[mercho]

Hey everyone,
I have an assesment and i am stuck on one of the questions:

"Evaluate ways in which education, and lifestyle change could be used to improve the health of Australians".

I know what it generally means, but some help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

The diseases which account for the most deaths in Australia each year are lifestyle related. Lack of Education is one factor which can attribute to the development of risk factors/ risk behaviour for the diseases. For example, people early in the century were not aware of the link between smoking and lung cancer and therefore, there was a huge increase of the incidence of lung cancer after ciggarette introduction. Education empowers the individual so they have more control over their lifestyle choices.
