“…We demonstrated that most health behavior indicators have positive associations with the general health status of residents at the city level. Our findings are similar to those of an individual-level study based on the 2011 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination survey, which reported that increases in individual healthy behaviors such as mixed-grain diet, sleeping hours, exercise, and walking were positively associated with increases in general health status (as defined by EuroQol-5 Dimension and EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale) (20). Also, in a 9-yr longitudinal study of individual working-age residents of Finland between 2003 and 2012, positive changes in health behaviors (physical activity, dietary habits, alcohol consumption, and smoking status) improved well-being, defined as interest, happiness, ease in life, and less perceived loneliness (21).…”

Introduction Poor health behaviors, such as physical inactivity, exacerbate the overall health status of residents. Evidence regarding the impact of personal health behaviors on health status at the city level is lacking. Thus, we aimed to examine the association between health behaviors and good health status of residents of large US cities. Methods Our panel study used 2018 to 2022 American Fitness Index® data measured annually for the 100 most populous US cities. The study outcome was good health status of city residents, and exposures were their health behaviors—exercising, meeting aerobic activity guidelines, meeting both aerobic and strength activity guidelines, bicycling or walking to work, using public transportation to work, consuming two or more fruits or three or more vegetables per day, sleeping 7+ h·d−1, and current smoking habits. We adopted crude and multivariable-adjusted linear mixed and general linear models for our analyses. Results Mean values of the majority of health behavior factors were under 50% between 2018 and 2022. Higher percentages of city residents exercising, meeting aerobic activity guidelines, meeting both aerobic and strength activity guidelines, bicycling/walking to work, and consuming three or more vegetables or two or more fruits per day and lower percentage of residents who currently smoke were associated with higher percentages of good health status. Baseline percentages meeting aerobic activity guidelines, meeting both aerobic and strength activity guidelines, using public transportation, consuming two or more fruits per day, and sleeping 7+ h·d−1 and lower percentage of residents who currently smoke were also significantly associated with change in percentage of residents with good health status over time. Conclusion Our study shows room for improvement in health behaviors in all cities. The findings of our study also suggest that all health behaviors measured were associated with the general health status of residents of the most populous US cities.

“…Health behaviors are closely linked to a person's general health. This is not only postulated in theoretical models like the determinants of health-model (1), but has also been shown empirically (2). In addition to the individual level, health behaviors also have large public health implications.…”

Background: Health behaviors are of great importance for public health. Previous research shows that health behaviors are clustered and do not occur by chance. The main objective of this study was to investigate and describe the clustering of alcohol consumption, nutrition, physical activity and smoking while also considering the influence of sex, age and education.Methods: Using data from the population-based KORA S4/F4 cohort study, latent class regression analysis was undertaken to identify different clusters of health behavior patterns. The clusters were described according to demographics. Furthermore, the clusters were described regarding health-related quality of life at baseline and at a 7 year follow-up.Results: Based on a sample of 4,238 participants, three distinct classes were identified. One overall healthy class and two heterogeneous classes. Classes varied especially according to sex, indicating a healthier behavior pattern for females. No clear association between healthier classes and age, education or physical and mental health-related quality of life was found.Discussion: This study strengthens the literature on the clustering of health behaviors and additionally describes the identified clusters in association with health-related quality of life. More research on associations between clustering of health behaviors and important clinical outcomes is needed.

“…A research in Korea shows that sleeping duration of 6-9 hours can make people have high quality of life (QOL), low probability on suffering a disease, and the limit of sleeping time is <6 hours or > 9 hours. The stability of emotion, Normal weight eating habit, not smoking, avoiding alcohol, and enough resting is an important lifestyle for maintaining health status 14 . A research to male students in Nigeria shows that their daily sleeping duration is 7.42 hours/day, standing time of 1.92 hours/day, and private activity of 1.57 hours/day 15 .…”
