Guest guest Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 I was wondering what 's point of view on binge eating disorder. This is where an individual feels a compulsion to not stop eating at the point of fullness and can consume up to 3,000 -10,000+ day or until there is physical pain. What is generally the cause and treatment for this? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Hi, Apples: That is called dietary iregularities in Chinese medicine, or yin shi shi tiao, which means a loss of regulation in food and drink. That loss leads to imbalances, and imbalances lead to health problems. " Dietary irregularities may not only affect the Spleen and Stomach, but also cause digestive disturbances...in the case of excessive liquor, or to much sweet or fatty food, create heat, phlegm and dampness. " " Improper diet may combine with the six excesses to cause disease. " That's from Wiseman and Ye. It would be important to see what the person is eating and what imbalances the diet is causing. It would also be important to see what emotional factors are contributing to the binge eating. There are acupoints and herbal formulas for weight loss in Chinese medicine.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 G'day All, -in my case,four Decades of bingeing ended with the Extraction of all the teeth. You may doubt this, but there is no doubt in my mind that all those amalgams [the teeth were mere shells filled with the stuff!] caused it. dr Caron daVita has lectured on the heavy metal connection: Hg attracts aluminium & other metals. And of course, all this screws up Brain Chemistry. Some of us pig out,others booze up or do drugs,or go nuts with all kinds of deviant behaviour. -no kidding: with the teeth out, twenty years later there has not been one incident of pigging out. Honestly, i can walk past a pie,cookies,etc, sans ANY desire... As an aside, as a 10yr old kid, i weighed 110lbs! [George Chuvalo,heavyweight champion boxer, was 70lbs at 10yrs] NB -even with all the mercury tattoos in the mouth,the tip of the iceberg so to speak, of the vast amounts still in the body, which took 15 yrs to diminish so that you could count them on one hand, the craving stopped. -mega supplements,homeopathics & Cilantro, as well as a dairy & meat free diet were the ticket for me.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Dar: That sounds real intriguing, am getting all of mine replaced. I've had a mouthful of poison all these years. Cilantro? Can you tell more about the benefits? I loved it in Mexican food and insist on it in China, but my wife doesn't care for the flavor.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 BTW, cilantro is a fairly easy herb to grow, and if allowed to go to seed will reseed itself. I don't know how cold it gets where you live, but I have a pot on the porch that is still green. It's gotten down to the teens F where I live. The porch is covered on top but open on the sides. I have it on an open sided shelf with a shelf above it. Most heat loss is upward. Some plants will survive temps to the teens F if they are protected some from upward heat loss. Like on a covered porch or under the underhang of a house. New gardeners, don't forget to water plants that are on a porch. You don't have to water very often during winter, but you will need to water some. Especially if the weather turns dry and/or there's a lot of wind. Wind not only can adversely affect humans and other animals, it can affect plants adversely too. When my husband and I lived in Arizona (USA), neighbors used to marvel at how nice our garden area looked. The reason it did so well is that my husband put up a cinderblock wall on the west side of the property which protected the area from the wind. Where we lived got a lot of wind a lot of the year.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2007 Report Share Posted February 11, 2007 Be careful when replacing mercury based amalgam fillings as the inhaling of out gassing Hg vapors could be worse than having them in the first place! You should only use a holistic dentist that is experienced with the procedure! Cilantro acts as a mild chelating agent that binds mercury so it can be eliminated by the liver, but keep in mind that therapeutic chelation to address neurological problems is a slow process as it doesn't directly enter pass the blood/brain barrier but acts to reduce the overall concentration in the rest of the body so that eventually by a process of diffusion, the brain is also " cleaned " out.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Domingo, Victoria: Thank you for the explanations, that helps clarify a good deal. Cilantro is readily available in our local markets year round, but since my wife dislikes the flavor, she " forgets " to buy some. I need to remind her each week. My favorite food remains Mexican, with rice, corn and beans, red peppers and cilantro. That puzzles my wife, who thinks that only Chinese food is worthwhile. I'd grow cilantro, but again, my wife, like many Chinese, likes to keep a sparse, bare home (ie, plants are dirty and messy). She even resents the aloe plant I adopted last year, so it would be tough to start growing cilantro. We have found a dentist who is aware of the amalgam problem and we've been working to rid them from my mouth.

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 How do TCMers 1-most everyone says teeth should be extracted quandrants at a time: in my case it was a one shot deal: didn't have the bucks or guts to endure four appointments & four doses of anaesthetics & four times the pain... Perhaps it went okay with no major health crises because the diet had been meat & dairy free for almost a decade. 2-alas fresh Cilantro is good, but according to dr Caron, you gotta take *Tincture* for real punch. BTW, dentures are full of Hg, which gives them the pink colour. go figure. cheers, dar Re: Binge eating " Domingo Pichardo " wrote: Be careful when replacing mercury based amalgam fillings as the inhaling of out gassing Hg vapors could be worse than having them in the first place!

Guest guest Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 If you are talking about extracting the entire tooth, then there is no problem with out-gassing of Hg vapors! I wouldn't become too obsessed with this issue... there are many other more significant sources of toxins in our environment, specially from the burning of fossil fuels for energy production! See if there is anything you can do in your life to cut back on demand and vote for politicians that are sensitive to conservation initiatives, like the Green Party! You can also start by joining and supporting organizations like Greenpeace! http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/ http://www.gp.org/ Domingo dar wrote: > > How do TCMers > 1-most everyone says teeth should be extracted > quandrants at a time: > in my case it was a one shot deal: didn't have the > bucks or guts to endure four appointments & four doses > of anaesthetics & four times the pain... > > Perhaps it went okay with no major health crises > because the diet had been meat & dairy free for almost a > decade. > > 2-alas fresh Cilantro is good, > but according to dr Caron, you gotta take *Tincture* > for real punch. > > BTW, dentures are full of Hg, which gives them the > pink colour. go figure. > cheers, > dar > > Re: Binge eating > " Domingo Pichardo " wrote: > > Be careful when replacing mercury based amalgam > fillings as the > inhaling of out gassing Hg vapors could be worse than > having them in > the > first place!
