Background: Stroke is the second most common cause of mortality and major cause of morbidity globally. Understanding the risk factors associated with it can help the physician understanding the pattern and deciding the intervention to decrease the associated morbidity and mortality. Aims and objectives: To study the association of smoking,hypertension, diabetes status and diet pattern of stroke patients.
Materials and methods: Ninety subject were studied in the Department of General Medicine at Sri Aurobindo Medical College and PGI, Indore (M.

Patients smoking and drinking habit, co-orbit condition such as hypertension and diabetes status and type of diet was recorded of all the patients.
Results: Mean age of stroke patients was 36.80±7.90 years with male preponderance (62.2%). Habit of smoking/tobacco and presence of diabetes wasn’t the significant factor associated with stroke (p>0.05) however, being a hypertensive and diet was found to be the risk factors for stroke development.
Conclusion: Smoking and presence of diabetes do not contribute in stroke development however type of diet and presence of hypertension plays a significant role in stroke development.
