Health is viewed holistically as an interacting system with mental, emotional and components. The World Health Organization (WHO 1998) has defined as “Health is a state of physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. (World Health Organization, 1998) Health is the most important Socio-economic aspects of every individual life, its importance is evident in old saying, “Health is Wealth” Health is not only basic to lead a happy life for an individual, but also necessary for all productive activities in the society. Health is the level of functional or metabolic efficiency of a living organism. In humans, it is the general condition of a person's mind and body, usually meaning to be free from illness, injury or pain (as in
