Dec 30

Posted by Dan in Uncategorized | No Comments

Chinese herbs and medicine is a 4000 year practice as far as recorded history (between 2100 – 1700 B.C.) goes. But in probability, Chinese herbal has been used for as long as man has been in this region of the planet. The use, most likely, dates back to the populating of China. Given there is considerable argument here, we’ll agree, its been a long time. In general, the practice of Traditional Chinese herbal herbs fits prominently in Chinese medicine practices. In fact, if you specialize in this area alone, you could be very busy and well known for helping a lot of people. For your information, we will show its prioritized position in Chinese medicine and explain its application in this framework. The purpose of showing this order is to encourage customers to view physical conditions and their solution in a graduated process. By living in our fast paced life-style with high stress, long work hours, reduced family contact, fast food, low nutrition, reduced energy, etc., our immune system becomes extra challenged. It doesn’t happen over night and thus care is recommended at the same pace as the conditioned was entered. The exception occurs when illness is urgent and life-threatening.

TAM (Traditional Asian Medicine) CARE
(Four Tiers of Asian Medicine)

  1. Food Therapy
  2. Herbal Therapy
  3. Exercise: Tai Chi & Qi Gong
  4. Acupuncture & Cupping

 

I. FOOD THERAPY 

“Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food.”
– Hippocrates circa 431 B.C.

Traditional Chinese Medicine first employs food as a therapeutic tool. Why? Because we are very pre-occupied with food. Our stomachs will let us know that we are hungry, so most of us, unless we are imbalanced, will eat 1-6 times per day unless food is not available. Given that, we eat, its imperative to think about what we are eating due to the fact, food has a major effect on the fitness of our bodies. If we drink pop, alcohol, eat desserts, cheese, candy, red meat, bread, processed foods, etc. Subsequently, speculate what comes to pass with the the body? It clogs up and gains weight and we get sick. If we eat vegetables, fruit, water, fish, then what happens? We open up, lose weight to balance and leanness and we can get well. The effective TAM practice will include food therapy with the knowledge of what food works best with a particular constitution. Has anyone ever pay attention to of, “You are what you eat”? What that means, is that certain foods will absolutely conclude the cell quality in the tissues of your body. Food, ideally, provides substance to make energy from, benefitting the cells so they can do their job. The more energy, the more capacity your cells have to do their jobs. If they are obstructed with poor choices, that fit your wants, then the result will be illness. Foods that balance your ailing constitution, are essential to re-establishing your health. Master herbalists, sophisticated in this specialty, will recommend this strategy in order to form a foundation for other traditional Asian medicine. Regardless of whatever remedial strategy, allopathic or naturopathic, treatment can be disrupted, if food remedy does not consistently accompany the therapeutic course of action. For that reason, food therapy is vital to reinstatement of your health. Though food is a more subtle remedy, its gradual nourishing effect, has the power to restore, unnoticed, only because it takes more time. Thus, when we get sick, it is difficult, to connect the dots as to how we got in that condition.

This dialogue on the Four echelon of Chinese Medicine is additionally enclosed at Longevity Mountain. For those of you who desire to know the prioritized next 3 levels, Chinese herbs, Chinese medicine exercise and Accupuncture/Cupping.

Can you cure Acid Reflux?

Dec 30

Posted by Dan in Uncategorized | No Comments

 

Acid reflux or GERD is a common health issue. It can affect both women and mens health. It is regurgitation of stomach content high in acid into the esophagus. Reflux is prevented by the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) which remains tightly closed and opens when peristaltic waves herald the imminent arrival of swallowed food. When the lower esophageal sphincter becomes incompetent acid reflux will result. This is called GERD or gastro-esophageal reflux disease.

Is it possible to cure your acid reflux? If it is due to true LES incompetence, then there is no cure. In LES incompetence, you need maintenance acid suppressant treatment such as omeprazole, or if very severe or you develop secondary problems then surgical surgical intervention with fundoplication will relieve your symptoms.

There are, however, various factors that can affect the efficiency of the LES and acid reflux. Eliminating these factors may avoid a trip to your doctor or taking over the counter medication. Sometimes all you need is a change of lifestyle.

Obesity can cause or contribute to GERD. It is more likely in the apple type distribution of weight. The increased bulk in the abdomen makes it difficult for the esophagus to discharge food effectively into the stomach. In addition obese individuals are prone to developing hiatus hernias. A hiatus hernia can weaken the LES. Losing weight is an important aspect of GERD treatment.

Acid reflux can be caused by wearing tight fitting clothes especially if it is two sizes too small. The pressure exerted on the stomach may trigger back flow into the gullet. Your acid reflux will improve if you wear loose clothes.

Large volume of food in the stomach will put pressure on the LES and can trigger acid reflux. It has happened to us all at some time or other. The large volume also increases gastric clearance time allowing more opportunity for reflux. Eating smaller portions more frequently will counter this problem.

Certain foods can affect GERD. Cow’s milk protein intolerance can cause esophagitis. It is called Allergic Eosinophilic Esophagitis. Removing cow’s milk protein from your diet will control this. Other foods such as fats, coffee, alcohol, tea and some spices can affect the lower esophageal sphincter.

The lower esophageal sphincter can be affected by some drugs and cause acid reflux. These drugs include broncho-dilators such as theophylline, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), tri-cyclic antidepressants ie amitryptilline and drugs for Parkinson’s disease.

Acid reflux is affected by female hormones. Women on hormones, in a Scandinavian Study had showed a greater risk. These drugs include the hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and the contraceptive pill. Sedatives and tranquillisers can slow down peristaltic waves in the esophagus affecting proper discharge of food from the esophagus.

Opt for liquid medication if you have GERD and need treatment. Certain drugs ie tetracycline are corrosive to the lining of the esophagus. Tablets and capsules (gelcaps) can lodge in the esophagus. Make it a habit to drink a glass of water to wash the medication down. Avoid taking medication while lying down. GERD patients should always take drugs standing or sitting up and avoid lying down immediately after.

Smoking relaxes the LES and nicotine is corrosive to esophageal lining. Acid Reflux symptoms improve when you give up smoking.

Certain exercises have been shown to increase the risk of GERD. Competitive weightlifting and cycling can do this. Joggers can develop GERD symptoms.

If by eliminating all the risk factors, your symptoms disappear, then you have actually cured your acid reflux. However, if the symptoms persist, the next step is a visit to your doctor.

Can You Afford Not To See This? Avoid Your Next Anxiety Attack!

Dec 29

Posted by Dan in Uncategorized | No Comments

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.Regard yourself, eliminate waking activities during rest time, add exercise, allow only sensitive people in your personal space until you are sustain the challenges. 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. Beneficial foods which diminishes characteristics of anxiety. 

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 this stressed-out state, you want fast, potent relief. But in the long run, healthy foods and natural approaches to health are very useful in reaching 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. Sluggish body function continues in pattern. 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. Understand, I am not selecting accupuncturists. It is very important to find someone who specializes in Chinese herbs or herbology  and food therapy regarding customized food and herb strategies.   

Anxiety relief can be found naturally with food therapy & traditional Chinese herbs.

Don’t Be Left Out! Get Rid Of Menopause At The Core!

Dec 29

Posted by Dan in Uncategorized | No Comments

Allopathic Medicine May Well Be Mistaken!

The position that the reason for all the menopause symptoms is due to an imbalance of hormones is a superficial perspective and deserves a deeper look. Menopause symptoms may include:

  • hot flashes
  • irregular periods
  • vaginal & urinary changes
  • sleep disturbances
  • feeling overwhelmed
  • weight gain
  • loss of desire
  • craving: sweet carbs, alcohol
  • minor to major depression
  • hair loss
  • ear ringing
  • headaches
  • bloating, nausea
  • worsening allergies
  • bone density loss
  • changes in breath & body odor
  • decreased fertility
  • night sweats
  • changes in appearance
  • fatigue
  • vaginal dryness
  • irritability
  • constipation/diarrhea
  • anxiety/palpitations
  • memory problems & fuzzy thinking
  • fibroids
  • aching joints
  • changes in menstruation
  • changes in sexual desire or function
  • mood swings
  • hair loss/thinning
  • Skin changes


Are these symptoms tied to deficiency of hormones? Could it be systemic? The whole body is may be suffering from top to bottom.

 

ANOTHER PROPOSAL – UNDERLYING CAUSE: 

 

Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective: Menopause is considered a deficiency condition of the liver and qi (life force). When the blood and energy quality is weak and toxic then all of the organs are not able to perform their job. This condition causes the liver to overheat which rises through the body, wreaking havoc in its path. The heart, lungs, digestion, glands, throat, mouth & teeth, nose, eyes, ears, brain, skin and hair become heated and dried resulting in the symptoms, listed above. In addition, the liver does not filter the blood where it becomes sluggish and clotted.

Because the body is deficient of essential body energy and quality filtered blood, then the glands do not perform normally. Their secretions may be sporadic or non-releasing altogether. while the blood is cleansed, usually enriched, then all the body’s organs advance. Progressively, the energy returns and body functionality re-stabilizes. The glandular functions, emit once again, supporting the body in its vital function.

The body is not deficient of hormones. The blood is clogged like sludge. Glands are not receiving/transmitting essential messages, timely and/or minimally!

Then why do we add or give more hormones. Doesn’t that risk an overload of hormones? Recall when you were a teenager and your hormones were extremely revved. We don’t want to risk going through that again. We have sufficient hormones. If we feed our blood, exercise not to exhaustion, sleep reasonable hours, keep a lifestyle of manageable stress, etc. our hormones come back and supports increased balance.

So if Chinese medicine knows the problem, then what is their answer to this to this deficiency? View underneath.

What Reinstates Regular Hormone Function? 

Chinese Medicine Has Had An Answer for this for More Than a 1000 Years!

Traditional Chinese Medicine has 20+ formulas for menopause. But which one is the best? This necessitates a experienced Master herbalist to answer this. While most women fall into 6 major constitution types such as:

  • cold
  • damp
  • deficient
  • hot
  • dry
  • excess

Most menopausal women are a deficient constitution with hot characteristics and benefit 95% of the time from Chinese herbs for menopause or Menopause Comfort. I know that is a little confusing but more info follows. The exception is during the summertime.

Some women, who are more hot than the usual population, require a colder (Chinese herbs for menopause) formula, Paramalin, to offset the excess internal heat produced in the liver.

 

“3000 Years of Chinese Herbal Medicine Provides the Best Menopause Formulation”

While not all women have to experience extreme characteristics of menopause, enough are disturbed that real relief is essential. The herbs, below, balance the hormones-progesterone & estrogen, cool nourish and stimulate the liver. This recovers the blood which aids all the body organs and enhances the body’s functioning. The herb composition balances and lessens the conditions mentioned above.

 These herbs work best for Menopause symptoms by reducing the typical heat signs stemming from the liver managing too much toxicity and/or excess food intake, blood congestion, etc.

1. Radix Angelica Sinensis

2. Bupleuri Radix

3. Radix Paeoniae Lactiflorae

4. Atractylodes Rhizoma – White

5. Gardeniae Fructus

6. Moutan Cortex

7. Zingiberis Rhizoma recens

8. Glycyrrhizae Radix

9. Menthae Haplocalycis Herba

 

Summary

The combination of traditional Chinese herbs synergistically improves all the conditions that are benefitted by the herbs singularly.

Would you like to locate these herbs enclosed in a established safe formula that remedies the menopausal condition in 2 hours? The formula has been combined to the right amount of each herb to optimize results for women.

IBS: What is it?

Dec 29

Posted by Dan in Uncategorized | No Comments

IBS is very common and in America at least 58 million have or had Irritable Bowel Syndrome at some stage in their lives. They complain of diarrhoea and/constipation and cramp like abdominal pains. These symptoms vary in individual Irritable Bowel Syndrome sufferers and also from day to day. President of the IBS Self Help and Support Group, Jeffrey Roberts, says, “IBS is an illness which seems to strike people down.”

 

IBS is a collection of symptoms that are present for 12 weeks in twelve month period. It is characterised by abdominal pain and must include at least two of the following three facts. The pain is relieved with bowel movement, and associated with a change in the frequency of bowel movement and appearance of the stools.

 

Certain foods and stress can trigger symptoms or cause a flare up of IBS. Experts are still uncertain as to what exactly IBS is or what causes it. What we knowat present is the Large Gut in IBS sufferers are more sensitive and, hormonal changes may be a trigger because 80% of IBS patients are women. There is higher incident in individuals who were physically or sexually abused as children and it can develop after a severe bout of gastroenteritis.

 

In IBS, there is no abnormality in the gut even though you have distressing symptoms such as abdominal pains, diarrhoea, constipation, bloating and rectal pain. If during investigation an abnormality is found, then the diagnosis in no longer IBS.

 

If you have symptoms of IBS, see your doctor for a diagnosis. Your family physician will do tests to exclude major ilness before a diagnosis of IBS is made. With the Rome Criteria, a diagnosis can be made with minimal diagnostic test. However, you should see your doctor very soon if you have bleeding from the rectum, loss of appetite, weight loss, anaemia or symptoms developing after fifty years of age because you will need addition investigation.

 

Some IBS sufferers think their illness is “All in the head.” This is far from the truth but the brain and symptom development are linked and there is a strong belief that Brain-Gut connection is very important. IBS and Serotonin are linked. High blood levels are present in Diarrhoea predominant IBS and low levels are found in Constipation predominant IBS.

 

In Irritable Bowel Syndrome, there is no abnormality in the large gut, it is not a cancer and will not lead to cancer or other gastrointestinal disease and it is very common. It is estimated that 20% of the global population has or had IBS at some time in their lives.

 

To come to terms with IBS is difficult for patients especially when experts tell them no one knows the true cause, no single medication works for everyone and that there is no cure. Depending on the type of IBS you have, dietary changes, stress management, behavioural therapy and an increasing range of alternative treatments options are available.

 

A few IBS patients are unfortunate to have severe abdominal pains soon after eating certain foods. This is often due to eating a large meal and in a sensitive gut triggers strong Gastro-colic reflex. This a powerful peristaltic contraction in response to stretching of the stomach. In IBS patients, this can be very painful. You can reduce this by having smaller meals and eat frequently. You need nutrients from food to remain healthy, so it is important that you do not avoid foods.

Stress is a trigger for IBS symptoms. Relieve stress and your IBS will improve.

Vimax Penis Enlargement Pills

Do you want to increase the size of your penis along with your sexual health and your sexual performance? If so then you are like just about every other man in the world.

There are a lot of less than reputable companies in the male enlargement industry who are trying to take advantage of this common desire for a larger penis. If a company advertises with E-mail spam then you know you should avoid it.

There is one brand in the penis enlargement market that you can definitely count on and that is Vimax. Vimax never advertised via EMail spam and they have an amazing 60 day 100% satisfaction guarantee.

You can actually buy Vimax at any time of the day, any day of the year and have it delivered right to your front door.

It’s natural to be concerned about the possibility of other people finding out you ordered Vimax pills. That’s certainly an understandable fear because no matter how widespread the desire for a larger penis is, it’s still embarrassing to be found out ordering something like this.

Alcohol abuse – How Can Alcohol Affect Your Health

Dec 29

Posted by Dan in Uncategorized | No Comments

alcohol

Alcohol affects us in a wide variety of ways and our social skills; After 1 or 2 drinks you may become more confident and more chatty as the alcohol reaches the brain and affects your cognitive abilities.
Alcohol causes your heart rate to heighten and you may experience a warm glow. This is caused by alcohol making the tiny blood vessels in the skin dilate, allowing blood to flow closer to the surface and lowers blood pressure.

Alcohol Effects -how can alcohol affect your health?

The dangers of drinking large amounts of alcohol can be terrible. Alcohol misuse effects include slowed breathing and heartbeat, loss of consciousness, impaired judgment leading to accidents and injuries, anxiety, suffocation through choking on your own vomit and potentially fatal alcohol poisoning. Drinking too much alcohol can also effect you mentally (generally temporarily), making you feel guilt or anger for no apparant reason and even making you paranoid. You slurr your words, often don’t recognise your surroundings and drinking too much alcohol can result in memory loss.

Drinking heavily also increases your calorie intake, showing why alcohol is a large part of adult obesity. There are 125 calories in a medium-sized (175ml) glass of wine and in a bottle there are over 500 calories. Thats approximately 1 quarter of the national guidline daily amount!

The morning after – hangover unpleasantries

Alcohol abuse might cause you to have a hangover the next morning, often being unpleasant to experience. You may get sickness, nausea stomach ache, and sometimes diarrhea, Alcohol consumption also has a dehydrating effect. Alcohol consumption can also make you feel depressed, guilty

.
Drinking more than the recommended levels often you are putting your health in damger. Consuming larger amounts of alcohol increases blood pressure.

Alcohol is often related with mental health problems. A recent British survey found that people enduring anxiety or depression were twice as likely to be heavy or problem drinkers.

Large levels of drinking can sometimes lead to ‘psychosis’, a serious mental illness where the person beleives others are plotting against them. Consuming large amounts of alcohol could lead to seclusion and dismay.

Why You Need a Home Sauna

Dec 29

Posted by Dan in Uncategorized | No Comments

Being able to achieve health improvements in the comfort of your home is a great advantage because we all lead busy lives.  Most of the time don’t have the flexibility to attend gyms, spas and saunas in order to keep healthy and fit. A home sauna is benefic for the body and mind for the following reasons:

•    Cleansing of your body by the sweat induced by the sauna heat gives you a clean and smooth skin.
•      The cleansing process occurs by inducing thirst and thus, cleansing the inside of your body as well;
•    It promotes weight loss because the body burns calories in the process of sweating and cleansing.

A saunas is great stress reliever and it is great to have it at home and use it in the home environment. By having a home sauna you save a lot of time that gets otherwise wasted.  You get more time to get yourself rejuvenated and refreshed thereby ensuring that you are fit enough for the next days’ hectic schedule.

In home saunas will be enjoyed by the entire family as well as friends. Often friends organize sauna evenings in order to relieve some stress and catch up with the latest news and gossip. The number of people that can be accommodated in your home sauna might vary between 2 to 6 people, depending on the size of the sauna. If the space allotted in your home for sauna is large you could accommodate more than 6 people. It is possible for you to purchase a sauna which is fully built; alternately you could build your own sauna depending on the money available, how much time you can spend on this project and how good are your carpentry skills.

Saunas can be dangerous for those that suffer from heart diseases, blood pressure problems, pregnant women or any other medication that causes drowsiness and therefore should always be accompanied when using it. Children can use home saunas only under the supervision of elders and should not activate it; otherwise it could be dangerous.

The door of your home sauna should always open outside so that it can be easily accessed from outside if required; do not provide any lock so that it does not get locked accidentally; provide an alarm for emergency.
