3 Influential Factors in Healthy Living (IFHL) surveyed a random sample of Colorado adults in 2014 about selected health behaviors. IFHL was conducted by the Community Epidemiology & Program Evaluation Group (CEPEG), University of Colorado Denver, in response to a request from the Cancer, Cardiovascular Disease and Pulmonary Disease Grants Program ("CCPD") of the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). The study domains included four chronic conditions diabetes, high blood pressure (hypertension), high blood cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), and unhealthy weight. Marijuanarelated behaviors and attitudes were also asked, given recent legalization of "recreational" marijuana sales. Interview questions focused on attitudes, health risk behaviors, and both self management and interpersonal (health care, workplace) management of any of the four chronic conditions. Interviews were conducted during December 2013 through April The statewide report is available online. * The current report provides selected results for each of 21 Health Statistics Regions (HSRs) defined by CDPHE. Estimates of diabetes and high blood pressure are based on self report that a medical provider diagnosed the respective condition. Results are weighted to estimate prevalence and confidence intervals for the Colorado adult population. List of Tables 1. Access to Food 2. Locations where fruits and vegetables are purchased 3.

6 Perceptions of fruit and vegetable availability, variety, quality and cost Nearly three fourths (72.5%, 70.2% to 74.8%) would like a larger variety of fruits and vegetables available in their neighborhood. This desire was more highly endorsed in several regions: o Region 1: 89.1% (78.4%, 99.9%) o Region 5: 90.1% (82.9%, 97.3%) o Region 9: 89.2% (81.2%, 97.1%) o Region 17: 89.7% (82.5%, 97.0%) Nearly three fourths (71.7%, 69.3% to 74.0%) would like fruits and vegetables to be more available in their neighborhood. This desire was more highly endorsed in several regions: o Region 1: 87.9% (77.1%, 98.7%) o Region 5: 86.5% (76.7%, 96.3%) o Region 9: 90.6% (84.5%, 96.6%) o Region 18: 83.6% (75.8%, 91.4%) Two thirds (66.6%, 64.2% to 69.1%) would like better quality fruits and vegetables available in their neighborhood. This desire was more highly endorsed in two regions: o Region 8: 86.4% (76.7%, 96.1%) o Region 9: 82.2% (72.0%, 92.4%) More than one third (38.8%, 36.2% to 41.5%) said the cost of fruits and vegetables keeps them from buying. This view was more highly endorsed in two regions: o Region 1: 58.3% (41.6%, 75.1%) o Region 6: 75.1% (64.0%, 86.2%) The average number of fruit and vegetable servings did not differ among regions, nor did perceived ease of getting to the grocery store.
