When I first took digestive enzymes for a weak spleen, they made me

constipated, and gassy. My acupuncturist said that's generally the

opposite effect. Lasted about a week or ten days, then I was fine. I

guess some of us just react a little differently than the norm.

Hello Liz

 

Please do the following before doing acupuncture

 

have Peat bath for one week or more (detox your system you will enjoy this) and

take quick slim herbs until you lose 15 lb ( purchase from Dr Nigma west

Vancouver clinic 604- 925-3037)

 

you need to stay away from dairy products except yogurt, goat milk, don't eat

foods containing yeast and other yeast contain foods, have one fruit a day ,stay

away from sugar,citric acid drinks,citrus fruits except lemon and citrus fruit

drinks

 

it seems your immune system is down due to cold attack your middle jiao(small

intestine, stomach and gallbladder) probably you have intestinal permeability

too .

 

during the first 3 weeks have 3 tx/week with your acupuncturist to stimulate

your digestive system .

 

I'm sure you will get excellent results, i would love to discus more about

Chinese approach but since you're not in front of me , logically this is my

answer

 

wishing you a good health

Thank you for the briefing. Sorry we can't meet for treatment. :)

 

I don't know what a Peat bath is. I like baths.

 

I have avoided milk products because they bother my gut and for some

reason I use powdered goats milk and feel well on it. You are very close

to home here!

 

I do have to reduce my fruit eating on some days.

 

Your suggestion for treatment sounds very promising! Good to hear!

Thank you again.

I am interested in trying the peat product listed on the link you sent me.

But there is now way to purchase it online. How do I get to try this product?

 

I bought a bottle of kidney bean extract but never set myself down to

try it. I had been getting my memory stronger by taking certain supplements

after the soaps made me awful sick and then I had to figure a way to get

my magnesium to work for me again. I am doing fine in these two areas

now and would like to try the peat.

 

I can start the kidney bean supplement but I am not sure if it by-passes carbs

will reduce my nutrient absorption in some way?

 

Thanks,

Dear Liz,

 

Here is some more information on Peat and Quick Slim:

 

 

The following is information on the slim Quick: made up of white kidney bean

extract:

 

White Kidney Bean Extract OHI Product Name: White Kidney Bean Extract Plant

Origin: Phaseolus vulgaris L Plant Part Used: Bean Appearance: Fine light yellow

powder Solubility: Soluble in water slight soluble in alcohol Plant Picture:

What is Phaseolamin: Phaseolamin is an amazing, non-stimulant, all-natural

nutritional ingredient that is derived from the white kidney bean. It is the

first nutritional ingredient that has been clinically & scientifically proven to

neutralize starch, found in in your favorite foods such as potatoes, breads,

pasta. rice, corn and crackers. Phaseolamin is a safe yet powerful nutritional

ingredient, clinically studied to reduce the absorption of starch calories.

Phaseolamin allows you to enjoy those foods that you love without all the

calories. What does Phaseolamin work? During the digestive process, your body

converts carbohydrates, found in starchy foods such as potatoes and pasta, into

sugar. Your body does this by breaking-down the carbohydrate

molecule with alpha amylase, an enzyme that is produced in the pancreas. These

sugar calories are either burned off, through exercise, or stored as fat cells

for future use. Unfortunately, inactivity means that these stored fat cells

accumulate. The result is weight gain. Phaseolamin , an exclusive, all-natural

nutritional ingredient extracted from white kidney beans, " neutralizes " the

digestive enzyme alpha amylase before it can convert starch into glucose and

then fat. Essentially, it allows the carbohydrates to pass through the system

possibly with less caloric intake. When should I take it? Recent research has

shown the optimum time to take Phaseolamin is just before a starch-rich meal

along with 8 oz of water. However, the studies also showed that Phaseolamin

could still provide some of its starch " neutralizing " benefits when taken

during, or just after, a starch-rich meal. One such study demonstrated that

Phaseolamin could remain effective when a capsule is opened and

sprinkled onto food. Accept no substitutes Phaseolamin is the first natural

ingredient that meets these high standards of excellence through clinical

research. Phaseolamin has demonstrated clinical efficacy through several recent

U.S. university-based human studies. Phaseolamin has demonstrated safety through

LD50 studies, the gold standard test for acute and chronic toxicity. The white

kidney beans used to make Phaseolamin are non-GMO (genetically modified) while

the extraction process uses purified water - no solvents!! Virtually all

impurities are removed during extraction process. Clinical study November 20 -

In vivo effectiveness of a starch absorption blocker in a double-blind

placebo-controlled study with normal college-age subjects. Joe A. Vinson, PhD

and Donna M. Shuta, BS Department of Chemistry University of Scranton Scranton,

PA 18510 Inhibition of carbohydrate metabolism or absorption is one mechanism to

reduce hyperglycemia in normal and especially in diabetic

subjects. Another possible benefit is the decrease in calorie intake after

eating carbohydrates for obesity and weight loss. In the 1980's there were

several reports of in vitro and in vivo effectiveness of a natural starch

blocker that worked by inactivating the enzyme amylase. We investigated this

hypothesis with an initial pilot study. After this initial study with subjects

who were physically active during the study, we did a second study to confirm

the results. In this second study, again there was a double-blind

placebo-controlled crossover trial with ten subjects (five males and five

females aged 21 to 27) who participated with informed consent. After an

overnight fast the subjects appeared in the morning and were given in a random

fashion either 1) placebo consisting of 4 slices of white bread (60 g of

carbohydrate), 42 g of soybean oil margarine, and 4 g of Sweet N'Low; 2)

experimental comprising the control plus 1.5 g of Phaseolamin (Pharmachem

Laboratories). The subjects

rested between blood drawings. Plasma glucose was measured from blood sample

drawn at baseline and every 15 minutes for 1 hour, then every 20 minutes for the

second hour. Two subjects did not complete the study and 4 subjects were

poor/non-absorbers as the area under the glucose-time curve was negative.

Therefore the data of the remaining 4 subjects was used. As expected the control

bread produced an increase in glucose in the normal subjects that reached a

broad peak after 45 minutes. The peak glucose for the Phaseolamin group occurred

at 30 minutes. This dose of Phaseolamin produced a smaller increase than the

control from 15 to 80 minutes, with an almost significant difference (p < 0.1)

at 45 and 60 minutes. The glucose cleared from the plasma about 30 minutes

earlier with the Phaseolamin?compared to the control. The area under the plasma

glucose-time curve (a measure of glucose absorption and metabolism) was 85%

lower with the Phaseolamin , p < 0.05. Thus only 15% of the glucose

in the bread compared to the control found its way into the body in the

presence of Phaseolamin . These results show the effectiveness of the product in

decreasing the absorption of glucose from complex carbohydrates from this group

of subjects.

 

Please visit here for more information on Peat bath, i use it for my patients

here and the results are really promising.

Jamie, I have enjoyed reading the page you sent. I was surprised to find dry

eyes listed as a symtpom and is treatable. I have dry eyes also with this

rib pain and I hope I can get someone to help clear both problems up. :)

 

Do you or anyone else here, know of persons who did get rid of dry eye

syndrome using acupuncture? I would like to hear.

Liz,

 

I have already given the address in my previous emails,

 

(purchase Peat & Slim Quick from Dr Nigma west Vancouver clinic 604- 925-3037)

 

White kidney bean supplement will not reduce the absorption of nutrients it

will only decrease the absorption of glucose, so i hope it proves to be good for

you.

 

Buy atleast 10 pcs of peat and use it for 2 weeks days, most of my patients are

very happy with the results.

 

 

Hope this helps...

Couldn't this be dangerous for someone who is hypoglycemic and

potentially so for diabetics on insulin?

That thought did cross my mind when I read it, so since I already have blood

sugar issues I would tend to pass and stick with the diet which has worked. I

have never done well with grains and legumes so I wasn't going to chance it.

 

It might, however, work very well for someone else. Cat

dry eyes are a pretty standard symptom for liver heat and upper jiao heat.

check the web site www.acuxo.com and you may want to look at the points on

meridians on the head near the eye, for the related list of symptoms. i think

that the stomach and liver meridians also have a bunch of points that relate to

this symptom. i think that if you are being treated for pain near the ribs, the

symptom of dry eyes is being treated at the same time.

sent. I was surprised to find dry

eyes listed as a symtpom and is treatable. I have dry eyes also with this

rib pain and I hope I can get someone to help clear both problems up. :)

 

Do you or anyone else here, know of persons who did get rid of dry eye

syndrome using acupuncture? I would like to hear.
