What causes disease and illnesses and body malfunctions ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cause of illnesses: There are MANY causes of illness, lifestyle, genes, nutrition, smoking, stress, etc. They combine together to produce imbalance or illness. Most doctor visits are the result of poor lifestyle choices and stress but please continue to be monitored by your doc. Focus on good nutrition, exercise, and stress management. We are not at the mercy of our genes. Lifestyle can help turn them on or off.
