Lifestyle REDO addresses the Modifiable Risk Factors for Non-Communicable Diseases
Unhealthy diets, physical inactivity, tobacco and alcohol use all increase the risk of NCD.
NCDs perish 41 million people each year, equivalent to 74% of all deaths globally.
17 million people prematurely die from NCD before age 70; 86% of these deaths occur in low-and middle-income countries.
Behavioural Factors
Modifiable behaviours such as unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, tobacco and alcohol use increase the risk of NCDs.
Metabolic Factors
Increased blood pressure, overweight/obesity, and high levels of fat in the blood are metabolic risk factors that increase the risk of NCDs.
Socio-economic Factors
Poverty is closely linked with NCDs. Low-resource settings, health-care costs for NCDs quickly drain household resources and lifestyle programs are proven solutions.
