scientists begin using genetic engineering to prevent Crohn's Disease and many other genetic diseases. Crohn’s disease, a genetic disease is an ongoing genetic disease. Now, with advanced technology, research scientists are using genetic engineering to eliminate this disease. There are many forms of genetic engineering, in which I will explain. Because scientists are beginning to use genetic engineering and In Vitro Fertilization, Crohn’s Disease is less common. During In Vitro Fertilization,“The embryos
Autoimmune disease affects over fifty million Americans. Autoimmune disease develops when your immune system, which defends your body against disease, decides your healthy cells are foreign. As a result your immune system attacks healthy cells. There are as many as 80 types of autoimmune diseases; many of which have similar symptoms.

Cardiovascular disease is the top killer of women and men in the United States (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2011). It is predicted by the CDC that an American will have a severe cardiac event in about every 25 seconds. By reducing or eliminating controllable risk factors, one “could prevent or postpone substantially more deaths from CHD” (Capewell et al., 2010, p. 120). Heart disease, which researchers may refer to as coronary artery disease (CAD), CHD, or cardiovascular disease (CVD), can
week's piece, I might want to bring issues to light of chronic diseases on the grounds that numerous individuals say they will presumably create a chronic sickness as a regular part of getting more seasoned. Chronic Disease is a durable condition that can be controlled yet not cured. Chronic sickness influences the general public around the world. Chronic diseases, for example, coronary illness, stroke, growth, chronic respiratory diseases, obesity and overweight and diabetes, are by a wide margin the
Healthy People 2020 strives to increase public awareness and understanding of disease and disability and the opportunities we, as individuals, have to prevent them. Healthy People 2020 focuses on emphasizing health detriments among different levels. Healthy People provides health enhancing goals through social and physical environments
Heart disease is often regarded as a problem that most people are born with or something that only happens in older adults; and also can happen to anyone. In fact, according to Medline, heart disease is the most common cause of death in the United States. The majority of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is caused by risk factors that are controllable and uncontrollable. The risk factors of heart attacks are a leading killer of both men and women in the United States. “Heart disease is the leading cause
There are many known genetic diseases in the world. There are different types such as chromosomal and monogenic. Chromosomal disorders are when someone has too many or not as many chromosome as they are suppose to have (46 total chromosomes). Chromosomal disorders can also manifest when there are structural abnormalities. Monogenic disorders are an inherited medical condition caused by a DNA abnormalities. These diseases occur all throughout the world today. Depending on what region of the world
