Prevalence data and 95% confidence intervals are age- and sex-standardized to the world’s population.

Abbreviations: CVD, cardiovascular disease; F&V, fruit and vegetable; BMI, body mass index; WHtR, waist-to-height ratio; HDL, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol.

Definitions:

  • Diabetes (self-report or fasting blood glucose≥126 mg/dl or glycated hemoglobin≥6.5%);

  • Hypertension (self-report or measured blood pressure≥140/90 mmHg);

  • Hypercholesterolemia (self-report or total cholesterol≥200 mg/dl or low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ≥130 mg/dl);

  • Low HDL (<40 mg/dl [males] and <50 mg/dl [females]);

  • Hypertriglyceridemia (≥150 mg/dl).
