Rediscovering Ancient Ayurvedic Massages

Ayurveda treatment

Ayurvedic massage gets its name from the "Ayurveda" . Ayurveda translates from Sanskrit " Science of Life": Ayur = Life, Veda = Science, and uses only natural products and plants.

There are different types of Ayurvedic massage " Abhyanga  or byanga"massage  with base oil all over the body, " Shirodhara " massage that pour a splash of oil on the forehead, or " Kansu " massage the soles of the feet with bowl.


Ayurvedic massage helps to harmonize the three constituent elements of being according to the principles of Ayurveda:

Vata (Air, energy of motion. Nervous and hormonal system), Pitta (Fire, energy transformation. Digestive system and enzymes), Kapha ( earth energy of cohesion. Fluids ).


This massage is a beautiful and effective support in cases of fatigue, insomnia, depression and ankylosis . Ayurvedic massage is individualized and tailored to the patient's constitution and his imbalances.


If the massage is not balanced and is inadequate, may aggravate the "dohas " ( main vital forces of the body ) and cause physical imbalances and emotionals. The main objective of Ayurvedic massage is to restore balance to the body and maintain health and combat physical and mental stress so therefore it takes into account the vital points on the body called marmas.


Ayurvedic massage gives us many benefits: Since generate us positive emotions and relieve us from stress until to act on the circulatory, lymphatic, and nervous energy system. It is also one of the most effective methods to combat aging skin, nourishing and purifying at the cellular level.


Recently the scientists have discovered that Ayurvedic massage reduces the activity of free radicals, one of the triggering factors of cellular aging, cancer and heart disease.


Here are just some of the benefits provided by this technique of massage :

• Comprehensive harmonization of the person.

• Spiritual development

• Improvement of vision, body posture and bone structure.

• Increase resistance to diseases.

• Delay aging.

• Improvement of energy flow.

• Harmonization of the lymphatic system and blood.

• Muscle Flexibility.

• Elimination of toxins

• Improvement of the nervous system.

• Elimination of fatigue.

• Relaxation

Tomato Juice Health Benefitts

Tomato juice benefits

Tomato juice is a beverage that contains the nutrients required by our body. It also has a unique flavor and is refreshing.

Tomato nutritional properties
Among the nutritional value of tomato juice one of the most important is that it contains lycopene, a substance with anti-cancer and the disease preventive properties. The best way to take this drink for that nutrient is preparing the juice with fresh tomatoes.


Another significant element is the nutritional calories that tomato juice provides. Per 180 ml  we drink, we are incorporating 31 calories. In turn, the consumption of saturated and polyunsaturated fats is zero and the total fat is minimum, important data for diets to lose weight.


Tomato juice is an essential source of vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin A and C, responsible for combating free radicals and the process of cell oxidation . It also contains vitamin K, vitamin B complex, high amounts of iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium and phosphorus.


To the being rich in fiber helps to reduce the bad cholesterol in the body. But also contain niacin, an important cholesterol regulator . It is highly advisable then drink regularly a tasty glass of juice.


Benefits of drinking tomato Juice
Drink tomato juice provides us with the following benefits:

* Heart: people with heart problems should drink tomato juice frequently. It is also recommended to prevent heart attacks and other heart disorders in healthy people.


* Blood Pressure: tomato juice helps to significantly reduce blood pressure in the body, due to the potassium it contains.


* Skin Care : Another of the benefits of tomato juice is favoring skin care, as we rid of acne, pimples and other types of infections skin.


* It's great to keep the skin clean and moisturized.


* Alcoholism : Drink tomato juice can be very beneficial for people that suffering from alcoholism, because helping to counteract the effects of a hangover.


* Arthritis: because its  high content in vitamin C, consuming fresh tomato juice strong the immune system and the body is more prepared for combating the inflammation of arthritis and pain that accompany this illness.

Walking Barefoot Really Health Beneficial

Multiple benefits of walking barefoot - (continuation)

The most scientists that working in this area now believe that the beneficial effects are mediated through the reduction of inflammation and thinning of the blood.

In fact the effect of blood thinning is so deep that if you are taking medication to thin the blood would be advisable to consult your doctor immediately because probably your medicine will have to be decreased.


Two ways that will guarantee to keep in touch with the earth
The effects of contact with the earth seem so profound that researchers recommended that doctors prescribe sessions with bare feet as the temperature permits.


This is so simple as it sounds; take off your shoes and socks and walk barefoot on the grass, the dust, sand or whatever.


Studies suggest that the benefits such as pain relief and decrease stress may occur in only 30 to 80 minutes of walking barefoot at any time of day.


This obviously could be a problem during the winter or if you live in an urban area without easy access to parks or other surface where you can walk barefoot ,so the other option would be to use pillows earthing or grounding that allowing you to obtain the benefits of electrons from the ground despite being indoors, especially while you are asleep.


I have been using a pillow for months, especially when I have to travel and suspected that the air on planes cause weakening of the bio- electric currents.

So, as the access to regular sun exposure, walking barefoot outside the home is an extremely sloppy practice that can be corrected easily. In the Journal of Environmental and Public Health, the researchers concluded that :

A new evidence shows that the contact with the ground, either inside or outside the home, connecting the earth conductor systems, this could be an effective and simple but  profound strategy against chronic stress, dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system, inflammation, pain, insomnia, disorders with changes in your heart rate, hyper coagulated blood and many other health problems, including cardiovascular disease.


The research carried out to date supports the notion that the concept of earthing or grounding ( ground contact ) could be an essential element in the health equation  along with the sun, fresh air and water, nutritious food and physical activity.

Walking Barefoot Is Beneficial For Health

Significant benefits of walking barefoot - (continuation)

What happens when we absorb free electrons from the earth?
The scientific theory behind the health benefits seen by this simple practice is that because the earth has one more negative charge that your body, you end up absorbing electrons.

This well established,although not well known understanding that the surface of the earth has a constant and unlimited supply of free electrons as consequence of a global atmospheric electric circuit.


The shoes with insulating soles and / or sleep in beds that are isolated from the electrical surface of the earth, has caused that many people are disconnected from the electrical rhythms of the earth and the free electrons.


A recent article demonstrated that connect the body to the earth during sleep ( earthing ) normalizes the daily cortisol rhythm and improves sleep. A variety of other benefits were reported, including a decrease in pain and inflammation.


Subsequent studies have confirmed these findings and have documented past clinical and psychological effects almost immediately after your body has had contact with the ground.


For simplicity, it is believed that the flow of free electrons from the surface of the earth help neutralize free radicals and thus reduce chronic inflammation and acute, which is the root of many health conditions and accelerated aging.


The review of research shows significant benefits of Earthing.
In a new article published in the Journal of Environmental and Public Health , researchers conducted the research process of Earthing, which revealed an impressive impact on various health conditions.


Most of the studies included methods of internal tests that simulated being barefoot outside. It was found that this help to improve the following conditions:


The researchers wrote that, another invaluable benefit is that when your body touches the ground, the electric potential regulates by the electric potential of the earth through a transfer of electrons going from the earth to your body.


This in turn provides protection against electromagnetic fields that are ubiquitous in the environment.

The study performed by Richard Feynman who won the Nobel Prize for his conference in electromagnetism, confirm that the effect of  protection by the contac of your body with the earth.


Feynman said that when the potential of your body is the same as the electric potential of the earth, it becomes an extension of the giant electrical system of the earth. Then the potential of the earth becomes in the functional agent that reduces and removes  or sets aside the electrical fields of your body.

Walking Barefoot Is Essential For Health

Benefits of walking barefoot

When was the last time you took off your shoes and enjoy feel the earth beneath your feet?. Maybe it's hard to believe, but commit to this simple pleasure could give to your health the momentum you much-need.

In some cases engage in activities that make you feel good on an intrinsic level is actually good for your health such as feeling the rays of the sun warming your skin.


Another case is walking barefoot outside with the soles of the feet free to touch the ground - it is an activity called Grounding or Earthing.

We are electrical beings
You are an electrical being, and the surface of the earth is electrically conductive.

You are an electrical being, your body regularly produces positive charges that can oxidize or damage it in case of excess.

The land surface is electronically conductive, maintains a negative charge with a free supply of electrons that continuously is loaded by the global atmospheric electric circuit.


It has been established, although is not a widely appreciated fact that the surface of the earth has an unlimited supply and continually renewed of free electrons.


There is much evidence that suggests that the potential of the earth can create a stable internal bioelectrical environment for normal functioning of all body systems.


Moreover, the oscillations of the intensity of the potential of the earth can be very important to establish the biological clock that regulates diurnal body rhythms, such as the secretion of cortisol.


Connection to the earth surface
There is also growing research that shows that this connection to the earth surface plays a vital role in preventing diseases and also offers a variety of benefits, from improved sleep to pain relief .



The problem is, that while humans have historically spent much of their time naked on earth (both walking and sleeping, sheltered by animal skins, which allow them electrons into their bodies ), today this vital connection has been lost.


Through history, humans have walked barefoot or with shoes made of animal skins. Slept on the floor or on the skins.

Through direct contact or through perspiration dampening the skins of animals used for footwear or mats for sleeping, the abundant free electrons from the earth were able to enter into the body, which is electrically conductive.


Electric potential of the earth
Through this mechanism, each part of your body could be balanced by the electric potential of the earth, so stabilizing the electrical environment of all organs, tissues and cells. The modern lifestyle has drastically separate humans from the primary flow of electrons from the earth.


For example, since the 60s, we used the insulating rubber or plastic shoe soles and instead of traditional animal skin; obviously no longer sleep on the floor as we used to do in the past.

Diet, Weight Loss And Physical Activity

Physical activity and diet

Physical activity is an important tool for the Doctor who advises and for anyone who wants to reduce the body weight.

It has been shown by various investigations, that doing exercise at low or moderate intensity, consume a greater proportion of fat and is better for weight and body composition, preserving or increasing slightly the lean mass or muscular.


Only with the exercise is expected a  very slow weight loss rate, this does not mean that people who want to control their weight should stop exercising , what this means is that simply reducing caloric intake can cause weight loss body much more than exercise, but will be much more effective if we combine the two ,diet and exercise, as demonstrated by several studies.


People the more exercise, will  be in better physical shape and better physical exercise capacity is more effective for burning calories.


The exercise helps to maintain better compliance and nutritional treatment according to several studies, individuals that better able to maintain the weight lost in the long run, they had incorporated regular exercise to their lifestyles.

It is also shown that, after exercise, fat metabolism is increased so that once the session is complete, the body tends to burn more calories, preferably from body fat, even in rest.

The exercise can help to alter the body weight, its composition and basal metabolism, but can also positively affect our health, increasing self-esteem and motivation, reducing anxiety , depression and stress.


Type of physical activity to weight loss
 Is called aerobic exercise the activity whose realization demands continuous oxygen to the body so that the muscle use as fuel mainly our fat reserves.

Aerobic exercises are those dynamic exercises that involve large muscle groups with a long period of work and a moderate intensity.


Exercise and physical activity
There is no perfect exercise to prescribe it to the general population but for this task it is necessary to make a choice based on personal preferences and the availability of means. Some examples are walking, brisk walking , aerobics, cycling, skiing, swimming, dancing.


Frequency of physical activity
The general guidelines for aerobic exercise, is to work with a frequency of 3-5 days per week for 15-60 minutes per session, at an intensity appropriate work to individual capabilities.It is also commonly accepted 150 minutes per week or 30 minutes per day.


In the progression of the program, it should be noted that before increasing exercise intensity, should be increased the duration, which is appropriate for the stage of initiation does not exceed 12-15 minutes per session.


Aerobic exercise intensity
The intensity of aerobic exercise is usually measured relating to the maximum volume of oxygen consumed by the body, as this measure is difficult to establish, is much more common measure such intensity from the number of heartbeats per minute.

 It is generally accepted that the maximum number of beats per minute that supports a healthy heart is about " 220 - age ".

Consider a mild to moderate aerobic exercise performed with an average of between 60% -75 % of maximum heart rate. Any exercise that involving pulse rate above 85 % does not burn fat, but the carbohydrates reserves that are very limited, and is considered anaerobic exercise.


For the prescription of exercise be appropriate, it is advisable to get a medical evaluation beforehand to provide us with data on situations that may pose a risk during the practice exercise.

Decontaminates Your Diet And Your Body

Detoxifying diet

Then we give you tips on what products to incorporate in your diet to decontaminate it and you can enjoy of better health naturally.

Consume organic products. This change can benefit quickly, according to a study by Emory University in Atlanta.


Researchers monitored the urine of subjects that consumed alternatively conventional and organic foods for several days each one. The concentrations of two widely used pesticides dropped to undetectable levels in the organic phase, but returned once conventional foods were reintroduced.



Minimize the caffeine consumption opting for herbal tea or coffee replacers . Beets are an excellent source of phytonutrient called betaine, which helps detoxification of the intestines, blood and liver, and may protect against the harmful effects of alcohol. Beets also provide antioxidant protection.


Cruciferous vegetables like Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, cabbage and broccoli, contain glucosinolates, which helps detoxify the liver of products chemicals, drugs and pollutants.


The raisins have inulin, a compound that reduces the load on the liver to stimulate the kidneys and cleansing toxins in the intestine. Oats, apples, pears, strawberries, peas and beans provide soluble fiber to absorb toxins in the intestines and escort them out of the body.


Asparagus, avocados, potatoes ( boiled with skin), raw spinach , and nuts are notable sources of glutathione, an essential compound that helps in removing fat soluble toxins. Spinach, broccoli, peas, tomatoes, potatoes and Brussels sprouts provide substantial amounts of alpha -lipoic acid, a powerful antioxidant that destroys free radicals, which are byproducts of the detoxification process.


Beans, onion, garlic, red pepper, broccoli and Brussels sprouts contain sulfur compounds that help cleanse the body of disposable neurotransmitters, drugs and hormones.

Natural colon cleansing diet

Your colon cleansing can be in minutes. There are lots of methods and some of them may even be in your refrigerator right now. If you read on, you will be closer to that feeling of detoxification.

* Eat more fiber.
Think of it like a broom that sweeps everything in your digestive system - Fiber is one nutrient that is not digested and helps cleanse the intestines. In short, more fiber = more empty colon.


Flax seeds and oats are super sources of fiber, both soluble and insoluble type. Fruits, ie strawberries and apples, vegetables , whole grains and beans are also good sources after all.


Aim for about 20 to 35 grams of fiber a day. You will need your fruit and vegetable intake significantly ( 5 servings a day) and whole grains pack (which comes in 6 ) , but the good news is that these things are delicious, healthy and help you lose weight too.


*  Drink plenty of refreshing water,running water.
 This liquid will do everything in your body to function better. Instead of drinking 8 glasses of eight ounces of water, look at the color of your urine. If it's clear or almost clear yellow, means that is doing a great job, and if it is darker than that, start drinking more !


Alcohol and caffeinated drinks do not count to the total fluid intake; only dehydrate you. For this and other reasons ( empty calories , etc), it is just avoid them.Drinking more can help to relieve constipation, too.


*  Eat more fermented foods.
Amazing right? But not,there are bacteria in fermented foods that are very, very good for you and your colon. Without them, certain nutrients go wrong, the toxins do not degrade, and microorganisms that cause disease can make a home in your digestive system.


Basically, they give to the cells in the colon the energy to do their job.The yogurt , miso , kimchi , and sauerkraut are four examples of fermented foods.


* Kefir and Kombucha tea.
provide good things through the drink,also Sancoche ,Green Broccoli Paso in your diet, at least. Not only gives chlorophyll its green color, but also clean and soften the tissue of the digestive tract.


In addition to providing fiber, vegetables can repair intestines.The lucerne plant, wheat grass, brussels sprouts, spinach , peas and barleygrass are good sources of chlorophyll, also liquid chlorophyll. Through lifestyle changes can also help cleanse the colon.


 
* Do more physically active.
A low amount of physical activity is a common cause of constipation. Doctors are still not sure why . But blame as the cause of illness in the elderly people.
Just go for a walk every day that counts for physical activity. Also take a trip to the gym is out of the question, the goal is to be more active at home and take the smaller opportunities to burning one calorie here and there.

The Hoax Of Modern Medicine You Should Know

Modern medicine and traditional medicine

The hoax of modern medicine : Seven facts you need to know
Increasingly it seems that the only real disease is believing in pharmaceutical medicine. It's like a kind of madness.

Think that a synthetic chemical product can solve all  problems and put your life in perfect order as those actors that shown in television advertisements for
pharmaceuticals.


When it comes to health, our modern world has lost its mind, and the so called science backing it has lost all touch with scientific reality. the modern medicine is a hoax.


Science has been abandoned for marketing. The security has been thrown out the window and has been replaced with potential gains - earnings that going to the coffers of the elite.


Here are the  facts that you must remember about all we are seeing today in modern medicine:

Factor 1 : 90 percent of all diseases;Cancer, diabetes, depression, heart diseases , etc,  are easily preventable through diet, nutrition, sunlight and exercise. None of these solutions are promoted because they do not generate any money.


Factor 2: Almost all consumption of pharmaceuticals today is a direct result of the marketing to the public and secretly bribing doctors to write more prescriptions. There is very little drug consumption based on scientific merit.


Factor 3: There are not pharmaceuticals actually that cure or resolve the underlying causes of the disease. Even " successful" drugs onlycontrolling the symptoms, usually at the expense of interfering with other physiological functions which cause side effects in the process. There is no such thing as a drug without side effects.


Factor 4 : There is no financial incentive for anyone in the current medical system ( pharmaceutical companies , hospitals , doctors, etc. . ) to make that  people are really well. The benefits are in continuous illness, not wellness or prevention.


Factor 5: Practically all " prevention " programs that we see today ( such as free mammograms or other screening programs ) are little more than plans cleverly  disguised  for recruiting patients.


The use free detection to scare people into accepting unnecessary and often expensive treatments that enrich the pharmaceutical companies. The breast cancer mammography is a complete scam : The machines actually cause cancer !


Factor 6: Doctors do not know almost nothing about nutrition and still not teaching them nutrition at schools of medicine. Expecting a doctor to teach you about how to prevent the disease is expecting something like an auto mechanic that show you how to perform a brain surgery.


Although there are some exceptions; doctors who themselves have learned nutrition , the majority of doctors remain nutritionally illiterate because they do not have familiarity with natural plant -based medicines found in fruits and vegetables.
