EBIs the art and practice of realigning, balancing, and re-attuning the body.
Everything in creation is energy, and we, as energy, relate to it harmoniously or inharmoniously depending upon the degree to which we are in a balanced state of harmony within ourselves.
Chun Do Sun Bup is a 6,000-year-old healing Art whose principle is that energy shortage or disruption is the cause of all diseases and pain.
Bring about 1 cup of water to a boil. Add about a half-teaspoon cayenne pepper (or less if sensitive to spice) to the water. Continue to boil for several minutes, then remove from heat. Add about 2 tsp. honey and the juice of 1/2 a lemon (about 2 tsp.) Stir well, and drink when at a tolerable temperature. 4 cups a day is suggested.
Recipe 2: Apple Cider Vinegar Gargle
Mix water and apple cider vinegar at a ratio of 1 tsp. vinegar to 2 Tbs. water. Gargle every hour, swallowing afterward.
Recipe 3: Salt Water Gargle
Mix 1/2 to 1 tsp. salt in a glass of warm water. Gargle every couple hours, spitting out when finished.
Recipe 4: Make Your Own Tea or Gargle!
Honey, lemon, apple cider vinegar, and cayenne pepper are all very effective in soothing and curing sore throats. You can try your own proportions in a tea or gargle and see what works best for you! Below is a summary of the helpful characters of each of these ingredients.
Honey: Coats the throat, causing a soothing effect and nice taste in teas.
A type of treatment in which body tissue is exposed to high temperatures to damage and kill cancer cells, or in the case of conventional therapy, to make cancer cells more sensitive to the effects of radiation and certain anticancer drugs.
Local hyperthermia treatment (heat applied to a very small area, such as a tumor) is a well-established cancer treatment method with a simple basic principle: If a rise in temperature to 106÷F can be obtained for one hour within a cancer tumor, the cancer cells will be destroyed. The area may be heated externally with high-frequency waves aimed at a tumor from a device outside the body.
Ultrasound is more easily focused than other energy modalities, and can be applied to tumors located from the skin to 8 centimeters (approx. 3 in.) within the body.
This allows the treatment of tumors unreachable by other external modalities.
Whole-body heating is used to treat metastatic cancer that has spread throughout the body. It can be accomplished using warm-water blankets, hot wax, inductive coils (like those in electric blankets), or thermal chambers (similar to large incubators).
Plaque is made up of invisible masses of harmful germs that live in the mouth and stick to the teeth.
Some types of plaque cause tooth decay
Other types of plaque cause gum disease
bleeding gums can be the first signs of gum disease.
If gum disease is not treated, the tissues holding the teeth in place are destroyed and the teeth are eventually lost.
Dental plaque is difficult to see unless it’s stained.
You can stain plaque by chewing red “disclosing tablets,” found at grocery stores and drug stores, or by using a cotton swab to smear green food coloring on your teeth.
The red or green color left on the teeth will show you where there is still plaque—and where you have to brush again to remove it.
Parsley contains a high concentration of vitamin C, iron and is a good source of manganese. It also contains calcium and is a great source of potassium.
The benefits these vitamins and minerals have on your skin is well know.
Vitamin C is a powerful anti-oxidant and in conjunction with protein, is necessary for the production of collagen - the glue that holds us and our skin together and circumvents sags or wrinkles.
It regulates sebaceous glands to keep skin from drying out; helps prevent facial lines, wrinkles and spider veins.
The use of Parsley is not restricted to culinary applications. Sure, parsley is a common ingredient in sauces, soups, rissoles, mince and salads, etc., however, parsley also has medicinal applications.
Herbalists may choose to use parsley in their treatment approach to dysmenorrhoea, amenorrhoea, as a diuretic, anti-flatulent and/or to stimulate appetite.
Other constituents found in Parsley The essential oil comprising apiol, apiolin, myristicin, pinene. In addition to the ingredients listed earlier, parsley also contains flavonoids, a glucoside, apiin, and pro-vitamin A.
Mint can help get rid of nausua, motionsickness! I think mint calms the stomach, and so does ginger, and black licorice.
My favorite natural mint tea is actually made by a brand that you can probably find in most grocery stores that carry a lot of teas.
It’s by Traditional Medicinal, a brand that has branched out beyond it’s typical natural foods store markets.
It’s organically grown and the only ingredient in it is all natural mint leaves, which is ideal to help soothe an upset or sour stomach and help aid the digestion process.
Mint also is a green leaf food, which means it contains chlorophyll, another excellent nutrient that helps feed and nourish the body’s cells, although since it is a tea and it’s heated the effects of the chlorophyll may be diminished.
Dr Chris Steele discusses with Sian Welby the common but poorly understood condition of Bacterial Vaginosis (caused by an imbalance of "good" and "bad" bacteria in the vagina).
A new treatment for this condition, Balance Activ, is also explained.
The virus is an influenza A virus, carrying the designation H1N1 and is spreading from person to person.
It contains DNA from avian, swine and human viruses, including elements from European and Asian swine viruses, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease .
Virus samples have been sent to laboratories in Canada for testing, they said.
The government also decided to close all schools in Mexico City and the center of the country to avoid spreading of the virus.
The World Health Organization, which has identified swine influenza as a potential source of a human flu pandemic, has also activated its global epidemic operations center.
Allergic reactions to foods are an important medical problem throughout the industrialized world. The occurrence of food allergy appears to be strongly influenced by genetics, but the basis of the genetic predisposition to food allergy has not been differentiated from that for atopy in general.
In addition, genetic susceptibility alone does not explain the prevalence of food allergy satisfactorily, leaving ample room to consider the importance of environmental influences (external, maternal, and gastrointestinal environment) and interactions between the host and the environment.
Several features of food allergy are highlighted in this review: 1) patients with severe food allergies are overwhelmingly atopic, but food allergy occurs only in approximately 10% of patients with other atopic diseases; 2) most patients are clinically reactive to a single food, and although a substantial minority have multiple food allergies, the variety of bonefide food allergies in a given individual is limited; 3) foods contain multiple proteins whereas only a small subset are allergenic; 4) there is likely an important contribution of the environment, becoming manifest in genetically susceptible individuals.
For many of us the day does not begin until we have enjoyed our first cup of coffee.
We know it helps increase our energy and alertness, but there is increasing scientific evidence to show that coffee may also help provide significant protection against the development of liver disease.
In this post we'll try to show how coffee drinking specifically could be protective against: Cirrhosis of the liver (a disease causing progressive damage and scarring of the liver tissue and function)
Gallbladder disease - by reducing the risk of gallstone formation.
An increase of liver enzyme activity. A high liver enzyme activity is a recognised indicator that there has been deterioration in the functioning of liver cells and possible development of disease in the liver.
More recent studies confirmed the findings that it is specifically coffee, but not other beverages containing caffeine, that may be the key factor in inhibiting the onset of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver.
In another large study, results showed that men who regularly drank two to three cups of coffee per day – filtered, instant or espresso - had about a 30-40% reduction in risk of gallstone disease.
For men who drank four cups per day, the reduction was even more significant – the risk was cut in half.
Other study results have demonstrated a similar positive effect in women.
We cannot live without a functioning liver – so here is some good news – that cup of coffee we all enjoy is not bad for us at all.
In moderation, drinking coffee not only helps increase our energy and alertness but may also be helping to keep our liver healthy.
Currently, the only safe way to activate brown fat is to stay cold , however, the only safe way to activate brown fat is to remain cold enough to be on the verge of shivering… for a long period of time.
This recreates the scenario that led to the evolution of brown fat: life-threatening cold in creatures that couldn’t put on clothes to stay warm.
It’s important to maintain a proper balance of brown fat in the body.
If you’re carrying too much or too little weight, not only are the calorie-burning benefits mostly negated, but you become more vulnerable to diseases such as Type 2 diabetes.
Generally, a lean form is most ideal to maintain the body’s energy balance, yet according to Brown, it is unclear whether brown fat is the cause of leanness or its result.
food poisoning is caused by consuming food contaminated with pathogenic bacteria, toxins, viruses, prions or parasites.
Such contamination usually arises from improper handling, preparation or storage of food.
Food borne illness can also be caused by adding pesticides or medicines to food, or consuming or by accidentally consuming naturally poisonous substances like poisonous mushrooms or reef fish.
Contact between food and pests, especially flies, rodents and cockroaches, is a further cause of contamination of food.
Eczema is a term used for a group of skin conditions having several things in common: dryness, itching, inflammation and thickening of skin, and recurrence.
What Causes It? Nobody knows exactly why some people are affected by these rashes and others with the same exposure aren’t.
Those with atopic dermatitis often have non-skin allergies (like hay fever and asthma) but their rashes aren’t caused by skin allergies.
On the other hand, those with contact dermatitis do have true skin allergies, but usually not other allergic problems like someone with atopic dermatitis.
Contact dermatitis occurs at all ages, whereas atopic dermatitis is most often a problem in kids. Hand dermatitis is caused by skin irritants such as detergents or chemicals.
Dry (chapped) skin occurs because of lack of water in the stratum corneum (see diagram).
If your skin surface doesn’t have enough oil, there’s more evaporation of water which contributes to the dryness.
