When you are feeling a little ill or not like yourself, the first thing many do is to type their symptoms into a Google search, which in return typically leads to them believing they have some form of cancer. Chances are, however, you don't have cancer, or Lyme disease or any other terrifying, life-threatening conditions. In most cases what you read about online that suggests you have poor health can, in reality, signify a complete healthy aliment. If you have been worried about an unusual symptom, your body might actually be giving you signs you're healthy. And if you exhibit any of these signs below, there's a good chance you are much healthier than you think.

Easily maintain a healthy weight.

One of the signs you're healthy is being able to maintain a healthy weight without going through any crash diets.

You cry.
