NATURAL FOOD REMEDIES FOR IMMUNITY & ENERGY

UNDERSTAND HOW YOU CAN REALLY ACQUIRE AIDS & WHAT YOU CAN DO TO OVERCOME! Please Help Get The Word Out & Save Friends!

We are more vulnerable to smaller microbes (bug appearance) than outside bugs like the “Kissing bug”, Rocky Mountain Tick, mosquitos, etc.than we comprehend.  Many people survive their bites while others suffer shock or potential death. Most likely, it is best that we only see what they do or we would become very distressed. The primary determinant of immune potency is whether your immune system is capable of protecting you or is it sub performing.Our immunity function is not only a protection against these intruders but also vital in supporting our body’s reservoir of energy.

 

Did you know that we all walk around with many bacteria, virus and microbes. When our Immunity is Strong, then all the microbes don’t stand a chance. Don’t wait to give them a chance! Now, before it becomes serious!

The energy and natural balance re-established through 100% natural proven remedies are available in your kitchen. If you have AIDS then this process will take a little time to get comfortable with. Understand the condition took awhile to get to this stage, so the solution needs time to be worked on until your immune system wins, reconstructs, managing all your internal soldiers (T cells, White cells, Red cells) into a “Shock & Awe” victory. There are specific foods and herbs that increase soldier growth dramatically while strengthening their function.

Beneath you will discover essential information and entrée to a natural, thriving method to re-establish your body systems to optimize your body’s immunity.  

THE AIDS DIET- FOODS THAT ARE GOOD FOR YOU & FOOD TO AVOID

It is very important understand the reason behind this condition and what led to the eventual downfall of the human body. Typically, a client’s history will show that he/she became involved in behavior that is conducive to imbalance. The imbalance will cause the physical abnormalities that correspond to a specific body type. The principal constitution sub-types are not difficult to understand. There are 6 basic types:


cold <———————–> hot
damp <———————-> dry
deficient <——————> excess

Usually, all of us fall into one body type. Those in good health will sustain or reside in the center of each of these constitutions.

  • For example, (1), A well individual will sustain his body temperature, neither too warm or too cool, ideal would be slightly neutral.
  • Secondly, (2), the damp type has a system that has difficulty eradicating excess fluids which the person would benefit by eating diuretic foods
  • Thirdly, (3), a deficient person needs to be determined what she is deficient of. Is it vitamins, minerals, energy, sleep, disregarding foods and variety that would assist balance, etc.

The primary goal is to move your constitution to the center or neutral. This is where healing takes place. Additionally, a successful outcome requires a patient to take responsiblity and consciously involved in their treatment.

Here is where the master herbalist, specializing in traditional Chinese  medicine, focusses because 90% of all imbalance stems from what we are putting in our mouths. Either it is too much of one food or foods from one constitutional type. I recommend you consult a master herbalist with more than 10 years experience that is trained in assessing your constitution.

Don’t Pass This By! Here’s The Help With Anxiety You Were Asking For!

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

The cause of anxiety is well established. When enough stress is presented to the physical-mental-emotional body, nervous behaviors are likely to surface. Excessive concern and thought may disturb initial stages of restful sleep. When the internal organs do not have enough energy then they will create disturbing sensations such as palpitations, spasms, high blood pressure, restless leg, etc. owing to energy absence. Take care of yourself, remove distractions from rest, exercise, be around caring people until you can master the challenges you are confronted with. Eat nutritious food and take natural herbs that don’t add to the imbalance but rather help in re-establishing your center. Consider working with a counselor/pychotherapist to find alternatives to your current anxiety management strategies. 

Here is a key element. Food choices which reduce the pre-condition for anxiety symptoms. 

ANXIETY FREE DIET 

Foods to Counter Anxiety: Apricot, Cherry, Date, Fig, Grape, Grapefruit, Olive, Papaya, Peach, Strawberry, Tomato, Beet, Button mushroom, Cabbage, Carrot, Celery, Chard, Cucumber, Eggplant, Kuzu, Lettuce, Potato, Shitake mushroom, Spearmint, Squash, Sweet Potato, Yam, Almond, Chestnut, Coconut, Sesame seed/oil, Sunflower seed, Amasake, stevia, Agave nectar, Ganoderm, Dill, Basil, Mulberry, Lemons, Brown rice, Oats, Ghee, Green tea

Foods to Avoid: Beef, Tofu, Tempeh, Soy milk, Spinach, Miso, Asparagus, , Millet, Salt, Seaweed, Tangerine, Pinenut, Persimmon, Pear, Honey, Sugar, Oyster, Clam, Mussel, Pork, Peanut

Processed Foods to Avoid: Artificial Sweeteners, Coffee, Wine (beyond 1 oz. per day), Baked Beans (sugar), Baked Goods (doughnuts, cakes contain excess trans fats, sugars), Breakfast Cereals (sugar, processed grain, low nutrition), Campbell’s Condensed Soups (hi sodium), pot pies (hi calory/fat), Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) foods, Hotdogs (unknown ingredients, sodium nitrate), Luncheon Meats (too many additives, sodium nitrate), Margarine (highly toxic), Ramen Noodles (no nutrients, excess sodium), Refined Vegetable Oils (corn, cottonseed, soybeans, safflower seeds and canola), Saltines (excess carb & sodium), Sausages & cured meats (too many additives, sodium nitrate), White & Wheat bread (no nutrition), White Pasta (extremely hi carb & sodium), White Potatoes (solanine-calcium depletion & arthritic pain), Chips & French fries, Cocktails (excess sugar/liver toxicity), Fruit Juice (loaded w/ sugar), Fruit Smoothie (loaded w/ syrup, make your own), Dairy products except goat’s milk (pure mucous), Sodas (removes rust from metal, excess carbon dioxide, imbalances digestive system), Excessive Protein (loss of calcium, damages kidneys)

 

When I had an anxiety attack, I didn’t know about nutrition and herbology and at that time, I could not imagine that traditional Chinese herbs would have been effective with other modalities of treatment. In a stressed-out condition, there is a need for quick and strong relief. Longevity is founded on healthy foods, herbs and natural medicinal approaches to health and balance.

Individual Constitution will affect outcomes from all foods. For instance, a person that has a cold constitution should not eat foods that make the body colder. If a person does then pain will present in the place where cold is sensed. Body function becomes sluggish. But in general the above selection benefits most people. If you want to get customized then I would suggest contacting, specifically, an Asian Medicine Herbalist. Notice I didn’t say accupuncturist.

Eating Healthy In A Fast Food World

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Speeding to Eat

Folks’s lives have become thus busy and speeding around, that we have a tendency to not eat the manner we have a tendency to should. In some places, there is a McDonald’s on each major corner, if not some other quick food restaurant. Watching TV, you see a industrial for some reasonably food place nearly each time commercials are on, urging you to eat there because it’s sensible and you’ll get it quick and cheap. With thus several distractions and obligations, families have these days, how does one eat healthy during a quick food world? It’s not an simple issue to try and do however is potential with coming up with and knowing what to look for. This isn’t to mention fast food will’t be consumed occasionally, but it ought to be less typically than individuals do it now. Not to say that our food is so processed that it takes 5 minutes to cook and has high carbohydrates among other things that are not digested quickly. This can be leading to obesity in the population.

The Truth Concerning Whole Grain

As a result of food is so processed nowadays to form it faster to cook, as well as a lot of convenient for the manner our lives have become, it’s truly not as good for you as it once was. Recently the food administration even changed the food pyramid to coincide with how we tend to eat these days and food is made. They are suggesting more whole grains than ever before, also vegetables. This may sound like what has been told to children for years, but even whole grains are deceiving on packaging these days. With all the new diets out there for low carb, no carb, low fat, no fat, etc., foods are coming out that say whole grain but are just as processed as its white counterpart. They are made with enriched wheat. This process gets rid of all the nutrients and other things that take time to digest for a healthy life. Reading the ingredient is a sensible way to search out the important whole grain product. They’re currently additional expensive than the over processed product as a result of makers may build the enriched version cheaper and faster. To eat healthy you’ve got to scan the labels of everything you consume.

Healthy Selections at Fast Food Eateries

The reality is that you actually can’t eat healthy at any fast food restaurant. They aren’t designed for those trying or needing to look at what they put in their mouth. But you’ll be able to make better decisions. Don’t’ eat the bread if you’ll be able to stand not too. It’s along the lines of the South Beach Diet however that’s where heaps of your weight gaining properties are. Don’t get anything fried, this includes French fries, onion rings, or maybe fried chicken. Get a diet pop, tea, or water. Avoid the desert and the salad, each have sugar in them and I don’t simply mean within the toppings. Watch “Super Size Me” for a true eye opener. The show is on McDonald’s however you’ll bet that every one fast food restaurants are essentially the same. Limit how often you eat quick food to once per week, if that fast. Get a wrap at Subway instead of a toasted sub. Less bread and simply as filling with all the fixings you want. After you get pizza, get vegetables on it thus you aren’t just eating bread, sauce, cheese, and pepperoni. Keep in mind just how bad quick food is for you, your waistline, and your cholesterol. Even if you’re fifteen, you ought to be puzzling over how it will have an effect on you later in life. Starting early can create it easier on your body as you age.

Eating at Home

The most effective thing to do is find a approach to cook meals most nights of the week. This will take planning and team work. Have a minimum of one non-meat dish every week. It doesn’t need to be fish or seafood either. Don’t use fast cooking made to go together with your meals. Those are once more loaded with carbohydrates, which take your body longer to break down and will create you hungry previous you ought to be. Set up weekly meals so that you’ll be able to cook casseroles and alternative straightforward to reheat dishes early in the week for days you will not have time to cook. Utilize your crock-pot and acquire a recipe book for it. You can make just regarding anything during a crock pot nowadays and have a good meal after you get home. Have salad a few times a week with dinner, however watch how much dressing you put on it. Have desert, but create it Jell-O. Indulge once in an exceedingly while to though and it won’t feel like you’re depriving yourself of anything.

Eat More Veggies. Eat More Fruit. Get Healthy–Really?

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

While it’s common to work out scientific studies on how health will be improved by using certain, specific supplements of vitamins and minerals it is not the identical for the 000 McCoy.

How true? Ask yourself and do a goggle search (or a PUB Med or any advanced search of scientific articles) concerning how several times you see a study–any study–on a specific fruit or vegetable that comes out proving some health improvement. Not a cluster, but a explicit fruit or vegetable. And proof of health, not disease (this is often an vital distinction).

We tend to are talking regarding real science here not just made up stuff from some science nut or health nut. And we tend to are talking concerning real fruits and vegetables like a particular apple or broccoli as opposed to a cluster of fruits or vegetables. In alternative words we are talking regarding one thing terribly concrete and certainly not abstract–this can be where real scientific study comes in very handy: such study isn’t abstract or it is not science. And, importantly, if I will prove it and you cannot, it is not scientifically provable. Period.

How many? Which vegetable? Which fruit?

There are masses of promoters of eating recent fruits and vegetables and several of them offer solid credentials like the Harvard, Tufts, Eat five each day, and so on (for a very sensible goggle search attempt vegetables and health or fruits and health).

As an example, the Harvard web site cites the most recent dietary pointers that, “decision for five to 13 servings of fruits and vegetables a day, relying on one’s caloric intake. For a one that needs a pair of,000 calories every day to keep up weight and health, this interprets into nine servings, or four½ cups per day.” The citation for this is The USDA, the U.S. Department of Agriculture. It’s a useful abstraction however not a explicit guide to specific fruits and vegetables and the way they will promote your health.

However most of what these prestigious institutions promote is air–no scientific studies demonstrating the health effects of one fruit or vegetable may be found on the Harvard site, not one. True, it’s nice air, but air nevertheless.

Now we don’t seem to be talking regarding the real analysis on fruits and vegetables like this one listed in Pub Med, “Electron beam and gamma irradiation effectively cut back Listeria monocytogenes populations on chopped romaine lettuce”, (J Food Prot. 2006 Mar;sixty nine(3):570-four, for those that want to know) . This kind of analysis is not when the health promoting effects of eating, in this case, romaine lettuce. And it will not faux to be something other than what it is.

After all sites promoting the health advantages of eating of fruits and vegetables might be hiding the scientific studies and don’t need to hassle their guests with all those numbers and scientific names for turnips or plums. Or farmers who grow the really good stuff and the way to buy them.

I bear in mind a study regarding folate and green leafy vegetables and some kids on an island in the South Pacific. The study, a real scientific study, had to be halted as a result of the scientists found that the kids within the study could not get enough folate for his or her diets from the contemporary vegetables as a result of the vegetables themselves were deficient. Thus the study stopped because, ethically, depriving the youngsters’s diet of this essential ingredient could hurt them–particularly when the science proved the children would be deficient on a natural diet. So a lot of for the health promoting edges of this whole cluster of vegetables–and I’ve got not seen another study to refute this single isolated, explicit controlled scientific study on inexperienced leafy vegetable and precisely how they promote health in humans.

So how do you recognize if the fruits or vegetables you eat will really promote higher health? Simple answer is you don’t. But then once more, if you stopped eating fruits and vegetables what would happen? May be all those diseases they write about in Pub Med and cited by the Tufts nutritionists and become the quilt story about our fat nation for Time Magazine: eat your fruits and veggies and keep healthy or until we tend to recognize, for positive, one thing different.

The do’s of reading and understanding food labels

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Eating a balanced diet is an important daily habit to promote ideal health and proper nutrition. If you want to live healthy you need to make wise choices of foods to eat. We keep trying to read the labels of our food products. Most importantly, this is to check the fat, sodium and caloric content of each serving of the food items that we purchase.

Making choices on the food that we eat are made easy by the guidance that we get from nutritional labels. Nutritional labels should not be taken for granted in shopping, planning and cooking you meals as they serve a lot of health benefits.

Reading from the food label panel will provide you rich information on the nutrition that you can possibly get from the food you eat. It helps you to compare one food product brand to another and to make the right choice of food item to buy that are essentially high in nutrition with low in fats, sodium and cholesterol.

In order to burn fat and improve health, always emphasize fruits and vegetables, grains, low fat milk, poultry, fish, lean meat and nuts on your daily diet. These are highly nutrient and low in fats, sugar and cholesterol content – perfect for the body’s nutritional needs.

Nutritional labels on food products play a role in our diet plans. Sadly, people neglect the value of checking food labels when shopping for food. Strategically, food products are made sure to have an appeal to the general public. Do not be deceived by the flaunting package of different food products to attract consumers while neglecting the nutritional value of the food they manufacture.

An understanding how the food label can help you define more healthy food choices will make you appreciate the food labels with its nutritional information at the back of the package more than the packaging presentation itself.

Always be conscious to observe the habit of reading the food labels before making any purchase of any food product you are about to buy to do yourself a favor of choosing the right kind of food with proper nutrition content. Remember reading the food labels is the best way to ensure that you are purchasing low fat high protein foods.

WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW FOR BACK & LEG PAIN

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

As with most symptoms, lower back pain takes time to develop, however, when the cause is determined, the pain can be interrupted, gratefully. We have to look at our lifestyle, nutrition, how we think & feel, etc. to unravel the condition. You could take a pain reliever but still the underlying imbalance will be there after the relief is gone. The key word for low back pain is DEFICIENCY.

Causative Setting: Holistically speaking, our lifestyle and ability to manage it appears to be overstressing most of us whereas our circulatory systems are tight and obstructing thus preventing nutrients to nourish us and elimination of toxins. Our dietary preferences in the U.S. are excessive while empty of nutrients, full of preservatives, pesticides, hormones and processed with additives. This generation endures more stress, changes and emotions keeping us up later and/or deep sleep is not achieved. The result is we lack the necessary energy or life force to be our best. This further makes us irritable in our relationships which worsens all the scenarios described before.

As we break down our energy, immunity and support, our self image and esteem parallels our internal organs ability to weather the challenge. In particular our kidneys and adrenals become weakened or deficient requiring us to take back what has been given up to regain our essence, vitality, our quality of life.

To begin, we need to construct successful strategies in the areas of nutrition, sleep, and lifestyle. This resource is designed to provide some winning solutions so you can quickly re-engage living rather than aging or dying too soon.

FOOD THERAPY: CONSTIPATION RELIEF & PREVENTION

Saturday, January 2nd, 2010

What is constipation?

There are 4 basic types of constipation described are:

  • infrequent stools
  • hard stools
  • difficulty passing stools (straining)
  • sense of incomplete emptying after a bowel movement.

The rationale following each one of these “types” of constipation is dissimilar, and the method for each requires customization. Constipation can be followed by diarrhea. This pattern has been associated with the more serious condition of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). And the most serious case of constipation is complete impaction, where stool hardens in the rectum and no passage of stool results.

As we age, our bowel movement reduce. While most people have a bowel movement once a day, slightly less than 50% of the adult population seem to enjoy the regular pattern. The other half are irregular and do not have bowel movements every day.

 

Quick Constipation Assessment 

  • Healthy bowell movement: regular daily bowel movement.
  • Constipation is considered a real problem when there are fewer than three bowel movements per week.
  • At what time, constipation is critical; people will experience less than one bowel movement per week.

Medical specialists embrace the point that there is no medical explanation to having a bowel movement daily. Additionally, they have determined not having a bowel movement for 2-3 days does not cause discomfort, only mental concern for some people. Medical researchers and doctors support there is no evidence that “toxins” accumulate when bowel movements are infrequent or that constipation leads to cancer. This statement is contrary to natural and Chinese herbs practitioner(s). However, the discomfort needs be resolved and the most effective source of relief and correction comes Chinese herbs for constipation.

It is important to discern acute (recent onset) constipation from chronic (long duration) constipation. You need to approach your health practitioner with your constipation concerns regarding the following:

  • Acute constipation needs immediate assessment because a serious medical illness may be the underlying cause (e.g., tumors of the colon).
  • Additionally, constipation needs to be assessed if it occurs with serious symptoms such as rectal bleeding, abdominal pain and cramps, nausea and vomiting, and involuntary weight loss.
  • In comparison, the assessment of chronic constipation may not need attention, especially, if simple aid brings relief.

 

OK! THE NATURAL MEDICINE EXPLANATION 

WHAT IS THE UNDERLYING CAUSE OF CONSTIPATION & WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THE IMBALANCE?

While the medical model describes and defines the condition of constipation, it is not clear what the underlying causation is. To say there is an inflammation or infection behind constipation may fall short for our purposes. Though there may be inflammation, its important to understand the precondItion and unseen phenomena creating this toxic condition.

The comparison of weather and condition will provide us the understanding of what is happening with constipation. At what time, its hot and dry, we have a desert environment. What occurs is that all elimination dries up. When the environment is cold and damp then the condtions are boggy-everything is moist. When these conditions occur in the elimination tracts, then our fecal matter is transformed. If our descending colon and rectum are too warm then it dehydrates our elimination. The result is that it becomes dry and hardened. It also slows down due to excess friction and lack of lubricating mucous. Chinese herbs for constipation will counter the above conditions.

FOOD THERAPY FOR CONSTIPATION

To counteract this drying process, ingest cooling food and herbs. Nutritional Food therapy such as: salads, green beans, spinach, etc. and cooling fruit like melons,pineapple, etc.
