Keeping Healthy the Natural Way

There is a popular adage that says that health is wealth hence a healthy nation is a wealthy nation. Despite the social and economic prowess of any individual, when health is impaired, everything is affected. Little wonder why most organizations do not take a flimsy look at the health of their personnel. They spend lots of money on healthcare services of their personnel and their family members in a bid to ensure that the people are in the right frame of mind to enhance their productivity. Many nations of the world spend lots of money on healthcare services. In African, money spent only on combating malaria is enough for other landmark developmental projects. To achieve the United Nations millennium Development Goals (MDGs) on health, many donor agencies spent whooping amount of money in Africa and other developing nations of the world to ensure health for all by the year 2015. In the advanced nations, government is spending billions of dollars to maintain health of her citizenry while individuals are paying large sums of money to obtain health insurance cover for themselves and their families. Many NGOs like Bill Gate Foundation, Carter Foundation, etc are donating fabulously towards the health of folks in the developing worlds.
Despite all these efforts, the health of a greater number of the populace is deteriorating by the day. The effort of medical science is helping so much but has not given a perfect answer to the overall health need of man on the planet earth. The question now is how can we achieve perfection in health in this millennium? In my opinion, the application of natural practices that build up our health over time is an answer to the menace of health complications reported in our hospitals on daily base.
The feeding habit of many individuals affect their health sooner or latter. People who are always eating over processed food stand a chance of certain degrees of health impairment that could result in continuous medication. To forestall some of this health complications, it advisable for adults to take lots of vegetables and fruits in their meals. The feeding pattern that encourages much consumption of sugar should also be avoided. It could be noted that much consumption of sugar will not only increase the body weight but also encourages the growth of cancerous cells in human. Fish could be a better alternative to meat in meals due to the high cholesterol level in it. Since proper feeding habit is synonymous to good health, it will be wise for individuals to eat appropriately and timely too. It could be recalled that one of the primary causes of ulcer of the colon is starvation. Eat well so that you can live well.
Many people have yielded themselves so much to stress that their health is affected in different ways. Many have decided not to have sufficient rest in a bid to make ends meet. This over working pattern directly results in body cells exhaustion and the submission of the entire body system to ailment. The demobilization of the body cell results in the mobilization of the disease vectors that were originally latent in the body . The cost of healthcare in many parts of the world could be adequately reduced if the citizenry will learn to manage stress properly at all times. In order to manage stress adequately and maintain good health, official jobs may not be done at private times at home while break/lunch times in offices should be utilized for the relaxation as it is meant for. Despite how busy a man will claim to be, it is necessary to observe rest which was instituted by God Himself after creation of the world on the seventh day. Rest so that you can live to enjoy the fruits of your labour.
Unfortunately, exercising is not in the program of many people in the society today. Their sedentary life style has resulted in overweight and obesity. Due to constant use of mobility, the entire body system is sick and the blood vessels are partially blocked while the joints are stiff. Exercise is a waste product expeller and joint lubricant. People who indulge in regular exercise are also very healthy. It is advisable therefore that people who are not use to exercise and wish to start should see their doctors for fitness test while they commence with less strenuous types.
To be healthy naturally entails happiness at all times. There is a popular biblical verse that says that “happiness is the life of the flesh while anger is the rottenness of the bone”. Clearly saying, men who are not always happy are simply punishing themselves as their anger is a leeway to ailments of different kinds. Happiness cannot be purchased but a conscious effort of man can guarantee continuous joy everyday .if bitterness of the mind exists in any individual, rancour and animosity equally follows. The existence of acrimony in a man’s life can result in the malfunctioning of many of the internal organs of the body due to the secretion of some poisonous hormones that can be cancerous. If health is to be maintained the natural way, joy ought to be flowing like a river in our lives.
Despite the conscious efforts made by anybody to feed properly, relax adequately, exercise properly, keep a happy mode and the environment is not clean, sickness is bound to come. Good sanitation is a prerequisite to good health. It is proper that our external and internal environment will be clean all the time so that we can forestall the breeding of disease vectors. From the foregoing discussions, it is possible to keep healthy the natural way. What do you think about it?

THE IMPACT OF COMPETITIVENESS ON SATELLITE TV SERVICES IN THE DEVELOPING WORLD

Ab initio, satellite TV services was only within the reach of privileged rich few in the society. Around late 1980s to mid 1990s, only the bourgeoisies were seen with very large diameter (about 2m) dishes pointing to the sky on their roof tops and at secluded areas around the courts in their compounds. Some of the dishes were fancifully designed plastics with nets while others were metallic and painted to protect them against rust. During this period, it takes a great resources and manpower to mount a satellite dish since crane trucks and fork lifts were used for carrying and mounting the dishes that receive signals mainly free from stations that transmit in Arabic and few English speaking stations. The paid satellite TV services were very few with large dishes as well. The ownership of the satellite TV dish at this time is a mark of affluence and a sign of distinction. 
Today, what used to be the pride of the wealthy in the society has become of little consequence to the poor and depraved among men. Thanks to satellite TV service proliferation and competitiveness among providers. It is a common phenomena to see very small apartments ( sometimes even mud houses) in the remote villages in some developing nations having very small dishes(about 0.35m diameter) hanging either on the wall or on small metallic poles (of about 2m high and 0.1m diameter) providing satellite TV services to the occupants of the houses. Some of the houses do not have dishes but specialized antennas for receiving signals from the base stations of their service providers.
Prior to this era of proliferation and competitiveness among satellite TV service providers, the cost of providing decoder, dish and other accessories needed for the working of the satellite TV was not less than $600 whereas the monthly subscription was about $100 for paid satellite TV services. This cost can only be afforded by high income level persons. It could be stated that the trend has reverted and spending as low as $50 during promotion periods can be able to afford a satellite TV connection whereas about $12 can be spent on monthly subscription. This development has made information to be at the reach of the folks with low income levels in the developing world.
Since many satellite TV providers are striving for mastery in the business world, they have introduced many innovations aimed at having edge over their competitors. These innovations which includes watching the satellite TV on the mobile phone everywhere you go, codes for controlling channels to ensure children are not endangered, recording services to ensure that telecasted programs can be stored and watched at convenience etc. have placed some providers at advantage over others and left customers the choice to migrate through providers at will.
The introduction of software to surf thousands of satellite TV stations over the internet with the computer at no service charge by some programmers have gone a long way to liberalize the satellite TV services hence, making the customer to be at freedom to decide how and when to use satellite TV service. Since the internet facility is not domicile in any country, the satellite TV services can now be view by customers at no service charge from around the world with internet facility. This has made information dissemination easy hence emancipation of the poor and mediocre from ignorance is imminent.
I believe that as technology continues to be dynamic, satellite TV service competitiveness will continue and the level of knowledge dissemination will increase. This will make it possible to achieve the UN millennium development goals among developing nations of the world.

  SATELLITE TV SERVICES AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
The proliferation of satellite television services in the latter part of the 20th century has undoubtedly impacted positively to the socio-economic development of the world. The satellite TV technology which was meant for advanced nations and the rich as a quick means of transmitting digital information to home television sets has come to the reach of the poor and lowly in the developing nations of the world.
The spread of satellite TV services in many countries of the world today has brought about socio-economic developments in the following areas:
1. Increase in revenue generation
2. Promotion of cultural values
3. Information dissemination I science and technological advancements
The revenue base of many nations has increased due to their ability to export different aspects of their cultural heritage via satellite TV networks. For instance, the Washington Post reported that international sales of American entertainment and software products totalled $60.2 billion in 1996, more than any US industry ( Washington Post, Oct 25, 1998, P. A01). The revenue accruing from the Nigerian entertainment industry the “Nollywood” is increasing by the day due to the demand for the firms from this industry in different parts of Africa, Europe and America. The South African satellite TV station (DSTV) is increasing the country’s earning via satellite TV coverage of most African countries. Jobs have been provided for hundreds of thousands of persons who are directly or indirectly employed by these stations as journalists, engineers, technician, advertisers, etc. The stations also pay different revenues and tax to the government .
With satellite TV , many cultures in the world are able to transmit their identities far and wide. This has made it possible for communities, government and non-governmental agencies to promote their ancient cultural heritages to all and sundry.
Lots of invaluable information about science and technology have been easily passed through satellite TV to viewers all over the world. For instance, the popular SARS, bird flu and at present the swine flu epidemics have been promptly telecasted by different satellite TV stations and appropriate precautionary measures handed down to travellers and other inhabitants of the globe on how to forestall attack of the pandemic.
In some parts of the world where tyranny by government has been on the increase, the continual criticism by opposition groups via popular satellite TV stations has helped to check the excesses of such government officials.
From this discussion, it will be nice for the critics of satellite TV services to have a rethink knowing well that its advantages are enormous. It is necessary for us to look at these advantages as enough reason for its promotion while we do our best to inculcate better moral virtues that will make the youths to shun the negative impacts of satellite TV programs.
