, ANS: C
Wellness enhances a persons level of health through development of each of the
six dimensions of health: physical health, intellectual health, emotional health,
social health, spiritual health, and environmental health. Exercise and eating a
health variety of foods help develop physical health; taking a course in general
nutrition helps develop intellectual health; buying locally produced food helps
develop environmental health; being part of a faith-based organization helps
develop spiritual health; and keeping a journal helps develop emotional health.
The missing dimension in this example is development of social health; eating
meals with friends throughout the week would add this dimension. Growing her
own food would be another example of environmental health; keeping a food
record would be another contributor to physical health; and meeting with a
registered dietitian may contribute to physical, intellectual, and emotional
health.
