How is health defined?
Health Education Health 100 Version 3 / Definition and Concepts of Health
"The Oxford English Dictionary defines health as the state of being free from sickness, injury, disease, or bodily conditions, but health is more complex than this definition suggests. The way people define health depends on individual perceptions, religious beliefs, cultural values, social norms, and social class. Health includes social, psychological, and physical components."
