Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on chronic disease management from a life-span perspective. Optimal health care service is needed to promote health, reduce mortality, slow chronic disease progression, reduce complications, and lessen the global healthcare burden. To achieve these goals in disease management and health promotion, the provision of effective health care services is critical. Historically, weight loss and dietary changes have been primary interventions used to decrease visceral adiposity, improve glycaemic control, and reduce blood pressure and lipid levels. Nutritional management is crucial where lifestyle modifications are used to achieve optimal control in blood pressure and glucose and lipid levels. The regular testing of the eyes, feet, blood pressure, lipids, and urinary albumin excretion is also recommended to screen for possible complications. Efficient and effective nutrition should also focus on service provisions relating to the accessibility and affordability of healthy food and the promotion of healthy and nutritious food together with physical activity, blood glucose monitoring, vaccination, medication use, sufficient disease knowledge, positive behaviour changes, and self-efficacy
