Saúde

Saúde is the Portuguese term for "health." It refers to the overall state of physical, mental, and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. Health encompasses various aspects, including physical fitness, psychological stability, emotional resilience, and social connections. It is influenced by a multitude of factors, including genetics, lifestyle choices, access to healthcare, environmental conditions, and social determinants. Public health initiatives often aim to promote and protect the health of populations through preventative measures, education, and the provision of healthcare services. The World Health Organization defines health as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach to health that encompasses both individual and community aspects.
