Abstract

This review investigates social determinants of national health particularly looking at non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and argues that structural interventions in the economy and society are necessary to reduce the prevalence of NCDs [1]. Sociologists study health demographics because patterns of health change across classes, cultures, genders and countries. Disease does not have solely biological causes, but it is also identified by factors such as the socio-cultural environment, economic status, living and working conditions and government legislation. It is a medical condition or chronic diseases which not passed from person to person so that’s why it is called non-infectious and non transferable [2].
