Each present cause of an illness creates an illness element, an elementary illness.<\/p>\n<p>An <strong>elementary cure<\/strong> addresses a single cause, curing an element of illness.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>A <strong>compound illness<\/strong> consists of two or more illness elements, has two or more causes, requires two or more cures.\u00a0Compound illnesses are often diagnosed as single diseases.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5884\" class=\"gh gi dd at gj b gk gl gm gn go gp gq gr gs gt gu\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">A\u00a0<strong class=\"gj gv\">secondary illness<\/strong>\u00a0is an illness caused by an illness.\u00a0<strong class=\"gj gv\">Injuries<\/strong>\u00a0are the most common secondary illnesses because illnesses uncured create more and more severe signs and symptoms, leading to injuries. If the causal illness is also present, there exists:<\/p>\n<p id=\"e595\" class=\"gh gi dd at gj b gk gl gm gn go gp gq gr gs gt gu\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">A<strong class=\"gj gv\">\u00a0Complex illness<\/strong>, consisting of an illness causing a secondary illness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gh gi dd at gj b gk gl gm gn go gp gq gr gs gt gu\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\">A\u00a0<strong class=\"gj gv\">chronic illness<\/strong>\u00a0has a chronic present cause. The cause is often insufficient to create an illness when not chronic. A\u00a0<strong class=\"gj gv\">repeating illness<\/strong>\u00a0has a repeating cause or the repeating presence of a cause. Often their causes do not create illness until they are chronic.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"gj gv\">Illnesses uncured<\/strong>\u00a0can accumulate causes, progressing from elements of illness to compound, secondary, complex, repeating, and chronic illnesses. This progression is often viewed as a single disease by conventional medicine.<\/p>\n<h1>Causes of Illness<\/h1>\n<p>Causes of illness are natural processes or things that do not cause illness most of the time. Most causes are healthy, causing healthiness, rarely causing illness .Illness is created when the cause disrupts a life entity.<\/p>\n<p>There are two fundamental\u00a0<strong>causes of illness<\/strong>: <strong>negative causal processes<\/strong> and <strong>negative attributes<\/strong>, which create the two basic types of illness: <strong>causal illnesses<\/strong> and <strong>attribute illnesses<\/strong>. Most causes are healthy, rarely causing illness.\u00a0<strong>Injuries<\/strong> are attribute illness. The injury is the present cause. Many injuries are secondary illnesses.<\/p>\n<p>The present cause of an illness might be in the diet, the body, the mind, the spirits, the communities, or the environment of the afflicted. The illness might be due to the presence of a cause, or the (presence of an) absence of a necessary to health. In each case, the cure is to address the present cause.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/healthicine.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ProgressionOfIllness-blog.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6510 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/healthicine.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ProgressionOfIllness-blog.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"http:\/\/healthicine.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ProgressionOfIllness-blog.jpg 600w, http:\/\/healthicine.org\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/ProgressionOfIllness-blog-300x162.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This image illustrates the natural progression of illness elements when causes are not addressed, when illnesses are not cured.

Causal cures must be maintained to maintain the cured status.<\/p>\n<p>An <strong>attribute transformation<\/strong> cures an attribute illness element.

No cure is permanent. An illness is not something that can <em>go away<\/em> and later\u00a0<em>return<\/em>. Any cured illness might occur again when the cause occurs again.<\/p>\n<p>No cures are spontaneous. Claims of spontaneity are only made when we do not understand the cause and the cause of the cure. The common cold is cured by health: when we are healthier, we get fewer colds and cure them faster. When we are less healthy, we get more colds which last longer.<\/p>\n<p>The concepts in this post are explored further in the paper <a
