Dear Colleagues,

 

The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) just released final recommendations and an evidence summary on behavioral counseling interventions to promote a healthy diet and physical activity for cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention in adults with CVD risk factors. A clinician summary is also available on the Task Force website, which provides guidance to primary care clinicians for using the recommendation in practice.
