ORLANDO, Fl – May 27, 2010 – According to a report recently published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, one of the JAMA/Archives journals, researchers note that there are four healthy lifestyle factors that can result in up to as much as an 80% reduction in the risk of developing the most common and deadly chronic diseases:  maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, following a healthy diet and never smoking.  Nonetheless, the cost of treating obesity-related medical problems, alone, reached $147 billion in 2009, thus making obesity an alarming national public health concern requiring a multi-faceted, multi-channel community- and corporate-based approach to effectively address the problem.  Moreover, The Washington Post reports that Medicare beneficiaries with multiple chronic illnesses currently see an average of 13 different physicians, fill 50 different prescriptions annually and are 100 times more likely to have an avoidable hospitalization than someone with no chronic conditions.
