Health promotion is an indirect way of improving public health. health protection involves direct action to curb the growth and spread of diseases. which of the following activities is an example of health promotion? banning smoking in public places educating people about substance abuse testing food products before they are sold

For the examples given, health promotion would be the education of the public about substance abuse. They are putting the idea of substance abuse being bad in the public's head. Thereby, attempting to improve public health although, there's no guarantee.

Banning smoking in public places is a "health protection" because it's a physical act that is attempting to make the public health better.

Testing food if also a "health protection" because it's a physical way to make sure that people do not end up with foodborne illnesses or hepatitis' related to dirty food/soil/etc.

I believe the answer to this question is

B) educating people about substance abuse.

I hope this helped.
