I feel like hypertension is a big issue too, but I can't recall if it's the most preventable. I need to think about the statistics we reviewed.

Smoking is the obvious choice here. It's a behavior that people can change, unlike things like high cholesterol or hypertension which often require medication. As long as people quit smoking, it's the most preventable risk factor on the list.
