Prevention of diseases is crucial for maintaining a healthy population and reducing healthcare costs. It involves adopting lifestyle habits such as regular exercise, a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, and managing stress effectively. Vaccinations also play a critical role in preventing infectious diseases. Routine health check-ups and screenings help detect conditions early when they are most treatable. Educating individuals about the importance of these preventive measures empowers them to take charge of their health and reduces the burden of preventable illnesses on society as a whole.
