The onset of life style diseases starts in the first decade itself and how fast it will progress depends on the lifestyle adopted by the individual which are modifiable as well as non-modifiable hereditory risk factors. As the Indians are the most susceptible race as far as life style diseases are concerned and the onset among Indians is much earlier compared to Western population thus we need to spread awareness about preventive health in young age and adopt healthy life style to remain fit and healthy.

The 80% of life style diseases are preventable but people always ignore this important aspect till these diseases actually affect their health said Dr Puri adding we are therefore launching a preventive health and fitness program to motivate people to adopt health life style .
