Health

Health is a standard of functional or metabolic efficiency of a living being. In humans, it is the common condition of a person's mind, body and spirit, usually meaning to be free from sickness, injury or pain (as in "good health" or "healthy"). The World Health Organization (WHO) described health in the broader sense in 1946 as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing and not simply the absence of disease or infirmity." However this definition has been subject to controversy, particularly as lacking operational value and because of the issue created by use of the word "complete", it remains the most enduring. Classification techniques like the WHO Family of International Classifications, including the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD), are generally useful to define and measure the components of health.

The upkeep and promotion of health is achieved through different combination of physical, mental, and social wellbeing, together sometimes referred to as the "health triangle". The WHO's 1986 Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion further mentioned that health is not only a state, but also "a resource for daily life, not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, and also physical capacities."

Organized activities to prevent or treat health issues and promote good health in humans are carried out by health care providers. Programs with regard to animal health are covered by the veterinary sciences. The word "healthy" is also popular in the context of many types of non-living organizations and their impacts for the advantage of people, such as in the sense of healthy communities, healthy cities or healthy environments. As well as health care interventions and a person's surroundings, several other aspects are proven to impact the health status of individuals, including their background, lifestyle, and economic and social conditions; they are known as "determinants of health".

Following are most important things in Health:

Beauty

Beauty (also known as prettiness, loveliness or comeliness) is a characteristic of a person, animal, place, object, or idea that provides a perceptual experience of joy or satisfaction. Beauty is studied within aesthetics, sociology, social psychology, and culture. An "ideal beauty" is really an entity that is admired, or possesses features widely attributed to beauty in a specific tradition, for perfection.

The experience of "beauty" usually involves the interpretation of some entity as being in balance and harmony with nature, which may lead to emotions of attraction and emotional happiness. Because this is a subjective experience, it is often said that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

There is evidence that perceptions of beauty are evolutionarily determined, that things, aspects of persons and landscapes considered beautiful are typically seen in conditions likely to offer improved survival of the perceiving human's genes.

Diet

In nutrition, diet is the amount of food taken by a person or other organism. Eating habits are the habitual decisions an individual or culture can make when choosing what foods to eat. With the word diet, is usually implied the use of specific intake of nutrition for health or weight-management factors. Even though humans are omnivores, each culture and each individual holds some food preferences or some food taboos, because of individual preferences or ethical factors. Personal dietary choices may be more or less healthy.

Suitable nutrition requires ingestion and absorption of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and food energy by means of carbohydrates, proteins, vegetable oils, and fats. Dietary habits and choices perform an important role in quality of life, health and longevity, and can define civilizations and play a role in religion.

Disease

A disease can be an abnormal condition affecting the body of an organism. It is often construed to be a medical problem associated with particular indications and signs. It may be caused by external factors, such as infectious disease, or it may be caused by inner complications, such as autoimmune diseases. In people, "disease" is normally used more broadly to refer to any problem that causes pain, dysfunction, distress, social issues, or death to the person afflicted, or similar problems for those in contact with the person. Within this wider sense, it sometimes includes injuries, disabilities, disorders, syndromes, infections, isolated symptoms, deviant behaviors, and atypical variations of structure and function, while in other contexts as well as for other uses these could be considered distinguishable categories. Diseases usually affect people not just physically, but also emotionally, as contracting and living with several diseases can alter one's perspective on life, and their personality.

Death because of disease is called death by natural causes. There are four major types of disease: pathogenic disease, deficiency disease, hereditary disease, and physiological disease.

Diseases can also be classified as communicable and non-communicable disease.

Fitness

Fitness comprises two relevant concepts: general fitness (a state of health and wellbeing), and particular fitness (a task-oriented classification based on the ability to perform specific aspects of sports or occupations). Fitness is normally achieved through proper nutrition, exercise, and enough rest.

Fitness has been defined as a group of attributes or characteristics that people have or achieve that relates to the ability to perform physical exercise.The above mentioned explanation from Physical Activity and Health: A study of the Surgeon General is the most common currently used definition of physical fitness. It was originally used by Caspersen and has been used extensively.An alternative definition by Howley and Frank that gives additional detailed information is: Physical fitness is a state of well-being with low risk of earlier health problems and energy to participate in various physical activities. When either is a good definition, most experts agree that physical fitness is both multidimensional and hierarchical.

In previous years, fitness was generally defined as the capacity to carry out the day?s activities without undue fatigue. However, as automation increased leisure time, changes in life styles following the industrial revolution rendered this definition insufficient. In current contexts, physical fitness is known as a measure of the body?s ability to function efficiently and effectively at work and leisure activities, to be healthy, to resist hypokinetic disorders, and to fulfill urgent situations.

Health is metabolic efficiency. Sickness is metabolic inefficiency. No one is totally healthy or completely sick. All of us is a unique combination of health and sickness. And each of us has a special combination of abilities and disabilities, both emotional and physical.
