Air
Pure air is more important than food or water; it is the body's
most essential resource.
Proper breathing and pure air are fundamental to good health.
In order to have good blood, we must breathe well. Full, deep inspirations
of pure air which fill the lungs with oxygen, purify the blood. They
impart to it a bright color, and send it, a life-giving current, to every
part of the body. A good respiration soothes the nerves, stimulates
the appetite, and renders digestion more perfect; and it induces sound,
refreshing sleep.
