You will need to put the tip inside a little. Always use it carefully so not to injure yourself. Wash the syringe clean with hot soapy water before using. Prepare the herbal medicine you want to use. Lay a towel or some newspapers on the bathroom floor to protect yourself. Fill the syringe with the herbal medicine. Lie down and put the syringe inside you carefully. Now slowly squeeze the medicine inside. Do not squeeze it hard or else you may injure yourself for as long as possible, 1-5 minutes. Repeat the process 2 or 3 times.

Buy a tampon, a new clean sponge or some cotton wool and soak the medicine on it. If using a sponge cut it to a good size then sterilise it before using. Insert the tampon or cotton wool inside you and keep it there for 1 to 3 hours. You can tie a string around the sponge or cotton wool so that you can remove it later easily. Boil the string first to sterilise it. Throw it away after you remove it. Do not have sex while you have cotton wool or tampons inside you as it could be pushed into the womb by mistake.

PENIS SOAK

Get a jar or can and use it only for this purpose. Clean the jar with hot soapy water before using.Fill the jar with the medicinal solution or herbal tea. Place the penis inside and soak it for 10 – 20 minutes. Use a clean sponge or a piece of cotton wool and tie a string to it for easy removal. Boil the sponge or cotton wool with medicinal oil and insert it into the anus. Let it remain there overnight. Remove in the morning and throw it away.

WATER: NATURE’S FIRST MEDICINE

To maintain the internal functions of the body with no problem and to maintain the internal liquid balance, everyone should drink enough water every day A health person can consume2-4 litres of water a day,a sick person 4-5litres, and a person suffering from skin disease, 5-6 litres. These amounts of water help cure any disease to great extent.

Drinking water is good , but water with a little lemon juice and little salt is still better. Drinking a lot of water at time is harmful, especially for heart patients.

ALCOHOLISM THE LIFE DANGER

Alcoholism is a term with multiple and sometimes conflicting definitions. In common and historic usage, alcoholism refers to any condition that results in the consumption of alcoholic beverages despite the health problems and negative social consequences it causes. Medical definitions describe alcoholism as a disease which results in a persistent use of alcohol despite consequences.

Alcoholism also referred to as dipsomania in 19^th and early 20^th centuries, may also refer to a preoccupation with or compulsion toward the consumption of alcohol and/ or an impaired ability to recognize the negative effects of excessive alcohol consumption. Although not all of these definitions specify current and on-going use of alcohol as qualifier, some do, as well as remarking on the long-term effects of consistent, heavy alcohol use, are including dependence and symptoms of withdrawal.

WHAT IS ALCOHOL?

Alcohol is created when grains, fruits, or vegetables are fermented. Fermentation is a process that uses yeast or bacterial to change the sugars in the food into alcohol. Fermentation is used to produce many necessary items everything from cheese to medication. Alcohol has different forms and can be used as cleaner, an antiseptic, or a sedative. So if alcohol is a natural product, why do people need to be concerned about drinking it? When people (the brain and spinal cord), which controls virtually all body functions.

SOCIAL FUNCTIONS OF ALCOHOL

The use of alcohol plays an important social function/role in most societies in Kenya. Alcohol is always present in meetings when elders are settling disputes and also when marriage is being arranged.

HOW MUCH IS IT SAFE TO DRING?

One of the most basic information required by officers or health care provider working in area of alcohol is the quality of alcohol being consumed. But because alcohol comes in many different forms, it is difficult to judge how much alcohol has been consumed, standard measures have been created.

WHY, DO PEOPLE DRINK?

Experimentation with alcohol during the teen years to adulthood is common. Some reasons as to why people use alcohol (and other drugs) are:

1. Curiosity

2. To feel good, reduce stress, and relax

3. To fit in/peer pressure

4. To feel older, smarter, whole/ adequate,

5. Ignorance, lack of self-esteem or aim in life.

From a very young age, kids see advertising message showing beautiful people enjoying life and alcohol. And because many parents and other adults use alcohol socially having beer or wine with dinner, for example alcohol seems harmless to many people.

HOW DOES IT AFFECT THE BODY

Alcohol is a depressant, which means it slows the function of the central nervous system. Alcohol actually blocks some of the message trying to get to the brain. This alters a person’s perceptions, emotions, movement, vision and hearing. In very small amounts, alcohol can help a person feel more relaxed or less anxious. More alcohol causes greater changes in the brain, resulting in intoxication. People who have overused alcohol may stagger, lose their coordination, and slur their speech. They will probably be confused and disoriented. Depending on the person, intoxication can make someone very friendly and talkative or very aggressive and angry. Reaction times are slowed dramatically which is why people are told not drink and drive. People who are intoxicated may think they’re moving properly when they’re not. They may act totally out of character.

When large amounts of alcohol are consumed in a short period of time, alcohol poisoning can result. Alcohol poisoning is exactly what it sounds like the body has become poisoned by large amounts of alcohol. Violent vomiting is usually the first symptom of alcohol poisoning. Extreme sleepiness, unconsciousness, difficulty breathing, dangerously low blood sugar, seizures and even death may result.

PROBLEMS OF INTOXICATION

This is probably the least acknowledged and most widespread group of alcohol related problems. It is important to realize that quite a low level of intoxication can give rise to problems such as drinking and driving, minor domestic accidents, disagreements or hangovers. Most obvious effects of the intoxication are family arguments, theft, domestic violence, child neglect/abuse, abseeintism, from work, public drunkard ness, public aggression and road traffic offenses.

ACIDITY, INDIGESTION, HEARTBURN AND GAS

ACIDITY: Physical weakness, acidic or watery belching, dizziness, burning stomach, heartburn etc.

INDIGESTION (dyspepsia):

Belching with a bad smell, watering of the mouth, distension of the stomach, loss of appetite, aversion to food, offensive internal gas, physical weakness, fretful temper, constipation or loose stool containing food particles.

ACID REFLUX:

Bitter or sour belching and spitting yellow vomit or undigested food.

CAUSES

Indigestion (dyspepsia) originates mainly from unbalanced eating habits. Parasites or infection may lead to symptoms of indigestion. Indigestion may be caused by low body temperature. Eating when one is not hungry or only half-hungry is harmful in this disease. So is eating rich food for many days, drinking alcohol, not resting after the meal before running off to work. Over-eating at a meal, eating quickly or not chewing food well can also cause indigestion. According to traditional wisdom, it is better to fill the stomach1/2 with food, ¼ with water and1/4 empty for air.

So it better to eat frequent small meals rather that over-filling yourself at one meal. Some gas(flatulence) from the lower colon is sign of a healthy colon. A lot of gas is cause for concern only if has a bad odour would indicate candida overgrowth. If this is the case, consider garlic enemas. Flatulence after eating beans is normal, and odour-free gas is normal and indicative of healthy colon. You can reduce the gas in beans by cooking the beans with fennel seeds or a few bay leaves spice, found in supermarkets. Acid reflux can be caused by excess stomach acid and or bile. When severe, it can cause ulcers in the stomach and colon.

PREVENTION

Food combining Tips: The stomach uses different enzymes to digest proteins or vegetables or fruits. Too many different dishes or foods in single meal can`` confuse’’ the stomach and cause indigestion. Correct foods combination may help digestion. Mix as few dishes of food as possible. Eat proteins ( meats, beans) first, then follow with vegetables and grains( maize, rice, bread). Don’t eat sweets or fruit together with vegetables. Do not consume sodas just after meal. They will dilute hydrochloric acid, which is necessary for protein digestion. Never eat fast or under stress. Chew food slowly and mix a lot of saliva with mouthful.Do not cook with aluminium pots. Especially do not boil herbal medicines in aluminium. They interact with food and herbs in poisonous way. Alluminiun pots can cause indigestion, gas, nausea, stomach pains, constipation and hard stools. Invest in some stainless steel pots, they cost only a bit more than aluminium pots.The money that you save in medicines for bad stomach pains will pay the cost of the pots many times over.

ACIDITY: Physical weakness, acidic or watery belching, dizziness, burning stomach, heartburn etc.

INDIGESTION (dyspepsia):

ACID REFLUX:

Bitter or sour belching and spitting yellow vomit or undigested food.

GREAT HEALTH BUILDING

Great health can be achieved through many ways, natural immune boosting system to fight against the opportunistic diseases, balanced diet and good sanitation. Improving immunity starts with the digestive system which is responsible for turning food into energy and materials that your body needs to maintain itself .The cells of your body grow and change whereby they use different chemicals, vitamins and enzymes to maintain and do work they are supposed to do. The used nutrients are thrown away as waste products. Remember that there is direct relationship between nutrition and prevention of diseases. We know that poor nutrition can undermine the body immune system leaving us venerable to many other forms of diseases. Poor nutrition ultimately shows up in age related condition such as osteoporosis and arteriosclerosis which can make our older years full of suffering, discomfort and disease. There has been a nutrition challenges in today’s life which are completely beyond our control considering that the air we breathe, indoors and out, is polluted with the by-product of industry and exhaust.

Keeping proper sanitation is one of basic facts about health because water we drink is no longer pure and hundreds of chemicals have already been identified in most of the water we drink especially urban water supply and other water supply. Many of the foods we eat are stripped of nutrients through reefing and process or contaminated with pesticides, fungicides, sulphites and preservatives. Our grocery shelves are lined with products that are highly refined containing preservatives, high fat content, high salts and? All the bypass surgeries, organ transplants, biopsies and prescription drugs can extend our lives, but can financially draining. Doctors seem to focus their attention on the effects of these deadly diseases. Scientific research has shown that they can be prevented or well managed with proper nutrition hence the need and rapid growth of nutritional supplements. The small intestines are where most of the nutrition from food gets sent into the blood to feed all parts of the body. If intestines are not doing their job, then the goodness from the food does not reach the rest of the body. Everything gets affected by malabsorption. The neither colon nor large intestine is the waste management system of the collecting point for all the garbage of body, which it eliminates as stool. If the intestine is not working well, the waste products can become a factory of disease producing many problems. Clean health intestine are secret to anyone’s health. The cleansing of the body is very important to avoid toxins re-absorbed in the body. A strong liver is very vital to health in many functions. Eating wrongly can cause weakening of liver as well as too many fatty and fried foods. Improver functioning of the liver can lets to indigestion, constipation, gallstones, haemorrhoids and jaundice. A health digestive system is the key to health. Medicines are not the answer to long term health moreover there is no pill or medicine can make your digestive system work. Key to your digestive is eating right and making sure your digestive is doing well. Factors like poor appetite, impaired digestion, a toxic colon or liver are common threads that link all chronic illness. In conclusion we live a lifestyle of convenience and abundance and many of us have become overfed but undernourished.

ENEMA AND IMPLANTATION FOR GOOD HEALTH:

An enema is using water or herbal infusion and filling the rectum and colon with it. One needs special enema equipment for this process. An enema can be very useful in cleaning out the colon (large intestines) and absorbing walls. The enema equipment is usually a 1 litre container, some tubing with a cutoff valve and special nozzle that will fit in the rectum. Enema equipment is available through Abha light. Prepare the warm(not hot), boiled water or warm herbal infusion and fill the plastic container with it. For PLWHAs, add 2 tablespoons of vinegar.

Begin by having a bowel movement first. Lie down on bathroom floor or in a long bathtub. Place a towel on floor for comfort. Lie on right side. Put some petroleum jelly on the tip of the nozzle so that it will insert into the rectum easily. Put the nozzle into the rectum only about 5cm(2 inches). Open the valve and allow the water or medicine to enter the rectum. This will feel a bit uncomfortable. When the colon starts to contract to expel the liquid, shut off the valve. Lay on your back. Remove the nozzle. Relax, but hold the water in.Try to hold as much water as possible, up to minutes. When it can’t be held any longer, rush to toilet or release yourself in bucket you have near you for the purpose.( you will disinfect the bucket afterwards.) Repeat the process1 to 2 more times trying to enable yourself to contain up to 11/2-2litres

Do not do more than 3 enemas in a session. It may need a few enemas and afew days to completely clean out the colon. An implantation is to use a herble infusion and let it remain inside until it is completely absorbed. Insert a small amount ¼ to ½ cup of liquid into rectum and allow it remain. It may be possible after a few minutes to stand up without it coming out. After about ½ hour it will be absorbed completely. Consult a doctor or herbal advisor about which herbs are appropriate for enema. An enema can clean out the colon well. Much old stool, parasites, worms can be cleaned out if this process is repeated after a period of time, about 7or10 days.However ,do not repeatedly use enemas in constipation for the purpose of passing stool. Such overuse will cause more constipation because the intestines will ``forget’’ how to function properly on their own.

DIABETES TIME- BOMB TO THE SOCIETY:

Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by blood sugar (glucose) levels that result from defects in insulin secretion or action or both. Diabetes mellitus, commonly referred to as diabetes (as it will be in this article) was first identified as a disease associated with ``sweet urine’’, and excessive muscle loss in the ancient world. Elevated levels of blood glucose (hyperglycaemia) lead to spillage of glucose into the urine, hence the term sweet urine.

Normally, blood glucose levels are tightly controlled by insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas. Insulin lowers the blood glucose level. When the blood glucose elevates insulin is released from the pancreas to normalize the glucose level. In patients with diabetes, the absence or insufficient production of insulin causes hyperglycemia.Diabetes is chronic medical condition, meaning that although it can be controlled, and its lasts a lifetime.

IMPACT OF DIABETES IN SOCIETY:

Over time, diabetes can lead to blindness, kidney failure, and nerve damage.These types of damage are the result of damage to small vessels, referred to as microvascular disease.Diadetes is also an important factor in accelerating the hardening and narrowing of the arteries(atherosclerosis),leading to strokes, coronary heart disease and other large blood vessel diseases.This is referred to as macrovascular disease.Diabetes affects approximately 17 million people(about 8% of the population) in the united states. In addition an estimated additional 12 million people in united states have diabetes and don`t even know it.Some supplements such as omega3, aloe vera juice, garcinia and bee propolis are used to control diabetes.

CAUSES OF DIABETES

Insufficient production of insulin (either absolutely or relative to the body`s needs).production of defective insulin which is un common or inability of cells to use insulin properly and efficiently leads to hyperglycaemia and diabetes. This latter condition affects mostly the cells of muscle and fat tissues and results in condition known as insulin resistance. This is the primary problem in type2 diabetes. The absolute lack of insulin usually secondary to destructive process affecting the insulin producing beta cells in pancreas is the main disorder in type 1 diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, there also a steady decline of beta cells that adds to the process of elevated blood sugars.

Essentially, if someone is resistant to insulin, the body can to some degree, increase production of insulin and overcome the level of resistance. After time, if production decreases and insulin cannot be released as vigorously, hyperglycaemia develops. Glucose is a simple sugar found in food.Glucose is an essential nutrient that provides energy for the proper functioning of the body cells.Carbohydrates are broken down in the small intestine and the glucose in digested food is then absorbed by the intestinal cells into the bloodstream, and is carried by the bloodstream to all the cells in the body where it is utilized.However,glucose cannot enter the cells alone and needs insulin to aid in its transport into the cells.Without insulin, the cells become starved of glucose energy despite the presence of abundant glucose in the bloodstream. In certain types of diabetes, the cells’ inability to utilize glucose gives rise to the ironic situation of`` starvation in the midst of plenty’’.The abundant, unutilized glucose is wastefully excreted in the urine. Insuline is hormone that is produced by specialised cells(beta cells)of the pancreas. Pancreas is important in reasing more insulin into bloodstream to help glucose enter the cells and lower blood glucose levels after meal.When the blood glucose levels are lowered, the insulin release from the pancreas is turned down. In conclusion diabetes can be controlled by absorbing proper diet and accepting it.
