* Helping to formulate national reproductive health strategies that consider context- specific chronic disease challenges and ensuring that emerging chronic disease strategies are sensitive to reproductive health needs and gender inequalities.* Raising awareness among communities seeking reproductive health services regarding their specific chronic disease risks and resources available for prevention and treatment.* TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 36 TH-1 guidelines for optimal nutrition and incorporating them into reproductive health services to help reach appropriate levels of consumption for women who are both under- and overweight.* Building on existing collaborations with those in the HIV/ AIDS field to apply lessons learned regarding integration of services, or to facilitate connections with chronic disease experts working to establish longterm population health care.
* Considering how emerging technologies, including mobile and cell phone- enabled communications, can facilitate data collection, diagnosis, and management of chronic diseases.Why use the term "TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 36 TH-4 diseases"? "Chronic diseases" is often used interchangeably with such terms as "noncommunicable diseases," "lifestyle diseases" and "diseases of affluence" or "Western diseases." No term is perfect, but some may be more useful than others; for example, the diseases of affluence paradigm implies incorrectly that these conditions are not a concern for low-income populations. This article uses "chronic disease" because the term helps convey important characteristics of this subset of diseases: for example, that they often TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 360 TH-10 decades of disability.1 The World Health Organizations (WHO) major report on chronic disease provides several examples of how disability caused by chronic diseases has affected real peoples lives in developing countries.1
This article focuses on the chronic conditions of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity (for more information on the rationale for this focus, see page 1). Illnesses and risk factors like cancer, depression, tobacco use, and blindness are all often grouped under a broad definition of chronic disease, and obviously impact people living in developing countries, including their reproductive health (e.g., reproductive cancers, maternal smoking, and postpartum depression). WHOs websiteis an excellent starting point for more information on these and other topics. Approaches to chronic disease TAG Heuer Monaco Calibre 360 TH-104 and management in low- and middle-income countries Policies and programs to address chronic diseases in developing countries are relatively new, and so rigorous evaluation data are not widely available in many cases.
Epidemiology of chronic diseasesOf the 58 million deaths that occurred globally in 2005, 35 million (60%) were due to chronic diseases - twice the number of deaths due to infectious diseases, maternal and perinatal conditions, and nutritional U-Boat Flightdeck UB-13 combined.1 As the overall burden of infectious diseases decreases in developing countries - due in large part to effective public health programs implemented over the past several decades - the burden of chronic diseases is growing. It is estimated that between 1990 and 2020, mortality due to heart disease in developing countries will increase by 120% in women and 137% in men.4 Between 2007 and 2025, the number of people living with diabetes globally will increase from 246 to 380 million,
and the majority will live in developing countries.5,6 These increases are partly accounted for by increasing life expectancy and aging populations, but there are also increases in age -specific disease rates due to migration and U-Boat Flightdeck UB-14 that affect diet, working, and activity patterns.7Patterns of disease: a complex global pictureIn general, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity are more common in lowermiddle-income countries than in lowincome U-Boat Flightdeck UB-15. For example, chronic diseases account for the majority of deaths in China, Egypt, Nicaragua, Peru, Thailand, Ukraine, and Vietnam, and nearly the majority in India (Table 1, page 2). By contrast, the majority of deaths are still due to communicable diseases in many subsanaran African countries, as well as in Cambodia.
Nationally representative prevalence rates for cardiovascular disease and diabetes are not available in many countries. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) has collected comparable data on overweight and obesity (body mass index, or BMI, ≥25 kg/m^sup 2^). Rates of overweight and obesity in women are currently highest in countries of Eastern Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East and North Africa, as well as South Africa (Table I).8 Continuing high rates of underweight women in many countries of South and Southeast Asia, as well as subsanaran Africa, may mask a growing obesity problem, U-Boat Flightdeck UB-16 even in Côte d'Ivoire, Senegal, and Thailand, more than one-third of women are overweight or obese. Both underweight and obesity have implications for chronic disease: women who are underweight during pregnancy are more likely to have low-birthweight infants who then face a higher subsequent risk of cardiovascular diseases and diabetes in adulthood.9 11
Jason Krause, director of marketing for Cliffstar Corp., Dunkirk, N. Y, echoes Nicolino's observations."People are far more conscious of their health," he says. "They're taking a lot of their health TAG Heuer Ayrton Senna Link Quartz Chronograph TH-23 into their own hands and trying to live a healthier lifestyle. They're reading labels, and they're looking for benefits from these products."FOCUS ON SUPERFRUITSLook up that aisle - it's a blueberry . . . it's a pomegranate . . . it's a superfruit!Although they might not be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, fruits falling under the superfruit banner contain high levels of antioxidants, which help to prevent and repair the damage wreaked on the body by free radicals. For that reason, they've become superheros in the juice category.
Indeed, research touting the health benefits of superfruits has resulted in new opportunities to reach adult consumers.Nicolino says Clement Pappas recently launched a TAG Heuer Ayrton Senna Link Quartz Chronograph TH-62 of private label antioxidant juices in slim 8ounce cans for a couple of major retailers. They feature blends of juices from fruits naturally rich in antioxidants - in combos such as mango-acai, pomegranate-blueberry, pomegranate-cranberry and blueberry-raspberry. She suggests that retailers TAG Heuer Ayrton Senna Link Quartz Chronograph TH-64 such juices to consumers - particularly women as their "antioxidant hit of the day." Peter Mattson, executive vice president of sales and marketing for A. Lassonde, Rougemont, Québec, Canada, says the health benefits of many of today's juice offerings often outweigh calorie concerns in consumers' eyes.
"People want their product to prolong their life or help their overall health and appearance versus being concerned about calories," he says."More information [is] being supplied by health professionals and the Internet; more global health information is being shared and communicated."Speaking of calories, although a market still exists for lighter TAG Heuer Calibre 16 TH-100 diet juices on the adult side, Krause believes interest has fizzled a bit."I think what consumers really are looking for are products that are good for them, whether they be fortified or be organic, or whether they be high in antioxidants," he says. "I think people who would be really concerned about those calorie contents are now saying, 'Wow, these products are good for us, and it's a good way to get the nutrition I need.'"
