Why don’t we know the causes of our disease? Today, most adults have a disease or two. According to the US Centers For Disease Control, “As of 2012, about half of all adults—117 million people—had one or more chronic health conditions. One in four adults had two or more chronic health conditions.… Seven of the top 10 causes of death in 2014 were chronic diseases.” More than half of US citizens have, not just a disease, but a chronic disease. Older adults might have two, or three diseases.
What is the cause of your disease? Why don’t you know? Think about it.
When we know the cause of our disease, we know the cure. The cure for any active disease is to address the cause. Every cause has a cause – and if the cause is a process, addressing the cause of a cause will also cure.
Chronic diseases have chronic causes. In current medical theories, no medicine can cure a chronic disease. It’s a failure to understand cause. The cure for a chronic disease, is to address the chronic nature of the cause. But, when we don’t know the cause, we can’t find the cure.
If the cause is the cure, why don’t we know the cause of our disease? Because modern medicine gives up on, and ignores cures.
A cure proves what was the cause. There is no better proof of cause, than a cure.
If you go to your doctor, about your chronic disease, you might be given a prescription for a ‘treatment’ for the signs and symptoms of your disease. You will not be given a prescription for a cure. Why can’t medicine cure a chronic disease? When the cause is chronic, it can only be ‘treated’ by a medicine that is ‘chronic’. But it can’t be cured. As soon as the chronic medicine is stopped, the signs and symptoms of the disease re-appear. It was never cured. The only cure for a chronic disease is chronic healthiness.
Why don’t we know the cause of our disease? Because we can’t cure it. Why can’t we cure the cause of our disease? Because we don’t know the cause.
Oh, maybe we know the ‘statistical cause’. Statistical causes are great, but they’re not causes, they’re “risk factors”. What’s the difference between a cause and a risk factor? Every disease has dozens of risk factors. Cancer is caused by everything, prevented by everything, and cured by everything – or so it seems from reading the press. Arthritis, back pain, depression, obesity, even diabetes, Alzheimer’s and scurvy have lots of statistical causes.
But risk factors don’t cure. Risk factors can’t cure. Risk factors are often useful for preventatives, but not at all useful for cures – unless they are also the cause in a specific case. Cures require identification of and addressing of specific causes for each case. Every case of an illness is a specific case, a story, an anecdote. Every cure is a specific case, a story an anecdote. Statisticians don’t like anecdotes…
Only real causes cure. Why don’t we know the cause of our disease? Because when we know the cause, and we address the cause – the only way to prove a cause – the disease is cured. So we don’t have a disease anymore. Unfortunately, when we cure our disease – in most cases, the cure cannot be proven. Cure does not exist for most diseases, in conventional, nor in alternative medicine today.
But most of us have a disease or two. When we have a chronic disease, it’s because we don’t understand the chronic nature of the cause. If we want to find the cause, we need to cure our disease. If we are to cure our diseases, we need to find the cause.
Is it an infinite loop? Is it a Catch-22? No. There is one exit from the loop. Find the cause of our disease, and we can cure it. We need to move from chronic diseases, to chronic healthiness.
to your health, tracy
