Eating a balanced diet and being physically active are two of the most important things you can do to be and stay healthy at any age. Plus, they both have similar effects on our health. These include reducing the risk of chronic diseases, such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, and some cancers and associated disabilities; preventing weight gain and/or promoting weight loss; and improving overall well-being.
Cigarette smoking remains the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S. No tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, are safe. Quitting smoking now improves your health and reduces your risk of heart disease, cancer, lung disease, and other smoking-related illnesses.

When you or someone you love has a mental illness, the potential for crisis is never far from one’s mind. Crisis episodes can feel overwhelming and shocking.

Vaccination is the most important thing we can do to protect ourselves and our children against ill health. They prevent millions of deaths worldwide every year.
Substance abuse occurs when you use alcohol, prescription medicine, and other legal and illegal substances too much or in the wrong way. It affects every part of your life.
