"Prevention is better than cure"

A famous proverb as true as it gets. Having familiarity with certain conditions doesn't necessarily mean developing them.

Excellent prevention consists of healthy food that strengthens the body and defenses, avoiding foods that could trigger the onset of certain issues. Physical activity also plays a crucial role!

Working synergistically on both fronts allows for achieving the best results.
