Rickets:7months old infant

[Guest guest]

Dear Mark,

 

Namaste.

 

Thank you for your email.

 

Medical Background:

 

Rickets is a disorder caused by insufficiency or

inefficient action of activated vitamin D in the body

during childhood. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin

that may be absorbed from the intestines or may be

produced by the skin when the skin is exposed to

ultraviolet light (particularly sunlight). It is

converted to its active form by the body in 2 steps,

occurring first in the liver and completed in the

kidneys. In its active form, vitamin D acts as a

hormone to regulate calcium absorption from the

intestine and to regulate levels of calcium and

phosphate in the bones. Active vitamin D is assisted

by the actions of other body hormones.

 

Because vitamin D is fat soluble, conditions that

reduce digestion or absorption of fats will decrease

the ability of vitamin D to be absorbed from the

intestines. Sunlight is important to skin production

of vitamin D, and environmental conditions where

sunlight exposure is limited may reduce this source of

vitamin D. Lack of vitamin D production by the skin

may occur with indoor confinement or working indoors

during the daylight hours, or it may occur in climates

with little exposure to sunlight.

 

When the body is deficient in vitamin D, it is unable

to properly regulate calcium and phosphate levels. If

the blood levels of these minerals becomes low, the

other body hormones may stimulate release of calcium

and phosphate from the bones to the bloodstream.

 

Rickets is a bone disease of children. It causes

progressive softening and weakening of the bone

structure. There is a loss of calcium and phosphate

from the bone, which eventually causes destruction of

the supportive matrix. The parathyroid gland may

increase functioning to compensate for decreased

levels of calcium in the bloodstream, resulting in

even more loss of calcium and phosphorous as it is

reabsorbed from the bones. In severe cases, cysts may

develop in the bones.

 

Rickets is fairly rare. It is most likely to occur

during periods of rapid growth where the body demands

high levels of calcium and phosphate. It is usually

seen in young children 6 to 24 months old and is

uncommon in newborns.

 

Nutritional causes of rickets occur with a lack of

vitamin D in the diet or with malabsorption disorders

characterized by poor fat absorption , including

steatorrhea, sprue , and short bowel syndrome . A

dietary lack of vitamin D may occasionally occur in

people on a vegetarian diet who do not drink milk

products or in people who are lactose intolerant

(those who have trouble digesting milk products). A

dietary lack of calcium and phosphorous may also play

a part in nutritional causes of rickets. Rickets from

a dietary lack of these minerals is rare because

calcium and phosphorous are present in milk and green

vegetables. A dietary lack of calcium causes

osteoporosis (an adult disorder causing brittle bones)

more often than it causes rickets.

 

Hereditary rickets is a vitamin D-resistant form of

rickets caused when the kidney is unable to retain

phosphate. It is an inherited, sex-linked disorder.

 

Rickets may also be caused by kidney disorders

involving renal tubular acidosis . The acidic

condition of the body causes the calcium in the bones

to dissolve, leaving soft, weak bones.

 

Occasionally, rickets may be caused in children with

disorders of the liver or biliary (liver secretion)

system, when fats and vitamin D are inadequately

absorbed or when the vitamin D is not converted to its

active form.

 

Pranic Healing:

 

1. Invoke and scan before, during and after

treatment.

 

2. Touch your heart with your non-healing hand and

smile. Empregnate the projected energy with lving

kindness. Continue doing this all thruout the

treatment.

 

*If you are an experienced advanced pranic healer, use

LWG and ordinary LWV. If you are not, simply use W.

 

**Sweeping projects small amounts of pranic energy

which is sufficient for a young infant with this

ailment.

 

3. General sweeping.

 

4. Localized sweeping on the front and back heart

chakras.

 

5. Localized sweeping on the front and back solar

plexus and liver.

 

6. Localized sweeping on the front and back spleen.

 

7. Localized sweeping on the lower abdomenal area,

intestines, the navel, basic chakras and sole minor

chakras.

 

8. Localized sweeping on the entire head area, ajna

and throat chakras, and throat minor chakra.

 

9. Localized sweeping on the bladder, sex and meng

mein chakras and both kidneys.

 

10. Distributive sweeping.

 

11. Stabilze and release projected energy.

 

12. Repeat treatment 2-3 times per week.

 

Recommend:

 

1. Regular exposure to sunlight for 15-30 minutes

per session during anytime from sunrise up to no later

than 10 a.m.

 

2. Monitor intake of vitamin D, calcium and

phosporous from milk and other dietary supplements.
