- Definition
- A state of complete physical, social and mental well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Health is a resource of everyday life, not the object of living. It is positive concept emphasising social and personal resources as well as physical capabilities. It is recognised, however, that health has many dimensions (anatomical, physiological, and mental) and is largely culturally defined.
