Good morning
I have just reviewed the comments cited below in response to a request for
favorite web sites. I am curious to hear your comment that nutrition and
smoking are not REALLY health promotion. I would ask you, then, for your
definitions of health promotion and especially those that would indicate
that subject matter such as this are not included in the processes of health
promotion.
Thanks for your comments and time.

You asked about "health promotion" WWW sites. If you are serious about "real"
>health promotion and not simply lifestyle change you will look up the
W.H.O. sites

include the
>Healthy Cities offices in Europe, the WHO main site in Geneva, etc.
Nutrition and
>smoking and that kind of stuff is okay, I guess, but it isn't REALLY health
