What did Hahnemann believe triggered diseases?

  • Imbalances in humors

  • Miasmas

  • Bad spirits

  • Genetics

Answer

Miasmas, according to Hahnemann's theory, were the underlying causes of diseases. These miasmas were believed to be invisible, dynamic, and capable of self-propagation. Hahnemann identified three primary miasmas: psora, syphilis, and sycosis. Psora was thought to be the root cause of chronic diseases, while syphilis and sycosis were associated with specific disease manifestations.
