen in high school it was nothing but cool to smoke cigarettes and I was the coolest kid in school. Or should I say I was the Koolest kid as in Kool Milds we’re my favorite brand of cigarette and I smoked them heavily for about 10 years before my wife told me she was pregnant and I quit that very day. It was pretty easy to do with the right incentive as I already knew the benefits I simply didn’t care enough to bother with them until I became responsible for another persons life and well being. I refused to smoke around my pregnant wife and I knew I didn’t want to smoke around my children and start them on a path to nowhere at a young age.

Now that I have two sons and much more to live for then when I was young and dumb I look for information on health and healthy living so that I can not only extend my own life but hopefully the lives of my children, friends and family by leading a example of healthy living. It’s not easy being healthy in todays society and there are many benign looking evils in our world. from unhealthy eating habits to improper health care many of us are dying at an early age with no idea that many of the ills in our world could be cared for with a little preventive medicine and proper education of health facts.

Thats where the power of the internet comes in to play and allows me to research great health and medical websites like the Heath Salon. they offer up to date article on a variety of health care issues that effect not only me but my network of loved ones as well and the better informed I am the better off we can all be by sharing healthy living tips and information. Todays hot topic is the HPV vaccination and forced vaccines in schools and this has a direct effect on our family and the young ladies in it. I personally am against forced vaccinations because of my beliefs that autism is partially caused by mercury in vaccines and I don’t feel the government should be forcing girls to take a vaccine that they don’t necessarily need and may in fact be harmful to them. Thanks for the internet and resources like Health Salon that help keep us informed and our friends and family healthy.
