India is experiencing a rapid health transition with a rising burden of
Non Communicable Diseases (NCDs). Common NCDs such as cardio vascular diseases
(CVDs), diabetes, cancer and respiratory diseases account for major portion of
mortality and morbidity due to NCDs. It is estimated that NCDs account for 60%
of total deaths in India. The good thing however is that all these diseases are
preventable through making a choice for healthy lifestyle.
There are common preventable behavioural risk factors of NCDs such as
tobacco & alcohol use, physically inactive lifestyle, a diet high in sugar,
trans-fats and salt inter-alia. Unhealthy lifestyle increases the risk of high
blood pressure (hypertension) and increased blood glucose level. It is
recommended that a healthy lifestyle can prevent onset of the above mentioned
diseases.
NCDs are chronic in nature and may require long term treatment or
management. For effective management of these diseases, early diagnosis becomes
an essential component therefore management of preventable risk factors and
frequent screening for early diagnosis of these diseases are key strategies for
effective prevention and management of common NCDs.
