This influence may be either positive or negative. Hundreds, if not thousands, of studies provide evidence that maintenance of a healthy weight, regular physical activity, not smoking cigarettes, and following sound nutritional and other health-promoting practices all profoundly impact health. Nutrition, in particular, plays a prominent role in multiple aspects of positive lifestyle and good health.Nutrition in Lifestyle Medicine: General Considerations
