Understanding Health: More Than Just Absence of Disease

In this episode of Performance Health Podcast, the host has an insightful discussion with a health expert, Tim, to dig deeper into the definition of health beyond its widely accepted term - the absence of disease. They discuss the different aspects of health encompassing physical, mental, emotional and spiritual areas of wellness, challenges that come with defining health, the importance of understanding and applying health concepts to daily living, and the relevance of key indicators such as blood pressure, resting heart rate, and body mass index. The conversation extends to the potential impacts of a lifestyle on health and ways to manage it effectively, with an emphasis on creating a balance in personal health routines and understanding individual health needs.
