We always hear of someone or something that is “Healthy”…and “healthy” is sooooo BROAD. I define it to be: Having an understanding of how YOUR body functions and responds to stimuli via diet or exercise. But that’s just me… what does it mean to you… is there a “correct” answer??? We’ll see… = )

All great answers. Vigorous physical activity (within the envelope of one’s condition,) sensible eating most of the time (barbecue spare ribs are a great treat once in awhile!) and a thankful, hopeful attitude are the foundation of being and living healthy. Drink plenty of water. Most of us don’t.

To me it means to be free of diseases, having low or no risk factors and be able to enjoy your life any way you feel like it.

I believe that healthy is a combination of several things. A well rounded diet of real unprocessed foods filled with colorful fruits and vegetables and lean proteins. It also includes consistent regular movement (exercise). Whether that’s walking outside, dancing with a fiend or swimming with the kids. It’s moving stretching, and the best exercise includes laughter. The final part is mental/spiritual. Quiet time with yourself. Spend it with a book, taking a nap, with the bible, time at church, meditation or in a bathtub. Time to relax the mind and quiet the soul. A well rounded life that can be lived to your fullest potential.

Healthy to me means being able to be as physically active as I possibly can, eating foods that will fulfill me nutritionally, enjoying the ability to rest and re charge and to have a positive outlook on life no matter what comes my way

For me “healthy” is a state of physical being and a state of mind. Having a ‘functional’ body (one that is capable of doing what a body is intended to do, and that can serve the purposes for which I need it), and a positive attitude about life in general and myself as a person. This is ‘health’ to me.
