Cause For Diseases
For a billion-plus population in India, the medical facilities are restricted to only 10% of the population. As the poorest of the poor ‘ can’t afford to buy health services, their health gets affected and they die early. The pollution levels in all the metropolitan cities are growing to alarming levels. Lung-related diseases are caused by the toxic fumes released by two-wheelers and four-wheelers. The study reveals 19% of diseases are caused due to pollution. Of course, there are 20% of diseases genetically inherited from parents. TB and diabetes are said to be some of the inherited diseases.
Now doctors are trying to isolate the gene that causes terminal illness and correct it during pregnancy itself. Such advanced health care and preventive support may not be available for poor countries. 51% of the causes of illness are jointly shared by lifestyle, smoking, obesity, stress, diet, nutrition, and blood pressure. Lifestyle and stress are interrelated.
Hectic work schedules, lack of sleep, eating disorders contribute to stress and high level of blood pressure. Due to addiction to android games and TV shows, young ones neglect to play on open grounds. They are glued to small or big screens and keep eating chips, fries, and heavily advertised junk food. Poor people don't give nutritious food to children. Malnourishment leads to various diseases. Some children lose their eyesight due to vitamin deficiency. Politicians should focus on investing money in sports and games and health care delivery systems that give good health care to all freely.
