Health and personal care

Health is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease. Personal care, therefore, involves a holistic approach that aims to maintain and promote this balance on all three fronts. Care extends to daily management of one's well-being, addressing life's challenges, and preventing disease.

• Physical well-being: physical condition, absence of disease and infirmity.
• Mental well-being: psychological and emotional balance.
• Social well-being: the ability to create satisfying relationships and adapt to different social situations.

• Holistic approach: involves caring for all aspects of health (physical, mental, and social), not just physical illnesses.
• Prevention: adopting healthy lifestyles and a proactive attitude to prevent disease and maintain balance.
• Adaptation: having the ability to face and adapt to environmental changes and challenges.
• Responsibility: it is a fundamental right, but also an individual duty to preserve it.
