lifestyle diseases

Lifestyle diseases are illnesses caused primarily by daily habits and choices, such as unhealthy eating, lack of exercise, smoking, and excessive alcohol consumption. These conditions include heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and certain cancers. They develop over time due to prolonged unhealthy behaviors and often result from a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. While they are largely preventable, managing them requires adopting healthier habits, regular medical check-ups, and awareness of risk factors. Reducing these diseases involves making informed lifestyle choices to improve overall health and well-being.
