treatment for high cholesterol (Reduction Blood Platelets ) 
I want to share a secret for treating high cholesterol. Three weeks ago l went for a cholesterol check. To my surprise, it was above the normal range which should be less than 5.2 mmol/L. 
My reading obtained was 6.6 mmol/L. I had been consuming a lot of red meat and lamb recently. After consuming Black Fungus for two weeks, l had my cholesterol checked again and found that my cholesterol level fell to 4.70 mmol/L My pharmacist said that even cholesterol medication will need 1- 3 months to take effect. She was very surprised and said it is a miracle. 
Review: I immediately followed an advice of a friend who told me about Black Fungus (黑木耳- Black Fungus). He had four block heart arteries, over 90 percent blocked. His cardiologist advised him to go for bypass surgery, failing which he would suffer an imminent heart attack. His sinseh (Chinese physician) friend advised him against surgery as the procedure would be messy, painful and expensive. He followed the advice of his sinseh friend by consuming Black Fungus daily. After consuming boiled Black Fungus juice for 40 days, he went for an angiogram. His heart specialist was surprised and shocked that his arteries were all cleared of any blockage and it would not be necessary to see him for another 10 years! My observation is that Black Fungus juice is not only effective in treating high blood cholesterol but also helps to bring relief to joint paints, arthritis and poor blood circulation. The internet information claims that Black Fungus reduces blood clot, preventing thrombosis, atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease and cancer. Black Fungus contains abundant protein, ferric, calcium, vitamin, rough fiber, the content of protein is equal to meat. 黑木耳Black Fungus (Cloud Ears) (fresh and dried)

Black Fungus for Clearing Clogged Arteries

Published on April 9, 2013 by spidey in Heart

Here is a testimonial from Mr. Yu Ming Szeto on behalf of his Brother-in-Law. Thank you, Bro. Szeto, for kindly sharing!

9-April-2013
Dear Bro Lau,

With regards to the black fungus, most people have read about it in the internet many years ago, especially about a case in the US where the patient had clogged arteries and was scheduled to have a bypass surgery. The patient had taken this recipe for several weeks and his condition improved and did not have to go for surgery.

Nearer to home and based on first hand knowledge, my bro in law went to IJN Malaysia (National Heart Institute, Malaysia) about 2 years back for an angiogram and was told that he had 3 blockages, one at 95%, a second at 85% and the third about 60%. An angioplasty was scheduled in several weeks. We told him to re-schedule and take the black fungus remedy instead. He took it for 3 to 4 weeks and then went to Australia for about 10 days to attend his son’s graduation. Upon returning to Malaysia, he took it for another week or so and then went to IJN for the Angioplasty. And viola, the doctor could not find any blockages. The doctor was very very surprised as the scans are normally very accurate, especially since 3 were detected.

Some time later, my bro-in-law got to know that his Malay colleague’s father was also scheduled for an angioplasty at IJN, following a angiogram. My bro-in-law gave him the same recipe and after taking it for about 3 weeks or so, went for the angioplasty and again the doctor could not detect any blockages.

I think we have 2 solid proofs that the black fungus recipe actually works. I am still looking around for anyone else who is scheduled for angioplasty and try out this recipe. If proven right again, we can be very sure of its efficacy.

For those who have chest pain (angina), it will go away after taking this remedy for about 5 days to a week. Many people have said that they have taken this remedy but it did not work. I think what happened is that most people only take it once or twice a week or infrequently. For it to work, this remedy must be taken 2 to 3 times daily; and every day for at least 3 to 4 weeks. However, those already taking blood thinner must be careful as black fungus is also a blood thinner. It may result in uncontrolled bleeding.

Recipe.
1) Soak black fungus (1.5 to 2 handful) for about 3 to 4 hours.
2) Put black fungus, about 1 to 2 inch of ginger, and some red dates into a slow cooker (use a big one) and cook overnight or at least 6 to 8 hours.
3) Let the slow cooker cool down to touch temperature
3) Remove ginger and red dates and throw away.
4) Put everything else (soft black fungus and water) into a blender and blend until fine. The concoction will be thick and gummy. Add some boiled water if its too thick to blend properly.
5) Pour blended concoction into container (may need a big unit or several smaller ones) and keep in fridge.
6) When needed, pour blended black fungus into a glass or mug (about 2/3 full) and add hot water until full, and then stir to dilute it. Drink as soon as possible.
7) Drink the above concoction 2 to 3 times a day for 3 to 4 weeks.

May be good to repeat after 6 to 8 months for maintenance purpose. I think every adult should take this remedy as most of us would have clogged arteries at our age. If you know of anyone going for angioplasty and willing to try out this remedy please let me know.

Thanks.

With Metta,
Szetoo

Stroke : how I cure stroke myself

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/elderhealth/3355207/Stroke-I-had-to-cure-myself.html

Dr Martin Stephen 12:01AM BST 16 Jun 2008 Comments Dr Martin Stephen, High Master of St Paul's, on how, with the help of his mother-in-law, he devised his own programme of recovery after a stroke Video: Surviving a stroke Suffering a stroke was not like having the carpet ripped from under one's feet. The floor went as well. In a few hours, I was transformed from a healthy, professional 56-year-old into a lump of flesh on a hospital trolley. The skills I had learnt as a child - standing up, writing, even holding a cup - had gone, and my speech was heavily slurred. The first harsh realisation was that something very bad had happened. The second was that nobody in the hospital was going to tell me how to get better (the only advice I received comprised vague noises about the need for "rehabilitation" and "exercises"). The third realisation was a consequence of the first two: I had to get out of hospital and cure myself. Bizarrely, I owe my recovery to my mother-in-law. Her husband had received almost no help when, in 2003, he had suffered a stroke in his seventies. So she had gone on the internet - as one does at 74 - and found that major strides had been made in America in treating stroke victims. Research there showed that damaged neural pathways could be re-routed, and that a diminished signal could be sent through the outer lining of an otherwise dead nerve. The key was speed. After three or four weeks, the brain seemed to start a permanent shut-down on these pathways. So my mother-in-law invented a rehab programme, a crucial part of which was making my father-in-law sit up in bed and bounce a tennis ball off the wall - she acted as a cross between a wicket keeper and a retriever. So I decided to bounce a tennis ball 2,000 times a day off the kitchen floor, missed catches not counting. At first it was a farce. I could hardly bounce the ball, never mind catch it. The first day it took four hours to reach the target. Yet clearly more than bouncing a tennis ball was needed; I needed to identify the skills I had lost and re-learn them. For example, what use is a headmaster who can't write? So I bought an A4 pad of lined paper, and wrote out the alphabet, one line per letter, for two hours a day. The first stabs were meaningless squiggles. An intense depression swept over me. Using a keyboard proved no easier. When I tried to type my name, it read something like "nsar5un Sy4phwn". I vowed to do 10 pages a day, typing out my corrections on my latest book with one finger. The first 10 pages took three days. Headmasters need to speak, too, so I decided to recite the poems of Andrew Marvell for two hours a day, with a wine cork stuck between my front teeth, an old trick I remembered from suffering a stammer as a child. That way, you have to move the lips more to make any sense; it acts like a form of weight training. A headmaster who can't walk isn't much use either. The problem was, when I did walk again, very slowly, I moved crab-like at a 45-degree angle. So I marched up and down the stripes on the lawn for two hours a day. When the foot crossed a stripe, there was a mental slap of wrist. Finally, my wife bought me one of those old-fashioned children's games where you have to pass a wire ring over an electrified wire without touching it, thus avoiding the irritating buzz. More fun was a computer game flying a virtual F15 jet - or, in my case, crashing it thousands of times on the runway before finally landing it - after 40 hours' "flying" time. Well - sort of landing it. The undercarriage and one wing had broken off, but the computer said I was alive. The stupid game proved a turning point. Finally I had managed to achieve hand-to-eye co-ordination. It took two-and-a-half months to get back to a semblance of normality, six months before I considered myself cured. I came close to giving up the grind of rehab. But by choosing tasks like writing the alphabet or counting how many times I could walk down the lawn without crossing a stripe, I could monitor my own progress. The difference between success and failure was also the unfailing support of my wife, my three children and my employer - and a deep anger that I was not offered more help to start with. I am haunted still, three years on, by the thought of all the people who are not told that a stroke is not a death-knell, nor the end to a career or normal life.

No Oil

Debunking Food Myths: Vegetable Oils Are Not Healthy… Not Even Olive Oil, Coconut Oil or Fish Oil!

 Blog, Oil No Responses »

May292012

 

Summary

One of the biggest nutritional myth in industrialized countries is that vegetable oil, especially olive oil, is a healthy source of fat. The purpose of this posting is to provide factual evidence of two things. First, oil is not a health food. Second, oil is actually a junk food that should be avoided at all cost. These findings fly in the face of common nutritional advice so we will take the time to explain why. More details are provided below in the forms of articles and videos from medical doctors and nutritional experts who have expertise helping people reverse chronic diseases.

Fact #1

Vegetable oil does not exist in nature. It is a highly refined processed food. Most scientists, nutritionists and dietitians would agree that refined foods are not as healthy as the original whole foods found in nature. Why should oil be an exception? Last time I checked, bottles of olive oil do not grow on trees so why is a highly refined processed food considered health food?

Fact #2

Vegetable oil is an isolated ingredient. The oil had to be mechanically extracted from the original food (seed, corn, soybean, avocado, coconut, olive, etc.) This means the oil found in a bottle is no longer stored within the cell walls of the original plant food it came from. The fiber has been removed when the oil was extracted. Most of the nutritional content like vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals has also been removed. Oil is simply the pure calorie content part of the food, without the nutrients and fiber needed to slow down digestion. The nutritional term used to define a food that has a lot of calories without any nutritional value is “empty calorie”. Another term used by most people is “junk food”. Therefore, vegetable oil is junk food. Olive oil is no different than any other oil and is also considered junk food. The same applies to all other oils, including coconut oil.

Fact #3

Vegetable oil is 100% fat. There is no fiber in oil to slow down digestion. This means that oil is pure fat that gets absorbed by the human body very quickly. Vegetable oil moves from our lips to our hips in about 15 minutes. The body is very efficient at storing oil as fat in our tissues. How could a food that gets stored as fat on the human body in about 15 minutes be considered a health food when the last thing an overweight/obese human population needs is a food that makes it store fat and gain weight? The reason is because oil is compared against other unhealthy fats like butter or lard and somehow the oil industry has re-badged the term “not as bad as butter” as “healthier than butter” and then simply as “healthy”…

Fact #4

Most oils are rancid and oxidized.  One way that pure oils cause damage is because they are easily oxidized when unprotected by their natural surroundings (the ingredients provided by the rest of the food before the oil was extracted). Oxidized oils contain “free radicals” that donate electrons that damage the arteries and other tissues.

Alternatives to Oil

Vegetable oil is typically used to stir fry food or as a salad dressing. To stir fry foods, use instead a low sodium vegetable broth or just water. It will taste just as good and you will avoid a ton of empty calories. For salad dressings, just blend a piece of fruit, some vegetables, some juice, flavored vinegar and perhaps a couple walnuts or pieces of avocados. The recipes section on this site includes hundreds of oil-free salad dressings.

For the rest, oil is typically used as an ingredient in packaged processed food. We suggest you avoid these foods containing oil.

But don’t we need some fat in our diet?

This argument is often used to justify the consumption of oil. While it is true that human needs a small quantity of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, there is absolutely no need to consume vegetable oil to get the required quantity of fats. People generally have no problem getting a ton of omega-6 fats in their diet and often time need to reduce the amount of omega-6. The problem is more frequently getting the healthy omega-3 fats that are helpful in turning off inflammation. Good sources of omega-3 fats include walnuts, flax seeds, green leafy vegetables. While fish and fish oil do contain omega-3 fats, they are not safe sources because of the contaminants.

What about fish oil as a good source of DHA?

DHA is a long-chain of omega-3 fatty acids. The human body can convert short chain omega-3 fatty acids (walnuts, flax seeds, green vegetables) to long chain omega-3 fatty acids like EPA and DHA. Sometimes, certain people need or want an extra amount of DHA because the conversion by the body might be insufficient. Fish oil does contain a good amount of DHA. However, fish and fish oil are also very polluted with mercury and other contaminants. The fish did not make the DHA. The DHA came from algae (green vegetation) that floats in the ocean, got absorbed by the fish that swims all day long with its mouth open in the ocean and got stored over time in the tissue of the fish (along with other pollutants). The fish is just a middleman. Fish did not make DHA, the algae did it. Skip the middleman and get your DHA from the original source: green vegetation. There are several companies that now grow algae in clean water and prepare extra clean DHA. Plant-based DHA with veggie caps are available online for cheap dollars. If your body needs extra DHA – after you tried to get your body to make some by eating walnuts, green leafy vegetables and ground flax seeds; and got a blood test to confirm you are low – then and only then get it from a clean vegan supplement.

Evidence from the Cleveland Clinic: No Oil — Not Even Olive Oil!

Caldwell Esselstyn Jr MD of the Cleveland Clinic has shown heart disease can be reversed 100% of the time, using a plant-based diet. Olive oil — and ANY oil — increases heart disease, the same way butter does. If you want to avoid heart disease and cancer, ditch all oils, which are in any case just highly refined and processed (i.e., junk) food.

10 remedies for high blood pressure

http://www.top10homeremedies.com/home-remedies/home-remedies-for-high-blood-pressure.html

Home Remedies for High Blood Pressure

High blood pressure also referred to as hypertension is a kind of health problem where there is constant high pressure of the blood in the arteries. A person suffers from hypertension when the blood pressure reading is 140/90 mm Hg or higher. Some of the common causes of this health problem are obesity, genetic factors, excessive intake of alcohol, high intake of salt, lack of aerobic exercise, stress, birth control pills, pain relievers, kidney diseases, and adrenal diseases and so on.

If not treated on time, high blood pressure can lead to heart attacks, stroke, and kidney failure. Although medication is often prescribed for hypertension patients, one can also control it with simple natural remedies with the help of easily available kitchen ingredients.

Here are top 10 home remedies for High Blood Pressure.

1. Banana

   Banana is one such fruit that a high blood pressure patient can eat regularly to control it. Banana is a rich source of potassium which helps in controlling the blood pressure level. At the same time it has low sodium level and free of cholesterol which also help a lot. So, try to eat one or two bananas daily. Along with banana, you can also try dried apricots, raisins, currants, orange juice, spinach, zucchini, baked sweet potatoes, cantaloupe, and winter squash.

2. Garlic

   Both raw and cooked garlic is said to have properties that can help to control high blood pressure level and at the same time it can also reduce the cholesterol level. When blood pressure level is high, one must try to eat one to two cloves of garlic daily after slightly crushing it with hands. Crushed garlic cloves create hydrogen sulfide, a compound that promotes good blood flow, removes gas and reduces the pressure on the heart. Else you can make a solution by adding five to six drops of garlic juice to four teaspoon of water and have it twice a day.

3. Celery

   The high level of 3-N-butylphthalide, a kind of ‘phytochemical’ content present in celery helps a lot in controling high blood pressure level. When celery is consumed on regular basis, one can notice improvement in his or her blood pressure level. At the same time it will also help in reducing the stress hormones that constrict blood vessels, leading to high blood pressure. Try to eat one stalk of celery along with a glass of water daily. Else if you like, you can even munch on celery to lower blood pressure.

4. Lemon

   Regular consumption of lemon is also a good way to control hypertension. Lemon helps in making the blood vessels soft and pliable and removes their rigidity which in turn lowers the high blood pressure. In fact, when lemon is consumed regulalry, there is less chance of heart failure due to its invaluable Vitamin B content. Those having high blood pressure must drink fresh lemon water several times a day. It is a good idea to drink one glass of warm water with lemon juice in it early in the morning on empty stomach. For better result, do not add salt or sugar to lemon water.

5. Honey

   Honey can reduce pressure from the heart and it also has a calming effect on the blood vessels and hence it can be helpful in reducing high blood pressure. People suffering from hypertension must make it a habit to consume one to two teaspoon of honey on daily basis. It is a good idea to eat two teaspoon of honey on empty stomach in the morning. Else you can make a mixture of one teaspoon each honey and ginger juice and two teaspoon of cumin seed powder and eat it twice a day. Another effective remedy is to mix basil juice and honey in equal amount and have it on an empty stomach daily.

6. Onion Juice

   Onion can also be used to lower down the high blood pressure level. Try to eat one medium sized raw onion daily. Else make a mixture of onion juice and honey. Add half teaspoon of onion juice and half of teaspoon honey together and eat it twice a day to lower the blood pressure level. When this mixture is taken two times a day for one to two weeks, there will be huge improvement in the health.

7. Cayenne Pepper

   Those suffering from mild hypertension must eat cayenne pepper. This is one such ingredient that can help in smooth blood flow by preventing platelets from clumping together and accumulating in the blood. One can add some cayenne pepper to the plate of fruit or vegetable salad. Else one can even add a pinch of cayenne pepper powder in a bowl of soup before drinking it. As cayenne pepper can be very spicy one needs to add a little bit only. 

8. Coconut Water

   People suffering from high blood pressure must try to keep their body well hydrated. It is a good idea to drink eight to ten glasses of water daily. Along with water you can also drink coconut water which is a tasty and nutritious beverage. At the same time coconut water also helps a lot in lowering the high blood pressure level. When coconut water is regularly consumed, there will be significant improvement in blood pressure level. Along with coconut water, one can also try coconut oil for cooking.

9. Fenugreek Seeds

   The paste of fenugreek seeds is one of the most effective ways to lower the high blood pressure level. To make paste out of fenugreek seeds, take one to two teaspoon of fenugreek seeds and add them in water and boil it for around two minutes. Strain out the fenugreek seeds and with the help of a blender make a paste. Take this paste twice a day, one in the morning on an empty stomach and one in the evening. Follow this remedy for two or three months to notice significant improvement in your blood pressure level.

10. Watermelon Seeds

    Watermelon seeds contain a compound known as cucurbocitrin which helps in widening the blood capillaries. At the same time it also helps in improving the functionalities of the kidneys. This in turn helps in reducing blood pressure level and also helps a lot in arthritis. Just take two teaspoons of dried watermelon seeds, crush them gently before adding them in one cup of boiled water. Steep it for around an hour. Then strain it and take four tablespoon of this water at regular intervals in a day.

Kudzu Garden Weed you can eat.

http://www.organicgardening.com/learn-and-grow/8-weeds-you-can-eat?page=0,6 

Kudzu
Gardeners, homeowners, landscapers and foodies south of the Mason-Dixon line, take heed: Kudzu, the "weed that ate the South," can actually be eaten itself. This highly invasive weed, introduced from Japan in the late 1800s, now covers over 7 million acres of the Southern U.S. and is nearly impossible to kill. Thus, you have an unending supply with which to experiment in the kitchen. Southerners have found dozens of ways to eat kudzu, including making jams and jellies to pickling the flowers that appear in August and September. For your first efforts at cooking it, try steaming or boiling the roots until they're tender and adding soy sauce or miso, as is often done in Asian cooking. The plant is also used in Chinese medicine for treating allergies, colds, fevers and as a digestive aid. Brew a kudzu tea by chopping up a cup of leaves and boiling them for about 30 minutes to treat what ails you.
