In recent decades, we have witnessed an exponential increase in chronic diseases, which are becoming one of the major health challenges in modern society.
This trend is not only worrisome but also serves as a reminder of how closely our lifestyle is linked to our health.
Research indicates that environmental changes, such as air pollution,
processed foods, water pollution, and chemically treated clothing,
significantly contribute to the rising prevalence of chronic diseases
like cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, and certain types of
cancer.
However, all is not lost.
By making small, yet significant, adjustments to our lifestyle, we can take major steps toward improving our overall health. It's important to become more aware of the impact our daily decisions have on our health and the environment. This involves choosing a healthier, balanced diet; engaging in regular physical activity; reducing stress; and avoiding harmful habits, such as smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.
The video below briefly illustrates the impact of environmental
changes on the exponential growth of chronic diseases.
