Common Summer Myths Debunked!

Summers have descended in most parts of the world. And, in India, especially, it is on full show! With temperatures scorching more than 40 degrees in many areas, the onset of disease has become simply unavoidable. In such a scenario, the best thing you can do for your health is to ensure that your body immunity remains intact. For this, you first need to understand how the summer heat affects your body and what you can do to save yourself from damage.

Summer Myths and Truths

Myth: Missing a meal keeps the body light
Truth: In reality, it is not advisable to miss a meal, especially if you have a Pitta (Fire) constitution. Missed meals not only aggravate Pitta, but also impair the body’s digestive process leading to accumulation of ama (toxins), which is the primary cause of disease in the body. It is better to eat light, regular meals consisting of grains, vegetables and fruits and drink lots of water to flush out the toxins from your system.

Myth: Iced drinks are a great way to stay cool in summers
Truth: Even though it is recommended to increase your fluid intake during summers, you need to be careful about iced drinks, as they are known to slow down the digestive process. Instead, try mixing fresh lime juice with water. Coconut water is also very cooling and healthy.

Myth: Body massage should be avoided in summers
Truth: Oils like Almond Oil and Olive Oil are considered ‘heating’ during summers. But, a daily massage with cooling coconut oil is known to nourish and clear heat from the skin. After the massage, wash off with a cool shower; avoid hot baths and showers, saunas and steam rooms. To be on the safe side, limit the massage to thrice a week.

Myth: Lesser the clothes, the better
Truth: It is common to find men and women resort to lesser amount of clothing during summers in the belief that it would make them feel more comfortable. On the contrary, when exposed to the harmful rays of the sun, the skin becomes more susceptible to disease if it is not covered up properly. Therefore, you need to keep yourself covered, especially if you have Pitta predominant fair skin with freckles and moles.

Myth: Air conditioning will keep you cool
Truth: Air conditioners have become an important part of our lives; there presence can be felt everywhere – at home, cars and workplaces, etc. Even though they do help keep our bodies cool for certain periods of time, in the longer run, they impact our health negatively. Air conditioners block the natural ventilation of any space, thereby leading to accumulation of contaminated air which is harmful for the body. In many individuals, headaches and fatigue are often attributable to the overuse of ACs.

Myth: It is okay to sleep late in summers
Truth: A late summer evening is the ideal time for outings for many families. Most people don’t know that summer is a Pitta season, and because Pitta peaks between 11 pm and 2 am, it is always advisable to sleep by 10 pm. By staying awake late you will make it easy for diseases to reach you.

Ward off Common Summer Problems with Ayurveda

In summers, because of the extreme action of the sun, our digestive fire (jatharagni) is easily displaced by external heat, drawing internal fire to the body, which leads to problems such as heat rash/prickly heat, other skin problems, bloodshot eyes, diarrhea, dehydration and other digestive complaints. Read on to know how you can treat common summer ailments by making simple diet and lifestyle adjustments.

Skin Problems
Rashes, allergies and other skin disorders are the result of ama accumulation in the skin. The best way to treat them is by avoiding consumption of opposite foods (e.g. fish and milk together) and not controlling natural urges like vomiting, urination, bowels, etc. Also, absolutely restrict the intake of salty, sour or acidic foods.

Diarrhea
It is caused by the bowels’ inability to cope with fatty foods which leads to ama production. In order to flush away these toxins, the body evacuates the bowels frequently, and because the digestive system is not working properly, these evacuations come out as loose and runny stools. It is advisable to take a liquid diet of purifying agents such as vegetable soups. Yoghurt, buttermilk, banana and pomegranate are also good for Diarrhea.

Dehydration
Dehydration is excessive loss of water from the body. It results in deprivation of essential nutrients, leaving the body fatigued. In summers, sweating also contributes to water loss. The only way of preventing any type of dehydration is to replace the lost fluid by drinking lots of water regularly. Make it a point to take a minimum of 3 liters of water daily. Coconut water, barley water, sugarcane juice or glucose water, etc., are also recommended.

Digestive Disorders
Undigested food leads to the formation of ama in the body and impairs the digestive fire. To keep digestive problems at bay, follow Ayurvedic rules of eating. Cut down on carbohydrates and include more of fresh, natural, organic, and vegetarian foods in your diet. Avoid canned foods, old-kept foods items (leftovers), processed foods, deep fried and heavily spiced foods, junk foods and meat, etc. In addition, stimulants like caffeine (coffee, black tea), alcohol, smoking, fizzy drinks and drugs should also be avoided.

Acne – A Jiva Case Study

Ms. Kavita Singh (name changed), a 19-year-old student from Jabalpur, India, called the Jiva TeleMedicine Center to get an Ayurvedic cure for her one-year-old problem of Acne. She had numerous boils on her face, which were inflamed and painful. After every 24 hours or so, the boils had pus formation around them, and within 72 hours, they dissolved on their own. This left visible black spots on her facial skin. The patient also had complaints of oily skin and mild constipation.

When Ms. Singh approached Jiva, she badly wanted to get rid of her problem as it was causing her a lot of social embarrassment. She had tried all kinds of skin creams and hormone-balancing tablets, but nothing provided long-term relief from her problem.

The Ayurvedic View
One of Jiva’s doctors analyzed her case in detail after taking her complete medical history and symptomatic information. It was a clear case of Yauvanpidika or Acne. Acne is a common problem of adolescents, and is therefore known as Yauvanpidika in Ayurveda; Yauvan means ‘adolescence’ and pidika means ‘pustules or papules’.

In Ms. Singh’s case, the problem was caused by aggravation of Pitta Dosha (Ayurvedic humor representing Fire) in her body, as evidenced by the inflammation in her boils as well as the problem of mild constipation. The Pitta had further impaired the Rakta and Meda Dhatu (blood and fat tissues), producing toxins that blocked skin’s pores, leading to acne formation. And, when combined with Vata (Ayurvedic humor representing Air), it caused pain in the affected region. Additionally, the fact that her boils dissolved on their own, without any external intervention, indicated hormonal disturbance in the body.

What did Jiva suggest?
Jiva created a customized line of treatment for Ms. Singh, which included herbal medicines for:

Pacification of aggravated Pitta

Shodh Har Chikitsa (anti-inflammatory treatment) in order to ease the pain caused by inflammation

Purification of blood

Balancing disturbed hormones in the body

Improving liver function and treating constipation so that Pitta can be controlled

She was also recommended a strict anti-Pitta diet that contained fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains. All kinds of spicy and fermented foods were strictly prohibited.

The Result
Within the first 25 days of treatment, Ms. Singh felt about 20% improvement in her condition. She continued the medicines for two months and by the end of it, her Acne was completely cured. She took the treatment for an additional two months in order to purify her blood and maintain her hormonal balance. The only thing that remains is few black spots, for which she has been recommended the Jiva Turmeric Cream.

“I tried all kinds of creams and medicines for my problem of Acne, but nothing worked. For more than a year, I had these terrible, painful boils all over the face. It was so embarrassing! In just four months of treatment with Jiva, all my boils disappeared and I am feeling much more confident now. Their diet advice also helped me improve my overall health to a great extent.”

In order to have sound sleep, keep your feet soaked in warm water for ten minutes before going to bed. Doing so will help increase blood flow to your feet, making them warmer, and helping you sleep better. Also, prana vata (a sub-dosha of Vata or Air), which is responsible for disturbed sleep, is pacified through the use of warm water.

Mission Ayurveda traverses Punjab and Uttaranchal

Jiva Ayurveda has been doing what no other Ayurvedic company has done so far in India. It is visiting the country’s top Ayurvedic colleges on a regular basis in a bid to bring on board fresh and experienced doctors for its TeleMedicine Center (TMC).

As part of its initiative of training doctors from various parts of the country, Jiva recently organized a campus interview session at Desh Bhagat Ayurvedic College and Hospital, Fatehpur Sahib, Punjab. Three top Ayurvedic colleges of the region participated in the event, with over 100 BAMS students (interns and alumni) rooting for jobs with Jiva.

Dr. Kulbhushan, vice principal of the college, expressed his happiness at the success of the event. “We are very happy with the response to the session. In fact, about ten students who attended the session are on their way to join Jiva Ayurveda. We need more companies like Jiva to come forward to help fresh Ayurvedic doctors get good jobs,” he said.

After Punjab, Jiva took the Ayurvedic recruitment bandwagon to the holy city of Haridwar in Uttaranchal. The campus recruitment session was held at Rishikul Government Ayurvedic College – the first event of its kind in the college – and invited participation from about 50 students. In fact, after a round of technical tests and interviews, a few doctors from Haridwar have already joined the Jiva TMC.

Dr. Pradeep Bharadwaj, principal of Rishikul Government Ayurvedic College, was quite upbeat about the event. “We thank the Jiva team for helping our students find lucrative career opportunities in the field of Ayurveda. We hope to organize such sessions every year,” he said.

The Jiva TeleMedicine Center, a first-of-its-kind concept in the world, was established in 1998 as an integrated center of telephonic health consultation. Today, Jiva has over 150 Ayurvedic doctors and consultants providing consultations to millions of patients across 1200 cities and towns in India.

Soaking up the Monsoon Spirit?
Don’t let your health ruin all the fun.

The monsoon season is always a welcome relief after a hot, dry spell of summer. Almost every individual, irrespective of age, gender or geographical location, has fond memories associated with rains.

Some welcome them by cooking special food (in India, tea and pakoras are the hot favorites!), some get drenched in the showers, while many others celebrate at home with loved ones.

Why do diseases love monsoon?
While it is the time to enjoy the cool downpour, it is also the time to welcome a host of diseases – arthritis, asthma, sinusitis, diarrhea, indigestion, skin diseases, gastrointestinal infections like typhoid and cholera, etc. – that plague us during this season. As the rainy season progresses, long queues in front of hospitals and clinics become a common sight. Even though modern medicine offers effective treatment for most of these ailments, Ayurveda emphasizes on the need for preventive cure in order to keep the body healthy in monsoons.

In Ayurveda, the period between mid-June and mid-August is referred to as the Varsha Ritu or the Rainy Season. Varsha Ritu falls in the Uttarayan (northern solstice) and in this phase, the general body strength of most people gets weakened. Monsoons also reduce the immunity of our body and make us susceptible to diseases. In this season, the body’s digestive power or jatharagni gets impaired and, as a result, it is not able to properly digest the food that is consumed. This leads to formation of ama or toxins in the intestines, which happens to be the leading cause of disease in the body. If ama is not cleared, it will continue to build and can cause an imbalance of the doshas or the natural forces at work in the body. When the causative factors of the imbalance are not addressed, the ama can react with doshas and cause disease.

Maintaining Health in the Rainy Season
To maintain good health in this season, it is imperative that you eat the right kinds of food and lead an active lifestyle. This will ensure that your digestive system remains intact and the production of toxins is prevented.

Here are some excellent Ayurvedic tips to increase body immunity and prevent monsoon disorders:

Eat light foods like fresh vegetables, fruits, cereals, etc. To kill germs, make sure you wash green leafy vegetables and fruits properly before eating.

Reduce the consumption of fried or heavy foods as they impair the digestive power of the body. Especially avoid eating meat or fish.

Reduce consumption of dairy products like yoghurt, buttermilk and cottage cheese as the body takes a lot of time to digest them.

Avoid heavy and salty food items as they lead to water retention and bloating in the body.

Eat foods that are drying in nature, such as corn (makka), chickpea (chana), gram flour (besan), oats (jow), etc.

Avoid heavy oils like mustard oil, peanut oil, or sesame oil. They are known to increase Pitta (fire) and can lead to infection. Use corn oil or olive oil instead.

Avoid sour food items like tamarind (imli), chutneys and pickles as they cause water retention.

Consume bitter vegetables like bitter gourd (karela) and herbs like neem, fenugreek (methi) seeds, turmeric (haldi), etc. as they are known to prevent infection.

Drink lots of warming herbal teas, especially those with antibacterial properties such as holy basil leaves.

Massage your body with sesame oil twice a week as it helps in controlling the production of toxins in the body. And, to avoid skin infections and itching, add 1 or 2 spoons of Neem Oil to half a cup of Sesame Oil and use this for massage before bath at least once a week.

Do not indulge in heavy exercises; brisk walking along with yoga or stretching is better.

Necessary Precautions during Monsoons

Always keep your surroundings dry and clean. Do not allow water to get accumulated around you.

Keep your body warm as viruses attack immediately when body temperature goes down.

Do not enter an air-conditioned room if you have wet hair or are wearing damp clothes.

Avoid eating uncooked foods and salads. Definitely avoid roadside vendors as very few people take precautions to handle the bacterial overload at such places.

Drink plenty of water and keep your body well-hydrated.

Walking in dirty water during rainy season can lead to fungal infections which mainly affect toes and nails. Diabetic patients should take special care to keep their feet dry and clean.

Avoid walking in dirty water and keep your raincoats and shoes dry and clean. Drying clothes with fumes of dry Neem leaves is recommended as it helps kill bacteria.

Make sure your drinking water is clean and pure. Drink boiled water at home and only mineral water when outside.

In rains, puddles of water become breeding grounds for mosquitoes which spread diseases like malaria and dengue fever. Fumigate your house with smoke of dried Neem leaves in the evenings for 1-2 minutes. This is an excellent Ayurvedic method to keep mosquitoes away.

If you are suffering from asthma or diabetes, avoid staying in a place that has wet walls. Wetness promotes the growth of fungus that can become the cause of infections.

Rains affect our level of outdoor activities; so, you need to take special care to indulge in indoor physical activities so that laziness does not grow on you.

If you are prone to joint pains, avoid sitting or lying down on the floor. The pain can get aggravated when the skin comes in contact with a wet or cold surface.

Avoid sleeping soon after lunch as it worsens indigestion problems.

Taking preventive care with regard to eating healthy food and keeping the body and surroundings clean will help you keep diseases at bay in this rainy season. By doing so, you can ensure that the upcoming winter proves beneficial in enhancing your health and vitality. Keep the above-mentioned tips and precautions in mind and you will be able to enjoy monsoons thoroughly.

Have a healthy and safe monsoon!

Psoriasis – A Jiva TeleMedicine Center Case Study

Monsoon is one of the worst seasons as far as the skin is concerned. Whether you have a seasonal infection or a chronic skin disease, Ayurveda offers the right natural solution for your problem. Through this case study of Psoriasis – a common skin disorder – we would like to highlight how Ayurveda helps treat skin ailments.

The Case
Mr. Kushal Singh (name changed), a 67-year-old retired government official from Kanpur, India, had the problem of cracking of heels from the age of twelve. For the last ten years, he has had red patches of thickened, raised and dry skin on his hands and legs. This skin flaked off sporadically and he even experienced swelling in winters. The patient had additional complaints of constipation, flatulence and anorexia.

History of Treatment
For ten years, Mr. Singh had been taking medicines for his condition. The patient was administered bath solutions and moisturizers, mineral oils, and petroleum jelly to soothe affected skin and reduce the dryness which accompanies the build-up of skin on psoriatic plaques. He was also taking strong medication on a daily basis to keep the problem in control.

On someone's recommendation, the patient called the Jiva TeleMedicine Center to try Ayurveda as an option in addition to his ongoing treatment.

What is Psoriasis?

The Modern View
Psoriasis is a chronic (long-lasting) skin disorder that causes scaling and inflammation. It is suspected to be autoimmune in origin. The scaly patches caused by Psoriasis, called psoriatic plaques, are areas of inflammation and excessive skin production.

The Ayurvedic View
According to Ayurveda, Psoriasis or Mandal can be caused by an imbalance of any of the three Doshas or Ayurvedic humors in the body. In Mr. Singh’s case, the prime doshas involved are Vata and Pitta. Vata symbolizes air or wind and is cold, dry, mobile, and light in nature; Pitta symbolizes fire and is heating in nature. Vata and Pitta manifest in the skin and cause accumulation of ama or toxins. These toxins accumulate in body tissues such as rasa (nutrient plasma), rakta (blood), mansa (muscles) and lasika (lymph). These toxins cause further contamination of deeper tissues, leading to skin conditions like Psoriasis.

Jiva’s Treatment Plan
According to Ayurveda, most skin problems have deep-rooted causes that are often ignored. Use of local creams or antibiotics can only mask the symptoms; they do not provide long-term relief. Therefore, Jiva recommended a customized treatment plan to Mr. Singh that included right diet, lifestyle and some specialized herbal combinations.

The Ayurvedic medicines worked on pacifying the aggravated Vata and Pitta doshas. They also helped in purifying the blood, cleaning the channels of toxins, and rejuvenating the skin cells. This resulted in an improvement in digestion levels and ultimately helped in healing the skin rashes and inflammation.

The Result
Mr. Singh took Jiva’s medicines and adhered to our diet and lifestyle guidelines for ten months. After the treatment, there were no new eruptions in his skin and the subsequent winter passed off very calmly. The patient is continuing with the medicines in order to get long-term relief from his problem.

“Skin disease can be really painful and embarassing. In my case, despite applying creams and taking antibiotics on a daily basis, I could not get a sustainable solution to my problem. I tried Jiva Ayurveda on someone’s recommendation and I would say it’s been like a boon for me. In ten months of treatment, my skin eruptions had stopped completely – something that had not happened in ten years! I am continuing with the medication in the belief that a permanent cure is near.”

If you are looking for a long-term cure for your skin problem, call the Jiva TeleMedicine Center at 0129-4088152 (only for patients in India) or write to us at info@jiva.com for a free health consultation from a Jiva Ayurveda doctor.

Working on the computer or watching television for long hours is not good for eyes. When you look at an object for any length of time it aggravates Pitta (fire) in the eye region. To pacify Pitta, splash your eyes with cold water every 2-3 hours. You can also relax your eyes by closing them for a few minutes in every hour.

Know Yourself Today for a Better Tomorrow

Here's the daily routine of a 25-year-old corporate executive. Does this look like YOUR routine too? If yes, well… it’s time for a reality check!

Wake up time: 8 am
Bathing & Grooming: All in a hurry (expensive clothing and deodorants will take care of the rest)
Breakfast: Where’s the time; I am already late!
In office: Always in front of the computer; I do take occasional breaks to smoke or have a sip of tea
Lunch: I love binging on the junk stuff available in the cafeteria – burgers, samosas, pizzas, wafers, soft drinks, and more. And by the way, I have my lunch after 4 pm – busy with work you see!
Evenings: Yet another fag and a cuppa coffee! I need to stay alert; got a deadline to finish.
Dinner: In office of course! Let me see… may be some more pizza.
Back at home: 10 pm
Family time: My favorite TV show is about to begin; can’t miss it. My family understands that after a long day at work I need some ‘me time’.
Going to Bed: After 12 midnight

According to Ayurveda, one of prime causes of disease is 'misuse of intelligence' (Pragyaparadha). Despite being the most intelligent race on the planet, human beings often do not use their intelligence in basic situations concerning their own body and health. This is especially true in the case of youth, who consider health to be something that needs to be paid attention to at later stages of life! After all, aren’t career, ambition and money more important right now?

The renowned Greek philosopher, Aristotle once said, “Good habits formed at youth make all the difference.” The habits formed in youth have a lasting impact on our life and often define our productivity and success in later stages. If you can adapt healthy eating and lifestyle habits in your youth, there will be no need to spend exorbitantly on treating chronic diseases in the old age.

But, I love my ‘cool’ lifestyle! Why should I let Ayurveda change it?
The youth is generally characterized as ambitious, adventurous, high-tech and time-poor. You work long hours in offices with artificial light and air-conditioning systems, rushing from one mundane task to the next while being bombarded with advertising and constant noise, and absorbing pollution through the air and water. Irrespective of all this, you love this ‘cool’ lifestyle and would never choose anything else in its place. But then, Ayurveda does not insist on changing your lifestyle; it just propagates the need to be healthy. Let’s find out how.

Am I growing older too soon?
Will you be surprised if I tell you that a huge number of young people are suffering from hyperacidity, constipation, cervical problems, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, asthma, and migraine, among other diseases? I guess no. But, if I tell you, many of these diseases were, about a decade ago, mostly associated with people above the age of 40, you will be forced to ask yourself – Am I growing older too soon?

Have you ever thought what is it that makes you so vulnerable to these health problems? You eat the best food available, wear expensive clothes and accessories, have a great career and relationship… everything is going good in your life. But, the one extremely critical aspect of your being that has been ignored for too long is your body. You have seldom had the time to understand what your body really needs to stay healthy, and probably, that’s the reason you feel you are aging far too early.

So, what’s the solution? First things first, get to know yourself!

How do I get to know myself?
Ayurveda, the world’s oldest science of healing, is not just any other form of treatment available in the market. It is ‘a way of life’ that guides us on how to listen to our bodies and read the signals of distress to maintain good health and make our lives more balanced, productive and contented.

Ayurveda stresses a balance of three elemental energies or humors: Vata (Air), Pitta (Fire) and Kapha (Water). These regulatory principles, known as Doshas, define an individual’s Prakriti or Nature. They are important for health, because when they are in balanced state, the body is healthy, and when imbalanced, the body has diseases.

The first step to knowing yourself is finding out your Dosha. The easiest way of doing this is by taking our body type test, known as the VPK Test.

Now that I know myself, what do I do about it?
Knowing your Dosha provides you with an understanding of your basic physical nature, and helps you tailor a personal diet and lifestyle that maintains optimum health and peace of mind. Each person has a unique Dosha with unique nutritional needs. Establishing your Dosha enables you to determine suitable diets, exercises and lifestyles to maintain balance. This is the key to maintaining health.

Always remember, to follow Ayurvedic principles, you don’t need to reject modern life or live in a grass hut or on a deserted island. We often don’t really have a choice, and we shouldn’t have to forfeit the advantages of modern life simply because it has so many disadvantages. Instead, we can utilize this discipline to learn how to identify imbalances in our body. We can also learn what to do in order to reverse such disturbances and stabilize our body and mind. Ayurveda should be integrated into our lives to attain health, happiness and peace.

Believe Ayurveda is not meant for you? Think again!

Ayurveda has been widely recognized as a system of natural healthcare congenial to the health needs of the modern world. However, despite its increasing popularity across the globe, many people (especially the youth) are often hesitant in approaching Ayurveda. The reasons could be manifold – lack of awareness about this ancient science, easy availability of modern medicine, and the youth’s obsession with so-called quick-fix solutions, among others. More than anything else, what has hampered Ayurveda’s reach among the youth is the many misconceptions that engulf its existence.

Let’s try and find out some realities about Ayurveda:

The youth believes: Pills provide instant relief; Ayurveda takes time
The reality is: There are both slow acting and fast-acting Ayurvedic medicines. It all depends on the underlying cause of the disease. Unlike modern medicines, Ayurveda doesn’t just treat the symptoms; it attacks the root cause of disease. And, if that cause is formidable, Ayurvedic cure takes time in overcoming it. Also, many patients seek Ayurveda only after trying all other forms of treatment. And by then, their disease often becomes chronic in nature. Unfortunately, in such cases, many people don’t have the patience to allow Ayurvedic medicines to show their effect. When they see no immediate improvement, they quickly switch to other alternatives. It is important to realize that Ayurveda can be highly effective if the patient approaches it in early stages and gives it time to heal their body.

The youth believes: Ayurveda is nothing more than grandma’s home remedies
The reality is: Ayurveda is not just a form of treatment; it is a way of life. Yes, it is a lot about herbs and home remedies, but, that’s not all to it. If adapted in their entirety, Ayurvedic principles can be extremely beneficial in making your life more balanced, healthy and productive. Moreover, Ayurvedic medicines are formulations made of herbs, minerals, oils, and other natural ingredients that are customized to suit an individual’s Prakriti (‘nature’ as defined by body-mind combination). Also, because the root cause of disease is highly stressed upon, the medication cannot be as universally applicable as ‘grandma’s home remedies’.

The youth believes: Ayurveda is only meant for people with chronic ailments
The reality is: Most people do not approach Ayurveda in the initial stages of their problem as they believe it is only meant for those ‘major’ diseases. Agreed, it has been proven effective in treating chronic disorders – especially diabetes, arthritis, asthma, obesity, skin diseases, etc. – but it is also beneficial for people suffering from common ailments like indigestion, headache, cold & cough, fever, etc. Herbal medicines, Panchakarma therapies and customized diet and lifestyle plan are recommended to each patient in Ayurveda, irrespective of the severity of disease.

The youth believes: Ayurvedic principles are not in tune with modern science
The reality is: Despite being the oldest science of healing in the world, Ayurveda is pretty much in tune with modern science. According to Ayurveda, each individual’s body constitution is defined by his combination of doshas or humors, viz. Vata, Pitta and Kapha. An imbalance of these elemental combinations is the direct cause of physical disease. Though invisible, they are responsible for functions like providing energy, motility, circulation, digestion, and metabolism, among others. For decades now, modern science has made several attempts to map the tridosha theory to knowledge about the human physiology. In fact, a recent article in the New York Times indicated that scientists have found ‘three kinds of ecosystems’ in human beings, which could help classify people into distinct categories and lead to medical applications of its own. Who knows, this could be just another step in establishing Ayurveda’s role in influencing modern science!

Hyperacidity – A Jiva Case Study

Life would have been very different for Ajay Sharma (name changed) had he not been vomiting 3-4 times every day! A 28-year-old from Mumbai, India, Ajay always had the drive to ‘make it big’. But his health had other plans for him.

For five years, Ajay’s life has been turned upside down because of his problem of hyperacidity, characterized by a constant burning sensation in his esophagus. The smell of petrol, kerosene, gases, etc. made him nauseate. Moreover, he also felt restless all the time – a tendency that had hampered his concentration levels to a great extent. Because of these problems, he was unable to find suitable employment for himself. And when he did, he had to give a variety of explanations for his frequent absences from work – most of which failed to impress the bosses.

Ajay had tried all kinds of treatment to get rid of his problem, but things only worked out in bits and pieces. Nothing was lasting enough to have a long-term impact. Highly distressed with his life and unable to find the right solution, Ajay called the Jiva TeleMedicine Center on the recommendation of a friend.

Jiva found out…
That Ajay’s condition was the result of faulty choices made during his young age. As a student, he was in the habit of consuming junk food on a daily basis. Despite being a working woman, his mother always ensured he was well fed during her absence. She prepared nutritious lunch and evening snacks for him daily, but everything went in vain. Ajay was more interested in the samosas, tikkis and burgers that were so easily available in the locality. Moreover, his parents’ ‘non-availability’ in that stage of his life had increased his stress levels to a great extent. These factors had led to the aggravation of Pitta in his body.

Understanding Amalpitta
Pitta, the Ayurvedic humor representing Fire, is responsible for controlling digestion and metabolism in the body. In an aggravated state, it leads to improper digestion of food and production of ama (toxins). This ama gets accumulated in the digestive channels and causes Hyperacidity. Known as Amalpitta in Ayurveda (Amal means sour and Pitta means heat), Hyperacidity is a condition characterized by an increase of sourness and heat in the body. In Ajay’s case, the persistent vomiting was caused by regurgitation of undigested food from his stomach.

Our doctor suggested…
A customized line of Ayurvedic treatment for Ajay, after analyzing his case history and present symptoms in detail. The treatment consisted of herbal medicines for pacification of Pitta as well as elimination of toxins present inside his digestive channels. For this, he was recommended a strict anti-Pitta diet that contained fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains. All kinds of spicy, fermented and junk foods were strictly prohibited. Additionally, he was also prescribed nerve and brain relaxing tonics to reduce the levels of stress.

In nine months’ time…
Ajay felt remarkable improvement in his condition. His vomiting had stopped completely and he was feeling quite energetic. The stress levels had gone down significantly and he was a lot calmer now.

“I had lost faith that my condition could ever be treated. I was feeling helpless when I contacted Jiva. But, with the help of their Ayurvedic medicines and tailor-made diet plan, I have not only managed to put an end to the vomiting, but have also started feeling better overall. In retrospect, I feel I could have stopped this from happening to me by simply altering my lifestyle.”

Try to maintain a cordial and positive atmosphere in your work place, and avoid stress and anxiety. Avoid tea, coffee, cola drinks and processed snacks. This will help prevent over-stimulation of the nervous and digestive systems. Walking around briefly or stretching occasionally, if sitting for long periods, can prevent muscle stiffness, fatigue, & eyestrain. Do not work for long periods without taking breaks.

Medicinal properties of Dahi:
Freshly prepared dahi is sweet in nature, but if you keep it for a few hours, its nature becomes acidic. It is deepan, (which increases digestive fire), grahi (which stops bowel movements), balya (which gives strength), and bhringan (which nourishes all body tissues).

Dahi is useful for people suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome, diarrhea, fever and general debility. If taken in excessive amount, it can cause edema, skin diseases, bleeding disorders and jaundice.

Dosha Analysis:
Dahi is Abhishaynadi, Vata Shamak (pacifies Vata), and increases Kapha and Pitta.

Ingredients:

• Whole regular milk: 1 Quart

• Dried whole milk: 2 tablespoons

• Cream: 1 spoon

• Starter Culture: ¼ cup

Preparation:

•

Stir in dried whole milk. Heat it in a pan for a few minutes.

•

Add starter culture and mix well.

•

Add cream and incubate in a warm place for about six hours.

•

Cool it in the refrigerator for about two hours before using. You should have a perfect batch of Dahi.

•

While eating, add black salt, normal salt, coriander (dhania) powder, roasted cumin (jeera) powder, dry mango (amchur) powder, mint (pudina) powder, black pepper, fenugreek (methi) powder and asafoetida (hing).

The use of spices makes dahi anti-Kapha and thus usable by people with a Kapha dominance.

News from the World of Ayurveda

Ayurveda comes under Mediclaim Cover

Here’s a piece of good news for Indian patients seeking Ayurvedic treatment. If you are a medical insurance policy holder, you can now have your treatment covered as part of your mediclaim. Till some time back, individuals who preferred such systems had to pay out of their own pockets despite having a comprehensive health insurance plan in place. But now, a number of insurance companies have started including such alternative forms of treatment under their cover, especially Ayurveda.

Speaking to the media about this development, Mr. S.S. Gopalarathnam, Managing Director, Cholamandalam MS General Insurance, said, “During various focus group discussions with customers and agents, we found that for chronic ailments like spondilytis, arthritis and epilepsy, many people preferred alternate streams of treatment such as Ayurveda, Homeopathy, etc. Ayurveda being the most prevalent of the alternate systems, we have designed a product to cover treatments under Ayurvedic hospitalization."

If you are interested in getting your Ayurvedic treatment covered in your policy, please contact your insurance provider for further details.

Ayurvedic Spa Facilities at
IIM-Kozhikode

The Indian Institute of Management at Kozhikode (Kerala), one of the most reputed management schools in India, will soon be incorporating Ayurvedic spa facilities in its campus. The facility will be part of their soon-to-be-launched Ayurvedic Wellness Center, meant for professional executives who attend their management development programmes.

The center will be a place for rejuvenation and its focus will be on easing stress for senior management professionals. Students at IIM-K are upbeat about the development and looking forward to the launch of the center. They feel, even though Ayurveda is a traditional practice, there are numerous ways to utilize it in the modern world.

Worried about Hypertension?
Keep a tab on your Lifestyle Today!

Most people in today’s generation have been raised without a basic education of how the body functions or what is beneficial and detrimental for it – both physically and mentally. As a result, we do not know how to keep diseases at bay to attain happiness in our lives. This simply means, we have a body, but have no idea of how to take care of it.

It is like buying a brand new car and jumping behind the steering wheel to take a ride before actually reading the manual or understanding the instructions. Without knowledge of the car’s functioning, you will not be able to sustain its performance for long. Sooner or later, it will begin to show signs of wear and tear, externally or internally. The car’s benefits can no longer be enjoyed unless you spend a lot of money on its repair. It eventually becomes like a sick body that cannot enjoy the advantages offered by life. The human body is a far more complex and valuable vehicle than a car. You can choose to just dump a car when it becomes a liability and buy a new one, but a body is irreplaceable. Unfortunately, many of us are more bothered about the cleaning and maintenance of our cars, instead of looking after our own health.

Hypertension Worldwide – Alarming Numbers Everywhere

• The WHO estimates that 600 million people with high blood pressure (HBP) are at risk of heart attack, stroke and cardiac failure.

• Worldwide, HBP is estimated to cause 7.1 million deaths, about 13 percent of the total global fatality.

• Across WHO regions, research indicates that about 62 percent of strokes and 49 percent of heart attacks are caused by HBP.

•. Hypertension causes 5 million premature deaths a year worldwide.

• A study stated that the prevalence of HBP will soar to 1.56 billion by the year 2025.

• During the last decade, the number of Americans with high blood pressure has increased by 30%. More than 73 million Americans aged 20 years and older (1 in 3 adults) now have HBP.

• In Asia, a steep increase in stroke mortality has accompanied a rapid rise in the prevalence of hypertension. Projections suggest that in China, hypertension will increase from 18.6 percent to 25 percent between 1995 and 2025. In India, the equivalent figures are 16.3 percent to 19.4 percent.

Ignorance is not always bliss. By comfortably ignoring our bodies, we are doing nothing more than inviting problems at all levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. The World Health Organization has recently warned that more than 270 million people are susceptible of falling victim to diseases linked to unhealthy lifestyles. This is because we are leading lives that are far removed from the nature. Instead of being in harmony with Earth, we have adopted artificial practices that disturb the equilibrium of the mind and body. We don’t have time to prepare breakfast, eat a fast food lunch at our desk and a pre-prepared dinner in front of the television. We cannot do without air-conditioning (artificial, unhealthy air) in our homes, cars, offices, and even on public transport! Gadgets are ruling our lives – so much so that we prefer interacting with our dear ones through emails or SMSes, instead of spending time with them in person.

This over-dependence on technology, coupled with deteriorating relationships, has left our lives dry and depressed. As a result, despite all the luxuries of modern times, most people today are stressed and unhappy. This imbalance in our lives has manifested in addiction, disease and death much sooner than our anticipated lifespan.

It is not surprising then to find problems of diabetes, obesity, hypertension, heart disorders, cancer, liver cirrhosis, stroke and stress, etc. ruling over our generation. Even though modern medicine has made huge strides in controlling these diseases, it is only able to suppress their symptoms, not cure them. Moreover, the continued use of strong medicines has left most patients dependent on chemicals, thereby weakening their immunity even further. This has compelled people to seek alternative treatments that can provide long-term relief from their problems. The solution to these problems lies in Ayurveda, the ancient science of healing that has addressed itself to the fundamental principles of good health, happiness and longevity.

Through this article, we wish to turn your focus to Hypertension – the ‘Silent Killer Disease’ that affects about 15-37 percent of the global adult population. The problem of Hypertension or High Blood Pressure is extremely alarming because, if not diagnosed and treated in time, it can ‘silently’ lead to graver complications in the form of hypertensive heart disease, stroke, kidney failure and obesity.

What is Hypertension?
Hypertension (known as Rakta Gata Vata in Ayurveda) is elevated pressure of the blood in the arteries. The increase in blood pressure depends upon a person’s age, sex, physical and mental activities, family history, and diet. Normal blood pressure of a healthy adult individual is 120 mmHg systolic and 80 mmHg diastolic. This condition results from two major factors that can either exist independently or together:

Narrowing of the body's smaller blood vessels (arterioles), which results in the blood exerting more pressure against the vessels' walls

The heart pumping blood with excessive force

Hypertension rarely shows any symptoms; BP levels should be checked at regular intervals to ensure that the problem is diagnosed in time. Some of the symptoms that might be present are pain at the back of the neck (occipital headache), fatigue, palpitations and dizziness. Read More

By Dr. Partap Chauhan

Hypertension – A Jiva Case Study

Mrs. Seema Puri (name changed), a 42-year-old married, working woman from Ludhiana, India, had been suffering from high blood pressure for the last ten years. To keep her problem in control, she had been taking a daily dose of allopathic medicines. Her extremely busy schedule meant she never got the time to delve deeply into her problem and find a long-term solution to it. In February 2010, she started feeling extreme side-effects from her daily medication in the form of weakness, fatigue and random bouts of insomnia. It was then that she felt the need to tackle the problem severely. She called the Jiva TeleMedicine Center to seek Ayurvedic consultation for her condition.

The Problem
When Mrs. Puri contacted Jiva Ayurveda, one of our doctors studied her medical history comprehensively, including her complete physical and mind test. It was discovered that she had been suffering from severe digestive disorder since ten years of age. She had chronic problems of elimination – she passed motion 2-3 times with a lot of difficulty. Gas, flatulence and acidity had been a permanent part of her life for many years. In addition to all this, she had been overweight for quite some time.

Her condition was diagnosed to be a result of liver dysfunction. The chronic problem of digestion had led to ama (toxins) formation in her body; these toxins had blocked her arteries and caused blockage in the circulatory system. In addition, acidic gases were putting unnecessary strain on her blood vessels, leading to increase in blood pressure.

The Treatment
Because we realize that chemicals create complications in the body – sooner or later, our main objective in this case was to help the patient come out of her habit of taking daily medicines. Jiva’s line of treatment was focused on:

Ama Pachan or elimination of toxins present inside the arteries and circulatory system through the use of herbal medicines.

Strengthening the liver through a regulated diet plan that contained foods that were cool and non-acidic in nature.

Pacification of the Vata and Pitta Doshas (Ayurvedic humors representing Air and Fire respectively) that were blocking the heart’s channels through Vata-Pitta Shamak Chikitsa.

Jiva did not prescribe a single medicine for controlling her blood pressure, as it was obvious that the root cause of her problem lied elsewhere.

“After discussing my case with Jiva Ayurveda, I realized
I had been unnecessarily taking daily tablets for my
BP problem. Jiva helped me discover that the real cause
of my high pressure was my faulty digestion. Through their
herbal medicines and simple diet plan, I was able to get my
condition under control in just seven months. Now, I
recommend Ayurvedic treatment to everyone I know. “

The Result
After seven months of taking Jiva’s medicines and following our customized diet plan, Mrs. Puri felt a remarkable improvement in her digestion. She could now pass motion comfortably and the problem of gas was almost non-existent now. Resultantly, her blood pressure levels also came back within the normal range and she felt no need to take her daily dose of BP tablets.

Humor is infectious. The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle or sneeze. When laughter is shared, it binds people together and increases happiness and intimacy. Laughter also triggers healthy physical changes in the body. It strengthens the immune system, boosts energy, diminishes pain, and protects us from the damaging effects of stress. Best of all, this priceless medicine is fun, free and easy to use.

Meet a Dedicated Ayurveda Enthusiast

Lilliana Flores Banavides of Mexico is one of the most ardent followers of Ayurveda, someone who swears by this natural way of life. Her dedication to Ayurveda is the reason why she keeps coming back to Jiva (she’s already been here three times). During her visits, Lilliana always makes it a point to bring in people from her country, with the intention of enlightening them on the benefits of the ancient science of healing. During a freewheeling chat, she speaks to us about her love for Ayurveda, Jiva and India.

What is the response to Ayurveda in Mexico?
Right now, Ayurvedic knowledge is not very massive there. It is only followed by a select group of people. However, we are witnessing a huge amount of interest in different kinds of alternative treatments, including Ayurveda. I am sure, with the right kind of promotional activities, we will be able to present the benefits of this science to a larger section of the Mexican society.

Have you adopted Ayurveda in your own life?
Ayurveda is a highly beneficial and interesting ancient knowledge system that should be adapted in our lives. It is not just effective in healing physical disorders, but also helps us in creating a better world. Personally, I am a huge Ayurveda lover and have adopted its principles in my life. I promote this science in my school and make efforts to bring students to Jiva. In fact, I have plans to invite Dr. Chauhan for a lecture in Mexico.

This is the third time you have brought a group of students to Jiva. What attracts you to this organization?
Dr. Partap Chauhan is the biggest reason why I come back again and again. He is not only an extraordinary doctor, but also a great human being. This is a rarely-found combination in our world today. Moreover, I have always enjoyed my stay at Jiva because of the love and affection that I get from people here. I would love to come here every year.

How have your fellow Mexicans found the experience of being at Jiva and India?
Initially, they were in a state of shock, which is quite natural because they witness an entirely different culture in this country. However, day by day, they begin to appreciate life here. About their stay at Jiva, I am sure they will take back very fond memories of the learning experience as well as the hospitality.

About 20 colleges affiliated to the Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences participated in the event, with over 300 BAMS students (interns and alumni) rooting for jobs with Jiva. The highlight of the event was a session by Jiva Ayurveda Director, Dr. Partap Chauhan, where he personally interacted with students on how they can utilize the principles of Ayurveda to establish a healthy and happy society in India.

We are very happy with the response from students. It’s good to have companies like Jiva come forward to carve careers of young doctors,” he said.

In Patiala, the campus recruitment session was held at Government Ayurvedic College on February 17, 2011. An event of this kind was organized in the college for the first time, and invited participation from about 100 students – both fresh graduates and alumni. The event generated a lot of excitement among students, who were keen to headstart their careers with an organization of repute. In fact, after a round of technical tests and interviews, a few doctors from the Patiala group have already joined the TMC.

Dr. Pardeep Kapil, Principal of Government Ayurvedic College, was quite upbeat about the event. “We were quite pleased to host the Jiva team, who helped our students find lucrative career opportunities in the field of Ayurveda. We intend to organize this kind of a session every year,” he said.

Don’t Suppress Migraine; Treat It!

You are having a great day at work; an important deal that you have worked so hard on is about to be finalized and the boss is very happy with you. Suddenly, that terrible Migraine headache strikes during a crucial meeting. You have to excuse yourself as the pain needs to be taken care of. You take your second painkiller of the day, grab a big mug of coffee and get back to the meeting room. However, before the medicine can show its effect, the pain has become unbearable, making it impossible for you to continue with the meeting. At such a crucial juncture, you end up asking for the remaining day off. The boss is not happy anymore, because this has become a regular habit with you. After today’s scene, with the deal in trouble, your job too seems to be in serious trouble.

Anyone who’s ever had Migraine knows that it is a nightmare. It comes with debilitating pain and nausea that can often keep you confined to a dark room with pillows over your head for hours on end. As a result, most Migraine sufferers are unable to work or take care of their family while experiencing the pain.

With Migraine comes the "where did the day go" effect, primarily caused by the persistent use of strong painkillers. Even as these medicines manage to suppress the pains, they are not successful in providing long-term relief to the patient. Additionally, their continued use further weakens the body and makes it dependant on these chemicals. With suppression of pains being the only treatment option available in modern medicine, what can Migraine patients do to ensure their complete wellbeing? The solution lies in Ayurveda, the world’s oldest system of medicine, which provides holistic healing in the severest of Migraine cases.

The Underdiagnosed Disease
Migraine, known as Ardhavbhedak (meaning ‘half region of the head’) in Ayurveda, is widely regarded as one of the most underdiagnosed, misdiagnosed and undertreated diseases. According to researchers, most migraines are misdiagnosed as sinus or tension-type headaches. Additionally, less than half of all cases are diagnosed and receive treatment. Sadly, there is no test to confirm the diagnosis of migraines. The only way you can do so is by clearly explaining your situation (esp. the type of pain you are experiencing) to a doctor.

What is Migraine
A common neurological syndrome, Migraine is characterized by altered bodily perceptions, severe pounding headaches, nausea and irritability. This pounding or pain usually begins in the forehead, the side of the head or around the eyes and gradually gets worse. Bright lights or loud noises can worsen the condition. The headache can last for two hours or even up to two or three days.

Common Triggers
According to online research, 85% of people suffering from Migraine could report something that triggers the attack. These include weather (up to 50%), missing a meal (40%), stress (about 50%), alcohol (50%) and certain types of food items (45%). About 50% of women reported menstrual periods as a significant trigger. Additionally, allergic reactions, exposure to loud noises or certain odors, smoking, or long exposures to computer screens/televisions could lead to Migraine attacks.

The Ayurvedic View
The traditional science of Ayurveda does not regard Migraine as a case of prolonged headaches. On the contrary, it considers this condition to be caused by deep-rooted problems, including a sensitive nervous system and impaired digestion.

Improper diet and lifestyle causes aggravation of Pitta (Ayurvedic humor representing Fire) in the body. In an aggravated state, Pitta impairs digestion, leading to production of digestive impurities (known as ama). This ama gets stored in the manovahi strotas (mind channels), thereby becoming the cause for pains in migraine.

A sensitive nervous system lowers the ojas (energy) in the body. Ojas is the essence of all body tissues and provides strength to the nervous system and body. If you have a strong nervous system, you are able to fight against problems and carry on with your work with a healthy mind. Lowering of ojas causes migraine-like problems.

How does Ayurveda treat Migraine
Ayurveda does not propagate short-term pain relief for Migraine patients. Rather, it believes in cleaning the body from within and eradicating the disease from its roots. Ayurvedic treatment of Migraine therefore is centered on the pacification of Pitta Dosha, and restoration of digestive function in the body. Nervine tonics are also recommended to enhance the ojas, relax the mind and give strength to the nervous system. Patients are given herbal medicines as well as customized diet and lifestyle plans in accordance with their body constitution and the root cause of disease. When the body’s digestion is enhanced, ama production gets controlled, leading to cleansing of manovahi strotas. As a result, patients can get long-term relief from the most chronic of pains.

Recommended Diet & Lifestyle

Avoid hot, spicy foods, fermented foods, white sugar, white flour products, and sour or citrus fruits, because they aggravate the Pitta in your body.

Drink more water and eat more fiber, fruits and vegetables, and whole grains

Avoid excessive sugar or salt, refined foods, animal products (meats and dairy), caffeine, tea, and alcohol, as these items will further lead to aggravation of Pitta.

Avoid direct exposure to the sun, as migraine headaches are predominantly a Pitta disorder and can be triggered by the hot sun.

Head massage with Bhringraj Oil is also beneficial. This massage gives a calming effect to your nervous system.

Headaches caused due to tension and worry can be alleviated through deep breathing and relaxation, especially in a lying down position in a quiet place. Inverted postures, or those where the head is lowered briefly, increase oxygen to the brain and can reduce headache-causing strain.

Home Remedies

If there is a burning sensation, apply a paste of ground clay or sandalwood powder mixed with rose water.

When the headache is due to inflamed sinuses, inhale steam with vinegar added to the water.

Mix ¼ teaspoon of clove powder with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon oil. Apply this paste on the affected area for 20-30 minutes.

Panchakarma
Ayurvedic treatment therapies, known as Panchakarma, are also effective in treating Migraine pains. Nasya (administration of herbal oils into the nostrils) and Shriodhara (head massage) are especially highly recommended to such patients. Both procedures are aimed at removing the cause of the headache and the pain.

By Dr. Partap Chauhan

Migraine – A Jiva Case Study

Mrs. Kulvinder Kaur (name changed) is a 35-year-old housewife from Bhopal, India. For the last 15 years of her life, she has been suffering from severe, persistent headaches, characterized by a feeling of pulsation in the temporal region. She had tried all kinds of treatment – Allopathic, Homeopathic and Ayurvedic – but to no avail. Many a time, she ended up taking injections to pacify the intense pains. The one relief she had was that, unlike most cases of Migraine, change of weather or tension did not have any effect on her condition.

Repeated bouts of constipation and severe lack of appetite were other conditions that she was suffering from. Expectedly, these apparently minor problems got sidelined in her pursuit of treatment for Migraine.

Even though she was highly anxious about initiating another new line of treatment, Mrs. Kaur called the Jiva TeleMedicine Center after watching Dr. Partap Chauhan’s TV show. One of Jiva’s doctors analyzed her case in detail after taking her complete medical history and symptomatic information. The analysis indicated that she had a history of severe digestive problems, which had led to production of ama (toxins) in her body. These toxins had accumulated in her mind’s channels, causing pains of Migraine. In this case, problems of constipation and lack of appetite were the other clear indications of ama accumulation.

What did Jiva suggest?
Ayurveda considers ama to be the mother of all diseases. Even though toxins may not show any immediate impact on the body, over time, they accumulate in the body’s channels and lead to graver problems. The same applied to Mrs. Kaur’s case as well.

Jiva created a customized line of treatment for her, which started with herbal medicines for pacification of Pitta Dosha (Ayurvedic humor representing Fire), which was aggravated in her case. Secondly, the treatment focused on elimination of toxins present inside her mind channels, so that her pains could subside. For this, she was recommended a strict anti-Pitta diet that contained fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains. All kinds of spicy and fermented foods were strictly prohibited. Additionally, she was recommended simple breathing exercises to increase oxygen supply to the brain and relieve headaches.

The Result
Within two months of treatment, Mrs. Kaur felt about 20% improvement in her condition. She has been taking medicines for six months now and there has been no more complaint of pain. Nonetheless, she is continuing with the medication to keep her digestion in balance.

“Before I came to Jiva, I had lost faith that my condition could be treated. I was quite surprised to discover that digestive problems were the root cause of Migraine pains. With Jiva’s Ayurvedic medicines and tailor-made diet plan, I have not only managed to get the pains in control, but have also started feeling better overall.”

Listening to soft music, use of desired aromas and a gentle head massage is nice way to relax after the daylong hard work. Our hectic schedules during the day lead to an aggravation of Vata (Ayurvedic humor representing Air), which causes stress and anxiety. Relaxation techniques such as soft music, aromas, etc., pacify Vata and refresh the mind for the next day.

Is Obesity weighing you down?
Get the Perfect Solution with Ayurveda

Why do so many people fail at losing weight? Is it because they are addicted to food? No. Is it because they are lazy? No. Is it because they aren’t good at exercising? No. Failure at weight loss stems primarily from ignorance – about the risks of being overweight and the reasons we actually gain weight.

The condition of being overweight, known as Obesity in medical parlance, is soon becoming an epidemic. With more than 500 million clinically obese people worldwide, incidences of diabetes, heart disease, stroke, hypertension, and high cholesterol associated with Obesity are also on a constant rise. According to global estimates, Obesity is the reason for about 80% of type 2 diabetes, about 70% of cardiovascular diseases, and 42% of breast and colon cancers.

The Alarm Bells are Ringing!
In 2008, 1.5 billion adults, 20 and older, were overweight. Of these over 200 million men and nearly 300 million women were obese.
65% of the world's population lives in countries where overweight and obesity kills more people than underweight.
Nearly 43 million children under the age of five were overweight in 2010.
Unless action is taken, by 2020 there will be 5 million deaths attributable to overweight and obesity, compared to 3 million now.
According to a 2007 survey, approximately 12% males and 16% females were Obese in India.

What is Obesity?
Obesity or being overweight is a condition characterized by excessive storage of fat in the body. When the body’s calorie intake exceeds the amount of calories burned, it leads to the storage of excess calories in the form of body fat. Some of the common symptoms of this disease include increased body fat, breathlessness on exertion, lethargy, excessive sweating with bad odor, and fatigue.

The Overhyped Solutions
Due to the expanse of the media, there is so much misinformation on fitness and weight loss that it becomes hard for a person to cut through all the junk and find out what really works. Also, what works for one person might not work for another, since everyone's body and lifestyle is different.

Frustrated because of their inability to lose weight, most people end up opting for the overhyped solutions – slimming programs, crash diet courses, weight loss instruments, surgical operations, etc. that ‘assure’ you will lose a certain number of kilos in a certain number of days. These programs have been designed to help you lose weight fast. However, in the long-term, they cause health complications such as weakening of the immune system, heart palpitations and cardiac stress, overexertion, loss of heart muscles, and damage to blood vessels, among other problems. These unhealthy ways of losing weight are short-term solutions that ultimately end up weakening the body from inside.

So, what do you do? Where do you turn for help? Well… Ayurveda presents the perfect solution to your problem.

The Ayurvedic View
In Ayurveda, Obesity is known as Medorog, a disease caused by the aggravation of Kapha. Kapha is an Ayurvedic humor representing Water and Earth; it is dense, heavy, slow, sticky, wet and cold in nature. It governs all structure and lubrication in the mind and body apart from controlling weight and formation of all the seven tissues - nutritive fluids, blood, fat, muscles, bones, marrow and reproductive tissues.

In a balanced state, Kapha gives nourishment to these tissues through various micro channels. However, when it is aggravated, Kapha leads to production of toxins in the body. These toxins are heavy and dense in nature and accumulate in weaker channels of the body, causing their blockage. In the case of an obese person, toxins accumulate in Medovahi Srotas (fat channels), thereby leading to an increase in the production of fat tissue (Medo Dhatu). When the body produces more fat tissues, it leads to an increase in weight.

According to Ayurveda, the treatment of Obesity cannot be generalized for every patient. The identification of the root cause of disease is paramount to providing a long-term solution.

Know your Obesity Better – Prakriti or Vikriti
Ayurveda says, Obesity can be the result of Prakriti (your nature) or Vikriti (an imbalance). Once you understand the real cause behind your problem, you will be in a better position to deal with it.

Prakriti
There are two distinct, yet inter-related, classifications of a person in Ayurveda. The first relates to the body, and the second to the mind. Your nature is determined by this combination of body and mind types, and is known as your Prakriti. Knowing your Prakriti helps you to tailor a personal diet and lifestyle that can prevent disease and physical disorders, and obtain peace of mind. It provides you with an understanding of your basic physical and psychological nature, and how to keep it in balance with your surroundings. This is the key to maintaining health.

Every human has varying degrees of the three doshas or Ayurvedic humors – Vata (air), Pitta (fire) and Kapha (water). People with a predominant Kapha Dosha tend to have a heavy or large build. They are often overweight, gain weight easily and have high muscle development (a plump and round structure). These people have a tendency to put on weight easily; in fact, they can put on weight simply by drinking excess water! People of the Kapha type can never be skinny, as opposed to Vata people, who are lean and fit by nature. Even if a Vata person eats six meals in a day, he will not put on too much weight.

Before you jump onto conclusions about your excess weight gain, it is important for you to know your predominant dosha. You can do so simply by taking the VPK Test. Once you know you have Kapha prakriti, you can be sure that Obesity is not a disease for you. Never forget that it is not possible for you to change your elemental nature, and so there is no point of being so worried about your weight. People with a Kapha body type can easily keep their weight under control by taking care of their diet (eating more of fresh food items, fruits and vegetables, etc.) and exercising regularly. Read more about dietary guidelines for Kapha.

Vikriti
In this case, Obesity is caused due to Vikriti or an imbalance in the body. A common myth amongst people is that this disease is the result of excessive consumption of heavy foods or sweets. In reality, a balanced intake of heavy or sweet foods is absolutely acceptable to the body when your digestion is healthy. On the contrary, if your digestive power is weak, your body will not be able to digest even light foods. These undigested food particles lead to creation of ama (toxins) in the body. Accumulation of these toxins in the fat carrying channels finally results in Obesity. In patients suffering from this disease, any food that is consumed eventually converts into fat, aggravating the problem even further.

At the Mind Level
According to Ayurveda, in certain individuals, Obesity can also be the result of disturbances at the mind level. Depression, anxiety, emotional trauma and stress often prompt people to eat more than they need (referred to as ‘comfort eating’). Eating more leads to indigestion and formation of ama. It also increases Tamas (ignorance) in the mind, making the person lazy, sleepy and inactive, and reducing the ability to think clearly and take intelligent decisions.

The Perfect Solution
Ayurveda provides the perfect solution to the problem of Obesity. The treatment starts with cleansing of fat accumulated in the body’s channels using herbal medicines. It then focuses on maintaining the body’s digestive fire. Regular exercises are recommended to keep the body fit and mobile. Ayurvedic treatment therapies, known as Panchakarma, can also be quite effective in eliminating toxins from the body. At the mind level, the solution to this problem lies in enhancing Sattva (purity) by eating fresh foods and thinking positive. Additionally, the patient should try to remove the cause of depression by having a personal counseling session with a doctor.

Certain Ayurvedic products, such as the Jiva Sattva Obesity Healthcare Pack, have been specifically created for Obesity patients. The pack contains herbal powders, tablets and teas that not only clean the fat carrying channels, but also work at the mind level to provide long-term relief to the patient.

Diet & Lifestyle Advice

Avoid high carbohydrates like polished rice and potato.

Avoid oily and fried foods, processed foods, fatty foods like butter, cheese, whole-milk yogurt, cream, chocolate, etc.

Have more bitter vegetables like bitter gourd and the bitter variety of drumsticks

Replace refined flour with whole-wheat flour and rice with brown rice or parboiled rice

Increase intake of fruits, salads and vegetables.

It is very important to engage in daily exercise in the form of walking, jogging, swimming or any other physical activity that is not competitive.

Try to take a walk in the morning and again in the early evening, working up to 30 minutes or more each time. Increase physical activity by doing more physical chores during the day.

Some Home Remedies

Take 1 cup of warm water with 1 teaspoon each of lime juice and honey and a pinch of black pepper. Have this on an empty stomach twice a day.

Mix powdered long pepper, black pepper and dried ginger root in equal quantities. Have ½ teaspoon of this twice a day with lukewarm water.

Boil 7-8 mint leaves in 1 cup of water for five minutes, and let it cool. Add 1 teaspoon honey and a pinch of black pepper to the cooled mint water and drink it. You can have this preparation 2-3 times a day.

Obesity – A Jiva Case Study

The Jiva TeleMedicine Center has successfully treated hundreds of Obesity cases, offering long-term solutions to several patients. One such interesting case is that of Mr. Kishan Chawla (name changed), a 35-year-old Obesity patient from Jodhpur, India.

At a height of 5 foot 5 inches, Mr. Chawla weighed 92 kilos – a Body Mass Index that indicated he was overweight. He had been obese for 10 years, but had not found success with any of the treatments he had tried. He had also enrolled into one of the crash dieting programs, but the result lasted only for about six months and he started acquiring weight again. He also had off and on problems of constipation, gas formation, a feeling of lethargy, and memory loss. And, to top it all, he was diagnosed with Hypothyroidism three years back.

Mr. Chawla’s weight had become a constant source of embarrassment for him and when he called the Jiva TMC, he was all set to go under the knife for a liposuction surgery.

Jiva’s Analysis
One of Jiva’s doctors analyzed his case in detail after taking his complete medical history and symptomatic information. The doctor also helped him understand the difference between losing weight naturally and the unhealthy techniques of crash dieting, etc.

Mr. Chawla’s analysis indicated that his problem was caused by the aggravation of Kapha Dosha (Ayurvedic humor representing Water). The aggravated Kapha had led to the production of ama (toxins), which was heavy and dense in nature. Accumulation of these heavy toxins in the fat carrying channels had resulted in excessive production of fat tissues, which was the primary cause of weight gain in his case. Additionally, his digestive power was also weak, and this was the reason for constipation and gas formation in his body.

The Treatment
Ayurveda works on the root cause of disease by personalizing treatment according to the patient’s body type. In Mr. Chawla’s case, the root cause was aggravated Kapha. So, the treatment focused on pacification of Kapha through customized herbal medicines, dietary guidelines and lifestyle recommendations. Secondly, the treatment worked on cleansing the fat carrying channels by eliminating accumulated toxins. Because the patient had a weak digestion, he was also administered Deepan and Pachan treatment aimed at enhancing his digestive fire. In addition to this, he was given nervine tonics for relaxation of mind.

The Result
Within two months of treatment, Mr. Chawla lost eight kilos of weight. His problem of constipation and gas formation was cured completely. He also started feeling active and confident about himself. He is continuing with the medication to lower his weight further and keep it under control.

“I was ready for a liposuction surgery to cut down my excess fat when someone recommended Jiva to me. The best part about my Ayurvedic treatment was that it was personalized to my specific needs. The medicines, diet and lifestyle recommended to me helped in losing eight kilos in just two months. Today, I can confidently recommend Ayurveda to all Obesity patients.”

Attachment to material things and mundane desires causes psychic disorders. Too much focus on self often leads to attachment, which comes in the form of craving - wanting things one does not have - and ignorance - craving without knowing the futility of the wanting. Remember, the art of living well requires you to find out what you need, and not what you want.

GERMINADOS COMO HACERLOS

OCARINA - Roses for Joang Ling-- Cómo germinan los fríjoles? Desarrollo: Selecciona un frasco de vidrio con boca ancha; puede ser en el que viene la mermelada, la mayonesa o el café. Le viertes agua y luego tomas una pequeña cantidad, no muy gruesa, de algódón y la colocas de tapa. El algodón debe apenas tocar el agua, debe mantenerse en contacto pero sin que se humedezca mucho. Tomas un fríjol, lo lavas y lo colocas encima del algodón. El fríjol poco a poco comienza a germinar; además de ser emocionante ver cada uno de sus pasos, los puedes ir pintando. Si colocas varios frascos con fríjoles, será maravilloso seguir la carrera del que crezca más rápido. Para variar el juego esto mismo lo puedes hacer con arvejas, lentejas o garbanzos. También, coloca una papa dentro de un frasco de vidrio con agua y verás cómo con el transcurrir de los días comienza a germinar y a echar raíces. De la misma manera, puedes conseguirte un manojo de zanahorias con sus hojas, córtalas dejando tan sólo dos o tres centímetros de zanahoria y colócalas en un platón plano con agua. Al cabo de unos días tendrás un bosque de zanahorias. Fuente: Arango M., Infante E., López, M. (2000). Juguemos con los niños - Actividades para estimular el desarrollo entre 1 y 7 años. Tomo 3.

NUECES - SUS PROPIEDADES

uploaded by saitanlua at youtube.com

NUECES Se trata del fruto seco más estudiado por los científicos que han llegado a la conclusión de que su consumo moderado ayuda a proteger al organismo de enfermedades coronarias ya que reduce los níveles de colesterol total. Las nueces son ricas sobre todo en grasas poliinsaturadas de tipo omega 3, mientras que el ácido oleico (grasa monoinsaturada) sólo representa alrededor del 15%. Además, gracias a su contenido en vitaminas del grupo B, están indicadas para aliviar la fatiga, el estrés o el síndrome premenstrual. Las avellanas y las nueces son los frutos secos que muestran un mayor contenido en ácido fólico, seguidos de los piñones, los pistachos y las almendras; conviene recordar que los requerimientos diarios de ácido fólico, para una persona adulta, son del orden de los 400 µg. Otra pecualiaridad, las nueces son el segundo alimento más rico en antioxidantes de todos los alimentos vegetales analizados en un estudio dirigido por Halvorsen, un investigador noruego, en el 2002. • Calorías: 688 • Proteínas: 14 gr • Grasas: 59 gr • Hidratos de carbono: 4 gr • Fibra: 5 gr • Vitamina E: 2.92 mg • Fitoesteroles: 72.0 mg • Calcio: 94 mg • Colesterol: 0 mg

BEBER AGUA

uploaded by saitanlua at youtube.com

9 RAZONES PARA TOMAR AGUA Más del 60% de nuestro cuerpo está formado por agua. Este líquido es de vital importancia en la mayoría de las funciones que desempeña nuestro cuerpo. Diariamente el cuerpo humano elimina un promedio de 2 litros de agua. Lo justo es que devolvamos esta cantidad para mantener el equilibrio. Consumir la cantidad recomendada de agua ofrece las siguiente ventajas: 1. Pérdida peso. Consumir agua natural en lugar de refrescos hará que consumamos una menor cantidad de calorías. Además el agua da la sensación de estar llenos, lo que evitará que consumamos alimentos con poco valor nutritivo entre comidas (papas fritas, galletas, dulces). 2. Mejoramiento de la salud de corazón. Estudios realizados por la American Journal of Epidemiology demuestran que quien toma más de cinco vasos de agua al día tiene 41% menos posibilidades de sufrir un ataque cardiaco. 3. Aumento de energía. Estar deshidratado produce fatiga, debilidad muscular, vértigo, entre otros síntomas. 4. Menos dolores de cabeza. La deshidratación es la causa principal de los dolores de cabeza. 5. Una piel saludable. Con el adecuado consumo de vitamita E y de agua nuestra piel se mantiene en óptimas condiciones. 6. Soluciona problemas digestivos. El consumo de agua reduce la acidez estomacal. Si además se consume una buena cantidad de fibra, la salud de nuestro aparato digestivo mejorará notablemente. 7. Limpia nuestro cuerpo. El agua ayuda a que se liberen toxinas o productos de desecho que están en los tejidos y la sangre. 8. Reduce la probabilidad de cáncer. Consumir agua suficiente reduce hasta un 45% la probabilidad de tener cáncer de colon y un 50% el cáncer de vejiga. 9. Mejora el rendimiento físico. Al hacer ejercicio el cuerpo pierde gran cantidad de agua. Por lo que es necesario reponerla para garantizar el óptimo desempeño. La cantidad de agua que consumiremos dependerá de nuestras necesidades específicas. Dos litros son sólo una cantidad promedio. Para algunas personas será suficiente un litro y otras necesitarán de tres. Lo importante es que "escuchemos" a nuestro cuerpo y consumamos la cantidad que nos hace sentir mejor. Recordemos que algunas frutas y verduras están conformados por un alto porcentaje de agua. Así que si no quieres consumirla directamente todo el tiempo tienes una alternativa saludable en este tipo de alimentos. Por último, se recomienda que el consumo sea constante. Cada quien establece los intervalos que mejor se adapten a su ritmo de vida.

ALIMENTOS QUE COMBATEN EL ENVEJECIMIENTO

uploaded by saitanlua at youtube.com

Alimentos que combaten el envejecimiento A continuación reproducimos la dieta antienvejecimiento definitiva publicada esta semana por el periódico británico Daily Mirror. Tomar pescado azul: varias actrices de Hoolywood lo toman por recomendación del Dr. Nicholas Perricone, quien recomienda a sus pacientes tomar gran cantidad de este pescado debido a que las grasas esenciales que contienen proporcionan unos antioxidantes buenos para la piel y eliminan los radicales libres que causan las arrugas y el envejecimiento prematuro de la piel. Las mejores fuentes de estos ácidos grasos esenciales son el salmón, la caballa, los filetes de atún fresco y las sardinas. El elevado contenido en proteínas de estos pescados también ayuda mantener la piel firme y, además, te mantienen delgado. Beber agua: el principal agente antienvejecimiento es el agua. Se dice a menudo, pero es que el agua es realmente fundamental para mantener una buena salud y un buen aspecto. Recuerda que el alcohol deshidrata la piel, dándole un aspecto gris, seco y arrugado. Beber agua produce el efecto contrario, reafirma la piel y elimina las toxinas que dan lugar a un cutis sin apagado y con arrugas. El agua del tiempo es lo mejor, pero hay otros líquidos rejuvenecedores como la leche de soja, que según las investigaciones ayuda a acelerar la producción de colágeno. Tomar fruta rejuvenecedora: si quieres parecer más joven, toma mucha fruta. En primer lugar está el kiwi, una de las fuentes más ricas de de vitamina C. Esta vitamina es fantástica para la piel porque ayuda a fabricar colágeno y elimina las toxinas ue producen el envejecimiento. Los aguacates también son fundamentales, ya que contienen vitamina A y E, muy eficaces para combatir las arrugas. Trocea uno en una ensalada o sándwich. Tienen bastantes calorías y grasa pero es un tipo de grasa saludable (insaturada) que, en realidad, acelera el metabolismo. Toma una ración de bayas todos los días. Los arándanos, las moras y las grosellas protegen el cuerpo del envejecimiento debido a su elevado contenido de unos antioxidantes denominados fitoquímicos. Por último, toma también algunas ciruelas y uvas pasas. Hidratos de carbono rejuvenecedores: los cereales de avena son un buen modo de empezar el día y parecer más jóvenes. Además de proporcionarte energía para toda la mañana, los estudios indican que los cereales de avena contienen unos niveles elevados de un mineral llamado ácido silícico que reafirma las células de la piel; también ralentizan a aparición de arrugas. El pan también es bueno para la piel, pero no cualquier pan, toma el de multicereales en lugar del blanco. Está lleno de selenio, que combate el proceso de envejecimiento conservando la elasticidad de la piel. Superalimentos rejuvenecedores:

(1) Almendras: llenas de ácidos grasos omega-3 y proteínas, que ayudan ala reparación de la piel. Además, son una buena fuente de vitamina E, que previene las arrugas. Consejo: toma un puñado todas las tardes.

(2) Aceite de oliva: un estudio reciente, publicado en la revista Journal of the American College of Nutrition, observó la relación existente entre el aceite de oliva y las arrugas. Consejo: cambia el aceite vegetal por el de oliva y utilízalo para aderezar las ensaladas.

(3) Judías adzuki: son una gran fuente de zinc, un mineral que ayuda a la reparación de la piel; el zinc es bueno también para el acné. Consejo: cómpralas en lata en el supermercado y añádelas a ensaladas y revueltos.

(4) Albaricoques: están llenos de luteina, un antioxidante que, según científicos de la Universidad de Harvard combate el envejecimiento de la piel por el sol. Consejo: toma unos cuentos como aperitivo entre comidas, o frescos troceados en los cereales.

(5) espinacas: también son una buena fuente de luteina, que protege la piel del daño del sol y las manchas solares. Consejo: añade unas cuantas a un revuelto o úsalas como sustituto de la lechuga en ensaladas.

(6) Tomates: su ingrediente mágico es la licopena, un potente antioxidante. Además de reducir el riesgo de ciertos cánceres, la licopena protege la piel de los efectos del sol y hace que se mantenga joven. Consejo: tómalos en rodajas en los sándwiches o añádelos a la ensalada.

(7) Brécol: es ideal para luchar contra los radicales libres, sustancias dañinas que se encuentran en el ambiente y nos envejecen, como la polución. Consejo: añádelo troceado a revueltos, platos de curry e incluso a la lasaña. (8) Vino tinto: impulsa la circulación hacia la piel, además de estar lleno de antioxidantes. Consejo: toma una copa de vino tinto unas cuantas noches a la semana.

PROPIEDADES "AGUA OXIGENADA"

El Agua Oxigenada se desarrolló en la década de 1920 por científicos, con el objetivo de contener problemas de infecciones y gangrena en los soldados en el frente de batalla. En la Segunda Guerra Mundial disminuyó el número de amputaciones. Existen distintas aguas oxigenadas que son destinadas a diferentes usos. El agua oxigenada se mide por volúmenes. Aquella de uso medicinal es el agua oxigenada de 10 volúmenes. Objetivo del invento -Barato -Fácil Transporte -Fácil Almacenamiento -Fácil Utilización -Sin efectos colaterales. En una solución al 3%, es uno de los mas potentes desinfectantes que existen. ¿Porque está tan poco difundida su utilización? ¿Porque no se difunde su uso? El agua oxigenada es simple de usar, se almacena fácilmente y puede ser usada con varios fines. Sin embargo no es rentable desde el punto de vista de los laboratorios que prefieren otro tipo de desinfectantes, etc... La eficacia doméstica del Agua Oxigenada.

LAS MARAVILLAS DE LA UVA

uploaded by saitanlua at youtube.com

LAS MARAVILLAS DE LA UVA EL VINO UN BRINDIS A LA SALUD Un grupo de amigos celebra el encuentro. Tazas de vino son levantadas en un gesto festivo y voces animadas repiten juntas el viejo brindis: " Salud!" Los saludos nunca fueron tan verdaderos! Pues es eso lo que médicos e investigadores están descubriendo. Una copa de vino esconde más que sabor y placer, es una fuente de salud! Las uvas salen de las parras y van derecho a las bancadas de los laboratorios, consultorios y hospitales y se transforman en receta médica! El vino ayuda, pero en la dosis correcta! Es el llamado consumo moderado: una copa de 100ml para las mujeres y dos para los hombres. Los médicos firman abajo! Para entender ese misterio, es necesario conocer dos elementos de nombres extraños, contenidos en el vino tinto: el resveratrol y los flavonóides . El resveratrol, elimina las plaquetas que provocan coágulos y tapan las arterias. Los flavonóides son antioxidantes, inhiben la formación de los radicales libres, que provocan el envejecimiento de las células y por consecuencia, dejan el organismo más vulnerable a enfermedades. La conclusión a que se llega es que, lo que hay de más importante en el vino tinto,no es el alcohol, y sí los flavonóides , explica el cardiólogo de la INCOR. Pero, si el vino hace tanto bien para la salud, y lo que importa en él es la uva y no el alcohol, ¿por qué no adoptar, tambien, el jugo de uva? JUGO DE UVA Y VINO TRAEN LOS MISMOS BENEFÍCIOS PARA EL CORAZON, DICE USP La tesis de doctorado de la cardióloga y médica asistente del INCOR (Instituto del Corazón de la FM-USP), Silmara Regina Coimbra, comprobó que tanto el vino tinto cuanto el jugo de uva, provocan el mismo efecto sobre el endotélio (tejido que forra internamente los vasos sanguineos), aumentando su dilatación, frente a un estímulo. Según la cardióloga Silmara Coimbra, la principal conclusión de este trabajo, es que el jugo de uva puede proteger el indivíduo contra la enfermedad arterial coronaria sin los riesgos asociados al consumo de alcohol. BENEFICIOS DEL JUGO DE UVA La tradición atribuye al jugo de uva las más elogiosas expresiones como: sangre vegetal, leche vegetal y seiva viva . El jugo de uva contiene más calorias que la leche, una cierta analogia que puede ser llevada más lejos: la composición del jugo de uva muestra sorprendentes semejanzas con la de la leche materna. Es, pues, un alimento privilegiado para los períodos de "reconstrucción de la fatiga, De la anemia, de la convalescencia". El azúcar del jugo de uva está compuesto por glucosa e frutosa, es directamente asimilable, no exige ningún esfuerzo a los órganos digestivos, y es por tal razón aconsejable para la alimentación de los enfermos atacados por la fiebre. Del punto de vista terapeutico, se trata de uno de los más preciosos jugos. El jugo de uva es estimulador de las funciones hepáticas, constituyendo la base de remedios farmaceuticos para el hígado (esta función es desempeñada no solo por el jugo de uva, sino también por la uva y hojas de la parra). Para mantener las arterias jóvenes, tome jugo de uva diariamente. Investigaciones realizadas en la Universidad de Florida revelan que las sustancias químicas encontradas en las uvas ayudan a dilatar las arterias y en consecuencia, pueden reducir la presión sanguinea. El secreto de las uvas y del jugo de uva en el combate al envejecimiento es simple y poderoso: las uvas contienen 20 antioxidantes conocidos, que funcionan en conjunto para combatir los radicales libres que promueven las enfermedades y el envejecimiento de acuerdo con investigadores de la Universidad de Califórnia, en Davis. Los antioxidantes se encuentran en las cáscaras y semillas y cuanto más vibrante es el color de la cáscara, mayor su poder antioxidante, lo que significa que las uvas rojas y rosadas y sus jugos serian los mas poderosos. La uva roja posee alto contenido del antioxidante quercetina. La cáscara de uva contiene resveratrol, que comprobadamente inhibe el agrupamento y aumenta el colesterol HDL (colesterol bueno). Los antioxidantes presentes en los jugos de uva tienen actividades anticoagulantes, inhiben la oxidación del colesterol HDL y dilatan los vasos sanguineos.

PLATANO - BANANA ( SUS PROPIEDADES)

uploaded by saitanlua at youtube.com

El plátano es una fruta de agradable sabor que gusta a todos. Debido a su contenido de azúcares naturales, en combinación con su fibra, conforma una gran fuente de energía. Está comprobado que la ingesta de dos plátanos es suficiente para realizar un arduo trabajo durante una hora y media, es por ello que el plátano es la fruta por excelencia de los mejores atletas a nivel mundial. Además, debemos reconocer que esta maravillosa fruta cuenta también con otras propiedades, las cuales traen grandes beneficios para nuestra salud, por lo cual es indispensable incluirla en nuestra alimentación diaria.Por ejemplo: Alivia los síntomas pre-menstruales: Al contener vitamina B6, el plátano estabiliza los niveles de glucosa en la sangre, que pueden afectar dichos síntomas. Al consumir uno o dos plátanos durante ese periódo de tiempo no será necesario recurrir al uso de las píldoras. Ayuda a combatir la anemia: El plátano estimula la producción de hemoglobina de la sangre debido a su alto contenido de hierro. Evita el estreñimiento: Para ayudar a restablecer el normal funcionamiento intestinal se debe incluir en nuestra alimentación diaria el consumo de plátanos, además de otras frutas que contengan fibra. Regula el sistema nervioso: Por su gran contenido de vitamina B el plátano actúa positivamente sobre los nervios. Contra la picadura de mosquitos: Para aliviar la inflamación e hinchazón producida por esta picadura, es recomendable frotarnos la zona afectada con la parte interna de la cáscara de plátano. El resultado es extraordinario. Para reducir las verrugas: Los especialistas en medicina alternativa aconsejan para estos casos aplicar, sobre el área a tratar, la parte interior de la cáscara de plátano y sujetarla cuidadosamente con una venda o esparadrapo. Para aquellas personas que sufren de depresión: El plátano contiene triptofano, una proteína que el organismo convierte en serotonina, sustancia química conocida por sus efectos relajantes y que influye positivamente en el estado anímico.

LA MENOPAUSIA La Menopausia o la "Segunda Adolescencia" es la época de mayor crecimiento espiritual en la mujer y nos ayuda a entender que la felicidad depende de nosotras mismas. Es el momento de encontrarnos con nuestro YO, de aprender a conocer lo que realmente nos gusta como por ejemplo, cursos de literatura, pintura, o música, yoga, reuniones con las amigas para "filosofar sobre la vida" o solo para tejer, clases de baile o montar en bicicleta, escribir un libro de cocina o una novela secreta, en fin, es momento de hacer eso que siempre soñaste.

13 CONSEJOS DE VIDA

CONSEJOS DE VIDA

INFARTO FEMENINO

uploaded by saitanlua at youtube.com

INFARTO FEMENINO Paso, entonces a resumirles algunos puntos:

1. Tengan en cuenta que sus síntomas probablemente no se parecerán en nada a los que padecen los hombres. Yo, por ejemplo, sentí el dolor en el esternón y la quijada. Se dice que muchas más mujeres que hombres mueren en su primer (y último) ataque cardíaco porque no identifican los síntomas y/o los confunden con los de una indigestión. Entonces, toman un digestivo y luego se van a la cama esperando que la molestia desaparezca durante la noche. También, porque -por razones culturales- las mujeres estamos acostumbradas a tolerar el dolor y la incomodidad más que los hombres. Queridas amigas: Quizá sus síntomas no sean iguales a los míos, pero, por favor, no pierdan el tiempo. LLAMEN a la AMBULANCIA, si sienten que su cuerpo experimenta algo 'extraño'. Cada quien conoce el estado natural (normal) de su cuerpo. Más vale una 'falsa emergencia' a no atreverse a llamar y perder la vida...

2. Noten que dije 'llamen a los Paramédicos/Ambulanc ia'. AMIGAS, el tiempo es importante, no traten de manejar ustedes ni dejen que sus esposos o familiares las lleven al hospital.Ademá s de que nadie está en condiciones de manejar sin que los nervios lo traicionen, sus síntomas pueden agravarse camino al hospital y complicar las cosas. Tampoco es recomendable Llamar AL DOCTOR para que venga a la casa. Además de perder minutos preciosos, pocos médicos llevan en su carro el equipo 'salvavidas' necesario en estos casos; la ambulancia, sí está totalmente equipada. Principalmente, tienen el oxígeno que necesitarás de inmediato. En todo caso, el hospital notificará a tu doctor después.

3. No crean que no pueden padecer un ataque cardíaco porque su colesterol es normal o 'nunca han tenido problemas cardíacos'. Se ha descubierto que el colesterol por sí solo (a menos que sea excesivo) raramente es la causa de un ataque cardíaco. Los ataques al corazón son el resultado de un stress prolongado que hace que nuestro sistema segregue toda clase de hormonas dañinas que inflaman las arterias y tejido cardíaco. Por otro lado, las mujeres que están entrando en la menopausia o ya la pasaron, pierden la protección que les brindaban los estrógenos, por lo que corren igual riesgo de padecer problemas cardíacos que los hombres.

ESPARRAGOS PARA EL CANCER

uploaded by saitanlua at youtube.com

ESPARRAGOS PARA EL CANCER Segun el descubrimiento de Richard R.Vensal, D.D.S. dice que los espárragos pueden curar el cáncer. El estudio "Los elementos de material médica", editado en 1854 por un profesor de la Universidad de Pensilvania declara que los espárragos se utilizaban como un remedio popular para los cálculos del riñón. Este profesor en 1739 se refirió a experimentos en el poder de los espárragos para disolver cálculos. Hay muchos otros casos pero el establecimiento medico interfiere en que obtengamos los registros. Por lo tanto hago un llamado a los lectores para divulgar estas buenas noticias y ayudarnos a coleccionar un gran número de casos que abrumen a los médicos escépticos sobre este remedio natural e increíblemente sencillo. Para el tratamiento los espárragos se deben cocinar antes de consumir, y de ahí que los espárragos enlatados son tan Buenos como los frescos. Me escribo con dos enlatadotas de espárragos, Giant Giant y Stokely, y estoy satisfecho que estas marcas no contienen pesticidas ni conservantes. "Pongan los espárragos cocidos en una licuadora y logren un pure, almacénelos en el refrigerador. Dele al paciente 4 cucharadas llenas al día, de mañana y de noche. Generalmente en 2 a 4 semanas los pacientes tendrán reacciones positivas. Se puede diluir en agua y tomarlo como una bebida fría o caliente. La dosis sugerida se basa en experiencia pasada, pero ciertamente dosis mayores no causarán daño y en algunos casos pueden ser necesarias." "Aquello que cura puede también prevenir". "Hay muchos informes de recuperación tanto por consumir espárragos crudos como cocidos. Houston escribió que "el jugo crudo o licuado" puede ser una forma más efectiva" (citado en Hess, 1999, Pág. 138)Si yo tuviera cáncer comería tantos espárragos como pudiera, cocinados (preferiblemente al vapor) o crudos, sólidos o líquidos." Los espárragos están repletos de nutrientes y bajos en calorías, sodio y colesterol. Es una fuente excelente de ácido fólico y de vitamina C, tiamina, y vitamina B6. Los espárragos no contienen grasa ni colesterol. Es una fuente importante de potasio y muchos micronutrientes. De acuerdo al Instituto Nacional de cáncer, los espárragos son el alimento más elevado en glutathione, uno de los enemigos más potentes contra el cáncer citado como "el más potente anticancerígeno y antioxidante") Además los espárragos contienen rutín en grado elevado, que fortalece los vasos sanguíneos.
