Arthritis Bursitis & Garlic

Arthritis
Arthritis literally means joint inflammation. Arthritis is not a single disease. Arthritis refers to a group of more than 100 rheumatic diseases and other conditions that can cause pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints. Any part of your body can become inflamed or painful from arthritis. Some rheumatic conditions can result in debilitating, even life-threatening complications or may affect other parts of the body including the muscles, bones, and internal organs.

Types of Arthritis

Rheumatoid arthritis vs. osteoarthritis Arthritis is the swelling and tenderness of one or more of your joints. The main symptoms of arthritis are joint pain and stiffness, which typically worsen with age. The most common types of arthritis are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/arthritis/symptoms.../syc-20350772

Bursitis

Bursitis (bur-SY-tis) is a painful condition that affects the small, fluid-filled sacs — called bursae (bur-SEE) — that cushion the bones, tendons and muscles near your joints. Bursitis occurs when bursae become inflamed. The most common locations for bursitis are in the shoulder, elbow and hip. https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/bursitis/symptoms.../syc-20353242

Inflammation

Inflammation is an immune response to injury or infection causes pain, redness, heat, and swelling in affected area (Latin, inflammare = to set on fire) Inflammation is a protective attempt by the [body] organism to remove the injurious stimuli and to initiate the healing process. http://assets.escardio.org/assets/Presentations/OTHER2011/Summer_School/201-Hansson.pdf

Chronic Inflammation

Since obesity is increasingly viewed by researchers as a chronic state of low-grade inflammation, the inflammation-related benefits of garlic's 1, 2-DT may eventually be extended into the clinical area of obesity. http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=60

Obesity

Obesity is viewed by researchers as a chronic state of low-grade inflammation, the inflammation-related benefits of garlic's 1, 2-DT may eventually be extended into the clinical area of obesity. http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=60

Commentary:

Obesity occurs when there is more weight than the body is designed to carry. Chronic obesity is when that over-weight causes medical issues. See: https://thehealthalert.blogspot.com/2019/08/weight-loss-garlic.html

Effective Remedy

Sulfur                                                                                                                                                                                  Sulfur plays an essential role in collagen production garlic is a food rich in sulfur. Collagen is needed to form cartilage tissue, which cushions joints. The problem is that sulfur levels tend to be lower in arthritic joints than in healthy joints, and the body cannot produce sulfur on its own; therefore, sulfur intake must come from dietary sources. The sulfur in garlic helps to repair cartilage and reduce muscle and joint pain by producing an anti-inflammatory analgesic effect on the affected joints. http://www.livestrong.com/article/108811-arthritis-garlic/

Garlic

Garlic is another effective remedy for arthritis. It contains an anti-inflammatory property which accounts for its effectiveness in the treatment of this disease. http://www.home-remedies-for-you.com/remedy/Arthritis.html

Suggestion: For weight loss try taking a few ounces 15-30 minutes before meals; adjust as needed. Doctors recommend eating healthy diet high in fruit and vegetables in and exercise.

Garlic Pills: The more popular version of garlic unfortunately tends to be the "odorless" pills and capsules found in health food stores. Odorless garlic as an antibiotic or general health promotion herb is useless if it doesn't have its smell. Garlic oil and powder supplements are produced by distilling fresh garlic, and then diluting it with other substances. This process destroys the majority of allicin in garlic.

Fibromyalgia and The Garlic Remedy

 What is Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by fatigue, sleep, memory and mood issues. Researchers believe that fibromyalgia amplifies painful sensations by affecting the way your brain processes pain signals.

Fibromyalgia Symptoms

Sometimes symptoms begin after a physical trauma, surgery, infection or significant psychological stress. In other cases, symptoms gradually accumulate over time with no single triggering event. … Women are much more likely to develop fibromyalgia than are men. Many people who have fibromyalgia also have tension headaches, joint disorders, irritable bowel syndrome, anxiety and depression. While there is no cure for fibromyalgia, a variety of medications can help control symptoms. Exercise, relaxation and stress-reduction measures may also help.  

Symptoms and Diagnosis of Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia symptoms include widespread body pain, fatigue, poor sleep and mood problems. But all of these symptoms are common to many other conditions. And because fibromyalgia symptoms can occur alone or along with other conditions, it can take time to tease out which symptom is caused by what problem. To make things even more confusing, fibromyalgia symptoms can come and go over time. That's why it can take a long time to go from fibromyalgia symptoms to a fibromyalgia diagnosis. No specific test for fibromyalgia.

 Fibromyalgia can't be easily confirmed or ruled out through a simple laboratory test. Your doctor can't detect it in your blood or see it on an X-ray. Instead, fibromyalgia appears to be linked to changes in how the brain and spinal cord process pain signals. Because there is no test for fibromyalgia, your doctor must rely solely on your group of symptoms to make a diagnosis. In the American College of Rheumatology guidelines for diagnosing fibromyalgia, one of the criteria is widespread pain throughout your body for at least three months. "Widespread" is defined as pain on both sides of your body, as well as above and below your waist.

http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/fibromyalgia/basics/definition/con-20019243

 

a- Commentary: Would frequent colds/flu, allergies, exposure to toxins and use of Rx and o-t-c drugs constitute a physical trauma to the body similar to a fractured bone?

Relaxation and stress-reduction measures may help; could increased holistic methods (exercise, herbs, meditation, etc.) help reduce stress/nervous-system symptoms to the point on less medication?      

For joint disorders: American College of Rheumatology … cayenne pepper or crushed garlic can boost the immune system. https://books.google.com/books?id=NZYU0pNnvtQC&pg=PA101&dq=american+college+of+rheumatology+garlic+and+fibromyalgia&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAGoVChMI1fjg5NHRyAIVCtljCh1kygh-#v=onepage&q=american%20college%20of%20rheumatology%20garlic%20and%20fibromyalgia&f=false [P.101 Treatment Options & Outlook]

Cause of Fibromyalgia

No one knows what causes fibromyalgia; however ...  people with it may have abnormal levels of Substance P, a chemical that helps transmit and amplify pain signals to and from the brain. Persons with fibromyalgia it is as though the volume control is turned up too high in the brains’ pain processing areas. https://books.google.com/books?id=NZYU0pNnvtQC&pg=PA101&dq=american+college+of+rheumatology+garlic+and+fibromyalgia&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAGoVChMI1fjg5NHRyAIVCtljCh1kygh-#v=onepage&q=american%20college%20of%20rheumatology%20garlic%20and%20fibromyalgia&f=false  [P101 Risk Factors & Preventative Measures]

Substance P is a small peptide that's released when the nervous system is stimulated. It's involved in the regulation of the pain threshold (the point at which sensation is perceived as pain). Increased levels of substance P can make nerves more sensitive to pain and heighten the awareness of pain. Research suggests that some people with fibromyalgia may have elevated levels of substance P.

Substance P often functions as a neurotransmitter, which means that it communicates signals from one brain cell to another. It's one of several neurotransmitters believed to be dysregulated in fibromyalgia.  https://www.verywellhealth.com/what-is-substance-p-715867

b-Commentary: My understanding: Substance P is a vital chemical necessary for brain functioning; which signals the hormone-making organs to generate this chemical that affects the delicate balance of the nervous/pain system; Right?

IF indeed garlic has the ability to balance all body systems and fortify all organs … the questions shift to who, what, when, how’s of a garlic remedy?  Why; because rather contend with the smell that cures vs synthetic treatments that kill!

The Garlic Remedy                                                                                                                       Garlic can relieve fibromyalgia inflammation … there's overwhelming evidence that garlic can block the enzymes that bring on inflammation thus giving relief to those who suffer from ailments like arthritis and asthma. For many years, experts have known that a large number of pro-inflammatory but new evidence has turned this idea on its head, lending credence to the theory that many of the conditions associated with fibromyalgia are of an inflammatory nature. But anti-inflammatory drugs can be hard on the liver and digestive tract, so it's important to find another way to fight off inflammation.

Garlic has been shown to not only relieve inflammation, but can eradicate the bugs that can bring on colds and flu, stomach viruses, yeast infections, tuberculosis, and botulism. The herb has also been demonstrated to reduce levels of the chemical that make your body friendly to certain viruses, such as HIV. Using garlic cytokines (proteins excreted by cells in the immune system) are found in chronic fatigue syndrome patients. Until now, scientists weren't convinced that fibromyalgia patients experienced a similar inflammatory response, can therefore result in a lower viral load. Garlic is also known to promote good heart health and may also lower your risk profile for certain cancers. https://www.fibromyalgia-symptoms.org/hold-your-breath.html

When you are suffering from a hormonal imbalance, inflammation can occur, disrupting your body’s processes. Garlic can reduce that inflammation, helping hormones so they do not have to overcompensate for those cellular changes.  https://www.thedailymeal.com/healthy-eating/foods-can-help-balance-your-hormones-naturally-0/slide-7

Inflammation is an immune response to injury or infection causes pain, redness, heat, and swelling in affected area.http://assets.escardio.org/assets/Presentations/OTHER2011/Summer_School/201-Hansson.pdf.

Garlic is the first herb on the list when any dangerous infection is present. For any infection, anywhere in the body, garlic can and should be taken internally; Garlic one of the most useful remedies for inflammation is a very powerful antibacterial, antiviral, and anti pathogen substance. It is the heavy artillery when it comes to destroying any type of infection. http://www.all4naturalhealth.com/anti-inflammatory-herbs.html.

Gastro Paresis and Garlic

What Is Gastroparesis is a condition that affects the normal spontaneous movement of the muscles (motility) in the stomach preventing the stomach from emptying properly.

Cause: It's not always clear what leads to gastroparesis; in many cases, gastroparesis is believed to be caused by damage to a nerve that controls the stomach muscles.

 

The vagus nerve helps manage the complex processes in your digestive tract, including signaling the muscles in your stomach to contract and push food into the small intestine.

 

A damaged vagus nerve can't send signals normally to the stomach muscles. This may cause food to remain in your stomach longer, rather than move normally into your small intestine to be digested. The vagus nerve can be damaged by diseases, such as diabetes, or by surgery to the stomach or small intestine.

https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/gastroparesis/symptoms-causes/syc-20355787

Vagus Nerve: Our bodies have two brains. There’s the one we all know about and a second one – in our guts. Both of these brains begin to form almost from the moment an egg is fertilized and develop from the same clump of tissue.  As this embryonic tissue divides during fetal development, one section evolves into the central nervous system, another into the enteric nervous system. The vagus nerve stretches from the brain stem through the neck and finally ends up in the abdomen providing continuous two-way line of communication between the gut and the brain. In the last decade or so scientists have discovered that each brain influences the other and imbalance in one can mean imbalance in the other.

Commentary: Understand why doctors may advocate Stem-cell Therapy; replace and regenerate old vargus nerve cells w/ those directly from original source. This maybe a viable treatment although expensive and question medical ethics w/ respect to donor harvesting cells and selective placement etc.

The gut brain:  The Second Brain, by a professor of anatomy and cell biology says: “The brain is not the only place in the body that’s full of neurotransmitters. A hundred million neurotransmitters line the length of the gut, approximately the same number that is found in the brain…”                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

Those butterflies in your stomach are real and caused by a surge of stress hormones released by the body in a “fight or flight” situation. Nearly every chemical that controls the brain in the head has been identified in the gut brain, including hormones and neurotransmitters (like serotonin). The gut’s brain and the head’s brain act the same way when they are deprived of input from the outside world.
 

Commentary: Is this why emotions surge and descend seemingly without warning with appetite demands? Would sunshine, natural green vitamin D3 supplements, wheat grass affect stress?

Drugs designed to have psychic effects on the brain are very likely to have an effect on the gut as well. For instance around a quarter of people taking Prozac or similar antidepressants that alter serotonin levels in the body, can end up with gastrointestinal problems like nausea, diarrhea and constipation. Evidence suggests that IBS (irritated bowel syndrome) originates from a change in serotonin levels. In a healthy person, serotonin in the gut is cleared from the bowel by a serotonin transporter found in the cells that line the gut wall.

A holistic view

Recent studies suggest that a healthy gut in infancy can in addition to helping to maintain immunity have a profound effect on our mind and emotional health later in life. Other data suggest the “cross-talk” between bacteria in our gut and our brain plays an important role in the development of psychiatric illness, intestinal diseases and probably other health problems including obesity.

But he opposite is also true. Our psychological, social and environmental environment can influence symptoms like pain and inflammation in the gut as well as how efficient our digestive process is.

Research suggests that some people with functional gastrointestinal tract (GI) disorders perceive pain more acutely than other people do because their brains do not properly regulate pain signals from the GI tract. Stress can make the existing pain seem even worse.

Maintaining that balance from early in life has as much influence on our mental and emotional health as it does our physical health.

Practice stress reduction. Both yoga and meditation are excellent ways to relax. Regular exercise is also important. But any hobby that absorbs you completely will substantially lower your levels of stress hormones and this will have a knock on effect on gut health. So remember – make space for yourself and the things you enjoy. http://www.nyrnaturalnews.com/article/get-smart-take-good-care-of-your-second-brain/

Hole in Heart & Other Cardiovascular Disorders - Diabetes - HBP

Hole in the Heart? 

A ventricular septal defect (VSD), a hole in the heart, is a common heart defect that's present at birth (congenital). The hole occurs in the wall that separates the heart's lower chambers (septum) and allows blood to pass from the left to the right side of the heart. The oxygen-rich blood then gets pumped back to the lungs instead of out to the body, causing the heart to work harder. A small ventricular septal defect may cause no problems, and many small VSDs close on their own. Larger VSDs need surgical repair early in life to prevent complications.

Symptoms

Signs and symptoms of serious heart defects often appear during the first few days, weeks or months of a child's life. Ventricular septal defect symptoms in a baby [adult?] may include:

·         Poor eating, failure to thrive

·         Fast breathing or breathlessness

·         Easy tiring

Signs and symptoms vary depending on the size of the hole and other associated heart defects. If the defect is small, symptoms may not appear until later in childhood — if at all. Sometimes a VSD isn't detected until a person reaches adulthood. Signs and symptoms can include

·         a heart murmur

·         shortness of breath

The TONIC Nutritional Garlic Supplement

 Made from a centuries-old recipe originally taken seasonally to prevent colds and flu The combination of organic ingredients contains the power of raw garlic and no unpleasant residue formulated to restore and maintain Good Health, Naturally

Cause Congenital Heart Defect

Congenital heart defects arise from problems early in the heart's development, but there's often no clear cause. Genetics and environmental factors probably play a role. VSDs can occur alone or with other congenital heart defects.

During fetal development, a ventricular septal defect occurs when the muscular wall separating the heart into left and right sides (septum) fails to form fully between the lower chambers of the heart (ventricles).

Normally, the right side of the heart pumps blood to the lungs to get oxygen; the left side pumps the oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body. A VSD allows oxygenated blood to mix with deoxygenated blood, causing the heart to work harder to provide enough oxygen to the body's tissues. It's also possible to acquire a VSD later in life, usually after a heart attack.

Treatment Congenital Heart Defect

Some smaller ventricular septal defects are closed surgically to prevent complications related to their locations, such as damage to heart valves. Many people with small VSDs have productive lives with few related problems.

Medications

Medications for ventricular septal defect may include those to:

·         Increase the strength of the heart's contractions. Examples include digoxin (Lanoxin).

·         Decrease the amount of fluid in circulation and in the lungs. Doing so reduces the volume of blood that must be pumped. These medications, called diuretics [water pill] include furosemide (Lasix).

·         Keep the heartbeat regular. Examples include beta blockers (Lopressor, Inderal LA, others) and digoxin (Lanoxin, Lanoxin Pediatric).

Effect of Garlic on Cardiovascular Disorders: A Review

Introduction:

Effectiveness of garlic in cardiovascular diseases was more encouraging in experimental studies, which prompted several clinical trials. This review has attempted to make a bridge the gap between experimental and clinical study and to discuss the possible mechanisms of such therapeutic actions of garlic.

Dietary factors play a key role in the development of various human diseases, including cardiovascular disease. Epidemiological studies have shown that diets rich in fruits, herbs and spices are associated with a low risk of cardiovascular disease.

Garlic has attracted particular attention of modern medicine because of its widespread health use around the world, and the cherished belief that it helps in maintaining good health warding off illnesses and providing more vigor. To date, many favorable experimental and clinical effects of garlic preparations, including garlic extract, have been reported.

These biological responses have been largely attributed to i) reduction of risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and cancer, ii) stimulation of immune function, iii) enhanced detoxification of foreign compound, iv) hepatoprotection, v) antimicrobial effect and vi) antioxidant effect. This review has been made indicating an overall view of the efficacy of garlic in cardiovascular disease conditions both in human and animals.

Raw garlic homogenate has been the major preparation of garlic subjected to intensive scientific study, as because it is the commonest way of garlic consumption. Raw garlic homogenate is essentially same as aqueous extract of garlic, which has been used in various scientific studies.

High Blood Pressure

A general definition of hypertension is a systolic blood pressure (SBP) of 140 mm Hg or higher or a diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of 90 mm Hg or higher or both. Prevention and proper management of hypertension decreases the incidence of related morbidity and mortality. Diets high in fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products; have been shown to reduce hypertension. Increased consumption of garlic is associated with lower incidence of hypertension in population.

Results HBP-Garlic

Blood pressure lowering effect of garlic on human is given in Table- ​Table-4.4. Blood pressure reduction was observed in 85% of the patients, the average decline being 12.3 mm Hg systolic (SBP) and 6.5 mm Hg diastolic (DBP) blood pressure, over one-quarter of the subjects experienced a decline in SBP of 20 mm Hg or more.

Diabetes

Diabetes mellitus is a group of diseases characterized by high blood glucose levels resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. Abnormalities in the metabolism of carbohydrate, protein, and fat are also present [122]. Nutrition plays a primary role to control blood glucose level and further complication.

Results Diabetes and Garlic

Hypoglycemic effect of garlic in human is not well studied. Chronic feeding of garlic oil and garlic powder [78,135] showed significant decrease in blood glucose level whereas some other studies [57,117,136] showed no change of blood glucose level. Relatively few side effects were reported in clinical studies using garlic and its preparations. Most of the reported side effects were non-specific. Gastrointestinal discomfort and nausea were the most frequent complaint [170].

Conclusions

Epidemiological study shows an inverse correlation between garlic consumption and reduced risk of cardiovascular disease progression [180–182]. The wealth of scientific literature supports the proposal that garlic consumption have significant cardioprotective effect, which include both animal and human studies. But certain issues regarding the proper use of garlic, i.e use of different preparations available, dose, duration and interaction with generic drugs should be optimized. Further research should also be carried out to identify specific compounds from garlic or garlic products that are responsible for most of its biological effects. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC139960/

Editor’s Commentary                                                                                                                                                 Garlic balances, fortifies and restores and appears to instinctively know what is needed to make bodily organs and systems function normally.

ONLY if current symptoms are tolerable Garlic [maybe] a viable method to [help] alleviate Heart, Lungs, Diabetes, HBP concerns and is strongly suggested BEFORE or with current prescription or surgery; a panacea for the human body.

Spots on Liver & Severe Spinal Stenosis

Liver Function/ Pathology                                                                                                                      Understanding liver function is important to see the potential links between garlic and supported liver health. The liver is the largest internal organ in your body, and it boasts an impressive list of vital functions. It's responsible for filtering toxins out of your blood, production of blood proteins and the digestion and production of fats. The liver regulates your body's supply of glucose and stores extra as glycogen. When the liver becomes diseased, its functions diminish, impacting nearly every other system in the body.

Spots on Liver

Imaging studies of the liver, including ultrasound, CT and MRI scans, allow doctors to visualize the structure and texture of the organ. Liver tissue normally has a uniform appearance on imaging scans. A spot on the liver -- also known as a hepatic mass -- describes a solid area that appears different from the majority of the liver tissue. Infections, inflammatory reactions and various types of noncancerous and cancerous tumors can appear as spots on the liver.

Hepatic Hemangioma

A hemangioma is a noncancerous tumor composed of abnormal blood vessels that form during development in the womb. Hepatic hemangiomas are the most common type of noncancerous liver tumor. These tumors occur more commonly in females than males and may present at any age, although most come to light during adulthood. Most hemangiomas are small, do not cause symptoms or interfere with liver function, and are discovered incidentally.

Focal Nodular Hyperplasia

Focal nodular hyperplasia (FNH) is the second most common type of noncancerous liver tumor. It occurs due to localized overgrowth of liver cells, or hepatocytes, and associated blood vessels in an otherwise healthy liver. As with liver hemangiomas, these tumors affect women more commonly than men, generally cause no symptoms, and usually come to medical attention coincidentally. FNH does not impair liver function and typically requires no treatment. Removal is sometimes recommended for large tumors, although this is rare. http://www.livestrong.com/article/190859-causes-of-spots-on-the-liver/

What Is Inflammation?

Inflammation has a positive and negative effect in your body. The positive side it helps your body respond to stress. But chronic low-grade inflammation is thought to be one of the leading causes of disease, premature aging, and illness.

When you get a cold, your body responds with inflammation in the form of a fever that helps you heal. The inflammation does its job, gets rid of the virus, and disappears. But if your immunity is compromised and your body is constantly stressed, you might experience chronic low-grade inflammation that leaves you more susceptible to illness and disease.

Help [Liver] Purge Toxins

Detoxification or removing the “bad stuff” from the body is a key component to health and longevity. There are many foods, herbs and drugs that are in the arsenal of a holistic patient and their doctor’s tool kit to help the body detoxify in a natural manner. Garlic is one of the most important! Garlic a super-food has two major functions:

·         A super detox food supporting many liver enzymes, the body’s manufacturing of glutathione and other factors critical for detoxification including multiple sulfur compounds and bio-active selenium.

·         Garlic is the most effective broad spectrum anti-microbial agent possessing 39 different anti-fungal, bacterial, parasitic and viral agents.

To be most effective in reducing the “bad bugs” garlic 2-3 times a day is recommended (keeping the blood levels up). Non-organic garlic will absorb toxins. http://info.nihadc.com/integrative-health-blog/bid/34791/The-Power-of-Garlic-a-Detoxification-Super-Food

 Severe Spinal Stenosis

What is Stenosis

Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the open spaces within your spine, which can put pressure on your spinal cord and the nerves that travel through the spine to your arms and legs. Spinal stenosis occurs most often in the lower back and the neck. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/spinal-stenosis/basics/definition/con-20036105 

L5-L6 Severe Stenosis

Lumbar spinal stenosis often affects the last three levels of the low back: L3-L4, L4-L5, and L5-S1. Sometimes more than one level is affected. https://www.spineuniverse.com/conditions/spinal-stenosis/lumbar-spinal-stenosis-2

Steroid Injections

Your nerve roots may become irritated and swollen at the spots where they are being pinched. Injecting a corticosteroid into the space around that constriction can help reduce the inflammation and relieve some of the pressure. Repeated steroid injections can weaken nearby bones and connective tissue, so only a few injections a year is suggested. http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/spinal-stenosis/basics/treatment/con-20036105

Surgical Decompression

Injections for spinal stenosis have typically been used if and when these measures fail; however, there is recent data which questions the usefulness of injections. The primary fix for symptomatic spinal stenosis which has not responded to other measures is called surgical decompression. 

Injections of corticosteroids may help to alleviate the inflammation around a compressed nerve, but because these injections can weaken nearby bone and connective tissue, only a few injections a year are usually recommended, according to the Mayo Clinic.
