      The concept of health is multifaceted and can be defined from various perspectives:

      1. Biomedical Definition: Health is viewed as the absence of disease or illness. This definition focuses on physiological and pathological aspects of health, emphasizing the body's functioning and absence of symptoms.

      2. Holistic Definition: Health is seen as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease. This definition considers the interconnectedness of various aspects of health and emphasizes overall well-being and quality of life.

      3. Public Health Definition: Health is defined in terms of population health outcomes and the impact of social, economic, and environmental factors on health. This definition underscores the importance of health equity, disease prevention, and promotion of health at the community level.

      4. Behavioral Definition: Health is conceptualized as the ability to adapt and self-manage in the face of physical, social, and emotional challenges. This definition highlights the role of individual behaviors and lifestyle choices in maintaining health.

      5. Functional Definition: Health is defined based on an individual's ability to perform daily activities and roles effectively, taking into account physical, cognitive, and emotional capacities.

      Each definition offers a unique perspective on health, reflecting the complexity and multidimensionality of the concept. Recognizing these diverse definitions can inform comprehensive approaches to promoting and maintaining health across different contexts and populations.
