And I was thinking about this, about Two months ago, I said, God, you know, that would be just an interesting question because I'm sure that we all manage our health differently to a certain extent. And I also have a feeling that it's a function of age.
Also, I believe it's a function of whether or not you have a particular medical condition that you're dealing with. either acutely or chronically.
What are the different types of health prevention discussed?
But regardless, we're in this mode of managing our health. So, Barry, I'm going to let you kind of kick it off a little bit and just say, okay, look, what's the story here? It's like you're a doc. You've seen patients, you know, all your career. And what is it about managing our health?
Well, I'd say it is a lot to talk about, and so I'm going to ask you and Clarence to give me the high sign if I'm, you know, when you want me to stop.
Okay, I just did.
No, I mean... Go ahead. You know, because at once, and with, I mean, both of you have been... involved in public health and community health for a long time. And, you know, from my perch, I was more in the weeds in a sense, you know, that frontline seeing patients.

How can primary prevention strategies impact health outcomes?

It's like it's overload and you get paralyzed at making decisions. But when we were kicking this around to talk a little bit about managing your health, the thing that came to mind is, you know, stuff that comes in the area mostly of what's called primary prevention. And I think actually we should probably nail down some definitions just so that our listening audience, you know, has a sense that when we talk about prevention, prevention, prevention, there's primary prevention, secondary prevention, and tertiary prevention. And I'm going to,
kind of give a brief definition for this, and please jump in if I stumble on one of these. But primary prevention is where you actually are able to prevent an illness or disease from ever happening. And so, you know, one example that's, you know, an easy one or used to be easy, but has now socially and politically has become a hot potato.
