Features: Former Director-General of the World Health Organization, Dr. Hiroyuki Nakashima, pointed out that around 2015, the causes of death in developed and developing countries would largely be the same—lifestyle diseases would become the world's leading killer. The World Health Organization states that approximately 94% or more of the global population is in a sub-healthy state, most or the majority of whom suffer from (rich diseases) or show initial symptoms or tendencies of it. As people's living standards improve, (rich diseases), also known as lifestyle diseases, have emerged. Unscientific lifestyles are the main cause of this condition. A fast-paced life, reduced physical activity, increased stress, high-calorie diets, excessive fat intake, alcohol consumption, and smoking have led to the occurrence of many lifestyle diseases. According to the Third National Dietary and Nutrition Survey:
· Approximately 2 million people die from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in China each year, ranking as the leading cause of death among residents.
· By the 21st century, over 100 million people in China had hypertension, affecting tens of millions of families.
· The number of overweight and obese individuals in China had reached 70 million.
· There were over 96 million people with high blood lipids.
· Beijing had 2 million hypertensive patients, with 30,000 closely related to hypertension-related stroke patients.
According to the World Health Organization's prediction, by 2020, chronic diseases will account for 79% of total deaths in China, with cardiovascular diseases ranking as the leading cause, becoming the leading killer of humanity!
