Keep your feet warm......

Exe ta pothia sou zesta
Ti kefali sou kria
To stomaki sou athyano
Yiatro ne exies xria

Keep you feet warm
Your head cold
Your stomach empty
You will never need a doctor

Many Kytherian sayings were based on a powerful belief in preventative medicine.

The three "prescriptions" above WILL keep you in good health.

Not allowing chills to occur by exposure to cold, keeping the brain well-ventilated, and not over-eating - are all designed to ensure that we will "ecatostisi" - live to be a hundred.

I will be duplicating this entry in Home Remedies - because many Kytherian Home remedies are prescriptions for preventitive medicine.

Dont forget -

Keep you feet warm
Your head cold
Your stomach empty
You will never need a doctor.
