Get Healthy

Girl Reading

   "The first wealth is health," wrote Ralph Waldo Emerson

   We agree, Mr. Emerson, and so do the folks at KidsHealth.

   With separate areas for kids, teens and parents, KidsHealth strives to provide honest, accurate and understandable information to those who want to keep their minds and bodies fit as a fiddle. Created by The Nemours Foundation, physicians and other health experts review all the site's content before it's published.

   Take a cyber trip to KidsHealth's teen section and learn about acne myths (no, chocolate and greasy foods do not cause acne), how much sleep teens actually need (around 9 hours), or find a recipe for lemon chicken salad. The site also tackles more serious issues like how to help a friend who cuts and how to deal with depression. And if you have a health question that you're too embarrassed to ask, chances are you'll find an answer in the "Experts Answers on …" section.

   Go ahead and let KidsHealth be your reliable source for getting and staying healthy rich.

P.S. Want to see what other teens are saying about health issues? Check out Teen Ink's "You and Your Health" section.
