Abstract

Man's greatest asset is his health. It is the origin of man's joy. Nothing may be deemed to be of greater importance in terms of resources for socio economic growth than the general well-being of the populace. A financial investment in one's health is a growth of the nation's human resources is essential. Therefore, it is crucial to focus on improving one's health in order to increase one's quality of life. Article 25 of the Indian Constitution focuses on the right to health in particular. Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for his or her own and his or her family's health and well-being, including food, clothing, housing, medical care, and necessary services, as well as the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age, or other loss of livelihood due to circumstances beyond his or her control. Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special attention and care. According to various definitions, health can be defined as a state of well-being in which a man can enjoy the richness of his life. It includes living a longer life and being disease-free. Because health is influenced by a variety of factors such as adequate food, housing, basic sanitation, healthy lifestyles, protection from environmental hazards, and communicable diseases, the boundaries of health extend beyond the narrow confines of medical care. As a result, "health care" implies more than "medical care." It encompasses a wide range of "provided services." Health is multifaceted, with each aspect having a significant impact on the person both internally and outwardly in the society in which they live. It is said that the interaction of two sets of circumstances determines what a man is and the diseases to which he may be susceptible. These variables interact, and their effects on health can be either beneficial or detrimental.
