Il 90% dei casi di diabete,
il 80% delle malattie coronarie,
il 70% della mortalità cardiovascolare,
il 50% della mortalità per cancro e
il 40% delle demenze
possono essere attribuiti alla mancata aderenza a uno stile di vita sano. Una dieta equilibrata, l'attività fisica regolare integrata nella vita quotidiana, e un forte senso di comunità contribuiscono notevolmente alla salute e al benessere.
La piattaforma 4Habits usa l’intelligenza artificiale (IA), big data, e algoritmi avanzati basati sulle più recenti ricerche scientifiche per effettuare un check-up periodico dei fattori di rischio di fragilità e trasformare in abitudine un sano stile di vita.
