Naturopathy does not believe in the specific cause of disease and its specific treatment but takes into account the totality of factors responsible for disease such as one’s unnatural habits in living, thinking, working, sleeping, relaxing, sexual indulgence ete. and also considers the environmental factors involved whieh on the whole disturb the normal funetioning of the body and lead it to a morbid, weak and toxic state.
