View health from different perspectives

Health is often equated with the absence of disease and control of key indicators such as blood sugar and blood pressure. A patient is considered healthy if they do not exhibit any signs or symptoms of injury or disease.

From a different perspective, health is a dynamic state of balance, a reflection of the coordinated functioning of the interrelated organs and cells in our bodies, and self-healing systems that are functioning effectively.
