Health science

Health science is the study of everything related to the human body and how to keep it healthy. It includes things like anatomy (the parts of the body and how they work), physiology (how the body functions), diseases (what makes people sick), and ways to prevent and treat illnesses. Scientists who study health science want to know how different parts of the body work together, and how they can help people stay healthy or feel better if they get sick. Just like how we learn about the different colors and shapes when we draw pictures, health science is learning about how our bodies look and work inside and out!
