Abstract
The study aimed to examine the impact of lifestyle intervention programmes on addressing risk factors affecting healthy living in Edo State, Nigeria. The research used a descriptive survey research design, collecting data from 220 medical professionals through questionnaires. The data was analyzed using mean, standard deviation, and Pearson Product Moment Correlation (PPMC). The findings showed a mixed picture of the effectiveness of the lifestyle intervention programmes. While there was a positive correlation between the programmes and raising awareness about healthy behaviors, encouraging healthy lifestyles, and promoting collaboration among healthcare providers, there was a perception of limited effectiveness in providing support and resources for lifestyle changes and reducing the prevalence of risk factors. Based on the results, the study recommended enhancing support and resources for individuals to make positive lifestyle changes, tailoring interventions to specific risk factors and population groups, fostering effective collaboration among healthcare providers, conducting long term impact assessments, and considering population-wide strategies to address risk factors. In conclusion, the study highlighted the importance of lifestyle intervention programmes in promoting healthy behaviors and raising awareness about their significance. While there may be room for improvement in certain areas, the positive impact of these interventions on addressing risk factors for health in Edo State was evident.
