DIABETES, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE - GANODERMA LUCIDUM

Ganoderma Lucidum has been known for centuries for alkalizing and oxygenating the body to establish the foundation for a lifetime of good health, removing the basis for osteoporosis, arthritis, adult-onset diabetes, heart disease, and many other degenerative conditions including cancer.

 No disease can survive in a super oxygenated environment. When your body has sufficient oxygen, it thrives. Ganoderma Lucidum or Reshi Mushroom is a super herb which rapidly oxygenates your body and automatically adjusts your PH to a healthy balance at the cellular level.

Weight Loss: Oxygen is a necessary component for burning fuel. The more you oxygenate the body, the higher your metabolism. That means weight loss.

Ganoderma is backed up with evidenced based documented research in reducing cholesterol levels and easing allergy-related inflammation of the airway.

Often used as an immune stimulant by people with cancer (as well as HIV), Ganoderma has been shown to strengthen immunity as well as combat cancer-cell proliferation.                  


BENEFITS OF GANODERMA FOR SPECIFIC HEALTH CONDITIONS

·        Alcoholism and cirrhosis of the liver. Ganoderma helps to prevent alcohol-induced fatty liver and cirrhosis. It is beneficial for people in earlier stages of alcoholic liver disease who have not yet experienced severe loss of liver function.

·        Bronchitis and yeast infection. Ganoderma stimulates the maturation of immune cells known as macrophages, which engulf and digest infectious bacteria. This prevents secondary infections from developing into cases of chronic bronchitis. Mature macrophages also are active against yeasts, making ganoderma a valuable treatment for yeast infection.

 ·        Fibroids (uterine myomas). Ganoderma keeps the uterine lining from making both basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a chemical that promotes fibroid growth, and histamine, a chemical that causes inflammation.

 ·        High blood pressure. There is evidence that ganoderma can lower both blood pressure and blood-cholesterol levels. Russian scientists screening mushrooms as potential cholesterol-lowering drugs have found that ganoderma extracts stop the accumulation of cholesterol in the arteries of laboratory animals. Two controlled clinical studies have investigated the effects of ganoderma on high blood pressure in humans. Both found it could lower pressure significantly as compared with a placebo. The subjects with high blood pressure in the second study had not previously responded to medications.

·        Stress. Eastern physicians have recognized for centuries that ganoderma can reduce emotional outbursts during long-term stress. Additionally, doctors at the Hijitaki Clinic in Tokyo have found that ganoderma helped to decrease physical pain dramatically in two people with neuralgia and two other people with shingles (herpes zoster).

  Prevents and fights cancer: Ganoderma stimulates the body's production of interleukin-2, which fights several types of cancer, and it contains compounds called ganoderic acids, which act against liver cancer. Ganoderma counteracts the suppression of red and white blood cells that can result from cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan, Neosar) treatment by stimulating the creation of protein in the bone marrow. In 1931, Otto Warburg won a Nobel Prize for the connection he discovered between oxygen and cancer. His studies showed that the number one cause of cancer is a lack of oxygen in the cellular environment. Warburg determined that cancer cells are anaerobic, meaning they thrive in an oxygen-depleted environment. Conversely, cancer cells cannot live in an oxygen-rich environment. Warburg also wrote about oxygen’s relationship to the pH of cancer cells and the body’s terrain. He said that cancer maintains a lower pH, as low as 6.0, due to lactic-acid production and elevated CO2. Warburg believed that higher pH (more alkaline) meant higher concentrations of oxygen, and vice versa. What Warburg discovered for cancer is true for all degenerative diseases. Oxygen and a healthy pH balance are the foundational keys to a healthy body.

. Treament of Diabetes
The constitutes in Ganoderma lucidum that reduce blood glucose are Ganoderma B and C. The principle is by enhancing utilization of blood glucose by body tossues. Ganoderma lucidum serves as a substitute to insulin to inhibit release of fatty acids. It thus improves symptoms in high blood glucose and high urine glucose patients. Blood glucose will be reduced from 173 to 116, cholesterol from 233 to 179, beat-protein from 580 to 465. Water-solubility polysaccharides in Ganoderma lucidum suppresse insulin-independent diabetes. The health food products manufactured by Japan Numata Kenji, has been widely used for the treatment of diabetes.

. Effect on Chronic Bronchitis & Bronchus Asthma
Ganoderma lucidum can stop coughing, clear sputum, and suppress asthma. It also relieves the symptoms of the related illnesses. Since Ganoderma lucidum can activate the immune system, it can prevent from flu, and thus above syndromes. Ganoderma lucidum is particularly suitable for the treatment of the patients categorized as "cold and wet" by Chinese medicine, while for the "hot and dry" patients would be relatively less effective. The average effectiveness is 80%.






Other health benefits of Ganoderma Lucidum include the following:

·        Helps balance blood sugar and pancreatic functions

·        Helps protect against skin cell degeneration

·        Helps improve skin texture

·        Helps reduce appearance of aging

·        Helps eliminate toxins from the body

·        Helps increase metabolism

·        Helps fight and inhibit free radicals

·        Helps unclog arteries and supports liver function

·        Helps improve sexual functions

·        Helps reduce fatigue and improve sleep

·        Help improve the digestive system

·        Relieves sinuses congestion and other respiratory problems

·        Helps rejuvenate body tissues and cells

·        Helps increase brain power and clarity

·        Helps provide energy and vigour

·        Helps rejuvenate and oxygenate the body

·        Helps strengthens the immune system

·        Helps support the regulation of blood pressure

·        Helps balance cholesterol

·        Effectively aids in the healing of skin wounds, scrapes, psoriasis, mouth ulcers, external     bleeding,    bug bites and stings

The Truth About FIBER – How To Manage Your Blood Sugar level, Lower Your Cholestrol or Loose Weight The Natural Way

Why do you eat? Yes, why do you eat?

When you put food in your mouth this is what happens, the food goes through digestion, then the  NUTRITIONAL VALUE of that food is transferred into your body through your small intestine. Then the waste from that food is processed and eliminated from your body through your colon.
So, if what you are eating has little or no nutritional value, then gradually you’re doing more harm than good to your body.

We know exactly what our cars need to function more effectively and efficiently. No matter how petrol and diesel prices go up, we’ll never dilute our petrol and diesel because we know if we do we will spoil our engine. If we could only treat our hearts like we do with our artificial heart (car engine) I don’t think heart attack will become the number killer disease in the world.

I consider dietary fiber as one of the most important nutrients if not as important as water because of its health benefits to our body. If you can’t go through the day without water, you shouldn’t go through it without fiber either. 

Do you now that many people have diabetes but haven’t realized it yet? And Fiber is a good thing for people with diabetes because it doesn’t raise blood sugar levels.

The fiber in an apple or a slice of whole grain bread has no effect on blood sugar levels because it isn’t digested. Studies have shown that people with diabetes who ate the most fiber each day were better able to control their blood glucose levels than those who ate the least.

So, what is FIBER? Dietary Fiber mostly includes carbohydrates the body can’t breakdown or absorb. Because this roughage can’t be digested, our bodies don’t use it as an energy source. But it’s still an essential part of a healthy diet.

There are two (2) types of Fiber, Soluble and Insoluble depending on whether the fiber dissolves during digestion.

SOLUBLE FIBER is found in whole grains like oats, barley as well as fruits like flax-seed, peas, beans, apples, citrus fruits and carrots. Soluble fiber dissolves in water to form a gel like substance that slows down digestion. And this can help stabilize blood sugar levels and curb hunger. It helps you feel full quicker and longer so you end up eating less at meal time and less throughout the day. And that’s important for maintaining a healthy weight and even for helping to prevent or control Type 2 Diabetes.

INSOLUBLE FIBER is the second kind of fiber and your body doesn’t break this stuff down at all. So, it moves through your digestive system and ends up in the colon. It basically can be called roughage because it adds bulk to your bowl movements. It helps to ease defecation and it helps you have a regular bowl movement. It helps prevents diverticulitis, hemorrhoids, constipation and colon cancer. Insoluble fiber is found in whole wheat, dark green leafy vegetables and nuts. 

There’s a solid body of research that points to Fiber as important in preventing or controlling heart disease.  Consuming soluble fiber can help lower Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) or bad cholesterol levels, and that protects your entire cardiovascular system.

Some studies even suggest that regular fiber intake could lower your risk of developing several types of cancer. But more research needs to be done. 

The real fiber that you want comes from WHOLE FRUITS and VEGETABLES and WHOLE GRAINS. So, here are the best foods for high fiber diet:

VEGETABLES HIGH IN FIBER – 1 medium Avocado = 12g of Fiber, 1 cup coloured greens = 5g of fiber. Other vegetables high in Fiber are carrots, cheek peas, and egg plant. Half a cup of broccoli contains about 3g of fiber. But keep in mind that Broccoli, Brussel Sprouts, Cabbage and Spinach which are high in fiber are also goitrogenic. 1 cup cooked spinach = 4.3g Fiber, 1 medium cooked Artichoke = 10.3g Fiber. Cooking does not change vegetable’s fiber content.
LEGUMES & BEANS – They are high in fiber, easy to prepare and inexpensive. 1 cup of cooked Lentles has over 15g of Fiber. Other beans like Black Beans, Kidney Beans, Navy Beans and Lima beans are also very high in Fiber.

HIGHEST FIBER FRUITS – A lot of dried fruits are high in fiber. Dry figs for example contain a lot of fiber. Just three (3) of them contains about 10g of fiber. But keep in mind that dried fruits generally do contain some calories. So, if you’re watching your intake of calories, you might opt for lower sugar options or whole fruits. 1 medium Apple with the skin on it has 4g of fiber. 1 Pea with the skin has 5g of fiber. Mango and Guava are also high in fiber.

Other high fiber foods are whole grain bread, bran cereal , oat bran, oat meal and a cup of whole grain spagetti contains about 6g of fiber. 1 cup of whole Wheat Pasta has 6g of fiber.

NUTS & SEEDS: Nuts like almonds, peanuts, walnuts and cashews are high in fiber. 1 cup whole almonds has over 17g Fiber (about 24 Almonds has 4g Fiber), 1 cup Sun flower seeds = 14g Fiber. Please note Nuts and Seeds are also high in fat.

1 Tomatoe has 2g of fiber, Brown Rice has 3g of fiber, White Rice only has 1/2g of fiber, sweet potatoe baked with the skin on it has 4g of fiber, 1 cup of Blackberrys/Rasberrys = 8g of fiber, dried Apracuts, Prunes, Figs, kiwi are all pretty high in fiber.

There’s a complete difference in fiber intake between the juice and the real fruit.  If you eat a whole orange, you’re getting about 4g of fiber in that orange. However, if you’re drinking a cup of orange juice, you’re only getting half of the fiber. Half a cup of green peas has 5g of fiber.

Now, how much fiber should you be eating?

The Natural Academy Of Science Institute Of Medicine recommends that men under 50 years eat about 38g/DAY fiber and women under 50 years eat 25g/DAY fiber. Adults over 50 years may need 30g/DAY and women 21g/DAY of fiber.

Now, stay clear of refined or processed foods like canned fruits and vegetables, coke fruit juices, white rice, white breads, white pasta and non whole grain cereals. They are all low in fiber contents because the refinary process removes the bran from the grain and the skin from the fruits and vegetables (The less refined the grains, the greater it’s fiber content). And that’s where most of the fiber is

Be sure to increase your fiber intake slowly. Start by adding a couple of high fiber foods each day, and allow your body to adjust to your new diet. Increasing fiber intake too quickly can cause stomach upset. And also fiber works best when you drink a lot of water. So, drink plenty of water each day if you’re consuming more fiber.

Now, if you’re trying to manage your blood sugar level, lower your cholesterol or loose weight, it’s important that you try and add fiber to your diet. It’s easier than you think. It’s not that rough. Get some FIBER!
