Using TCM To Restore Balance In Sufferers of IBS Symptoms

Posted on Jul 19, 2008 at 04:08 AM by Sandra Kim Leong | Comments (0)

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has also been used as an alternative method in treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Because TCM is a holistic approach, the method of treatment is aimed at restoring the balance in your body system. When you experience symptoms such as indigestion, diarrhea, constipation or other signs of IBS, it is indicative of an imbalance that needs to be corrected. There are several principles underlying TCM; including yin-yang, the Five Phases, the energy meridian, Zang Fu organ theory and several others. It is a complex study on a mind-body-spirit approach.

Posted on Jun 17, 2008 at 09:51 AM by Darlene loeffel | Comments (0)

There are many different benefits associated with blue light acne therapy. For individuals who have suffered through the "traditional" acne treatments with little to no success, this type of light therapy is considered to be a breakthrough and a safe alternative to all of those chemical based acne treatments out there that prove to provide little to no relief. It has been discovered in clinical settings that acne occurs as a result of a type of bacteria that is referred to as "P.acnes".

When blue light acne therapy is implemented, it gets right to the bacteria that are directly responsible for the onset of skin irritations, pimples, and boils that are commonly associated with acne. Unlike traditional acne treatments, this treatment does not work to simply control the symptoms of acne; it works to actually eliminate the overall cause of acne. This is the first benefit to this treatment choice. Continue reading "The Benefits of Blue Light Acne Therapy"

Are Herbal Supplements Safe?

Posted on Apr 9, 2008 at 04:52 AM by Teresita C. Tayanes | Comments (0)

Herbal supplements are herbs or plants added to the diet for heath purposes. Although they're not considered drugs or medicines, some herbal supplements work the same way as drugs and can have harmful as well as helpful effects.

Herbal supplements are not regulated the same way as drugs. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates herbal and other dietary supplements as foods, not as drugs. Meaning, they don't have to meet the same high standards as drugs for proof of safety, effectiveness, and quality.

The following are safety tips and precautions on how to take herbal supplements from Nursing 2004 Herbal Medicine Handbook (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2004) :

Posted on Mar 26, 2008 at 04:47 PM by Kristie Brown | Comments (0)

Women love to look beautiful. Make-up has been a staple of this practice and society for as long as living memory. Even the most uncivil societies on this planet use make-up in one form or another. Nail polish is but one example of how women attempt to add a bit of flair to their appearance. Nail polish, like other make-ups, can be harsh on the skin and the ways that we go about removing it can hurt the derma, or surface of the skin.

Nail polish remover is alcohol based and can, and usually does, hurt the fingernail. non-acetone based, nail polish remover wipes are a much safer option.

The alcohol base in commercial nail polish remover can dry out the nail causing it to turn white or crack. These removers also can cause damage to the cuticle of the finger leaving it red, agitated, and hurting. There is also a risk of one being allergic to the harsh astringent found in them.

Life-Saving Help To Do If You Have A Heart Attack

Posted on Mar 23, 2008 at 09:39 PM by Teresita C. Tayanes | Comments (0)

What should you do if you are alone and experiencing a sudden heart attack? The book "Natural Remedies Encyclopedia" has this suggestion that may save a life : "You can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously." Here's what the book tells us on how to do it :

" Take a deep breath before each cough. The cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing
sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds, without
letup, until help arrives or until the heart is beating normally again."

These deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs, and the coughing squeezes the heart and keeps the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims may be helped to survive the trip to the hospital.

A natural treatment for warts can also be used to help remove the unsightly appearance on the skin. Many older children get warts. It is the result of a viral infection affecting the outermost layer of skin or mucous membranes. The virus enters the body through a cut on the skin of the affected but may take up to any time between one and eight months to make its appearance. Warts manifest in the skin and can spread to other parts of the body. They tend to spread as they are scratched or rubbed.

Warts may not go away so easily. Sometimes, they reappear after treatment. However, do not worry; most warts are not infectious or harmful. The only exception is genital warts, which are sexually transmittable.

The Different Types Of Detox Diets

Detox diets come in many forms, and some of them include the following:

Master Cleanse Detox Diet

The Master Cleanse diet is a combination of maple syrup, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper mixed in water. This is a gentler detox diet than a water-only fast. The energy in maple syrup is easily absorbed, which regulates the release of toxins as stored fat is converted to energy more slowly. This diet does not produce the healing crisis usually associated with water fasts, and you can continue doing your normal programme of activities.

Digestive diseases have been linked to the accumulation of fecal matter in the colon. Inadequate fiber intake is often cited as the reason for incomplete evacuation of feces during bowel movements. Over time a certain quantity of such matter will latch on to the walls of the intestines. At the same time, claims that more than 20 to 40 pounds of feces may be found in the colon at any one time appear to be mostly exaggerated. A more realistic number may be one to perhaps three pounds, depending on your height and weight.

Acupuncture For Detoxification

Acupuncture for detoxification is one of the most beneficial uses of this major component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The principle of acupuncture, as with the rest of TCM, lies on the balance of Qi (chi), the vital energy that nourishes and harmonises the functions of the body.

It is helpful to look at the original purpose for which acupuncture was developed. The ancient Chinese physicians believed that "A superior healer is one who treats a disease before it shows symptoms, while an inferior one treats a disease only after it has manifested pain or discomfort," (Inner Classic of the Yellow Emperor, 100 B.C.). The ancients well knew that prevention was more valuable than the treatment of a disease. It is thus easy to understand why you can use acupuncture for detoxification.

In Feb. of this year, they also report that the number of students enrolled in massage school has decreased. While this can be due to many reasons, I want to address one that I have recently come across online.

Most massage schools websites are so poorly created that when anyone searches for the words "massage school, some city" that the top listings are not any schools themselves but are the listings of many different directories that are charging massage schools for listings. The actual websites for the massage schools are lost on the web. Massage schools are being held hostage by the many online school directories and link farms.

Cleanse Your Body With Herbal Teas During Winter

Posted on Nov 29, 2007 at 07:36 PM by Sandra Kim Leong | Comments (0)

The winter season can be rather cold. Staying indoors is your best bet in beating the chills and keeping yourself away from the harsh winds and catching a cold. Drinking warm herbal teas during the day or evening, while you are indoors, provides both warmth and comfort. Additionally, herbal teas can also help you cleanse your body.

When you cleanse your body, you are really hoping to remove toxicity in your organs of elimination such as the skin, kidneys, liver, lungs and bowel. This is an important step for overall health, as high toxicity can be stressful on your body. If you do not cleanse your body every once in a while, you may end up with a weak immune system, chronic exhaustion and symptoms indicating poor health.

How To Overcome Seasonal Allergies

Posted on Nov 17, 2007 at 12:40 AM by Evelyn Lim | Comments (0)

Some of us do not look forward to the upcoming season as we know that this is the period where we get allergy attacks the most often. While the end of the year is often associated with the holiday season for others, those of us with allergy symptoms can feel really down. We should, therefore, take our seasonal allergies seriously so that they affect our quality of life as little as possible.

Allergy sufferers get the most symptoms during fall and spring time. In the fall in North America, ragweed blooms from mid August until a hard freeze, usually in November. Fall also brings mold spores because of rotting leaves and plants. There are also trees and plants that pollinate in the fall. Finally, if you have allergies to dust mites, you may find yourself experiencing more symptoms in the fall when the house is closed and the exposure to dust increases. Spring allergies can result from the many pollinating plants and the mold produced with the spring thaw.

Heal Thyself With Homeopathy

Posted on Nov 11, 2007 at 10:29 AM by | Comments (0)

Good morning,

After five or six weeks I was coming along fine. The Bach Flower Remedies were helping me eliminate my fears and anxieties.

My little trailer in the mountains with its clean air and water was working miracles with my overall health and mental outlook.

Isn't it interesting that at the turn of the century, before the AMA, doctors would send people to the mountains and/or the seashore to recover their health. No poison chemical formulas or knives.

I was still strongly adhering to my organic diet. But sometimes the habits of 55 years would take hold of me and I would indulge myself with food that I knew was not the best for my health.

I was using my Schussler Cell Salts daily for maintenance and prevention.

Now, since I decided that I would take no more drugs in my life, not even aspirin, I needed to find a product that would replace them.

I

Good morning,

I will continue telling you about my quest for better health.

I read once that "... you are what you eat ... "Looking back now I can see that it applies not only to what you eat physically. It applies to what you eat mentally (books you read). It applies to what you eat emotionally (movies, art, TV and relationships).It applies to what you eat spiritually (your religious beliefs).

Fifteen years ago, when I first started my quest for better health I made major decisions and changes in what I ate.

Primarily I was concerned with the three major building blocks of good health. FOOD - AIR - WATER.

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES

I really dug into my studies on the net. My health is very important to me. I really enjoy living in this wonderful creation of God's.

Nature is wonderful, beautiful and mysterious. Science through the Laws of Quantum Physics is now opening it's secret doors.

I enjoy reading, writing studying. I now added self-healing to my list.

In case you are wondering how I sustained myself through this dark period ... I sold books on and off the net. I had an extensive library and although it hurt to sell them I needed the money. Now after 15 years I have managed to replace most of them.

After several weeks of intensive study I knew where I had to start to protect and regenerate my health. MY EMOTIONS. I was full of fear, apprehension, anger and self pity.
