Chronic Disease Interventions Work And Are Cost Effective

 

Coronary heart disease incidence can be reduced by 7-8% if 2% of energy from trans fats is replaced with polyunsaturated fat, according to analyses from the Disease Control Priorities Project. This can be achieved at less than $0.50 per head, says the FDA, if such changes are facilitated through voluntary action by the food industry or by legislation, as was the case in New York where trans fats in restaurants were barred. "With this cost and the conservative estimate of an 8% reduction in coronary heart disease, the intervention is highly cost effective at $25 - 75 per DALY averted across the developing world. Assuming the greater reduction of 40% in coronary heart disease, the intervention is cost saving," say the writers.
