We Face an Epidemic ofUnparalleled Proportions
• More than 1.7 million Americans die of a chronic disease each year
• One-third of the years of potential life lost before age 65 is due to chronic disease
• Four chronic diseases—heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes—cause almost two-thirds of all deaths each year
![Page 19: Chronic Illness and Disease Prevention](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022070411/568147c3550346895db5066e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
We Face an Epidemic ofUnparalleled Proportions
• Approximately 33% of all U.S. deaths (about 700,000 deaths each year) can be attributed to these three health-damaging behaviors …
– tobacco use
– lack of physical activity
– poor eating habits Sources:

Disability and Diminished Quality of Life Chronic, disabling conditions cause major limitations in activity for 1 of every 10 Americans (30 million people)
Arthritis • number one cause of disability• affects nearly 1 of every 3 adults in the US
Stroke • left 1 million Americans with disabilities
Diabetes • leading cause of kidney failure in adults• more than 60% leg and foot amputations are
among people with diabetes
