How much should a baby sleep?

2006-04-07T09:25:00.000+04:00

This question will be asked by almost all parents especially when their first baby is born. The new born will be sleeping almost all the time. i.e. about 18-20 hrs. But this duration may vary for different children. There are some children who won’t sleep for the whole night for the first one month. This is not a disease or nothing is wrong with the baby.nothing can be done for this just allow your baby to do as he/she likes but they will change themselves after some days.. then we can make a good schedule for his sleep. The duration of sleep is perfect for your baby if he/she is not having any indigestion, comfortable with their feedings, no unnecessary quarrels etc... Usually babies will be sleeping from feed to feed for the first one or two months... they will control their sleep accordingly and will sleep on alternate feeds and like that. Another thing to note is that babies will themselves develops their timetable of wake and sleep and used to do like that everyday. From sixth month probably babies will cut one of their sleeps during day time. Good sleep is necessary for the healthy growth and development of brain.So please don't interrupt your baby's sleep.
The average two year old child should sleep for 10 hours in the night and a nap in the daytime. And for a one year old child it is 12 hours and a nap…

By meditation the mind will be relaxed so its good to do this as tensions are increasing day by day.

Wheat

2006-04-03T10:50:00.000+04:00

Psoriasis people should avoid wheat.

Good Food for Psoriasis

2006-04-01T10:06:00.000+04:00

People with Psoriasis can benefit greatly from the food they eat and lifestyle . Many researches have shown that fatty acids,beta carotene,omega-3, folate, zinc etc are important in the control of psoriasis .Carrots,apricots,mangoes and green leafy vegitables are rich in beta carotene which then body converts into vitaminA which is very necessary for the skin.Flax seeds are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids.Brocholi which is rich in folate and wholegrain foods which are rich in zinc are also essential.The best thing is to eat lively foods which are from organically grown vegitables.Avoid too much intake of carbohydrates and dariy products.But butter is exceptional because omega-3 oils are found in butter obtained from grass eating cows.

In addition to all these the patient should drink lots of water atleast 2litres per day.

AVOID

Red meat
Dairy food except butter from grass feed cows
Eggs
Smoking and Use of Drinks
high fatty ,spicy foods

So I think you start eating the way our ancestors did.

NEEM Good for Psoriasis

2006-03-22T10:02:00.000+04:00

The researchers of University of Michigan (U-M) have found a common genetic variation that makes some people more likely to develop psoriasis and they identified the gene - PSORS1 (SORE-ESS-1) - in a large clinical study involving 2,723 people from 678 families. At least one member in each family had psoriasis.

Medicinal properties of neem have been known to Indians since time immemorial. The earliest Sanskrit medical writings refer to the benefits of neem’s fruits, seeds, oil, leaves, roots and bark.One of neem’s stronger advantages is its effect upon the skin in general. It has been most helpful in treating a variety of skin problems and diseases including psoriasis, eczema and other persistent conditions.Psoriasis is successfully treated with neem oil. The oil moisturizes and protects the skin while healing the lesions, scaling and irritations. Experiments have shown that patients with psoriasis who have taken neem leaf orally, combined with tropical treatment with neem extracts and neem seed oil, achieve results

How to make hot Neem Tea

1 tspn fresh or dried Mint (optional)

1/2 tspn grated Ginger or

PSORIASIS

2006-03-17T13:38:00.000+04:00

Psoriasis is a chronic, recurring skin disease, which can affects both sexes equally and which can vary from mild, occasional outbreaks to more severe cases of the condition. Psoriasis is caused by the cycle of skin cell renewal becoming accelerated, leading to an accumulation of dead skin cells on the surface. This shows up as red, sore-looking patches on the skin with silvery scales, occurring most commonly on the elbows, knees and scalp. In severe cases, larger areas of the body may be affected.

There is no absolute known cause for psoriasis, but there is a genetic component to the condition. It can appear for the first time at any age, but is more likely to appear between the ages of 11 and 45. It is important to note that psoriasis is not contagious, nor can it be transferred from one area of the body to another. Recent studies show that there may be an ethnic link. It seems that psoriasis is most common in Caucasians and slightly less common in African Americans. Worldwide, psoriasis is most common in Scandinavia and other parts of northern Europe. It appears to be far less common among Asians and is rare in Native Americans.
There also is a genetic component associated with psoriasis. Approximately one-third of people who develop psoriasis have at least one family member with the condition.

A child with one affected parent has a 15% chance of developing the disease and this rises to 50% if both the parents are affected. Therefore the children should be given special attention by keeping their skin slightly oily,avoid too much fried foods etc.

Remedy

I think psoriasis cannot be cured completely but only can be controlled.

The psoriasis affected person's skin will normally dry type and therefore it should be kept slightly oily to avoid odiscomfort.Normally oils like coconut oil can be used.But we can make certain special oil for better results.Its better to be vegitarian to avoid further infections.
Special oil can be prepared like this

Ingredients

Leaves of vettupala/dendapala(wrightia tinctoria)

Leaves of neela amari

any oil

Method

Take one firewood earthen pot and fill it with oil and the leaves.Keep this in sunlight for continous seven days.After the first day itself the oil colour will become dark green which means the medicinal essence of leaves are being transferred into the oil.

After seven days the oil can be used for massage over the skin.

Try this out!!!

Dandruff

2006-03-02T19:39:00.000+04:00

There are many medicated oils available in the market for permanent remedy of dandruff.

Another thing come along with dandruff is hair loss.Due to improper method of dieting many people face this hair loss .This is because of the deficiency in vitamins and proteins which are very essential for the healthy growth of hair.Many people are not aware of why their hairs are falling too much:) .The best remedy is to have a proper planned diet chart and the strict follow up of the same.

Special oil for massage

We can use specially prepared oil for massaging which will be better than normal oils.For this many medicinal herbs are required.They are mentioned below.

1. Thulsi

4 Aloe
