The contributions of health in economic progress contribute to the improvement of people’s living conditions and is a determinant in sustained growth to provide advances and improvements in living standards. The objective of the research is to demonstrate how economic capital truly intervenes in the social behavior and living conditions of people, especially in those areas where the population is more vulnerable. A descriptive observational study was conducted from January to July 2023 in the parish of Quisapincha (rural sector), province of Tungurahua, Ecuador. The population consisted of 11,581 people and the sample consisted of 116 people chosen by non-probabilistic convenience sampling. A structured questionnaire was applied personally to collect the data. The results denoted that the economic capital and environment of a country represent a future prognosis in the economic coverage to ensure education, health, food, personal privileges that improve the lifestyles of individuals and their families. The results of this research can be useful to evidence the project of local public policies that collaborate to the prevention of diseases as a determining factor in the economic progress and living conditions of individuals in Ecuador
