Abstract

Healthy modulation of lifestyles in many cases has a better therapeutic effect than that obtained by many first-line drugs. These results and the recent slowdown in the development of new drugs have shifted more attention to the preventive and therapeutic role of healthy lifestyles in several chronic diseases. Their role in hematological disorders is also attracting increasing attention. A lifestyle of non-smoking, abstinence or low to moderate alcohol intake, regular physical activity, consumption of a prudent diet, and avoiding weight gain induce a plethora of beneficial effects on the hematological system. Unhealthy lifestyles on the other hand, lead to a host of harmful effects, including anemia, diminished immunity, and clotting abnormalities. Unhealthy lifestyles also play a significant role in the pathogenesis of a wide array of hematological malignancies. The aim of this manuscript is to review this association.
