will help you to maintain a healthy weight.

Health risks can sometimes be confusing, but they’re important to understand. Knowing
the risks, you and your family may face can help you find ways to avoid health problems. It can
also keep you from fretting over unlikely threats. Knowing the risks and benefits of a medical
treatment can help you and your doctor make informed decisions. Taking care of yourself
prevents health problems and saves money by reducing the number of office visits and
medications you need. Self-care reduces the heavy costs of healthcare associated with disease.
Understanding health risks is key to making your own health care decisions.
