This applies to sexual activity as well as physical sporting or work/pleasure activities as well. It entails thinking about consequences for our behaviour so that we are protecting the health of our body in everything that we do.

Aging successfully hinges on providing our bodies with proper nutrition throughout every life stage. Each stage has different needs from embryonic, infant, toddler, child, older child, teen, young adult, adult and aging adult.

Eat right and you will grow right from conception through the teen years, when it changing to reproductive tasks and matures.

Water,food and air are things that we consume.Alcohol,drugs and tobacco, along with sun exposure are very much things that we can have a hand on.
