About Lifestyle and Behavior Change
Lifestyle and behavior changes are among the most effective interventions for preventing and managing cardiovascular disease (CVD), the leading cause of death globally. Risk factors such as poor diet, physical inactivity, smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and chronic stress significantly contribute to the development and progression of CVD.
Nurses play a pivotal role in encouraging and supporting patients to adopt healthier lifestyles, which can lead to substantial improvements in cardiovascular health and overall well-being.
