Chronic diseases are non-transmissible, like Diabetes Mellitus, Cancer and Cardiovascular Diseases, and develop in result of the interaction between genetics and the exposure of environmental risk factors.

By definition, chronic diseases do not have a cure, but they can be controlled with pharmacological treatment and life style modifications.

In the last few decades it has been noticed an increase in the chronic diseases prevalence, mostly due to the exposure to risk factors, mainly to tabaco consumption, sedentarism, abuse of alcoholic drinks, unhealthy diets and air pollution. As these factors can be modified, it is important that the patients understand what they can change in their daily life to minimize the consequences of their disease.

According to World Health Organization, chronic diseases are responsible to more than 70% of all death in the world, including 15 million people that die prematurely, which means, aged between 30 and 69 years old.
