Health

Health refers to a person’s condition where he/she is known to be free of any physical and/or mental illness, pain or injury.

On this site, we extend its meaning to include the fact that other facets of a personality like appearance, fitness levels, confidence, happiness, sex, relationships also contribute to the health of a person.
