Restorative

left
Restorative, also known as Recovery , Healing, and Zombie, is an element in several games in the Final Fantasy series that is usually associated with either healing or reviving abilities, such as Raise or Cure.
It differs from the Holy element as the latter damages enemies and does extra damage on undead and demon enemies while Cure will restore HP to allies and enemies but does damage (often matching) to undead and demon enemies.

Restorative is an element, referred to as "Restorative magic" when using Sense on the enemy if they are affected by it. It is unique among other elements as it is the only one that does not deal damage by default, instead it restores HP. Therefore absorbing the element will instead do damage on the enemy, a trait which many of the undead enemies have.
