The determinants of health include environmental factors, biological factors and lifestyle factors.
1. Environmental factors: In the social environment, the change of political system, the development of social economy and the progress of culture and education are closely related to human health. For example, economic development brings waste water, waste gas, noise and waste residue, which is extremely harmful to human health. Bad customs and harmful ideology also hinder human health. Therefore, if people want to be healthy, they must make unremitting efforts to improve, beautify, purify and optimize the environment.
2. Biological factors: Among the biological factors, the most important factors affecting human health are genetic factors and psychological factors. Modern medicine has found that there are not only two or three thousand kinds of genetic diseases, but also the incidence rate is as high as 20%. Therefore, it is of special significance to attach importance to the influence of heredity on health. Negative psychological factors can cause many diseases, and positive psychological state is a necessary condition to maintain and improve health. A positive and optimistic attitude can stand the test of victory and failure. In a word, mental state is a reflection of social environment and living environment, and it is an important factor affecting health.
3. Lifestyle factor: Lifestyle refers to a series of living habits, living systems and life consciousness formed by people under the long-term influence of certain culture, nationality, economy, society, customs and family. In the long process of human development, although it has long been recognized that lifestyle is related to health, various infectious diseases that endanger human life have always been the main cause of human death, and the influence of lifestyle factors on health has always been ignored.
