The human body: Between 10 to 30 thousand deseases possible. Cheers.

[swissie]

Depending on statistics (medical findings), between 10 to 30 thousand different deseases can befall a human body. It's a miracle that we have survived as a species. Wear and tear is a factor, but mostly Bacteria and Viruses prefer to "attack" us.

 

So, every day we wake up healthy, we should be thankful that none of those thousands of "attackers" have selected you/me as a target.

It must give food for thaught, that the "crown of evolution" is still mainly threathened by microscopip "villans", that have staunchly refused to turn into something "higher", not parttaking on evolution, perfectly satisfied with attacking "the crown of the evolution" relentlessly and successfully, by refusing to turn into a worm or a mouse eventually.

 

Never mind the pistol toting humans, we are likely to be killed by microscopic little villans.

There isn't a single "main disease" as the leading causes of death vary globally and can change over time. However, cardiovascular diseases and cancer are consistently among the top causes of death worldwide.Additionally, infectious diseases, particularly COVID-19, have significantly impacted global mortality recently.

 

 

On a direct question about lifestyle diseases being the biggest killer

 

Yes, lifestyle diseases, also known as chronic or non-communicable diseases (NCDs), are a major global health concern and a significant cause of death and disability. They are caused by a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental, and behavioral factors, and include diseases like cardiovascular diseases (heart attacks, stroke), cancer, chronic respiratory diseases (COPD), and diabetes
