Solution

Health was initially considered as the physical wellness of an individual; however, today the horizons have broadened and this term includes mental wellness along with physical wellness. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has given a definition of health as 'a state of physical, social and mental well being of an individual and not just a mere absence of diseases.'
