Diet is one of the major contributors to health, or a lack of.
In homeopathy, we need to categorise causes of ill health because we treat them differently.
An exciting cause normally comes from an accident of some type - injury, burn, bite, shock fright, etc. It was a single event that had a big impact, that will usually resolve itself in time, or if it was major, can lead to death without urgent support.
A maintaining cause of poor health means that what you’re doing does not support your immune system, so its ability is being gradually diminished. It’s slow and progressive, but generally doesn’t kill you. What will kill you is the consequences from it.
The good news is that, unless it has progressed too far, that may vary for each individual and who knows what that really is, you can restore the immune system’s ability to work well.
Some examples of maintaining causes including living in a cold, damp environment, living in an abusive relationship or family, or living without love especially for a youngster, breathing in toxic fumes, living or working near high radiation levels - atomic plants, 5G towers, even the old electrical generators, microwaves and so on.
Working in a job that violates your core values.
Diet also comes into this category.

Cats are believed to have come from the arid areas of the world. In other words, where water is scare or even unavailable. To survive, they adapted certain traits. One is that when they catch and consume their prey, they make sure they consume everything, including the blood.
