Human Diseases have existed since the existence of man. The diseases have affected the human body in many ways. The diseases are not always bad for a human being as they keep the immune system active and enhance the capability of fighting against the external factors like Virus, bacteria and parasites. A disease is commonly defined as an abnormal condition that causes pain and hinders the regular functioning of the body. Human disease can broadly be classified into two major categories; Physical Diseases and Mental Diseases. Physical Disease or disorder is easy to detect and treat as it becomes visible and has some symptoms. Although, the mental diseases also have symptoms but it is always difficult to treat the mental disorders as they require highest level of skill and patience to treat them. Treating a disorder that has affected the brain of a patient is never easy and the changing life styles have resulted in increase in the number of people suffering from mental disorders by a huge margin.

The medical science has found cure for most of the diseases except Aids, Swine Flu and Cancer. Even Cancer can be cured if it is detected in the early stages. AIDS has emerged as a modern age evil and has killed thousands of people so far. The medical science is now taking help of the natural products and herbal medicines to cure the incurable diseases.

However, the best way to keep the diseases away from the body is to live a healthy life that includes nutritious food and regular exercising. Meditating, including protein rich food items in our daily diet will strengthen the immune system of the body and enable it to fight against any kind of diseases. Stress management techniques like YOGA must be practiced to avoid any mental stress and mental diseases.
