Guest guest Posted September 17, 2000 Report Share Posted September 17, 2000 Dear Jenny, Greetings... MEDICAL INFORMATION: FATS Fats, also called lipids, are energy-rich substances that serve as a major source of fuel for the body's metabolic processes. Fats are obtained from food or formed in the body, mostly in the liver, and can be stored in fat cells for future use. Fat cells also insulate the body from cold and help protect it from injury. Fats are essential components of cell membranes, of the myelin sheaths that surround nerve cells, and of bile. The two major fats in the blood are cholesterol and triglyceride. The fats attach themselves to certain proteins so they can travel throughout the bloodstream; the combined fats and proteins are called lipoproteins. There are different types of lipoproteins. Each type serves a different purpose and is broken down and excreted in different ways. Cholesterol is a type of lipoprotein. There are LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) which increases the risk of heart disease; and HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) which is actually beneficial to the body. Levels of LDL cholesterol increase with age. Levels are normally higher in men than in women, but they start to rise in women after menopause. Other factors contributing to high levels of certain lipids include: 1. family history of hyperlipidemia 2. obesity 3. a high-fat diet 4. lack of exercise 5. moderate to high alcohol consumption 6. cigarette smoking 7. poorly controlled diabetes 8. underactive thyroid gland Most elevations in fat levels are temporary and not severe, mainly the result of eating fat. They usually cause no symptoms. Excess fats are usually deposited in the subcutaneous layer of the skin causing cellulites. If fat levels are particularly and regularly high, fat deposits form growths called xanthomas in tendons and in the skin. Skin Layers: 1. Epidermis - the top layer. Protects the body from harmful substances; against injury, dehydration, infection, and sunlight. 2. Dermis - below the epidermis. This contains pain and touch receptors, skin glands, blood vessels that provide nutrition to the skin. 3. Subcutaneous Layer, the Layer of Fat Cells - below the dermis. This helps insulate the body from heat and cold. Usually, in the case of cellulite, the subcutaneous fat cells become lumpy especially in the thighs, hips, and buttocks. These fat cells are formed into adipocytes. PRANIC HEALING TREATMENT: 1. General Sweeping 2. Cleanse the internal organs technique. Emphasis should be on the liver. 3. Cleanse the blood technique. 4. Sweep ajna and throat with LWG & LWV. Energize with LWG, LWB, & LWV. 5. Sweep affected part with LWG, LWB, & LWO. Energize with LWG, LWB, & LWO. GO INSIDE THE AFFECTED PART AND SWEEP & ENERGIZE THE SUBCUTANEOUS LAYER. 6. AVOID HIGH-FAT DIET. 7. REGULAR PHYSICAL EXERCISE Love and light, masterfe ----------- At 06:38 PM 9/8/00 -0700, you wrote: >Dear Master Fe, >Have you got a pranic treatment for cellulite? >Love, and Light. > > > >===== >Jenny Miller ------------------- " Pranic Healing is not intended to replace orthodox medicine, but rather to complement it.
