Time to get health conscious
Dr. Yasuy Moralla (who?s also a nutritionist, dietician, microbiologist and who?s also into homeopathy)
I learnt so many things from the nutraceuticals, which is a basic medical course summarized in two days. Dr. Yasuy?s a doctor who?s against synthetic medicines, surgery and hospitalization co?z she believes every sort of ailment can best be healed naturally.
Dr. Yasuy?s a UP graduate and they sometimes call her a radical because she deviates from all sorts of synthetic medicine and surgery.
She talk about natural healing, healing manifestations, proper nutrition and sanitation, sexuality, diseases, allergies, SARS, PMS, high blood ? nearly all kind of conditions.
The nutra actually changed my traditional perspective on health and nutrition, which is why I?d like to share them with you.
* If a child starts getting fed with too much fried chicken and fast foods at age 1, chances are, she?ll have irregular menstruation by age 12
* At 18 ? 20 years, there?s a large probability that she?ll have breast lumps.
* Fat is the perfect food or breeding ground for cyst formations.
* Pork increases the risk of getting breast cancer. WHY? Coz fat raises estrogen levels, which in turn increases the risk of cyst formation, which in turn can cause breast cancer.
* Don?t buy canned foods with even the slightest dent and rust. Spores can enter the tiny dents in the cans.
* There?s something called CI. Botulism poisoning, (which is fatal).
* It?s a kind of food poisoning in vacuum packed foods. Some bacteria are anaerobic ( i.e. they can live without oxygen).
Kids who eat too much breads, biscuits and starchy foods are more prone to diabetes and lung disease later in life, while those who favor junk foods are susceptible to allergies.
85% of the diseases are self limited, meaning, they all have a limit and will go naturally. There?s really no need for synthetic drugs. The immune system should always do its job. Too much synthetic drugs can make the immune system sluggish.
Fever is good because it is the body?s most natural form of defense. A raise in the body temperature can kill the toxemia or the virus. There?s no need to lower the fever with synthetic drugs sufficient, rest and natural foods and supplements will do.
Diseases are the result of long-term developing process which begins early in life and finally leads to saturations of toxins in the body.
Fiber consumes fat.
Antiperspirants can lead to breast cancer. That?s because the alums salts and other chemicals clog the pores in the armpits, thus suppressing sweat.
We like to be nice and dry in the armpits, but sweat actually contains traces of waste material. If we stop them from exiting our pores, they only clog up in the armpits. And these toxins eventually accumulate in the breast area ( where?s there is plenty of fat ) and they gradually form into cysts. Although the majority of those susceptible to breast cancer are women, 10% of men may also be prone to it.
Sky flakes and soda crackers are good pampalipas gutom because they are high in energy. But a whole can of crackers can be bad because it is also very high in sodium.
85% of processed oriental foods ( particularly Taiwanese ) are cancerous. A diet that is ?too Western? can lead to ulcers.
The essence of cancer: manufactures make bad food taste good.
* People who always feel sleepy after eating are those with inefficient digestive systems. That?s because it takes to much energy to digest the food.
To conserve energy, the body?s energy is therefore concentrated on the digestion, either this is the case or: foods such as pork, beef, chicken, ginisa and oily foods naturally makes one sleepy coz it takes too much energy to digest them. Steamed veggies and salad do not require too much energy. The most efficient pampagising foods are fruits, not coffee. Caffeine only gives a momentary kick of energy, but make us feel lethargic after a couple of hours. But fructose (from fruits) gives more energy and endurance.
* Any oil, when heated up, becomes bad cholesterol. That?s why it?s not such a good idea to deep-fry foods in olive oil, It?s just a waste. Better fry with corn or canola oil because of the lower boiling point compared to olive oil. But olive oil is very good when taken in its raw form. When eating fried fish, it is best to soak it first in balsamic vinegar with olive oil so that the polyunsaturated fats will get converted into monounsaturated fats. It?s ok to eat French Fries. But the fries should not be thawed when taken from the freezer. They should be cooked only for maximum 2 minutes. The fries should be crunchy on the outside but mealy on the inside.
On SARS: The countries which are hard hit by SARS are not only those with cool climates, but are also those with the highest consumption of antibiotics. A Synthetic drugs, especially antibiotics, eventually weakens one?s resistance to diseases. On SARS: The longer people wear masks, the more susceptible they are to SARS because they just accumulating the microbes on their masks. To be safe, they have to change their masks minimum of 3 times a day. But the best form of protection against SARS is simply a healthy lifestyle and strong immune system.
By the way, we need Vitamin C coz it?s the best immune system booster. But is should be natural Vitamin C. Synthetic Vitamin C?s usually take the form of 250-500 mg tablets. But at any given time, our body?s can absorb only 60 mg of Vitamin C?s at a time. Meaning to say, we should take them in small dosages. So what happens to the Synthetic Vitamin C?s? only 60 mg gets absorbed by the body. The rest gets stored in the kidneys as gallstones.
But we need also Vitamin C?s because humans, as well as fish are the only creatures that cannot make and store their own Vitamin C?s. That?s why we need the natural food supplements. Here?s another esoteric fact based on scientific studies: too much Vitamin C?s can damage the DNA
Most synthetic drugs are not ciliated, i.e. they do not absorbed by the body 100%. A large percentage still accumulates in the kidneys, which is why it?s not good to be dependent on medicine. In this case, one sickness leads to another. (Carl Linnaeus said, ?to live by the medicine is to live horribly.?) (Hippocrates said, ?Thy food shall be thy medicine.?) Which is why we simply have to eat well get well.
Vetsin is bad for the health. Though the source of MSG is sugar cane (which is very natural), chemicals are added while processing it. It contains sulfur and some benzoate etc? which become insoluble in the body. In short, they become toxins. Which is why MSG also causes bloating.
Commercial chicken is complete with steroids and antibiotics to make them fat and resistant to disease. Unfortunately, they don?t exactly do the same thing to the consumers.
Since fried chicken from the fast foods are breaded, they really fattening. That?s because starch, when cooked with fat, cannot be utilized by the body. They just get stored in the body.
If meat is rare or medium rare, the fats will enter the body as grease or in the liquid form. Small amounts of it can even be used as lubrication for the blood. But if meat is well done or over cooked, the fats just remain as plaques, which become the arteries worst enemies.
Some meat processing plants put estrogen patches on cows to make them nice and fat. Estrogen makes meat more tendered because it puts the meat and fat into short, alternate layers ( so that the meat feels tender and juicy when we bite into it.)
The human digestive system can only digest and absorb food that is broken down into simplest form. But the higher the temperature and pressure the food is subjected to, the more its chemical structure is altered. Therefore, the less digestible it?s become.
We love to put meat in the pressure cookers and cook the for 45 minutes or longer, particularly in nilagang baka. But prolonged cooking of meat makes it less digestible, no matter how soft it may become. The result? It becomes putrefied, dead matter in the intestine. They?re just as good as toxins. And since they don?t get digested, they just get stuck in the intestines.
That?s why we get constipated after eating too much meat. Ever wonder what the putrefied dead matter looks like? That?s the smelly, black spotted ebak.
Just imagine how many years we?ve cooking meat this way, and even more, what our 26-32 feet intestine may look like today!
The best way to cook meat is rare to medium rare. It?s still in its simple form that way, and therefore can become digested efficiently. Well done steaks only get toxic, putrefied dead matter in the intestines. But actually, the simplest and best form of food is in its raw form. But since bacteria love to live on meat, we have to raise its temperature, just enough to kill the bacteria.
So what happens to the putrefied matter in our intestines? Fatty acids in the stomach raise bile acids and enzymes that are necessary to digest meat. But too much of these acids can cause holes to form in the intestines and lining of the stomach. Since there?s nothing but toxin in our digestive system, our Villi (the short finger like projections that absorb nutrients from food) will also absorb the toxins till they reach the bloodstream. And since there?s nothing but toxin, the blood will also absorb it. Once these toxin reach the bloodstream allergies, skin rashes, asthma, arthritis, sinusitis hypertension and many more. This goes to show that many of our ailments are problems related to digestion.
By the way if there?s too much of putrefied dead matter in the intestines, we wont be able to absorb efficiently all the nutrients from food we eat. That?s why we have to cleanse and detoxify our system from time to time. And those with good metabolism (people who can eat a lot without getting fat) are also those with efficient digestive systems. That?s because they can quickly absorb the nutrients and release the energy. So not eating is not the solution to weight loss. According to Dr. Yasuy all we have to do is to make our digestive system perfect. So even we eat five times a day (as long as they are the right kinds of food ). We wont gain a single pound.
Not all overcooked foods become putrefied dead matter, meat become putrefied, in particular. Overcooked veggies may lose their vitamins and minerals, but they still provide us with plenty of fiber, which is very good for us. Improper eating, living and thinking habits are primary cause of degeneration. The same type of toxin, when localized in a joint will result into arthritis ( uric acid ).
When localized in liver: hepatitis or cirrhosis. In the kidneys: nephritis. In the pancreas: diabetes. In the brain: ( e.g. drugs, caffeine, nicotine and alcohol deplete B complex, which is essential for the brain. Drugs, alcohol, caffeine and nicotine raise monoamine oxidase. Which is the primary cause of depression.
Bee propolis (used by bees as a cement and caulking in making their hives.) is the most powerful antibiotic. Bee propolis is like their poo-poo. Actually beehives are much cleaner than most hospitals. That?s because of propolis, which is also a natural disinfectant. When rodents enter the beehive, they get stung to death. Since bees are small, they cannot push the rodent out so they just cover it with propolis. The rodent doesn?t decompose nor does it smell bad. Propolis inhibits bacterial and viral growth.
Want to check the purity of honey? If there are ants around the honey, it?s fake. Because no organisms can live in pure honey. And also dip a match in honey, and then strike it. If there?s a flame, then the honey is pure. If it doesn?t strike, it means that it contain water.
sorry po kung medjo mahaba complete info lang po, para sa mga intresado!!
