Most people don't know the road to wellness

A research group from University College London and Mount Sinai School of Medicine, New York, has found that an alarming number of people do not know that lifestyle factors contribute to two of the most prevalent and life threatening diseases; cardiovascular disease and cancer. In a large survey it was found that only 9% and 2% of people could identify four lifestyle risk factors for heart disease and cancer respectively. In fact the report found that, 1 in 10 people could not identify any risk factors at all [1].
