Have you ever heard someone say, "I can't believe how he suddenly has liver cancer. He seems so healthy all these while." or "I'm so shocked to hear she has breast cancer. I just saw her the other day and she looked fine." Diseases, especially cancer, never happens suddenly . There is usually much abuse we have put our body through for cancer to finally occur. Orthopathic proponents say there are 7 Stages of Disease our body goes through before arriving at the point of no return. The earlier we become aware of these warning signals and the faster we take action to address them, the better we can maintain our health. What are these 7 Stages of Disease? Stage 1 - Enervation Stage 2 - Toxemia Stage 3 - Irritation Stage 4 - Inflammation Stage 5 - Ulceration Stage 6 - Induration Stage 7 - Fungation (Cancer) Stage 1 - Enervation Enervation is depletion of energy. It is when not enough energy comes in, and too much energy goes out. Energy is the essence of life. ...

As men pass 40 years of age, there's a tendency for their prostate gland to enlarge - a condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). It's extremely common, and something you have to live with forever if it's mild. The prostate gland is about the size of a walnut. It's situated just below the bladder , and goes around the urethra (the tube that carries your urine from the bladder out). What are the functions of prostate? 1) It makes a type of fluid that helps nourish the sperm, comprises 20% to 30% of the semen, and is alkaline (to neutralise the acidity of the vagina). 2) It contains smooth muscles to help expel the semen during ejaculation. Why does the prostate gland enlarge when men get older? What happens when a man age is that multiple nodules made out of fibre and soft tissue start to grow in the prostate gland, making the canal of the urethra grow progressively smaller. This is stimulated by testosterone. The urine flow then slowly becomes obstructed, an...

Eczema is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the skin that receives a fair amount of media coverage, yet there's still a lot of misconception. For instance, people blame food as the cause of itchy skin. Food allergies can coexist in someone with eczema, but it doesn't mean food is the cause of eczema. Eczema gives rise to intense discomfort, making the skin red, inflamed, dry, flaky and very itchy. Scratching damages the skin, allows penetration and colonisation of bacteria on the outer layer of the skin, making it sensitive to chemical impact and allergens. The secretion of bacteria on the skin can further add to the pain that results in further swelling, intense itching and infection. Eczema has a genetic dimension to it - if a parent has it, chances are high the child will also have it. A conventional way to manage eczema is using  topical steroid cream. A paediatric dermatologist from the Kuala Lumpur General Hospital cautions that people should not self-medicate on ste...

The majority of the 25 million people with diabetes in the United States treat their condition with oral medications. Oral drugs are usually used to help people with type 2 diabetes make better use of the insulin their bodies still produce. People with type 2 diabetes make up about 95 percent of diabetes cases. Taking medication to treat type 2 diabetes comes with a particular set of serious side effects. The different drugs work by affecting the liver, pancreas or stomach in some way. Just about all of these drugs come with the danger of hypoglycemia — excessively low blood sugar. If the pills are taken in higher amounts than they should be, or used without food, they can be dangerous. The most extreme cases of hypoglycemia will cause convulsions, coma and hypothermia. Hypoglycemia is the possible side effect shared by just about every diabetes drug. Depending on the way drugs work on the body, they usually have their own set of specific side effects. Details on individual drug warnin...

Nowadays, it's quite common to hear of friends suspecting they (or their children) may be lactose intolerance when they get an upset stomach after taking cheese, milk or other dairy products. This article sheds some light on what is lactose intolerance all about and suggests a very simple, effective solution should you really be unable to tolerate lactose. What is lactose intolerance?   Lactose is a type of sugar that is normally found in milk and related products. Lactose intolerance occurs when a person is unable, or has insufficient ability, to digest this sugar. What causes lactose intolerance? It is caused by the lack of an enzyme called lactase. Lactase breaks lactose down into glucose and galactose, 2 simpler forms of sugar which are then easily absorbed into our bloodstream. This condition is referred to as lactase deficiency . What else causes lactose intolerance? Some people's immune system may develop some form of reaction to cow milk protein, resulting in their inab...
