A healthy mind and body could express love in a great way. The person becomes available to extend oneself in the improvement of others(love) because he has the strength to do it.

Hi Third P.
No, health is not more important than love.
I definitely do not have health, even though I am young. However, I do have love, and that is what makes life worth living.
I first have the love of God. That has always been there, and will always be there for all time. After that, I have the love of my husband & many friends. I even have the love of my pets, which gives me great joy.
My body may not be well, but I would not trade places, ever. If I were offered good health in exchange for no love, I would never take that offer.
Love is everything. It is important to be loved; and it is important to love others. We share this life together. We will all eventually lose our health; but we don't necessarily need to lose love.
I will have love for however long I am allowed to live on this earth. I would not give that up for anything.
Peace.

Being healthy is not just a means for one to live long; it is also of much aesthetic value to be healthy. The idea of being healthy brings with it a certain satisfaction associated with being part of the finer specimens among the human race.
Love is the emotion that binds us together. Without the strong parental bonds with their children, we would most likely not have survived. I suppose a couple in love is also aesthetically favourable, apart from it being a means to ecstasy for the individuals involved. However this is not as invaluable as being healthy and there are other means to be happy. Some people (like myself) even enjoy living alone.
On a personal note: I'm incapable of love and hate (this isn't an opinion), so I'm happy being the lonely heath-freak that I am.

Great question !
I assume you mean by "health" a physically healthy human body that will last for only about 75 years here on average.
Of all of the Supreme Values, love is the highest and has eternal significance. God is love. Love is the desire to do true good to others.
A personal example: When I was a teenager and an atheist back then, I visited with my family an aunt who was dying of cancer in the hospital. She was about age 75 and very skinny and sick from the cancer. Rather than complain about her terrible condition, she smiled at us and was really lovingly concerned about our lives then ! That left a positive impression with me. Even back then, as a dumb atheist, I knew that love was more real than rotting human bodies. At ages 36 and 37 years old, I was then experienced enough and ready for personal God-consciousness and given in Spirit to fully know God and Jesus as One Combined Infinite Spirit here upon us all.

Yah.Certainly health is more important than love.If you are not in good health, there is no way to think about the love. Love needs good place like heart to stay back,but if the heart is not in good health,how it can be? So, the health is so important than the love.

ah, be careful what you wish for! Health is the most important and by grace, love will come later. I have seen so many people terminally ill with the love of their family/friends around them, however, if they were healthy, would they show that they love us as much? Interesting question. It is comforting to be loved, we all require it in our journey in life. When ill, people feel sorry for us, want to help us, are afraid of loosing us, but are we able to really appreciate the gesture if we are sick?

Love is more important, because when you are in love your emotions create energy and that energy is great for sex and when your body is active, then you are become more heathly.
Including that energy from love, makes you feel emotionally happy and people's emotions have an important role in health.

they are interlocked. But ones health will allow one to live on until that day when love is breached. Once love is in the picture, ones health is intricately related to it. Health alone, is cool, but health with love is paradise.

Hello:
The Short version is that you can't really enjoy love with out health and your health isn't worth too much with out love.
I hope this helps.

They are both important but if you are loved then you are more likely to be healthy as there will be someone to care for you.
