WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM CELL THERAPY
Dr.Niehans stated the ultimate aim of cell therapy in this way :"What Ian striving after is not only to give more years to life but especially to give more life to years ."Niehan's aim was to "make all the organs struck by old age capable once more of functioning properly and , at the same time ,bring fresh strength to the whole body by revitalization of the sex glands ."
The problem that cell therapy is designed to solve include the following :
General loss of vitality,
Physical and mental exhaustion,
Convalescence after illness,
Premature aging,
Signs of deterioration of the brain ,heart ,kidneys ,lungs ,liver ,and digestive organs,
Weakness of the immune system ,
Arthritis and other degenerative diseases of the connective tissue,
Underfunction of the endocrine glands,
Disturbances of menopause,
Parkinsonism,
Chronic pain ,migraine ,headaches ,neuralgia ,back pain ,sciatica,
Artherosclerosis of the brain ,heart ,and peripheral circulation .
Cell therapy successfully revitalizes and extends youth .Cell therapists see their patients skin tone and complexion improve their vitality increase ,their youthful optimism and energy return and various other infirmities of aging much improve.
Dr.Niehaus used cell therapy for alot more than youth extension .He used live cell injections not only to regenerate diseased or aged organs but also to stimulate development of underdeveloped or retarded organs.In fact ,Niehans's successful treatment of dwarfism provided him with some of his earliest notoriety in the United States.
The basic therapeutic effect of cell therapy was described Dr.Niehans as "organotropic cellular regeneration in the impaired organs. "In other words ,the therapy stimulated the disease and aging-damaged organs to regenerate .This restoration usually takes anywhere from three to six months after the the injections .Any immediate effect ,explained Niehans, would have to be caused by hormones, not cellular regeneration.
Doctors who use cell therapy have reported that atherosclerosis patients also benefit .In a study performed on laboratory rats,cell therapy increased the residual pliability of aorta tissue to that when stretched,it returned to its original shape much faster.This is a characteristic of younger tissue.
Experiments on connective tissue have shown that cell therapy can increase the strength and pliability of this important structural element of the body .The youthful appearance of your skin is determined in large part by the health of your connective tissue.But that't not all.How youthfully your joints, muscles,and blood vessels function also depends on the condition of your connective tissue.Since the success of several cosmetic surgery operation depends upon the strenght and elasticity of the skin, a course of cell therapy before rejuvenating surgery is good idea for older patients whose skin has lost its elasticity.

WHAT IS CELL THERAPY ?
The basic theory behind cell therapy was stated best by paracelsus ,a 16th-centery physician who wrote :"Heart heals the heart, lung heals lung , spleen heals spleen ; like cures like ."Paracelsus and many other early physicians believed that the best way to treat illness was to use living tissue to rebuild and revitalize ailing or aging tissue .Modern orthodox medicine lost sight of this method ,so it now uses chemicals to interrupt or override living processes. While chemicals and drugs work only until they are broken down by the body's metabolic processes ,cell therapy has a long-term effect, because it stimulates the body's own healing and revitalizing power.
Doctors who practice cell therapy believe the cell therapy acts like an organ transplant and actually makes the old cells to "act younger." This biological" lesson" is not quickly forgotten by the cells.
In Europe ,the effectiveness of cell therapy is widely accepted .In West Germany, for example, more than 5,000 German physicians regularly administer cell therapy injections. A great proportion of those injections are funded by the West German social security system .Several million patients the world over have received cell therapy injections since the mid-1950's.
Swiss physician Paul Niehans discovered the beneficial effects of live cell therapy quite by accident .In 1931, Niehans was summoned by a colleague who had accidentally removed a patient's parathyroid glands during the course of thyroid surgery. So vita are these glands to life that there was little chance that the woman could survive the day without them .A successful transplant was the only chance the surgeon had of saving her. So Niehans, who had a reputation for therapeutically transplanting organs and glands was called in .
On his way to the hospital ,Niehans stopped off at the abattoir ,where the animals he used in his revitalization experiments were slaughtered fresh parathyroid glands from a steer and proceeded to the hospital ,fully intending to perform a parathyroid transplant.
However ,when Niehans arrived ,one look at the patient-who was violently convulsing-told him that there was simply not enough time to perform the operation .The woman would not survive long enough.
But Niehans had an idea. He used a surgical knife to slice the steer's parathyroid glands into finer and pieces ,taking care not to mash the individual cells .He then mixed the pieces in a saline solution and loaded it into a large hypodermic needle .To the shock and dismay of his colleagues ,Niehans injected the mixture into the fatally ill woman.
Immediately ,her convulsions ceased .Her condition improved-and continued improving .To everyone's surprise ,including Niehan's she recovered .Niehans wrote ,many years later ,"I thought the effect would be short-lived ,just like the effect of an injection of hormones ,and that I should have to repeat the injection .But to my great surprise ,the injection of fresh cells not only failed to provoke a reaction but the effect lasted ,and longer than any synthetic hormone ,any implant or any surgical graft."
Longer indeed .The women went on to live another 30 years ,well into her 90s.
Thus was born cell therapy .At his Clinique La Prairie in Montreaux ,Switzerland ,Dr. Niehans went on to administer live cell injections to thousands of patients ,including many of the crowned heads , presidents ,Pope Pius XII ,and several Hollywood stars.

ANEMIA
Symptoms : Anemia ,also called iron-deficiency anemia ,occurs when there is not enough iron in the body .Without the proper amount of this mineral ,the body cannot produce adequate amounts of hemoglobin .Why does this matter? Hemoglobin is responsible for carrying tissue-nourishing oxygen from the lungs to every part of the body. Without oxygen, the body cannot function properly. A low-iron diet, heavy monthly menstrual flow,pregnancy , lead poisoning , recent blood loss, or poor iron absorption by the body can all lead to anemia. Initial signs are so mild they often go unnoticed : Greater-than-usual fatigue or slight pallor are common symptoms. Later on, the heart rate may grow faster and the sufferer may become winded more easily than usual.
How Vitamin E Can Help : Two of vitamin E's functions are to help form new red blood cells and maintain the heath of existing red blood cells, allowing them to live "a long life." While vitamin E alone cannot cure anemia, its essential role in maintaining a healthy blood supply makes it a helpful companion therapy.
Dosages : Take 10 to 200 mg of vitamin E three times daily with meals. In addition, consume daily servings of foods rich in vitamin E, such as avocados, brown rice ,dark green leafy vegetables ,nuts, oatmeal ,seeds ,soybeans ,and wheat germ.
BLOOD BOOSTER
Want to know just how important vitamin E is to a healthy blood supply ? In one study ,male adults were fed a diet containing no more than 5 IU of vitamin E daily for several years .Routine tests found that the rest subjects' hemoglobin levels were in what researchers call "a normal ,slightly low range ."Furthermore ,data showed that the red blood cells of these subjects were being destroyed about 8 to 10 percent faster than the red blood cells of the control group subjects ,who were getting higher levels of vitamin E from their diets.

Vitamin Basics
The word "vitamin" is a relatively new term. The word first appeared in dictionaries in 1912 and was coined to describe the organic substances in food essential for most chemical processes in the body .Before vitamins were discovered ,doctor recommended food itself : carrots (rich in vitamin A) to maintain vision ,citrus fruit (high in vitamin C) to prevent scurvy, and whole grains and legumes (abundant in vitamin B1) to ward off beriberi.
Scientists have identified 13 vitamin that are considered essential for health-essential because the body does not manufacture these nutrients itself. In other words, these vitamins must come either from food or from supplements. Essential vitamins are grouped into two categories : fat-soluble and water-soluble.
Essential fat-soluble vitamins include vitamins A, D, E, and K.These are stored in the body's fat to be used as needed .Because the body stockpiles fat-soluble vitamins, although this rarely occurs. Vitamin overdose can lead to various symptoms, including headaches and irritability.
The essential water-soluble vitamins are C, B, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 ,B12, folic acid, and biotin . These are not stored in the body: The body uses just what it needs at any given time and excretes the unused amount in the urine.
Two important points about vitamins. Many people believe that if they take nutritional supplements, they won't have to worry about a balanced diet . But vitamin are just that , supplements. It is important to remember that the human body absorbs vitamins from food more readily than from pills. In addition , science is rapidly discovering dozens of health-supportive phytonutrients in food that work with vitamins to promote health-and these phytonutrients are unavailable in pill form.
Another important point to remember when it comes to vitamins is that you can have too much of good thing . While large amounts of some vitamins are helpful in specific situations, too much may cause side effects that range from the merely annoying (such as dry skin or sleep disturbances) to the truly dangerous (such as liver damage).

BOTOX
When it comes to beauty, Botox, is the new buzzword today, people from all walks of life, not jest models and movie stars, have undergone Botox procedures to smoothen out frown lines and re-contour their faces.In 205, almost 3.3 million Botox procedures were performed in the united states alone.
What is Botox?
Botox is a prescription drug approved by health authorities after its ingredients have been checked for potency, purity,stability and safety.Being fairly simple and painless, Botox procedures do not require general or local anesthesia. All that needed is a cold pack or anaesthetic cream to numb the area. this entire procedure can complete in approximately five to 10 minutes, involving no downtime at all.
Managing expectations
Dr Kuladeva Ratnam, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon considers Botox procedures both an art and a science in which subtlety is key. within day pf performing Botox procedure, patients should notice a marked improvement. These changes,however, should not be so drastic as to alter the facial appearance altogether.and after this procedure, you should still be able to frown or express surprise naturally except that the facial expressions will not be marked with wrinkles and creases.
These effects usually last between four to six months, after which old wrinkles will return.But fret not, when that happens, a simple 'top-up' that can performed within two to three minutes will do the trick. According to Dr Kuladeva, 70 per cent of his patients opt for these repeat procedures.
however, as with all cosmetic procedures, results may vary greatly, so work closely with your doctor and let him what you are trying to achieve.
"It if far easier to create a mask" effect as compared to a "soft effect" Dr Kuladeva stresses. To give the procedure a "soft effect",one has to be very familiar with the facial anatomy and the many variables of the Botox procedure, including dose, replacement and administration techniques.
Debunking myths
When it comes to Botox,misconceptions abound and it really doesn't help that unscrupulous dealers makes unrealistic promises to consumers.Many of them promise the removals of lines that cannot be removed with Botox, setting consumers up for disappointment.
It must also be said that while botox procedures may seem like a fairly simple and straightforward, only quilted heath care professionals are authorised to perform them. Among them if is important to find someone with a thorough understanding of facial anatomy and sufficient experience in performing the procedure.For this reason, dermatologists, plastic surgeons and physician specialising in cosmetic procedures are your best choice.
Although rare, complications such as disproportionate movement, allergic reactions and contraindications have been known to happen. Poorly performed procedures may also result in extended lines, the 'mask effect' or bruising. So always do your homework, talk to a professional and ask to see what is being injected into your face.

Acne - A Clean Face -
by: rudy silva
For those that need more than a special cream like Scotty's Face Cream, then you need to work harder to get rid of acne. Since acne is a condition that occurs from within your body and exhibits on the outside of your body, you need to,
* Attack acne from inside your body
* Attack acne from outside your body
If your acne is not to severe, all you might need is a good cream and need only to follow a few steps in my 12 step program to get you past the periods where acne is active.
If your acne is more severe, than you may have to follow my 12-step program, since acne is an expression of your whole body system and is a reflection of what is going on inside your mind, cell structure and internal organs.
Acne is an excessive toxic condition within your body, which the internal elimination organs are unable to eliminate. So your toxins are moved into your blood and excreted through your skin. It is an automatic survival mechanism your body initiates in an effort to protect the insides of your body - cells, liquid, blood, organs, and tissues.
There are 12 areas that you need to look at,
* Keep your face clean
* Using Scotty's acne face cream or your favorite face cream
* Relive your constipation and the tree day liquid fast
* Making changes to your diet
* Get plenty of sun, air, and water
* Vitamins you need to be taking
* Minerals you should be taking
* Special supplements to take
* Herbal mixture to use or drink
* Special detoxifying drinks or supplements to take
* Brushing your skin
* Change your attitude
Step 1: Keeping your face clean
If you use face cosmetics, you need to stop. Some cosmetics irritate the skin and can cause acne by plugging up your pores on your face. The cosmetics chemicals that can cause you the most skin and pore irritation and inflammation are:
mineral oil
lanolin
parabens
propylene glycol
Look at the label of the cosmetics you use. You will find that many cosmetics, soaps, and sunscreens contain these chemicals.
Find a water base make up, not an oil base. Find one that does not irritate your face and use it sparingly
When you wash your face don't use any commercial soaps since they are filled with chemicals that will irritate and worsen your acne condition. And don't excessive wash your face as this will dry your skin of the natural protective oil. Also, don't keep touching your face since you spread or add bacteria to it.
To wash your face use only,
* Castile hand or liquid soap
* Pure glycerin hand soap
You can pat your face with a clean hot face towel to bring circulation to your face and to help open and move the toxic material, in the pimple, to the surface. Do not scrub hard to burst a pimple but just scrub lightly to burst a pimple when it is ready to open.
Use the hot towel application only 2-3 times per week.
When a pimple is open do not continue to rub or scrub it. In fact do not pick or scratch an open pimple since this could create other sores or leave scars that are difficult to remove. Just washing your face with clean soap will keep your face free of toxic matter.
Keep in mind,
Whatever you put on your skin will move into your skin and into your bloodstream.
Most commercial creams, lotions, and soaps are filled with all kinds of chemicals that are toxic to your body. By using them you are making your liver work harder.
During the day or at night avoid resting your cheeks or chin on your hand(s) or arm(s). This can irritate your face and cause acne to breakout. When you sleep, try to sleep on your back and not with your face or side of the face into your pillowMalaysia Premium Gifts

Acne - An Introduction
by: rudy silva
Acne is the most common skin disorder. Over 10% of Americans age 25 - 44 have acne. Over 85% Americans age 12 - 25 will have acne at one time or the other.
If ignored, acne can become infected, create scars, and pockmarks that become permanent on your face. I don't want this to happen to you, so I have written a series of articles on how to clear your acne.
Acne Is a Disease
Acne is a disease called seborrhea or seborrheic dermatitis. It occurs when the sebaceous glands, under your skin, become contaminated with oily toxic matter, which contains,
* dirt
* dead skin
* excess sebum oil
* acid waste
* bacteria
* toxic matter
Under normal conditions the sebaceous glands release oil that comes up through your pores onto the skin surface. This release keeps your skin moist and lubricated for protection from the environment.
If your pores on your face are not open or plugged, this creates toxic oil that cannot move out onto your skin. This results in a growth or pimple that start to increase in size as more toxic oil tries to reach the surface of your skin.
If the pore walls burst under the skin, white blood cells move in to digest the collagen around the pores. When this happens, you will have scars on your face.
To avoid having scars, you need to start an acne-clearing program before you get acne or just as soon as you see acne coming so that your pimples and back heads don't get to the point where they get severely infected and burst.
Clearing Your Acne
Acne is a complex condition that involves many parts of the body even though it shows up as only eruptions on the face and else where on your skin. It is a signal that you have problems elsewhere deep within your body. Acne can be caused by a toxic colon, poor digestion of food, weak liver and other conditions that cause the blood to carry too much toxicity.
To clear acne it is not always possible to just do one thing and expect acne to go away. But it may be possible to just use a special cream and have your acne diminish or clear.
Acne may go away by just doing one thing but don't expect it to. A facial cream, diet, herbal treatment, and colon cleanse alone may not be able to clear acne. A combination may or may not work.

A Natural Approach To Managing Acne
Almost everyone has suffered from acne at one time or another in his or her lives. It is primarily a disorder of the sebaceous gland (glands in the skin that secrete an oily substance) of the face, the neck and back. When the sebaceous glands become clogged with the oily substance they create, the accumulation results in pimples. There are several forms of acne, but the most common is acne vulgaris, found primarily in adolescents.
The exact cause of acne is not known, but factors that contribute to this condition include heredity, oily skin and androgens. Additional factors include allergies, stress, the use of certain drugs, nutritional deficiencies, liver dysfunction, exposure to industrial pollutants, cosmetics and the monthly menstrual cycle.
In addition, the skin functions to eliminate a portion of the body’s toxic waste by sweating. If the body contains more toxins than the kidneys or liver can effectively discharge, the skin takes over. In fact, some doctors call the skin the 3rd kidney. As toxins escape through the skin, they can disrupt the health and integrity of the skin, creating issues.
Recommendations for Wellness
Note: Some of these recommendations may take 2-4 weeks before any results or improvements are experienced.
Apply distilled white vinegar (can be diluted if too strong) to the face and affected areas. Allow this to sit for 5-10 minutes before rinsing off with cool water.
Lemon or any citric fruit works great as a natural exfoliate, removing dead skin cells that may clog the pours. As with the white vinegar, apply the juice of a lemon (or desired citric juice) to the face. Allow it to dry for about 10 minutes, then rinse with cool water. You may feel a mild sting or burn when the lemon juice is applied. If so, diluting the juice is acceptable.
Increase water consumption. Water helps flush toxin out and help transport nutrients in the body.
Eat a properly balanced diet to ensure proper nutrition.
Take a high quality multiple vitamin and mineral supplement to make up for nutrients missing in today’s foods.
Echinacea or Oregon grape can be used to boost the immune system and fight acne-causing bacteria.
Dandelion, Burdock or red clover can help to keep the liver clear of toxic overload.
Herbal combinations such as Natures Sunshine's Ayurvedic Skin Detox and BP-X can also be used to cleanse and detoxify the liver and reduce acne.
Historically, large quantities of vitamin A have been successfully used to treat severe acne. Large amounts, however, can be toxic and should be used when working with your health care provider.
Consider adding additional zinc to your diet. Zinc aids in the healing of tissues and assists in preventing scarring. It is also important for the body in resisting infection and inflammation.
To clear and heal the skin, try a homeopathic Acne remedy. It can help to dry up pimples & prevent future outbreaks
