We offer seminars and literature that target chronic diseases—such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes—which are the leading causes of death and disability in the United States.
These diseases account for 7 of every 10 deaths and affect the quality of life for millions of Americans. Although chronic diseases are among the most common and costly health problems, they are also among the most preventable.
