Restaurant dining and eating out in Clark Pampanga: What is Health?
May 2,2011
Ask around to your neighbors and friends what the word health means and you will get a multitude of different responses. We know that the word is a noun and that we are all willing to toast to your health. But what does health mean? The word itself comes from an old English term called hale. We recognize the term in use with hale and hearty from the same source.
The dictionary defines health as, “the general condition of the body or mind with reference to soundness, vitality and vigor: good health vs. poor health,” which means the general condition of a person in all aspects. The Google dictionary states it simply as, “The state of being free from illness or injury.”
Health typically describes how you feel. Although, in 1986, the World Health Organization (WHO), stated that health is “a resource for everyday life, not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities.” What we do realize is that health is achieved by a combination of physical and mental well-being. Many, but not all, include social well-being as an integral component of health, referring to the Health Triangle as described below, stating that if one section of the triangle is affected, they all are:
Physical Health:
• Keeping fit
• Balanced diet and weight
• Genetics
• Grooming habits
• Avoiding drugs, tobacco and alcohol
• Enough sleep
Mental Health:
• Thinking and decision making skills
• Learning and adapting to change
• Problem solving
• Coping with stress
Social Health:
• Family relationships
• Relationships with friends
• Working in groups
• Handling disagreements
• Recognizing the need for help
What determines our health is not always dictated by our biology and the choices we have made, or lifestyle, but are also influenced by other determination’s such as our environment and availability to adequate healthcare.
The factors that make up the quality of our health are many and quite varied. However, the number one factor in determining and maintaining health is the quality of water especially for infants and children in underdeveloped countries. The physical environment of an individual includes the air quality as well water and open space. Studies have concluded that a lack of natural space in city neighborhoods may factor in childhood obesity, although the sedentary lifestyles and quantity of nutritious food consumed by the individuals must also be taken into account.
Economics are recognized as factors in the health status of individuals, as studies have shown that those with a higher standard of living are more apt to take advantage of preventative care and earlier treatment for any health concerns. Waiting until a mild concern becomes a problem is more likely to occur in economically depressed areas.
Genetics and family history perhaps play the biggest role in preventative care for the long term. Some diseases and certainly the risk for cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular health run along family lines and screening tests for these risks, rely heavily on family histories.
Although the determining factors of health may change with social norms, the individual meaning of personal health really boils down to – how do you feel? So the next time someone asks you how you are, you’ll know exactly how to respond. And when a toast is given to your health, be sure to say thank you.
