Be Proud of Your Body

Abstract

Overall health of the population is determined by people’s income, education, employment and housing, as well as a combination of preventive and rehabilitative approaches and services. Making a positive impact on the health of individuals is the common goal among partners in the continuum of wellness promotion, illness prevention and health care. Health can be defined as the physical, social, psychological and spiritual well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Wellness is an active lifestyle that incorporates several components that affects health (physical, mental and social wellbeing and not only the absence of disease). We need a healthy lifestyle to build up a healthy immune system and to avoid disease.
