Good Health

Health: Even a couple of centuries ago, people looked upon ill-health or disease as a part of the life death cycle that had to be borne. In the middle of the 19th century that man realized that his way of living and the environment around him had an effect on his health. He realized that a lot of diseases could be prevented by simple things—safe drinking water, good sewage system and personal hygiene. We should know that these things affect our health.

What is Good Health:  Good health may mean different things to different people. In general, a person is said to be in good health if he is free from any disease—physical or mental—and can function effectively. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines health as follows: “Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. The body of a healthy person can adapt easily to changes in living conditions, weather, etc. It also takes stress well. A healthy person can enjoy life to the fullest.
