为何有 人练功后明显改善了食欲和睡眠,过一段时间又变差?
(赵金香宗师)

个别人练功中意念过分追求,造成大脑皮层过度兴奋,抑制能力失调,还有少部分人晚上练功后出现大脑兴奋不能入睡,相当多的人是在气冲病灶时,造成不能入睡和兴奋。意念过分追求和晚上练功兴奋的人,可以晚间不练功,在早晨练功;气冲病灶患者,可根据自己的不同情况采取不同的办法来对待。

有人小周天、大周天通了,这是好事,如小周天在疏通时也产生各种反应,尾闾关未通之前,命门以下就有不适感;夹脊关未通时,后背就有不适感;玉枕关未通前,头部就有箍、胀等不适感;这都是正常的。此时,要在老师辅导下继续练功。

你適宜吃燕窩嗎?
Is bird's nest suitable for you?

香港中文大學的 江潤祥教授 在《Comp..Biochem. Physiol. B.Vol.87 pp.221-226》上發1表論文,指出燕窩(Collocalia)含有表皮生長因子(Epidermal Growth Factor, EGF),EGF是一個蛋白質,能刺激細胞增生,燕窩來自燕子的口涎,可能就是因為口涎中有EGF,所以一般動物在受傷後,懂得舐自己的傷口,相信是想利用口涎中的EGF,刺激受傷部分,幫助傷口快些復元。燕窩EGF令細胞增生是好事還是壞事?細胞增生是好事還是壞事?對癌症患者而言,是壞事。皮膚上有傷口,要它「埋口」,當然需要細胞增生,但不可不知,Genentech藥廠生產了一個對付「EGF接受體」的藥,叫Tarceva(學名Erlotinib),它的主要作用,是去阻止EGF令細胞增生,什么細胞?是癌細胞。目前用來治療乳癌的Herceptin,也是一個用來對付EGF接受體的抗體。有一位女仕她患有乙型肝炎,甲胎蛋白一直被控制在五百度之下,有一次,她吃了燕窩後,甲胎蛋白急升到七千度;之後,在肝掃瞄中,可見到四粒東西,一星期內暴長到四毫米,因此,在癌症患者而言,,要戒吃燕窩,這好比患有乳癌者,一定要戒吃雪蛤膏,因為其中的雌激素,可令其癌細胞增生。其實,EGF對癌症病人還有别的害處,除了會刺激癌細胞增生,它更厲害的致癌作用,是在於促進三大類! 可以增生血管的因子,分別是血管內皮細胞生長因子(VEGF)、皂性成纖維細胞生長因子(bFGF)和轉化生長因子(TGF)。癌細胞要靠血管把養分送過來,才能「快高長大」,但往往沒有血管,這好像是乾涸的田,長不出東西,如果有人從附近的河造一條引水道,那就得其所哉了。在剛出版的《Annual Review Medicine》Vol.57,鼎鼎大名的哈佛教授Judah Folkman綜合了他三十多年在血管增生方面的研究,點出了一個對抗癌十分重要的概念。這便是,當癌塊還未出現血管時,它們一般都不會致命,因為,即使癌細胞不斷增生,但由於沒有血管提供營養,這些癌都長不大。其實,除了抗癌時要抑制血管增生,在長者中很普遍的黃斑衰退症(Macular Degeneration),病因也是源自視網膜上出現了新的血管,患者因而亦須特別留意,要少吃燕窩,以防刺激自己身體,貿貿然製造多餘的血管。

以下一篇科研報道,燕窩的護膚養顏療效雖獲肯定,但令人震驚的是:婦科疾病患者或更年期以後女性應盡量少吃燕窩,否則或會誘發或加重癌病!

護膚養顏首選燕窩? 更年期以後女性忌食!

燕窩之所以令皮膚「滑滑」,並非因為骨膠原或蛋白質,而是刺激皮膚更新的「表皮生長因子」。

城市大學的研究發現,市面上的乾燕全部含表皮生長因子,部份即食燕窩則完全欠奉,即食用後沒有達到護膚效果;有學者及中醫師警告,燕窩並非老嫩皆宜,更年期以後的婦女應避免進食燕窩,否則可能誘發及加速癌細胞生長。人到中年便開始越老就越少EGF,但更年期以後的女性患癌風險較高,應避免攝取EGF,以免刺激癌細胞增生。
中醫師指出,燕窩養陰益肺,可治濕疹及慢性氣管炎,中藥價值極高,「肺主皮毛,肺氣好,皮膚自然靚。

雪耳都有相同作用,但是療效當然比燕窩差很多。」不過,他建議婦科病患者或更年期以後女性應盡量少吃,否則會「過份養陰」,誘發或加重癌病。

Is bird's nest suitable for you?

Chinese University of Hong Kong, Professor Jiang Runxiang in the "Comp .. Biochem. Physiol. B.Vol.87 pp.221-226" made a statement on the paper, pointed out that the bird's nest (Collocalia) contain epidermal growth factor (Epidermal Growth Factor, EGF), EGF is a protein, can stimulate cell proliferation, swallow the saliva from a bird's nest, probably because the saliva in EGF, so most animals after injury, know how to lick their wounds, that is to use saliva of EGF, stimulate the injured part to help the wound faster recovery. Bird's nest that cell proliferation EGF is a good thing or a bad thing?

Cell proliferation is a good thing or a bad thing? Of cancer patients, it is a bad thing. Skin wound to it "buried mouth", of course, require cell proliferation, but not know, Genentech, a pharmaceutical product against "EGF receptor," the drug, called Tarceva (Erlotinib scientific name ), its main role is to prevent the proliferation of skin cells and EGF, even? cells? Is the cancer cells. Currently used to treat breast cancer, Herceptin, is one to deal with EGF receptor antibodies. A Women she suffers from hepatitis B, alpha-fetoprotein Baidu has been under control in five, and once, after she ate a bird's nest, AFP surged to seven thousand degrees; later, in the liver scan in can see the four things a week to four millimeters long storm, so in cancer patients, in order to quit eating bird's nest, which is like suffering from breast cancer, we must quit eating Xueha cream, because estrogen can result in The cancer cell proliferation. In fact, EGF also e on the harmful effects of cancer patients, in addition to stimulate cancer cell proliferation, it is more powerful carcinogenic effect is that for three categories! Could proliferation of vascular factors, namely vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), Soap fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and transforming growth factor (TGF). Cancer cells rely on blood vessels to get nutrients back to "quickly and grow up", but often there is no blood vessels, it seems to dry land, not a long thing, if someone made the river from a nearby water conduit, then Deqisuozai out.

In the newly published "Annual Review Medicine" Vol.57, the famous Professor Judah Folkman of Harvard consolidated his thirty years of research on angiogenesis, an anti-cancer points out the very important concept. That is, when the blood vessels Aikuai yet to come, they are generally not fatal, because, even if the continued proliferation of cancer cells, but the absence of blood vessels that provide nutrition, all of these cancers grow up. In fact, when in addition to inhibiting angiogenesis cancer in the elderly are common symptoms of macular recession (Macular Degeneration), is derived from the retina causes the emergence of new blood vessels, and therefore patients should pay attention to, to eat bird's nest, to Anti stimulate your body, hastily create extra blood vessels.

Following a research report, although the efficacy of skin care beauty nests be sure, but shocking is: gynecological diseases of women after menopause should be minimal or eat bird's nest, or may induce or aggravate cancer!

Preferred skin care beauty bird's nest? Menopausal women not eat later!

The reason why skin bird's nest "slippery", not because the collagen or protein, but rather to stimulate skin renewal of the "epidermal growth factor."

City University study found that dry swallow all of the market with epidermal growth factor, part of the instant bird's nest is completely lacking, that is not reached after eating skin effect; some scholars and practitioners warned that bird's nest is not Laonen Safe, after menopause Women should avoid eating bird's nest, or it may induce and accelerate cancer cell growth. And middle-aged and old, the less the more they began to EGF, but after menopause women at higher risk of cancer, should avoid intake of EGF, to avoid stimulating cancer cell proliferation.

Practitioners pointed out that the bird's nest Yin Yifei, treating eczema and chronic bronchitis, high value of Chinese medicine, "lung skin and hair, good lung, skin naturally pretty.

Fungus has the same effect, but the efficacy of course, much worse than the bird's nest. "However, he suggested that patients with gynecological or women after menopause should be minimal to eat, otherwise they will" over-Yin ", induce or aggravate cancer.

High Blood Pressure & Kidney Disease

by Ruth St. James


Overview

According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), almost 30% of adults in the U.S. have high blood pressure (hypertension). The CDC also states that, in the United States alone, over three million adults have some form of kidney disease as well.

High Blood Pressure


High blood pressure is the result of too many fluids in the body, which increases the force on the vessel and arterial walls. Symptoms can be vague and include headache, dizziness and blurred vision.

Kidney Disease

Kidneys help process liquid waste and excess water from your body. Chronic kidney disease is when one or both kidneys have suffered a slow and gradual deterioration over time. Symptoms can include fatigue and weakness, frequent urination and headaches.

Contributing Factors

High blood pressure can directly contribute to the onset of kidney disease. Because there is too much fluid in the body, the kidneys have to work harder, which puts a strain on them. If the kidneys don't function correctly, the toxic buildup in your blood can make you very sick.

Treatments

Both conditions can be controlled by reducing the amount of salt in your diet, staying away from caffeine and limiting the amount of soda that you drink. For kidney health, also limit the amount of protein and potassium in your diet.

Long Term Effects

If blood pressure is not controlled, it can cause stroke, heart attack and death. If kidney disease is not managed, it can result in end stage renal failure, and dialysis becomes critical. Dialysis is filtering your blood through a machine because your body no longer can.

Relax

Meditation and self calming exercises like measured breathing have been proven to help lower blood pressure, which in turn can help your kidneys out. Breathe deep.

有入练功后出现腹泻是什么原因?
(赵金香宗师)

一般人腹泻是由于脾胃消化功能差,或受寒和吃了不干净的食物造成的。应当及时到医院就诊。但也有人是练功产生的气化反应,练功深化可促使人体脏腑功能改善,将以往消化功能差,长期积滞在肠胃中的秽物排出体外,这是改善消化功能的好现象,这种腹泻,多为水泻,次数虽多,但人精神不减,用不着吃药,可继续练功,一般一周左右即可恢复,所以它不同于一般肠胃疾病。

多觸摸檢查每個家人的左後上背-心俞穴

廖風德先生登山暈倒事件,暴露了我們每一位家屬的無知與無助,心血管疾病應是主要問題!

小弟看報載廖風德的相片,推定他的脖子應是經常僵硬不舒服的,因為他的臉頰不像我們一般人柔軟,臉頰靠耳的脖子也比一般人略粗,這是心血管疾病的高危險群。

之前的藝人馬兆駿就是最顯明的例子,他也是急性休克致命!

為了家人及自己的健康小弟在此提供一個最好又有效的救命方式:
平日多觸摸檢查每個家人的左後上背,左後上背肩胛骨轉彎處右方約1-2吋的心俞穴是心臟出現異常主治穴!

如心俞穴凸出者按壓會疼痛或癢(每個人的感受不一樣),小弟治過幾位客人都因感冒致呼吸不順暢(糖尿病患者更要心俞與肝俞並治),經過我幫他們解開此穴位阻塞,人就舒服了。

平日多按摩此穴就不會有心臟異常的問題,如果有人呼吸不上來,或將近休克時,用靠手腕的手掌在此心俞穴微微用力壓揉(順時針方向),不舒服者會即時恢復正常的呼吸,此時也務必給他一杯溫水,幫助血液循環。

此心俞穴因沒有前面胸骨的阻擋,按壓時就是心臟的後方穴位,所以恢復得快速!從背後治療或急救絕對比前面還快!且急救前胸骨有壓斷的危險性。

有心血管問題者、抽煙者,更要多加注意,此穴會比一般人凸出與不舒服!有爬山的山友敬請務必學會此救命的方法!

為了健康請各位看到此文章者,不要吝惜推薦此文章

Learn Sarver Heart Center's Continuous Chest Compression CPR

Dr. Gordon Ewy Every three days, more Americans die from sudden cardiac arrest than the number who died in the 9-11 attacks. You can lessen this recurring loss by learning Continuous Chest Compression CPR, a hands-only CPR method that doubles a person’s chance of surviving cardiac arrest. It’s easy and does not require mouth-to-mouth contact, making it more likely bystanders will try to help, and it was developed here at the University of Arizona College of Medicine. “This video is worth sharing,” said Gordon A. Ewy, MD, director of the UA Sarver Heart Center and one of the research pioneers who developed this method.
Sarver Heart Center’s newest video was developed to make it easy for people to learn Continuous Chest Compression CPR. Dr. Ewy is hoping the video, which is posted on YouTube, goes “viral” and gives more people the opportunity to be lifesavers. “Every day people are asked to forward e-mails to their entire contact lists. This is one e-mail link that can truly make a difference in people’s lives,” said Karl B. Kern, MD, professor of medicine at the UA College of Medicine, who chairs the Sarver Heart Center resuscitation group.
Dr. Karl KernSo, click on the link and watch the six-minute video; then send it to everyone in your address book. You may not get gold from a faraway land, or become thinner, richer, luckier or more popular, but you are likely to make a huge difference; perhaps saving someone’s life.
Be a Lifesaver with Continuous Chest Compression CPR
If you see someone collapse who isn’t responsive and has trouble breathing:
1. Tell someone to call 911 or make the call yourself.
2. Position the person with the back on the floor. Place the heel of one hand on the center of the chest (between the nipples) and the heel of the other hand on top of the first. Lock your elbows, position your shoulders over your hands and use your upper-body weight to “fall” downward. Lift your hands slightly each time to allow the chest wall to recoil. Try to compress at 100 beats per minute and about 2 inches deep until emergency help arrives.
Note: Mouth-to-mouth CPR still is recommended for drowning and very small children.
The University of Arizona Sarver Heart Center in Tucson, Ariz., emphasizes a highly interdisciplinary research environment fostering innovative translational, or “bench-to-bedside,” research. Working toward a future free of cardiovascular disease and stroke, the center’s more than 150 scientist and physician members collaborate with the goal of applying new findings from the basic sciences to the clinical arena as quickly as possible.

Don't Waste That Lemon Peel
by: Junji Takano surya


Lemon prodctions became more and more abundant around the world because of its nutritious contents. Lemons are used in many different ways in lemon industries and factories, but not among households.

## How do you eat or taste lemon in your house?
Probably, you do not know how to apply lemon the right away.
Do you just squish a few drips to your whisky, vegetable salad, bread, ice cream, roasted meat, cake, baked chicken, fruit drinks, or to your other favorable dishes? If so, what a waste!

## Here, I'll tell you the real use of lemon

I'm sure you know how nutritious a lemon is. But you may only know how to use it as a simple seasoning, as most people do, and not as a side dish. You think that only the squished juice from lemon is used, while the lemon peel is thrown away. Yes, you think that you only need that sour, citrus taste of the lemon's juice, is that right?

However, we found out that many professionals in restaurants and eateries are using or consuming the entire lemon and nothing is wasted.

How can you use the whole lemon without waste? Simple...place the lemon in the freezer section of your refrigerator. Once the lemon is frozen, get your grater, and shred the whole lemon (no need to peel it) and sprinkle it on top of your foods.

Sprinkle it to your whisky, wine, vegetable salad, ice cream, vegetable soup, chicken soup, curry soup, noodles, spaghetti sauce, rice, sushi, meat loaf, sausage, fish dishes, and ramen. It doesn't matter whether it's a Chinese dish, Italian dish, French dish, African, Indian, Japanese, Korean, or Latin American dishes, you just name it.

All of these foods will unexpectedly have wonderful taste, something that you may have never tasted before in your life. You don't believe me? Just try it and you will agree with me. Everything will certainly taste great!

Most likely, if you hear the word lemon, you only think of lemon juice and vitamin C. Not anymore. Now that you've learned this lemon secret, you can use lemon even in instant cup noodles.

## What's the major advantage of using the whole lemon other than preventing waste and adding new taste to your dishes?

Well, you see lemon peels contain as much as 5 to 10 times more vitamins than the lemon juice itself. And yes, that's what you've been wasting. But from now on, by following this simple procedure of freezing the whole lemon, then grating it on top of your dishes, you can consume all of those nutrients and get even healthier.

The lemon peel is good in making you slim if you are a fat person, or makes you healthy fat if you are skinny.

It is very good that the PYRO-ENERGEN is also for the taste of all people. It's also good that lemon peels are health rejuvenators in eradicating toxic elements in the body.

Place your lemon in your freezer, and then grate it on your meal time every day. It is a key to make your foods tastier and you get to live healthier and longer! That's the lemon secret!
