D1. Resources Explanation
Six in ten Americans live with at least one chronic disease, like heart disease and stroke,
cancer, or diabetes (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2022). These
diseases are the leading driver of healthcare costs and the leading cause of death
and disability in America. Most chronic diseases can be prevented by eating well,
being physically active, avoiding tobacco and excessive drinking, and getting
regular health screenings (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2022).
