The WHO recently reported that non-communicable diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and cancer were responsible for 74% of global deaths last year.

Do you think we are paying enough attention to these lifestyle diseases, or are we too distracted by other daily survival challenges to prioritize our long-term health?
