FAILURE TO THRIVE is a term used to describe an infant that falls below expected growth rtes. Celiac disease and/or other food allergies and cystic fibrosis should be considered as the most common cause. Plant derived colloidal minerals are of great value here as most of these children are severely depleted in trace minerals and rare earths.
FARTING (bowel gas) is usually caused by digested but poorly absorbed food reaching the colon and being fermented by bowel organisms. Some foods such as beans, garlic, and onions are legendary for their production of bowel gas. Food sensitivities to wheat, wheat gluten, and dairy can cause celiac disease type changes in the small intestine, which results in malabsorption. The unabsorbed proteins reach the colon and are the source of sulfur that smells like rotten eggs.
Treatment for pathological amount of unpleasant bowel gas includes the avoidance of offending foods and betain HCl and pancreatic enzymes at 75-200 mg t.i.d. 15-20 minutes before meals where food allergies have caused celiac disease type changes in small intestine.
FATIGUE (chronic fatigue syndrome, Candidiasis, Epstein-Barr Virus, cytomegalovirus, human herpes 6 virus, human B lymphotrophic virus, food allergies, hypoglycemia, diabetes, anemia, malnutrition) is the disease of the 80s. See specific disease description.
Treatment should be specific as described in appropriate section, and in addition, herbs may be of value including American ginseng (Panax quinquefolius), lavender (Lavandula augustifolia), rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis), sweet flag (Acorus calamus), and pasque flower (Anemone pulsatilia). Avoid all sugar natural and processed, avoid soft drinks, and avoid fried foods, margarine, and caffeine. Take all 90 essential nutrients as a daily supplement to ensure that there are no nutritional deficiencies.
FERTILITY (problems) that are not related to physical blockage of egg or sperm transport systems are usually the result of some form of malnutrition, either overt (i.e., diet fads) or secondary to food allergies and/or malabsorption. One also must be sure that the woman is cycling and ovulating properly (i.e., slim women with less than 20 percent body fat do not ovulate regularly). Infertility usually means that the condition can be reversed whereas sterility usually means permanent nonreversible conditions. Do hair analysis and pulse test.
My oldest daughter and her husband had desperately been trying to have a child for 12 years and tried all the in vitro techniques with no results. She was brought to tears when she was told that she was "hopelessly sterile". I finally was able to get her to supplement with all 90 nutrients while she waited for adoption paper work to be processed. In just three months she was pregnant! It is amazing what a little nutrition will do.
Treatment of this form of infertility includes the base line nutritional supplement. Pay special attention to selenium deficiency in male infertility, betaine (HCl and pancreatic enzymes at 75-200 mg t.i.d. before meals, correction of quality animal protein intake to a minimum of 100 gm/day (the RDA is only 40 gm/day), and essential fatty acids at 5 gm t.i.d.
FEVER or elevated temperature (normal is 98.6ºF) is part of the body's defense mechanism. Many enzymes, antibodies, and cell (WBCs) responses are more efficient in slightly elevated temperatures. Elevated temperature during the day is not bad per se but should be reduced at night to allow comfortable sleep. Infants with high fevers of 104ºF or above may have convulsions, which must be prevented or reduced quickly by immersion in tepid water.
Treatment of fever can include a number of commercial products including a number of commercial products including aspirin, Tylenol, Nuprin, etc. Ice packs on the forehead, running cool water over the wrists, cool baths, and herbs to include feverfew (Chrysanthemum parthenium), meadow-sweet (Filipendula ulmaria), sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides), European holly (Ilex aquifolium), white willow (Salix alba), mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), and cinchona bark (Cinchona succiruba) can be used. Obviously, all of the above are symptomatic treatments. The basic disease process (i.e., cold, flu, pneumonia, cancer, etc.) must also be dealt with forthrightly with fluids (chicken soup), herbal tea, and tomato juice.
FIBROIDS are a runaway production of fibrous connective tissue and smooth muscle cells of the wall of the uterus. There are no agreed upon nutritional preventions or nutritional deficiencies that cause uterine fibroids. Looking at the tissue, however, there are certain similarities between fibroid tissue and the early changes of arteriosclerosis in the walls of muscular arteries and fibrocystic breast disease, giving some clues as to best approach uterine fibroids naturally. We know that eliminating caffeine and the supplementation of vitamin E and selenium enhance the healing process of fibrocystic breast disease.
Treatment of uterine fibroids should include avoidance of fried foods, margarine, and caffeine, as well as supplementation with all 90 essential nutrients. Crank up the magnesium level to 1,000 mg per day, vitamin E level to 2,000 i.u., and the selenium level to 500 mcg per day. If satisfactory results are not achieved in four to six months, one can consider the use of Luperon (posterior pituitary hormone sold originally to dry up milk supply). The fibroids will shrink sufficiently to remove them with endoscopic surgery without the need for a hysterectomy. The side effects of Luperon treatment include temporary induced menopause that reverses after withdrawal of the drug.
FIBROCYSTIC BREAST DISEASE is cosmetically unpleasant and often painful during peak estrogen production. Cysts may vary in size from pea size to grapes and occasionally larger. Prevention and treatment are the same course of action.
Treatment of fibrocystic breast disease includes avoiding methyl xanthines (i.e., caffeine, coffee, black tea, ice tea, carbonated soft drinks with caffeine, chocolate, sugar etc.), avoiding margarine and fried foods (avoid trans fatty acids and free radicals), vitamin E at 800-1,200 IU/day, vitamin A at 300,000 IU/day as beta carotene, essential fatty acids at 5 gm t.i.d., iodine at 200 mcg/day, and selenium at 500 mcg/day.
FIBROMYALGIA (stiff lamb disease, white muscle disease, adult onset muscular dystrophy) is a disease that was eliminated from lambs, calves, and pits in 1957. It is a multiple deficiency disease caused by a high intake of fried foods and vegetable oils (margarine, cooking oils, and salad dressing) and deficiencies of selenium, vitamin E, and sulfur amino acids (methionine, mysteine, cystene).
Treatment includes eliminating all vegetable oils and fried foods (be sure to supplement EFA at 9 grams per day since you are cutting back on oils) and supplementation with selenium at 300 mcg/day, vitamin E 1200 i.u. /day, and an amino acid program that includes methionine, cysteine, and cystine. Use Dr. Wallach's Pig Arthritis Formula.
FINGERNAILS (white spots, ridges, brittle) are good barometers of absorption and nutritional status. Bluish fingernails indicate chronic lung conditions (i.e., not enough oxygen); white spots indicate zinc deficiency; ridges can indicate iron and/or calcium deficiency; brittle nails indicates sulfur amino acid and protein deficiencies. Don't forget the base line nutritional supplements with all 90 essential nutrients.
Treatment of fingernail problems should include collagen (Willamette Valley which is 100 percent Kosher beef, diabetic Jell-O or Knox gelatin -- this is especially important for those who have been vegetarians for any length of time), essential fatty acids at 5 gm t.i.d., and betaine HCl and pancreatic enzymes at 75-200 mg t.i.d. before meals.
