I want to tell you a secret that not many people in the medical industry and alternative medicine community know or don’t talk about. And this is about the real cause of disease. And if you ever want to really do something about your health, this is where you have to go to stop disease.

What I am about to tell you will only be believed by a few people. For those of you who believe and take action will, you will literally extend your life beyond belief.

We are all taught to believe that by taking some drug, herb, vitamin, mineral, or special combination of natural products that this will cure our disease. Yes, I teach that many products can help to relieve specific symptoms and that they help to balance your body systems. And, of course, you need to take vitamins and minerals to supplement your diet to make sure your body has a surplus of the building blocks needed to keep you healthy.

Doctors tell you that if you have a disease of any kind they have a drug that you should take if you want to eliminate that disease. Any time you use a drug or natural product to eliminate a symptom or a condition you are not curing your disease. You can see this in the many people who use these products and later die of that same disease or of some other disease caused by the drug. What you are doing is suppressing the cause of the symptom, which will later cause another symptom in another area of your body. The result is you are constantly fighting and trying to eliminate different unhealthy condition in and on your body.

The cause of most diseases is changes in the cellular instructions that tell the cell what it needs to do to survive in the conditions that surround it.

Cellular instructions are part of the genetic code that you get during your development in the womb and during your childhood. As you begin to develop and grow, you must adapt to the conditions and environment around you. To do this, your cells get new instructions on what you need to do to survive in this environment, whether it is in the womb or during your childhood.

If you had a traumatic period in the womb, during birth, or during childhood, these experiences are imprinted into your cell structure distorting and changing your cellular instructions. These new instructions cause cellular malfunction, which lead to the start of a disease.

The imprinted experience is a source of energy that constantly maintains the distorted cellular instructions, which causes disease and also distorts your behavior and personality. Because a disease is caused by the traumatic energy imprinted into your cells, you will always have this disease no matter how many drugs or natural remedies you use.

Drugs and natural remedies create a force that opposes the un-natural energies created by your cells and has the effect of temporarily reducing the symptoms or disease you are dealing with.

So, the only way that you can really cure yourself of disease is by eliminating the distorted, un-natural cellular instructions. This is no easy job and cells will resist because they know that the imprinted traumatic energy was put there as a matter of survival.

The Psychotherapy Industry has had tremendous growth because of the promise it holds to you that it can change who you are and at the same time improve your health. It is only through some Psychotherapy that you can change the strength of the energy that is imprinted in your cells. Once the strength of the imprinted traumatic energy is reduce, you can expect to see changes in diseases that you have, provided that they have not damaged your body a point of disrepair.

For both males and females, the increase in androgens during puberty can cause these sebaceous glands to produce more sebum, which is oil. This oil mixes with dead skin cells and bacteria on the skin and blocks pores. Inside of these blocked pores bacteria multiplies and leads to swelling, which then causes spots and pimples.

This was after spending many years and lots of money on all the different acne products on the market. They all proved to be ineffective, expensive and a complete waste of time. This included the big acne products widely promoted on the internet.

Has anyone ever told you that poor hygiene causes acne? Not true. Though poor hygiene can lead to other health problems, acne is not one of them. As a matter of fact, people that wash their faces too often have a greater risk of developing acne.

What I discovered about acne and how to clear it is this. Food is a direct cause of acne. Some foods cause acne and some help fight against acne. This is because some foods cause something called hormonal inflammation, and this is what causes acne in every case.

Please remember that no treatment will completely cure your acne. The main aim of the treatment of acne is to prevent new spots appearing on the skin. However, advances in laser treatment have made it possible to remove scars and now is being used to treat acne worldwide. We know more today than ever before about the treatment of acne.

Remember that it can take 3-6 weeks to see any improvement after beginning treatment for acne.

How much vegetable oil you eat each day will greatly affect how much acne you get, and also, how bad your acne will be. I highly recommend you cut down today. Go and check the ingredients of all the food you eat regularly and make sure no vegetable oil is in it. Avoid vegetable oil for 3 days and watch your skin clear up DRAMATICALLY.

I’m not saying that avoiding vegetable oil will completely cure your acne, but I’m sure that it will reduce your acne significantly and stop those nasty cystic eruptions that cause the worst suffering.

Oil is not the only acne cause. There are other causes. Acne has so many interconnecting causes and this makes it very difficult to have a permanent cure for acne.

Luckily, there are ways to control some of the causes of acne so well that it appears as though acne is permanently cured.

A surprisingly large number of newborn babies can also be affected by a type of acne too. This form of acne usually affects infants between about the ages of 2 weeks and 3 months. Baby acne is known by the term Acne neonatorum, and tends to be often seen on baby’s cheeks or nasal bridge.

Alzheimer’s disease is progressive, which means that symptoms worsen over time. Language difficulties also are common in people with Alzheimer’s disease. People with Alzheimer’s can lose their sense of time and place – they may, for example, get dressed in the middle of the night or walk off and get lost. New surroundings and new people may be confusing. The disease typically progresses to the stage where it is difficult for the patient to be understood by others or to understand others, and in the final stages, the patient is bedridden. Free radicals are another factor in the formation of tangles and plaques. Free radicals are very active chemicals that form in the brain and damage brain cells. Chemicals known as antioxidants react with and destroy free radicals. Unfortunately there is no cure for Alzheimer’s. However, drugs can help to slow down the progression or relieve some symptoms and delay the need for residential care. Other therapies and support are available.

Causes of Alzheimers Disease

The exect causes of alzheimers disease are currently not known. Alzheimer’s is caused by a loss of brain cells, as well as changes in the cerebral cortex. Free radicals are another factor in the formation of tangles and plaques. Free radicals are very active chemicals that form in the brain and damage brain cells. Chemicals known as antioxidants react with and destroy free radicals. Another risk factor is heredity. People whose family members have had AD are more likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease than those whose families do not have this history. People who have hypothyroidism or have experienced head injuries are also at relatively high risk for AD. Environmental factors have sometimes been proposed as possible causes for Alzheimers disease.

Symptoms of Alzheimers Disease

The earliest symptom of Alzheimer’s disease is memory loss. Memory loss by itself is not an indication that a person has Alzheimer’s disease. Some memory loss is a natural part of growing old. People with Alzheimer’s can lose their sense of time and place – they may, for example, get dressed in the middle of the night or walk off and get lost. In early stages of the disease, family or friends may notice changes in behaviour. As the disease progresses, memory loss gets worse and some people have difficulty in learning new skills. Changes in behaviour may become more obvious, with people saying or doing things that are out of character. Some people become depressed because they realise what is happening to them. During the late stages of the disease, people with Alzheimer’s may become totally dependent on others for their care. Walking can become difficult and urinary incontinence may develop.

Treatment of Alzheimers Disease

There is currently no cure and virtually no medical treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. However, drugs can help to slow down the progression or relieve some symptoms and delay the need for residential care. A type of drug called cholinesterase inhibitors are used for people with moderate Alzheimer’s disease. They work by reducing the breakdown of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, levels of which are low in Alzheimer’s. There are three such drugs available: donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine and galantamine. Another drug, memantine, was launched for people in the late stages of Alzheimer’s. Sometimes anti-depressant medicines are prescribed to help treat the depression that can be associated with Alzheimer’s disease. Some people may benefit from anti-psychotic medicines.

Vitamin E is also sometimes used.

Peyronie’s disease has been treated with some success by surgery.

People who operate vibrating machinery may also experience this problem.

People can control mild Raynaud’s disease by protecting their head, trunk, arms, and legs from cold. Secondary Raynaud’s disease is common among individuals systemic lupus erythematosus in tropical countries. Secondary Raynaud’s disease is the same as primary Raynaud’s disease, but occurs in individuals with a predisposing factor, usually a form of collagen vascular disease.

When you have primary or secondary Raynaud’s, cold temperatures or stressful emotions can trigger attacks. During these attacks, there is a brief lack of blood flow to the affected body part(s), and the skin can temporarily become white then bluish.

Biofeedback can also help to decrease the severity and frequency of RP in some patients.

Doctors may use a surgical procedure called a digital sympathectomy with adventitial stripping (which involves removing the tissue and nerves around the blood vessels supplying the affected digits).

Patients with persistent or bothersome symptoms may be helped by taking oral medications that open (dilate) blood vessels. These include calcium antagonists, such as diltiazem, nicardipine (Cardene), nifedipine (Procardia).

Medications to relax the walls of the blood vessels may be prescribed.

Causes of Crohn’s Disease

The common Causes of Crohn’s Disease :

People with a family history of ulcerative colitis (another inflammatory bowel disorder) also run a higher risk of getting the disease.

Stress is thought to exacerbate the illness which can affect any part of the digestive system, from the mouth to the anus.

Most recent research has concentrated on mycobacteria. A diet low in fibre and high in chemicals is also suspected to have a role in the illness.

Symptoms of Crohn’s Disease

Some Symptoms of Crohn’s Disease :

Crampy abdominal (belly area) pain

Persistent, watery diarrhea

Diarrhea.

Fever

Fatigue

Loss of appetite.

Treatment of Crohn’s Disease

Since there is frequently a bacterial infection along with Crohn’s disease, antibiotics are often used to treat this problem. Two that are commonly used are ciprofloxacin (trade name: Cipro) and metronidazole (trade name: Flagyl).

The anti-bacterial agent Metronidazole has been shown to be effective in treating lesions in the gut, but long-term use can lead to seizures.

Other drugs which can be effective include sulfaslazine, immunosuppressive drugs and corticosteroids.

Abdominal cramps and diarrhea may be helped by medications, which often lessen the inflammation in the colon. More serious cases may require steroid drugs, antibiotics, or drugs that affect the body’s immune system.

A small number of patients, who temporarily need extra nutrition, may need periods of feeding by vein (intravenously).

sulfasalazine (Azulfidine), Dipentum, Asacol, Rowasa, and Pentasa belong to a group of drugs called the 5-aminosalicylates. These drugs are most useful in maintaining a remission, once the disease is brought under control. They are most effective when the disease is present in the colon. These are available in oral and enema preparation.
