Abstract

Routine health check-up can help to find problems early for better treatment and cure. Balanced diet and proper life style would keep our body running like a well-tuned engine, which would prevent diseases, suffering, morbidity and mortality in the long run. So it became customary for everyone to have a yearly check-up even if someone is feeling perfectly well.

The paper deals with routine physicals, screening tests, and good health tips for healthy & asymptomatic adults.
