Staying Health='s Quality Of Life

We all know someone who has sustained a fall that involved broken bones. Depending on the injury, that person's lifestyle can change from inconvenienced to drastically limited. Often the fall is due to osteoporosis where first the bone breaks and then causes the fall.Osteoporosis, a drastic thinning of the bone, can be prevented with exercise, Vitamin D, and Calcium supplements.
Colds, Flus, and Pneumonias can incapacitate people for brief periods or for extended times. The elderly are at risk and unfortunately can succumb to a fatal outcome.
These bouts with illness can be avoided by preventing cross-contamination when handling food and using restrooms.Hands free dispensers are used in restrooms and kitchens for this purpose.
Missed school days and workdays cost money. Food recalls due to contamination are also costly. Medical and hospital bills can be expensive. Home-bound patients miss social events. Add to this pain and suffering and you have a good case for prevention. So staying healthy definitely promotes a good quality of life.
