Feedback:
The WHO definition of health is defined as ―a state of complete physical, mental,
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and
a , a , a , a , a , a , a , a , a , a , a
infirmity.‖ Engaging in book reviews facilitates mental and social well-being; chair
, a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
aerobics helps facilitate physical well-being; and assisting with tight control of
,a , a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
diabetes helps with facilitating physical well-being even though the person has a
,a ,a ,a , a ,a , a ,a , a , a ,a ,a ,a
chronic disease.

variety of factors that influence an individual's health or lack thereof.

Department of Health and.Human Services as a teaching example. Of the

,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
that is outside the focus of this report?

A) The client has a diverse background by being of Asian and Native American
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
descent and practices various alternative therapies to minimize effects of
, a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
stress. ,a
B) The client has a family history of cardiovascular disease related to

hypercholesterolemia and remains noncompliant with the treatment

regime. ,a
C) The client has a good career with exceptional preventative health care benefits.

Feedback:
In Healthy People 2020, the focus is to promote good health to all (such as using
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
, alternative therapies to minimize effects of stress); achieving health equity and
a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
promoting health for all (which includes having good health care benefits); and
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
promoting good health (which includes living in a clean community with good
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
access tohealth care). A client's noncompliance with treatments to control high
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
,cholesterol levelswithin the presence of a family history of CV disease does not meet
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
the ―attaining lives free of preventable disease and premature death‖ determinant.

a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
between diseases that are caused by abnormal molecules and diseases that cause
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
disease.Which of the following patients most clearly demonstrates the consequences
,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a

Sicklecell anemia, familial hypercholesterolemia, and cystic fibrosis are all
, a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a ,a
examples of the effects of abnormal molecules.
