Abstract

Good health is a prerequisite for the adequate functioning of any individual or society. If our health is sound, we can engage in numerous types of activities. But if we are ill or injured, we may face the curtailment for our usual round of daily life and we may also become so pre-occupied with our state of health that other pursuits are of secondary importance or quite meaningless. Health is the topmost priority in every individual's life. Its importance is evident in old saying, "Health is Wealth". Every human being's basic goal is to be healthy and lead a happy life.
