Solution 5: Biofeedback: Consciously alter unconscious procedures

Frequency Specific Microcurrent

Vagus Nerve

Unhealthy microbiome creates inflammation in gut

Solution 4: Accupuncture

Acupuncture help in inflammatory issues such as acid reflux 

Acupuncture works for digestive issues – putting pressure on points in body , nerve reflex and send blood to organs

Histamine- causing seasonal allergies , a lot in neurotransmitters in brain and in gut

A lot of issues are caused by inflammatory response being turned on

—->antihistamine

when there’s a wound or hurt, body gets on immunity and deflamatory more and goes to heal, repair and build but after this , body should get into a switch off phase but for a lot of chronic inflammatory cases body forgets to switch off the repair mode

Thru acupuncture we can tell the body the work has been done and we can go into resolve and switch off—————Mel Hopper Koppelman

This is super super interesting and got me thinking,  isn’t that me?

Yes! That’s me, in my experiences when life held out hard knocks , the inabilities of lack of wisdom for awareness sent my body in fight mode, and fight I did!

I fought so hard I gave it my all, suppressing everything else that came to me, emotions mainly. I could not hear or heed my emotions nor the body. Things get intense and I put up stronger fights.

All I did in the past is fight fight fight. For 30 years perhaps, I fought. And the body is so used to this mode of putting up a fight putting up resistance to put things back into place—-its the only thing the body knew, or what I train the body to know

But fighting to put things back in place is not the only way out. My senses and wisdom has evolved to understand this, but my body and mind, out of habit and inertia is still behaving this way, at least, looking this way habitually, and in a snap. To repair to build. To be the one to solve problems—all these taught reactions.

If this has never stopped and has always repeated itself in the last 20 or 30 years, how can i switch it off? How can I start to new reaction? A new way ?

Learn to pause? That was what Mr Ng has always been saying to me. Pause and choose your course of action so that you do not react to situations. I remember how he would put up his 2 hands to show me action and reaction. The space in between is the pause and I can choose the action.

Not easy, but I will try. If I can get to this point, to know and see this point, I am close to the way out. SO learning to pause and practicing to pause might be a way out I can experiment with.

Then, rewire, change how I think. That will change how my body works or structures its activities. Again, this is awareness. SO it seems meditation and giving myself the space to be with awareness is extremely important to create change,

For so long I have been finding out why the inflammation is still going on at the keloids 

This could be, wow

And If I can watch this video , it means the answer isn’t far off

Solution 3: Functional Mushrooms

Research on Mushrooms and Gut Health

Deep link between Bacteria and Fungi

Eg Beer and wine have yeast, a type of fungi that works with bacteria

Eg kombucha 

Our gut is full of bacteria and fungi , gut is one of the place we absorb nutrients, our first or second brain and the digestive system and gut is probably where the start of inflammation 

Mushrooms have the ability to help break down organic and inorganic matter, vacuum clean our system internally.

Its a cleaning facility: mushrooms breaking down into forms or things others/ we can utilise Eg that’s why mushrooms grow very close to dead or dying trees in nature, and they do the same in our gut 

They are taking all the good and bad things and converting to things we can use.

Mushrooms contain polysaccharides: many sugars, is carbohydrates and fibre and the most studied nutrients in world 

In oats in goji in functional mushrooms 

They create harmony , modulate immune system

Beta Glucans- sugars found in fungi—————Tero Isokauppila

Solution 2 Medicinal Herbs

Capacity to be in the present with uncomfortableness 

—————Jason Blalack

liver is vital for healing gut

Peppermint oil for gut health, motility, to clean up gut, bio acids, anti microbial ———–Angie Martinez

Turmeric/ curcumin

Curcumin is extract of tumeric, more difficult to absorb and quickly excreted so to overcome that, combine with oil or black pepper for body to hold on to it, when that happens curcumin is useful

But is 30 times stronger than turmeric in in vitro studies

but in living organisms, clinically Tumeric root gives better results

And in high doses tumeric is gastro protective, 15 more compounds than curcumin

and in high doses, curcumin disturbs gastric mucosal 

the herb is the active constituent 

Tumeric help neuro, muscular skeletal, gut, liver, kidney—— helps with inflammatory —————David Winston

Approach to staying healthy

Problem with common sense is not too common, how do you make yourself more resilient ?

Issues are mostly caused by bad food n food system, so how do you create immune system-use healthy whole foods! Be on a great diet, use spices gingers, stay connected

Sugar and starch are immune destroyers—————Mark Hyman

Solution 1 Nutrition

Superfoods

True preventive medicine= actively prevent and reverse using natural approaches

Think: human body is ecosystem

Who we are: genes ; immune system;  nutrition , gut microbiome

Need for integrative approach 

Human body can produce what we need, but otherwise we need to supplement

Tuning microbiomes with nutrition to produce healthy biochemicals

Treat diseases with nothing but nutrition 

Dysbiosis: imbalance

So feed a different diet to produce beneficial chemicals and deny food that microbiomes use to produce disease 

every person will require different nutrition—————Momo Vuyisich

All disease begins in the leaky gut—Harvard Prof Dr Alessio Fasano
