Good health: the keys to staying fit and healthy

 

Being in good health is a concept that has evolved a lot. To stay in shape, our lifestyles, our social relationships, and the influence of our environment play an essential role.

 

What is it to be healthy?

 

In 1946, the WHO (World Health Organization) proposed a definition of physical health which depends on the perception of each individual, and broadens it to its psychological and social dimensions. Being in good health is "a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being, and is not just the absence of disease or infirmity."

 

Since 1946, the WHO definition of good health has continued to develop. Instead of remaining with an individual isolated from his or her life context, she integrated the issue of society and the environment. Initially, it was simply a case of affirming the need to take care of the quality of the environment, and in particular to fight against pollution, to improve human health and prevent many diseases.

 

Sustainable health, or the influence of the environment on health

 

The current consensus concept goes further, with the concept of “sustainable health”. The importance and influence of the environment on health emerged in 2002 at the Johannesburg Earth Summit, and WHO created a dedicated theme: "health and sustainable development".

 

The current wording is: "Sustainable health is a comprehensive state of physical, mental and social well-being achieved and maintained throughout life through healthy, fulfilling and fulfilling living conditions and access to appropriate, quality resources that are used responsibly and efficiently. "

 

In this sense, health is not only related to the quality of the environment at the moment T. Staying fit and in good health depends on the social, economic and cultural conditions which allow everyone to live in a supportive environment. (and not just “not harmful”) and to participate in maintaining these favorable conditions in the future for oneself and for one's descendants.

 

The environment, an important concept to stay in shape

 

For Hippocrates, in the 5th century BC, disease is already a bodily process under the influence of air, water, the places where we live, combined with food and habits of life.

 

Then, in the history of medicine, the influence of the environment on health has sometimes been forgotten, and put in competition with myths or religions. But the environment as a determinant of our health is making a comeback today with epigenetics.

 

The good health of populations depends heavily on the environment in the broad sense. This also includes the notion of an individual choice, at least in part, within a general imposed framework (exposure to pollutants, living and working conditions, access to health prevention, care, leisure, culture, etc. etc.).

 

In recent years, numerous studies have shown the dangerousness of pollution, responsible for many diseases, which greatly reduce life expectancy. The British scientific journal The Lancet published a report in 2017 which shows that contamination of the air, but also of water and workplaces, causes 9 million premature deaths each year, or 16% of the total. deaths around the world. This represents three times more deaths than AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria combined.

 

The influence of our environment and our behavior on our health

 

We are living longer, but are we fit and healthy? It is estimated that 20 million people are chronically ill in France, meaning that they need medical care for more than six months to survive.

 

Why are there so many chronically ill people? Because, in the richest countries, advances in medicine allow people whose health is seriously impaired (cardiovascular diseases, cancers, hepatitis, diabetes, etc.) to continue with their lives for sometimes decades.

 

Thanks in particular to advances in medicine, the population now lives on average much longer. However, the effects of pollution and harmful lifestyle habits (sedentary lifestyle, smoking, alcohol consumption, too rich a diet, stress) often result in poor health, especially in the second part of life.

 

Prevention, a key asset for staying fit and healthy

 

Some have seen the human genome as a big book in which everything is written down, the diseases of some as well as the longevity of others. Reality leaves more room for prevention.

 

Only 2% of our genes give precise operating instructions to cells in our body. The remaining 98% of the genome have long been neglected,
