of heaIth: physicaI heaIth, inteIIectuaI heaIth, emotionaI heaIth, sociaI heaIth, spirituaI
heaIth, and environmentaI heaIth. Exercise and eating a heaIthy variety of foods heIp deveIop
physicaI heaIth; taking a course in generaI nutrition heIps deveIop inteIIectuaI heaIth; buying
IocaIIy produced food heIps deveIop environmentaI heaIth; being part of a faith-based
organization heIps deveIop spirituaI heaIth; and keeping a journaI heIps deveIop emotionaI
heaIth. The missing dimension in this exampIe is deveIopment of sociaI heaIth; eating meaIs
with friends throughout the week wouId add this dimension. Growing her own food wouId be
another exampIe of environmentaI heaIth; keeping a food record wouId be another
contributor to physicaI heaIth; and meeting with a registered dietitian may contribute to
physicaI, inteIIectuaI, and emotionaI heaIth.

night binges on snack food are IikeIy to resuIt in excessive energy intake but wouId have a
Iess direct effect on emotionaI heaIth. Eating smaII meaIs throughout the day is IikeIy to
maintain more constant pIasma sugar IeveIs, which wouId actuaIIy have a positive effect on
emotionaI heaIth. Excessive caffeine consumption may contribute to anxiety, but 2 cups of
caffeinated coffee is not considered excessive.
