Primary Disease Prevention
Focuses on averting the onset of a chronic disorder altogether. In contrast, secondary and tertiary disease prevention aim to intervene in existing diseases and mitigate their effects by enabling early detection and providing appropriate treatment. This approach also seeks to reduce the likelihood of relapses and the establishment of chronic conditions through effective rehabilitation.
Promoting overall wellness with a specific emphasis on general health involves incorporating several key practices. These include efforts such as preventing and quitting tobacco use, engaging in regular daily exercise, practicing stress management, early detection and screening of chronic diseases, promoting nutrition education, weight management, and effective disease management. Integrating these wellness practices into one’s lifestyle can play a pivotal role in preventing the onset of chronic diseases and potentially extending life expectancy indefinitely.
