These conditions always manifest in patients who have chronic inflammatory conditions and poor digestion. The inflammatory process creates dampness as a buffer to protect vital organs and tissues from damage. Once the immune system has stabilized the inflammatory condition, the waste materials and fluids produced during the inflammatory process need to be eliminated to keep the body from becoming a sewer. When fluids are not metabolized properly, heat from the body congeals the stagnant fluids into mucus states that make the perfect environment for parasitic colonization.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal; "><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Whenever inflammation occurs, the sympathetic nervous system must engage to counteract the inflammation. When the immune system triggers the sympathetic or fight-or-flight nervous state, the parasympathetic nervous system, which influences digestion, disengages. Digestion slows its production so that most or all of the body's energy resources can be diverted to the sympathetic response. The extent to which digestive function diminishes depends on the severity and duration of the sympathetic response. In chronic inflammatory conditions, poor digestion becomes part of the disease process. Both lead to immune deficiency states.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal; "><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The immune system has a mechanism for dealing with the kind of internal milieu that fosters an infestation and over-growth of yeast and parasites. It relies on the digestive functions of the body to transform damp conditions. The organ system that transforms both damp accumulation and noxious substances (such as yeasts and parasites) from a substantive state into metabolic waste for elimination is the pancreas.</span></span><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">When digestion is weak and sluggish, yeasts and parasites are allowed to proliferate and create chronic allergic or auto-immune states. The chronic inflammatory condition creates more dampness which digestion must then eliminate. Yet the chronic inflammatory condition requires sustained sympathetic action, which further diminishes the productive capability of the digestive system. The more sympathetic you are (inflammation, stressed), the less parasympathetic you have (digestion, normal). This creates and perpetuates a cycle of cause/effect with sympathetic dominance and parasympathetic weakness. The greater the differential between the two, the harder it becomes to restore health.p</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal; "><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The best way to solve problems with yeast and/or parasites is through individualized care, taking into account your personal health history of all the contributing factors and patterns of disease associated with this immune problem. Holistic physicians can recommend homeopathic and Chinese herbal medicines specifically for parasites and yeasts. You don't have to be diagnosed with parasites and/or yeast, however, to improve the conditions that foster that growth. Digestion is an important immune regulating function of the body's defensive system. It performs vital house-keeping functions to keep the internal environment from becoming a haven for parasites and other opportunistic pathology-creating organisms. When you improve digestion you improve immunity.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal; "><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Holistic Medicine provides the proper framework for restoring vitality and health to the digestive system so that the damp conditions ripe for parasites and yeast can be dredged and drained. Supporting the pancreas and stimulating lymphatic drainage are two key components of the yeast/parasite removal process. Damp resolving and qi supplementing herbs are commonly used in Chinese Medicine to improve digestion and immunity. Immune regulating herbs provide allergy relief as well as nutritional support for the organs that become weak in immune deficiency syndromes.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal; "><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000000;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">I find the following remedies to be very helpful when rectifying health problems related to yeast/parasite infestation.

Symptoms of "damp heat" will manifest in the renal system (the bladder, kidneys and reproductive organs) and these symptoms are often mistaken as infections. The Chien Chin works like an antibiotic to resolve the "yeast" and it supports the functions of these organs.

It is not recommended for food allergies. It is not clear why this therapy does not work with foods. This might suggest that perhaps injecting attenuated food substances trigger more severe allergic reactions. It is said that allergy immunotherapy works like a vaccine and allergy shots are often referred to as vaccine. The immunologic basis for this form of treatment, however, is actually unknown. The theory is that both allergy immunotherapy and vaccinations manipulate the immune system into creating some type of immunity or resistance to the allergens and pathogens. The literature says that allergy shots must stop after 3 to 5 years and at that time the doctor has to decide whether to continue them or not. That would suggest that the cumulative effect of getting allergy shots compromises immune function in some way or has other side effects.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Allergens injected subcutaneously under the skin unleashes histamine or other mediating chemicals. The immunological reaction is similar to the allergic reaction a person has to the allergen in the environment. In other words, the immune system is allowed to behave the same way it does when the substances are encountered in the environment. This means that the mechanism INCLUDES both the normal cellular reactions and the complex non-specific reactions that happen under NORMAL circumstances of exposure. Allergy shots contain a non-toxic water-like base along with the allergen (which is not a virus or bacteria). Allergens cause allergic reactions (sometimes death, as in stings, etc.) but rarely morbidity. This is because the injection is subcutaneous, not into the bloodstream. A subcutaneous injection or oral medicine triggers normal immunological reactions. This permits completion of the complex process involved to create real immunity, and it allows the immune system to modulate appropriately. The substances are not driven into the bloodstream or deeper tissues of the body where vital organs could be affected.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Vaccines, on the other hand, are infection by injection – they are injected into the deeper tissues and bloodstream. Vaccines BYPASS the normal cellular reaction system and the complex communication process between the cellular immune system and the non-specific immune system. Life-long immunity can ONLY be conferred when the immune system deals with infection naturally (as in getting it from the natural environment). The immunity conferred with vaccines is only temporary, never life-long. Vaccines include both DISEASE-CAUSING viral or bacterial substances AND are loaded up with toxic chemicals and pharmaceutical medicines. These adjuvants are included because the immune response behaves quite differently with infection by injection and the adjuvants are needed to stimulate an immune reaction. Vaccines ALWAYS create morbidity – however, and except in the case of massive allergic reaction which is immediate, the signs/symptoms of vaccine reactions are often delayed due to the way non-specific immunity works.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Both allergy shots and vaccines have risks for allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis. The risk is higher and more common with vaccines (for obvious reasons). Sublingual allergy immunotherapy has less risk for this kind of allergic reaction because the substances are not injected subcutaneously or into the bloodstream. When chronic allergies become debilitating or life threatening and suppressing the inflammatory response with antihistamines and/or steroidal drugs does not improve the individual’s health, the conventional approach is to identify the specific allergens so that they may be eliminated from the individual’s diet and/or environment or, as in the case of allergy immunotherapy, try to create immunity to the specific allergens. Allergy immunotherapy is successful for many people and is an efficacious way to deal with a very debilitating problem. Often, however, the therapy only lessens the severity of the allergy response and creates other side effects (headaches, skin conditions, additional allergies). If the allergy immunotherapy is only partially successful, then it is not curative and the health of the individual is still compromised and in a weak state.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">The question should not be “What is a person allergic to?” but “Why does the person have allergies at all?” The real problem is not this or that allergen but the health of the individual and his/her ability to resist ANY disease process or infection. Neither vaccination or allergy immunotherapy addresses the underlying organ weaknesses and immune system problems that make the person susceptible to infections and allergic reactions. It is well known that repeated vaccination compromises immune function and weakens the health of the individual. What are the limits to such an approach?</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "></p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; text-align: justify; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Are there ways to improve health so that a person is not hypersensitive and susceptible to infection? Yes. For chronic immune deficiency states (repeated infections, severe allergies), consult with an experienced holistic physician who can diagnose and treat the underlying causes and patterns that are specific for you. For mild allergies begin improving your health today by making holistic healthcare a lifestyle choice. Chinese Medicine and Homeopathy provide life-promoting nutritional medicines that improve the health and vitality so that you can become more resistant to infection and less hypersensitive to the natural environment. There are many effective over the counter Chinese medicines and clinical homeopathic remedies that safely relieve allergy symptoms while improving overall health.</span></p><p style="margin-top: 0px;

the virus is unlike any of the flu viruses identified in 2008 and 2009 and the current flu vaccines do not protect against this virus.</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span"

The Winter Tonic homeopathic remedy is an excellent flu prevention tool that can also be used to quickly relieve symptoms associated with any viral infection. This remedy consists of the nosodes of every flu virus and flu vaccine from 1918 to the present. The Winter Tonic remedy prepares the immune system for any such infection and also improves the response time of the fighting power required when dealing with actual infection.</span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><br /></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Winter Tonic is a very useful flu prevention and treatment remedy to have on hand.

Unless the organ is so diseased that removal is necessary, it is better to nurse sick and dysfunctional organs back to health because all body parts are there “for a reason”. While modern medicine has decided that we can live without certain “disposable” body parts (such as gallbladders, appendix, tonsils, uterus), the truth is that these “removable” organs play very important roles in the non-specific immunity of the individual. I find that patients are ALWAYS at risk of developing serious immune disorders (including cancers) when they no longer have these vital organs (of course, it is better that these organs BE vital and not diseased).</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family:arial;font-size:13px;"><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Gallbladder removal DOES have side effects … a common side effect being pancreatitis … (also weight gain). The gallbladder and pancreas work together in non-specific immunity – when you lose the gallbladder, the work-load for the pancreas becomes greater – thus it become diseased, too. Pancreatic disease is VERY serious – a healthy pancreas keeps cancer cells away. The body is an amazing machine – many people CAN and do live without their gallbladders because -- as with all traumas and diseases -- the body is always adapting and “doing with” what it has in order to keep the life alive. However, “doing without” is not without health consequences … it is better to re-create a healthy functioning gallbladder than it is to remove it.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Gallbladder problems has more to do with underlying conditions such as poor digestion, persistent viral infection, toxicity in the gut, hyperplasia of the bile or pancreatic ducts or liver disease. It is always best to get a full evaluation of what the underlying conditions are, but it is also easy enough to improve digestion (including gallbladder function) with healing/correcting Chinese herbs. Improving digestion does not necessarily require a full examination or doctor’s prescription. EVERYONE can benefit from flushing the gallbladder, stimulating pancreatic function and cleansing the bowels … and chances are that most diseases would begin to heal if digestion were improved and those digestive organs (liver, gallbladder, stomach, pancreas) were made healthier.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">To improve digestive function and resolve gallbladder congestion, I suggest the following protocol (2 and 3 are available on www.e-holistichealth.com and 1 is available by calling (904) 821-9535) :</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">1. Pancreatrophin – this is a Standard Process glandular food supplement provides the pancreas with the special nutrition it needs to heal itself so that it can produce more pancreatic enzymes (so important in digestion and immunity). </span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">2. Lidan Tablets – this is a classic Chinese herbal formula designed to dissolve congestion (including stones) in the gallbladder and hyperplasia of the bile duct. </span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">3. Gastroquell – this is a modern Chinese herbal formula (based on a classic formula) designed to improve all aspects of the digestive function, and especially useful for gastric pain.</span></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">There are many good tools for treating gallbladder problems and it is possible that there are other underlying issues that should be addressed as well. This protocol has been very effective for many people who suffered from frequent gallbladder attacks.</span></span></p></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1702568436847862764.post-82405828392994580102009-03-11T10:51:00.004-04:002009-08-20T14:57:36.533-04:00FAQ's- Homeopathy<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vkg15sTD2pQ/SbfRURP08iI/AAAAAAAAAME/EQNqDwAn1NY/s1600-h/nuxvomica.jpg"><img style="display:block;

A pattern of disease begins as a functional problem with few signs/symptoms of physical illness. As long as the vitality is strong and the immune system works properly, the body heals itself. Persistent conditions, recurring infections, pain and chronic fatigue -- these are all signs that the vitality is low, the borders are weak, and the housekeeper is unable to keep up with the non-specific immune function of keeping the body pure.</span></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; "><span style="color: rgb(17, 17, 17); "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">Good health requires a strong immune response to ALL diseases and disease processes.

All substances consumed, absorbed, injected and accumulating in tissues must be properly "digested" and "transformed" from its substantive and noxious state. Any substance that is not nutritious for the body is toxic to the body. If not properly processed and eliminated, unusable and toxic materials will become trapped in the body and cause disease. The same organ systems and body functions that produce and manage the digestion of foods also provide the means and materials for the housekeeping tasks of the immune system. Poor digestion and elimination is an indication of weak immune function (and vice versa). When digestion is good, immune function is strong. To promote immune function, promote proper digestion.

The creative process of healing is primarily a housekeeping function since it is the toxic accumulation of metabolic wastes, viruses, bacteria, parasites, and undigested foods that obstructs the free "flow of qi" (the life force) and which causes a disease process to begin. The first step in reversing a disease process is to detoxify the blood, lymph, tissues and organs of the body of impurities and disease-causing substances. The progression from disease back to health involves driving disease out of the body ... it is a cleansing process. This is the job of the non-specific immune response system (the Housekeeper). This important task requires the proper and efficient functioning of the body's lymphatic, digestive, eliminative and circulatory systems. For any medical intervention to succeed in restoring the health of the individual, the treatment must include proper detoxification and drainage protocols. This is the fourth fundamental premise upon which holistic medicine is based.</span></span></span><br /></div></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1702568436847862764.post-51212077348823461062009-02-12T12:13:00.003-05:002009-08-20T15:19:48.442-04:00The MEANS to GOOD HEALTH....SUPPORT a HEALTH IMMUNE SYSTEM<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vkg15sTD2pQ/SZRY--iIg1I/AAAAAAAAAII/NnZv_qQ3jfY/s1600-h/hokusai_wave_1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 134px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_vkg15sTD2pQ/SZRY--iIg1I/AAAAAAAAAII/NnZv_qQ3jfY/s200/hokusai_wave_1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5301960500283212626" /></a><br /><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Good Health: Border Control + Good Housekeeping </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; font-family:Georgia;"><b><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">= <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia; font-size: 16px; font-weight: normal; "><b><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">A Strong Immune System.</span></span></span></b><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></b></span></span></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><b><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-weight: normal; font-family:Georgia;"><span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Every life comes with a basic program and instructions for protecting and healing itself. Border Control is the unique life force at the border (in the skin and mucosal membranes) that protects the body from attack by external causes of disease (infections). The cell-mediated immune response (our Border Control) is the means by which the body protects itself from outside intruders. Good Housekeeping is the sophisticated programming and complex biomechanics that provides the means to eliminate the destructive forces of chronic and debilitating internal disease processes. The non-specific immune response (our Housekeeper) is the means by which the body reverses a disease process and heals itself. We are as immune from external causes of disease (infections) as we are strong at our borders. We are as immune from internal causes of disease (chronic inflammation, degeneration and emotional stress) as we are efficient at keeping the house clean and in working order.

To prosper and stay well, you must "have it" and you must be "able to use it". You must have core vitality and you must be able to use this vital energy in order to sustain life, create new cells, resist infection, heal trauma and reverse all disease processes. Vitality determines the amount of power you have to be what you want to be. The more you nurture this core strength, the more "life" you will have. The stronger the life force, the healthier you will be. To prevent infection ... and to prevent an internal disease process from destroying your health ... nurture a body that is pure and abundantly vital. The body's health is only as good as the body is vital. This vitality fuels all the metabolic processes required to sustain good health and to become healthy again after illness or trauma. The battle to survive when threatened by disease depends on the strength of the life force ... the body's vital force must be stronger than the destructive force of a pathogen or toxic substance. If you have a weak life force, your body cannot adequately perform its duties. Promote the life force (engender vitality) and you promote health.

Whether your illness is acute, virulent, or persistent, there are appropriate herbal and homeopathic solutions for any stage of illness. When Chinese herbs and homeopathic remedies are used preventively to improve resistance to ALL disease, your immune response to an acute infection will be stronger than the force of the invading pathogen. The illness will then be quickly and efficiently resolved "at the border" with minimal damage to internal tissues and with minimal loss of vitality.</span></span></span></div></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1702568436847862764.post-28542179103537401722009-02-11T15:06:00.007-05:002009-08-20T15:26:25.266-04:00What can I do to keep from getting an infection?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vkg15sTD2pQ/SZMyvF_tKEI/AAAAAAAAAGo/CkwSTBWYV34/s1600-h/00075191.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 134px; height: 200px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_vkg15sTD2pQ/SZMyvF_tKEI/AAAAAAAAAGo/CkwSTBWYV34/s200/00075191.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5301636970989824066" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;"><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-align: justify;line-height:normal"><span style="color: rgb(17, 17, 17); "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">T</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;">o prevent infection, nurture a body that is "resistant to disease".

Within the borders that protect your sacred body (the skin and mucosal membranes), the sacred inside space is where the life force sustains and recreates your life everyday. All bodily functions and every organ system work constantly and cooperatively to keep the vital organs, tissues and fluids within the protective borders pure and free from contamination. A pure environment (a clean house) is the most important and basic requirement for good health. Keeping the "internal milieu" pure from toxins and foreign substances is the first fundamental premise upon which holistic medicine is based.</span><br /></div></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
