Answer 2

HEALTH

Health is an active process that depends on the supportive interaction of all the body's systems.

u dAccording to WHO, health is“a complete state of physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” As per the definition, a person cannot be said to be healthy merely by a disease-free condition. He/ she should be physically as well as mentally healthy. This demands a hygienic condition. Health and hygiene are two correlated terms.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), in Healthy People 2010, divides the ten leading factors affecting health into two major themes. The first, lifestyle challenges, includes physical activity, avoidance of excess weight and obesity, abstinence from tobacco use or substance abuse, and responsible sexual behavior. The second, system enhancement challenges, include mental health, freedom from injury and violence, good environmental quality, immunization, and equal access to health care.

HYGIENE

The science of health and how to maintain it. A condition or practice which promotes good health.

Hygiene can also be defined as the practice of certain habits to maintain a good health. It can be at the personal level (personal hygiene) and at the community level (social hygiene).

Personal hygiene: Personal level hygiene includes cleanliness, physical exercise, proper rest, and sleep and other habits like avoiding smoking, drinking alcohols, drugs etc.. Majority of diseases can be prevented by keeping a good personal hygiene.

Social hygiene: Society includes the surrounding we live and other public places. A good environment has a great impact on the physical and mental condition of an individual. The untidy and improper way of disposal of waste in public places leads to unhealthy conditions. These lead to uncontrolled growth of rodents and disease-causing and carrying microbes and make us ill. Hence social hygiene is as important as personal hygiene.
