Diseases affect our health in numerous ways. Cardiovascular diseases that include heart attacks and strokes can be prevented through healthy lifestyles. Management of diabetes includes dieting, exercising, and medication. Respiratory diseases, which include asthma and COPD, require that some forms of pollutants are avoided while one is forced to make regular check-ups. Knowledge and preventive actions are the only means through which infectious diseases, cancer, and other disorders can be managed. Mental health disorders may be controlled by therapy, medication, and counselling.
