			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The most precious thing in the world for a human being is his health. Without a healthy life, nothing appears attractive and meaningful. Most of the times, people are unaware of the health care standards and compulsions for this reason, people have unhealthy diet patterns and frequently catch viral infections. The unhealthy diet is the basic reason behind the weakening of immune systems of body. There are people who do not eat healthy food at all because they do not know the importance of each diet element and there are some people who intentionally cut their diet.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The weight loosing trend is increasing in the developed countries due to the availability of numerous options and awareness sources. The reason for increased weight loss awareness may be due to the fact that western country people take in high cholesterol and fatty food items. The inability to burn the consumed fats make most of the people gain weight which is dangerous for the health. So for this reason the United States experts are highlighting health issues on the internet as well as on print media.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The health care research is also advanced in the developed countries. Being the world’s sole super power, United States of America is far ahead of other countries in innovation, pharmacy and medical research. The basic health acre is highly subsidized in public hospitals and nursing home but the private hospital treatments and operations are expensive. Very few countries provide low cost and free medical facilities to its citizens like Canada.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">But in rest of the countries people have to spend themselves on their medication. But in developed countries people do not catch diseases frequently which save them from spending huge amounts of money on medical treatments. The patients from other countries of the world seek medical treatments in the western countries due to the advanced technology and facilities available with them. The research and technology is advancing rapidly in such countries which is becoming a source of national income. Medical instruments are prepared in the industries of European and United States’ industries and are exported to the rest of the world. Similar is the case with the medicines. The United States of America manufactures medicines and supplies it to the developing countries as they lack technology as well as expertise to manufacture certain medicines. World health organization is also developed by the advanced nations to help the nations which are far behind in this regard.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The social work profession emerged in the health care first of any other field. The very first social workers were in fact the medical social workers who helped the people injured in the world wars. So the social work as an important place in the health care professions. No doubt it can not directly contribute to the health care of people but it can act as a channel between the patients and doctors.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Especially the poor people can seek the help of the social workers who have been appointed by almost all big hospitals. The social workers in the health care profession are known as clinical and medical social workers. Health care profession surely needs a human element while they treat patients. But most of the times, the doctors can not do proper counseling of the patient and his family. This is the responsibility of social work. The spaces left in every field, which require some kind of humanistic approach and counseling is tackled by social workers. Similar is the trend in health care professions. The hospitals and pharmaceutical firms appoint social workers who can advise about the ethical standards as well as counsel patients.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The health care services are ensured by the socials health workers at community as well as individual levels the governments of developing nations are now realizing the importance of social work profession and are now adopting various strategies of development which require social workers’ services. But in spite all the roles it can play for the socio economic prosperity, it covers unfortunately few areas of health care only. It must be done that all the health care providers get training on social work from the expert social workers so they may not work as machines in their health care institutions.  Many areas are there which require social work’s attention. The awareness about the health care and diseases can be spread by the social workers. This is due to the reason that they may have abilities and skills to communicate with the communities and social gatherings of various social classes to convince them.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This must be done in the developing countries as the developed countries have almost solved their community related problems. Developed countries are far ahead of under developed world in health care services and social work associated with the health services. They have succeeded in introducing human element in the hospitals along with the materialistic approach of treatment.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">The health care is a vast field but the people are becoming aware of body fitness more than any other health care issue. The education and media have played good role in spreading awareness about the physical fitness. People are now conscious of their health. This is due to the fact that no one wants to be ill. Living a healthy life is a wish of every human being. In fact no body wishes to be sick and appear unwell physically. But the social circumstances mostly make people unable to take care of health and physical fitness.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The fitness is important for many reasons. If you are not fit physically you may get several mental problems and disorders as well. And due to the social and psychological reasons you may face physical health disturbance. Appearing smart and attractive is also a reason for which the demand for physical health care services is increasing. Not only are the number of people seeking such services increasing, the fitness service centers are also increasing across the globe even in the developing countries. Every one wants to look pretty and fit to get the attention of others. This has now become important for the gaining success in profession as well as in getting a good spouse.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The media portrayal has played a very important role in making such opinions of people around the world. People adopt various ways to satisfy turn their dreams of slim and smart body along with healthy look. The natural items are mostly used by the people as they lack side effects. But to stay healthy and physically fit is ensured only if one eats healthy, does regular exercise and avoids stress. If a person is physically fit he may remain psychologically healthy. But social, physical and psychological health are inter related.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If any one factor of this triangle is disturbed, the other two would surely be affected. The internet is a good source of health care information. People can use the web content for useful health care tips and advises. The weight loss is highly important for the people who are obese. The health does not mean obesity nor does it mean slimness. It requires healthy diet which provides the body with required nutrition and energy. Even how one can prevent diseases can be known through the internet sources. Surely, internet is well serving the health care as well as the physical fitness topics.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Health care has been used as an indicator of quality of life and social well being in various societies the welfare states come to know the effectiveness of their services by the help of this indicator. The socio economic development of a country depends upon the basic facilities it provides to its nationals. The prosperity of people and the revenue in the hand of government determines the success of a state. Mostly the failed states fail to provide proper medication, food and education facilities for its citizens. So the health care is rated high while socio economic development is analyzed by the experts.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The low cost and the quality of services available for public are also observed in this regard. The health care services involve the hospices, nursing homes, clinics, nursing staff, doctors, research, health education, pharmaceutical services and other health related professions. The quality as well as the quantity of the services must be ensured in order to make a country improve its international ranking. The developed countries have managed to provide excellent health care facilities to their citizens at relatively reasonable cost. No one compromises in this matter, neither the patients nor the hospital staff. The social workers can play a vital role in making things fixed in the developing countries. But again the system and recognition of social workers is very limited in such countries. The advancement of health science research and innovations in this regard are considered as an important thing for considering a country improving its socio economic status. In some European countries the health care service like hospitalization and medication are extremely expensive. This makes its citizens spend more on the health care.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">But in United States of America people spend more on consumer items like food and luxuries. The medication is not so expensive in United States of America. Moreover, the Canadian state provides health care facilities on cheap rates to all its nationals which helps keep it a good quality of life. People find more to spend on other needs of life. Hence life is prosperous in such countries. The developing countries do have the government hospitals where the treatment of poor is done free of cost till certain limit but the quality of health care services is miserable. The cleanliness of environment and water is also an important issue of developing countries. But the people are unaware of these issues as they are trapped in low quality life and social problems.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Health care is the term which refers to the maintenance of health by controlling and managing the illness and diseases, for both mental and physical fitness. But most of us do not consider the mental disorders as a part of health. Even the social well being is included in the world health organization’s definition of health. Health is incomplete without social well being. </p>
<p>More over, the social problems make a person psychologically and physically ill. So it can not be excluded from the definition of health. The minor depression and tension caused by the social situations which are unfavorable are unhealthy. And every unhealthy activity will be considered as the illness or disease. Most of us have no awareness about the importance of health and its care.<br />
<center><br />
<object width="320" height="265"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/R1U6ZQ_KaHs&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x234900&#038;color2=0x4e9e00"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/R1U6ZQ_KaHs&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x234900&#038;color2=0x4e9e00" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="320" height="265"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>The maintenance of health is necessary for us if we want to live a happy and energetic life. The social attitudes must be changed regarding health care people are not conscious of the diseases that spread by various sources. The protection from depression and anxiety is also what is health care. The need of this time is that we must have a favorable attitude towards health care. The health care involves treatment and health counseling but how many of us bother to seek such services? </p>
<p>The developed country citizens are more conscious of health care as compare to the developing country nationals. The developing countries usually have poor sanitation and health management facilities. Along with this they lack awareness about the importance of health care. Due to immense poverty, people of developing countries allocate very low budget to the health care services. Similar is the case with the governments of the developing nations. They spend very low amount of GDP on the health care of the citizens. The supportive attitudes can be developed only if the non governmental organizations play their role in this regard. </p>
<p>The non governmental organizations are the only means through which prosperity can be brought in the developing countries. The awareness of the people can be increased by conducting advertisement campaigns, door to door counseling and through the work shops. The seminars must be conducted by advocating agencies which invite the doctors and health experts who can tell the people about health standards. The education institutions especially the schools, must arrange visits of doctors and experts to guide the students about the attitude which is desirable for health care management. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We need a healthy body both physical and mental to handle the daily stresses. To achieve that, it is necessary to have a proper diet, regular exercises at least twice per week and maintain a healthy habit. Taking care of nutrients in our daily intakes also is a key to maintain our health. To achieve this, we need to consume the appropriate foods, vitamins, and minerals. Please make sure that we balance the nutrient intake.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://healthcarewellness.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/healthy.jpg" alt="" width="412" height="189" /></p>
<p>We need to educate ourselves about the appropriate things to do to keep our bodies fit over the entirety of our lifetimes. Self consciousness is the most important. Bear in mind that we want to live happily and enjoying our life till end, but diseases can hamper our life. We need to start for the very beginning as this process should be a continuous process. It is not possible to abuse a body for years and then hope that a last-minute effort toward bodily health will correct everything that may be wrong with it. It is not possible to create bodily fitness overnight. Becoming fit takes time and patience, and commitment.</p>
<p>Take care of yourself from now!</p>
