Regular Check-Ups
Guard Your Health
If you own a car, you probably take
it to a garage for a regular check-up
every 1,000, 5,000, or 10,000 miles—or
somewhere in between. Such care pays
off in better performance and longer
life for your automobile.
That’s because the mechanic will often
find a defect that needs repair, or will
perform some other service to make
your car operate more efficiently.
Regular medical check-ups can do
somewhat the same thing for your body,
although you probably never think of
it that way. And, after all, it’s even
more important to take care of your
health than your car because, in the
long run, regular check-ups pay off in
better health and longer life.
Let Your Doctor Decide
Your doctor may find some defect
that can be corrected, give treatment
that will ward off difficulties, or offer
advice that will help you enjoy a hap
pier and healthier life. Doctors agree
that many serious ailments, if detected
early, can be checked and even cured.
For that reason alone, it pays to see
your doctor regularly for a thorough
check-up. How often you visit him
depends to some extent on your age,
and your general physical condition. The
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company
suggests that you let your doctor decide.
Maybe you are feeling fine, and may
be your friends do tell you that “you
never looked better,” but only your
doctor can help you stay that way. So
make it a point to go for regular check
ups—and see that everyone in your
household—young and old—does it too!
