A non-communicable disease (NCD) is a disease that is not infectious and cannot be transmitted from one person to another. Examples of non-communicable diseases include:
1. **Diabetes** - A metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels over a prolonged period.
2. **Cardiovascular diseases** - Such as heart disease and stroke, often related to lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and smoking.
3. **Cancer** - A group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell growth and spread to other parts of the body.
4. **Chronic respiratory diseases** - Such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma.
5. **Obesity** - A condition resulting from an imbalance between calorie intake and energy expenditure, leading to excess body fat.
6. **Mental health disorders** - Such as depression, anxiety, and schizophrenia.
These diseases are typically influenced by factors such as genetics, lifestyle, environmental exposures, and aging, rather than being caused by infectious agents like bacteria or viruses.
