Causes, Symptoms and Treatment of Monkeypox Virus

 

Causes, Symptoms and Treatment of Monkeypox Virus

Mpox virus infection

Mpox, formerly known as monkeypox, is a virus that primarily causes a rash illness in humans and some animals. It belongs to the orthopoxvirus family, which also includes variola, the virus responsible for smallpox.

Transmission

Human-to-human transmission of mpox is possible, but it occurs less commonly than smallpox. Mpox can be transmitted through:

1. Direct contact with an infected person's rash, scabs, vesicles, or body fluids.

2. Respiratory droplets generated when an infected person talks, coughs, or sneezes.

3. Touching objects, fabrics, or surfaces contaminated with the virus, such as bedding or clothing.

4. Consuming contaminated food or beverages.

Symptoms of mpox 

The incubation period for mpox ranges from 5 to 21 days. The symptoms include:

 

1. Flu-like symptoms: fever, headache, muscle aches, and exhaustion.

2. Swollen lymph nodes

3. A rash that often begins on the face, moves to the hands and feet, and can spread to other parts of the body, including the soles of the feet and palms of the hands.

4. Rashes can be painful or itchy and may turn into blisters or scabs.

Treatment of mpox 

Currently, there is no specific anticoronavirus treatment for mpox, but supportive care, including pain management and fluid therapy, can help alleviate symptoms. Antiviral medications, such as cidofovir and tecovirimat (ST-246), can be prescribed to individuals with severe illness or those at higher risk of complications.

Yoga treatment of mpox virus

Molluscum contagiosum (MC) or mpox, is a viral disease that causes skin rashes and lumps. It is caused by the molluscum contagiosum virus (MCV). While there are no known yogic practices specifically targeted at treating mpox, yoga can be incorporated into a holistic approach to support the body, increase immunity, and promote overall health.

Here are a few yoga practices that may support the body during an mpox virus infection---

1. Practice mindfulness meditation

 Meditation can help you manage stress and anxiety while also promoting relaxation. A calm state of mind supports a healthy immune system.

2. Perform gentle poses and stretches

 Engage in gentle yoga poses and sections of yoga sequences like the sun salutation that do not strain the skin or expose infected areas to potential further spreading. 

3. Incorporate pranayama (breath control)

 Breathing exercises such as diaphragmatic breathing can help reduce stress and improve respiratory function, which can be beneficial in boosting immunity.

4. Focus on a balanced diet

As with any viral infection, maintaining a balanced diet and staying hydrated is important. A healthy diet will provide the body with the nutrients necessary to support the immune system.

5. Encourage overall immune health

 Practicing yoga consistently can improve overall immune health due to the mind-body connection it promotes.

As always, it is vital to consult with a medical professional before making any changes to your treatment plan.

In addition to these yoga practices, standard mpox treatment typically involves keeping the lesions clean and avoiding spreading the virus. This may include over-the-counter creams or ointments and, in severe cases, prescription medications.

If you're concerned or have specific questions about including yoga in your treatment plan, it's best to consult with a medical professional and a trained yoga instructor.

Prevention

Vaccination against mpox, known as the ACAM2000 vaccine, helps protect individuals from the disease. Post-exposure prophylaxis with smallpox vaccine or other antiviral medications can reduce the risk of developing mpox when exposure is suspected. Practicing proper hand hygiene, avoiding close contact with infected individuals, and safely handling and cooking meat are also important preventive measures.

Causes, symptoms and treatment of mental illness

Symptoms of mental disorder

Mental disorders are identified by specific symptoms that affect a person's emotions, mood, thoughts, and behaviors. Symptoms can vary depending on the type of mental disorder and may range in severity. Here is a general list of common symptoms that may indicate a mental disorder---

1. Mood changes

Unexplained swings in mood, feeling unhappy, sad, anxious, or irritable almost all the time.

2. Persistent sadness or hopelessness

 Experiencing persistent feelings of despair or loss of interest in activities that were once enjoyable.

3. Irritability or anxiousness

 Feeling easily agitated or on-edge, or frequently experiencing irritability.

4. Difficulty sleeping or sleeping too much

 Struggling with sleep disturbances such as insomnia or oversleeping.

5. Lack of energy or tiredness

 Feeling lethargic and drained most of the time.

6. Changes in appetite

Experiencing a significant increase or decrease in appetite, leading to weight gain or loss.

7. Self-destructive behavior

Engaging in activities that can harm oneself, such as drug abuse, alcoholism, or self-mutilation.

8. Trouble concentrating or making decisions

Difficulty focusing on tasks or making everyday decisions.

9. Withdrawal from activities and relationships

Avoiding social activities or friends due to a lack of interest or feeling disconnected from others.

10. Paranoid or suspicious thoughts

 Experiencing unfounded suspicions or believing that others are out to harm you.

11. Hallucinations

Hearing, seeing, or feeling things that aren't real.

12. Suicidal thoughts or actions

Having thoughts of suicide or engaging in suicidal behavior.

It's essential to note that these symptoms can vary and are not indicative of every mental disorder. They are only a general list, and it's always best to consult a healthcare professional if you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms. They can help determine the appropriate diagnosis and treatment plan.

Causes of mental disorder

Mental disorders can result from a combination of biological, psychological, and environmental factors. Here are some of the main causes of mental disorders----

1. Genetics

 Studies have shown that mental disorders have a genetic component. Certain genes can make an individual more susceptible to developing mental health issues.

2. Brain chemistry

Imbalances in brain chemicals like neurotransmitters (serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine) can play a role in the development of mental disorders. Imbalances can result from a variety of factors, including genetics.

3. Stress

 Chronic stress or traumatic events can put a strain on the body and mind, potentially leading to the development of mental health issues.

4. Childhood trauma

 Experiencing traumatic events in childhood, such as abuse or neglect, can increase the risk of developing mental disorders later in life.

5. Family issues

 Conflict, lack of emotional support, or dysfunction within a family can contribute to mental health problems.

6. Social factors

Poverty, unemployment, social isolation, and marginalization can increase the risk of developing mental health issues.

7. Substance abuse

 The use of alcohol, drugs, or other substances can lead to mental health problems, as they can alter brain chemistry and cause long-term damage.

8. Lifestyle factors

 Poor diet, lack of exercise, and inadequate sleep can negatively impact mental health and contribute to the development of mental disorders.

9. Medical conditions

 Physical illnesses, infections, and injuries can sometimes contribute to the development of mental disorders.

10. Cultural factors

Cultural beliefs, attitudes, and experiences can impact an individual's mental health and contribute to the development of mental disorders.

It is essential to note that mental health issues can result from a variety of factors, and an individual's unique combination of risk factors can vary. Additionally, mental disorders can often develop due to a combination of these factors, rather than a single cause.

Yoga treatment of mental disorder

Yoga is a holistic practice that combines physical postures, breathing techniques, meditation, and mental focus to promote physical, mental and spiritual well-being. In recent years, there has been growing interest in the use of yoga as a complementary therapy for mental disorders, due to its potential benefits in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, and improving overall well-being.

Several mental disorders can potentially benefit from a yoga treatment. Some of these include---

1. Anxiety disorders

 Practicing yoga can help reduce anxiety symptoms by enhancing relaxation, mindfulness, and self-awareness. Some studies have shown that yogic practices can be as effective as medication in treating anxiety.

2. Depression

 Yoga has been found to improve mood, self-esteem, and overall quality of life in individuals suffering from depression. It can enhance the production of endorphins and serotonin, which can help reduce symptoms of depression.

3. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

 Yoga has been found to be helpful in reducing symptoms of PTSD by promoting relaxation, increased awareness, and emotional regulation.

4. Substance abuse

 Yoga can help individuals in recovery from substance abuse by promoting mindfulness, reducing stress, and fostering a sense of inner peace.

5. Schizophrenia

 Some studies have found that yoga can help improve positive symptoms like cognition, social functioning, and quality of life in individuals with schizophrenia.

6. Bipolar disorder

Yoga can help in managing symptoms of bipolar disorder by promoting relaxation, improving mood, and reducing anxiety.

It's essential to note that yoga should be considered as a complementary treatment rather than a standalone treatment for mental disorders. It is best to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating yoga as a part of the treatment plan. Additionally, it's crucial to work with a certified yoga instructor who is experienced in working with individuals with mental health conditions.

 conclusion

 yoga is a gentle and holistic approach to treating mental disorders. By promoting relaxation, mindfulness, self-awareness, and emotional regulation, yoga can be a valuable tool in managing symptoms and improving overall well-being. However, it is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional before incorporating yoga into the treatment plan.

The science of pranayama procedure and benefits

 My dear friends today I told you about procedure, benefits and precautions of pranayama .If you want to live, learn Pranayam too.

Practice of PranaYam is said to be the best way to attain the highest state of health. It is a unique means of strengthening our life by uniting it with nature.

We all know that air is our life. A man can survive for some time without food and water, but without breathing, he cannot live for more than a few minutes. When we breathe, the air passes through our nostrils into the windpipe and from there into the lungs. The oxygen present in this air is the basis of our life and life. If there is no oxygen in the air, our life will end. Any object burns only when it is combined with oxygen and life is the name of burning slowly.

All the fibers of our body gradually come in contact with oxygen, due to which many tissues keep burning and getting destroyed continuously. Their destruction is good for us.  Heat is generated in the body due to this burning and the body temperature is maintained.

Diseases like cold, cough, pneumonia, pleurisy, influenza, nose diseases, throat diseases, voice box diseases and tuberculosis etc. arise due to disturbance in breathing process. A person who does pranayam makes his respiratory organs strong due to which these diseases do not come to him.

Benefits of Pranayama

(1) The lungs become strong.

(2) Their flexibility increases.

(3) More heat increases in the body, which benefits the body.

(4) More and more oxygen reaches the lungs and from there to the whole body.

(5) The more oxygen goes in, the more carbon dioxide also goes out. This removes the dirt from the body quickly and the body becomes clean, pure and disease-free. The wear and tear of the body's cells due to excessive physical exertion, the chemical changes that occur, are compensated by the large amount of oxygen taken through Pranayama.

(6) Pranayama also has an interesting effect on the inner nervous system of the brain. The brain becomes sharp by becoming pure. Brain disorders are cured.  Many dormant powers of the brain are awakened.

(7) Pranayama develops the pituitary gland and pineal gland.

(8) Apart from respiratory organs, Pranayama also cures ear, tongue, eye and throat diseases.

(6) The air we inhale contains 21% oxygen. The air we exhale contains 16% oxygen. This shows that in every breath we are able to expend only five percent oxygen for the body. More oxygen can be supplied to the body through the actions of Pranayama.

(10) Pranayama supplies blood to the brain. Due to this, the brain becomes inactive for a while and it gets rest and leisure.

(11) Pranayam helps in gaining control over the nervous system. Basically, pranayam prevents nervous symptoms and diseases.

(12) Pranayam can be done only when the mental disorders are removed. In this way, the person doing pranayam is successful in removing his mental disorders as well.

(13) Pranayam can be done only by those who do not consume tobacco and alcohol. Pranayam does not give any benefit without completely giving up cigarettes, bidis, alcohol etc.

Pranayam is scientifically proven

People influenced by western culture used to consider pranayam as a baseless imagination, but it has been proved by scientific tests that 'pranayam' is the best method for maintaining health and preventing diseases.

Why is pranayam necessary?

 Saint-Shiromani Maa Yog Shakti has rightly written in her book 'ShratmaVidya' - "Pranayama is a kind of exercise of respiratory activities, therefore Pranayama should be done in clean air in the morning. Nowadays in the machine-filled industrial world, most of the people do not get clean air. People's lives have become busy and artificial. Most of the people are always in a hurry and nervous. This has a bad effect on the heart and lungs. We are never able to take a deep and full breath while being in the midst of work. Breathing is often incomplete and hurried. Some people are in a hurry to go to office, some are in a hurry to catch a bus, some are in a hurry to go to school. In a way, everyone lives a life of fear, nervousness and mental stress. Often a person has to do many such works in which he has to remain bent for many hours. Bending forward puts pressure on the lungs. The lungs are not able to expand and contract completely. Doing such work for a long time causes weakness in the lungs.  Digestive power also starts to weaken. Therefore, you will see that pranayama is not only beneficial for everyone, but is also necessary.

Where to do Pranayama?

Pranayama should be done in pure air only. Pranayama should not be done in a place polluted by dust, smoke, dirt, foul smell etc. Forest, garden, river, lawn, clean room, roof of a house etc. are best for Pranayama. Pranayama should not be done where there is strong wind, storm, thunderstorm etc. Pranayama should be done in a clean room; but bright windows etc. should be open. Pranayama should be done on the ground, on a stool or on a wooden board; not while sitting on a cot, bed or chair. The place for Pranayama should be quiet and secluded.

When to do Pranayama?

The best time for this is morning. After defecation, cleaning and bathing, wear loose clothes and spread a Kusha mat or blanket or mat. Pranayama should be done while sitting in Padmasana, Siddhasana or Sukha-Sana.  While sitting, the spine should be completely straight. Pranayama should be done only after concentrating the mind.

How to do Pranayama?

While doing Pranayama, keep the eyes completely closed; do not clench them. Keep the right hand free to hold the nose; the left hand should be above the knee. The palm should be upwards (towards the sky). In the beginning of Pranayama, it is necessary to hold the nose. This work has to be done with the right hand. If the left nostril has to be closed, it should be done with the ring finger of the right hand (the finger next to the smallest finger). If the right nostril has to be closed, it should be closed by pressing with the thumb of the left hand. If both the nostrils have to be closed, they should be closed by pressing with the ring finger and thumb. In all these situations, keep the index finger and middle (middle) fingers closed, as in a fist.  The smallest finger should remain open. After some time (i.e. after practising for a month or two) there is no need to hold the nose. Then

both hands should remain comfortably on the thighs or knees. The palms should be facing upwards (sky).

Shrasana

For Pranayama, (1) Padmasana, (2) Siddhasana, (3) Sukhasana are considered suitable.

(1) Padmasana

Sit down. Raise the right leg and place it on the left thigh. Raise the left leg and place it on the right thigh. The spine should be straight (there should be no bending forward or backward). Close the eyes. The left hand should be on the thigh or knee; palm upwards. The right hand should be free to hold the nose.

(2) Siddhasana

Bend the left leg. Keep the heel near the anus. Keep the right heel over the urinary organ. Place the left palm downwards on the right knee and palm upwards. Keep the right hand free to hold the nose. Focus the gaze on the tip of the nose.

 (3) Sukhasana

Stand on both the knees and keep the right foot on the left side and the left foot on the right side. Tie both the knees with both hands. Hold the wrist of one hand with the other hand. If you have to hold the nose with one hand, then tie both the knees with a cloth.

Method of Pranayama

(1) Purak - Inhale.

(2) Rechak - Exhale.

(3) Kumbhak - Hold the breath inside. There are two types of Kumbhak-

(a) When the breath is inhaled and held inside, it is called Antar Kumbhak.

(b) When the breath is held outside after exhaling, the breathing process is stopped for some time, it is called Bahya Kumbhak.

Practice and see!

 First Pranayam: Take a simple breathing pose. Concentrate on your mind. Close the right nostril with your right hand. Slowly inhale as much as you can through the left nostril. When the lungs are completely filled with air, close the left nostril. Now slowly exhale the air through the right nostril. When the breath is exhaled, slowly inhale again through the right nostril. Now close the right nostril and slowly exhale through the left nostril.

Do this pranayama 15 to 20 times.

Second Pranayama: Samvet

Do this after the first pranayama -

(a) Inhale through both nostrils simultaneously (do Purak); take in as much air as you can in your lungs.

(b) Hold your breath for one second (do Kumbhak).

(c) Slowly exhale through both nostrils simultaneously (do Rechak).

Do this pranayama 15 times.

Third Pranayama: Sahit

(a) Inhale through both nostrils simultaneously (do Purak).

(b) Close both nostrils and hold your breath (do Antah Kumbhak); hold it for as long as you can (do not force yourself).

 (c) After this, exhale the air from both the nostrils simultaneously.

Do it 10 times.

Fourth Pranayama Additional

(a) Inhale from both the nostrils simultaneously (do Purak).

(b) Now close both the nostrils and hold the breath inside (do Anta Kumbhak).

(c) Now exhale the breath from both the nostrils simultaneously, slowly (do Rechak).

(d) Now close both the nostrils and hold the breath outside for as long as possible (do Bahir Kumbhak).

Do it only five times.

There are many other asanas of Vishesh-Yoga, but leave them for those who do special sadhna. As far as physical health is concerned, the above four Pranayamas are sufficient.

Hypogonadism causes, symptoms and treatment without medicine

 Hypogonadism causes, symptoms and treatment without medicine

What is Hypogonadism

Hypogonadism is a medical condition in which the body doesn't produce enough sex hormones (estrogen in females and testosterone in males) or has an impaired ability to produce reproductive cells (sperm in males and eggs in females). This condition can occur due to various reasons like genetic disorders, autoimmune disorders, tumors, infections, or other unknown causes.

Hypogonadism can be classified into two types

1. Primary hypogonadism

Also known as gonadal failure, this occurs when the testes or ovaries themselves are not working properly. This can be due to factors like genetic mutations, autoimmune conditions, infections, or tumor-related issues.

2. Secondary hypogonadism

This type of hypogonadism is related to issues with the hypothalamus (a part of the brain) or the pituitary gland, which are responsible for regulating the production of sex hormones. Factors like tumors, genetic disorders, or radiation therapy can cause secondary hypogonadism.

The symptoms of hypogonadism can vary depending on the age of onset and the severity of the deficiency. In general, symptoms may include----

In males

 low libido, erectile dysfunction, reduced muscle mass, loss of body hair, fatigue, anemia, decreased body weight, osteoporosis, and infertility.

 In females

 irregular or absent periods, low libido, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, breast atrophy, osteoporosis, and infertility.

Treatment options for hypogonadism may include hormone replacement therapy, fertility treatments, or lifestyle changes to address contributing factors like obesity or stress. It is essential to consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and treatment options tailored to individual needs.

Yoga treatment of Hypogonadism

.

Yoga can be a useful complement to traditional treatment when dealing with hypogonadism. While it's not a direct remedy to increase hormone production, it can help with stress management and overall well-being, which can promote hormone balance.

Here are some ways yoga may contribute to treating hypogonadism---

1. Reducing stress

 High stress levels can negatively impact hormone production. Practicing yoga regularly can help lower stress levels, which can indirectly benefit hormone levels.

2. Improving mood

 Hypogonadism may result in symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and fatigue. Yoga has been shown to help improve mood and alleviate these symptoms.

3. Enhancing flexibility and strength

 Yoga can help improve flexibility, strength, and balance, which may help reduce the risk of injuries that could negatively impact hormone production.

4. Promoting better sleep

Poor sleep can exacerbate the symptoms of hypogonadism. Yoga can help improve sleep quality, which can help alleviate these symptoms.

5. Encouraging a healthy lifestyle

Regular yoga practice encourages a healthy lifestyle, including meditation, proper diet, and exercise. Adhering to such a lifestyle can help in improving overall health and well-being, which can contribute to hormonal balance.

It's essential to consult your healthcare provider before starting any yoga practice, especially if you have an underlying medical condition. They can guide you in designing a suitable yoga routine and help monitor your progress. As with any treatment, whether traditional or alternative, it's crucial to have a comprehensive approach, combining multiple therapies tailored to your specific needs.

Naturopathy treatment of hypogonadism

Naturopathy is a form of alternative medicine that aims to treat the underlying cause of diseases by using natural remedies, such as dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and natural supplements. Here are some naturopathic approaches to treating hypogonadism---

1. Diet and Nutrition

   a. Increase intake of zinc

 Zinc is essential for the production and regulation of hormones. Foods rich in zinc include oysters, red meat, poultry, and beans.

   b. Increase intake of antioxidants

 Antioxidants help protect the body from oxidative stress and inflammation, which can contribute to hormonal imbalances. Focus on consuming a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.

   c. Consume foods rich in essential fatty acids (EFAs)

EFAs, such as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, help improve hormone balance and support overall health. Include foods like fatty fish, nuts, seeds, and their oils in your diet.

2. Lifestyle Modifications

   a. Exercise regularly

Exercise has been shown to help improve hormone levels, including testosterone and estrogen. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise, such as brisk walking, most days of the week.

   b. Manage stress

Chronic stress can have a negative impact on hormone production and regulation. Incorporate stress-reducing activities, such as yoga, meditation, or deep breathing exercises, into your daily routine.

   c. Maintain a healthy weight

Obesity can lead to hormonal imbalances. Work with a healthcare professional to develop a weight management plan that is appropriate for your individual needs.

3. Natural Supplements

   a. Ashwagandha

Ashwagandha is an adaptogenic herb that may help support hormone balance and reduce stress levels.

   b. Magnesium

Magnesium is a mineral that plays a role in numerous physiological processes, including the metabolism of hormones. Supplementing with magnesium may help improve hormone levels.

   c. Vitamin D

Vitamin D helps regulate the production of various hormones in the body. Consider supplementing with Vitamin D if you do not get enough sunlight exposure to attain sufficient levels.

4. Herbal Remedies

   a. Ginseng

Ginseng has been used in traditional medicine to help improve energy levels and boost hormone production.

   b. Licorice root

Licorice root has been shown to help improve adrenal function and support hormone balance.

Please note that these naturopathic approaches should not replace conventional medical treatment for hypogonadism. It is crucial to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your treatment plan or diet. They can help ensure you receive the appropriate care for your specific needs.

Enema Procedure, benefits and precautions

 Enema Procedure, benefits and precautions

Why do we become sick?

Nowadays, Puri-kachori, Bhature-chhole and such heavy food have become a part of our life. Working people often survive by having such lunch in the afternoon. Such food accumulates feces inside us for weeks. After all, constipation persists for some days; fever persists for some days; the doctor's medicines keep poisoning the body system for some days. After some feces are expelled, we recover a little, but the body remains like a rat. Because, the poison of the medicines is dissolved inside.

What to do when you are sick?

Open the doors of excreta completely. When feces can be expelled by just this, then why fall sick in vain? Why pay the fees of doctors and medicines?

Yes, during fasting, there is no pressure of fresh food. Still, it is necessary to expel the feces from inside. For this, an enema should be taken. Even if the cleaning of the colon is incomplete, an enema should be taken.

When and how to take an enema?

(1) Time 

 Get up in the morning and go to the toilet. Take an enema. If you have the habit of going to the toilet twice, then take the enema after the second time. If it is necessary to take enema for several days continuously, then it can be taken at night, before going to sleep.

(2) Method 

Enema should be taken by lying on the back, or kneeling and resting on the elbows.

(3) Refreshment 

 Immediately after taking the enema, one should drink fresh water, or half a kilo of hot water that can be drunk.

(4) The container or bag for enema 

 should be at a height of about one meter. By keeping it at a higher height, the water comes down forcefully and reaches inside through the anus with speed, due to which the need for defecation starts to be felt soon.

(5) Water 

Only that much water should be taken inside through enema, as much as can be taken easily without any pain. In the beginning, one kilo is sufficient, which can be gradually increased to two kilos. Small children can be given 200 grams, 250 grams, 300 grams of water through enema as per their condition. In this regard, advice should be taken from a physician, doctor or an expert. The truth is that in naturopathy, you can be your own best doctor.

(6) Temperature of water 

 Put your hand in the water and see if it is bearable. For the information of those who know the temperature, it is requested that the water be heated up to 1100 Fahrenheit.

(7) Mixture in water 

The juice of one lemon is sufficient in two kilos of water. Filter the water and lemon juice with a clean (washed white) cloth. 25 grams of Madhu (honey) can also be mixed in the water. If the chamber is very hard, i.e. if there is severe constipation, then 10 grams of ground salt should also be mixed in the water.

(8) Nozzle of the enema apparatus 

Before taking an enema, open the nozzle and take out about 20 grams of water. This removes the air present in the front part of the tube. Before inserting the nozzle in the anus, it is necessary to apply ghee or oil on the front end.

After taking the enema, wash the entire apparatus including the tube with soap and warm water.

(9) Urge to defecate 

 Many times, rather often, one feels the urge to defecate while taking an enema. If the urge is not very strong, one should try to stop it for a while. By doing this, only the water of the enema comes out through the anus, and not the stool. When the urge becomes strong and cannot be stopped, one should defecate and then take an enema again.

(10)Waiting

  After taking the enema, try to wait for 3 to 4 minutes and turn to the right or left side. This helps dissolve the stool in the water introduced through the enema, which is often difficult to hold after taking an enema.

(11) Full enema 

If two kilograms of water is to be introduced through enema, it takes 8-10 minutes, it should not take more than this time.

(12) Defecation 

If all the water does not come out after sitting for defecation once, then one should sit for defecation again, so that the remaining water comes out along with the remaining stool. If some water still remains inside, then there is no need to worry, after some time it comes out through urine.

(13) Pressure on the anus 

 When sitting for defecation after enema, one should not put pressure or strain on the anus (excretory passage). The excretory passage should be allowed to work naturally. One should not get up and run away from the toilet in a hurry; one should sit and wait for 10-15 minutes for complete cleaning.

(14) Enema again 

 If complete cleaning is not done, then enema should be taken again for the second time, but not for the third time. The need to take enema for the second time arises only when there is severe constipation. After taking two enemas on the first day, one should not take more than one enema a day for several days.

(15) Toilet or place 

 Enema should be taken at a place where the toilet is nearby. It is even better if the toilet is kept nearby.

(16) Bath 

 There is no harm in taking a bath immediately after an enema. In summers, fresh tap water is good for bathing and it is good if the water in the lamp is bearable hot.

(17) Food 

 Enema should be taken on an empty stomach.

(a) Do not take breakfast or lunch before enema. If you have eaten something, then enema should be taken three hours after that.

(b) Even if you have eaten food in case of indigestion and there is severe abdominal pain, then there is no harm in taking an enema to remove stool.

(c) Breakfast can be taken fifteen minutes after taking enema. Food can be taken one or two hours after that. The condition is that you should be hungry.

(18) Fasting and enema 

If bowel movement has been done properly on the day of fasting, then there is no need to take enema; but if there is constipation, then taking enema along with fasting is necessary. Due to not eating anything during fasting, there is no additional burden on the intestines, so the stool does not move out on its own; Therefore, enema is often necessary during fasting.

(16) Pregnant and enema

 Some people think that a pregnant woman should not take enema; this is their misconception. A woman who has problems like vomiting etc., has no harm in taking enema; rather, taking enema relieves many of her problems. Before taking enema, a pregnant woman must ask her doctor or the health center where she has registered about taking enema.

How does an enema help?

 How and what benefits enema provides, the views expressed in 'Simple Natural Therapy' are noteworthy----

"If we want to get rid of the diseases arising in our body, then the first way is to clean the rectum and bring it to its natural state. Because, even if we try to remove a disease by any medicine or external treatment, it can never be completely cured by it until the disorders occurring in the rectum are not prevented from entering the blood system as before. The condition of the large intestine in the body is just like a drain in a city. If the garbage of the drain is removed and it is kept clean, then it does not give a foul smell and it does not have any bad effect on anyone's health. If negligence is shown in its cleaning, then it has a bad effect on the health of all the nearby residents.

In the present times, the artificiality that has come in the food and lifestyle of humans, and the fashion The way they have abandoned the bulky health-giving products and have started using mechanical and flashy products in their place, it is difficult to find even five people out of a hundred who do not have some complaint of constipation and whose digestive system can be said to be absolutely fine. That is why these days many people have started needing digestive powders and chutneys. Many people are also seen taking medicines from doctors and vaidyas to clear their stomach. Initially, the stool is removed with the help of medicines and the stomach also feels lighter, but there is no permanent benefit. Due to diarrhoea with the help of medicines, the natural strength of the stomach decreases. If a person, after clearing his stomach once, again starts eating as before, then after some time he gets even more severe constipation than before. In this way, the strength of the stomach of many people keeps on decreasing and by the age of forty-fifty years or even before that, they reach such a state that they do not find any benefit from churna, chutney and laxative medicines and constipation remains always there. In such a condition, the body of a person becomes unhealthy and he cannot do his daily work properly. Gradually, many more diseases develop and their life itself becomes a burden.

The right way of cleaning

The natural way of cleaning the rectum is to pour water into it from outside. This method is natural and harmless, because water only goes into the rectum or the large intestine and comes out with the stool after a while. If the temperature of this water is the same as that of the body, then there is no possibility of any kind of harm to the body due to it. Two types of enema devices are available in the market for this purpose--

(1) This is a very simple and harmless thing. It has an enamel vessel in which up to one and a half seers of water can be filled. A four to five feet long rubber tube is attached to this vessel, at the other end of which there is a tap nozzle. This nozzle is inserted into the anus and water is pumped up.

(2) The second type of enema is like a 'pump'. It is about two feet long,  one end of which is put in a vessel of water and the other is inserted in the anus. Then by repeatedly pressing the ball-like part in the middle, water starts flowing from the vessel into the anus.

Very easy treatment in the world

Very easy treatment in the world

My dear friends

Naturopathy is very simple. Without anyone's help, one can treat oneself by just reading a book. Lakhs of people have done it and are doing it.

Means of treatment are available everywhere.

By treatment through naturopathy, the disease is eradicated from its roots. It is not that one disease is suppressed and another emerges.

Since this treatment is natural, it is infallible, precise and a panacea.

There is no expense, or the expense is nominal.

There is no need for surgery or injection.

One can avoid the use of dirty and poisonous medicines.

The patient learns a pure and healthy lifestyle forever.

By gaining knowledge of this treatment, a person gathers confidence and courage to relieve the sufferings of others.

This treatment is so simple and effective that the sick person does not have to rub his heels on the bed. After getting immediate relief, he gets back to his work.

In this treatment, the effect of the disease either becomes so mild that there is no mental tension,

Or the disease is cured by urine and roots.

This treatment is Sattvik, so physical and mental impurities go away on their own.

In this treatment, only one disease is treated, but other diseases hidden inside the body are also cured.

After understanding this method of treatment, a person does not get trapped in the trap of becoming a laboratory of Hakims' prescriptions and doctors' tricks.

The whole universe is created from these five elements - soil, water, sunlight, air and sky. All the disorders of the human body can be cured from these. 'Bringing man to his natural state' is 'Natural treatment'. In other words, 'living in swabhaavik state' is the natural treatment. For this reason -

 Natural treatment is the simplest.

 This is the only method to get quick relief and live a long life by staying healthy.

 By treating with naturopathy, the disease is removed from its root and complete relief is obtained. It does not happen that one disease is suppressed and another disease emerges.

 Being a natural method, relief is obtained very quickly.

There is no special expense in natural treatment.

 Needles, knives, scissors, injections etc. are not used in this, i.e. there is no need for incision and puncture.

 Poisonous medicines do not have to be put in the stomach.

The patient learns to adopt a correct lifestyle forever.

Whoever gets the knowledge of the disorder in nature, he will cure himself and others with self-confidence.

 In naturopathy, a person prepares to get up from the bed; not to hold on to the bed.

By getting cured through naturopathy, a person soon returns to normal condition and becomes capable of performing his duties.

This treatment removes mental tension and stress. By getting mental peace, it is natural that the energy of every part of the body increases.

 After treatment through this method, a person does not become irritable, because this is a Sattvik system of treatment.

Nowadays some people have made the medical profession a means of looting. In naturopathy, there is no question of looting or falling prey to the fraud of doctors.

In this system of treatment, the illusion of the severity of the disease disappears from the heart.

For the knowledge of naturopathy, there is no need to waste time and money on diplomas and degrees.

In this system of treatment, there is no need for instruments like X-ray, thermometer, stethoscope, cardiograph etc. and allopathic tests of the patient's stool, urine, phlegm, saliva, blood etc. In this treatment, the disease is diagnosed by looking at the shape and colour of the face.

Dr. Louis Kane has written, "My experience of teaching is that a person whose eyes are healthy can learn this new method of diagnosis and no special talent is required for this."

Naturopathy is more practical and beneficial than all other treatments.

 Naturopathy treats not only the disease but the entire body of the patient. It removes the weakness in the life force of the patient and provides the body with the strength and ability to fight the disease.

This is the only method in which a person starts considering disease as a friend instead of an enemy which shows the right path to remove the toxic elements stuck inside his body.

Natural treatment system is simple, easy and entertaining like a game.

- With this treatment all the powers of the body remain stable and the person becomes agile in body and mind.

Cure of diseases without medicine

 Cure of diseases without medicine

Just as diseases arise in the human body due to irregular activities, similarly God has created ways to become healthy without medicine through internal activities. We do not know this natural skill given by God, due to which we suffer from diseases for a long time and unnecessarily give money to doctors. While travelling around the country, I had learnt ways to cure diseases without medicine from Siddha Yogi Mahatmas, later I tested them many times and saw their direct results; therefore, with the aim of benefiting the general public, I am revealing some of those ways. Readers can get direct results by using the below mentioned ways. By using these ways, neither will one have to bear the pain of disease for a long time, nor will one have to spend money and nor will one have to fill one's stomach with medicines. Once a person becomes healthy with this skill mentioned in Swara Shastra, then there is no possibility of that disease attacking again. I request the readers to try it.

Fever

When there is an attack of fever or there is a possibility of an attack, the nostril through which breathing is taking place should be closed. Until the fever subsides and the body becomes healthy, that nostril should be kept closed. By doing this, the fever which used to subside in ten to fifteen days will definitely subside in five to seven days. During fever, one gets even faster relief by always meditating on the white colour like silver in the mind.

By tying the root of Sinduwar to the hand of the patient, all types of fever are definitely cured.

Intestinal Fever

A bundle of white Aparajita or Palash leaves should be made by rubbing them in the hand and wrapping them i n a cloth and on the day when it is the turn of fever, one should start smelling it from the morning itself. Antaria fever will stop.

Headache

In case of headache, the elbows of both hands should be tied tightly with the edge of the dhoti or a rope. This will remove the headache within five to seven minutes. The elbows should be tied so tightly that the patient feels extreme pain in the hands. As soon as the headache is relieved, the arms should be opened.

There is another type of headache, which is generally called 'hemicrania' or 'hagiarchic'. Extreme pain is felt from the middle of the skull to the left or right half of the skull and forehead. Usually this pain starts at sunrise and increases as the day progresses. It starts decreasing after noon and usually does not remain till evening. When this disease attacks, a rope should be tied tightly on the elbow of the side of the skull on which the pain is felt, as mentioned above. The pain will subside in a short while and the disease will go away. If the pain starts again the next day and it starts every day while breathing through the same nostril, then as soon as the headache is felt, that nostril should be closed and the hand should also be tied. You will be amazed to see the amazing results of this action in 'hemicrania' headache.

Headache

A patient suffering from headache should drink cold water through the nostrils as soon as he gets up from bed in the morning. This will keep the brain cool, the head will not become heavy and there will be no cold. This process is not very difficult either. Fill a vessel with cold water and dip the nose in it and slowly draw the water into the throat.

With practice this process will become easy. When there is headache, the doctor gives up the hope of the patient's recovery, the patient also suffers a lot; but by using this method, there will definitely be benefits beyond expectations. Abdominal pain, indigestion etc.

Whenever food, snacks etc. are to be eaten, they should be eaten while breathing through the right nostril. By eating food daily with this rule, it will be digested very easily and one will never suffer from indigestion. If the people suffering from this disease also eat food daily according to this rule, then the food eaten will be digested and gradually their disease will be cured. After eating, one should sleep on the left side for a while. Those who do not have time should adopt such a method that breathing continues through the right nostril for ten to fifteen minutes after eating. That is, according to the above rule, the left nostril should be closed with cotton. Even if the food is heavy, it gets digested quickly with this rule.

By sitting steadily and meditating on the navel by focusing the gaze on the navel, abdominal disease gets cured in a week.

By holding the breath and pulling the navel and joining the navel gland with the spine one hundred times, all kinds of abdominal pains like ama etc. go away and the gastric fire and digestive power increase.

Spleen

After sleeping on the bed at night and while getting up in the morning, hands and feet should be curled and then left. Then, by turning the body sometimes on one side and sometimes on the other, the whole body should be curled and then curled and stretched. By doing this for four to five minutes every day, spleen-liver disease will be cured. By practicing this regularly, one will never have to suffer from spleen-liver disease.

Dental diseases

Every day, as many times as you pass stool or urine, keep pressing the two rows of teeth together with a little force. As long as stool or urine is coming out, teeth should be pressed together in this manner. By doing this for two to four days, the roots of weak teeth will become strong. By practicing this regularly, the roots of teeth become strong and the teeth serve for a long time and there is no fear of any kind of disease in the teeth.

 Nervous pain

Chest, back or armpit - wherever there is nervous pain or any other kind of pain, as soon as the pain is felt, the nostril through which you are breathing should be closed; after two to four minutes the pain will definitely subside.

Asthma or Respiratory Disease

When there is a severe attack of asthma, the nostril through which you are exhaling should be closed and breathing should be done through the other nostril. The intensity will reduce in ten to fifteen minutes. By doing this daily, the pain will subside within a month. The longer this process is done in a day, the sooner this disease will be cured. There is no disease as painful as asthma; by doing this process when asthma is severe, the disease gets cured without any medicine.

  Vata disease

After having food daily, the head should be combed. The comb should be used in such a way that its bristles touch the head. After that, one should sit in Veerasan, that is, bending both the legs backwards and pressing them, for 15 minutes. By sitting in this manner after having food daily, no matter how old the Vata is, it will definitely get cured. There is no harm in eating paan-tobacco while sitting in this manner. If a healthy person follows this rule, then there will be no possibility of him getting Vata disease. Needless to say, one should not use a rubber comb.

Eye diseases

As soon as you get up from bed every morning, first of all, fill your mouth with as much water as you can and then wash your eyes with the other water by splashing it twenty times.

While washing your hands and face after having food twice a day, you should splash water on your eyes at least seven times.

Do not forget to wash your eyes and mouth as many times as you pour water in your mouth.

While doing oil massage every day during bathing, first of all, fill the nails of the big toes of both feet with oil and then apply the oil.

These few rules are especially beneficial for the eyes. They sharpen the vision, keep the eyes smooth and there is no possibility of any disease in the eye. Eyes are the greatest wealth of man. Therefo

re, one should never be lazy in following the rules every day.

Health Benefits & Concerns for Fruits

 Health Benefits & Concerns for Fruits

Asthma

Vitamin C. present in fruits, is a powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. Its anti-inflammatory activity may decrease the incidence of asthma symptoms. A large preliminary study has shown that young children with asthma experience significantly less wheezing if they eat a diet high in fruits rich in vitamin C.

Atherosclerosis

A diet high in fiber prevents coronary heart disease. Eating fruits high in the soluble fiber pectin has also been linked with reduced cholesterol levels, which protects against atherosclerosis.

Athletic performance

Carbohydrates are the most efficient fuel for energy production and can also be stored as glycogen in muscle and liver, functioning as a readily available energy source for prolonged, strenuous exercise. For these reasons, carbohydrates may be the most important nutrient for sports performance. Depending on training intensity and duration, athletes require up to 4.5 grams of carbohydrates per day per pound of body

weight or 60-70% of total dietary calories from carbohydrates, whichever is greater. Emphasizing intake of fruits and other high-quality carbohydrates while reducing intake of fatty foods may be for athletic performance.

Bronchitis

A diet high in antioxidants may

protect against the free-radical-damaging effect of environmental toxins or cigarette smoke. Studies comparing different populations have shown that increasing fruit consumption may reduce the risk of developing chronic bronchitis.

Bruising

Many Americans eat insufficient

amounts of foods containing vitamin C; the disease caused by vitamin C deficiency, scurvy, causes easy bruising. While very few people actually have scurvy, even minor deficiencies of vitamin C can increase bruising. People who experience easy bruising may want to try eating more fruits-common dietary sources of vitamin C. The diet can be assessed by doctors by using a diet diary, sometimes accompanied by computerized diet analysis. A diet diary is a written record of what and how much a person is eating, usually divided into sections by meal and/or day. As used by many doctors, diet

diaries lasting one week are most common. If such an analysis reveals a lack of dietary vitamin C and flavonoids (related compounds present in most fruit), the diet requires more fruits and vegetables to correct the problem.

Cancer

Consumption of fruits is widely accepted as lowering the risk of most common cancers except prostate cancer. A meta-analysis of studies on breast cancer risk and diet found that high consumption of fruit was associated with a 6% reduction of breast cancer compared to low consumption in 12 studies. Many doctors recommend that people wishing to reduce their risk of cancer eat several pieces of fruit and several portions of vegetables every day. Optimal intakes remain unknown.

Capillary Fragility

Eating plenty of fruit will provide more of the nutrients mentioned in the following paragraph that support the structure of capillaries.

Patients undergoing dialysis may develop low levels of vitamin C, which can lead to capillary fragility. As little as 100 mg per day may help people with artificially induced fragility, an amount that can be obtained by eating several pieces of fruit per day. For others, higher amounts may be necessary (1gram or more), which requires vitamin C supplementation.

Widespread plant compounds called flavonoids help strengthen weakened capillaries. In test tube and animal studies, they have been shown to protect collagen, one of the most important components of capillary walls. Flavonoids are abundant in fruits, although increasing fruit consumption alone may not be sufficient to prevent or reverse capillary fragility. Studies showing a benefit to capillary integrity from flavonoids have used dietary flavonoid supplements.

Cardiovascular disease

A diet high in fruits appears protective against heart disease. The total number of deaths from cardiovascular disease was significantly lower among men with high fruit consumption in one preliminary study.

A large study of male healthcare professionals found that those men eating mostly a "prudent" diet (high in fruits, vegetables, legumes, whole grains, fish, and poultry) had a 30% lower risk of heart attacks compared to men who ate the fewest foods in the "prudent" category.

Aparallel study of female healthcare professionals showed a 15% reduction in cardiovascular risk when they at a diet high in fruits and vegetables compared to the effect of a low fruit and vegetable diet.
