NCDs are non-transmissible illnesses that typically develop slowly and become chronic or last for long periods up to a lifetime. Therefore, these conditions require long-term treatment or medication which in turn cause an economic burden on low- to middle- income households. NCDs include cancer, heart disease, stroke, chronic respiratory illnesses, diabetes, mental and neurological disorders, and chronic kidney disease, are usually caused by a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors such as unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, tobacco and vape use, alcohol consumption, and air pollution. However, 80% of NCDs are preventable by modifying these risk factors.
