The great challenge remains how to promote the adoption of healthy behaviors that can reduce risk factors for heart disease. In São Paulo, Brazil, the Healthy Lifestyle Multiplier Students program is based on studies that train older students ("multipliers") as peer educators for younger students.

This intervention focused on physical activity, healthy diet, and the health effects of cigarette and alcohol consumption. | ||
