Science. 2002;296:695-8
“Health is much more than the absence of disease…..For the individual, maintaining and enhancing health requires a proactive approach characterized by behaviors, choices and interventions that maximize function and wellness.” Fontanarosa, P JAMA. 1998;280:1866“Not only do persons with better health habits survive longer, but in such persons, disability is postponed and compressed into fewer years at the end of life.” Vita, AJ et al.
