Indonesian translation:kesehatan
Explanation:
This is the most common word used to express the notion of bodily health. There are other synonyms, however (as there are in any language) -- most notably "kewarasan," which denotes physical health, in addition to mental health. "Kewarasan" is a Javanese loanword, but is very commonly used in Indonesian.
