What is a healthy person and how to determine it?

The concepts of an adequate existence and perception of the world around us play an important role in our life. But rarely does anyone seriously think about what a truly healthy person is (both physically and mentally). It is understandable: for people who feel good, this is not so necessary, and patients, as a rule, think only about their illness. Therefore, probably, the very concept of a โ€œhealthy personโ€ looks a bit blurry. In this article we will try to formulate just some principles by which this can be determined.

Healthy people

It is rightly noticed: health is what people remember when it leaves. In fact, this is one of the most important criteria for a full-fledged life of people, regardless of their well-being and race, religion and significance. Moreover, health and disease as a concept cannot be considered regardless of each other. It is not possible to find a clear and absolute face. Therefore, probably, in many medical reports, professional doctors write: "Almost healthy."

The basics

Of course, not all people in the world look the same. There are various forms and types of body, weight, height, national characteristics and other important signs. What is beneficial for one may be harmful to another. But in general, you can take as a basis some basic general criteria by which a healthy person is determined. In the physical context, it is an individual who does not have bad habits, regularly performs sporting events. In the psychological, a positive attitude towards being, the ability to communicate with oneself like ones, and observing moral and religious laws. Healthy people, as a rule, are immediately recognized in the gray crowd, a pleasant and quite powerful aura of well-being comes from them. The others, too, are drawn to them, unconsciously (or consciously) trying to recharge with the energy of harmony. In this context, we can say that a healthy person is one in which physical abilities, strengths, emotional feelings, spiritual development are in harmony with each other.

Medical examination criteria

Everything may seem very simple: if you are not sick, then you are healthy. But sometimes this is not so, and a person does not suspect about the disease living in him. This becomes known by accident, as a result of the delivery of routine analyzes or ongoing examinations. Therefore, it is very important not only to feel good, but also to listen to the opinion of doctors. And if at the same time the doctor tells you that you are healthy, then this is true.

Feeling good

At the physiological level, the well-being of an individual may consist of specific manifestations.

  • There is enough (and even with excess) energy to carry out daily activities: go to work, do household and family affairs, and household work. And, which is characteristic and especially important, do not feel unhappy at the same time!
  • Healthy and calm sleep. Waking up easily, without tension and swinging, starting daily business, feeling vigor and a surge of strength after a night's rest.
  • There is regular (at least once a day) bowel movement. Sometimes this factor is not given due attention, but in vain! Indeed, irregularity is the key to poisoning the body with vital products, and slagging (especially after forty) can not lead to anything good: a person starts to get sick, immunity decreases, a breakdown appears, indicating a general and regular poisoning of the body.

External signs

The image of a healthy person, as a rule, consists of external signs characteristic of the species: physique not overloaded with excessive kilograms, complexion and skin, smile - and many other nuances. Let's consider some of them.

  • When you smile, gums and teeth have a pleasant healthy color. This in itself already says a lot: that a person eats properly, there are no intestinal diseases. Healthy gums should not be dark red or purple. Otherwise, it may signal hidden existing diseases.
  • Human hair can also tell a lot in the context of health and proper nutrition. If a person has brittle and oily hair, then this may indicate problems that begin. In a healthy person, they are shiny and not brittle, without visible damage. And excessively dry ones indicate a lack of vitamins and amino acids in the diet.
  • Language can also suggest whether a person is healthy or not. Not for nothing that doctors ask at the reception to show the tongue! In a healthy person, this organ is of a characteristic pink color, without white (or yellowish) plaque.

What needs to be done to be healthy?

Much in this regard depends on a balanced diet. If you are not feeling completely healthy, try starting with just that. Analyze whether your diet is correctly calculated, whether there are enough vegetables and fruits, vitamins and minerals in it. It will not be superfluous to estimate how many kilocalories per day you spend, and how much you consume when eating. In many people, even those who look healthy, all these parameters do not stand up to criticism. Set your daily routine. Sleep should be long, at the right time - but not excessive (about 7-8 hours). And do not forget about physical exercises: they must be performed daily, especially for people who lead a sedentary lifestyle.
