The Root of Health

"Walking is man's best medicine" - Hippocrates

After we talked about Roman medicine in class I found it interesting that they were so advanced. It's astonishing to think about how they performed all of these surgeries and made all of these tools that we still use.

This quote shows that health (other than unpreventable diseases and aging illnesses), is pretty simple. Exercise will always keep you healthy. Even the best and brightest, like the man who inspired the Hippocratic Oath, know the basic key to living a good life.
