This document discusses key concepts related to health, disease, and causation. It defines health as a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being, not just the absence of disease. Disease is defined as any abnormal function or condition that differs from physical injury. Causation of disease is important to understand for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Factors like temporal relation and dose response are guidelines for determining causal relationships. Health indicators are measurable characteristics that describe aspects of individual or population health and can track progress over time.
