Health promotion is an indirect way of improving public health. health protection involves direct action to curb the growth and spread of diseases. which of the following activities is an example of health promotion? banning smoking in public places educating people about substance abuse testing food products before they are sold

For the examples given, health promotion would be the education of the public about substance abuse. They are putting the idea of substance abuse being bad in the public's head. Thereby, attempting to improve public health although, there's no guarantee.

Banning smoking in public places is a "health protection" because it's a physical act that is attempting to make the public health better.

Testing food if also a "health protection" because it's a physical way to make sure that people do not end up with foodborne illnesses or hepatitis' related to dirty food/soil/etc.

I believe the answer to this question is

B) educating people about substance abuse.

I hope this helped.

no way! i don't want to spend my night being sick!

minerals contribute to our overall health because they your body grow, develop, and stay healthy. our bodies use minerals to us function throughout the day.tromhey us build strong bones, so we can do more things in life. with certain minerals, they can you maintain a normal heartbeat!

though, as as minerals are for us, they can also be very dangerous if one were to consume too many. if you were to take too much minerals, or even vitamins, you could experience nausea and diarrhea. all trace minerals can be very toxxic at high levels of consumption. taking too much of some minerals will result in hair loss! but this goes with almost everything in life, taking too much of something that is good, will eventually be bad for you.

my intake in minerals was normal. there really is no need to improve, i am healthy, and i am experiencing no nausea or diarrhea. i am as healthy as a bee. ☺ (sorry that i cannot you with the mineral intake)

what i have learned so far is that taking too much something can be very bad for you. taking too many minerals or vitamins, or anything healthy in general, can result in nausea and diarrhea, as well as hair loss. it would be a good idea to track what you put into your body, good or bad.
