Abstract
The world health organization (WHO), since 1948, has defined
health as “a state of complete physical, mental, and social wellbeing,
not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. This was
later expanded to include intellectual, environmental, and spiritual
health. This is a very remarkable statement, considering that it was
originally created in 1948(WHO) [1].
