An increase of lifestyle diseases (LSDs) has been driven by predominantly four important risk factors viz. unhealthy diet, hazardous alcohol use, tobacco use and physical inactivity. The present paper is envisioned to emphasize personal viewpoints and elucidations about vital role of behavioral risk factors in the management of lifestyle diseases particularly regarding Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes (T2DM) and Hypertension as well as an associated risk of pharmacological measures in treating such illnesses. Type 2 Diabetes is considered as irreversible and incurable chronic disease based on traditional means of management. Though, the current research promotes complete reversal of diabetes with the help of simple lifestyle measures. Health care professionals are encouraged to converse with their patients regarding health benefits of exercise, healthy diet and other lifestyle measures. Patient centered behaviour involving reducing tobacco use, controlling alcohol consumption, improving sleep patterns, balanced diet and mental wellbeing should be targeted by health care professional. Early diagnosis, prompt initiation of healthy lifestyle measures and delayed drug treatment could be an effective strategy not only to combat LSDs but also to develop positive attitudes towards life.

Purpose – the purpose of this article is to present the novel model developed to measure social marketing impact on consumers choice for healthy lifestyle. Social marketing is very complex by aiming to promote socially responsible products and behavior for the benefit of the consumer and society at the same time. What is more, con- sumers choice for healthy lifestyle is determined not only by marketing influence but other personality and external environment factors as well. Research methodology – the model presented in the article was developed based on literature analysis and secondary data. Findings – social marketing impact on consumers choice for healthy lifestyle is determined not only by the social mar- keting, but also the consumer personality itself and the influence of the external environment on consumer. Research limitations – validation of the novel developed model dedicated for the measurement of social marketing impact on consumers choice for healthy lifestyle should be further validated with quantitative research methods. Practical implications – the application of the model will enable marketing specialists to determine the contents and other situational details of social marketing for consumers to choose healthy lifestyle and products related to it. Originality/Value – the value of the model is determined by its novel attitude to social marketing in parallel with other factors affecting consumer behaviour.
