Pronounced:
Means:
Wholesome; healthful; promoting health

Eating fruits and vegetables are salutary for your health. They give you energy.
Literary use:
By Virginia Woolf
Thought and theory must precede all salutary action; yet action is nobler in itself than either thought or theory.

Salut (reminds of) = Salute ( a cheer )
ary (sounds like) = airy – air ( good for health )
