💡 Chronic Diseases (NCDs) Silent Threat to Watch Out For with Simple Prevents

Chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a group of diseases caused by lifestyle behavior, often without clear warning symptoms but with long-term damage to the body; if not maintained, they can lead to severe complications and high treatment costs.

1.Overweight / obesity (overweight / Obesity)

It is the beginning of many chronic diseases, because excess fat will affect the entire body's functional system.

Complications

- Heart disease, fat buildup makes the heart work harder and a blockage occurs in the tube.

- Diabetes, insulin-resistant cells make it difficult for the body to control sugar levels.

- Cancer Increases the risk of certain cancers, such as colon cancer, breast cancer.

- Liver fat disease, fat accumulation in the liver, causing hepatitis.

- Kidney disease / hypertension Abnormal blood vessel and kidney function from overweight body weight

✅ Easy to prevent:

• Diet Control: Reduce fried foods, oily, sweet, increase vegetables, fruits and protein

• Exercise regularly: 30 minutes / day, at least 3-5 days / week

• Get enough sleep: Good sleep controls hunger and satiety hormones.

2. Hypertensionism

A condition where blood pressure is above 140 / 90 mmHg, which causes blood vessels throughout the body to slowly damage.

Complications

- Heart disease. The heart needs to work hard to pump blood. It can cause heart failure.

- Stroke, TIA, ruptured or ruptured cerebral blood vessels, causing paralysis / paralysis.

- Kidney disease, damaged blood vessels, causing kidney degeneration and chronic kidney failure.

✅ Easy to prevent:

• Reducing Salty / Sodium: Limiting the amount of salt and seasoning in food

• Weight control: Weight loss directly lowers blood pressure

• Stress management: Practice meditation, or find relaxing activities to reduce stress levels

3. Dyslipidemia

A condition with higher than normal levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, which is the main cause of angiogenesis.

Complications

- Heart disease, coronary fat.

- Stroke, TIA, fat slag, blood vessels, or dislodged to clog the blood vessels in the brain.

- Nephrology, blood vessels that go to kidney embolism, degrade kidney performance.

✅ Easy to prevent:

• Choose good fat: consume unsaturated fats such as olive oil, marine fish, nuts and seeds.

• Avoid trans / high saturated fats: Reduce instant bakery, fried foods and lean meats

• Increase dietary fiber: Eat vegetables, fruits, and whole grains because they reduce fat absorption.

4.Hyperglycemia / Diabetes (Hyperglycemia, DM)

A condition in which the body has higher than normal blood sugar levels, due to abnormal insulin production or response, chronically high sugar destroys small blood vessels throughout the body.

Complications

- Cardiovascular disease, atherosclerosis is damaged, it is easier and faster to cause ischemia, leading to myocardial infarction and disease.

- Kidney disease / Diabetes down the kidney. Sugar destroys capillaries in the kidney, causing the kidney to work hard until it leads to kidney failure.

- Eye diabetes. Retinal capillary damage leads to blindness.

- Peripheral nerves are damaged, causing numbness, pain, or foot lesions easily.

✅ Easy to prevent:

• Reduce sugar and processed carbohydrates: abstain from nectar, soft drinks and limit white rice / white polished flour

• Weight Control: Even a small amount of weight loss improves insulin sensitivity

• Annual check-up: check blood glucose at least once a year. If there is a family history, check more frequently.

Summary of holistic prevention methods (applicable to all diseases):

• Emphasis on eating a balanced diet: Reduce sweet, oily, salty, and increase fruits and vegetables

• Body Movement: Exercise to Be a Part of Everyday Life

• Get Enough Sleep: Let the Body Repair Itself

• Abstain Smoking and Alcohol Restriction: Reduce Vascular-Destructive Toxins
