Different Types Of Lifestyle Diseases

“Lifestyle Diseases”!! Have our ancestors ever thought of such a disease? No…Never. It is our wrong choices that contributed to the development of such preventable chronic diseases. Even when trying to put the blame on external factors such as modernization, urbanization and many more, deep inside our mind we know that it’s all result of the choice that we made in our life. If you try to dig the cornerstone for all these diseases, you will end up the journey inside you.

 

Types of lifestyle diseases:

Everything at your fingertip, the phrase that we here every day. Rapid strides in technology made our life easy, comfy and expedient. But nobody realized the menace that is hiding behind it. According to the WHO estimates about 63% of the mortality worldwide are due to lifestyle diseases. Some of the lifestyle diseases that must be tackled for a healthy “generation next” are listed below:

 

Heart Diseases

The risk of heart disease co-morbid with diabetes and hypertension. Our indulgence in junk food and lack of physical activity is one of the major factors that contribute to heart diseases. Obesity taking the lead role in heart failure is a collaborative result of many other factors.

 

Type 2 Diabetes

Diabetes- the aftermath of a sweet revenge. Eating too many sweets may result in high blood sugar leading to further complications like loss of eyesight, kidney failure, poor wound healing etc. Lack of exercise and obesity are other factors that cause diabetes.

 

Hypertension:

High blood pressure is one of the most common lifestyle diseases which is not taken seriously by many. But we are forgetting the fact that it can become the underlying cause for many other serious diseases. Poor eating habits including fried and fatty food products, aerated drinks, lack of exercise etc. are the prime factors.

 

Cancer:

When it comes to cancer the list is never-ending. Breast Cancer, Cervical Cancer, Lung Cancer, Oral Cancer and many more. At least one member in every family is suffering from cancer now a day. From junk food, pesticides in fruits and vegetables, processed meat to smoking, alcoholism, drugs- factors are many.

 

Liver Cirrhosis:

Liver Cirrhosis develops when the scar tissue in your liver replaces your healthy tissue, making it lumpy and hard and eventually fail. Alcohol consumption being the major factor that causes liver cirrhosis, fatty liver due to obesity, high cholesterol, high blood pressure are other leading factors.

 

Polycystic ovary syndrome:

It is a condition in which the level of male hormones increase than normal preventing the ovaries from making egg normally in women. This hormonal imbalance result in irregular periods, increased number of cysts in the ovaries, infertility, bleeding, weight gain, hair loss, acne, and other skin problems. Irregular sleeping and eating pattern cause imbalance in the level of melatonin and serotonin which further affect the insulin level in your body. This contributes to long-term health problems like diabetes and heart disease.

 

Asthma:

Asthma is a chronic lung disease that inflames and narrows the airway causing wheezing, chest congestion and shortness of breath. Air pollution being the major cause of asthma, it can be grouped under lifestyle diseases. Sitting under the shade of a tree and breathing in the fresh air is long gone. We now live in AC apartments with air purifiers.

 

Depression:

In our race to make money, the stress and tension that we are going through are getting unnoticed. The competition in every field from our school days to office desk is carving away our health. Not able to reach at par with the busy schedule is the leading cause of frustration and depression.

 

Better Late Than Never:

Despite the understanding of a healthy lifestyle, we are not preparing ourselves to do the needful. Many patients are inadequately prepared to either start or maintain a healthy lifestyle. It is equally important to monitor our health frequently and act wisely.
