PHYSICAL HEALTH

Physical Health

Health can be defined in many ways. It may be described as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease. (World Health Organisation). 

Whilst physical ill-health, mental ill-health and social well-being is covered by other sections in this website, on this page we focus on the role of exercise, sleep and diet. These elements of physical health can have a bearing on the other aspects of health - and vice-versa.
