Health is the level of functioning of a living being. As it pertains to the human being it is the condition of a person's mind and body, meaning to be free from illness, injury or pain. The World Health Organization, which is a global health institute, states that health is "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well beings and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." Health care providers assist humans in promoting good health and preventing situations that would lead to poor health.
