Synonyms such as healthy, wholesome, Hale1, sound2, robust well2
These words are used to describe a state of excellent physical well-being. Healthy implies the absence of illness or illness and is the name used for whole organisms and their components: a healthy babywho flosses regularly to maintain healthy gums. Wholesome refers to a condition of good health, correlated with youthful energy or healthy living: “In truth, a wholesome, ruddy, blooming creature she was” (Harriet Beecher Stowe).
Healthy and wholesome are typically extended to the conditions or choices that are considered to be healthy such as a healthy lifestyle and nutritious food items. Sound emphasizes the freedom from harm, imperfection and impairment “The man with the toothache thinks everyone happy whose teeth are sound” (George Bernard Shaw).
Hale emphasizes the freedom from weakness especially for older adults While robust emphasizes toughness and strength: “He is pretty well advanced in years, but hale, robust, and florid” (Tobias Smollett).
Well signifies absence of or recuperation from illness. Feeling sufficient well to be able to take the journey.
Useful Note: Some individuals insist on keeping the distinction between healthy and healthy. According to them, the term “healthy” is “conducive to good health” and refers to items that help improve health. On the other hand, healthy refers to “possessing good health,” and only applies to other organisms and people. So, healthy people are those who maintain healthy practices. But, the term “healthy” has been used to refer to “healthful” since the 1500s such as this one in John Locke’s Some Thoughts Concerning Education: “Gardening … and working in wood, are fit and healthy recreations for a man of study or business.” In actuality, the word”healthy” is much more popular than the word healthful when it comes to modifying terms such as exercise, diet, as well as food items, and it could be seen by many to be more normal in various situations. In all likelihood, both terms, healthy and healthy should be taken into consideration when describing the things that promote health.
