Cardiovascular diseases (CVD), cancer, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes stand out. NCDs cause 41 million deaths each year (71% of the world total). Cardiovascular disease accounts for the majority of these deaths (17.9 million per year) <sup>(<a href="http://revistas.urp.edu.pe/index.php/RFMH/article/download/4354/5510?inline=1#2">2</a>)</sup>. In addition to causing premature deaths, these diseases lead to complications and disabilities, limit productivity, and drug treatments are expensive, so early detection and timely treatment should be a priority <sup>(<a href="http://revistas.urp.edu.pe/index.php/RFMH/article/download/4354/5510?inline=1#2">2</a>)</sup>. Lifestyle medicine (MEV) has gained relevance in the prevention, treatment and reversal of most NCDs, directly addressing their causes <sup>(<a href="http://revistas.urp.edu.pe/index.php/RFMH/article/download/4354/5510?inline=1#3">3</a>)</sup>. We will present the case of a young man with multiple risk factors and a diagnosis of arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia and insulin resistance. We carry out an intervention through the MEV to improve the patient’s condition and health. At the 6-month follow-up, significant changes in habits and laboratory parameters were achieved.</p>}, number={1}, journal={Revista de la Facultad de Medicina Humana}, author={Delorenzo Ch, Natalia}, year={2021}, month={Nov.} }
