Good nutrition and physical activity are pillars of a healthy lifestyle. But they're not the only ones. Avoiding accidents, reducing the risk of non-communicable diseases, and avoiding the contagion of those that do, are also part of the actions to have a good quality of life, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
From the international body, they point out that health is one of the pillars of Agenda 2030 for sustainable development, so promoting it is essential to achieve the goals that are scheduled for less than 15 years. "Promoting health is about empowering people, communities and societies and providing them with the means to take care of their health and quality of life," they say.
