           The different types of health include physical health, mental health, emotional health, social health, intellectual health, environmental health, spiritual health, occupational health, financial health, and community health.

         

     1. Physical Health

                                                                         

               Physical health can be defined as a state of well- being when all internal and external body parts, organs, tissues and cells can function properly as they are supposed to function. Physical activity and exercise can have immediate and long-term health benefits. 

   2.Mental Health

Mental health is a state of mental well-being that enables people to cope with the stresses of life, realize their abilities, learn well and work well, and contribute to their community. It has intrinsic and instrumental value and is integral to our well-being.

  3. Emotional Health

Emotional health is about how we think and feel. It is about our sense of wellbeing, our ability to cope with life events and how we acknowledge our own emotions as well as those of others. It doesn't mean being happy all of the time.

   4. Social Health

Social health is the ability to perform normal social roles, how one gets along with others and how others react to them, and incorporates personality, social skills, and one's available social supports.

   5. Intellectual Health

Typically people think of intellectual health as academic knowledge, but in fact, it also entails creativity, general knowledge, and common sense. Our thoughts are influenced by each of these factors, which in turn influence our decisions.

  

6. Environmental Health   

Environmental health centers on the relationships between people and their environment. When people are exposed to hazards like polluted air and lead in their drinking water, they can develop serious conditions, such as asthma, heart disease, cancer and dementia.
