Abstract

Lifestyle is a distinguishing (typical or personal) group of behaviors adopted by a person which includes one?s habits, customs, social group, mode of dress, general diet, kinds of entertainment, language characteristics and the manner in which one performs common daily activities of living. So, lifestyle is often an accurate reflection of our deepest values, attitudes, prejudices, moral standards, economic approach and personal philosophy. The most common Lifestyle diseases include hypertension, Diabetes Mellitus, Arthritis, Obesity, Insomnia etc. which are the major cause of mortality in today?s world. The incidence of lifestyle diseases like hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia and overweight/obesity associated with cardiovascular diseases is high on the rise. Cardio-vascular disorders continue to be the major cause of mortality representing about 30% of all deaths worldwide. With rapid economic development and increasing westernization of lifestyle in the past few decades, prevalence of these diseases has reached alarming proportions among Indians in the recent years.
