According to a study conducted by the World Health Organization, noncommunicable diseases, such as heart disease, cancer, diabetes, chronic lung disease, and stroke, are the main leading causes of deaths—almost 90% worldwide. These diseases also have social and economic costs. Cardiovascular diseases, for example, cost the economy of the European Union about 210 billion Euro in 2015.
