There are several types of diseases, syndromes, and illnesses. Some have more than one cause, or result from the body's reaction to another illness. A few major of the major kinds are:

External diseases

- bacterial diseases : caused by microorganisms, many parasitic, that feed on living organisms

- viral diseases : caused by viruses or viroids, parasitic proteins that only replicate inside host cells

Internal Diseases

- genetic and autoimmune diseases : caused by the malfunction of cells, or an attack on body cells by other cells of the body

- systemic diseases and syndromes : caused by imbalances in the production, function, or health of body cells (may be caused by age, diet, or lifestyle)

- deficiency diseases : caused by lack of nutrients that cells require to function properly

There are five broad classes of pathogens that can cause disease: bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoans and prions. Within each class, however, there are thousands of different species, strains, variants and mutations that give rise to disease.
