Healing potential

"Humans inherit self-healing potential for biologic survival. However, this potential to self-heal is considerably affected by stress level, medical history, nutrition, and lifestyle, as well as by genetic endowment and age. Each person, therefore, has a different potential for self-healing capacity, and this potential for self-healing is also changing dynamically. It deteriorates in people who abuse their health, and it improves in those who take good care of themselves."
