Even if one has amassed a huge amount of wealth, it proves to be futile exercise if he or she doesn’t maintain good health, Ashwini Kumar Choubey, Minister of State for Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, said while delivering a speech at the Annual Healthcare Summit held in New Delhi.
Speaking on this occasion, he cited five elements of which a human body is made of and what role does our environment play to keep us healthy.
“Human body is made of five elements— kshiti, jal, pawak, gagan and samira. These five elements are a part of environment & nature which play an important role in nourishing human health. Environment protects human being in its own ways and it must not be challenged at any cost,” he said.
