Staying healthy, for most of us, follows the same basic strategy — moderation, moderation, moderation. Still, it’s no guarantee that something won’t afflict you sooner or later. When you get sick, it can wreak havoc financially and otherwise, and having a support system becomes critical. While researchers try their hardest to cure ailments (for the greater good or personal gain), it is up to us to be smart patients, and demand for what’s best for us.
