Be the boss of your health! Managing chronic diseases is possible
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Alper Karakuş emphasizes that health cannot be completely controlled, but it can be largely managed with the right methods. He says, “Cardiovascular diseases and other chronic conditions, in particular, can be managed with nutrition, regular checkups, medication adherence, and the support of digital health tools. Today, we have opportunities unimaginable in the past: Thanks to wearable devices, mobile health apps, telehealth systems, and strong healthcare teams, living with chronic diseases is becoming much safer, more sustainable, and of higher quality. However, this manageability depends on an individual's access to technology, their ability to use it, and psychological support mechanisms.”
