Effective prevention strategies for post-COVID complications are crucial for patients, clinicians, and policy makers to mitigate their cumulative burden. This study evaluated the association of modifiable lifestyle factors (smoking, alcohol intake, BMI, physical activity, sedentary time, sleep duration, and dietary habits) with COVID-19 multisystem sequelae, death, and hospitalization in the UK Biobank cohort (n = 68,896). A favorable lifestyle (6-10 healthy factors; 46.4%) was associated with a 36% lower risk of multisystem sequelae (HR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.58-0.69; ARR at 210 days, 7.08%; 95% CI, 5.98-8.09) compared to an unfavorable lifestyle (0-4 factors; 12.3%). Risk reductions spanned all 10 organ systems, including cardiovascular, coagulation, metabolic, gastrointestinal, kidney, mental health, musculoskeletal, respiratory disorders, and fatigue. This beneficial effect was largely attributable to direct lifestyle impacts independent of corresponding pre-infection comorbidities (71% for any sequelae). A favorable lifestyle was also related to the risk of post-COVID death (HR 0.59, 0.52-0.66) and hospitalization (HR 0.78, 0.73-0.84). These associations persisted across acute and post-acute infection phases, irrespective of hospitalization status, vaccination, or SARS-CoV-2 variant. These findings underscore the clinical and public health importance of adhering to a healthy lifestyle in mitigating long-term COVID-19 adverse impacts and enhancing future pandemic preparedness. COVID-19 cases and deaths have decreased globally, yet the long-term health consequences of SARS-CoV-2 infection, termed as post-COVID-19 conditions or long COVID, are still being managed as a global public health crisis 1,2 . These conditions or symptoms can involve pulmonary and multiple extrapulmonary organ systems, and may occur or extend beyond the acute infection of varying severity, with significant impact on daily functioning and quality of life 3 . Increased risk and burden of cardiovascular, pulmonary, neuropsychiatric, and metabolic disorders were reported during the 6 to 12 months following SARS-CoV-2 infection 4,5 , with persistent risk observed for several diseases up to 2 years 6,7 .
