While not all studies have reported protective effects [25], [26], meta-analysis has demonstrated a reduced risk of breast cancer among women who breastfed their infants [12]; therefore, any harmful effect of insufficient milk supply observed could also be explained as a protective effect of prolonged breastfeeding in the reference group consisting of women with a sufficient milk supply.
Co-occurrence of common NCD risk factors – tobacco use, harmful use of alcohol, insufficient physical activity, and unhealthy diet – contribute substantially to NCD prevalence.

2 The WHO estimates that 80% of all deaths may be attributed to NCDs by 2020. 4 Tobacco use, harmful use of alcohol, insufficient PA and unhealthy diet are the four main behavioural risk factors which induce NCDs and are expected to rise in developing countries.

The questions, however, are whether expertise has limits and whether excessive dependence on expertise to solve problems and manage human affairs might be at times insufficient and even harmful.
These are unhealthy diet, insufficient physical activity, harmful use of alcohol, and tobacco smoking (6).
The weighted prevalences of unhealthy diet, insufficient physical activity, harmful use of alcohol, and tobacco use were found to be 57.2, 14.4, 10.1, and 12.4%, respectively.
Among those who had a single NCD risk factor, the prevalence of unhealthy diet, insufficient physical activity, harmful use of alcohol, and tobacco use were found to be 78.5, 11.5, 3.7, and 6.2%, respectively.
Using the existing data, this study aims to determine the prevalence of co-occurrence of the four common NCD risk factors (unhealthy diet, insufficient physical activity, harmful use of alcohol, and tobacco use) among urban slum dwellers in Nairobi, Kenya.
