High BP, poor diet are risks to early death

Earlier the leading risk for death was child/maternal malnutrition and unsafe water/sanitation.

No more.

A 25-year long study has revealed that high BP and poor diet are now the leading risks for death.

Globally, it becomes important now that nations advise their populations to keep BP under check by regular check-ups and have a balanced diet rather than depend on junk food on a regular basis.
