LEVELS OF DISEASE CONTROL

There are different levels of disease prevention:

PRIMARY PREVENTION

Primary prevention means taking action to prevent the disease from occurring in the first place. For example, you should exercise regularly to reduce your risk of developing heart disease.

SECONDARY PREVENTION

Secondary prevention means taking action to detect a disease early and then take steps to treat it or prevent it from getting worse. An example is having regular mammograms to detect breast cancer early.

TERTIARY PREVENTION

Tertiary prevention means taking action to reduce the effects of a disease that has already occurred. It might involve rehabilitation after a heart attack to help you regain function.

HEALTHY BEHAVIORS FOR DISEASES PREVENTION

The best way to prevent disease is to adopt a healthy lifestyle, which falls under primary prevention. Some lifestyle choices that can help you prevent disease are:

EAT A HEALTHY DIET

A balanced diet is essential for good health. Include plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains in your daily meals. Avoid processed foods and refined sugars as much as possible.

Healthy eating plays a big role in your health. Eating healthy foods can help reduce your risk of developing a serious illness.

GET REGULAR EXERCISE

Exercise is good for your physical health and mental well-being. A moderate amount of exercise is the key to maintaining a healthy weight and preventing disease.

Examples of chronic diseases are heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes. They are responsible for the majority of deaths in the United States each year. But these diseases are often preventable. Taking steps to improve your health can go a long way toward preventing them.

Physical activity can also help improve your mood.

AVOID TOBACCO PRODUCTS

Cigarette smoking is a leading cause of preventable death in the United States. If you smoke, quitting is the best thing you can do for your health. If you don't smoke, don't start. Avoiding tobacco products altogether is the best way to prevent tobacco-related illnesses.

Tobacco use is a major risk factor for many serious diseases, including cancer, heart disease, and stroke. You should also avoid other people when they are smoking. Secondhand smoke can be just as harmful as smoking yourself.

GET ADEQUATE SLEEP

Most adults need between 7 and 8 hours of sleep each night. Getting enough rest is critical for maintaining your health.

Sleep is important for your physical and mental health. Getting enough rest can help improve your mood, boost your immune system, and prevent chronic diseases

Stress can take a toll on your physical and mental health. Learning how to manage stress can help you stay healthy and prevent disease.

There are many different ways to manage stress, like exercise, relaxation techniques, or therapy.
