Question
Chapter 8, Problem 8.1CTDQ
To determine
The consequences of defining health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being; and the people that might favor or oppose this definition of health.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 8.1CTDQ
By defining health people know the exact meaning of being healthy that influence their professional as well as personal life.
Thus, people that are really concerned about their health are in favor of this definition of health.
Explanation of Solution
Health is the condition of biological body which is a state of complete physical, metal and social well being. By defining health, it gives proper elaboration of being healthy. People will be analyzed on this basis. It includes complete physical as well as mental well being. Social well being is also included in it so that people are well mannered socially for complete health.
The people that are really concerned about their health will be in the favor of this definition of health. By doing this, they will know that mental as well as social well being is also necessary for being healthy.
The people that are not concerned about their health will not be in the favor of this definition. They think that only physical well being is necessary for health. They are not socially active.

In place number one for the majority of the World's water, we have the oceans. In place number two, we have ice. Neither one is available to us for drinking water at this point. Amazingly enough, in place number three is groundwater before lakes and streams. Water has led to many problems in the history of California, the United States, and even the world.
