<p style="text-align:justify;">The term ‘hetu’ means a cause or etiological factor.  Understanding the cause of the disease is crucial for complete knowledge of pathogenesis and treatment. Eradication or removal of the cause is the primary treatment of any abnormal condition. It helps in the prevention and recurrence of diseases, too.

The current healthcare system focuses on finding out a pathogenic micro-organism that causes diseases. Ayurveda, on the contrary, emphasizes the lacunae or defects in biological systems (kha -vaigunya) that occurred due to various reasons including, improper diet and lifestyle. The defense mechanism or immunity is vital to preserving health and prevent disease. The long-term exposure of weak causes or short-term exposure of potent causes can adversely affect the body channels. This gives a chance to the micro-organisms to overpower immunity, spread their toxins, and cause diseases. In the case of non-communicable diseases, the endogenous causes can cause damage. This article describes the etiology, various types of causes, and their importance in medical practice.
