Health / Longevity - Healthy babies give the future a fighting chance. Well-being beats vanity any day.
Agree. A healthy people keep the state strong; longevity of the regime seals policies, breeds loyalty, and outlasts rivals.
Indeed, health and longevity are the true legions of a people; weak bodies lose future battles. Remember, prevention and steady habits win more battles than vanity.
I agree that healthy offspring endure longer. Natural selection favors those best fitted to their environments, so care for health and the conditions that shape it helps steer heredity.
