Abstract: Body discomfort is consider as state of disease. Academically disease cycle for communicable disease is available taught. None could give answer to questions “what is the disease cycle for non-communicable diseases (NCDs)? What is the interlinking framework for NCDs and lifestyle medicines (LSMs) to prevent NCDs through practicing LSMs? The aim of this review work was to develop NCD cycle and discover the interlinking framework among NCD cycle and LSMs. This is a qualitative study. Documents from public domain were analyzed to develop disease cycle and preventive framework. The interlinked framework developed through target based application of lifestyle medicine on cycle, practice of which not only prevent onset of NCDs but also can delay complication development. Documents from distinguished organizations like; world health organization (WHO), World Bank, Lifestyle Medicine Europe, country initiatives (UAE Thailand, Senegal, Oman, Bhutan, Srilanka, Mongolia, Cuba Venezuela), text books on community medicine, public health and articles were meticulously reviewed for about more than a year. The six stages for NCD cycle set as; exposure to risk factors, prodromal period, diagnosis period, reinstate of health ( using medical care to produce healthy days), restore of health (increase health stock by practicing LSMs) and reduction of complication (depreciation). All of these were elaborately described in this paper. The interlinked comprehensive preventive framework is also discussed. This will add a value to develop educational material at behavioral science and preventive medicine to know and understand the NCDs cycle and role of lifestyle medicine to control NCDs. This will also assist to program developers and policy makers to develop health promotional materials in public health practice to enhance awareness among population.
