Definition of body and main factor to maintain good health is ‘state of equilibrium’. To keep this state various do’s and don’ts are enlisted. The lifestyle, diet and conduct which keeps us healthy have been described in detail. Physical properties of body parts and organs give a clear description about the nature of body constituents and their linkage with various food substances. This information may be used to maintain the equilibrium of body and mind even at micro level. There is description of a symposium to have a discussion for deciding the fact that during intra-uterine life, which organ appears first and when? At this point the duration of life span of a healthy person has been considered hundred years.
