Examples of such determinants of health that show impact on health as outlined by the WHO are equitable start in life, building a prosperous living environment, fair employment and meaningful work, social protection as well as universal access to healthcare. These determinants have a substantial impact on human health and will be included in the subsequent discussion on the social and socio-economic factors that can influence human health.
Some studies show that together with the most important factors building our modern concept of health is immediate access to social networks or support groups. This was concluded from the idea that humans are inherently social beings and are dependent on our surrounding networks for basic needs as well as emotional fulfillment.
It seems like common sense to consider it today, but an individuals overall well-being and health is linked to positive social interactions on a personal and group dynamic level, and can now also be proven to show a connection to health from a physiologic point of view.
