JAUNDICE (icterus, yellow eyes) can be caused by blockage of the bile duct system in the liver (gallstones, tumor, hepatitis), and/or destruction of RBC's (Rh factor, blood parasites-malaria). Diagnosis is a critical problem when jaundice is present. Examining the whites of the eye (sclera) will reveal jaundice by the presence of a yellow coloration which is absent when the skin is yellow from high beta carotene consumption. Blood tests will differentiate between obstruction (i.e., elevated bilirubin -- above 2.0-2.5 %) and RBC destruction (i.e., unconjugated or indirect bilirubin are elevated).
Treatment of jaundice includes exposure to ultraviolet light to speed up elimination of bile pigments, liver flush (three days of an apple juice fast sipping through the day as needed followed by a cup of olive oil and a cup of lemon juice), vitamin C to bowel tolerance, vitamin A at 300,000 IU/day as beta-carotene, selenium at 500-1,000 mcg/day, vitamin E at 800-1,200 IU/day, and herbs including licorice (Glycyrrhiza glabra), agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria), celadine (Chelidonium majus), and chionanthus (Chionanthus virginica).
JOINT PAIN can be caused by a variety of disease processes including arthritis, osteoporosis, rickets, gout, obesity, and various nutritional deficiencies (i.e., calcium, magnesium, manganese, sulfur, sulfur bearing amino acids, and copper) and food allergies/sensitivities.
Treatment of joint pain includes the correction of any overt or overlying disease (arthritis, osteoporosis), calcium and magnesium at 2,000 and 1,000 mg per day, cartilage at 5 gm t.i.d., gelatin (unsweetened) once per day, copper at 2-5 mg/day (a copper bracelet can be of great value), B6 at 100 mg t.i.d., mineral bath hydrotherapy and ultra violet light exposure at 1-6 minutes; symptomatic treatment of joint pain includes pain gels, DMSO, and acupuncture. Avoid soft drinks, fried food, margarine, and sugar. Take Dr. Wallach's Pig Arthritis Formula twice each day. Chiropractic can be of great value in treating and providing symptomatic relief of a variety of joint problems including subluxation of the spine, ribs, and pelvis.
KEGEL'S EXERCISE is a great way to condition the voluntary muscles of the pelvic floor in both males and females. This exercise is useful for prenatal conditioning of the pelvic muscles, vaginal muscles, and urethral muscles in both male and female for urinary incontinence and urgency. To perform the Kegel's exercise you tighten the muscles of the pelvic floor as if you were trying to stop a bowel movement. You can also add the variation of stopping your urine at will as often as you can. Try to do several hundred each day.
KERATOMALACIA (xerophthalmia) is recognized as a hazy bluish dry cornea (the domed clear bulge on the front of the eye) that becomes ulcerated. Symptoms include extreme dryness of the eyes with blinking in attempts to keep the eyes moist, conjunctivitis, and night blindness. Fat-like spots (Bitots spots) can be found on the white of the eyeball. Untreated keratomalacia can result in permanent blindness.
KERATOSIS is a goose bump-like keratin build up in the openings of the hair follicles. These pinhead-sized plugs are found in greatest numbers on the backs of the arms, thighs, and buttocks. The orthodox doctors claim that treatment is unnecessary, however, keratosis is, in fact, a symptom of a chronic vitamin A deficiency.
Treatment of keratosis includes vitamin A at 25,000 IU as beta-carotene (kids) to 300,000 IU (adults) per day as beta-carotene and zinc at 5 to 15 mg. t.i.d. Increase protein at 120 gms per day, and don't forget the base line nutrition program.
KERNICTERUS is the depositing of bile pigments into the brain of newborn children after an extended elevation of bilirubin (bile pigments produced from RBC breakdown). Symptoms mimic those of cerebral palsy (i.e., lethargy, poor feeding, vomiting, uncoordination, seizures, and death). Prevention and treatment of kernicterus includes frequent feeding of the infant to reduce absorption of bile pigments and exposure to blue and ultra violet light to photo-oxidize bilirubin. Note: transient lactose intolerance is associated with light therapy in infants that results in diarrhea -- this does not appear to have any permanent consequences.
KETOACIDOSIS (ketosis) results from a low glucose supply to the liver, which forces it to metabolize fat. The resulting by-products are "ketone bodies" (i.e., acetoacetic acid, B-hydroxyburytic acid, and starvation. The breath will smell like acetone, nausea and vomiting will occur, along with air hunger, confusion or coma, extreme thirst, and weight loss. A positive urine "dipstick" for ketone bodies is an easy way to confirm your suspicions.
Treatment of ketosis includes resolving the basic disease process (i.e., diabetes, hypoglycemia, alcoholism, starvation, etc.), increasing the complex carbohydrate intake, chromium and vanadium at 50-200 mcg t.i.d., and the base line nutritional program.
KIDNEY DISEASE (kidney stones, malignant calcification) can be caused by a variety of infections, toxins, and nutritional excesses (i.e., hypervitaminosis D) and deficiencies (i.e., deficiencies of vitamin A, magnesium, calcium, selenium, and zinc). Kidney disease can be secondary to cardiovascular disease or diabetes. Kidney stones, contrary to popular belief by the orthodox doctor, are caused by calcium from your bones, which is the source of the calcium found in kidney stones. Prevention of kidney stones includes adequate levels of supplementary calcium and magnesium (impossible to get enough from your diet especially if you are a big consumer of phosphorus -- meat and carbonated soft drinks). Deficiencies of magnesium results in malignant calcification, a deposition of calcium in the small elastic and muscular arteries typically found in the kidney. Excess vitamin D (suntanning, fish oil, and supplementation) concurrently with calcium deficiency will accelerate the depletion and, thus, increase the risk of kidney stones. Also check for cadmium toxicity with a hair analysis.
Treatment of kidney disease and kidney stones should include supplementation of calcium and magnesium at 2,000 mg and 1,000 mg per day, reduction of your phosphorus intake, adequate vitamin A nutriture at 25,000-300,000 IU, vitamin A per day as beta-carotene, B6 at 50 mg t.i.d., lysine and glutamic acid, and herbs including dandelion (Taraxacum officinale), dwarf elder (Sambucus ebulus), goldenrod (Solidago virgaurea), Java tea (Orthosiphon stamineus), parsley (Petro Selinum crispum), horsetail (Equisetum spp.), mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), and unsweetened cranberry juice. Chelation therapy with EDTA may help kidney disease that is secondary to cardiovascular disease and cadmium toxicity. An acute or sudden kidney stone blockage may require the pain relief of morphine as it can be excruciating. You may also wish to use prednisone for three days to reduce the inflammation in the ureter (the tube from the kidney to the bladder) so that you can pass stones. Stones lodged in the kidney can be reduced to harmless powder by a machine known as a lithotripter, an ultra sound machine that actually shatters the stones without surgery.
KORSAKOFF'S SYNDROME (recent memory loss, false Alzheimer's Disease) is characterized by an inability to record and store new memory. The patient can perform detailed tasks learned before onset but cannot learn the simples of new tasks. This type of amnesia can result from a blow to the head or be the result of chronic alcoholism and vitamin B1 deficiency associated with an excess intake of simple carbohydrate and sugar. Confabulation or producing imaginary experiences for those that cannot be recalled is a consistent feature of Korsakoff's syndrome. If the disease is the result of a blow to the head, there is a good chance of a gradual recovery; If the brain tissue has been damaged by alcoholism (Wernecke-Korsakoff's Syndrome) or chronic vitamin B1 deficiency, the process may be difficult to treat.
Treatment of Korsakoff's syndrome includes Iv chelation, hydrogen peroxide IV, vitamin B1 at 100 mg t.i.d., lecithin at 2,500 mg. t.i.d., avoidance of alcohol and sugar, chromium and vanadium at 50-200 mcg t.i.d., betaine HCI and pancreatic enzymes at 75-200 mg t.i.d. before meals, hydergine at 4.5-9 mg/day, vasopressin (Diapid) at 12-16 units per day as a nasal spray, centrophenoxine at 4.4-8.0 gm per day, and piracetam (Dinagen) at 1.6-4.8 gm per day. This is the drug treatment program used to restore Princess Di's bodyguard's memory.
KWASHIORKOR (protein starvation) is thought of as a disease of African children. It is classed as protein/calorie starvation and is characterized by a distended bloated belly, edema and dropsy because low blood protein levels can't hold water in the blood vessels so it simply leaks out. By now you will recognize that this happens to unschooled dieters, cancer patients, vegans and fruitarians who take in less than optimal amounts of complete proteins. Don't forget the base line nutritional supplementation.
Treatment of Kwashiorkor includes adequate intake of complete animal protein (i.e., greater than 120 gms per day), a calorie intake of 3,000 calories per day, selenium at 200 mcg per day and chromium and vanadium at 50-200 mcg t.i.d. Don't forget the 90 essential nutrients here.
