The Importance of Health in Article Writing
by redsaf
Health is a state of physical, mental and social well-being and not just the absence of disease or infirmity. It is defined in different ways by different people and organisations, but commonly includes the ability to adapt to change and a sense of personal fulfillment and meaning. There is also a growing focus on the importance of the wider environment, including natural, built and social environments in health.
There is a broad consensus that promoting health is not just about eliminating diseases or decreasing risk factors but about changing broader social conditions. This is reflected in the development of the concept of health promotion. Health promotion is a process that involves individuals and communities to achieve optimal levels of health in the context of their own values, needs and aspirations. This concept differs from traditional approaches to health which are largely focused on clinical and policy interventions.
Most readers of health, medical or wellness articles are looking for something helpful – whether it is to better understand a specific condition, or to learn how to live with a chronic illness, or even just to know what symptoms are normal vs worrisome. They want to trust that the article is written by someone with genuine expertise and experience, and will be willing to accept advice or suggestions they can relate to.
Many aspects of health are due to choices made by individuals, such as their own level of activity, the types of foods they eat, and so on. Other factors are related to the structure of society, such as whether or not there is easy access to healthcare services. Still others are beyond individual control, such as genetic disorders.
The way in which health is understood and promoted has changed significantly over the past few decades, as has the approach to disease prevention and care. The World Health Organisation has played a major role in this movement, which has moved away from thinking of health as merely the absence of disease to a view that is more holistic and encompasses quality of life.
Getting the tone right is important in any health article, but especially so when a reader is at risk or a serious issue is being discussed. The tone should be friendly, but not so casual that it sounds glib or unprofessional. It is also a good idea to show the article to some other people before publishing it – not just for feedback on tone, but for proofreading and checking facts. A quick glance at a grammar and spelling checker can help to catch some of the smaller errors that often slip through. A more in-depth proofread can be done with tools such as Hemingway and Grammarly. Finally, it is a good idea to send the article to a few trusted friends and colleagues for their honest feedback. They may find some grammatical or structural issues that you have missed, or may point out some other issues that can be addressed before publication.
