This isn't an official Samsung support forum - nobody here has the power to change anything.

Regarding this: "For your security,samsung health can't be opened on a rooted phone." Well, that's it then... Samsung took (in my opinion) the prudent approach and disabled S-Health on rooted phones. The health app contains sensitive personal information, and they can't control the security of such information on a rooted device.

Perhaps you didn't root the phone, but someone did. And if you want to use apps that access sensitive data, like S-Health, you'll need to un-root the phone (and I know next to nothing about this process, so someone with more experience would have to offer some suggestions - @Rukbat, @Mooncatt, ?). If you don't want to do that, you could try returning it to the point of sale, at which point you could purchase an un-rooted phone and use whatever apps you'd like.
