Cancer and Prevention Mission, CMC Your health our commitment to you, from day one Obesity Impacts on health, community
Where do we intervene? Even if the entire U.S. population had access to excellent medical care which it does not only a small fraction of these deaths could be prevented. The single greatest opportunity to improve health and reduce premature deaths lies in personal behavior. In fact, behavioral causes account for nearly 40% of all deaths in the United States. http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejmsa073350#t=article
