Overweight and obesity

E-mail Print PDF

Drainage (body cleansing) is usually the first stage of therapy in our patients. In combination with dieting, exercising and positive thinking, it forms the canon of natural therapies. It may be applied by means of physical treatments, herbal infusions, fasting, meditation etc.

Due to the more and more common block of metabolic mechanisms and endocrine glands, it is sometimes difficult to achieve the desired result. When this is the case, the homeopathic drainage works out perfectly

Overweight and obesity – integrative approach
by Anna Komorowska, medical doctor; Emilia Lorenc, molecular biologist and medical analyst; Marek Lorenc, medical doctor and Licensed Associate of the Faculty of Homeopathy (LFHom).

The problem of overweight and obesity is now widely discussed. The fashion for slimness, on the one hand, and the global obesity epidemic, on the other hand, form the backdrop of this debate. A large variety of weight-loss programmes and a wide spectrum of diets result, however, in total confusion. It is really difficult to find something appropriate for oneself.


The approach proposed in this paper is a synthesis of academic theory of obesity and metabolic disorders, and a few correlative strands of complementary and alternative medicine: homeopathy, homo-toxicology, isopathy and traditional Chinese medicine. The presented concept is successfully implemented in many centres of integrative medicine throughout the world. (...)

Our health vs. mobile phone

Our health vs. mobile phone
an article from the section "Lorenc on Health www.dolinainformacji.pl

The world mobile connections amount to an unimaginable number. One in three people on the globe is covered by the cellular network field. For many years doctors have been reflecting on how this phenomenon may affect our health. What is the potential, long-lasting impact of the widespread mobile phone use on the humankind? Each mobile emits a low frequency electro-magnetic field which provokes a feeling of tiredness, negatively affects our immune system, causes fertility and sexual function disorders (both in men and women), lesions of circulatory system, heart-rate and nervous system disorders, memory, cognitive functions and concentration debilitation, blood pressure elevation and erythrocytes damage (according to the Academy of Aesthetic and Anti-Aging Medicine, June 2010).


As the number of cell network users is constantly growing, the aforementioned negative results of this phenomenon slowly become epidemic. Certainly, keeping mobile phone close to the body should be avoided. Obviously, in the first place it refers to holding a mobile phone close to the head, but we should also avoid carrying our cell phones in pockets of shirts, jackets or trousers. Our brain is well protected by skull bones, therefore the penetration of the cellular signal to its soft tissues is much less intensive. On the other hand, such organs as heart, liver, kidneys, sex gonads and intestines are highly exposed. Exposition to the radiation grows if a person is wearing metal frame spectacles (of around 20% in the eyes area and 6.3% in the head area – due to a report of House of Commons Science and Technology Committee).

What causes great concern is the link of mobile phone use to cancer incidence. The observations on a group of  1.429 patients suffering from malignant or benign brain tumors, conducted by the team of the University Hospital in Orebro, proved that amongst inhabitants of rural areas who used mobile phones for more than 3 years, brain tumors were diagnosed 3 times more frequently than in a corresponding urban group. After 5 years of cell phone use, country people  presented 4 times higher risk of brain cancer. Another group of elevated risk are employees of special services. Continuously carrying cell phones in their lumbar area, they are highly susceptible to colorectal cancer (a report of the Economic Commission).

Although the intensity of electromagnetic field recently came to fame, in daily life we are completely unaware of this problem, it is still good to remember, therefore, that since the invention of transistor radio, TV and computer, we have more and more „electromagnetic smog” at our homes. And sometimes one drop may be enough to overfill a bowl.

To sum up, it would be best not to use mobile phones at all (as well as fridges, computers etc :)).

However, if we really have to, it is good to do it with reason and moderation:
- when possible, keep your mobile as far as possible from your body and turn it screen-side to your body
- before you raise a mobile phone to your head, wait for the receiver to get the call
- use a loudspeaker system
- do not use your mobile when moving fast in the country, especially at the boundaries of coverage area, where your phone emits maximum radiation.

Allergy

E-mail Print PDF

Allergy (hypersensitivity) is defined as an abnormal, excessive or disturbed response of the immune system to various foreign substances called allergens, resulting in damage of body's own tissues.
The most important types of this sensitivity are the following:

Type I hypersensitivity
is a reaction involving IgE antibodies. The reaction happens immediately (within a few minutes to a few hours). The antigen (an allergenic product) binds to IgE antibody. The resulting antigen-antibody complex activates mast cells, which release inflammatory mediators, amongst others histamine. The symptoms include: skin redness, blisters, hives, itching, sneezing, vomiting, diarrhea, circulation disorder, anaphylactic shock.

Type II hypersensitivity (or cytotoxic hypersensitivity) is a reaction  involving IgM and IgG antibodies, resulting in damage of body's own tissues in consequence of killing foreign cells or cells which carry new antigens on their surface. Examples of type II allergy are hemolytic anemia in newborn, transfusion reactions and Hashimoto thyroiditis.

Type III hypersensitivity is caused by body's immune responses. This type of allergy is related to IgG antibodies, defense reactions are delayed and appear from 8 to 72 hours after exposure to the foreign substance.

Type IV hypersensitivity (known as tuberculin-type, delayed hypersensitivity) – is a cellular reaction involving lymphocytes T.  Examples of this allergy include contact and granulomatous hypersensitivity.
