Question

Demonstrating your understanding of both terms, explain the difference between health and wellbeing

Answer 1

Answer: Health and well-being though may look synonyms on the exterior, have major differences in their meaning as well as application.

Explanation: Let me explain this with examples.

1. Nature of words.

Health- speaks for the physical (or even mental) fitness. Whether your body (or mind) works the way it should in the given circumstances.

Well-being on the other hand is the status of your body (or mind).

Eg: "He was healthy, but died from depression."

This shows how when we speak about health its only the physical entity, whereas well-being is the state of mind or your body (exhausted, euphoric, excited, etc.)

2.Application.

Health is applied to basically medical conversations, where right Blood-pressure, heart rate or cholesterol levels might predict you a longer life.

Well-being is applied to monetary, for-their-own-good topics and also emotional wellness.

Hope this helps.
