Torrent 'Health'

Hi, getting the hang of it now but have another probably stupid question. What exactly does the torrents 'health' refer to ? I've avoided torrents which have low health but its frustrating when finding a torrent that I would like to download that has seeds and peers but low health.

It generally refers to the ratio of seeders to leechers and the raw numbers for each of those, and occasionally also the total bandwidth in use by the torrent. None of the three alone can constitute a good measure of a torrent's health, and even combined, the torrent 'health' is pretty much arbitrary, and can't really predict how quickly or slowly your download will be.
