Social determinants of health, such as poverty, education, and access to healthcare, can have a significant impact on health outcomes. For example, people living in poverty are more likely to have poor health due to factors such as lack of access to healthy food, safe housing, and quality healthcare. In addition, people with low levels of education are less likely to have the knowledge and skills to make healthy choices and maintain a healthy lifestyle. All of these factors can lead to health inequalities, both within and between countries.
