The word 'healthy' is always used as a qualifying adjective to designate those people who have a state of total or almost complete physical, psychological and social well-being. Being healthy means being in good condition not only physically but also at the mental level and at the level of human contact, that is, with the other members of society. Although the stage of complete health is certainly difficult to achieve due to the different complications and diseases that presents the current lifestyle, getting as close as possible to that state of well-being depends without a doubt on us themselves.
As is clear, the notion of 'healthy' or health is opposed to those of 'sick' or disease. While in one we find the presence of well-being in different levelsIn the other, we find the presence of complications and discomforts that can range from the most basic to the most difficult and complex.
Normally, throughout history the idea of being healthy has varied for humanity. In this sense, a few centuries ago a healthy person did not have the characteristics that a person currently considered healthy has. This has to do not only with the change in
trends in the physical image, if not also with the development of major improvements in the level and quality of life of the populations.Today, being healthy is normally understood as taking care of the body at the same time as the mind. This is basically accomplished through consumption from food healthy, low-fat and diverse, from exercising or physical activity constantly, from not resorting in excess to harmful habits such as tobacco, alcohol or drugs, from the development of a satisfactory and varied social life, from establishment from social relationships lasting, permanent consultation with doctors, etc.
