According to the World Health Organization, 40% of Cancers and 80% of cases of premature heart diseases, stroke and type 2 diabetes are preventable. It is well documented that over 70% of deaths are caused by chronic diseases, injuries and congenital diseases, driven by the many risk factors that are largely preventable as the primary drivers for the chronic diseases burden are lifestyle factors such as change in dietary patterns due to increased fast-food consumption coupled with sedentary lifestyle. Further, Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH), estimated that the economic burden due to NCDs are about $6.2 trillion for
India from 2012-2030, which is nine times higher than the total health expenditure for the past 19 years, while by 2020 the cost would be 126 trillion by 2030. AFND will sensitize about importance of prevention and management of NCDs (diabetes, cancer, stroke, mental health disorders, heart and chronic respiratory diseases). .
