Document Summary
Choosing wellness strive towards and achieving it requires knowledge, self-awareness, motivation and effort. Optimal health comes mostly from a healthy lifestyle, patterns of behaviour that promote and support your health not and as you get older. Each year, thousands of students lose productive academic time to physical and emotional health problems, some of which can continue for life. Although some troubles, like a recent death, cannot be controlled, other physical and emotional concerns can be minimized by choosing healthy behaviours. Stress, the top health issue for students, cane managed by reducing unhealthy choices (using alcohol or drugs to relax) and increasing healthy choices (using time-management techniques): hereditary and family history. The human genome varies only slightly from person to person and while many of these differences don t affect health, some have important implications. Errors in genes are responsible for about 3500 clearly hereditary conditions, including sickle-cell disease and cystic fibrosis.
