According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the four main non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are diabetes, malignancy, chronic respiratory disease, and cardiovascular disease.

The description of the results of the activity shows that several factors trigger NCDs, including most of them the elderly, a family history of hypertension, abdominal circumference in women is more than 80 cm and in men 90 cm, BMI is mostly overweight and obese, systolic pressure is more than of 140 mmHg, visceral fat of more than 10, the random blood sugar of more than 180 mg/dl, uric acid of more than 6 in women and more than 7 in men and other good health management practices such as regular health checks and uses MSG which is often in every day.
