This document discusses the definition of health and factors that influence it. It defines health as the overall well-being of the body, mind, and relationships. Two factors used to evaluate health are life expectancy and quality of life. Health is influenced by physical, mental/emotional, and social aspects. Maintaining physical health involves diet, exercise, sleep, and medical care. Mental/emotional health relates to being mentally alert and learning from mistakes. Social health involves having good relationships and respecting others. A person's position on the health continuum can be impacted by their decisions around risk factors they can control like physical activity, diet, substance use, and safety practices.
