Noninfectious Disease

Real World Example

Imagine dealing with a cluttered closet that seems to overflow with clothes and items, making it hard to find what you need. Just like how a cluttered closet is a personal issue that doesn't affect your neighbor's closet, noninfectious diseases like asthma and diabetes are conditions that affect an individual but aren't spread from person to person. In this analogy, the overflowing closet represents the internal imbalance or dysfunction in your body that leads to these diseases, while the fact that it doesn't affect your neighbor's closet illustrates how these diseases are not transmitted between individuals.
