Abstract
Non-communicable disease (NCDs) refers to those conditions which are chronic, evolve slowly, and progress relentlessly. WHO defines NCDs as diseases of long duration, and with generally slow in progression. The burden of non-communicable diseases continues to increase in the low- and middle income countries despite the widely available evidence for effective interventions. Chronic diseases-mainly cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases, and diabetes-were contribute to around 38 million (68%) of all the deaths globally and to about 5.87 million (60%) of all deaths in India; more than 80% of these deaths occurred in low-income and middle-income countries. NCDs have negative impact on individuals, and family economic production and wellbeing. Modification of Asbab-e-Sitta Zarooriya and lifestyle is pragmatic approach for the control of non-communicable disease.
