Diagnose Yourself: An Alternative Method
Do you know that you can diagnose yourself or other people just by looking at your or their face? This interesting method came from the East and has been used there for many generations. So, look at the mirror and start a checkup.

EYES

Look at the whites of your eyes. Do you notice red vessels? You may not sleep enough or spend too much time in front of a computer. Also, it is a clear signal that your nerve system is exhausted and you need rest. If you noticed that the whites of your eyes became yellow, it might be a sign that you have hepatitis.

If your eyes are unnaturally shiny, you could be in love or…have a problem with your thyroid gland.

Dark circles can point to fatigue, insomnia, low blood pressure, cardio-vascular disorders or lack of vitamins. If you have brown dark circles and puffiness and the whites of your eyes are yellowish, check your liver. It needs some help!

How about your upper lids? If they are puffy, your kidneys do not work properly. If your lower lids are puffy, you might have a pancreas or spleen disorder.

LIPS

Of course, we like full red lips. But did you know that sometimes it means that these are the signs of sexual disorders? That is why you should not get upset if you have average lips; just use a lip liner and a red lipstick.

If your mouth corners are cracked, you need to increase the amount of cheese, fish, cereal and nuts in your daily ration. You have a deficiency of vitamin B.

If women have pale and very thin lips, it is probably a lack of estrogen.

TEETH

If you do not smoke, but your teeth are yellowish, check your gall bladder. If your teeth are brownish – your immune system is going to collapse! Do you think that extremely white teeth (naturally very white) are great? It could be a sign of mineral misbalance.

TONGUE

Now check your tongue. If it is pink and clean, you are lucky. Your digestive system works fine.

If your tongue is yellowish, it points to a problem with your gall bladder or hemorrhoids.

If you have a dry cracked tongue, you have diabetes. If your tongue has a white thin coating (plaque) on the front and middle parts of it, you might have gastritis, a stomach ulcer or a duodenal ulcer. If there is a white plaque on the root of your tongue, your digestive system does not work properly. If there is a whitish plaque on the roof of the mouth, it could be a sign of thrush - Candida infection (you can get it after antibiotic treatment, for example) or stomatitis. If the tongue looks like a strawberry, red with white spots, it is a clear sign of scarlet fever.

SKIN

If your skin is very pale, it could be a sign of anemia, low blood pressure, a weak immune system or problems with blood circulation. If the skin turned yellowish, there is a problem with the gall bladder. Reddish tone points to high blood pressure or cardio-vascular disorders. Do you have red capillaries on your face? You and your skin are very sensitive. Also, exclude spices, red wine and smoked meat. These foods enlarge blood capillaries. 

PIMPLES

If women get pimples on their chin or around their lips once a month before their period, it is normal. But if there are pimples under the chin, there is a problem with the digestive system. Pimples on your temples give you a signal to check your liver. Pimples on the forehead mean that there are gall bladder or stomach disorders. If your skin is smooth and clean, but sometimes you get tiny red pimples, you have an allergic reaction to one of the foods you eat. If your skin is cool and mist, it is likely that you have a weak liver and a weak nerve system.

HAIR

Let’s take a look at your hair. If you have excessive hair loss, check your thyroid gland. Also, make sure that you get enough vitamins and minerals. If your hair is fragile, check your bowels. If your hair grows very slowly, your nervous system is very weak. If you started getting gray hair fast, check your heart and pancreas. Another reason for that could be a hormonal dysfunction. The reasons for getting grey hair at a young age are high acidity, getting a lot of salt with foods, diabetes, stress, constant fatigue, lack of enzymes, disorder of sex functions and poor blood circulation in your heart. If your hair is very brittle, you have not been getting optimal nutrition for a long time. If a woman gets bald spots on her temples, it could be early climax, dysmenorrheal and hormonal dysfunction. If you had light hair and it started getting dark fast, check your liver and gall bladder. The cause of baldness could be rheumatism or gout. If you got round bald spots, you have serious anemia. If you have dandruff, limit the amount of salt, sugar, coffee and dairy in your diet.

Of course, this article is not intended to substitute your doctor’s diagnosis, but hopefully you will not delay a visit to a doctor if you find one of the signs above. Your health is very important!

A Parent's Holistic Guide To Common Childhood Diseases

Diagnosing And Treating Disease

The treatment, curing of any disease always begins with diagnosis. Diagnosis begins with full, not partial biological knowledge.

Diagnosis identifies symptoms.
Symptoms identify function.
Function identifies structure.
Structure defines treatment (food, herbs, drugs, exercise, sex, etc)
Every structure is nutrient, food, herb, drug, exercise, sex, etc. specific.

All structures and their associated functions work together and many times share similar symptoms, diseases.

Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, Plantar Fasciitis and the common cold are five different diseases that share not only similar symptoms: pain, inflammation and or numbness in the arms and legs, bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, etc. but also blood.

All disease is defined by its symptoms.
Symptoms identify function (function produces symptoms)
Function identifies structure (structure produce function)
Food, nutrients, blood identifies, produces structure.

The body digests, transforms food, nutrients into blood into structure into function, into health or disease. There are only two kinds of nutrients, foods: building and cleansing. Building foods, nutrients build and fuel all structure and function. Cleansing foods, nutrients reduce, cleanse, cool and moisten. The balance of life, health is generally more building (98.6) than cleansing.

Food> digestion> absorption> blood> structure> function> health or disease

Blood (nutrients and non-nutrients) builds, fuels, moistens, cleanses, cools and warms all structure and function. A certain amount of blood, nutrients (oxygen, protein, fat, water, etc.) is required to sustain all structure, function.

Any amount less, in the extreme, tends to cause: dryness and inflammation (blood is moistening), coldness (blood is warming), pain, weakness, numbness and or shaking (blood builds and fuels).

The extremities are always the first to suffer blood deficiency, as they are not vital organs. The common cold, caught during winter is the perfect example as it produces not only respiratory symptoms but also pain, numbness, inflammation, coldness and or shaking in the extremities.

An external attack of cold temperatures (winter, air conditioning) tends to cause a reversal, retreat of blood flow from extremities, hands and feet to the abdomen and chest, to protect and nourish vital organs, at the same it leaves the extremities with less blood, energy, fuel, warmth, etc. causing the aforementioned symptoms in addition to coughing, mucous, stiff shoulders, etc.

Pain, inflammation, numbness, etc. in the extremities are also common to Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia and Plantar Fasciitis. Blood deficiency and or blood stagnation can cause these symptoms, diseases Anemic diets (under built, low protein, low fat, high carbohydrate) in the extreme tends to reduce the supply, production of blood, and in the extreme, tends to produce pain, inflammation, coldness, weakness, numbness, shaking, etc.

Many women tend to eat anemic diets (high carbohydrate, low protein and low fat). They also menstruate (monthly blood loss) from menarche to menopause (40+ years). This combination increases the likelihood of blood deficiency (fatigue, pain, inflammation, numbness, heat and or coldness). It also tends to weaken digestion (abdominal bloating, pain, gas and burping), elimination (loose stools, diarrhea and constipation), reproduction (infertility, miscarriage, short term pregnancy, etc.), emotions (depression, fear and hysteria), memory and immunity. Red meat is the number one blood builder.

Blood stagnation in the liver can also be a cause. All blood flows in and out the liver. The liver stores, cleanses and releases the blood. Its cleansing function removes excess protein and fat. Diets, high in protein and fat (thick, sticky nutrients) in excess, tend to the clog the liver reducing its cleansing and distributing function. More protein and fat, cholesterol collects into the bloodstream, arteries, veins, heart and brain. More blood flows into the liver than out. This not only causes the liver to swell but also reduces blood supply circulation to the extremities, hands and feet, ligaments, tendons, bones, etc, causing pain, dryness, inflammation, coldness, etc. This scenario is common among men.

Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, Plantar Fasciitis and the common cold are five different "diseases" that not only share similar symptoms and locations but also causes (blood deficiency, blood stagnation, poor diet. etc.). It is the "cause" which you must cure, remove, when curing disease; otherwise, the disease, symptoms continue to grow, in one form or another.

Diagnosis identifies symptoms, diseases.
Symptoms, diseases identify structure and function.
Structure and function identify diet, nutrition, food, herbs, exercise, climate, etc.

Many autoimmune illnesses (Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, AIDS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chronic fatigue Syndrome, Crohn's Disease, etc.) have similar symptoms: abdominal bloating, gas, loose stools, constipation, fatigue, mucous, phlegm, fatigue and pain in addition to a weak immune system.

Most autoimmune system disorders are caused by poor diet (low protein, low fat and high carbohydrate, in the extreme). Poor diet decreases weakens digestion, elimination, immunity, reproduction, locomotion, memory, etc.

Women more than men tend to suffer autoimmune disorders due to inappropriate diet: low protein, low fat and high carbohydrate (raw, cold) and menstruation (blood loss). Both create blood, protein and fat deficiency symptoms, diseases.

Every diagnosis eventually comes down to building (overbuilt) and cleansing (under built) as everything builds up and breaks down. The correct amount of building and cleansing produces and maintains the correct amount of structure and function where the body mind can thrive. Any amounts, greater of less, in the extreme, tend to weaken, sicken and pain the body mind via too much (overbuilt) or too little (under built) blood structure and function.

Every thing builds up and breaks down.

The blood, bones, skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments, hair, skin, liver, spleen, heart, lungs, brain, sex organs, hormones, blood, mucous, water, etc. build up and break down. Disease occurs when any of these parts, structures build up or break down too much (overbuilt) or too little (under built, over cleansed).

Every remedy (herb, food, supplement, exercise, drug, emotion, etc.) has an overall building (includes heating, drying, energizing) or cleansing (includes cooling, moistening, slowing) nature.

Every gender has an overall building (male) or cleansing (female) nature.

Every season has an overall building (spring, summer) or cleansing (fall, winter) nature.

Building (hot, yang) and cleansing (cold, yin) are a simple yet effective diagnosis.
