I have included these under one heading, not because they are individually less important than the previous headings, but because they are more straightforward and fairly easily understood. Paul Bragg was one of the icons of the wellness industry and covered these subjects very well in his writings.

Exercise covers not just aerobic exercise but weight bearing exercise. This is very important in the building of a healthy immune system. Adequate rest is needed to allow all our systems to recover.
