Article Synopsis
- A study investigated the impact of smoking, physical activity, and diet on long-term mortality among 1,564 Italian men aged 45-64 over a period of 40 years.
- The results showed that smokers, sedentary individuals, and those with unhealthy diets had significantly higher risks of death from all causes, coronary heart disease, cardiovascular disease, and cancer, with notable hazard ratios indicating greater mortality risk.
- The presence of all three unhealthy lifestyle factors was linked to a loss of approximately 4.8 years of life in 20 years and 10.7 years in 40 years, highlighting the importance of healthy behaviors for survival in middle-aged men.
