Health is more than just freedom from disease. The World Health Organization defines it as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being. Ideally it means having the energy and stamina to engage in the activities that are important in our lives.
The health care that you receive from your doctor or practitioner is an important part of being healthy. But even more important are the choices you make every day and the role model you become for your children and grandchildren.
Eating well, exercising and managing stress can make a difference in our health and our lives. Michigan's surgeon general encourages everyone in Michigan to "step up to a healthier lifestyle". Find out how by visiting the following websites:
