Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs)
Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs) are chronic diseases that tend to be of long duration and are the result of a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental and behavioral factors.
Four types of non-communicable diseases account for 80% of all premature deaths:
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Cancers
- Diabetes
- Chronic respiratory diseases
People of all age groups, regions and countries are affected by NCDs. These conditions are often associated with older age groups, but evidence shows that 17 million NCD deaths occur before the age of 70 years.
Risk factors:
- Modifiable behavioural risk factors – tobacco use, physical inactivity, unhealthy diet, harmful use of alcohol all
- Metabolic risk factors – raised blood pressure and overweight/obesity
Cardiovascular Diseases
Cardiovascular disease includes all the diseases of the heart and circulation including coronary heart disease, heart failure, congenital heart disease and stroke. Coronary heart disease and stroke may be caused by the atherosclerosis. This is due to narrowing of arteries by a gradual build fatty material called atheroma within their walls. If a piece of atheroma in arteries breaks away, it may cause a blood clot. If the blood clot blocks coronary artery and cut off the supply of oxygen rich blood to heart may cause permanently damage of heart muscles. This is known as a heart attack.
Three main aspect of physical deterioration in the cardiovascular vessels walls structure:
- Clogging of vessels with cholesterol and plaque
- Loss of vessel wall thickness
- Damaged areas due to increased pressure and free radical activity
Risk factors include:
- Smoking
- Stress
- Alcohol
- Overweight and inactivity
- High cholesterol
- High blood pressure
- Sugar intolerance and diabetes
- Physical inactivity
- Family history of heart disease
- Too much saturated and trans fats in the diet
- Sex – men are more likely to get CVD earlier than women
- Age – older age
According to Ayurveda, the heart is one vital organ which has the spirit of all body tissues and helps in maintaining and promoting a healthy life. The body is governed by three doshas named as vata, pitta and kapha. The human heart is also managed by three sub-doshas known as vyana vata (blood flow and beat), sadhaka pitta (emotional balance), avalambaka kapha (Sense of security).
In Ayurveda, the coronary heart disease results from a kapha dosha due to excess consumption of fatty foods, insufficient intake of fruits and vegetables and sedentary lifestyle.
Common symptoms of Cardiovascular Heart Disease:
- Chest pain
- Breathlessness
- Pain, weakness or numbness of legs and/or arms
- Very fast or slow heartbeat or palpitation
- Feeling dizzy, lightheaded or faint
- Fatigue
- Swollen limbs
Ayurveda aims to striking at the very root of the disease, by addressing the disease holistically. Proper Ayurveda treatments have great ability to manage the cardiovascular diseases. Those treatment modalities include internal herbal medicines, panchakarma treatments and external therapies with food and lifestyle management.
Diabetes
Diabetes is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how body turns food into energy. The body breaks down most of the food you eat into sugar (glucose) and releases it into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals your pancreas to release insulin.
Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar into your body’s cells for use as energy. With diabetes, your body doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t use it as well as it should. When there isn’t enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, such as heart disease, kidney disease and vision loss.
Types of Diabetes:
- Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is thought to be caused by an autoimmune reaction. This reaction stops body from making insulin. Approximately 5-10% of the diabetes people have type 1 diabetes. It’s usually diagnosed in children, teens, and young adults.
- Type 2 Diabetes
With type 2 diabetes, your body doesn’t use insulin well and can’t keep blood sugar at normal levels. About 90-95% of people with diabetes have type 2. It develops over many years and is usually diagnosed in adults. This is caused by several factors:
- Eating unhealthy diet
- Overweight or obese
- Genetically
Symptoms of Diabetes:
- Increased thirst and urination
- Increased hunger
- Fatigue
- Blurred vision
- Numbness or tingling in the feet or hands
- Sores that do not heal
- Unexplained weight
In Ayurveda, imbalance in vata and kapha are considered as root cause of diabetes, in which diminished functioning of agni leads to a tendency toward high blood sugar. Ayurveda includes diabetes mellitus in the Prameha category. Pramehas are a list of urinary disorders, especially characterized by profuse urination with several abnormal qualities. There are twenty kinds of pramehas in Ayurveda. According to the involving dosha, diabetes mellitus is termed as Madhumeha. It is one of the four vataja pramehas.
The Ayurvedic treatment for diabetes mellitus is based on internal herbal medication with entire lifestyle management of the patient. The patient is advised to lead a healthy dietary and lifestyle pattern.
Chronic Respiratory Diseases
Chronic respiratory diseases (CRD) is a term to describe diseases that affect the lungs and airways. The air that enters the body through the respiratory system enables crucial and life-sustaining activities.
Respiratory disorders in Ayurveda have been described as problems arising out of an imbalance in kapha and vata doshas. The lungs, respiratory system and heart are govern by the avlambaka kapha as a sub-type of kapha dosha. This controls the flow of udana vata and prana vayu. An imbalance in these doshas lead to respiratory problems such as Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Bronchitis, Pneumonia, as well as seasonal allergies.
Ayurveda treatments are very effective in the management of Chronic Respiratory Diseases. Special formulated herbal drugs are used to control infection or disease, respiratory functions, detoxification and metabolism. Nasya plays an important role as a panchakarma treatment in the management of chronic respiratory diseases. The lifestyle and diet management helps to boost metabolism and prevention of disease.
