Health is more
Health is one of the main goals of many International associations. It is defined relevant by the United Nations (2015) and the European Union (2007, 2010) in order to develop in terms of respect for human rights and of sustainability.
Because of this, Bablog wants to promote it, but before talking about methods, it is fundamental to define what health is.
In order to correctly define health, or rather what is being worked on in hospitals, reference should be made to the World Health Organization (WHO). Indeed, WHO is the unit which provides guidance and coordination on health matters in the United Nations' system. From its constitution (1948), health is defined as "that state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not simply the absence of illness".
Although this definition can be shared by most of the people, its insidious terms are often misleading. In fact, the words "well-being", "psychic" and "social" do not have a universal meaning such as as "physical", but different from person to person. This is because "well-being", "psychic" and "social" are not concrete things that everyone can touch and see but are objects to think about and everyone thinks differently. This implies confusion when someone has to promote health because there is not a clear idea about what it really is.
Leaving aside the immense chapters of "psychic" and "social", it is considered only the word "well-being", because it is the keystone of the definition: that term to which the other three terms refer. "Well-being" comes from the words "good" and "being"; while there can be a universal idea of being, understand as living, the idea of "good" cannot be shared as much. Each person, indeed, has its own range of values to define what is "good" and it is impossible to impose a universal sense of "good". Therefore, the only speculation that can be made on the term "good" is that it is a personal concept. This gives enough space to give a specific definition of health.
Helth, thus, can be reformulated as: "that state of complete personal physical, psychic and social being good and not simply the absence of illness". The shift of attention to the personal component of health makes it possible to assert that there is not one health that is equal between one person and another, but that it depends on how a person thinks about his or her well-being. This also means that being healthy does not necessarily mean being physically healthy, because health is a matter of thoughts, not of the body. This reinforced by the concept that health is not "simple absence of disease". This fundamental passage means that there is the possibility of being healthy despite being ill: the important part is to work on the well-being.
In conclusion, therefore, the real determinant of one's health is not an illness, nor a medical prescription, but self's idea of health, of being good.
This is the health that Bablog wants to promote, or rather, Bablog wants to give back to as many people as possible the responsibility for their health, the responsibility of choosing to be well. A healthy world will be a world where everyone can live their lives well and freely, even if they are ill.
Per questo motivo, Bablog vuole promuoverla, ma prima di parlare di metodi, è necessario definire cosa sia la salute.
Per definire correttamente la salute, o meglio ciò su cui si lavora negli ospedali, bisogna fare riferimento all'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità, ovvero a quell’organismo di indirizzo e coordinamento in materia di salute all’interno del sistema delle Nazioni Unite. Dalla costituzione di questa, la salutè risulta essere "quello stato di completo benessere fisico, psichico e sociale e non semplice assenza di malattia".

Salute è di più
La salute è uno degli obiettivi principali di molti organi internazionali. È definita fondamentale dalle Nazioni Unite (2015) e dall'Unione Europea (2007, 2010) per lo sviluppo mondiale in termini di rispetto dei diritti umani e di sostenibilità.Per questo motivo, Bablog vuole promuoverla, ma prima di parlare di metodi, è necessario definire cosa sia la salute.
Per definire correttamente la salute, o meglio ciò su cui si lavora negli ospedali, bisogna fare riferimento all'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità, ovvero a quell’organismo di indirizzo e coordinamento in materia di salute all’interno del sistema delle Nazioni Unite. Dalla costituzione di questa, la salutè risulta essere "quello stato di completo benessere fisico, psichico e sociale e non semplice assenza di malattia".
Per quanto questa definizione sia condivisibile dai più, spesso i suoi termini insidiosi traggono in inganno. Infatti le parole "benessere" "psichico" e "sociale" non hanno un significato universale come "fisico", ma differente da persona a persona, perché non sono cose che tutti toccano e vedono, ma che si pensano e ognuno pensa diversamente. Ciò confonde quando bisogna promuovere la salute, perché non si ha una chiara idea di cosa sia realmente, per cui ora si cercherà di fare chiarezza.
Tralasciando gli immensi capitoli di "psichico" e "sociale", si prende in esame solo il "benessere", ovvero la chiave di volta della definizione: quel termine a cui gli altri tre termini fanno riferimento. "Benessere" viene da "bene" e "stare"; mentre si può avere un'idea universale dello stare, non è altrettanto condivisibile l'idea del bene. Ognuno infatti ha la sua gamma di valori ed è impossibile imporne una unica, quindi l'unica speculazione che si può fare su questo termine è che sia un concetto personale. Ciò concede abbastanza spazio per dare una definizione specifica di salute.
Si può infatti riformulare come: "quello stato di completo personale bene-stare fisico, psichico e sociale e non semplice assenza di malattia". Lo spostamento dell'attenzione sulla componente personale della salute permette di asserire che non c'è una salute che è uguale all'altra, ma che dipende da come la persona pensa il proprio benessere. Questo vuol dire anche che essere in salute non significa per forza essere sani, perché la sanità/guarigione è "semplice assenza di malattia" e qui si vuole andare oltre, verso un sentirsi bene contemporaneamente nel fisico, nella psiche e nella dimensione sociale. Tale passaggio vuol dire anche che esiste la possibilità di essere in salute pur essendo malati, perché si sta bene.
In conclusione, dunque, la vera determinante della propria salute non è la malattia, né prescrizione medica, bensì sé stessi e la propria idea sulla salute, sullo star bene.

Questa è la salute che vuole promuovere Bablog o meglio, Bablog vuole restituire a
più persone possibile la responsabilità riguardo alla propria salute, la responsabilità di scegliere di stare bene. Un mondo in salute, sarà un mondo dove ognuno può vivere bene e liberamente la sua vita, anche se è malato.
