Introducing an article on health

Articles are wonderful source of information and I am an avid reader of editorials published on the internet. So today I’d take this opportunity to talk about a health article that I’ve read few days back.

What it was?

It was an How To article about the ways we can shed some weight and look charming. It talked about the benefits of balanced diet, how to keep cholesterol under control and most importantly the article shared a 30 days diet-plan (about what to eat and what not to) to look lean & healthy. Undoubtedly, the content was powerful and engaging.

Where do you read it?

I read it on the internet! The write-up was published on healthline.com – world’s largest health blog. Lisa Henry (who authored the article) has beautifully crafted all the information using charts and diagrams. And, it was so easy to fathom.

Why you read it?

As you know, we are currently reeling under the lockdowns. Because of more sedentary lifestyle, I gained more weight in the past couple of months and so I was looking for some useful tips on how to remove excess fat from my body. Luckily, I stumbled upon Lisa’s health article and read it from start till the end.

How you felt about it?

I felt more confident after reading her article. Honestly, I was demotivated earlier and thought there were no easy ways to physical fitness. But her article opened my eyes. From that day onwards, I started following every single tip shared in her health column.

Concluding the cue card

In the end I’d just say that… I am thankful to the author of the article who made me realised that I had to constantly deconstruct(change) my eating habits to take care of my body. After all, Health is wealth..!
