Proactive Health Model Integrating Sports, Health and Education Is an Important Tool for Chronic Disease Prevention and Control in Adolescents

Abstract

Since the convening of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, public health of the Chinese has significantly improved, but chronic diseases have hindered its further development. Proactive health is a positive approach to health management, with an emphasis on the prevention of diseases through a healthy lifestyle, which is of great significance to chronic disease prevention and control. Chronic diseases are becoming more prevalent among young age groups in China; thus, it is necessary to advance chronic disease prevention to adolescence. The implementation of proactive health has marked effects on chronic disease prevention and health promotion in adolescents. The integration of sports, health and education is an important way to promote the implementation of proactive health in adolescents and facilitate their healthy development. However, the integration is still insufficient, so synergistic development of the three fields is needed to improve relevant measures and optimize the effects of proactive health on adolescents.
