Worldwide accomplishing these goals implies complete renovation of basic principles of preventive medicine, as well as those related with chronic conditions and individual lifestyle modification. Furthermore, it becomes essential to incorporate current knowledge in this plan of action for a better applied and more human restoration of health.
