Health means that a person is in a good physical, mental and social state, including physical health and mental health.
The traditional concept of health mainly refers to a person's good physiological function, without disease or pain. The World Health Organization puts forward that "health is not only the absence of physical diseases, but also the moral health with good mental health and social adaptability." Health is one of the basic rights of human beings, and it has increasingly become an important symbol of social development and progress. Health is the basis of quality of life and an important aspect of human self-awakening. Health is the best state of life, and health has rich and profound connotations.
What are the factors that affect health?
The World Health Organization reports that health and longevity depend on the following factors:
Self-care accounts for 60%, and medical conditions account for 8%.
Genetic factors account for 15%, and climate factors account for 7%.
Social factors account for 10%
The report places great emphasis on strengthening health education, health protection and health promotion, and advocates self-care. This new concept requires people to shift their attention from paying attention to treatment (not to say that treatment is not important) to active prevention and health care, and from relying on doctors to taking control of their own health destiny.
