希望大家都健康 #1

我突然有这个想法,想在我的blog分享一些我在大学MPharm学到的知识,算是为 health promotion, 尽一份很微薄的力。(前提是如果有人读,哈哈)

转眼2012年的华人新年15天过完了。新年后,你容易生病吗?

暴饮暴食,熬夜,或狂欢等,身体很快地出现病状。

希望大家要好好照顾身体。健康就好像1000 000 000中最前面的“1”,没有“1”,后面有再多的“0”也没有用。如果你牺牲健康换取金钱或成功,不久的将来, 你所换来的金钱和成功很快就要拿去医病,但是健康再也换不回来了。


前面的文字纯属我个人意见。不过,大家记得要多喝水.(http://nebulafreedom.blogspot.com/2011/10/blog-post_6425.html


接下来的是我大学学习的social pharmacy知识。

首先,什么是健康?What is health? 
看似很简单的题目,其实蛮值得探讨。

目前,世界卫生组织(World Health Organisation)说:
Health is a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity


简单来说,健康包括了身体,心理和社交。这也许和很多人之前的想法不同,很多人以为健康只要身体健壮就够了。(依次推类,“祝你身心健康”是比“祝你身体健康”更正确的祝福语)

“Physical Health is free from pain, physical disability, acute and chronic diseases and bodily discomfort, ie as normal functions of body cells, organs and systems.


Mental Health composed of ability to deal constructively with reality and adapt to change without feeling threatened by it. Positive self-image, an ability to cope with stress, an ability to develop intimate relationship, enjoy pleasures of ordinary life, making plans for future are important aspects of mental health.”

我个人觉得mental health 很重要,所以list down比较多points。Mental health和spiritual health息息相关。“ Spiritual health is the ability to articulate and act on one's own basic purpose of life, giving and receiving love, trust, joy and peace, having a set of principles to live by, having a sense of selflessness, honour , integrity and sacrifice being willing to help others achieve their full potential.

“Social integration, social networks and social support have both direct and indirect influence on health.”
有好朋友知己对健康有益。此说法是真的。=)

最后问题,你觉得自己健康吗?
