» Bad Breath, Eczema, Constipation and Irregular Menstrual Cycles
Bad Breath can be resolved quite simply and you just must change a few habits.
Most likely, the skin condition, bad breath and weight problem can and should
be addressed jointly.
Eczema is a kind of common allergic inflammatory dermatosis/skin. The causes of eczma are not specific they can be many and depend on what particular eczema type one has. It can be genetically linked (passed down through the family). If parents or grandparents of a child have eczema, there's an 80 percent chance that the child will develop eczema at some point in life. Different types of eczema can be caused by irritant chemicals and detergents, tobacco smoke, and yeast growths. Moreover eczema can also be caused by abnormal blood circulatory problems in the legs. The causes of some eczema types are unexplained, but environmental factors (cold, hot, humid conditions or dry ones) and stress are being linked.
Outbreaks can be triggered by dust mites, moulds, plant pollens, pets and any number of pollutants. It is important to avoid things to which the body has any sort of allergies. Stress can also make eczema outbreaks worse. Some foods are also suspected to trigger eczema like the dairy and wheat products, eggs, citrus fruits, nuts, preservatives, chemical food additives and colorings. It is advised not to wear synthetic fabrics or wool which irritate the skin and cause itch. Wear loose fitting, cotton clothes.
The constipation and digestive problems can be traced to varies of causes such as problem of digestive system, anemia, and stress, less exercises and so on. In your case you mentioned that you only exercise twice a week, this is not enough. You must start, to do some physical activity daily … it does not matter what; walk the dog, jog , go for a bike ride , go to gym … but you must keep your body moving. Think of river running…its vitality is because is in constant motion. Now think what happens with stagnated water. The human body is the same. The highest probability is indigestion and sorts of problems that can derive from inactivity. This is as important as to breaht and sleep. In your case you will quickly see the benefits. Teas are vital to a good digestive system. We highly recommend Chinese Teas. Try a diet of 4 to 6 cups a day between Puerh and Green Teas. I assure you after a month you will feel a great difference in your metabolism, bad breath and other digestive based problems.
Irregular menstrual cycle is defined as menses that does not appear every 28 days. (27-30 day cycles are not abnormal). The Traditional Chinese Medical Theory believes that cycles that start normal but become shorter (menses starts a week early) indicates either excessive Heat in the Blood or Qi Deficiency. Cycles that become longer apart (week late or becoming as much as 45 days apart) indicate Cold in the Blood, Blood deficiency or Qi Stagnation. Cycles that have no consistency, late one month early the next may be due to Qi Stagnation in the Liver or Kidney Deficiency.
It is important for your Traditional Chinese Medical Practitioner to determine which type of syndrome is the cause. There can be different causes of irregular cycles. Generally, acupuncture treatments and teas, herbal formulas can adjust an irregular cycle. Sometimes, herbal formulas will need to be taken for a couple of months to assure that normal cycling has returned. More important it is necessary for you to understand what to do in order not to get back out of balance and return to irregular cycles once her balance has been restored.
Your diet is another critical point in your present health. It seems to be too much based on grains and carbo hydrates. Please avoid for a few weeks the digestion of rolls and muffins wheat’s, breads , and pasta route and try some fibre based fruit and vegetables. Instead, when you feel like having something in your mouth please drink Teas are know to suppress hunger. Most importantly, you must jump start your body in the morning with fresh fruit and for lunch some sort of light soup or a salad for lunch. Spend time thinking of what do you feel better and let your body slowly chooses. Have a look in the Natural Diet in our site. Because of your allergies stop alldairy… including adding milk to teas and see how will your body react. Eat fresh vegetables if possible raw. They will help to clean your system and slowly will recycle the possible, rotten material that you have stored inside of you from eating unhealthy and not fresh food , specially fast food. The body have little resources to break down all the chemicals so the food stays inside your body … sometimes for years. This can cause all sorts of problems. You must address your whole dietary habits. Dietary Advice for Patient: should eat more apple, pear, spinach, Vitamin B. Should not eat ever: Cheese , and NEVER the fast foods , pickle roll, that are an attack in your liver. You must stop all snacks , instead drink Tea or have a fruit. Again out Teas are pure with excellent nutrients that just might make the difference. Let me give you one general advice for your future dietary habit; if you have to open a pack or a can to eat it don’t. Never use the micro wave.
At last there is a critical point in your diagnosis that you have already pointed
out; the lack of exercise. This is absolutely fundamental to normalise your
bodily functions and most of all the emotional balance that might be reflected
by the eruptions on the skin. This would be a quite common general symptom
of your present situation.
Exercise is simply absolutely essential to deal with your health …. You do not have to go to the gym everyday , but you must walk or slow jog every day , thy cycling , yoga … this will make a very significant change in your health. There is no drug or cure if you do not address this issue. Choose something pleasant and commit to the long term. This will help you lose weight.
Body and Mind work as One … and it is in this order …. The body first. Begin now as later. When you have other issues and menopause will be much more difficult. And you will also see an improvement in your joint pains and fatigue.
I must say that in Chinese Medicine, a healthy sexual life helps to balance the hormones and is seen something that should not be neglected at least until the menopause.
Also Chinese Teas are excellent to balance your over all health condition such as digestion, fatigue and other modern times symptoms. They can improve the circulation and have many nutrients that can be of assistance to you. You should try and see the effects. The Teas and Herbs can make a difference. In your case you should definitely try Oolong and Puerh teas , see the details in our web site, www.innteas.com. Remember , the Natural way is not a short term cure but a long time solution… one day at a time.
