Winter is almost here and
it is time to consider the changes needed in our eating.
Winter according to the
Chinese FIVE elements theories, is related to water. This relates to the kidney
and bladder. Water is the essential media of your body through which all things
pass. It is part of the lymphatic flow, helps eliminate waste, fight of
infection, and facilitates the flow of saliva, perspiration, tears and sexual
fluids. The kidneys filter the blood
and keep the blood and keep the body clean and in balance. They filter several
thousand of quarts of blood daily. Extracting and keeping the balance of
minerals, salts, acids, and wastes. The health of the kidney can be seen in the
glow of the skin hair and eyes. The vitality of all body fluids
is maintained by the kidney and bladder. The groins and the bladder
are like magistrates of a region or district; they store the overflow and the
fluid secretions, which serve to regulate vaporisation. NEI CHING HERBS AND FOODS that are
recommended for the kidneys and bladder COUCH RHIZOME An excellent demulcent
soothes the tissues no known contra-indications PA A mild diuretic and demulcent -
not recommended during Pregnancy or when inflammation of the Kidneys is present. CELERY SEED Helps promote urine flow - not
recommended during Pregnancy MARS Soothes irritated tissues - no
known contra-indications DANDELION LEAF & ROOT Slight diuretic effect - not
recommended in excessive amounts JUNIPER BERRY Thought to eliminate mucous in
the kidneys - NOT RECOMMENDED IF YOU HAVE A KIDNEY INFECTION BUCHU A highly valued kidney and
bladder herb used in almost all urinary tonics - not recommended for continual
use BLACKCURRANT Highly nutritive used to
slightly stimulate the kidneys - excessive amounts may irritate the intestines At this time of the year it is
also wise to increase your nutrition whether it be by eating good organic food
or by taking supplements. As the winter flu approaches it is also recommended to
increase your intake of herbs and foods, which support and strengthen the immune
system. Garlic is one of those. Onion is another. Ginger also. Of course the hot lemon and honey is highly recommended. Apple Cider Vinegar 20ml daily we take it by holding the
breath and throwing it straight back without breathing followed by Orange
Juice. If you have a good organic brand the taste is much smoother.
If it makes you gag it has found bug patches on the back of the throat and
sinuses, this will pass after a few days. A.C.V neutralizes the internal
Ph of the body. Remember bugs like to live in an acid environment which is
low in oxygen. Normal human internal Ph is not the best environment for
bugs. Notice
