Health literacy is important for everyone because, at some point in our lives, we all

need to be able to find, understand, and use health information and services.
Taking care of our health is part of everyday life, not just when we visit a doctor,
clinic, or hospital. Health literacy can help us prevent health problems and protect our
health, as well as better manage those problems and unexpected situations that
happen.

Why should we study health?


Health plays a significant role in the lives of every human being!  It is the key to
the essential functioning of our bodies and minds. Knowing about health is critical to
the way people address both being healthy and coping with diseases which may
appear in their life one day. Diseases such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes and
obesity are increasing every day, making people more conscious about health. As a
result, there is a desire for a greater awareness about preventing and treating
diseases. Generally, everyone pursues a dream, and good health is essential for
success in life. Learning about health enables people to create an action plan based on
healthy eating, exercising, and being proactive about their health care

Health education builds students' knowledge, skills and positive attitudes


about health. Health education teaches about physical, mental, emotional and
social health. It motivates students to improve and maintain their health, prevent
disease and reduce risky behaviors.

Being healthy should be part of your overall lifestyle. Living a healthy lifestyle can


help prevent chronic diseases and long-term illnesses. Feeling good about yourself
and taking care of your health are important for your self-esteem and self-image.
Maintain a healthy lifestyle by doing what is right for your body.
