Introduction
WHO
(1941), defined health as a state of complete physical, mental, and social
well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. WHO argued that this definition has been subject to controversy, in
particular as lacking operational value and because of the problem created by
use of the word "complete", it remains the most enduring. According
to Merriam-Webster dictionary of health (2001), health is the level of functional or metabolic
efficiency of a living being. In humans, it is the general condition of a person's mind, body and
spirit, usually meaning to be free from illness, injury or pain as in "good health" or "healthy".
Health
can be defined as a relative state in which one is able to function well
physically, mentally, socially, and spiritually in order to express the full
range of one's unique potentialities within the environment in which one is
living. It furthermore, health is primarily a measure of each person's ability
to do and become what he wants to become.
The
maintenance and promotion of health is achieved through different combination
of physical, mental, and social well-being, together
sometimes referred to as the "health
triangle". (Nutter 2003). The WHO's 1986 Ottawa Charter
for Health Promotion further stated that health is not
just a state, but also a resource for everyday life, not the objective of
living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources,
as well as physical capacities.
Wilkinson,
2006 asserted that health impact can be positive or negative. A positive health
impact is an effect which contributes to good health or to improving health.
For example, having a sense of control over one’s life and having choices is
known to have a beneficial effect on mental health and well being, making
people feel “healthier” Wilkinson (2006). A negative health impact has the
opposite effect, causing or contributing to ill health. For example, working in
unhygienic or unsafe conditions or spending a lot of time in an area with poor
air quality is likely to have an adverse effect on physical health status.
Ajala
(2002) opined that health influences one’s way of life; it improves personal
efficiency; it facilitates the attachment of personal goals. He went further to
state that the scenario of health awareness consequences therefore, is one
passport to improve healthy living, development and economic prosperity of the
society.
