Okra For Diabetes
Posted by Lisa at Wednesday, February 26, 2014For Diabetes Sufferers-Cut the ends of a few okra, put in a cup with water overnight, the next day remove the okra and drink the water… Diabetes will go away and so will your shots. Everything created by God works miraculously on human. One volunteer said that their blood glucose decreased from 300 to 150. Another fell from 195 to 94 and even said the okra water played the role of insulin, very well done.
So while you can keep adding okra to your soups and curries, the
best natural remedy for diabetes is to have raw okra soaked in water.
The question is, what nutrient in okra makes it such a powerful natural
remedy for diabetes? These are some of the health benefits of okra that
can be helpful to diabetics.
Low GI Food: The term GI stands for Glycemic Index. All diabetics are
advised to have food that low glycemic index. Okra has a glycemic index
of 20. According to medical standards that is a very low GI food.
Diabetics can easily snack on okra recipes to fill their stomach and
also control their blood sugar levels.
Fights Kidney Disease: The next step after detection of diabetes type 2
is always a kidney condition. It has been seen that persistent high
blood sugar levels affect your kidneys very badly. The health benefits
of okra include keeping kidney diseases away. So have okra to maintain
good renal health if you are diabetic.
Soluble Fiber: Soluble dietary fibers are good for diabetics because it
plays a important part in carbohydrate digestion. Okra which is rich in
soluble fibers slows down the digestive process and reduces the impact
of carbs on the blood sugar levels.

7 Tips to Prevent Uric Acid Disease/GOUT
Posted by Lisa at Wednesday, January 22, 2014Some of these
tips can help prevent an increase in uric acid in the blood. These tips
include changes in lifestyle and diet should be regularly and strictly
adhered to, if not affected by gout or uric acid disease relapse.
1. Lose Weight In Staged
If overweight, reduce gradually, because losing weight can help lower
uric acid levels. But avoid excessively strict diet, follow a healthy
diet here. Losing weight drastically with excessive dieting may
precipitate an attack of gout. That’s great if accompanied with regular
exercise.
2. Eat Foods Low Purine (Diet Low Purine)
Purine is an organic component that causes gout. These substances are
needed in the body to normal limits are met.@Restrict foods high in
purines -
Organ meats such as liver, kidney, heart
Selected fish and shellfish
Meat & yeast extracts brewers and bakers yeast
Meat soups & stock cubes. Foods that can cause gout such as beans,
mushrooms, cooked spinach, and mustard greens, goat meat, offal and lard
(fat), shellfish, duck and turkey, salmon, mackerel, sardines, crab,
shrimp , anchovy and some other fish, cream and ice cream, and sweet
bread. Some foods containing purine content seen in the list below. It
should be remembered that the sensitivity of a person to be exposed to
uric acid after eating these foods will vary.
3. More White Water Consumption
Approximately 90% of gout is caused by the inability of the kidneys
remove uric acid from the body completely through urine. Water
consumption is believed to improve the disposal of substances that are
not useful as excessive uric acid from the body. Drink at least 6-8
glasses a day.
4. Expand Food Containing Calcium and High Antioxidant
Eating calcium-rich foods such as vegetables and fruits such as
bananas, potatoes, avocados, milk and yogurt. Eating fruits rich in
vitamin C, especially citrus and strawberry.
5. Avoid Alcohol and Soft Drink Consumption
Alcohol can lead to increased production of uric acid, while soft drink
consumption may inhibit the absorption of calcium and calcium even
throw in vain.
6. Limit your consumption of fried food
Fats and oils turn rancid at high temperatures such as in frying time.
Moreover, if the used oil is oil that is used repeatedly. Rancid fats
which can quickly destroy vitamin E and causes an increase in uric acid
in the blood.
7. Increase Sexual Activity
These tips
are more appropriate for those who have become husband and wife. Sexual
activity, such as a kiss can make the body become more relaxed, so easy
to boost the immune system. In addition, sexual intercourse can
facilitate the production of urine so it can reduce the concentration of
uric acid in the blood.
Discipline, Awareness and Healthy Habits.
Again the key here is discipline. You should also take the time to
learn about the food you eat, and take note of foods that seem to
trigger your gout. There is no set uric acid level that triggers gout
attacks, each person has a different threshold so you should pay
attention to how your body reacts. You should also form some healthy
habits to reduce uric acid and prevent gout attacks.
If you are
unsure about a part of your diet, consult your doctor about it. Even
though there are a lot of resources online to help you, consulting with
your doctor is still the best way to fine tune your diet and reduce uric
acid levels.

Relieve The Pain
Posted by Lisa at Friday, January 03, 2014Eliminate Cancer
Posted by Lisa at Friday, January 03, 2014AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND
ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE
IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY …
1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do
not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few
billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer
cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are
unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the
detectable size.
2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person’s lifetime.
3. When the person’s immune system is strong the cancer cells will be
destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.
4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple
nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental,
food and lifestyle factors.
5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.
6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells
and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow,
gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver,
kidneys, heart, lungs etc.
7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.
8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often
reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation
do not result in more tumor destruction.
9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and
radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence
the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.
10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and
become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer
cells to spread to other sites.
11. An effective way to battle cancer is to STARVE the cancer cells by not feeding it with foods it needs to multiple.
What cancer cells feed on:
a.
Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one
important food supply to the cancer cells. Note: Sugar substitutes like
NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is
harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses
but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make
it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg’s aminos or sea salt.
b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the
gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and
substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells will starved.
c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is
acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef
or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and
parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.
d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains,
seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline
environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh
vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach
down to cellular levels within 15 minutes t o nourish and enhance
growth of healthy cells.
To obtain live enzymes for building healthy
cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including
bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes
are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).
e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green
tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties.
Water–best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins
and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.
12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of
digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines will
become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.
13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining
from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein
walls of cancer cells and allows the body’s killer cells to destroy the
cancer cells.
14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence,
Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the
body’s own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like
vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the
body’s normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded
cells.
15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive
and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor.
Anger,
unforgiving and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic
environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax
and enjoy life.
16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment.
Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the
cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy
cancer cells.
