Twelve Everyday Health Rules–From 1908
I collect vintage health / wellness / fitness / physiology textbooks. While flipping through some of the books recently, I came across this wonderful set of everyday health rules. The list is from the first book in the series, Introductory Physiology and Hygiene, by H. W. Conn, Ph.D., published by Silver, Burdett and Company, in 1908. Most of the rules may be even more applicable today than they were over a century ago. Enjoy!
And don’t miss the wonderful ‘A 1930 Medical Record’ from Bob Coffield’s Health Care Law Blog.

For all of you who have asked – yes, this is the same book that appeared in the NIH MedlinePlus Magazine “Then & Now” feature. They saw this post and subsequently borrowed the book to include a photo of the list. What an honor!
