Iron rules of health - 4

[Guest guest]

In Ayurveda, Vaidyas say that 60% of visiting patients belong to

Vatic disorders, 40% to pittic disorders, and only 20% to Kaphaa

disorders. In last three posts we saw how cellular toxemia in kidney,

liver and blood can lead to various diseases. If we combine these two

facts, we can easily see that toxemia has maximum influence on

central nervous system cells and those belonging to endochrine

glands, since they control so many functions. Perhaps this is the

reason we see diabetes epidemic, depression patients, women suffering

from hormone imbalances, children suffering from ADHD, autism, early

puberty, tennager obesity etc. Recall various posts connecting autism

and mercury poisoning. In the present post, author will give skeleton

outline of roadmap to health and take up the treatment techniques in

later posts.

 

Amongst various ways to clean up the cellular toxemia, the first is

bowel elimination. The bowels are a major elimination system that

protects the liver and cells from toxic contamination. Most people

are constipated because they're eating fiberless, colon clogging food

that is causing congestion to the ten meter long alimentary canal

which eventually leads to putrefied proteins, rancid fats and

fermented carbs. Nearest ayurvedic term is AMA. When they mix

together, you get cancer-causing agents of nitrates, sulfates,

purines, and peroxide free radicals and hydroxyl free radicals which

will enter into the blood through the portal vein. You have to

implement measures of colon cleansing to detoxify the body. While

internet has a number of colon cleansing products, ayurveda and

naturopathy prefer simple fasting and virechana techniques through

laxative powders, oils and panchkarma procedures. Some detox programs

are already covered on ayurveda archieves. The details of the

colon cleanse need to be worked out by Vaidya, the presence of

parasites being a major deciding factor.

 

One should cleanse the liver, kidneys and lymphatic system because

they are the body's filtration organs. If the liver is clogged up,

the toxins switch to the kidneys. When the kidneys do not function

well, toxins are eliminated through the skin, which is the second

kidney. Rashes are really caused by a clogging of the colon, liver

and kidneys. Seven layers of the dermis and the epidermis get clogged

by the toxic sludge trying to come out through the skin pores through

sweat. Most people have trouble with perspiration, especially women.

The usual menstrual route available to eliminate the mala of rakta

dhatu, alternates to sweating (night sweats) after menses reduce due

to peri-menopause.

 

Though many Vaidyas prefer to cleanse liver after kidney is

cleansed, author prefers a combined liver and kidney cleanse. By

combining certain yogasanas and exercise, this doubles up as

lymphatic system cleanse. Use of Rakta shodhak herbs after the

cleanse reduces the pitta (interpret as blood impurities) Thus blood

cleanse improves muscle and skin tone too as the quality of the flesh

is in the blood. Flesh is next dhatu resulting from blood itself.

 

Herbs such as Anantmul, Punarnava, Kalmegh, Nasotar, Bhumiamalki,

Kadu, Chirait come to the mind as Rakta shodhkas for cleanse. Total

thirtytwo herbs become candidates. Westerners can use Milk thistle

for the liver and uva ursa for the kidneys. But views of western

vaidyas are most welcome. Pure fresh watermelon/cucumber/grape/lemon

or cranberry juice without adding sugar is great for the kidneys.

Fresh vegetable juices that have live enzyme and high chlorophyll

content along with thousands of phytonutrients cannot be matched in a

chemistry lab Fresh juice washes through the kidneys and liver

because the digestive enzymes are intact and there's no digestion

needed because the juicer just did the digestive tract's job. The

major contribution of juices in restoring blood alkalinity gives a

blood cleanse also.

 

The next detox technique is respiration, which is simply breathing

properly. Deep breathing and regular exercise will increase blood

oxygen and will increase output of carbon dioxide, alkalizing pH.

Normally air contains 78% nitrogen and 21% oxugen. In general we

breath in only 4% oxygen in air With proper techniques this

proportion can be increased to 8% by yogic breathing techniques.

 

Next health measure can be increasing circulation. Most people are

sedentary so they don't have any lymph and blood circulation. We have

a stagnation which is caused by lack of life-giving circulation. A

stagnant swamp draws mosquitoes and flies and allows fungus and algae

to grow on the top. Many people have systemic candida problems

because of stagnation. Then the sugar, soft floor and junk foods that

they've been eating for years eventually collect in that stagnation

and ferment, causing scavengers of bacteria, viruses, parasites,

fluke worms, round worms and other virulent pathogens that eventually

feed and breed in that area. This is the reason, a fruit grower would

like to reduce sugar content of the fruit towards obtaining higher

shelf life.

 

Next health measure would be addressing vibratory problems. Cell

vibration would obviously be affected by not having enough

electromagnetic pulse waves to the cells because of toxicities and

other factors. Lack of circulation, filtration and exercise causes

cell vibration to drop to where cells become wobbly instead of having

a high vibratory rate -- what's called resonance. Instead of having a

left spin of health, which vacuums nutrition into the cells like a

tornado vortex, the cells becomes wobbly and repel nutrients and

fluids with a right spin and low vibratory rate similar to two

magnets in opposition to each other. When this happens they start

spinning right, keeping them on the outside of the cell. The cells

either spin left for health or right in a "dis-ease" process. This

spin can be linked to Pran shakti. After some age, even giving highly

nutrient food does not help gain strength.

 

Last protocol of detoxification is heavy metal chelation. Most of us

today are loaded with heavy metals from mercury amalgam fillings in

teeth, fish, vaccines, aluminum from aluminum cans, cookware,

cosmetic items and other industrial sources. All of these heavy

metals imbed deep into the brain and nervous system and have a

dramatic impact on the body's health. MOre important than finding out

what heavy metals may be in our system, is to get them chelated out

of the body. Panch Gavya medicines help a lot in this chelation

process. The affinity between cow dung and cow urine and certain

deadly toxins has been mentioned in indian mythology too.

 

This discussion gives overall skeleton of the health programme. In

subsequent posts, one each week, author will take up each of health

measure one-by-one or two at a time and discuss details of

alternatives available to us.

Dear Dr Bhate,

 

Your articles in the series "Iron rules of health" are worth their

weight in gold. I feel each and every person should go in for at least

one Panchakarma Therapy and Naturopathic Detoxes later. The

naturopathic cleansing should be regular and at least once every three

months.

 

A naturopathic treatment will make us realise the importance of

discriminating in food intake and also the need to take active interest

in the maintainence of health. When your stomach is being cleaned you

cannot but wonder how you have gorged it with the wrong kind of food.

This treatment has turned almost all into vegetarians and encouraged

people to increase intake of raw fruit and juices. I believe many must

have also given up vices like smoking or drinking as they observe the

need to detoxify the body. It is a great wonder how this simple therapy

of mud, water, diet and exercise can change your attitude towards life.

I would request Dr Nishal of our group to share more in this context.

 

We should also think about taking liver and kidney detoxifying herbs on

a somewhat regular basis. The skin also should be kept clean by

scrubbing it while taking a good bath and by exercising so as to sweat.

 

Regarding heavy metals, we should get our hair, nails and urine

examined to know if we have heavy concentration of any metals in our

system. We cannot remain impervious to this threat and should raise our

voices against rampant pollution of the food, air and water.

 

In India very few people bother about checking the contents of the

processed foods and chemical medicines they regularly consume. One

should educate oneself of the hidden dangers and make it a habit to ask

the shopkeeper or the doctor and seek clarifications. It is well and

truly said, "Our health is in our own hands". We live in an age where a

single mistake can make our life a horror story.

 

Regards,

Jagannath.
