HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT WISELY - by SHEILA BER - Naturopathic Consultant.

My best advice to you:

There are many solutions, and no one solutions works on its own.
Our body chemistry is very individually complex, and one needs to consider all internal and external factors influencing our body.
There is no one magic bullet that is safe to lose weight rapidly.
Multiple solutions, together will achieve synergistic, helpful and lasting effect that you desire to have, while losing weight.

The Dietary Guidelines for distribution of energy nutrients are as follows:

Fat: 30% of total calories
Protein: 25%
Carbohydrates: 45%
Carbs, short for carbohydrates, are a ready and easy supply of energy since they break down quickly. Most carbs will digest completely in about two hours. With that in mind, you should eat carbs that are high in fiber to slow the rush of sugar to the blood stream.
Proteins should be eaten in portions about the size of a deck of cards. Three to four of these portions will provide 60-80 grams (2.1 to 2.8 ounces) of the protein needed each day. If you’re trying to build muscle, it’s a good idea to add a few more grams of protein each day to promote muscle growth.
Saturated fats are not as heart healthy as mono-unsaturated or polyunsaturated fats, but they are important and as much as 10% of your fat intake can come from saturated fats. They are mostly animal fats, including fat from dairy products.
Minimize their consumption, and if you consume more than recommended, you can cancel out saturated fats, by following the steps described below, in this article.

You have to tackle all your health aspects to achieve maximum results:

-Physically: Exercises, body restoration (massage, spa, etc,)
-Mentally: Relaxation, mind restoration, effective ways of dealing with stress, and/or with any mental condition, if present.
-Spiritually: Yoga, meditation, prayer, herbal treatments.
-Chemically: Supplements, vitamins, alkalizing agents.
-Microbially: Probiotics, enzymes, daily elimination of microbial & chemical toxins.
-Electrolytrically: Drink daily: 6-8 glasses water.
Take Minerals to balance your body`s electrolytes: Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium. Extremely important for:
metabolism, and efficient electrical conductivity, impacting every cell in your body, the nervous system, all muscles, all glands and organs. The BRAIN and the HEART are particularly
affected, due to their higher electrical activity.
*Optimal electrical conductivity, provides the body with better circulation, more energy, higher level of Oxygen, strong immune system, and improved bodily functions.

First: Have a blood test and check with your family Doctor the levels of the following:
THYROID
HEMOGLOBIN
IRON
CORTISOL
CHOLESTEROL
HORMONES
ESR

If your Thyroid level is low, treat it!
You can also treat it naturally, by taking Lugol Iodine:8 drops in some filtered water 2x a day for 2 months, and continue for an indefinite period: 8 drops - once a day.
If your Hemoglobin and Iron levels are low: 1) take daily 1-2 Iron capsules, from a vegetable source (a mild form that does not cause constipation). Take it with vitamin C - 500 mg, for optimum absorption. 2) Take B-12: 1000-5000 mcg. (Methylcobalamine) version which assimilates better.

If your Cortisol level is high, its indicatory of your high stress level, and you can treat it naturally, by taking: 1) B-Complex 1-2 tablets daily,
2)L-Theanine (Amino acid) 500 mg. 1-2x a day. It helps with anxiety.
3) Holy Basil 500 mg. 4) Passion flower extract or capsules: 1-3x daily for about 30 days, and stop. Take this herb only when in extreme stress and anxiety.
Check your hormones level, and if you Estrogen level is high, you are Estrogen dominant. You then need to balance your hormones, by getting a bioidentical Progesterone cream 3%-6%, and applying it daily on your skin. Apply it once daily, alternating skin areas: abdomen, front neck, inside mid arms, inside and back of thighs. Bioidentical assimilates more efficiently, it is safer, and it's from a natural source.
Progesterone will make you feel better, more calm, and will help balance your thyroid, including all other systems in your body. For more information you can go to: http://www.hystersisters.com/vb2/article_97232.htm and http://www.hormone-healthy.com/Benefits_of_Natural_Progesterone.htm.

*Estrogen dominance can pose a high risk for developing cancer, if not treated in due course. Some of the many side effects are, overeating, and higher aggression, in both women and men.

If your ESR level is high, it is indicatory of high inflammation level in the body. Treat it if its high!
Also during weight loss, ESR level fluctuates, so it is recommended to have a blood test every 3-6 months, to address any abnormality.

1. Reduce consumption of saturated fats to a minimum. Our body needs a certain amount, to function optimally.

2. Exercise 15-30 minutes daily. NEVER overexert yourself! It is unhealthy and stressful. Stress will elevate your Cortisol level, which will actually cause you
to gain weight, and thus it's counterproductive.

3. Periodically, alternate the type of exercises that you do. The muscles that you work out eventually get desensitized and will have lower resistance.
Remember: you burn calories faster when your muscles have higher resistance, when you exercise them:

HIGHER MUSCLE RESISTANCE= HIGHER NO. OF CALORIES BURNED,
and
LOWER MUSCLE RESISTANCE= LOWER NO. OF CALORIES BURNED.
and

HIGHER INTENSITY EXERCISE is not always equal to HIGHER MUSCLE RESISTANCE, and thus will not always burn you more calories.

Working out longer, and more intensely, with muscles that no longer have high resistance, will have you burn less calories than you burned previously, when your muscles had higher resistance.
For this reason, it is recommended that you alternate any set of exercises that you do, every few days, and also change the duration time, so that your body does not get desensitized completely to any particular set of exercises.

4. TO CANCEL OUT SATURATED FATS (including CARBS, SUGARS:

Daily take the following:

a) 1-2 spoons EXTRA VIRGIN COCONUT OIL (Healthy Planet Health store), and/or EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL(high quality,
such as "Evoo"). Yes, these oils will balance your HDL/LDL
levels, due to the special chemical composition that they both acquire.
b) 2-3 capsules 1000 mg. LECITHIN. Or 1 spoon granules, 2x daily, in soups, teas, juices.
c) 1 spoon FLAX OIL,
d) 2-4 spoons COD LIVER OIL (also high in Omega),
e) 2 spoons APPLE CIDER VINEGAR in 1 cup warm water, especially after a heavy or fatty meal.
f) Take PROBIOTICS! They aid in digestion, reduce inflammation, enhance metabolism. 1-2 capsules once or twice daily.
g) Take ENZYMES 2-3x daily, 15 minutes before meals, for complete digestion, optimum metabolism, treating yeast infection, and allergies. Enzymes digest putrid matter in your digestive system, also digest microbes, yeast, and even cancer cells.
How Do You Know if You Are Lacking Enzymes?
Heartburn, gas, constipation, bloating, allergies, ulcers, lack of energy and reduced functioning of the immune system may occur when there are not enough enzymes.

**Please note: Yeasty foods and drinks can be addictive!
**When you eat or drink yeasty foods, drinks, such as: PIZZA, PASTRY, WINE, BEER, consume in moderation, and immediately take Probiotics, to get rid of the excessive yeast in your body. Consequently they help reduce your cravings to foods that contain the yeast!

h) BAKING SODA (Arm & Hammer): Take 1/2 tsp Baking Soda, in 1 glass water, along with POTASSIUM 1 capsule 99 mg.(to balance the electrolytes in your body).
*You must take the drink with the Potassium, in order to also maintain a normal blood pressure.

Baking Soda (2NaHCO3): Aids digestion, provides energy, slows/reduces microbial activity, alkalizes your body due to the 3 Oxygen atoms in the soda, thus neutralizing your body acidic pH, due to an acidic diet, comprised of high percentage of sugars, carbs, proteins, fat, and low in vegetables and fruits.
*Body acidic pH will render you tired, sluggish, deprived or lower in oxygen, resulting in higher microbial activity, increase in inflammation level, and greater risk of developing cancer, because CANCER thrives and grows only in an acidic environment. Keep your body pH slightly alkaline at: 7.0 - 7.5!!!

BODY DAILY ELIMINATION: Daily elimination of toxins is crucial for good health. If you are occasionally encountering a problem doing so, you can try one, or more of the following suggestions:

a) Eat a healthy amount of vegetables, whole grains and beans to get a variety of fiber, vitamins and minerals.
b) Drink plenty of water: 6-8 glasses of water daily.
c) Take Probiotics, 1-2 capsules on empty stomach, with 1 cup of warm water, before breakfast.
d) Eat several prunes, to help with quicker bowel motility.
e) Add Lecithin granules: 1 spoon, in your coffee, tea, or food. It works when you add it to a warm/hot liquid. Or you can take 1 capsule 2x daily with warm water.
f) Add 1-2 tablespoons of ground Flax seeds into 1/2 cup of boiled water, stir, leave for a minute, add 1/2 cup lukewarm water, and drink, preferably on empty stomach.
g) Drink special HERBAL LAXATIVE TEA (excellent brand is: Triple Leaf). It will give you gentle effective relief, especially if you drink it on empty stomach, 1/2 hr. before a meal.

*If none of the above was of any help, then you may have parasites, that cause stubborn constipation, and it would therefore be best that you consult with a Naturopathic Doctor, who can give you a simple test, to find out if you do have them. If you do, you'll be given a simple herbal treatment, to take for about 20 days. The treatment is safe, easy, simple, and effective.

*I can recommend an excellent Naturopathc Doctor: Dr. Diana Enzo, at: 905-477-0200, Address: 3160 Steeles Ave. E. (just W. of Victoria Park Ave.), Toronto.

If you have parasites and you don't seek treatment to eliminate them, you may experience a continuing constipation problem, along with many other undesirable symptoms. To find out if you have parasites, ask yourself the questions:

DO I EXPERIENCE THE FOLLOWING:

Constipation: Some worms, because of their shape and large size. can physically obstruct certain organs. Heavy worm infections can block the common bile duct and the intestinal tract, making elimination infrequent and difficult.

Diarrhoea: Certain parasites, primarily protozoa, produce a prostaglandin (hormone like substance) found in various human tissues) which creates a sodium and chloride loss that leads to frequent watery stools. The diarrhoea process in parasite infection is, therefore, a function of the parasite, not the body's attempt to rid itself of an infectious organism.

Gas and Bloating: Some parasites live in the upper small intestine where the inflammation they produce causes both gas and bloating. The situation can be magnified when hard-to-digest foods such as beans and raw fruits and vegetables are eaten. Persistent abdominal distention is a frequent sign of hidden invaders. These gastrointestinal symptoms can persist intermittently for many months or years if the parasites are not eliminated from the body.

Irritable bowel syndrome: Parasites can irritate inflame, coal, the intestinal cell wall, leading to a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms and malabsorption of vital nutrients, particularly fatty substances. This malabsorption leads to bulky stools and steatorrhea (excess fat in feces).

Joint and muscle aches and pains: Parasites are known to migrate to encyst (become enclosed in a sac) in joint fluids, and worms can encyst in muscles. Once Ads happens, pain becomes evident and is often assumed to be caused by arthritis Joint and muscle pains and inflammation are also the result of tissue damage caused by some parasites of the body's ongoing immune response to then- presence.

Anaemia: Some varieties of intestinal worms attach themselves to the mucosal lining of the intestines and then leach nutrients from the human host. If they are present in large enough numbers, they can create enough blood loss to cause a type of iron deficiency or pernicious

Allergy: Parasites can irritate and sometimes perforate the intestinal lining, increasing bowel permeability to large undigested molecules. This can activate the body's immune response to produce increased levels of Eosinophils, one type of the body's fighter cells. The Eosinophils can inflame body tissue, resulting in an allergic reaction. Like allergy, parasites also trigger an increase in the production of immunoglobulin E (IgE).

Skin conditions: Intestinal worms can cause hives, rashes, weeping eczema, and other allergic-type skin reactions. Cutaneous ulcers, swellings and sores, popular lesions, and itchy dermatitis can afl result from protozoan invasion.

Granuloma: Granulomas are tumour-like masses that encase destroyed large or parasitic eggs. They develop most often in the colon or rectal walls but can also be found in the lungs liver, peritoneum, and uterus.

Nervousness: Parasitic metabolic wastes and toxic substances can serve as irritants to the central nervous system. Restlessness and anxiety are often the result of the systemic parasite infestation. (After completing a herbal cleanse, many people swear that their persistently grouchy mates or relatives have become a lot more pleasant and patient. "The most famous tapeworm of recent years belonged to the late opera singer Maria Callas. She had a serious weight and skin problem. When the tapeworm was detected and removed, ha" weight dropped, her skin improved and her temperament mellowed," says Gittleman.)

Sleep disturbances: Multiple awakening during the night particularly between 2 and 3 AM, are possibly caused by the body's attempts to eliminate toxic wastes via the liver. According to Chinese medicine, these hours are governed by the liver. Sleep disturbances are also caused by nocturnal exits of certain parasites through the anus, creating the intense discomfort and itching.

Teeth grinding: Bruxism - abnormal grinding, clenching, and gnashing of the teeth - has been observed in cases of parasitic infection. These symptoms are most noticeable among sleeping for children. Bruxism may be a nervous response to the internal foreign irritant.

Chronic fatigue: Chronic fatigue symptoms include tiredness, flu-like complaints, apathy, depression, impaired concentration, and faulty memory. Parasites cause these physical, mental, and emotional symptoms through malnutrition resulting from malabsorption of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and especially vitamins A and B-12.

Immune Dysfunction: Parasites depress immune system functioning by decreasing the secretion of immunoglobulin A (I&A). Their presence continuously stimulates the system response and over time can exhaust this vital defense system, leaving the body open to bacterial and viral infections.

The following conditions might also be tell-tale signs of an invasion: weight gain, excessive hunger, weight loss, bad taste in the mouth and bad breath, asthma, diabetes, epilepsy, acne, migraines, and the biggest killers: heart disease and cancer.

GOOD LUCK!

CANCER PREVENTION TIPS AND BEST ADVICE by SHEILA BER - Naturopathic Consultant.

50% OF ALL CANCERS CAN BE PREVENTED!

1) ALKALIZE YOUR BODY, 2)TAKE DAILY VITAMIN D3, 5,000-10,000 I.U. divided in 2: am & pm. Simple, cheapest way to alkalize: 1/2 tsp Baking Soda in 1 cup water, daily. If your diet consists of excessive Carbs (including sugars) content, and your stress level is very high, you take medication, you smoke, your body pH would definitely be very acidic. You then have to take Baking soda, 2x a day, to ensure your body is NOT ACIDIC, so that it discourages CANCER from thriving.
Note: CANCER CELLS love to thrive in an acidic environment.
It is basic chemistry!

2) Take PROBIOTICS: 1-2 capsules a day.
3) Eats plenty of vegetables and fruits. Less Carbs and fats.
4) Take 1-2 tablespoon Flax oil/Cod liver fish oil daily! They reduce inflammation, thus also lower the risk for cancer.
5) Don't smoke, nor eat smoked foods. Stay away from meat cold cuts. Eat fish, chicken and legumes that have cancer fighting properties.
6) Use toothpastes that are Fluoride and Paraben free. Fluoride competes with the Iodine in your body, thus
causing thyroid and hormones' imbalance.
7) Use cleaning agents that are green and free of volatile harmful chemicals.
8) To replace deodorants: use a small mixture of baking soda and water, and apply under arms etc.
It will keep you smelling fresh for several days. You can repeat daily. It is cheap, effective and simple.
It does not leave stains on your clothing.
9) Refrain from drinking alcohol, if possible. Alcohol raises Estrogen level, fuelling cancer growth, (especially hormonal cancer) if excessive.
10) Check periodically your thyroid level. The Thyroid controls all bodily functions, including hormones.
All alcoholic drinks contain yeast. Yeast overgrowth is toxic, damaging, and can cause cancer.
11) When you eat or drink yeasty foods, drinks, such as: PIZZA, PASTRY, WINE, BEER, consume in moderation, and immediately take Probiotics, to get rid of the excessive yeast in your body. Probiotics also digest and kill yeast.
*Please note: A strong presence of Yeast/Candida can pose a high risk of developing breast cancer.
12) Daily check your urine pH level. Optimum pH is: 6.5-7.5.9).
13)Do blood test, once in 6 months, and check your ESR level. It indicates the inflammation rate in your body. High inflammation level can induce cancer growth. Check also your liver status.
14) Check your hormones level. If your Estrogen level is high, you are then considered to be Estrogen dominant, and therefore, at a greater risk of developing cancer.
To balance your hormones, it is recommended to use Bioidentical Progesterone cream 3%-6%, once or 2x daily.
You simply apply it on the skin, daily alternating areas: abdomen, front neck, inside mid-arms, inside and back of thighs.
You'll require a Doctor's prescription. Any Dr. with an alternative approach will be happy to assist.
Bioidentical Progesterone is beneficial for: Thyroid balance, bone health, heart health, nervous system and much more.

15) Check with a Naturopathic Doctor, whether you have parasites, particularly the FLUKES, that cause cancer! The test is brief and simple, and it's done through Electro Dermal testing.
*I had breast cancer, and found out through this test, that I had Flukes that took over, nearly 70% of my body, when the cancer was already present. Had I known earlier, that I had them, and got an adequate treatment, cancer would not have been the result.
You can get Flukes, by eating vegetables, improperly washed, also fish and meat insufficiently cooked.
16) Keep your stress level down. Find ways to deal with it effectively, so that it won't leave a negative, toxic impact on your body, that may result in cancer.
Body chemistry: Stress, acidic diet, medications, alcohol, cigarette smoking, parasites (including yeast, fungus), all contribute to acidic body pH. It is extremely difficult to stay slightly alkaline at all times, for most people, unless one takes action to reverse the acidic body pH. Simplest way to alkalize is to: drink 1/2 teaspoon BAKING SODA in 1 cup water, with 1 POTASSIUM tablet (to keep your electrolytes balanced). Do it 2-3 a day. Baking Soda is harmless, provides you with energy, added Oxygen, better digestion, has detoxifying effect, and neutralizes your body acidity.
If your acidity level is much too high, you need to repeat the above 2-3 times a day, so that your body will be slightly alkaline: pH 7.0-7.5.
**To test your blood pH, you simply check the pH in your Urine, 2x a day. If you have cancer, you need to check at least 3x a day. Cancer further acidifies the body, by releasing its toxins.
A simple test is done with a Q-Tip (coated with Turmeric, and has light yellow color) and is placed under the stream of urine. If the pH is acidic, it will remain yellow, and if it is alkaline, the color of the Q-Tip will appear in color ranging from orange to red wine color.
Orange to red wine, are the colors that you want to have. If you see yellow on your Q-tip, immediately, alkalize, by taking your Baking Soda drink, as described above.

**To prepare your Q-Tips for the test, do the following simple steps: In a small container, place several tablespoons of Rubbing Ethyl alcohol (S.D.M.). Mix in: 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric powder. Mix well. Immerse 10-20 Q-Tips in the mixture. Let dry over a piece of paper. Cut them in 1/2, so you can use both ends for more tests. You'll have a month supply to do your daily pH tests.
17) You must take your daily vitamins and minerals that help combat cancer, and the most important ones are:

BETA CAROTENE - 20,000 I.U.
B-12 - Methylcobalamin version is best! 1000-5000 mcg.
FOLIC ACID - 5 mg.
B-Complex including Multi MINERALS.
VITAMIN C - 2,000 mg

Minerals: Zinc Citrate - 50-100 mg.
Selenium - 100 - 2100 mcg.
18) You must also take Pancreatic enzymes containing Ox bile. Enzymes digests food, parasites, cancer cells, putrid matter left in the bowels. They help break it down ,and keep the body clean. It also helps in reducing inflammation. Take one with each meal.
It is also recommended to take 2 tablets before going to bed at night. If you have cancer, take up to 5 enzyme tablets nightly, as enzymes help digest cancer cells.

SHEILA BER BIOGRAPHY. 2012.

I'm a Microbiological/Chemical Technologist, currently working as a Naturopathic consultant.
I worked in Microbiology and Chemistry, for about 12 years, in the the Pharmaceutical, cosmetics, and toiletry industries.

I started out as a microbiological/Chemical Analyst. I Performed:
chemical and microbiological analysis of raw materials, finished products, variety of packaging materials and their compatibility with different range of finished products.
Chemical analysis tests were carried out with up to date technologically advanced instruments, such as Spectrophotometers, and other apparatus.
Microbiological tests including incubation of samples, and microscopical studies of a variety of bacteria, yeast, and fungus.

I was also involved in Research & Development, and in formulations of large variety of products.
I've carried out many formulations, and modified some when required.
I've advanced several years later, to a higher position with the title of Quality Control Manager.
My work included: 1) Quality Control of raw materials, finished products, packaging.
2)I was responsible for managing and supporting the laboratory personnel.
3)Additionally, I have carried out inspections on the production floor facilities, the equipment, including ventilation system, and other systems. Monthly reporting on the findings, my recommendations, and implementation.
4) Communication with Health Canada,
particularly to obtain their regulatory approvals for new patents and new products. Providing them with documentation, and MSDS information of the raw material involved, in all the formulations.
I have tremendously enjoyed all the above duties.

It's very technically involved work, very interesting, and challenging.

Generally, I'm rather unconventional, though as getting older, I become slightly more conventional. I like things straight, simple, uncomplicated!
I like helping people. I try to view things, situations, from different perspectives.

I refrain judging others, but need to know all the facts and reasons for their particular behaviour, thoughts and actions, before forming any opinion.
I take everything with a grain of salt, always stay alert ,and cautious.

Life has its highs and lows, but I always try to stay afloat. Trying is the key word!

I often check my expectations, and may lower them at times, to keep things in perspective.

Sheila Ber, 2012.

At the age of 20, I've completed 2 years of service, in the ARMY, filling the position of Sergeant. It was definitely, a significant lifetime experience for me.

I have two grown up sons. I love them very dearly!
I enjoy being a caring mother, who is not perfect,. But then who is?

EAT WELL AND LOSE WEIGHT.

My best advice to you:

There are many solutions, and no one solutions works on its own.
Our body chemistry is very individually complex, and one needs to consider all internal and external factors influencing our body.
There is no one magic bullet that is safe to lose weight rapidly.
Multiple solutions, together will achieve synergistic, helpful and lasting effect that you desire to have, while losing weight.

The Dietary Guidelines for distribution of energy nutrients are as follows:

Fat: 30% of total calories
Protein: 25%
Carbohydrates: 45%
Carbs, short for carbohydrates, are a ready and easy supply of energy since they break down quickly. Most carbs will digest completely in about two hours. With that in mind, you should eat carbs that are high in fiber to slow the rush of sugar to the blood stream.
Proteins should be eaten in portions about the size of a deck of cards. Three to four of these portions will provide 60-80 grams (2.1 to 2.8 ounces) of the protein needed each day. If you’re trying to build muscle, it’s a good idea to add a few more grams of protein each day to promote muscle growth.
Saturated fats are not as heart healthy as mono-unsaturated or polyunsaturated fats, but they are important and as much as 10% of your fat intake can come from saturated fats. They are mostly animal fats, including fat from dairy products.
Minimize their consumption, and if you consume more than recommended, you can cancel out saturated fats, by following the steps described below, in this article.

You have to tackle all your health aspects to achieve maximum results:

-Physically: Exercises, body restoration (massage, spa, etc,)
-Mentally: Relaxation, mind restoration, effective ways of dealing with stress, and/or with any mental condition, if present.
-Spiritually: Yoga, meditation, prayer, herbal treatments.
-Chemically: Supplements, vitamins, alkalizing agents.
-Microbially: Probiotics, enzymes, daily elimination of microbial & chemical toxins.
-Electrolytrically: Drink daily: 6-8 glasses water.
Take Minerals to balance your body`s electrolytes: Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium, Calcium. Extremely important for:
metabolism, and efficient electrical conductivity, impacting every cell in your body, the nervous system, all muscles, all glands and organs. The BRAIN and the HEART are particularly
affected, due to their higher electrical activity.
*Optimal electrical conductivity, provides the body with better circulation, more energy, higher level of Oxygen, strong immune system, and improved bodily functions.

First: Have a blood test and check with your family Doctor the levels of the following:
          THYROID
          HEMOGLOBIN
          IRON
         CORTISOL
         CHOLESTEROL
         HORMONES
         ESR

If your Thyroid level is low, treat it!
You can also treat it naturally, by taking Lugol Iodine:8 drops in some filtered water 2x a day for 2 months, and continue for an indefinite period: 8 drops - once a day.

If your Hemoglobin and Iron levels are low: 1) take daily 1-2 Iron capsules, from a vegetable source (a mild form that does not cause constipation). Take it with vitamin C - 500 mg, for optimum absorption. 2) Take B-12: 1000-5000 mcg. (Methylcobalamine) version which assimilates better.

If your Cortisol level is high, its indicatory of your high stress level, and you can treat it naturally, by taking: 1) B-Complex 1-2 tablets daily,
2)L-Theanine (Amino acid) 500 mg. 1-2x a day. It helps with anxiety.
3) Holy Basil 500 mg.  4) Passion flower extract or capsules: 1-3x daily for about 30 days, and stop. Take this herb only when in extreme stress and anxiety.

Check your hormones level, and if you Estrogen level is high, you are Estrogen dominant. You then need to balance your hormones, by getting a bioidentical Progesterone cream 3%-6%, and applying it daily on your skin. Apply it once daily, alternating skin areas: abdomen, front neck, inside mid arms, inside and back of thighs. Bioidentical assimilates more efficiently, it is safer, and it's from a natural source.
Progesterone will make you feel better, more calm, and will help balance your thyroid, including all other systems in your body. For more information you can go to: http://www.hystersisters.com/vb2/article_97232.htm and http://www.hormone-healthy.com/Benefits_of_Natural_Progesterone.htm.

*Estrogen dominance can pose a high risk for developing cancer, if not treated in due course.  Some of the many side effects are, overeating, and higher aggression, in both women and men.

If your ESR level is high, it is indicatory of high inflammation level in the body. Treat it if its high!
Also during weight loss, ESR level fluctuates, so it is recommended to have a blood test every 3-6 months, to address any abnormality.

1. Reduce consumption of saturated fats to a minimum. Our body needs a certain amount, to function optimally.

2. Exercise 15-30 minutes daily. NEVER overexert yourself! It is unhealthy and stressful. Stress will elevate your Cortisol level, which will actually cause you
to gain weight, and thus it's counterproductive.

3. Periodically, alternate the type of exercises that you do. The muscles that you work out eventually get desensitized and will have lower resistance.
Remember: you burn calories faster when your muscles have higher resistance, when you exercise them:

HIGHER MUSCLE RESISTANCE= HIGHER NO. OF CALORIES BURNED,
and
LOWER MUSCLE RESISTANCE= LOWER NO. OF CALORIES BURNED.
and

HIGHER INTENSITY EXERCISE is not always equal to HIGHER MUSCLE RESISTANCE, and thus will not always burn you more calories.

Working out longer, and more intensely, with muscles that no longer have high resistance, will have you burn less calories than you burned previously, when your muscles had higher resistance.
For this reason, it is recommended that you alternate any set of exercises that you do, every few days, and also change the duration time, so that your body does not get desensitized completely to any particular set of exercises.

4. TO CANCEL OUT SATURATED FATS (including CARBS, SUGARS:

Daily take the following:

a) 1-2 spoons EXTRA VIRGIN COCONUT OIL (Healthy Planet Health store), and/or EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL(high quality,
such as "Evoo"). Yes, these oils will balance your HDL/LDL
levels, due to the special chemical composition that they both acquire.
b) 2-3 capsules 1000 mg. LECITHIN. Or 1 spoon granules, 2x daily, in soups, teas, juices.
c) 1 spoon FLAX OIL,
d) 2-4 spoons COD LIVER OIL (also high in Omega),
e) 2 spoons APPLE CIDER VINEGAR in 1 cup warm water, especially after a heavy or fatty meal.
f) Take PROBIOTICS! They aid in digestion, reduce inflammation, enhance metabolism. 1-2 capsules once or twice daily.
g) Take ENZYMES 2-3x daily, 15 minutes before meals, for complete digestion, optimum metabolism, treating yeast infection, and allergies. Enzymes digest putrid matter in your digestive system, also digest microbes, yeast, and even cancer cells.

How Do You Know if You Are Lacking Enzymes?
Heartburn, gas, constipation, bloating, allergies, ulcers, lack of energy and reduced functioning of the immune system may occur when there are not enough enzymes.

**Please note: Yeasty foods and drinks can be addictive!
**When you eat or drink yeasty foods, drinks, such as: PIZZA, PASTRY, WINE, BEER, consume in moderation, and immediately take Probiotics, to get rid of the excessive yeast in your body. Consequently they help reduce your cravings to foods that contain the yeast!

h) BAKING SODA (Arm & Hammer): Take 1/2 tsp Baking Soda, in 1 glass water, along with POTASSIUM 1 capsule 99 mg.(to balance the electrolytes in your body).
*You must take the drink with the Potassium, in order to also maintain a normal blood pressure.

Baking Soda (2NaHCO3): Aids digestion, provides energy, slows/reduces microbial activity, alkalizes your body due to the 3 Oxygen atoms in the soda, thus neutralizing your body acidic pH, due to an acidic diet, comprised of high percentage of sugars, carbs, proteins, fat, and low in vegetables and fruits.

*Body acidic pH will render you tired, sluggish, deprived or lower in oxygen, resulting in higher microbial activity, increase in inflammation level, and greater risk of developing cancer, because CANCER thrives and grows only in an acidic environment. Keep your body pH slightly alkaline at: 7.0 - 7.5!!!

BODY DAILY ELIMINATION: Daily elimination of toxins is crucial for good health. If you are occasionally encountering a problem doing so, you can try one, or more of the following suggestions:

a) Eat a healthy amount of vegetables, whole grains and beans to get a variety of fiber, vitamins and minerals.
b) Drink plenty of water: 6-8 glasses of water daily.
c) Take Probiotics, 1-2 capsules on empty stomach, with 1 cup of warm water, before breakfast.
d) Eat several prunes, to help with quicker bowel motility.
e) Add Lecithin granules: 1 spoon, in your coffee, tea, or food. It works when you add it to a warm/hot liquid. Or you can take 1 capsule 2x daily with warm water.
f) Add 1-2 tablespoons of ground Flax seeds into 1/2 cup of boiled water, stir, leave for a minute, add 1/2 cup lukewarm water, and drink, preferably on empty stomach.
g) Drink special HERBAL LAXATIVE TEA (excellent brand is: Triple Leaf).  It will give you gentle effective relief, especially if you drink it on empty stomach, 1/2 hr. before a meal.

*If none of the above was of any help, then you may have parasites, that cause stubborn constipation, and it would therefore be best that you consult with a Naturopathic Doctor, who can give you a simple test, to find out if you do have them. If you do, you'll be given a simple herbal treatment, to take for about 20 days. The treatment is safe, easy, simple, and effective.

*I can recommend an excellent Naturopathc Doctor: Dr. Diana Enzo, at: 905-477-0200, Address: 3160 Steeles Ave. E. (just W. of Victoria Park Ave.), Toronto.

If you have parasites and you don't seek treatment to eliminate them, you may experience a continuing constipation problem, along with many other undesirable symptoms. To find out if you have parasites, ask yourself the questions:

DO I EXPERIENCE THE FOLLOWING:

Constipation: Some worms, because of their shape and large size. can physically obstruct certain organs. Heavy worm infections can block the common bile duct and the intestinal tract, making elimination infrequent and difficult.

Diarrhoea: Certain parasites, primarily protozoa, produce a prostaglandin (hormone like substance) found in various human tissues) which creates a sodium and chloride loss that leads to frequent watery stools. The diarrhoea process in parasite infection is, therefore, a function of the parasite, not the body's attempt to rid itself of an infectious organism.

Gas and Bloating: Some parasites live in the upper small intestine where the inflammation they produce causes both gas and bloating. The situation can be magnified when hard-to-digest foods such as beans and raw fruits and vegetables are eaten. Persistent abdominal distention is a frequent sign of hidden invaders. These gastrointestinal symptoms can persist intermittently for many months or years if the parasites are not eliminated from the body.

Irritable bowel syndrome: Parasites can irritate inflame, coal, the intestinal cell wall, leading to a variety of gastrointestinal symptoms and malabsorption of vital nutrients, particularly fatty substances. This malabsorption leads to bulky stools and steatorrhea (excess fat in feces).

Joint and muscle aches and pains: Parasites are known to migrate to encyst (become enclosed in a sac) in joint fluids, and worms can encyst in muscles. Once Ads happens, pain becomes evident and is often assumed to be caused by arthritis Joint and muscle pains and inflammation are also the result of tissue damage caused by some parasites of the body's ongoing immune response to then- presence.

Anaemia: Some varieties of intestinal worms attach themselves to the mucosal lining of the intestines and then leach nutrients from the human host. If they are present in large enough numbers, they can create enough blood loss to cause a type of iron deficiency or pernicious

Allergy: Parasites can irritate and sometimes perforate the intestinal lining, increasing bowel permeability to large undigested molecules. This can activate the body's immune response to produce increased levels of Eosinophils, one type of the body's fighter cells. The Eosinophils can inflame body tissue, resulting in an allergic reaction. Like allergy, parasites also trigger an increase in the production of immunoglobulin E (IgE).

Skin conditions: Intestinal worms can cause hives, rashes, weeping eczema, and other allergic-type skin reactions. Cutaneous ulcers, swellings and sores, popular lesions, and itchy dermatitis can afl result from protozoan invasion.

Granuloma: Granulomas are tumour-like masses that encase destroyed large or parasitic eggs. They develop most often in the colon or rectal walls but can also be found in the lungs liver, peritoneum, and uterus.

Nervousness: Parasitic metabolic wastes and toxic substances can serve as irritants to the central nervous system. Restlessness and anxiety are often the result of the systemic parasite infestation. (After completing a herbal cleanse, many people swear that their persistently grouchy mates or relatives have become a lot more pleasant and patient. "The most famous tapeworm of recent years belonged to the late opera singer Maria Callas. She had a serious weight and skin problem. When the tapeworm was detected and removed, ha" weight dropped, her skin improved and her temperament mellowed," says Gittleman.)

Sleep disturbances: Multiple awakening during the night particularly between 2 and 3 AM, are possibly caused by the body's attempts to eliminate toxic wastes via the liver. According to Chinese medicine, these hours are governed by the liver. Sleep disturbances are also caused by nocturnal exits of certain parasites through the anus, creating the intense discomfort and itching.

Teeth grinding: Bruxism - abnormal grinding, clenching, and gnashing of the teeth - has been observed in cases of parasitic infection. These symptoms are most noticeable among sleeping for children. Bruxism may be a nervous response to the internal foreign irritant.

Chronic fatigue: Chronic fatigue symptoms include tiredness, flu-like complaints, apathy, depression, impaired concentration, and faulty memory. Parasites cause these physical, mental, and emotional symptoms through malnutrition resulting from malabsorption of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, and especially vitamins A and B-12.

Immune Dysfunction: Parasites depress immune system functioning by decreasing the secretion of immunoglobulin A (I&A). Their presence continuously stimulates the system response and over time can exhaust this vital defense system, leaving the body open to bacterial and viral infections.

The following conditions might also be tell-tale signs of an invasion: weight gain, excessive hunger, weight loss, bad taste in the mouth and bad breath, asthma, diabetes, epilepsy, acne, migraines, and the biggest killers: heart disease and cancer.

GOOD LUCK!

CROHN'S & MANUKA HONEY.

Manuka Honey has healing properties. One of its properties is H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide) which has the capacity to destroy microbes. It is high in bactericidal Activity. It has to be taken only on EMPTY STOMACH, as you don't want your microbes to feed on it, causing pain and bloating, and also as a result of the release of their toxins, while they are dying off.
Always, take it 1/2 hr. before meals. If you still experience side effects such as above, stop for 2 day, and start again. Honey, is the only sugar (Monosaccharides) that Crohn's bowels are able to digest, without the the damage that other sugars (including Maple sugar) can cause. All HONEY types are high in bactericidal activity, which kills microbes including yeast.

*Please note: If honey isn't stored properly, or comes in an inadequate packaging, it is vulnerable to bacterial contamination. Please store it at room temperature, always with the lid properly closed.
If you still find, after 2 weeks of intake, that you are allergic to honey, stop, and use Stevia, as an alternative.
I used Stevia in teas, coffees, foods, for about 2 years and it was fine. However later on, I developed an allergic reaction (rush). I stopped immediately, and started taking HONEY, and MANUKA HONEY only upon onset of an attack. I'm a firm believer in honey. It is one of the greatest healers.

PROSTATE CANCER
PREVENTION TIPS AND ADVICE by
SHEILA BER.

50% OF ALL CANCERS CAN BE PREVENTED!

1) ALKALIZE YOUR BODY, 2)TAKE DAILY VITAMIN D3, 5,000-10,000 I.U. divided in 2: am & pm. Simple, cheapest way to alkalize: 1/2 tsp Baking Soda in 1 cup water, daily. If your diet consists of excessive Carbs (including sugars) content, and your stress level is very high, you take medication, you smoke, your body pH would definitely be very acidic. You then have to take Baking soda, 2x a day, to ensure your body is NOT ACIDIC, so that it discourages CANCER from thriving.
Note: CANCER CELLS love to thrive in an acidic environment.
It is basic chemistry!

2) Take PROBIOTICS: 1-2 capsules a day.
3) Eats plenty of vegetables and fruits. Less Carbs and fats.
4) Take 1-2 tablespoon Flax oil/Cod liver fish oil daily! They reduce inflammation, thus also lower the risk for cancer.
5) Don't smoke, nor eat smoked foods. Stay away from meat cold cuts. Eat fish, chicken and legumes that have cancer fighting properties.
6) Use toothpastes that are Fluoride and Paraben free. Fluoride competes with the Iodine in your body, thus
causing thyroid and hormones' imbalance.
7) Use cleaning agents that are green and free of volatile harmful chemicals.
8) To replace deodorants: use a small mixture of baking soda and water, and apply under arms etc.
It will keep you smelling fresh for several days. You can repeat daily. It is cheap, effective and simple.
It does not leave stains on your clothing.
9) Refrain from drinking alcohol, if possible. Alcohol raises Estrogen level, fueling cancer growth, (especially hormonal cancer) if excessive.
10) Check periodically your thyroid level. The Thyroid control all bodily functions, including hormones.
All alcoholic drinks contain yeast. Yeast overgrowth is toxic, damaging, and can cause cancer.
11) When you eat or drink yeasty foods, drinks, such as: PIZZA, PASTRY, WINE, BEER, consume in moderation, and immediately take Probiotics, to get rid of the excessive yeast in your body. Probiotics also digest and kill yeast.
*Please note: A strong presence of Yeast/Candida can pose a high risk of developing breast cancer.
12) Daily check your urine pH level. Optimum pH is: 6.5-7.5.9).
13)Do blood test, once in 6 months, and check your ESR level. It indicates the inflammation rate in your body. High inflammation level can induce cancer growth. Check also your liver status.
14) Check your hormones level. If your Estrogen level is high, you are then considered to be Estrogen dominant, and therefore, at a greater risk of developing cancer.
To balance your hormones, it is recommended to use Bioidentical Progesterone cream 3%-6%, once or 2x daily.
You simply apply it on the skin, daily alternating areas: abdomen, front neck, inside mid-arms, inside and back of thighs.
You'll require a Doctor's prescription. Any Dr. with an alternative approach will be happy to assist.
Bioidentical Progesterone is beneficial for: Thyroid balance, bone health, heart health, nervous system and much more.
For more information go to: http://www.hystersisters.com/vb2/article_97232.htm and http://www.hormone-healthy.com/Benefits_of_Natural_Progesterone.htm.
15) Check with a Naturopathic Doctor, whether you have parasites, particularly the FLUKES, that cause cancer! The test is brief and simple, and it's done through Electro Dermal Testing.
*I had breast cancer, and found out through this test, that I had Flukes that took over, nearly 70% of my body, when the cancer was already present. Had I known earlier, that I had them, and got an adequate treatment, cancer would not have been the result.
You can get Flukes, by eating vegetables, improperly washed, also fish and meat insufficiently cooked.
16) Keep your stress level down. Find ways to deal with it effectively, so that it won't leave a negative, toxic impact on your body, that may result in cancer.

Body chemistry: Stress, acidic diet, medications, alcohol, cigarette smoking, parasites (including yeast, fungus), all contribute to acidic body pH. It is extremely difficult to stay slightly alkaline at all times, for most people, unless one takes action to reverse the acidic body pH. Simplest way to alkalize is to: drink 1/2 teaspoon BAKING SODA in 1 cup water, with 1 POTASSIUM tablet (to keep your electrolytes balanced). Do it 2-3 a day. Baking Soda is harmless, provides you with energy, added Oxygen, better digestion, has detoxifying effect, and neutralizes your body acidity.
If your acidity level is much too high, you need to repeat the above 2-3 times a day, so that your body will be slightly alkaline: pH 7.0-7.5.
**To test your blood pH, you simply check the pH in your Urine, 2x a day. If you have cancer, you need to check at least 3x a day. Cancer further acidifies the body, by releasing its toxins.
A simple test is done with a Q-Tip (coated with Turmeric, and has light yellow color) and is placed under the stream of urine. If the pH is acidic, it will remain yellow, and if it is alkaline, the color of the Q-Tip will appear in color ranging from orange to red wine color.
Orange to red wine, are the colors that you want to have. If you see yellow on your Q-tip, immediately, alkalize, by taking your Baking Soda drink, as described above.

**To prepare your Q-Tips for the test, do the following simple steps: In a small container, place several tablespoons of Rubbing Ethyl alcohol (S.D.M.). Mix in: 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric powder. Mix well. Immerse 10-20 Q-Tips in the mixture. Let dry over a piece of paper. Cut them in 1/2, so you can use both ends for more tests. You'll have a month supply to do your daily pH tests.
17) You must take your daily vitamins and minerals that help combat cancer, and the most important ones are:

BETA CAROTENE - 20,000 I.U.
B-12 - Methylcobalamin version is best! 1000-5000 mcg.
FOLIC ACID - 5 mg.
B-Complex including Multi MINERALS.
VITAMIN C - 2,000 mg

Minerals: Zinc Citrate - 50-100 mg.
Selenium - 100 - 2100 mcg.

18) You must also take Pancreatic enzymes containing Ox bile. Enzymes digests food, parasites, cancer cells, putrid matter left in the bowels. They help break it down ,and keep the body clean. It also helps in reducing inflammation. Take one with each meal.

It is also recommended to take 2 tablets before going to bed at night. If you have cancer, take up to 5 enzyme tablets nightly, as enzymes help digest cancer cells.

causing thyroid and hormones' imbalance.
7) Use cleaning agents that are green and free of volatile harmful chemicals.
8) To replace deodorants: use a small mixture of baking soda and water, and apply under arms etc.
It will keep you smelling fresh for several days. You can repeat daily. It is cheap, effective and simple.
It does not leave stains on your clothing.
9) Refrain from drinking alcohol, if possible. Alcohol raises Estrogen level, fuelling cancer growth, (especially hormonal cancer) if excessive.
10) Check periodically your thyroid level. The Thyroid controls all bodily functions, including hormones.
All alcoholic drinks contain yeast. Yeast overgrowth is toxic, damaging, and can cause cancer.
11) When you eat or drink yeasty foods, drinks, such as: PIZZA, PASTRY, WINE, BEER, consume in moderation, and immediately take Probiotics, to get rid of the excessive yeast in your body. Probiotics also digest and kill yeast.
*Please note: A strong presence of Yeast/Candida can pose a high risk of developing breast cancer.
12) Daily check your urine pH level. Optimum pH is: 6.5-7.5.9).
13)Do blood test, once in 6 months, and check your ESR level. It indicates the inflammation rate in your body. High inflammation level can induce cancer growth. Check also your liver status.
14) Check your hormones level. If your Estrogen level is high, you are then considered to be Estrogen dominant, and therefore, at a greater risk of developing cancer.
To balance your hormones, it is recommended to use Bioidentical Progesterone cream 3%-6%, once or 2x daily.
You simply apply it on the skin, daily alternating areas: abdomen, front neck, inside mid-arms, inside and back of thighs.
You'll require a Doctor's prescription. Any Dr. with an alternative approach will be happy to assist.
Bioidentical Progesterone is beneficial for: Thyroid balance, bone health, heart health, nervous system and much more.

15) Check with a Naturopathic Doctor, whether you have parasites, particularly the FLUKES, that cause cancer! The test is brief and simple, and it's done through Electro Dermal testing.
*I had breast cancer, and found out through this test, that I had Flukes that took over, nearly 70% of my body, when the cancer was already present. Had I known earlier, that I had them, and got an adequate treatment, cancer would not have been the result.
You can get Flukes, by eating vegetables, improperly washed, also fish and meat insufficiently cooked.
16) Keep your stress level down. Find ways to deal with it effectively, so that it won't leave a negative, toxic impact on your body, that may result in cancer.
Body chemistry: Stress, acidic diet, medications, alcohol, cigarette smoking, parasites (including yeast, fungus), all contribute to acidic body pH. It is extremely difficult to stay slightly alkaline at all times, for most people, unless one takes action to reverse the acidic body pH. Simplest way to alkalize is to: drink 1/2 teaspoon BAKING SODA in 1 cup water, with 1 POTASSIUM tablet (to keep your electrolytes balanced). Do it 2-3 a day. Baking Soda is harmless, provides you with energy, added Oxygen, better digestion, has detoxifying effect, and neutralizes your body acidity.
If your acidity level is much too high, you need to repeat the above 2-3 times a day, so that your body will be slightly alkaline: pH 7.0-7.5.
**To test your blood pH, you simply check the pH in your Urine, 2x a day. If you have cancer, you need to check at least 3x a day. Cancer further acidifies the body, by releasing its toxins.
A simple test is done with a Q-Tip (coated with Turmeric, and has light yellow color) and is placed under the stream of urine. If the pH is acidic, it will remain yellow, and if it is alkaline, the color of the Q-Tip will appear in color ranging from orange to red wine color.
Orange to red wine, are the colors that you want to have. If you see yellow on your Q-tip, immediately, alkalize, by taking your Baking Soda drink, as described above.

**To prepare your Q-Tips for the test, do the following simple steps: In a small container, place several tablespoons of Rubbing Ethyl alcohol (S.D.M.). Mix in: 1/2 teaspoon Turmeric powder. Mix well. Immerse 10-20 Q-Tips in the mixture. Let dry over a piece of paper. Cut them in 1/2, so you can use both ends for more tests. You'll have a month supply to do your daily pH tests.
17) You must take your daily vitamins and minerals that help combat cancer, and the most important ones are:

BETA CAROTENE - 20,000 I.U.
B-12 - Methylcobalamin version is best! 1000-5000 mcg.
FOLIC ACID - 5 mg.
B-Complex including Multi MINERALS.
VITAMIN C - 2,000 mg

Minerals: Zinc Citrate - 50-100 mg.
Selenium - 100 - 2100 mcg.
18) You must also take Pancreatic enzymes containing Ox bile. Enzymes digests food, parasites, cancer cells, putrid matter left in the bowels. They help break it down ,and keep the body clean. It also helps in reducing inflammation. Take one with each meal.
It is also recommended to take 2 tablets before going to bed at night. If you have cancer, take up to 5 enzyme tablets nightly, as enzymes help digest cancer cells.

CROHN'S DISEASE TIPS AND BEST ADVICE by SHEILA BER.

MY BEST ADVICE TO YOU:

Vitamin D3 deficiency is a major factor for Crohn's. I take 8,000 - 10,000 I.U. a day, divided by two, 2x a day.

Try like myself taking the above dosage, but always with a spoon of Flax or Fish oil, to optimize absorption. Vitamin D will give you energy.
Eliminate sugars and replace with Honey in everything! Honey is a mono-saccharides, and easily digested by Crohn's afflicted bowels, therefore less bacterial growth that causes inflammation. Try also take 1/2 tspn of MANUKA HONEY, on empty stomach 1 hour before a meal. It heals any wound inside and outside the body!!! *If you are allergic to fructose, do not eat honey! Try Stevia.
*Please note: If honey isn't stored properly, or comes in an inadequate packaging, it is vulnerable to bacterial contamination. Please store it at room temperature, always with the lid properly closed.
It helps against any abdominal pain! I tried it when I had pain from Crohn's attack, and the pain was gone.($12 a small jar) but lasts for a long time. SUGARS- IN ANY FORM, IS EXTREMELY HARMFUL TO THE INFLAMED BOWELS OF CROHN'S SUFFERERS. Try to avoid smoking, and coffee only once a day or every other day! Instead of coffee, to be alert and awake, put a dash or two of CAYENNE PEPPER into 1/2 cup of warm water, or into salads, soups, any dishes. It does wonders! It also takes pain away!!!
Taking daily: 2 Tablespoons of APPLE CIDER VINEGAR in 1 cup of warm water, helps tremendously! Absolutely!
Also I take 1 baby aspirin 81 mg. every day, or every other day. It keeps inflammation down, and the blood thin, due to high ESR associated with Crohn's disease. It prevents potential strokes in older adults, due to associated High blood Platelets count, and high ESR!

You will not regret implementing the above suggestions, as you are getting them from a Crohn's sufferer like yourself, who is mature in years, and with experience, and who has tried everything. I have many more helpful suggestions for emergency situations. If you'd like to get the information, you can e-mail me: blueiris0000 @ yahoo.com If you don't try, you'll never know...
Check with your G.P. your thyroid level,and hemoglobin level as well.You might need Iron pill (better from vegetable source), www.vitacost.com sells them cheaply - Item #CTL4026594. Take 3 a day with vitamin C - 500-1000 mg, for 3 months.
When in intense pain, for immediate relief, take also 1 tablespoon Colloidal silver, but swash in the mouth for a few seconds, then swallow. In 5-7 minutes, the pain subsides.
Additionally take: ROBERT'S COMPLEX Enzymatic therapy ( $20.- ), which is extremely helpful to avert an attack.
Take it 3x a day, for several days only, on an empty stomach until you feel better.
Crohn's pain, abdominal pain, can be alleviated effectively also, with boiled ( 5 min.) herbal concoction: Sage, Mint, Anise. Drink warm, several times/day. It's very healing and detoxifying. Don't forget the MANUKA HONEY also for the pain! Don't: eat fried food!
Don't drink raw milk! You must minimize drinking milk. You can drinks 2-3 cups a week, but you must boil it first!!! Because milk has a specific bacteria that aggravates severely the Crohn's, but if you boil it, you should be OK.
Don't drink alcohol, as all alcoholic drinks contain yeast. Yeast overgrowth is toxic, damaging, and can cause inflammation.

7a) When you eat or drink yeasty foods, drinks, such as: PIZZA, PASTRY, WINE, BEER, consume in moderation, and immediately take Probiotics, to get rid of the excessive yeast in your body. Probiotics also digest and kill yeast.
Do eat: 2-3x a week SALMON fish, and also chicken. These are healing to the bowels, and anti-inflammatory. Also good for the heart, brain, and for depression.
Take: Cod liver oil: 2-3 tablespoons daily. It is anti inflammatory, and keeps you blood vessels in good shape. It also helps ward off depression.
Eat rice daily, if you can, until you get better. You can eat more potatoes and more bread (whole wheat or 7 grains). Rice is the only one that really best agrees with Crohn's. You can cook it in many ways.
you can even add raisins, silvered almonds, add 3 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoon Grape seed oil (best oil) and 1/2 teaspoon butter, nutmeg, some cinnamon, grated lemon peel (1/3 teaspoon), 1/2 cup milk, or condensed milk (in a can). Bring to a boil, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Eat cool or warm.
The worst thing that you can do is feel sorry for yourself. I know Crohn's can cause depression. But you have to remain strong, positive, and hopeful! You must move on with life.
You have to be flexible when it comes to food, and give up the items that cause you trouble (inflammation).
* If you make a mistake and you eat something you shouldn't, or if stress causes you an attack, despite all efforts, don't give up! Keep fighting it, and do all the tips given to you in this massage.
It takes time to heal, and slowly you will heal, I promise. However, you have to make some changes, you just have to, or you could suffer big time.
You just have to visualize your intestines, and what you put into it!
Always take HONEY (MANUKA) and PROBIOTICS (`Primal Defense` is best!)
If you are allergic to fructose, do not eat honey!
Remember: that the intestines can heal any at any moment, but slowly, and surely.
However, you have to control what you eat, and how much. Just try to look inside you. Stay calm, try not to worry.
If you feel depressed, you must take B-Complex 2-3 times a day, and L-theanine (amino acid) 1-2 a day. Drink coffee: once a day enough! even diluted (it elevates your Serotonin level). Take 2 tablespoon cod liver oil a day, as it fights depression and inflammation!
Chinese food can be oily. If it's vegies and rice, and not oily, it's OK. Soya sauce aggravates Crohn's, so stay away from it. Orange is also very aggravating. Instead of lemon in the food, use lime, as it is better for Crohn's. Chicken Teriyaki has soya sauce and it can aggravate. Steak is good, potatoes I find OK,
add olive oil on them, some parsley, lime juice and salt, it's healing and excellent tasting.
Eggs I find that if you eat 3 times a week, and then rest 3 days, alternately, your body does not develop intolerance (allergy) for eggs. But then it is individual.
White flour in any form (bread, cakes, cookies etc) is not good for Crohn's. I eat whole wheat bread, or 7 grains, but keep it to minimum, as the flour converts to sugars (polysaccharides, disaccharides) and your bowels will have difficulty digesting them. Complex Carbs such as rice (Basmti is best!), some potatoes, are recommended.
Sandwich with meat is OK, only if it is cooked chicken or meat, not the cold cuts!
Cold cuts will cause an immediate attack, and more inflammation and as a result. The bowels can react negatively, including forming a blockage.
Don't eat: Apples, oranges, pizza (for now).
You can eat: Bananas( very good, eat 2-3x a day), broccoli (very good, but must be washed and boiled for 3-5 minutes) to make it easier on the bowels to digest). Carrots are very good, but now, until your bowels get better, you must cook the carrots for 10 minutes, for easier digestion. Tomatoes are very good, but can irritate if your bowels are very sensitive. You man eat fresh tomatoes with sprinkled on olive oil, and it tastes yammi, also less irritating.
Pizza 1-2 slices are OK, but because of the yeast in the crust, you must take 2 capsules of PROBIOTICS right away, to digest and kill the yeast. Otherwise, it might give you pain and bloating.
Pancakes are Ok, if you eat 2-3, with only HONEY, no other syrups, not even Maple syrup, due to the sugar (disaccharides)content in them that can damage your bowels.

GOOD LUCK!
