Determinants of health

The LaLonde report suggests that there are four general determinants of health including human biologyenvironmentlifestyle, and healthcare services.[5] Thus, health is maintained and improved not only through the advancement and application of health science, but also through the efforts and intelligent lifestyle choices of the individual and society.
The Alameda County Study examines the relationship between lifestyle and health. It has found that people can improve their health via exercise, enough sleep, maintaining a healthy weight, limitingalcohol use, and avoiding smoking.[6]
A major environmental factor affecting health is water quality, especially for the health of infants and children in developing countries.[7]
Studies shows that developed countries, the lack of neighborhood recreational space that includes the natural environment leads to lower levels of neighborhood satisfaction and higher levels of obesity; therefore, lower overall well being.[8] Therefore, the positive psychological benefits of natural space in urban neighborhoods should be taken into account in public policy and land use.
According to the World Health Organization, the main determinants of health include the social and economic environment, the physical environment and the person's individual characteristics and behaviors.[9] Generally, the context in which an individual lives is of great importance on his life quality and health status. The social and economic environment are key factors in determining the health status of individuals given the fact that higher education levels are linked with a higher standard of life as well as a higher income. Generally, people who finish higher education are more likely to get a better job and therefore are less prone to stress by comparing to individuals with low education levels.[citation needed]
The physical environment is perhaps the most important factor that should be considered when classifying the health status of an individual. This includes factors such as clean water and air, safehouses, communities and roads all contribute to good health.[9]
Genetics are also part of the system based on which the health of the population can be established. Genetics are closely related to the habits and behaviors individuals develop during their life, particularly in terms of lifestyle choices. For instance, people who come from families whose members had a more active lifestyle and followed healthier diets, non-smoking and non-drinking are more likely to follow the same pattern in their life. The example set by the family as well as the relationship with friends and family can have a great impact on one's general health. Nonetheless, genetics may play a role in the manner in which people cope with stress.
Moreover, the World Health Organization lists a wide range of other factors that can influence the well being of a person. According to WHO, the gender, social support networks and health services in terms of both quality and access to them are to be considered as health determinants. Access to health care is one of the large issues of the nowadays society, maybe even greater than the quality of the service. Individuals in developing countries are more prone to suffer from different health conditions because their access to the health care system is restricted mostly from financial reasons.
Although many individuals are often criticized for not taking good care of their health based on the presumption that the mirror's of one's personality is one's health.,[10] it is now accepted that there are many factors that have a significant impact on one's health and which cannot be controlled.

Health is the general condition of a person in all aspects. It is also a level of functional and/or metabolic efficiency of an organism, often implicitly human. From Google dictionary: "The state of being free from illness or injury".[1]
The Caduceus.
At the time of the creation of the World Health Organization (WHO), in 1948, health was defined as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity".[2][3]
A handful of publications have focused specifically on the definition of health and its evolution in the first 6 decades. Some of them highlight its lack of operational value and the problem created by use of the word "complete." Others declare the definition, which has not been modified since 1948, "simply a bad one."[4]
In 1986, the WHO, in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, said that health is "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." Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications (WHO-FIC), which is composed of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) also define health.
Overall health is achieved through a combination of physical, mental, and social well-being, which, together is commonly referred to as the Health Triangle.

A U.S. woman charged with attempted murder for withholding cancer treatment from her autistic son testified Friday that she did not give him at least five months of chemotherapy medications because the side effects made him so sick she was afraid the treatments would kill him.
Kristen LaBrie, testifying for the second day at her attempted murder trial, said she mostly followed doctor's orders during the first four phases of treatment for her son, Jeremy Fraser. But she said she stopped giving him his cancer medications during the final phase of his treatment because she "didn't want to make him any sicker."
LaBrie said she told her son's doctor two or three times that she was afraid "that he just had had it."
"He was just not capable of getting through any more chemotherapy," LaBrie said.
"I really felt that it could out-villainize the disease — the medicine could — because he was very, very fragile."
LaBrie, 38, of Salem, is charged with attempted murder, child endangerment and assault and battery. Her son died at age 9 in 2009.
The defense rested its case after LaBrie's testimony Friday. Prosecutors also rested after calling one rebuttal witness, a psychiatrist who said he did not believe LaBrie was suffering from a mental impairment when she made the decision to withhold the medication.
The jury is expected to begin deliberating the case Monday after closing arguments and instructions from the judge.
LaBrie's son was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma in 2006. The boy's oncologist testified that she told LaBrie that the cancer had a cure rate of 85 percent to 90 percent under an intensive, two-year treatment plan.
The boy required periodic hospitalizations and frequent visits to a hospital clinic, where he received chemotherapy treatments. LaBrie was instructed to give him two to three cancer medications at home.
After months of treatment, the boy's cancer went into remission. But in February 2008, doctors discovered the cancer had returned in the form of leukemia and that LaBrie had not filled at least five months' worth of prescriptions for her son's cancer drugs.

LaBrie remained composed through most of her testimony, showing emotion only once, when her lawyer asked her why did not give her son the drugs.
"He was very, very sick and I was afraid, and I did not want to make him any sicker," she said, her voice quivering.
"I was afraid that if he got any sicker than he was, then he would die," she said.
Prosecutors have painted a picture of a woman who "seethed with resentment" over the small role the boy's father, Eric Fraser, had played in his life after the couple split up when the boy was 3. Jeremy had severe autism, allergies and other health issues. LaBrie said she largely took care of him by herself.
