Chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease (COPD), and diabetes are the leading causes of death
and disability in the United States. Every individual in our community
is either directly or indirectly affected by the burden of chronic
disease.
Although chronic diseases are among the most common and costly health
problems, they are also among the most preventable. Adopting healthy
behaviors such as eating healthy foods, being physically active, and
avoiding tobacco can prevent or control the devastating effects of
these health issues.
Preventing Chronic Disease in the
Future Means Living Healthy Today!
