lifestyle factors
Daily habit influences
Lifestyle factors are habits and behaviors that affect health and well-being—diet, exercise, sleep, alcohol consumption, smoking, stress management.
Medical contexts distinguish these from genetic or environmental factors: The doctor asked about lifestyle factors that might contribute to his condition.
The term implies these are within individual control, though critics note that social and economic circumstances shape choices.
