I know I did mentioned blogging about the little health knowledge that I have learn daily. But sometimes when blogging about other things, I seem to get carried away and end up not including them all in a post.
Instead, I'll make an update that captures all the tiny yet relevant health tips that I have accrued. I hope there are readers out there like you who are reading it. Health is something we should take charge of and not leave to fate. I am taking charge of mine in this year by watching what I eat, how much I eat, and what to eat. I hope you're with me as well.
