1-"Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the
absence of disease or infirmity." “A resource for everyday life, not the goal of living. Health is a
positive concept that emphasizes social and personal resources, as well as physical abilities.
This means that health is a resource to support an individual's role in society at large, rather
than an end in itself. A healthy lifestyle provides the means to lead a full life with meaning and
purpose.
In 2009, researchers publishing in The LancetTrusted Source defined health as a body's ability
to adapt to new threats and illnesses.
They base this definition on the idea that in recent decades modern science has made
significant strides in understanding diseases by understanding how they work, discovering new
ways to slow or stop them, and recognizing that absence of pathology may not be possible. .

affect health. Other times, an environmental trigger can cause a disease in a person who has a
higher genetic risk for a particular disease.
ºGenetic factors
A person is born with a variety of genes. In some people, an unusual genetic pattern or change
can lead to a less than optimal level of health. People can inherit genes from their parents that
increase the risk of certain health conditions.
