The question now is how to act and make this change to increase healthy lifestyles. We have two approaches to help us achieve this goal. The individualistic approach explains the ability of individuals to exercise some control over their own health (Bandura, 2004). Basically, the individualistic approach asserts that each person should be held responsible for maintaining their own health. On the other hand, the societal approach seeks to help people increase their effectiveness in their own beliefs. This involves changing social, political and environmental conditions to avoid current and future health risks. This can be done in several ways. The first would be to disseminate information on how practicing healthy habits every day has a positive effect on health. The second takes a different approach and strives to provoke fear of illness. The third consists of informing individuals of their vulnerability and risk to a disease. Basically, just because you're healthy now doesn't mean you'll stay healthy without taking the necessary precautions. Some people believe that an individualistic approach is more important than a societal approach and vice versa. However, I believe that they are completely correlated and one cannot exist without the other. Societal approaches aim to educate and inspire people to make health changes, but these changes will never happen without
