There are hardly any rules worth having but there are some principles which will help to counteract the harmful genes.
These principles are: love in childhood. Love from parents.
Another principle is — healthy nutrition — with all elements in proper proportion.
Then comes control of environment— air, water and especially the new pollutives. Remember, too, the animals — they have a right to share in the health we want for ourselves.
Stresses are an essential part of being alive — but the art of life is to arrange rules that stress does not become strain. A healthy organism is extremely tough. It can withstand overwork, fatigue, anxiety, microbes — up to a certain point, of course.
A personal belief— the most important element in a healthy life is some faith in life which mobilizes our faculties and makes the most of them.
Perhaps these health principles seem too theoretical, but they are golden rules which can stretch our powers and help us in our fight against harmful genes.

Существуют ли правила для здорового образа жизни? Очень мало. Формула для здоровой жизни, не может быть выражена словами - её можно только практиковать. Некоторые люди нарушают так называемые принципы здоровья каждый день, и уходят от наказания, а некоторые следят за своим здоровьем и не живут больше в конце концов.
Почти нет стоящих правил, но есть некоторые принципы, которые противодействовать вредному влиянию генов.
Этими принципами являются:
Любовь в детстве. Любовь родителей.
Другой принцип - здоровое питание - со всеми элементами в правильной пропорции.
Следующий - контроль окружающей среды: воздуха, воды и особенно новых загрязнителей. Помните также о животных - они имеют право на долю в здоровье, которую мы хотим для себя.
Стрессы - являются неотъемлемой частью жизни живых, - но искусство жизни заключается в организации правил, чтобы стресс не довел до деформации. Здоровый организм является чрезвычайно сильным. Он может выдерживать перегрузки, усталость, беспокойство, микробы - до определенного момента, конечно.
Личные убеждения - самым важным элементом здорового образа жизни является какая-то вера в жизнь, которая мобилизует наши и использует их.
Возможно, эти принципы здоровья покажутся слишком теоретическими, но это золотые правила, которые растянуть наши силы и нам в нашей борьбе против вредных генов.
