“Healthy Habits can keep chronic illness at bay, according to a study of more than 23,000 Germans.  Researchers looked at the lifestyles and health records of adults ages 35 to 65,  After about eight years of follow-up, they found that that ththose who had maintained a healthy weight, exercised for at least 31/2 hours a week, never smoked, and eaten plenty of fruit, vegetables, and whole grains were 78% less likely to develop cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or cancer than those who didn’t practice prevention.  Participants with all four positive habits had a 93% reduction in risk of developing diabetes.”  -Diabetes Forcast Nov. 09-
