Cancer is a disease that nobody would ever want to experience, whether personally or through a family member contracting the disease. If you do have at least one member of your immediate family who has cancer or has died from it, this means that you are already at greater risk of developing cancer than other people!

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common condition related to brain degeneration. Although the disease most frequently affects the elderly, it can also occur in those of working age. Medical studies into the prevention and treatment of the disease have found that when diagnosed and treated early enough, Alzheimer’s symptoms can be eased and the disease’s development slowed. In some cases, treatment may even allow a return to normality for the sufferer.
Statistics show that:
Alzheimer’s disease tends to affect memory function, thinking capabilities and various behaviors. The disease’s symptoms gradually increase over time, with sufferers slowly losing all memory of their past, forgetting how to carry out every day tasks and, most distressingly, losing the ability to remember the names and faces of family members. The causes of Alzheimer’s are numerous and include genetic mutations, exposure to heavy metals, chronic stress, high blood fat levels, depression and lack of physical activity.
Currently, techniques are available to prevent the disease through the use of genetic assessments and the most up-to-date devices that enable early diagnosis of the condition.

Brain hemorrhages or strokes can be caused by a number of factors, including the process of aging, chronic congenital diseases such as diabetes, stress, atherosclerosis, heart disease , high blood pressure and high blood fat levels, as well as an unhealthy diet and a lack of exercise.
If someone is experiencing symptoms of a stroke, the person has just 270 minutes before the brain tissue begins to die. Statistics have found that two out of three stroke patients will be left with permanent disabilities if not brought to hospital for treatment within this time frame.
4 signs of a stroke (F.A.S.T.) that you should be aware of
There are currently several techniques available that can help prevent strokes. These include undergoing targeted health checks for people who are categorized as being at high risk.

Heart disease is currently the second biggest cause of death worldwide after cancer. Heart disease comes in many forms, but the most common types are coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia and sudden cardiac arrest. The factors which cause heart disease fall into two categories, with factors under our control and factors which are not under our control.
Factors not under our control:
Factors under our control which may even prevent heart disease:
Your heart function can be analyzed when you attend your annual health checkup. Alternatively, targeted analysis of the heart function may be carried out by specialist doctors using the latest equipment.

Fatty liver disease is caused by a buildup of fat in the liver cells. This eventually leads to liver tissue degeneration, which can potentially cause hepatitis or the formation of a membrane. If left untreated for an extended period of time, liver tissue may die, causing liver cirrhosis and eventually liver cancer.
There are two types of fatty liver disease, namely alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
With regard to alcoholic fatty liver disease, if a person drinks more than two units of alcohol per day, it will speed up degeneration of the liver (1 unit of alcohol = 1 shot of liquor, 1 glass of wine or 1 bottle of beer).
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, on the other hand, tends to affect obese patients of any age, from children to the elderly. It can also affect diabetics, those with insulin resistance, people with high blood fat levels and those genetically predisposed to the condition. Some forms of medication or over consumption of sweet foods can also increase the risk of developing fatty liver disease.

Snoring can be categorized into the following two types:
The more someone suffers from sleep apnea throughout the night, the greater the chances they have of feeling sleepy or exhausted throughout the next day.
In addition to this, other health problems can arise as a result of continuous bouts of sleep apnea, including high blood pressure, arrhythmia, ischemic heart disease that is capable of causing an acute myocardial infarction, and stroke.
(Written by Kaseansom Viranuvatti, M.D.)
You can find out whether you are suffering from sleep apnea with a sleepiness test
