This section includes a set of behavioural factors for which a clear-cut association with health problems (physical, mental) has been established. These factors are also susceptible to appropriate health promotion interventions. Consistent with the ECHI shortlist, this group includes smoking, alcohol use, drug use, food consumption, physical activity and breastfeeding.The items that are included in the ECHI shortlist can be viewed in  ECHI-shortlist.
Smoking, Alcohol use, Breastfeeding and Physical activity have already been implemented as EUphacts. Drug use has already been implemented as an EC Health Indicator data presentation.
Also see the EUphocus Health Inequalities, which contains an overview of inequalities in lifestyle.
