We know that people are

The top 4 causes of
chronic conditions:
Alcohol, Smoking, Poor
Nutrition & Lack of Exercise
But are the “sick” (those with chronic conditions)
getting “sicker” in preventable ways?
(and therefore costing the economy more money)

Remember the Top 4 causes of chronic conditions: Alcohol,
Smoking, Poor Nutrition & Lack of
Exercise
But what if we constantly focused
on preventing and improving
just like we do with the “disease free”
( preventative care)??
Can we improve and even prevent
further unnecessary care by continuously addressing the causes (aka, the usual suspects: diet, exercise and
behavior)??
Can we improve and even prevent

Can we treat the basics: Sleep, Water Intake,
Exercise, Nutrition & Mental Wellness
and reduce the cost of care of
individuals with chronic conditions?

We believe every single individual –
“sick” or “disease free” can benefit by continuously focusing on the
basics.

Measures taken to prevent diseases (or injuries) AND to prevent further complications associated with the diagnosis of diseases. Rather than a focus on maintaining and sustaining one’s current state (or symptoms), the focus is on constantly improving.
