Abstract

The term ‘commercial determinants of health’ (CDOH) is increasingly focussing attention upon the role of tobacco, alcohol, and food and beverage companies, and others—as important drivers of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs). The CDOH does not seem to be clearly represented in the most common social determinants of health (SDOH) frameworks. This idea led the authors to review with the help of document analysis a wide range of existing frameworks of the determinants of health to determine whether and how commercial determinants are incorporated into current SDOH thinking.
