This is because you remember her birthday; moreover you have bought this gift for her with money which you have earned by the sweat of your own labour. But she exhorts you repeatedly that, although it is a good thing to be able to save whatever surplus money you can each month, you should never skimp on taking care of your own health. You should spend on whatever nutrition supplement that you require and should not thrift over these.
