Micronutrient Deficiency

Micronutrient deficiency is one of the most important causes of health problems. If a person’s digestive system functions fully, they are able to synthesize all amino acids themselves, even those we call essential. However, macro- and micronutrients require a different approach: the source of these nutrients must be food, because no living organism can produce them on its own. Micronutrients such as zinc, lithium, iodine, bromine, chromium, selenium, silicon, iron, fluorine, manganese and others are needed in our daily diet, yet soil depletion reduces their concentration in foods more and more every year. Dietary supplements are not an ideal solution, because micronutrients are absorbed most effectively from food, not in isolated form. For farmers, enriching soil with micronutrients is expensive and complicated, because it requires major changes in agriculture and knowledge is often lacking. In addition, heat treatment, various other forms of food processing, and the use of preservatives further reduce the amount of micronutrients in food.

 Here are some diseases whose development is promoted by long-term micronutrient deficiency:

    osteoporosis, osteochondrosis, scoliosis,

    overweight,

    diabetes,

    arterial hypertension,

    cardiovascular diseases,

    anemia,

    diseases of the hair, nails and skin,

    delayed physical and mental development,

    infertility and decreased potency,

    weakened immunity,

    bronchial asthma and allergy,

    gastritis, dysbacteriosis and chronic colitis.

 

 

Even a deficiency of a single mineral can cause serious health problems

The organs of the human body and their systems are designed so that in everyday life they operate at only about one fifth of their maximum capacity, providing a large safety reserve. However, if the diet lacks a mineral and it is replaced by another, this reserve of resilience decreases. For example, frequent consumption of heat-treated food can lead to silicon deficiency, as a result of which the body begins to use calcium instead. If there is no magnesium, calcium is not deposited in the bones; and without silicon, bones cannot become strong and stable. This leads to deterioration in tissue quality. If a blood vessel is affected, tiny cracks may appear in the endothelium, where atherosclerotic plaques are deposited.

 

 

Medications

Side effects of medications are one of the leading causes of death in many countries. Pharmaceutical therapy does not concentrate a drug’s action only on the target tissues. It also affects receptors of the heart, vascular and nervous systems, disrupting their function. When a medication enters the body to enhance or weaken some function, it inevitably interacts with and affects at least one, and possibly many, other functions. The problem of drug side effects is complicated by the fact that certain signals or protein molecules may be used simultaneously in different organs and tissues, where they perform completely different functions. Multicellular organisms can survive with far fewer genes than scientists once thought, because the same gene products (proteins) are used to perform different functions—much like we use letters of the alphabet to write all the words of a language. Pharmaceutical drugs suppress symptoms, but most of them do not address the root cause of the problem.

It should be taken into account that any medication that does not resemble a food product is perceived as a foreign substance, forcing the entire body—and especially the liver—to use enormous amounts of resources. This is a complex process that consumes large quantities of minerals, vitamins, oxygen, energy, and so on.

 

 

Beneficial (symbiotic) microflora

Around 3 kg of symbiotic, or beneficial, microflora live in the human intestines—about 500 species of microorganisms. More than 95–98% of them are bifidobacteria and lactobacilli. Acidophilic rods, yeasts and E. coli bacteria make up about 1–2%. Beneficial microflora performs several important functions. It covers the intestinal villi with a thin protective layer called a biofilm and prevents toxins, helminth eggs, yeasts, etc. from entering our body. It performs an immunostimulating function: it stimulates interferon production and immunoglobulin synthesis, which in turn stimulate leukocyte activity. Beneficial microflora synthesizes B-group vitamins, amino acids and enzymes. It acts as a sorbent, binding preservatives, poisons, toxins, etc. Beneficial microflora is negatively affected by abrupt climate change, stress, antibiotics, changes in hormonal background, parasitic and fungal invasions, and of course food choices, which are extremely important.

However, there is another factor: lacto- and bifidobacteria in the human intestines live in an oxygen-free environment, but those that are grown artificially in the presence of oxygen are unable to survive once they enter the oxygen-free intestinal tract. In addition, pathogenic intestinal microflora that has overgrown due to an inadequate diet does not allow symbiotic microflora to take hold. The bifidobacteria and lactobacilli added to yogurts and kefirs—if they were exposed to oxygen during cultivation—are essentially mutants, which means they will not help eliminate dysbacteriosis.

 

 

Bacterial balance in the intestinal tract

By about the age of 3, children’s intestinal microflora is already forming, but if it does not fully develop, the child will be frail and frequently ill. Antibiotics are especially dangerous if they are given before the age of 3. Problems can also arise if the mother has taken antibiotics during pregnancy or breastfeeding, because they reach the child through the placenta or milk. Bacterial balance is health; imbalance—when one bacterial group ‘pushes out’ another—is disease.

There is a bacterial group called Firmicutes (Lat. Firmicutes) that is responsible for fat accumulation. They synthesize short-chain fatty acids from plant fibers. If these bacteria prevail, fat synthesis outpaces breakdown and a person gains weight. In addition, Firmicutes suppress the satiety hormones leptins. Another group is Bacteroidetes, which stimulates intestinal cells to send immune signals in order to recruit immune cells. When intestinal cells are attacked, an antigen–antibody autoimmune reaction begins. Systemic inflammation develops, spreads throughout the body, and manifests as a wide variety of diseases. For Firmicutes to multiply, they need fiber (beta-glucans, psyllium, inulin, pectins). Fermented fruits and vegetables fit well here.

By the way, experiments by scientists with mice that had a sterile intestinal tract showed that, for example, when intestinal contents from old mice were transferred to young mice with sterile intestines, those mice aged rapidly. When intestinal contents from obese mice were transferred to sterile mice, they began to gain weight. Diseases could also be transmitted in exactly the same way.

 

 

Propolis can be useful as an aid to improve intestinal microflora

Compared with antibiotics: when various groups of antibiotics are used—such as macrolides, cephalosporins, aminoglycosides and others—both undesirable and beneficial bacteria are destroyed, yet the empty space does not remain empty; it is taken over by fungi. The difference is that propolis, compared with antibiotics, also acts against viruses by interfering with their reproduction, and it also prevents fungi from spreading, so beneficial bacteria are not displaced. In addition, bacteria do not develop resistance to propolis.

 

 

What are the functions and characteristics of beneficial bacteria (lacto- and bifido-)?

First, they are anaerobic, because they do not need oxygen. Second, they do not use the same nutrient base as humans; they eat only fiber and cellulose. They ‘like’ turnips, radishes, rhubarb, Jerusalem artichokes, bran, alfalfa, and all fibrous fruits and vegetables. Beneficial bacteria synthesize about 30–50 ml of ethyl alcohol per day, which protects our blood vessels from thrombosis. They synthesize B-group vitamins, including B12 and folic acid. They release substances (protectors) that protect the intestinal mucosa from injury and microcracks. In this way they help prevent ulcers and erosions, as well as the development of oncological processes.

Beekeeping products also work well for maintaining beneficial bacteria. Bee bread helps restore beneficial microflora. It is the only product found in nature in which these bacteria are present in a preserved form. It is important to note that if you use bee bread as a means—or ‘seeds’—to restore beneficial bacteria, it should be chewed as little as possible, in order to protect the bacteria from the action of gastric juice and bile, which destroy them.

 

 

Dysbiosis

Dysbiosis, or dysbacteriosis, is a qualitative and quantitative disruption of the biological balance between pathogenic and symbiotic microflora. It is a typical problem of 21st-century society. Dysbiosis is found in almost all diseases of the intestinal tract. The consequence of using antibiotics and immunosuppressants is always dysbiosis. For example, after antibiotic therapy, it takes 2 months for beneficial microflora to recover fully, because it is suppressed by fungi, which antibiotics usually do not affect. Therefore during this period antifungal agents should be used—even propolis. Anemia, immunodeficiency, allergy, bronchial asthma, serious skin diseases, oncology—one of the main causes of these problems is dysbiosis.

Dyspeptic syndrome, or intolerance to certain products (for example, milk), indicates dysbiosis.

The gastrointestinal tract is one of the most complex systems in the human body; only the brain is more complex. Before birth, the child is in sterile conditions inside the mother. Only at birth does the first contact with bacteria, viruses, etc. occur, which means that a newborn’s intestines are sterile. With the first sip of mother’s milk (colostrum), inherited immunity is passed to the child. Beneficial bacteria are received—such as bifidobacteria, lactobacilli, acidophilic intestinal rods, and others. In the first 24 hours of life, immunity for a lifetime is formed. Beneficial microflora becomes established on the intestinal walls and will remain there for the rest of life. If beneficial bacteria do not enter with mother’s milk, the space will not stay empty—harmful ones will settle in: staphylococci, enterococci, streptococci, fungi, and so on, which will compete for the nutrient base, consume oxygen, and release toxins. If, instead of mother’s milk, the child is first given glucose, the first taste impression forms incorrectly, and later in life there will be a high probability of developing diabetes.

 

 

Health comes from the garden, but diseases come from the barn

The cause of inflammatory processes in the human body is the fermentation and putrefaction of food products—which will happen anyway, only not outside when products spoil on their own, but already inside the human body.

Rotting apples or, for example, vegetables do not produce the same smell as boiled, rotting meat, cottage cheese or eggs. The products of putrefaction of protein foods are indole, skatole and mercaptan, which easily pass through the intestinal mucosa and enter the bloodstream, thereby overloading both the liver and the immune system. The amount of free radicals increases, which damages DNA—then the path to oncology. When hard-to-digest proteins are consumed in large amounts, immune system activity increases. The likelihood of inflammatory foci in internal organs rises, followed by swelling of inflamed tissues and impaired blood supply, and thus metabolic disturbances.

Meat and protein-containing dairy products are poorly digested. As a result of putrefaction, methane is released, which destroys vitamin B6. Carcinogens and water-insoluble mucus form. Over the years they accumulate, become harder, and in the intestines interfere with nutrient absorption. As a result, one wants to eat more. The sticky mass in the intestines makes peristalsis more difficult. The smooth intestinal musculature does not have enough strength to expel it. Constipation develops, and acids and oxidized lipids pass through the walls of the large intestine into the blood. This can manifest as headaches and decreased blood-flow dynamics, because the blood has thickened.

Normal intestinal wall thickness should be 2 mm. However, in modern people it can be even several millimeters. Since the length of the intestines is several meters, people with large bellies are encountered quite often.

 

 

Mitochondrion

Mitochondria are cellular organelles that release energy in the form of ATP. If, for various reasons, a cell does not receive energy and nutrients, it stops functioning and dies.

 

 

Organs

Because tissues consist of cells, as the number of dead cells increases, tissue function is disrupted. Tissues form organs, so organ function is disrupted. Organs form systems (humans have 12 systems—nervous, digestive, respiratory, etc.). If an organ performs its functions poorly, the overall functionality of the body decreases, and the next step is the beginning of organ breakdown. Symptoms may appear even when the initial stage of organ breakdown has already begun. If changes occur in organs and systems, the consequences may be irreversible.

 

 

Parasites

In nature, humans do not live alone. Many living organisms live with us—organisms that have lived on Earth much longer than we have and are better adapted. Even if cells receive a complete diet, it may prove useless if cleansing of the body is not carried out. Parasites have destroyed far more people than all wars combined throughout history. According to WHO data, one third of all deaths are associated with the presence of parasites (bacteria, viruses, fungi, helminths). A person may have more than 100 types of parasites, from microorganisms to roundworms and even some tapeworm species several meters long. In the tissues and cells of our body, parasites live, eat and excrete just as we do. The toxins they release acidify our body and harm it in other ways, reduce quality of life, and manipulate our brains. Infected people become aggressive, uncontrollable, angry, nervous and depressed. Hippocrates already said: if there is a disease, there is also a causative agent. Statistics and studies indicate that every person is a carrier of some parasite, from fungi and viruses to ascarids and tapeworms, often also in combination. Parasites live in various organs, tissues and cells, camouflage themselves well, are great fans of vitamins and micronutrients, and they also do not disdain leukocytes and erythrocytes. According to worldwide data, 95% of the population is infected with various parasites, which each year cause about 16 million deaths, including so-called non-parasitic diseases such as arthritis, cardiovascular disease, cancer, bronchial asthma, allergy, diabetes, stomach ulcer, chronic fatigue syndrome. All of these diseases can be the consequence of chronic parasitic infection.

A person can become infected in many different ways, for example by not washing hands, through contact with pets, by eating unwashed fruits and vegetables, and so on. For example, in one gram of feces from a sick dog there can be up to 40,000 toxocara eggs. Eggs are found everywhere—children’s sandboxes, squares, parks, areas around apartment buildings. The disease is diagnosed by determining antibodies to the parasite in blood serum. Even if worm eggs are not found in stool tests, this still does not mean that these parasites are absent, because a worm does not lay eggs every day.

 

 

What signs indicate the presence of parasites?

  1. Teeth grinding. This can be observed especially in small children. Children are capricious, hyperactive—or the opposite. They get tired quickly. Tearful, with pale skin. Prolonged cough. Frequent chronic illnesses: angina, bronchitis, tonsillitis, sinusitis, pain around the navel, itching in the anal area.

  2. Anemia. Many parasites eat blood cells; one ascarid consumes 35–40 ml of blood per day.

  3. Chronic fatigue syndrome. All parasites eat the very best, especially vitamins A and B12, and they also excrete in our body.

  4. Gastrointestinal syndrome. Most parasites live in the small and large intestines, causing mechanical obstruction of the bile ducts and the intestinal lumen, erosions and ulcers of the intestinal wall, gas and bloating. A person may have constipation or diarrhea.

  5. Sleep disturbances (a person gets up at night to eat), nervousness and agitation, because cells are starving and are poisoned by toxic substances released by parasites.

  6. Problem skin. Parasites cause hives, rashes, eczema and other allergic-type skin reactions, alopecia, focal depigmentation of the skin, papillomas, dermatitis, psoriasis, neurodermatitis, and so on.

  7. Pain in joints and muscles. It is known that parasites can move around the body, choosing the most convenient substances for them, for example synovial fluid and muscles.

  8. Immune disorders. Parasites weaken immunity by reducing immunoglobulin secretion.

It has been observed that, for example, diabetes can be caused by long-term parasitism of a trematode in pancreatic tissues, which draws from it everything it needs, poisoning it with its toxic end products of metabolism.

 

 

The consequences of the same cause are dealt with by very different specialists.

With intoxication and hypoxia caused by the accumulation of toxins and a deficiency of alkaline micronutrients, as well as a lack of water,

people seek help from a wide range of specialists for the consequences of the same underlying cause.

Liver — to a pulmonologist,

elevated blood sugar — to an endocrinologist,

blood pressure and heart rhythm — to a cardiologist,

hemoglobin — to a hematologist,

veins — to a phlebologist,

rectum — to a proctologist,

cholesterol — to all sorts of specialists.

 

 

Iron-deficiency anemia

Anemia is not really a disease, but rather a symptom of other diseases, so it is necessary to determine the causes that led to it. Anemia manifests as a low hemoglobin level and a reduced number of erythrocytes. Hemoglobin is responsible for delivering oxygen through the blood, and if this function is performed insufficiently, the consequences of hypoxia can be very serious.

Here are some signs of anemia:

  🪾 low blood pressure,

  🪾 yellowish eyes; the skin is also yellowish and pale,

  🪾 fatigue, headache; there may even be fainting or dizziness,

  🪾 enlarged spleen,

  🪾 palpitations, chest pain, angina,

  🪾 shortness of breath

The lifespan of an erythrocyte is about 120 days, but if it is shorter, a type of anemia such as hemolytic anemia develops. This type may develop when there is a deficiency of vitamins B12 and B9 or iron. Vitamins C and B12 are antagonists, so an excessively large amount of vitamin C can have an effect. There can also be dyserythropoietic anemia (disorders of blood formation in the bone marrow), posthemorrhagic anemia (blood loss), or aplastic anemia (disorders of hematopoiesis in the bone marrow).

If there is a large loss of erythrocytes, an enzyme immunoassay blood test should be done urgently. The cause may be trauma or parasites such as Giardia, ascarids, opisthorchis, ankylostoma. It may also be radiation exposure and vitamin B12 deficiency, so eating meat and taking iron tablets is unlikely to help in such a situation. Also, if the body lacks copper, there will be iron-deficiency anemia even if iron is fully sufficient.

If a doctor tells a patient that their blood hemoglobin level and iron are low because they do not eat meat, that is a serious reason to question that doctor’s professional competence. Because if there is no major sudden blood loss, you consume greens, you have enough vitamin B12, and there are no parasites such as ascaridiasis or giardiasis, then hemoglobin cannot be low.

 

 

C-reactive protein (CRP)

C-reactive protein (CRP) is a protein in the blood that is produced mainly by the liver, and its level increases in the presence of inflammation in the body. It is widely used in medicine as a marker of inflammation. When an infection occurs (especially bacterial), tissue damage, an autoimmune process, or other inflammation, the liver starts producing more CRP, and its level in the blood can rise within just a few hours.

A CRP test does not show the exact cause of inflammation—only that inflammation is present. It helps determine whether there is inflammation in the body, assess the severity of inflammation, and monitor the effectiveness of treatment (e.g., antibiotic therapy).

If CRP is < 5 mg/L, this is the norm (usually there is no inflammation). 5–40 mg/L suggests mild to moderate inflammation (e.g., a viral infection), while 40–200 mg/L indicates marked inflammation (often a bacterial infection). If it is > 200 mg/L, this is very severe inflammation (e.g., sepsis).

It should be kept in mind that CRP levels can change rapidly (rising and falling within a few days), because it is a non-specific indicator that must always be evaluated together with symptoms and other tests. Elevated CRP in itself is not a disease, but a signal that something is happening in the body.

Causes of Diseases

Several centuries ago, medicine of that era blamed evil spirits for all ailments and drilled holes in the head to expel them. Nowadays, bacteria, viruses, and inherited genes are blamed for everything – a harmful bacterium entered a healthy person and caused inflammation or another pathological process. This is a convenient theory that avoids considering the overall condition of a person. The doctor's task is to kill this bacterium and stop the process it caused. The person will then become healthy and happy again. The logic is that any healthy person can become sick if a bacterium enters their body. In nature, viruses and bacteria are not evil; if they were, humans would have been extinct long ago.

No animal or plant can be independent of what it consumes.

Modern children are the fourth generation to grow up in a chemically saturated world: chemical food, chemotherapy drugs, hormonal preparations, antibiotics, vaccines, pollution of air and water, various electromagnetic radiations. Their immune barriers are already compromised before they are born.

All systems (cardiovascular, respiratory, excretory, etc.) in the human body normally function with a 20 – 30% load, except for the digestive system, which operates at 100% load in modern humans.

More than 2000 years ago, the founder of medicine, Hippocrates, said - how can one understand human diseases if they do not know from what they feed.

Nature has designed and adapted a specific diet for every type of animal, including humans. If the diet is not as intended, or even if it includes foods not found in nature, a large amount of waste, including toxic substances, is produced. If these substances enter in large amounts and the excretory system cannot eliminate them in time, they begin to accumulate and provide a breeding ground for various organisms.

 

 

Metabolic Syndrome

Metabolic syndrome is a complex of disorders that affects arterial pressure regulation, endothelial function, as well as carbohydrate, fat, and lipid metabolism. It leads to the conversion of excess energy into fat. Initially, symptoms may not be noticeable, but they will appear later.

Here are some warning symptoms:

  ⚠️ Arterial hypertension,

  ⚠️ Visceral obesity, which is the most dangerous type and manifests as a protruding abdomen (increased waist circumference),

  ⚠️ Dyslipidemia, which is a disruption of the normal physiological balance of lipid levels in the blood (determined by blood tests measuring triglycerides and cholesterol),

  ⚠️ Elevated glycated hemoglobin levels,

  ⚠️ Increased insulin levels in the blood (a prediabetic condition).

Excess (unused) sugar in the body promotes fat accumulation around internal organs, leading to impaired blood flow within these organs. The immune system responds by producing interleukin, which damages all the cells it comes into contact with. This negatively affects blood vessel walls, the nervous system, joints, liver, kidneys, and more. A systemic chronic inflammation develops in the body, contributing to various diseases and acting as a factor in premature aging.

The accumulated excess fat makes tissues less sensitive to insulin. At the cellular level, autophagy worsens, meaning the body's self-cleansing ability declines, thereby increasing the risk of cancer.

Initially, a person may feel fine, a so-called "genre classic": sedentary lifestyle, inadequate diet dominated by fast carbohydrates, and not without alcohol. Over a long period, gradually reducing the body's resilience and resources, the following appear:

   Elevated blood pressure (arterial hypertension)

   Blood pressure should not exceed 120/80 mmHg, regardless of age. Blood pressure is linked to health issues, not age.

   Visceral fat deposition

   Increased waist size and belly overhang, associated with the deposition of visceral fat. This is most dangerous, especially if fat accumulates on internal organs. Hence the saying – a lean person is not always healthy, but an obese person is always sick.

Dyslipidemia

It is important to monitor changes in lipid levels, so a lipid profile analysis or lipidogram should be performed to determine triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and total cholesterol (TC).

 

Elevated glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level in the blood

Testing should be performed several times over a month to analyze if there is an elevated glucose level in the blood. If higher than 5.5 mmol/l, it indicates a progression towards insulin resistance. It's simpler to perform a glycated hemoglobin test, which measures how hemoglobin molecules have attached plasma glucose over the erythrocyte's lifespan (approximately 120 days), as the total value of glycated hemoglobin depends on the glucose concentration in the plasma during the erythrocyte's lifespan.

 

Insulin resistance

The most characteristic signs of insulin resistance are drowsiness after meals, especially after consuming fast carbohydrates, difficulty losing excess weight, a strong craving for sweets, frequent hunger, and increased appetite.

Metabolic syndrome is a disturbance of the energy balance, as excess energy is converted into fat. Too much sugar intake leads to fat deposition in internal organs. As a result, these areas have impaired circulation, and the immune system triggers the production of interleukins, which start to damage all cells they encounter, entering the bloodstream. This affects joints, blood vessel walls, the nervous system, liver, kidneys, pancreas, etc. This condition is a systemic chronic inflammation in the body, which is the main cause of accelerated aging, but in its acute form, it can manifest in any part of the body.

As a result, metabolic syndrome manifests as joint problems, cancer, dementia, type 2 diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, cardiovascular diseases, various autoimmune diseases, and many other commonly heard diseases. Therefore, it is no coincidence that metabolic syndrome is also referred to (of course, metaphorically) as a first call from the afterlife.

 

 

Nature did not intend for cooking and boiling

If we boil water and drink what settles at the bottom of the kettle, do we get minerals? Of course not, because they have transformed into a form insoluble in water. Drinking such water damages the kidneys. The same happens with any product when boiled or fried. The difference is that you don't see all that in bread, soup, porridge, and many other things, but you do in water.

Nature did not intend for boiling and frying; there are no such products as fried or boiled potatoes, pasta, white bread, croutons, etc. These are thermally processed starches that clog liver ducts. Metabolic processes are disrupted. Cells die in the liver. Scars and fibrosis develop in the tissues. Blood pressure rises. Then come problems with the lower hollow veins, varicose veins expansion, thrombophlebitis. Congestion in the arteries of the lower extremities, hemorrhoids.

Sorrel and rhubarb should not be boiled because the oxalic acid in them, when transformed into an inorganic form, forms oxalic acid crystals, harming the kidneys and clogging their channels.

 

 

What can harm the human body?

Neither honey, nor pollen, nor citrus fruits, nor strawberries can harm a person unless their body has accumulated dead and rotting harmful products. These are dispersed toxins and dead cells that have not been timely eliminated from various tissues, paranasal sinuses, lungs, bronchi, blood vessels, liver, and intestinal tract. Accumulating in the body and rotting in conditions of oxygen deficiency, dead cells turn into pus, damaging surrounding healthy tissues, which become extremely sensitive to any external factor: cold, heat, pollen, honey, citrus fruits. Any of these can trigger an allergic process.

 

 

Animal Proteins

Animal products contain high-molecular proteins, consisting of long spirals of amino acids. Consuming such products daily, as a result of digestion, some are converted into collagens and accumulate on the walls of capillaries. Consequently, capillaries narrow, and blood thickens. This increases the load on the heart. The entry of undigested proteins and inorganic minerals into the blood is a reason for elevated blood pressure. The immune system is overloaded, perceiving undigested amino acids as antigens that need to be destroyed. A huge number of diseases are associated with immune system overload.

 

 

Pathogenic Microflora

The suppression of pathogenic microflora and the proliferation in symbiosis is possible if there is an adequate supply of carbohydrates and fibers, and a small amount of animal proteins in the diet. The proliferation of pathogenic microflora in large quantities inevitably produces harmful waste products. Dysbiosis develops, which can lead to diarrhea, constipation, ulcerative colitis, hernias, appendicitis, liver, and pancreatic dysfunction, among others.

 

 

Bezoars from persimmons

Bezoars are dense and compact clumps of indigestible fibers in the stomach. The most indigestible fibers are found in persimmons, but also in smaller amounts in grapes and plums.

The mucilage in persimmons in the stomach binds with proteins consumed in the diet and deposits on the fibers of persimmons. This forms a compound that, when glued together, forms a ball. This ball gets stuck in the stomach and gradually increases in size. The weight of a bezoar can reach more than 2 kilograms, and surgical intervention may be required to remove it. If it remains in the stomach for a long time, various bacteria that cause unpleasant breath can migrate into the bezoar. Foul breath from the mouth, when there are no other reasons, is one of the symptoms of a bezoar.

Another symptom, as the bezoar increases in size (approaching 10cm), is a quick feeling of fullness when eating, accompanied by stomach pain, especially after meals. Burping and nausea are possible, but vomiting does not occur.

Persimmons should only be eaten in the morning, not in the evening. They should not be washed down with water or milk. Persimmons should only be eaten when fully ripe. The skin should not be eaten. This fruit should not be mixed with other foods, especially those rich in proteins. Persimmons are particularly not recommended for diabetics. Those with intestinal adhesions should avoid eating persimmons.

There is an increased risk of bezoar formation in those with gastrointestinal candidiasis. The most effective method of investigating bezoars is gastroscopy.

Bezoars can be removed not only by surgical intervention but also by dissolving them. Here, the otherwise very harmful drink Coca-Cola can be useful. The orthophosphoric acid it contains, along with carbon dioxide, effectively dissolves bezoars. Diluted apple cider vinegar can also be used for dissolution.

 

 

Toxin Accumulation in the Body

As long as we drink, breathe, and eat, even in the world's cleanest region, not to mention polluted ones, all of us without exception excrete waste products 24 hours a day. This is normal, and the body can handle it. Toxins are divided into water-soluble (80%) and fat-soluble (20%). The so-called fat-soluble toxins are dissolved with enzymes and bile produced by the liver. They are then eliminated through the intestines, while water-soluble toxins, passing through the kidneys, are excreted with urine. If the body operates in an optimal regime, it can handle this task, and there are no problems. If not – for example, if a person consumes an inadequate diet, symptoms start to appear.

For example, if we add something to water (coffee, tea, etc.), it is no longer water; it is some kind of solution in water. The kidneys cannot work with solutions; they need time and energy to separate the additives from the water. Therefore, to excrete anything from the body, water is needed. Lack of water is the main reason why unexcreted toxins accumulate in the kidneys. A person who does not drink water at all will definitely have accumulated toxins, only the question is how much.

Unexcreted toxins circulate in the blood, and the first to suffer are the heart and blood vessels. Blood pressure decreases (hypotensive syndrome). If this condition continues, the body activates a reserve elimination system – elimination through sweat via the skin, accompanied by unpleasant sweat odor and dermatological rashes. Toxins start to deposit in the skin derivatives: nails and hair. Nails begin to delaminate and break, and hair to fall out, and in this case, shampoo will not help.

Only light toxins can be excreted through the skin, but there are also so-called heavy toxins or large molecular compounds that cannot be excreted through the skin; they deposit in the bones. Bones are connective tissue matrix consisting of collagen, which is a protein. As is known, newborns do not have bones, they have cartilage structures - bone matrices, which gradually fill with calcium, phosphorus, salts, and become hard. As toxins continue to accumulate, the body has no choice but to place heavy toxins in the bones. Calcium and phosphorus are replaced with heavy metals, and symptoms of osteoporosis will not be long in coming, and additional calcium intake will not help. Further accumulation of toxins borders on oncology.

The presence of toxins is most felt by pregnant women up to the 12th week, when the fetus is in the embryonic stage and the woman's toxic load rapidly increases. Nausea during pregnancy is a sign of pregnancy toxemia. A sign of toxemia is also when a child dislikes toxic milk because the mother has toxemia. If a woman rapidly gains weight after childbirth, it means that the weight has not disappeared. No diets or medications will help; toxins must be expelled. A pregnancy that has proceeded with toxemia results in boys who later in life have a tendency towards morning coffee and beer.

One of the initial signs of toxin accumulation is a decrease in blood pressure – hypotension, because toxins in the blood plasma interfere with maintaining normal pressure. To improve performance, eliminate drowsiness, maintain tone, or normalize blood pressure, many people regularly drink coffee. Symptoms are removed for a couple of hours, but the problem remains. Crystals form in the kidneys, and over time, due to these changes, the opposite process begins – blood pressure rises. The ideal standard of 120/80+/- 10 becomes the second stage of hypertension. Lowering blood pressure with medications becomes ineffective because the kidneys should actually be dealt with, otherwise small blood vessels clog with salts, atherosclerosis occurs. Body detoxification is necessary!

 

 

Why does body temperature rise and when does it happen?

Temperature rises in infectious diseases and in chronic or acute hyperthyroidism thyrotoxicosis because toxins are produced in the body that paralyze oxidative phosphorylation, that is, ATP (energy molecule) synthesis in the presence of oxygen, which accumulates energy and then gradually releases it for the body's functioning needs. ATP does not form if tissues contain toxic compounds and there is an excessive amount of thyroxine (thyroid hormone). If ATP is not synthesized, energy is converted into heat, and the body's tissues' temperature rises.

 

 

Acidosis and Alkalosis

Acidosis (acidic blood reaction) complicates the delivery of oxygen to tissues, whereas, if there is an excessive amount of alkalis in the blood (alkalosis), especially if this increase occurs rapidly, there can also be a lack of oxygen, because oxygen, so to speak, will get stuck, leading to lipid components losing their configuration due to erythrocyte lysis.

 

 

Hypoxia

Hypoxia is a lack of oxygen in the body. We need oxygen for many life processes, for example, to operate muscles, the brain, etc. Unwillingness to move is one of the first signs because muscle activity consumes a lot of oxygen. Brain activity also consumes a lot of energy. Phrases often heard in everyday life - ''somehow tired'', ''head does not work, forgot''. People look for various excuses. But the reason is a lack of oxygen. Also, headaches, poor sleep, nightmares, depression are signs of hypoxia. Another sign is a craving for fast carbohydrates because there is a lack of energy.

Fat-free diets are actually a path to hypoxia. The inner lining of the pulmonary alveolus consists of surfactant, which is 99% fat and 1% protein. If there is a lack of fats, oxygen insufficiently enters the blood. Thus, hypoxia. If this continues during pregnancy, it poses a serious threat to the child, possibly leading to brain function disorders and all types of memory disorders.

The air we breathe, from the lungs, oxygen enters the blood. In turn, blood is the universal transport that delivers oxygen to the cells. The main and most important role in this process is played by erythrocytes in the blood, which contain hemoglobin, a protein that performs this function. If the diet lacks the raw materials to produce hemoglobin, the blood cannot fully perform its function (anemia). Of course, there can be other reasons – parasites, fungi, viruses, etc. The liquid part in the blood should be 85%, if this proportion is lower, then the blood will be thick. For example, if a person drinks little water. In this case, too, the delivery of oxygen to the cells will be difficult, because the smallest blood vessel diameter is only 3 microns. If erythrocytes are clumped together, they will not enter the small blood vessels. Another reason could be a lack of microelements such as sodium, potassium in erythrocytes. As a result, they can be charged differently from the outside, both negatively and positively. This means that opposite charges attract each other or erythrocytes stick together, forming conglomerates. Another reason for blood thickening could be a lack of enzymes. Undigested animal proteins entering the blood create pus, thicken the blood, and complicate the delivery of oxygen to the cells.

Once oxygen finally reaches the cell, it does not end there. It must pass through the cell envelope - the membrane, which consists of phospholipids, on whose quality depends the quality of the membrane. Another condition for hemoglobin's entry or non-entry into the cell is the adequate intake of lecithin and coenzyme with the diet. To assimilate oxygen, there must be enough ATP (AdenosineTriPhosphate).

Therefore, to ensure our cells are not starved of oxygen, the diet must include quality fats (not surrogate fats), fats are needed for the lungs, especially saturated fatty acids. Sufficient water intake is necessary to avoid thick blood. Enzymes, phospholipids, proteins, more precisely, amino acids are needed. Summarizing the above – a normal diet is the most effective means against hypoxia.

 

 

Improper Eating

 More than a thousand years ago, Avicenna said that if a person is sick:

  ☀️ First, they must abstain from food.

  ☀️ Second, they must undergo intestinal tract cleansing procedures.

  ☀️ Third, they must change their eating habits and flush the ''body's sewage systems'' (lymphatic, urinary systems, and gastrointestinal tract). And only then, if that has not helped, they can seek medical assistance.

The biggest mistake is to consume products that are ''killed'' chemically, using carcinogenic E-substances, preservatives containing formaldehyde, dyes, stabilizers, enzyme blockers, antibiotics, hormones, acids, etc. By extending product shelf lives, the food industry destructively affects the human body. All these additives damage immunity. For example, monosodium glutamate (E-621), added as a flavor enhancer in broth cubes, soy sauces, various spices. This E additive damages brain cells, can cause headaches and damage up to Alzheimer's disease, destroys the retina, can cause glaucoma.

What Happens in the Body if There is a Lack of Water?

Blood thickens, causing blood pressure to rise. With increased blood pressure, respiration accelerates, heart rate increases, hemoglobin level rises. Body cells receive less oxygen because it is delivered with water. As oxygen gives energy to cells to absorb nutrients, their amount decreases. The ability to eliminate waste products worsens because urine volume decreases. This, in turn, leads to acidification of the body environment, increasing bilirubin and sugar levels. An acidic environment is favorable for the development of unwanted bacteria, viruses, parasitic fungi. Once the acid-alkali balance is disrupted, fungi also go on the attack.

 

 

Myth About Mineral Leaching with Water

It is a myth that drinking a lot of water leaches valuable minerals from the body, wears out internal organs and bones. In fact, nothing is leached from the body unless substances that force it to do so enter. For example, sugar (ordinary), which intensifies calcium excretion, or animal proteins that increase the body's internal environment's acidity (nitric acid), for the neutralization of which calcium is spent.

 

 

Salt Raises Blood Pressure

Eating a larger amount of salt inevitably enters the blood and increases osmotic pressure. This rapidly changes the balance of all fluids in the body. The body cannot allow this and immediately tries to compensate by diluting the blood with water until the physiological concentration of 0.9% NaCl is reached. As the total blood volume in the blood vessels increases, as a result, blood pressure also rises. Therefore, hypertensive patients are advised to consume as little salt as possible. The kidneys excrete fluid at a constant rate.

It should also be noted that if salty is eaten with sweet in one meal, that is, alkali with acid, the balance is disrupted, leading to the blocking of digestive enzymes. For example, drinking a sweet drink after eating salty food leads to the formation of kidney stones.

 

 

Uric Acid

Uric acid is a byproduct of protein breakdown in the liver. Especially from meat, a large amount of denatured proteins enters the blood. Uric acid concentration in the blood rises rapidly, and the blood thickens. Tissue cells suffer from a lack of oxygen, and metabolic processes are disrupted. Therefore, meat eaters often experience shortness of breath. Uric acid salt crystals do not filter out and remain in the kidneys because they crystallize earlier and therefore do not pass through membranes, further with blood they can spread throughout the body. Uric acid crystals settle in joints and muscles, leading to such popular diseases as rheumatism, gout, arthritis.

 

 

Mucus

The mucous glands secrete a secretion, which is a covering, moisturizing liquid in various places, for example, pleura, pericardium, abdominal cavity. If a person inhales, for example, dusty air, the mucous glands intensively produce secretion to wash away the dust.

 

 

Diseases as Accelerated Detoxification

The accelerated process of the body's self-cleaning is called diseases, which we know as, for example, pharyngitis, laryngitis, runny nose, cough, and others, when mucus accumulates and makes breathing difficult. Allergies are also a manifestation of toxin elimination from the body, which can occur in various ways: through the skin, bronchi, lungs, and nasopharynx. The body tries to get rid of toxins in all possible ways. Therefore, it would be more logical to help the body detoxify, rather than stopping it with medications.

 

 

Vitamin C Deficiency

There is no such thing as periodontitis only in the mouth. If your gums bleed when you brush your teeth, it means that periodontitis is throughout the body. It is a vitamin C deficiency, which manifests as comprehensive damage to single-cell capillaries. Blood vessels are injured, so erythrocytes and platelets enter the intercellular fluid. If the process progresses, life-threatening phenomena may follow: stroke, heart attack.

 

 

Sweets

Only fatty and sweet provide energy (sugar substitutes do not). Therefore, if you limit fats, you will crave sweets because the body needs energy. Reducing cholesterol intake in the diet rapidly reduces the production of the hormone insulin in the pancreas because cholesterol is a raw material for hormones. Adequate iodine is also important in the insulin production process. Cholesterol is not found in plant fats. It is only in animal fats. If you eat a lot of sugar (especially drinking sweetened soft drinks and juices) and do not consume cholesterol, your body simply has nothing from which to synthesize insulin. The sugar level is high, but there is no insulin (type 2 diabetes).

 

 

Herbicide Roundup

The herbicide Roundup, widely used in conventional agriculture, promotes the development of cancer in various ways. First, it increases the proportion of pathogenic intestinal microflora. This, in turn, is associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer forms. The proliferation of pathogenic bacteria can promote the proliferation of proteins such as zonulin, which can cause increased intestinal permeability syndrome, resulting in undigested proteins entering the bloodstream and overloading the immune system.

Roundup creates a destructive chain of processes in nature and the human body.

 

 

Casein

Among the main causes of inflammatory processes - fast carbohydrates and lectins - is also casein, which is difficult to digest in the human body, but is an excellent construction glue that can be used in carpentry. Casein accounts for 87% of the total protein content in cow's milk. For example, cottage cheese and cheeses are concentrated casein. Carcinogens combined with casein form a very dangerous combination.

 

 

Fungi

Fungi in a healthy human body are like ''obligate parasites''. They live in symbiosis with their host, human, benefiting both sides, but fungi go on the attack as soon as the acid-alkali balance in the body is disrupted, which can be caused by stress, surgeries, wounds, drugs, smoking, unhealthy diet. If the body is in an acidic environment, ''obligate parasites'' transform from their beneficial primordial form into a pathogenic form, attacking their host. Rapid proliferation of pathogenic fungi is also observed after antibiotic use. Fungi feed on antibiotics (streptomycin, tetracycline, penicillin) and on dead microorganisms. There are external fungal diseases (on the skin, mucous membranes) and internal (in the blood, intestinal tract), which spread throughout the body. The body has a law - fungi are always expelled through the skin. Therefore, everything that appears on the skin, peels, flakes, cracks, itches, in any part of the body: on the hands, feet, between the fingers, underarms - all this is fungi. We treat this as psoriasis, dermatitis. Diathesis along with immunity disorders is a fungal infection.

 

 

What Products Do Fungi Like?

Yeast-baked bread, dairy products with sugar, ice cream, buns, meat. Do not use rotten apples and bananas with brown spots in the diet. Many fungi not only spread in tissues but are also poisonous through their secreted toxins. Currently, doctors can distinguish about 400 types of toxins. For example, aflatoxin, produced by mold fungi, can cause liver cancer! Therefore, never eat moldy products!

 

 

Candidiasis

If a little more than 100 years ago candidiasis affected about 10% of the population, today this number is approaching 90%, and the reason for this is the change in diet.

The main causes of candidiasis are C. tropicalis, C. albicans, C. glabrata, C. parapsilosis, C. krusei. They are yeast-like fungi. The causes can also be mold fungi, such as aspergillus, botrytis, etc. It is normal for candida to inhabit the body. The main colonies reside in the intestinal tract. More than 100 candida are known, and about 50 rarer ones should be added.

With weakened immunity, candidiasis can appear in any part of the body. For example, white coating on the tongue in the mornings undoubtedly indicates candidiasis. It affects both women and men.

A part of candida are symbionts, but another part are parasites, the main thing is that they are in balance. The balance is maintained by immunity and symbiotic bacteria unless they are destroyed by antibiotics. Unfortunately, with the toxic preparations that doctors prescribe, candida cannot be completely eradicated. For example, the appearance of thrush indicates systemic candidiasis in the body.

Just as with all chronic inflammations, skin diseases such as psoriasis, dermatitis, neurodermatitis often end with tumors. Candidiasis spreading along the mucous membrane of internal organs and growing into it promotes the development of oral cavity, mammary glands, female genital organs, as well as urinary bladder (both in men and women) oncological diseases.

The most common symptoms of candidiasis:

  🛡️ itching in intimate areas,

  🛡️ regular craving for sweets,

  🛡️ white or gray coating on the tongue,

  🛡️ various rashes on the skin (pimples, dermatitis, acne, etc.),

  🛡️ regularly stuffy nose,

  🛡️ urinary and genital infections, cystitis,

  🛡️ bloating, dysbiosis,

  🛡️ regular fatigue,

  🛡️ ammonia-like breath from the mouth,

  🛡️ pain in joints.

Prevention – radically reduce the consumption of sweets, switch to adequate nutrition, physical activities, and clothing from natural materials. Candidiasis does not like garlic, cloves, propolis, thyme, and horseradish.

 

The Body's Last Chance to Get Rid of Toxins is Through the Skin

Everything that appears on the skin, allergies, psoriasis, neurodermatitis – means that the body has been affected by fungal infections. Toxins that cannot be completely eliminated through the excretory systems, the last chance for the body to get rid of them is through the skin. This is especially manifested in places where there are large lymph nodes: elbow joints, knee joints, cheeks. Therefore, for example, if there is allergodermatosis, it cannot be cured with antibiotics, antidepressants, or hormonal preparations.
