How to Prevent Heart Diseases - With Ancient Medicinal Exercises

Ignorance and negligence regarding health that prevail among people today are really shocking. There are only a few persons who make sincere and active efforts to understand their body and health. As a matter of fact we have entrusted the problems of our health to the care of medical science. The more powerful the drugs the more dangerous their side effects are. The drugs which were once considered perfectly safe have nowadays proved to be harmful and even dangerous. Thalidomide used to be thought a harmless sleeping pill and Phenacetin a safe analgesic; but today it is recognized that Thalidomide when taken during pregnancy is responsible for a number of cases of congenital deformities in babies while Phenacetin in quite a few cases causes severe kidney trouble. There is the recent case of a laxative widely sold in Japan whose manufacturer paid out Rs. Twenty-five crores as compensation to those affected by untoward side-effects. There is a similar case over a slimming drug in America which drew public attention because of its harmful effects.
