Defining biomedical information

Per what was stated here by Seppi333 and me, this essay is lacking if people come away from it thinking that biomedical information only concerns diseases. The bullying example I gave in that aforementioned discussion is an example of a topic that is not a disease but has biomedical effects, such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, violence and suicide. While major depressive disorder can be considered a disease, there are a lot of experts that distinguish between mental disorder and disease, just like a lot of them distinguish between disease and infection, which is why there was that recent big sexually transmitted disease vs. sexually transmitted infection debate. General depression (the depression (mood) topic I linked to above), anxiety, low self-esteem, violence and suicide are not typically thought of as diseases.

Obviously, we need to expand the page. I'd like to give some examples specific to alt med, too. WhatamIdoing (talk) 04:42, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
