Primary Prevention includes:

• A. Health Promotion
• B. Curative treatment
• C. Rehabilitation
• D. Palliative care

Answer: (A)

Primary prevention focuses on stopping diseases before they start by reducing risk factors and promoting overall health. Health promotion fits this because it aims to empower people to adopt protective behaviors and environments that prevent illness, such as regular physical activity, proper nutrition, avoiding tobacco, safe sexual practices, vaccinations, and safety measures. By addressing these factors early, you lower the likelihood that disease will develop.

Curative treatment involves actions taken after a disease is already present to cure or control it, so it does not prevent disease from occurring. Rehabilitation and palliative care occur after illness—rehabilitation helps restore function after disease or injury, and palliative care focuses on comfort in serious illness.
