Largely it collects data from other applications providing a secure "hub"
for your data. For example, users of Strava (popular running/cycling/etc.
tracker) can configure things so that all your workouts are automatically
uploaded into Apple Health. users of various glucose meters can configure
them to upload their data as well. Then, looking at Apple Health you can
see both your workouts and your glucose history. You can configure several
major US based labs (no doubt nonUS as well, but I haven't exercised them)
so that your blood or other lab results are automatically downloaded as
well.

In addition to it's function as a hub, it has some limited built in
monitoring ... walking/stair climbing are reasonably picked up from the
phone itself. you can manually input data (such as weight or other
results). If you have an Apple Watch (latest models) you can have your
heart data stored as well. No doubt Apple will add other sensors over time.
