Popis: Chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and respiratory conditions, represent a significant global health burden, leading to substantial mortality, morbidity, and economic strain on healthcare systems. Preventive medicine aims to reduce the incidence and impact of these conditions through a range of strategies, including lifestyle interventions, vaccination, early detection, and community-based initiatives. This review summarizes current preventive approaches, examining their effectiveness in reducing chronic disease risks and highlighting the economic and health benefits for populations. The article also explores barriers to effective preventive care, including socioeconomic and policy-related challenges, and discusses future directions in preventive medicine, such as personalized prevention and technology-driven strategies. By emphasizing the potential of preventive measures, this review underscores the importance of integrating these strategies into healthcare systems to alleviate the chronic disease burden worldwide.
