According to WHO, the four primary types of chronic diseases are - cardiovascular disease, cancer, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes. Chronic diseases are the reason for over 60% of global deaths annually. 6 in 10 individuals in the US suffer from a chronic illness and 4 in 10 suffer from two or more. Chronic diseases claim a hefty amount from the nation’s $3.8 trillion annual healthcare expenditure. www.healthwealthsafe.com
