In this article, we will explore the top 10 underlying causes of most health problems.
It is estimated that approximately 6 in 10 adults in the US have at least one chronic health condition, and 4 in 10 adults have two or more chronic conditions. However, most health problems come back to the same underlying causes that, if addressed, can restore overall health.
Western medicine and even some alternative approaches take a bandaid approach to treating symptoms, while this approach can provide temporary relief, it often fails to address the root cause of chronic conditions, leaving people to deal with ongoing symptoms and health issues. By addressing underlying causes, we have the potential to improve and even eliminate health problems.
This approach involves looking at the whole person and considering factors such as lifestyle, diet, stress, and environmental factors that may contribute to their health issues.
If you’re struggling with chronic health issues that are impacting your daily life consider the ten possible causes and get curious!
The Top 10 Underlying Causes Of Most Health Problems are:
- NUTRITIONAL DEFICIENCY AND ACID pH: Processed foods, deficient soil, too many acidic foods, sugar, caffeine & alcohol, stressors, & EMF’s, all make the body acidic. All kinds of health issues arise when the body is acidic or when key nutritional & mineral deficiencies exist.
- IMPAIRED DIGESTION AND GUT ECOLOGY IMBALANCE
- IMPAIRED DETOXIFICATION PATHWAYS: Cleanse & Detoxify Colon, Liver & Kidneys. And renew the body at a cellular level.
- TOXICITY:Exposure to heavy metals, chemical insults, pesticides, glyphosate, plastics, drug residues, organophosphates, xeno-estrogens, artificial sweeteners, etc.
- EMF EXPOSURE & POLLUTION: Cell phones, WIFI, microwaves, electrical wiring, etc.
- INFECTION: Bacterial, viral, or parasitic. Many symptoms and illnesses have parasites as a driver.
- DENTAL ISSUES: Toxic Dental Materials in the mouth and hidden dental infections.
- EMOTIONAL ISSUES AND SUBCONSCIOUS BLOCKS: Often, long-standing unresolved emotional issues, trauma from childhood, or subconscious beliefs are in the way of a person’s ability to completely heal.
- STRESS & MENTAL & SPIRITUAL ISSUES: Are you happy? Is there joy & meaning in your life? How well are you managing your stress? Are you able to find peace and balance in your life?
- INJURIES AND PHYSICAL TRAUMA: Caused by surgeries, scars, blows, or traumas to the body which then impedes the normal, healthy electromagnetic flow of the body’s acupuncture meridian system, thus diminishing the function of nearby organs and glands. These injuries and traumas can be a missing factor as to why a health condition or symptom will not resolve.
Our approach at Thrive Wellness is to identify and eliminate the underlying drivers of health problems, thereby restoring health to the body, instead of just managing the condition or suppressing the symptoms.
