Question

which diseases can be prevented or treated with healthy lifestyle choices? check all that apply. sickle cell disease huntingtons disease cardiovascular disease osteoporosis type 2 diabetes celiac disease

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Cardiovascular disease: A healthy lifestyle (e.g., balanced diet, regular exercise) can lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and reduce the risk of heart - related issues.
  • Osteoporosis: Weight - bearing exercises and a diet rich in calcium and vitamin D (through healthy food choices or supplements if needed) can help maintain bone density.
  • Type 2 diabetes: A healthy diet (controlling sugar and carbohydrate intake), regular physical activity, and maintaining a healthy weight can prevent or manage type 2 diabetes.

Sickle cell disease and Huntington's disease are genetic disorders. While some supportive care (like hydration for sickle cell) can be part of management, the core genetic cause cannot be altered by lifestyle. Celiac disease requires a strict gluten - free diet (which is a lifestyle change in terms of diet), but it is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten, and the 'treatment' is more about avoidance rather than a general 'healthy lifestyle' in the same sense as the other three (e.g., exercise does not 'treat' celiac).

Answer:

cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes
