Health & Diseases: Overview

Health is generally defined as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. It's about how well the body and mind function together and adapt to the demands of life. Good health is influenced by a variety of factors including genetics, lifestyle choices, access to healthcare, environment, and social determinants like education and income.

Diseases, on the other hand, are conditions that impair normal functioning of the body or mind, and they typically present with specific symptoms. Diseases can result from a variety of causes such as infections, genetic disorders, environmental factors, or lifestyle-related behaviors. They can be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term), and may range in severity from mild to life-threatening.
