Definitions
- Chronic physical disease and mental health concerns are common and costly. 6 in 10 U.S. adults have a chronic physical disease and 1 in 5 U.S. adults have a mental health concern, which together contribute to the greater than $4 trillion in annual healthcare costs.
- Examples of chronic physical diseases include, but are not limited to, alcohol use disorder, other substance use disorders, tobacco use and related conditions, heart disease, cognitive disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), obesity, stroke, lung cancer, colorectal cancer, other cancers, depression, anxiety, type 2 diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, asthma, liver failure, or chronic kidney disease.
- Typical courses of treatment for chronic diseases involve pharmaceutical and/or surgical treatments, including but not limited to chemotherapy, immunotherapy, thrombectomy, partial or full surgical resection, dialysis, organ transplantation, acetylcysteine, antihypertensives, antidiabetics, antilipidemics, weight loss drugs, antidepressants, benzodiazepines, anti-inflammatories, steroids, erythropoietin, FDA-approved pharmacotherapies for alcohol, tobacco, and other substance use disorders.
- Many chronic physical diseases are largely preventable. An estimated 40% of chronic disease risk, outcome, and cost is attributable to key modifiable lifestyle factors which co-occur, cluster, and interact. Most adults have two or more lifestyle risk factors. Thus, integrated approaches are needed for health monitoring and management. Lifestyle Medicine applies evidence-based lifestyle therapeutic interventions for improving core lifestyle factors in order to prevent, manage, or even reverse chronic physical disease. Lifestyle Medicine recognizes mental health as a core pillar of care; improving lifestyle factors can improve mental health.
