HEALTHY LIFESTYLE

As per the definition by the World Health Organization (WHO), health is not merely the absence of disease or infirmity; it covers overall physical, mental and social well-being.

Recognizing the different types of addiction is undeniably crucial for effective addiction prevention, but it's equally vital to instill healthy living habits that keep individuals away from addiction. Having knowledge about factors directly impacting mental and physical health, such as balanced nutrition, sufficient sleep and regular physical activity, acts as a protective barrier against addiction risks.

Identifying, eliminating or lessening any factors that pose threats to health (social, environmental, economic, cultural and behavioral) along with increasing and disseminating protective factors fall under the realm of prevention. From a preventive standpoint, it's much simpler, more effective and cost-efficient to prevent a problem with potentially harmful consequences before it arises than to mitigate the resulting damages.
