You have heard of the saying "Health is Wealth". Have you ever tried to know what Health actually means? The word 'Health' was derived from the word 'hoelth', which means 'soundness of the body'.
In olden days, health was considered to be a 'Divine Gift' and illness was believed to have been caused due to the sins committed by the concerned person. It was Hippocrates (460 to 370 BC) who came up with the reasons behind illness. According to him, illness is caused due to various factors relating to environment, sanitation, personal hygiene and diets.
The Indian system of Ayurveda which existed many centuries before Hippocrates, considered health as a delicate balance of four fluids: blood, yellow bile, black bile and phlegm and an imbalance of these fluids causes ill health. Susruta, the Father of Indian medicine is even credited with complex surgeries unknown to the West in those times.
Over a period of time, modern medicine has evolved into a complex science and the goal of modern medicine is no longer mere treatment of sickness but includes prevention of disease and promotion of quality of life. A widely accepted definition of health is the one given by World Health Organisation in 1948; it states that "Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease". It is to be noted that Indian system of medicine like Ayurveda incorporated such a complete view of health from times immemorial.
