HOW TO PREVENT AN INFESTATION OF PARASITES?


HOW TO PREVENT AN INFESTATION OF PARASITES? 

1. Make a mixture of one part cinnamon (tuj) oil, one part Tea Tree oil, one part Eucalyptus oil with three parts of almond oil and take four drops once a day.

2. One to two teaspoonfuls of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water or juice or  in your salad dressing are very effective against the worms and scavengers.

3. Pumpkin seeds are known to keep the worms away. Two ounces of pumpkin seeds are scalded and the outer skin is peeled off and the inner green pulp is mixed with cream or milk and taken like porridge. Take this in the morning after twelve hours fasting and this is then followed in two hours by castor oil (arandi). This may be repeated in a week or so if necessary.

4. Garlic is also useful as a worm destroyer.

5. A diet high in carbohydrates and low in protein has been found to make parasitic infections worse. When the body is in an alkaline condition the parasitic infection sets in. It is best to keep the diet slightly acidic (by using apple cider vinegar and cranberry juice) both as a preventive measure and when treating the infection.

6. Foods to 'add' to diet are – pumpkin seeds; Calmyrna Figs (the tiny seeds tear the skin of the worms); garlic; apple cider vinegar; cranberry juice and pomegranates (anar). Foods to 'avoid'  are raw  or  undercooked beef, pork, fish and chicken; sugars and carbohydrates; mountain water; water chestnuts and watercress (jalkumb) and fruits or vegetables that are unwashed or washed in questionable water.

How to prevent body Odor?


How to prevent body Odor?

What is Body Odor?
Body odor is one of those subjects that nobody really likes to talk about. It is not pleasant when there is a distinctive whiff of stale sweat in the air. Although, sweat is basically odorless, the smell can be quite awful. At some point everyone has felt a bit sweaty, especially on a hot summer’s day, after a strenuous workout or when having to speak in front of an audience.

There are two types of sweat glands in the skin and they are known as the apocrine and eccrine glands. Apocrine glands develop in areas where there is an abundance of hair follicles such as the underarms, genitals and scalp. Eccrine glands develop over most parts of the body and open directly onto the skin’s surface. Both these glands are controlled by the sympathetic nervous system, which controls most of our involuntary actions such as breathing, heartbeat and sweating.

It is a known fact that men sweat more than women. Children rarely have body odor because the glands in the armpits and genitals only become active during puberty. With the onset of puberty, the sweat glands develop under the stimulation of hormones and protein and the oil production of the skin in the armpits and genitals also increases.

Sweat is part of the body’s way to cool down. Although sweat does not smell, the bacteria that normally lives on our skin feeds on it and breaks it down into aromatic fatty acids and chemicals that cause the unpleasant odor.

Certain areas of the skin such as the armpits and genitals tend to give off more of a body odor because these glands produce oily substances and proteins that bacteria feed on. Sweat found on any other areas of the body is salty water which bacteria find difficult to flourish in.

 Ways to prevent body odor

1. Wash directly after a work-out or sporting activity .

2. Use antiperspirants, deodorants and talcum powders regularly .

3. Shave or wax under your arms as this area is a fertile breeding ground for bacteria .

4. Wash clothing regularly in hot soapy water with a scented concentrate .

5. Avoid wearing the same clothing you wore the day before as it will retain the sweat smell. 

6. Change socks and undergarments daily .

7. Wear cotton or linen clothes as they are more absorbent than synthetic fabrics .

8. Avoid wearing tight fitting clothes and rather opt for loose fitting clothes .

9. Incorporate fresh fruit, vegetables and whole grains into your diet .

10. Drink lots of water to flush out toxins in the body’s system .

11. Avoid eating spicy or sharp smelling foods (such as garlic, onions, hot peppers or curries) as the odor comes through the pores .

12. Avoid drinking hot drinks such as coffee or tea.

13. Maintain good personal hygiene by washing or showering at least 2-3 times a day with hot water and anti-bacterial soap .

How to prevent kidney stones ?


How to prevent kidney stones ?
What are kidney stones?  
Kidney stones are gravel-like collections of chemicals that may appear in any area of the urinary system, from the kidney to the bladder. They may be small or large. You may have just one stone or many. Your kidneys filter your blood and excrete waste products and excess water as urine. They are located on either side of your spine, just above your waist. Kidney stones are most common in middle-aged people and are 3 times more common in men than in women. They tend to recur.

The most common type of kidney stones result from too much calcium and oxalate in the urine. These minerals bind together as crystals, forming stones. The following dietary guidelines can help to prevent kidney stones.

1. Drink plenty of fluid  

Drink more fluid, especially water

Drinking water helps to flush out the kidneys and dilute stone-forming substances, making stones less likely to form.

Drink at least 2- 3 litres, or 10 cups, of fluid daily. At least half of this should be water (soda, mineral, spring or plain tap water).

Have a cup of fluid (250mL) each hour during waking hours, and a large glass of water before going to bed. Drink a glass of water if you wake up during the night.

Spread out your fluid intake during the day.

AVOID strong black tea and orange juice, as these are high in oxalates.

Avoid grape fruit juice, cranberry juice (if more than 500ml/day) and sugary drinks. Drinking large amounts of sugary drinks (softdrink, cordial) can lead to weight gain. Choose diet or low joule drinks to limit weight gain.

Lemon juice is a good source of citrate which helps to prevent stones forming. Drink 100ml of lemon juice daily (could be added to water).

2.  Limit salt  

Salt (sodium) increases the amount of calcium in your urine. Limit sodium intake to less than 2300mg per day

To reduce salt /sodium: buy fresh foods, or foods without salt - fruit, fresh vegetables, fresh meats, chicken, fish, eggs, porridge, rice, pasta

Most sodium (75%) comes from processed foods. Limit processed foods high in salt e.g. soup, Bonox, processed meats, sauces, gravy, crisps and snack foods.

“low salt” or “no added salt” foods are the best choices. Look for a sodium content less than 150 mg per serve as a guideline. Note that some “reduced salt” products can still contain high levels of sodium.

do not add salt at the table or in cooking.

What can I use instead?

freshly ground pepper, dry mustard powder

lemon juice, lime juice, vinegar

a sprinkle of dried herbs or chopped fresh herbs

garlic, curry, chilli, onion, fresh ginger, spring onions

3. Limit foods high in oxalate  

Reducing  oxalate  in your diet helps to reduce the amount of oxalate in your urine.
Limit intake of :

rhubarb, spinach, silverbeet, beetroot, eggplant, sweet potato, celery, leeks

nuts, peanut paste

strong black tea, orange juice

chocolate

wheat bran and wheat germ

berries (eg strawberries, blackberries), dried figs

4. Include adequate calcium in your diet

Dietary calcium is important for your bones and teeth. Adequate dietary calcium intake is recommended.

Include at least 2-3 choices daily from the following list:

250mL milk (eg Trim, skim, full cream, calcium-fortified soy milk)

200mL high calcium milk eg Physical

200g (small tub) yoghurt

40g cheese (2 slices)

3 scoops ice cream

5. Include only a moderate amount of animal protein 

Limit protein from  meat, seafood, fish, chicken, eggs  to a moderate serve (120 -150g) daily (cooked) (note 60g meat = 2 eggs).

6. Vitamin supplements 

Do not take  Vitamin C supplements (also known as ascorbic acid, calcium ascorbate).

Do not take  Vitamin D supplements  or cod liver oil.

7. Choose wholemeal and wholegrain foods  

Eating foods higher in fibre can decrease the risk of stone formation by reducing the amount of calcium and oxalate you absorb

Choose wholemeal and wholegrain breads, flour, cereals, pasta, biscuits and crackers

8. Increase fruit and vegetable intake.
