Health means that a person is in a good physical, mental and social state. Health includes two aspects.
First, the main organs are disease-free, the body shape develops well and evenly, the physiological functions of various systems of the human body are good, and physical activity and labor ability are strong. This is the most basic requirement for health.
Second, it has strong disease resistance and can adapt to the effects of environmental changes, various physiological stimuli and pathogenic factors on the body.
The traditional concept of health is "disease-free health", while the modern concept of health is overall health. The World Health Organization puts forward that "health is not only the absence of physical diseases, but also mental health, good social adaptation and morality".
Health is English, so is health status. In some dictionaries, "health" is usually simply defined as "the body is in normal operation and there is no disease". This is the traditional concept of health. Usually, we really regard diseases as the disorder of the body, which leads to functional decline, impaired quality of life (mainly physical pain) or premature death.
In Ci Hai, the concept of health is: organs and systems are well developed, functioning normally, physically strong, energetic and working efficiently.
It is usually measured by anthropometry, physical examination and various physiological indicators. "This formulation than" health is no disease, but still treat people as biological organisms.
Because although it puts forward the concept of "labor efficiency", it still doesn't treat people as social people. The understanding of health is recognized as correct in the era of biomedical model.
