“… a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”

I smiled when I remember I had to memorise this definition of health for an exam.
I always fall in love with the way you combine philosophy with health.
The concept of who is healthy and who isn't may soon not reach a consensus but with time I believe we could get there. Take for instance, in some parts of Nigeria, being overweight/obese used to be considered as being healthier than being slim. Knowledge of diseases associated with being overweight has made some accept the fact that they are actually not healthy. With time knowledge will permeate into many misconceptions. "Some" is emphasised because there is social and psychological advantage attached to being overweight. I guess we still have a long way to go.

Don’t get me wrong I’m still all in favour of slaying the dragon tyrant of death but just with more of a focused on doing so in a way where we’re not causing more problems than we solve.

lol....I"m still of the school of thought that life in its entirety is a sort of balance. Every phase we pass through, healthy or unhealthy, life and death are in a kind of balance. Maybe no one was meant to be completely healthy because I doubt is achievable. So I'd agree with you.

I love your article bro. Kudos!
