Degenerative Diseases

Degenerative diseases are a group of illnesses that cause progressive deterioration of the body's cells, tissues, or organs. They are often caused by genetic mutations, age-related changes, or environmental factors such as exposure to toxins or radiation. These diseases can lead to disability or death if left untreated. They include illnesses such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Treatment for degenerative diseases typically involves medications, lifestyle modifications, and physical or occupational therapy. Prevention is possible through lifestyle changes such as healthy eating, exercise, and addressing risk factors. Improved awareness and early diagnosis can allow for earlier interventions, increasing the chances of successful treatment and slowing the progression of the illness.
