"A state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely absence of disease or infirmity for socially and economically productive life." This definition of health is given by :

  • A.World Health Organization
  • B.International Olympic Committee
  • C.Indian Olympic Association
  • D.Indian Health Organization

Answer: A

The definition is that of the World Health Organization.

The WHO Constitution (1948) defines health as 'a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity'. The phrase about a socially and economically productive life comes from WHO's later Health for All goal, which aimed at a level of health permitting everyone to lead such a life.

The International Olympic Committee and the Indian Olympic Association govern sport, and there is no 'Indian Health Organization' that issued this definition.
