healthy/well

Hello Sir,

1. To keep Our backbone healthy.

Here "healthy" goes with the verb "keep" or "backbone". I mean "healthy" here is an adjective or an adverb.

Can I use "well" in place of "healthy"?

Thanks and regards.

I would call it an object complement-- adjective modifying backbone . You could also use well here because in this meaning (= healthy ) it is also an adjective.
