For Everyone<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

You do not need to make a revolution in your life to take care of your health. Small, everyday decisions about nutrition, physical activity, alcohol, or tobacco and nicotine use can make a difference to your health and well-being (1)<\/span>.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n

At the same time, health does not depend solely on willpower. Our choices are also influenced by the conditions in which we live, learn, work, and spend our free time. The price and availability of products, advertising, public spaces, and local services can make it easier or more difficult to lead a healthy lifestyle (2)<\/span>.<\/span>\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n

Nutrition<\/b> <\/span>\n
\n <\/p>\n

Healthy eating does not have to be either perfect or complicated. Eating more vegetables, fruit, whole-grain products, and legumes, drinking water more often, and limiting foods high in salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats can support long-term health (3)<\/span>.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n

<\/span>Physical activity<\/b> <\/span>\n
\n <\/p>\n

Every movement counts. Walking, cycling, using a wheelchair, dancing, playing, gardening, and other everyday activities all support health. More physical activity and less time spent sitting\u2014in ways that fit your life and abilities\u2014can bring real health benefits (4)<\/span>.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n <\/section>\n

<\/b><\/span>Alcohol<\/b>\n
\n <\/p>\n

Reducing alcohol consumption lowers health risks. There is no level of alcohol consumption that is completely risk-free. The less alcohol you drink, the lower your risk of developing cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and experiencing other harms associated with alcohol consumption (5)<\/span>.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

\n
\n
\n
\n

<\/span><\/b><\/span>Tobacco and nicotine<\/b>\n
\n <\/p>\n

Tobacco damages almost every organ in the body and causes cancer, cardiovascular diseases, lung diseases, and other serious health conditions. Nicotine is highly addictive. It is best not to start smoking at all, but people who want to quit do not have to do it alone\u2014advice and support can help (6)<\/span>.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n <\/section>\n

What Can You Do?<\/span>\n <\/p>\n
