here are five common misconceptions about being healthy:

If your numbers are good, you are healthy. The speaker argues that many factors can affect these numbers, and a high blood pressure reading on one occasion might not necessarily mean you are unhealthy.
Having no major health issues means you are healthy. The speaker says that even if you don't have any diagnosed diseases, you might still have underlying health problems. For example, wearing glasses can be a sign of underlying health issues.
Working out means you are healthy. The speaker argues that fitness and health are two different things. While working out can improve your health, you can still be fit and unhealthy.
Eating healthy means you are healthy. The speaker acknowledges that diet is important, but it is just one factor affecting your health. You can eat a healthy diet but still have underlying health problems if you haven't addressed those issues.
You can get healthy from outside of your body. The speaker argues that the only way to get healthy is to utilize your body's natural resources. While things like herbs and supplements can assist the body's natural healing processes, they are not a shortcut to health.
