Metal Gear Solid 3 and 4 had the perfect idea with their health systems.
Your health didn't regenerate when you stopped taking damage for a certain amount of time; instead, if you stay completely still, your health will start regenerating slowly. The speed at which your health regenerate also depended on your stamina (or in MGS4's case-- Psyche.)
MGS4 provides you with much less health and Psyche than its predecessor, so your health will naturally recover much quicker (but it will still take a good 1-2 minutes to fully recover if your health is really low).
