New Age Disease
Have you heard of the term, 'New Age Diseases?'
These are medical conditions largely blamed on modern day lifestyles. They may result in complications such as strokes, heart attacks and kidney failure. It is these complications that affect our health, and cause deaths and disability. Many will not cause symptoms in the early stages, as we will later find, and therefore this is where vigilance for early detection is required.
For most, once complications set in, a cycle of further damage to your organs such as your kidneys continues. If you can cure or control the particular problem early, before the complications set in, then you can lead a fairly normal life.
Here is a list of the major medical conditions:
Obesity
Diabetes
Hypertension
Stress and Depression
Cancers and infections diseases such as HIV are in a special category, because causes are very complex in each individual.
In the next few weeks, we will discuss simple day to day measures, and in simple language to prevent or control these conditions.
NB You should always consult your doctor or other healthcare providers regarding your specific condition.
