But don't go into the realm of logic on this one my friend. Just accept that, regardless of supernatural healing abilities, noone seems to be able to re-grow their own heart. In any of these shows. Ever. Because it would require a heart pumping white blood cells to the affected area? Interesting theory. Depends on whether or not these supernatural creatures just have an enhanced form of the body's natural method of healing, or if it's completely independent of the body and merely magical and logic-defying and (to be honest) aggravating as all fuck. Supernatural creatures have an enhanced form of the body's natural healing method. If you break down the word supernatural. It would be like this "Super + natural". The word "Super" is just another way of saying that what they are doing is incredible. But it's a natural ability that we as humans can one day do.

As far as their healing abilities go, it really depends on what level their regenerative healing abilities are at & it "kinda" depends on how it works. In the world of fiction there are different levels of regenerative healing. They are unstable, basic, expert, advanced, master, & god level.

Unstable level:(an example would be Derek hale) People with this level usually have an unreliable healing ability. As it might have a limit of some kind or may coo me at a cost. Seeing as Derek wound took time to heal when he was scratched by Brett & that he's losing his power. We could "kinda" use him as an example.

Basic level:(this is basically "our" or normal human level heal) We could say that this is kinda were our healing ability falls in. As minor wounds such as cuts, bruises,& light burns would heal in hours & minutes(mostly depends on the damage). Even recovering from minor to moderate blood loss. Now for critical wounds like lost limbs, damaged nerves, & internal organs cannot be regenerated as the wound from the lost limb would simple close up & lost organs would remain lost. As damage nerve cells fatally burned would leave scars.

Expert level:(example: captain America,spider-man, & teen wolf werewolves) With this healing level, external wounds like fractured bones and deeper burns may heal at a much more of an accelerated rate, as the severity of the damage wouldn't even really matter. Cellular & genetic damage would be reduce, in return this would extend the users life span. This person could also survive severe blood loss. Minor internal organs may heal while sever organ damage may be beyond repair & may take more time to heal. While the nerves may remain damaged.

Advanced level:(possible examples: wolverine,sabertooth,& deadpool) people with this level of healing would be able to heal minor to moderate wounds to near-instantaneously as if they never happened. Lost limbs and internal organs maybe able to completely regenerate. Their wounds no matter how sever wouldn't even leave a scar. Cellular senescence would also be completely halted, allowing eternal youth. They would even be immune to disease. The only sure way to kill this user would be destroying their head completely.

Master level:( i can't really think of a good example) This users cellular regeneration & rejuvenation would be so powerful. They would be close to being an immortal. As even decapitation would be pointless as their brain cells and nerves would repair & keep the mind intact. The user will always be healthy. Disintegration might be the only way.

God level:(no example) They are basically immortal. The only way to kill them(if possible) would be to remove their soul or temporal erasure.

Name: Sean For Master level, maybe a literary example? Read Jennifer Fallon's Tide Lord series. The "immortals" in that series heal from just about any wound, even decapitation (though their mind/memories doesn't necessarily survive that experience intact).

God Level: Not sure, maybe a character from the Supernatural universe? Death, or Godstiel. Something along those lines.
