Update #5: Writing Expedition ✍️|| Staying Healthy

Introduction

Greetings to the kids and parents present here in the #steemkids&parents community, as I will be talking about the health of all, measures we should take to stay healthy and also the importance of staying healthy. Firstly I would highlight some terminologies associated with health, which am sure will help everyone.

What it means to stay healthy

The term "healthy" has so many meanings but it is all related to the body, so I will give the definitions I have.

• Health
  This is a healthy state of being free from all kinds of diseases. We are aware of this definition as it is somehow used, when we come across with the word.

• Healthy
  This means having a good health in the body and mind and also free from diseases.
  
  
  We do come across chubby people and when they are told that they look fat, their response is always "no I am not fat, I am healthy". So being healthy is adding up, and also looking nice based on this term.

• Staying healthy
  Now from the definitions given, I would say that staying healthy is a way or means of taking measures in order to be safe from all kinds of diseases.
