    Lifestyle diseases have become more common as countries become more developed. They are caused by an inappropriate relationship of people with their environment. They are different from other diseases because they are potentially preventable, and can be lowered with changes in diet, lifestyle and environment. Unlike other diseases, they can be prevented and managed by making minimal changes to one’s daily life. These are diseases caused by the unhealthy way one leads his life on a daily basis. Lifestyle diseases include diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure and certain types of cancer, arteriosclerosis, heart disease and overweight/obesity. Factors contributing to faulty lifestyle are sedentary lifestyle, smoking, alcohol, improper eating habits and stress. Commitment towards a healthy lifestyle forbidding `the unhealthy habits may allow some people to delay drug therapy or forgo it altogether. Research suggests that lifestyle changes have an important effect on long-term blood glucose control. This is especially true for adults older than 60. Even with medication, lifestyle improvements still provide a major boost in terms of blood glucose control, helping you keep the use of medication to a minimum. (L, 1999)
