Wellness
Health and wellness essentially refer to a state of optimum function – an optimal state of physical, mental, and social well-being. Optimal function is an ideal that we can pursue through appropriate lifestyle choices, particularly diet, exercise, adequate sleep, healthy mental pursuits, healthy relationships, and a job we like. Please understand that “true health” is not a realizable state – it should be viewed as goal to achieve throughout one’s lifetime.
While health and wellness are essentially synonymous, the term “wellness” is typically used to describe the active care performed by the patient for the purpose of promoting health/wellness. Wellness is actually defined (see dictionary.com) as optimal function achieved via exercise and proper nutrition.
The deflaming approach to nutrition that includes diet and supplementation represents a method to pursue health/wellness and prevent disease. Deflaming can also help you treat diseases that are caused by inflammation. This is discussed in more detail in the following sections: Reducing Inflammation with Diet and Reducing Inflammation with Supplements.
