Abstract:
Chronic diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer, represent significant health challenges worldwide. Diet and lifestyle choices are critical determinants of health and are widely acknowledged for their role in the prevention and management of these diseases. This article explores the global impact of diet and lifestyle on chronic disease prevention, examining the key factors that contribute to the development of chronic diseases, the role of nutrition, physical activity, and other lifestyle choices, and the socio-cultural, economic,
and environmental factors influencing health outcomes. By synthesizing current research and case studies from various regions, the paper offers a comprehensive analysis of how global dietary patterns and lifestyle behaviors contribute to chronic disease prevention and provides recommendations for public health policy and interventions.
