Real GDP is the total value of goods & services produced in an economy, during a period of time. But it is not correct measure of welfare level.
- It does not measure non monetary production, like hobby production eg kitchen gardening, self made paintings, music. But, they increase welfare
- It does not take into consideration the qualitative factors affecting welfare like pollution, crime & literacy. Externalities cause extra benefit or harm to welfare level, but are excluded from GDP.

Real GDP adjusts the value of goods & services for price change (Inflation), it is a correct measure of increase in real flow of goods & services. GDP & health positive correlation is a favouring point for GDP as a measure of welfare. So, these options are incorrect.
