Abstract:
Do health behaviors cluster together as health lifestyles in adolescence? Are these lifestyles socially patterned? Do these lifestyles impact physical health into adulthood? To answer these questions, we employed data from Waves 1 and 4 of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health ( n = 7,827). Our latent class analysis revealed four health lifestyles: (a) low risk, (b) moderate risk with substance use, (c) moderate risk with inactivity, and (d) high risk. As suggested by health lifestyle theory, membership in these classes varied according to gender, race-ethnicity, and family structure. Consistent with the life course perspective, regression analyses indicated that those in the high-risk lifestyle tend to exhibit worse health in adolescence and adulthood than those in the low-risk lifestyle. Our findings confirm that socially patterned lifestyles can be observed in adolescence, and these lifestyles are potentially important for understanding the distribution of physical health across the early life course.

Abstract:
Purpose: It is widely known that the risk of lifestyle-related diseases can be reduced by reviewing lifestyles, and a variety of efforts for their prevention, such as health education, are being implemented. This study examined community residents’ lifestyle awareness, examining their views on their health and lifestyles, age, and lifestyle related diseases. Methods: Study subjects were 180 healthy people (28 men and 152 women) who participated in a health checkup. Participants answered a questionnaire about their awareness of health and lifestyle and their views of disorders. Subsequent measurements of speed of sound (SOS), acceleration plethysmography (APG), and visceral fat area (VFA) were also obtained. Results: The results of the study suggest that age was correlated with some health-related attitudes and behaviors. When health awareness among members of a group is high, it is necessary to provide them with the required information and continuing intervention to motivate them to continue their health improvement. Conclusion: It seems that health awareness influences lifestyle, and its improvement slows the progress of lifestyle related diseases and reduces the effects of aging.

Abstract:
The problem of overweight children is an increasing public health concern in the United States. Many children today consume diets that are high in fat, lack regular physical activity, and receive minimal amounts of nutrition education at school. School-based education about nutrition and healthy lifestyles provides an opportunity for intervention with all children. A program for 4th- and 5th-grade students was designed to increase the student’s knowledge about nutrition and healthy lifestyles. After implementation of the program, there was a significant increase in student knowledge of nutrition and healthy lifestyles as determined by a pretest and posttest evaluation. The results have implications for school nurses because childhood behaviors have such a profound impact on future adult lifestyle choices.

Abstract:
While the health-enhancing benefits of exercise and good nutrition have been well documented, the ability of health professionals to encourage healthier lifestyle behaviors among those they serve continues to prove challenging. Creating the conditions where healthier living can both occur and be sustained requires thinking beyond the traditional provision of services and prescriptions that occur in healthcare settings. Healthy Lifestyle Centers are emerging as a way of deploying lifestyle medicine practices. Turning these centers into cooperative businesses has the potential to make them more effective. Cooperative business principles are well established, and they enable individuals to become makers and producers of their own healthy lifestyles, providing a greater opportunity for sustained lifestyles changes. The purpose of this article is to further examine the role of engagement practices and coproduction as they relate to cooperative business models and to propose a framework for a Cooperative Healthy Lifestyle Center.

Research in lifestyle risks is becoming more and more important, particularly with reference to what is generally known as “unhealthy diets”. The Law is now firmly established as a prominent instrument of Public Health. There are several distinctive methods of legal intervention targeted at counteracting overweight and promoting healthier lifestyles. In this paper we examine several measures that have been adopted and discuss whether Law should foster healthy diets. Our purpose is to examine the threats of falling into a paternalistic attitude when devising any regulatory intervention aimed at promoting a healthier lifestyle.

Abstract:
Consumer lifestyle is considered one of the important predictors of sustainable consumption behavior at the individual, community and societal levels. In this paper, the healthy lifestyle of consumers is analyzed and defined as the lifestyle that explains how people live in terms of health. This study focuses on consumers’ healthy lifestyle clusters and offers an updated healthy lifestyle measurement tool that can be used to segment consumers into specific segments according to six healthy lifestyle domains: physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual and intellectual health. An online survey with 645 respondents of different socio-demographic profiles was conducted in Lithuania. Based on data collected through questionnaires, specific segments were identified using self-organizing maps and cluster analysis methods. The findings suggest that four different segments could represent consumers concerning their healthy lifestyles. The results will be of use to companies initiating marketing campaigns to target different consumer groups with their brands and offering healthy lifestyle-related products and services to consumers in Lithuania. The findings are also valuable for public policymakers and opinion leaders who foster healthy lifestyles and seek to form a public opinion regarding sustainable consumption.

Abstract:
BackgroundHealthy lifestyles prevent cardiovascular disease and are increasingly recognized in relation to mental health but longitudinal studies are limited. We examined bi-directional associations between mood disorders and healthy lifestyles in a cohort followed for 5 years.MethodParticipants were aged 26–36 years at baseline (2004–2006) and 31–41 years at follow-up (2009–2011). At follow-up, lifetime mood disorders (depression or dysthymia) were retrospectively diagnosed with the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. A five-item lifestyle score (comprising body mass index, non-smoking, alcohol consumption, leisure time physical activity and healthy diet) was measured at both time points. Linear and log multinomial regression determined if mood disorder before baseline predicted changes in lifestyle (n= 1041). Log binomial regression estimated whether lifestyle at baseline predicted new episodes of mood disorder (n= 1233). Covariates included age, sex, socio-economic position, parental and marital status, social support, major life events, cardiovascular disease history, and self-rated physical and mental health.ResultsA history of mood disorder before baseline predicted unfavourable trajectories of lifestyle over follow-up, including somewhat lower risk of improvement [relative risk (RR) 0.76, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.56–1.03] and greater risk of worsening (RR 1.46, 95% CI 0.99–2.15) of lifestyle independent of confounding factors. Higher lifestyle scores at baseline were associated with a 22% (RR 0.76, 95% CI 0.61–0.95) reduced risk of first episodes of mood disorder, independent of confounding factors.ConclusionsHealthy lifestyles and mood disorders are closely related. Our results suggest that healthy lifestyles may not only reduce cardiovascular disease but also promote mental health.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectiveHealth care workers performing rescue tasks in large-scale disaster areas are usually challenged in terms of physical and mental endurance, which can affect their lifestyles. Nevertheless, data on whether health care workers tend to adopt healthy lifestyles after disasters are limited. This paper compares the adoption of healthy lifestyle behaviors among health care workers with that among non–health care workers in a postdisaster area.MethodsThis cross-sectional observational study was conducted in August 2016. The Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II questionnaire was used to interview 261 health care workers and 848 non–health care workers.ResultsResults of the multivariable linear models showed that health care workers had lower physical activity levels (ß=−1.363, P<.0001), worse stress management (ß=−1.282, P<.0001), slower spiritual growth (ß=−1.228, P=.002), and poorer interpersonal relationships (ß=−0.814, P=.019) than non–health care workers. However, no significant differences were found in either nutrition (ß=−0.362, P=.319) or health responsibility (ß=−0.421, P=.283).ConclusionsHealth care workers had less healthy lifestyle behaviors, including physical activity, stress management, spiritual growth, and interpersonal relationships. Further studies are needed to develop health-improving interventions for health care workers in postdisaster areas. (Disaster Med Public Health Preparedness. 2019;13:230–235)

Abstract:
Research focused on health behaviors of online graduate students is sparse. Health psychology graduate training prepares individuals to share health information with others; the information may be more credible if they present a healthy appearance. The present study tested concepts from social cognitive theory (general perceived self-efficacy) and self-determination theory (autonomy, competence, and relatedness basic needs) to determine predictive value for graduate students’ engaging in health behaviors. Participants were 121 (29 health psychology group, 92 other programs group) online graduate students who lived in the United States and attended the same online university, recruited from multiple social media sources. The study used a static comparison quasi-experimental design to examine data from an online survey. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation, chi-square tests for independence, independent samples t-tests, ANOVA, MANOVA, and binary logistic regression. The health behaviors did not differ between the two graduate student groups. General perceived self-efficacy, autonomy, relatedness, and competency mean scores did not predict engaging in health behaviors. A significant negative correlation for the total sample was found between autonomy and body mass index. Positive social change may result from research focused on the best means to encourage health psychologists to regularly engage in health behaviors to the extent of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommended levels. By internalizing and modeling good health, health psychologists will add credibility to their message and help to mitigate the connection between premature death from chronic disease due to lack of engaging in a voluntary healthy lifestyle.

Abstract:
Type 2 diabetes is the fastest growing health threat to the UK, with prevalence rising 60% over the past decade. Those with Type 2 diabetes carry twice the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, a condition which claims the lives of the majority of adults in the UK. A significant proportion of cardio-metabolic disease could be prevented through improvements in lifestyle. Technological advancements, motorised transport and an increase in desk based work, have paved the way for physical inactivity to be norm in modern society. Clinical and government strategies to target unhealthy lifestyles are currently lacking. The aim of this thesis was to explore lifestyle related behaviours in cardio-metabolic disease, with a view to improving clinical care. A UK population based study (n=502,664) demonstrates that those with cardio-metabolic disease are characterised by low physical activity, sedentary behaviour and poor sleep. Combining all three behaviours exposes individuals to greater cardio-metabolic risk. A cross-sectional study (n=57) indicates that there are significant cardiac abnormalities in those with metabolic disease in the absence of overt heart disease. Finally, a randomised controlled trial (n=28) provides evidence that exercise can be used as a therapeutic strategy to improve cardiac structure and function in adults with Type 2 diabetes, and thereby moderate cardiac risk in this patient group. This thesis delivers two clear messages; 1) lifestyle behaviours remain significant unaddressed risk factors and 2) physical activity and exercise strategies should be used as therapies to reduce risk and improve cardio-metabolic health. Looking ahead, the results from the this study highlight the need for lifestyle behaviours to be part of the prevention and management strategies for cardio-metabolic health, and support the NHS’s 5 year plan to encourage healthier lifestyles as a priority.

Abstract:
Breast cancer is a leading cause of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death among women in the US. Although many risk factors for breast cancer are known, few are modifiable and little is known about ways to prevent its incidence. Early-life body size is inversely associated with both premenopausal and postmenopausal breast cancer risk, suggesting an excess risk in lean girls. In a prospective analysis within the Nurses’ Health Study (NHS) II, Chapter 1 examines whether adolescent physical activity mitigates the excess risk of breast cancer associated with early-life body leanness. Lean girls were at higher risk of breast cancer, regardless of the level of adolescent physical activity; however, the association was slightly, though not significantly, attenuated among the most active girls. Breast cancer is hormone-related cancer; estrogen metabolites (EM) are both estrogenic and genotoxic, suggesting factors that alter the pattern of estrogen metabolism may contribute to breast carcinogenesis. With the application of advanced technology that measures 15 different individual estrogens and EM in urine, Chapter 2 examines the associations of dietary fiber and macronutrients intake with detailed estrogen metabolism in a cross-sectional analysis within the NHSII. Few significant associations were identified: a positive association between total fiber intake and 4-methoxyestradiol, an inverse association between total fiber intake and 17-epiestriol, and inverse associations for polyunsaturated and trans-fat intakes with 17-epiestriol. The tissue-specific responsiveness to potentially carcinogenic hormones, estrogen and progesterone, is partially regulated by the tissue expression of receptors that bind these hormones. Using benign breast biopsy samples collected in a nested case-control study within the NHS and NHSII, Chapter 3 assesses estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), and proliferative marker Ki67 expression in normal breast tissue in relation to subsequent breast cancer risk. In this case-control analysis, PR expression in normal breast tissue was significantly positively associated with breast cancer risk in premenopausal women. ER and Ki67 expression was not significantly associated with breast cancer risk; however, our power was limited. Results of this dissertation help elucidate the underlying biologic mechanisms of breast cancer and enhance our understanding of the link between risk factors and breast cancer risk.

Abstract:
Mental toughness (MT) originated within elite sport and was identified as an attribute of success. MT has emerged as being important for enhancing health-related lifestyle factors (HRLF; e.g., physical activity). Investigating the healthiness of one’s lifestyle appears a timely area to research given the current health status of the population. Therefore, the aim of this thesis was to investigate MT in relation to HRLF and weight loss. Study One investigated MT and HRLF in university students (n = 167). Self-reported MT, physical activity, exercise barriers, dietary behaviour, and psychological wellbeing were recorded. MT was significantly different between regular exercisers (M = 3.43 ± .42) and non-regular exercisers (M = 3.24 ± .54, p < .05). Components of eating identity, exercise barriers, and psychological wellbeing, were significantly correlated with MT. Study Two longitudinally investigated weight loss progress, and adherence to a weight loss support group, in slimming club members who were pursuing a weight loss goal (n = 132). MT and eating identity were assessed at baseline, three-months, and six-months, and weight was recorded at weekly meetings. Overall MT was not significantly related to weight loss (r = -.15, p > 0.05) or adherence to the service (r = .03, p > 0.05). Study Three sampled individuals who held a weight loss goal, but were not attending a weight loss support club (n = 78). Overall MT was not significantly related to weight loss (r = -.21, p > 0.05). MT was not significantly different between weight loss goal achievers (M = 3.62 ± .49) and non-goal achievers (M =3.42 ± .38, p > 0.05). Thus, irrespective of whether structured support is received, overall MT was not related to weight loss progress. II Study Four investigated the experiences of high (n = 9) and low (n = 7) mentally tough individuals pursing a weight loss goal. High and low MT individuals, identified using the MTQ48, were interviewed. Thematic analysis revealed that amongst the high mentally tough individuals, those who prioritised leading a healthy lifestyle reported weight loss success compared to those who prioritised other goals. Strategies to overcome low levels of MT (e.g., control), as well as receive additional support, appeared crucial for successful weight loss in low MT individuals. Study Five further investigated the low MT individuals’ (n = 7) perceptions, experiences, and attitudes, towards weight loss. Low MT individuals were sampled based on their MT score assessed via the MTQ48. Vignette based interviews extended the findings in Study Four. Thematic analysis revealed key findings, including the potential to change low MT individuals’ perceptions to enhance behaviour change. Overall, this thesis expanded the understanding of MT; the processes that one experiences when trying to lose weight appears to differentiate between high and low MT individuals, which offers an explanation as to why MT did not appear to play a significant role in weight loss outcomes. These findings challenged the predominant contemporary understanding of MT and demonstrated that MT was not associated with behaviour change to achieve weight loss.

Abstract:
In Japan, a specific health checkup has been conducted for people aged 40 and over since 2008. In the specific health checkup, public health nurses and dietitians provide health guidance according to the level of health based on the results of test values and questionnaire items. However, the content of the guidance for lifestyle improvement varies depending on the experience and judgment of the instructor. And the guidance is based only on the health checkup result report. Therefore, the evidence for lifestyle improvement is weak and does not lead to actual lifestyle improvement.In order to solve this problem, we have developed a system that predicts future test values based on past test values. In our previous research, we constructed a highly accurate model for predicting the next year's test values based on the past's health checkup test using a multichannel deep convolutional neural network, which is a type of machine learning. In addition, the features as the basis for the model's predictions were analyzed by sensitivity analysis in order to evaluate the validity of the predictions. However, there are the cases that some examinees may suddenly change their lifestyles, even if similar trends were observed in the previous year. In addition, even if the same health guidance was given in the previous year, the awareness of lifestyle improvement differ among individuals. In addition, even if the same health guidance was given in the previous year, the awareness of lifestyle improvement differ among individuals. The questionnaire includes items that ask about the awareness of lifestyle improvement, and these items have variations in the actual degree of lifestyle improvement among individuals. Thus, there is uncertainty in the prediction of test values for each examinee. In order to be convincing and safe, it is necessary considering the uncertainty of the previous year's data in predicting test values. The purpose of this study is to predict the test value considering the uncertainty of the test value due to the awareness of lifestyle improvement among examinees. A bayesian neural network (BNN) is a network that considers the weights in a neural network as random variables generated based on a certain probability distribution. We constructed a highly accurate BNN prediction model using the health checkup results concluding the basic data (age and sex), the test values of the past two years, and the results of questionnaire items as inputs, and the test values of the next year as outputs. The incidence of lifestyle diseases are predicted based on these diagnostic criteria using the BNN model outputs. In the future, we will compare the prediction of disease onset by the BNN model with that by the conventional neural network model using the actual diagnosis results of lifestyle diseases, and examine the explanatory of the two models.

Abstract:
Although population health cannot be measured in exact measurable form, a large number of concepts have been developed, and measurements have been framed through the presence of many different indicators. The impact of the environment on human health is well known. However, attention should be paid that no significant number of papers focused on the co-occurrence of environmental and lifestyle determinants on health status. This paper aims to emphasize the joint influence of environmental and lifestyle determinants on the European population's health status. The study was based on the World Health Organization statistical data, and 50 European countries were included. Three data sets were observed: Health status, Environmental, and Lifestyle indicators. Taking into account a large number of data, multivariate analyzes were applied. Results indicate that co-occurrence of environmental and lifestyle determinants have a significant impact on the health status in Europe.

Abstract: The aim of the study is to identify risk factors that increase the likelihood of chronic non-communicable diseases in railway workers, as well as the state of conditions for employees to lead a healthy lifestyle. Materials and methods: The research was carried out by the method of online questionnaire of employees. A quota sample was used to select respondents. The total volume of online survey is 13,595 people or 1.5% of the staff of Russian Railways. Also interviewed were 1,531 employees of FPK JSC or 2.8% of the staff number of employees. The questionnaire contained a general part, passport part and questions on the main components of a healthy lifestyle, compiled on the basis of the STEPS toolkit. The results of the study: 29% to 71% of respondents adhere to the principles of rational nutrition. The absence of hypodynamy depending on the profession was revealed in no more than half of the respondents. Never smoked from 25% to 65% of workers. An excellent level of commitment to healthy lifestyle was noted in 25%...52% respondents. The largest number of employees who comply with the principles of healthy life is shown among electromechanics, economists, technologists and train crew workers.

Abstract:
Patient Generated Health Data (PGHD is not new but it has gained more attention these past years due to the advent of smart devices, remote monitoring devices and many applications on various smart devices. PGHD reflects medications and treatment, lifestyle choices, and health history. Unlike traditional medical visits, where clinicians collect and manage data within their offices, PGHD is collected by patients throughout the course of their day and provides an insight of how they are responding to treatments or lifestyle choices. Examples include blood glucose monitoring or blood pressure readings using home health equipment, exercise and diet tracking using mobile applications or wearable devices such as the Fitbit or other smart watches.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The aim of this scoping review is to scope the body of literature, clarify concepts, investigate research conduct and to identify knowledge gaps about the physical activity (PA) behavior in a context of planetary health. The proposed study will review the existing literature considering PA beyond the scope of mere health behaviour, focusing on its potential impacts on planetary health and sustainable development. We will differentiate the PA behavior of the PA facilities or context like green-space or blue-space. Specific objectives are to provide knowledge about: 1. Which PA behaviors are sustainable for the planet and which are not. 2. What are the characteristics of sustainable PA behaviors. 3. What are the positive and negative impacts of PA behaviors on planetary health. Condition being studied: In this case, it is studied how the active lifestyle and the practice of physical activities, exercise or sports of people affect planetary health.

Abstract:
Historically, non-communicable diseases (NCDs) have typically been associated with tobacco and alcohol use. However, in recent decades increased levels of overweightness and obesity, mostly caused by poor eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle, have increased diabetes, cancers, and cardiovascular diseases. There is a general agreement that sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs) are bad for one’s health. As such, measures to reduce their consumption would be expected to positively impact population health. In this working paper, we develop and report on an Excel-based model, in which we simulate the impact of an SSB tax on the prevalence of overweightness and obesity. The model starts with a baseline scenario, which takes cognisance that a 10 KES specific tax already exists on all soft drinks. A sugar-based SSB tax is then introduced. The tax is levied as an amount per gram of sugar, with or without a tax-free threshold. Other than reducing the demand for SSBs, a sugar-based SSB also creates strong incentives for manufacturers to reformulate their products to reduce the sugar content. The model predicts that the average BMI would decrease across all age groups decreasing the prevalence of overweightness and obesity. The magnitude of the decrease in the prevalence of overweightness and obesity depends on the size of the SSB tax. For realistic and politically feasible values of the SSB tax, the prevalence of overweightness and obesity is expected to decrease by between 5 per cent and 10 per cent. Should Kenya implement a sugar-based tax on SSBs, over and above the current excise tax on soft drinks, the government should clarify that such a tax aims to enhance public health; raising additional revenue should be a secondary consideration. Also, implementing a sugar based SSB tax should be part of a more comprehensive strategy to reduce overweightness and obesity, because by itself the impact of the tax is modest.
