Thank you for your email. Medical Background: Summary of Causes and Mechanisms of Linear Growth Retardation by J.C. Waterlow It was accepted that impairment of linear growth is multifactorial. The important causal factors are threefold: nutrition, infection and the mother-infant interaction, which depends in part on the socio-economic/educational level of the family. As far as concerns nutrition, the Panel agreed that although inadequate quantity of food cannot be excluded altogether, most stunted children are of normal weight for length or height. The emphasis was therefore on the quality of their diet. Several studies have suggested an effect of animal food on linear growth; the limiting factor could be amino acids, for example the sulphur-containing amino acids; micronutrients such as zinc; total fat, or specific components of fat. There is also the possibility of toxic factors in the nutrient supply. Infections contribute through injury to the gastro-intestinal mucosa, leading to malabsorption, particularly of micronutrients, and to increased permeability to antigens and bacteria. The systemic effects of infections, mediated by cytokines, result in extra losses of nutrients. Maternal nutrition and stores at birth are also important for the later development of the infant. The interaction between the mother and child is a very special one; even within the same family one child could have the right interaction and another not. The epidemiological evidence suggests that falling off in linear growth usually begins within 4-6 months of birth. It is reasonable to suppose that up to this time the development of stunting is prevented by breast-feeding, not only through the nutrients, particularly micronutrients, that it supplies, but also the protective immunoglobulins and possibly growth factors. However, the work of Whitehead's group in Cambridge (UK) has shown that even in exclusively breast-fed children in a healthy environment linear growth begins to fall below the NCHS reference at about 4 months (Whitehead & Paul, 1985). It may be argued that this does indeed represent a temporary failure to achieve the full genetic potential for growth, since later these children catch up. It is therefore necessary to be cautious about stating that exclusive breast-feeding protects against stunting. In any case, exclusive breast-feeding up to 6 months is quite unusual, even in Third World populations. A further factor is appetite, which in weaning diets may be constrained by the bulk of the food or by too infrequent feeding. The high carbohydrate content of the diet perhaps has a satiating effect. Micronutrients may stimulate appetite, and infections have an important effect in reducing it. Here also the interaction with the mother plays a key role. The above is a brief summary of the general conditions that underlie the development of stunting. The Panel then went on to consider mechanisms. At about the age when stunting begins the second growth spurt described by Karlberg (see above) and attributed to growth hormone (GH) should be setting in. Before that, growth hormone is present in very high amounts, but the receptors seem to be inactive or in some species even absent (Lodeweyckx). The bone growth plate is formed after birth (Nilsson) as a result of the formation of the bone epiphysis, and it is known from rat experiments that GH can act on the formation of the epiphysis if the GH receptor is present. Perhaps the retardation of growth is due to the fact that the GH receptor is not expressed. This possibility might be studied, at least in muscle and fat tissue, by biopsies taken in the course of elective surgery, for example for repair of hernias. To relate the extent of expression of GH receptors to growth it is also necessary to have an instantaneous measure of growth velocity. It was suggested that it might be possible to measure the thickness of the growth plate by ultrasound. (NB: the question of biochemical markers which might provide a measure of growth velocity is discussed in Robins' paper).

New York: Raven Press. Pranic Healing: Provided that there is no genetic cause for the stunted growth, the following protocol. 1. Do the Meditation on Twin hearts properly before start of treatment. 2. Invoke and scan before, during and after treatment. Touch your heart with the pads of the fingers of your passive hand. Smile. Project loving kindness to the patient for several minutes. 3. General sweeping several times using LWG. 4. Localized thorough sweeping on both arms and legs with emphasis on their minor chakras, the basic chakra, navel chakra, front and back spleen chakra and the front and back solar pelxus chakra. 5. Energize the the basic chakra, navel chakra, and the front and back solar pelxus chakra and the minor chakras of the arms and legs with LWR. Energize spleen chakra with W. This has to be done with caution. 6. Localized thorough sweeping on the front and back heart chakra with EV. Energize the heart through through the back heart with EV. 7. Localized thorough sweeping on the entire head, the different sections of the brain, the crown chakra, forehead chakra, ajna chakra, back head minor chakra, temple minor chakras and throat chakra with EV. Energize the chakras with EV. If throat is overactivated, inhibit with LWB. 8. Localized thorough sweeping and energizing on the front and back solar pelxus chakra with EV. If solar plexus is overactivated, inhibit it with LB. 9. Localized thorough sweeping on the kidneys and the meng mein chakra. 10. Localized thorough sweeping on the entire spine alternately with LWG and ordinary LWV. 11. Localized thorough sweeping on the sex chakra. Energize the sex chakra with LWR. 12. Ask the patient to do Superbrain Yoga 14 to 21 cycles, properly. 13. Stabilize and release projected pranic energy. 14. Apply treatment 3 times per week for as long as needed. For patient: 15. Slow deep abdominal Pranic Breathing breathing for 12 cycles per session, at least 2 sessions per day. 16. Superbrian Yoga 14 to 21 cycles in the morning and 14 to 21 cycles in the late afternoon or evening. 17. Engage in physical sports activities and play to have fun with family and friends 18. Eat nutritionally balanced healthy food in sufficient amounts. 19. Ask your medical doctor for recommendation for vitamins and minerals food supplements, specific for your needs, to enhance growth and proper health maintenance.
