MEN'S HEALTH in 2015
The biggest problem that men have are diseases that are the result of lack of health care monitoring earlier in life.
Though most of my articles are for ailments for men and women alike, most of the specific articles are usually directed towards women's issues. Yes, we have more health concerns then men, but the next series of articles on Men's Health
will be dedicated to male issues.
Ironically, though, out of the top ten causes of male deaths, only one is male organ specific: prostate cancer. The other nine are suffered by women as well, but happen less frequently to women than men.
The biggest problem that men have are diseases that are the result of lack of health care monitoring earlier in life. Take for example, the progression of heart disease: "If you don't get your cholesterol checked when it's going high when you're 20, and if don't get your blood pressure checked when it's going high when you're 30, maybe your blood sugar's getting a little high when you're 40, what do you think is going to happen when you're 50?"
We will begin to look at herbs for the top five killers of men: cardiac herbs (for hypertension and stroke), urinary tonics for the prostate, pulmonary herbs for the lungs and herbs for cancer, and depression.
Early last year I ran this series of articles on men's health in my herbal column, and thought you might benefit from that information! In my very first Newsletter (Sept. 3, 2014) I covered the topic of prostate problems, so I won't repeat it here. You can always pull that issue from the Archives.
Another of the 5 top killers of men: CANCER. It is very rare for cancer to have only one cause. Rather than simply being caused by a malfunction in your DNA, or a faulty gene you "inherited" from a grandparent, cancer is more typically triggered by a combination of things: nutritional deficiencies, toxins in your body/environment, emotional conflicts and hormonal imbalances. Most often cancer can actually be treated, and reversed, by addressing these variables through dietary changes, purifying your environment, and addressing your emotional state.
No one wants to battle cancer, and I believe you can VIRTUALLY ELIMINATE your risk of cancer and chronic disease (also see video in Dec 17th Issue by Dr. Afrika), and radically improve your chances of recovering from cancer if you currently have it, by following 12 relatively simple risk reduction strategies. 1. Reduce or eliminate your processed food, sugar and grain carbohydrate intake. Yes, this is even true for whole unprocessed organic grains, as they tend to rapidly break down and drive your insulin and leptin levels up, which is the last thing you need to have happening if you are seeking to resolve a cancer.
2. Control your fasting insulin and leptin levels. This is the end result, and can be easily monitored with the use of simple and relatively inexpensive blood tests.
Check my website for the full list of 12 cancer risk reduction strategies.
TO JUMPSTART YOUR DAILY ENERGY LEVEL and to automatically flush toxins from your system: drink a full glass of room temperature Alkaline water within 20min of waking and another glass within the next hour; another 5-6 glasses throughout the day.

HEALING with the ELEMENTS
FIRE: 3rd Element
(Heart/Small Intestines)
We suffer from so many illnesses because we lack understanding of our relationship to the universe and the elements that were created as guides for our health and healing.
The third element, FIRE, encompasses the heart and small intestines. The heart (where the soul takes shelter) is the root of life and generates all changes in spirit, and "opens" in the tongue.
This element represents the most Yang of all elements: energy, warmth and vitality. It is the most active, outward and "masculine" of energies, and relates to creativity, intuition and motion. The Fire Element carries out the "ideas" of the Wood Element. The function of the Fire Element is to provide overall harmony to our circulation and warmth; but not only to maintain heat but also to give warmth to others.
The HEART is our CENTER of CONSCIOUSNESS and also gives enthusiasm, vitaltiy and energy to others, and is associated with the emotions of joy and sadness. The condition of the heart may be read from a person's tongue and skin complextion. The Heart not only rules the blood but it also STORES THE SHEN (Spirit). When the heart's blood and chi are harmonious, Spirit is nourished; when the storing of blood is impaired, symptoms associated with the Shen manifest: insomnia, excessive dreaming, forgetfullness and extreme disorders, like hysteria, irrational behaviour, insanity and delirium. The small intestines receives the stomach contents and continues the job of separating and absorption. Its length and large surface area send the nutrients from what you eat directly into the blood supply. Disharmonies manifest as urinary and digestive disorders such as abdominal pain, internal rumblings, diarrhea or constipation.
Herbs to warm and tonify heart yang: Aconite, Cinnamon, Codonopsis, Hoelen, Hawthorne Berries and Marshmallow Root.
To reinforce heart chi and nourish heart yin: Rehmania, Tang Kuei/Dong Quai, Peony, Zizyphus seeds, and Schizandra.
For the small intestines: Golden Seal, Oregon Grape Root, Barberry Root, Plantain (seeds) and Black Haw.

HERB of the MONTH
ASTRAGALUS
Astragalus membranaceus
The astragalus root stands out as a unique remedy that is extremely useful in the treatment of physical exhaustion and physical weaknesses. In my compendium of (over 100 Ayurvedic, Western, Afrikan and Chinese herbs in my house) most frequently used Chinese herbs, astragalus treats "every sort of wasting or exhausting disease", and I find it useful whether for a tired mom recuperating after birth, an elder that needs to restore general health and strength, or a person recuperating after surgery or serious illness. I also use it in one of my tonic Longevity Formulas for optimum maintenance of general health.
 Anytime I use astragalus, I always use it along with Don Sen ~ these two herbs are inherent healing partners. Another pair of herbs I always use togher are: Bupleurum and Peony. As both pairs are excellent herbs for liver balance in ANY disease affected by the liver.
Astragalus is also used for the common cold, upper respiratory infections, allergies, fibromyalgia, anemia, HIV/AIDS and to strengthen and regulate the immune system. It is also used for chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), kidney disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure.
Some people use astragalus as a general tonic, to protect the liver, and to fight bacteria and viruses. Astragalus is commonly used in combination with other herbs. For example, in combination with Ligustrum lucidum (glossy privet), astragalus is used orally for treating breast cancer, cervical cancer, and lung cancer.
Astragalus is sometimes applied to the skin to increase blood flow to the area and to speed wound healing.
The astragalus root has been portrayed in the traditional Oriental medicine as a wonderful tonic for the "spleen" and "lung Chi."

Keeping a Health Womb
Many herbs can be used to stimulate and cleanse your uterus, improve its tone, shore-it-up for conceiving and to ease menstrual or menopausal symptoms. In the November 19th Newsletter we discussed what I consider a woman's Guardian Angel: Red Raspberry. There are, however, some herbs that boost uterine health that should not be taken when you are pregnant because some herbs can actually stimulate contractions.
Pregnancy is a very special period of a woman's life, and though herbs are basically safe with no side affects, during pregnancy many precautions should be taken while considering herbs for morning sickness, securing the fetus in the womb, easing childbirth and healing after birth. Even selecting herbs to facilitate nursing should be done with care. There are many herbs that harmonize our pregnancy experience from conception to birth and after, but should be done by someone with experience on herbal use. Hence, you should still consult your OB/GYN or physician before utilizing any uterus-supporting herbs, even if you have a medical condition or take medications.
A variety of herbs to help aid in rebuilding a malfunctioning reproductive system (uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, etc.), where women regularly experience painful periods, heavy flow, cramps, irregularity, etc., the herbs I would suggest are golden seal root, blessed thistle, cayenne, cramp bark, false unicorn root, ginger, red raspberry leaves, squaw vine, and uva ursi.
To restore prolapsed uterus (or other organ) and bring relief to the associated pain and discomfort, one could use white oak bark, mullein herb, yellow dock root, walnut bark, comfrey root, lobelia, and marshmallow root.
Other, individual uses of singular herbs:
Goldenseal: For prolapsed uterus and prolapsed rectum, a small injection of the infusion can give results.
Gravel Root: Gravel Root is said to help with problems in the genital tracts. When there is impotence, Gravel Root can help tone and heal the system. It controls chronic irritability of the womb and will help clear up atony of the womb. It can help prevent habitual abortion if it is due to a prolapsed, retroverted uterus or to debility resulting from chronic inflammation of the area.
Kelp: Kelp, as might be expected, is also of use in the female organs. It will help tone up a weak uterus and help produce a more healthy baby, as the balanced minerals will be supplied fully with the use of Kelp.
Squaw Vine: One of the best herbs to help assist in pregnancy and childbirth. Combined with red raspberry leaf tea, it is an excellent way to strengthen the uterus during pregnancy and facilitate an easy birth, it is especially useful taken several weeks before the baby is due.
Bayberry: Bayberry is reputed to positively influence the uterus and all the female functions. It is the one dependable herbal aid in uterine hemorrhages, whether due to abortion, miscarriage, or afterbirth. A weak tea may be used as a douche for amenorrhea or atonic leucorrhea, using the tea or the tincture internally as well. A douche similarly will help control vaginal discharge. Bayberry tea will strengthen and restore a prolapsed uterus, and will induce better contractions during childbirth. It will moderate the flow of lochia after birth.

Womb Purity Regimen
This regimen is designed for the individual needs of every woman. If your fibroid tumors/cysts are small and doesn't cause much (or any) discomfort, you may only need to take the tea regularly, to reduce them and keep them in check. If they are numerous and mildly discomforting, I'd suggest the Regular Strength Clay/Douche Combo. The larger they are in size and number, more chronic, recurring, painful and/or disruptive of your menses and lifestyle, you should use all three products to employ a more aggressive attack on the fibroids/tumors/cysts; here I would suggest the Advanced Strength.
Womb Purity Tea - 2oz ~ $12 
Womb Purity Clay/Douche Combo
Regular Strength - 8oz Jar ~ $39
Advanced Strength - 8oz Jar ~ $49
Womb Purity Douche - 2oz ~ $17
TESTIMONIAL: After my diagnosis of fibroids in 2012, and then being on the Womb Purity Formula for nearly a year, my symptoms have virtually disappeared to the degree that I was feeling soo good that I forgot my fibroids existed. I no longer have any uneasiness followed by regular Dr visits. It was virtually undetectable.
