If your feet are cold and your legs chilled, the pain is often worse. A good pair of trousers, warm boots, or a thick skirt and two petticoats are good investments. I’m well aware there are still employers and headmasters who lay down rules about clothes. Some actually ban girls wearing trousers; others take exception to boots. We have a long way to go before we win the freedom to wear whatever is most suitable and practical.
Helpful foods-Oranges, bananas and tomatoes are particularly useful around the time of your period because they help replace the potassium your body may have lost if you have been taking diuretics to help get rid of the bloat. And if you feel tired or giddy it’s a good idea to have a small stock of sugary foods handy, like glucose tablets, boiled sweets, barley sugar or grapes. Things to keep clear of are those tempting salty snacks like crisps or salted peanuts. They encourage your body to retain water and give you a thirst. If you drink more fluid than you need you are far more likely to get waterlogged. Incidentally, if you suffer from the bloat, drinking black coffee could help because it is a mild diuretic.

Based on native American Indian and other native people recipes, published by Hulda Regher Clark (see the References)
Herbs:
1. black walnut hulls – from the black walnut tree. Use water based tincture. Use 10-20 drops each time.
2. wormwood – from the Artemisia absynthium shrub. Buy it for your garden. It has been named for a good reason long time ago and it is mentioned in many ancient scripts, including the Bible. Take one dried leaf in a teaspoon of honey each time.
3. common cloves – from the clove tree. This is a common spice used in baking. Grind your own fresh cloves (not stored for a long time). Use a small amount of ground powder mixed with a fruit juice – a tip of the teaspoon is enough.
Taken together, these herbs help to eliminate over 100 common parasites in humans.
Black walnut hull and wormwood help to eliminate adult parasites as well as their various development stages. Cloves eliminates eggs. This is the only known method to eliminate parasite eggs.
Use the combination of above herbs 3 times a day before meals for a few days. For more information read books by Hulda Regher Clark.
After eliminating parasites, we should take care not to create favourite conditions to them again. Attention to detoxification and the diet should be our strategy.

I make no claim, that I developed anything new. All the techniques listed in this book are known and proven for thousands of years.
Modern scientific evidence, summarised in this book to convince its readers is taken directly from books and articles published by many talented, dedicated, honest medical practitioners and scientists, who are not afraid of telling the TRUTH.
In particular, I would like to express my gratitude to Hulda Regehr Clark, Arthur Baker, Deepak Chopra and Sheldon Saul Hendler for their wonderful books.
I am grateful to Dr Vagif Sultanov, for his inspiring public lecture about fasting.
I am also grateful to Ed McCabe, a reporter, for bringing to the attention of the general public (mine included) oxygen therapies, against considerable opposition of the medical establishment and the media.
It would be impossible for me to collect quickly the scientific evidence I needed without access to the Australian NEXUS magazine, which has published great articles as well as summaries and reviews of many interesting and original books. I salute all those people associated with NEXUS. You are doing a great job.
I would like to express my gratitude to Nick Haritos, who corrected the manuscript.

No matter what difficulties you suffer when you’re having your period, there are plenty of steps you can take to make life as pleasant as possible.
Clean is comfortable-It seems much too obvious to mention, but you won’t be comfortable unless you wash regularly and change sanitary towels or tampons whenever necessary.
This can be a problem, particularly if you’re at work; how nice it would be if there were a bidet in the women’s lavatory in every work place. As it is, the best we can do is to carry a supply of towels or tampons with us and change them whenever we need to, which could be anything from two to five times during a working day, depending on how much blood we lose and how long our day happens to be.
I’m often asked how much blood women ought to lose and what colour it ought to be. We vary in this. Some women lose very little — just enough to stain two towels a day — especially when they first start their periods. Others lose quite a lot, especially on the first day when they can get through half a packet of towels. Some blood is quite red; some is quite brown. Don’t be alarmed by either colour. They’re both normal; just be sure that you don’t wear the same towel or tampon all day long.

Some may argue, that the diet proposed below is quite different from the traditional diet we learned from our parents, friends and neighbours. So many people have followed-”traditional” diet for generations !
Maybe that’s exactly why we live on average only 72 years, most of this time getting sick or expecting disease, and by the age of 65 or earlier having major health problems.
We simply follow bad habits.
Many people follow their habits and tradition without any criticism, just because they do not want any change or they do not want to be different from others.
Sometimes it is quite difficult to find any logic at all. For example some women, who seem to be quite health conscious, are ready to put almost anything on their faces just to look better (?) for a few hours. On the other hand, they would not even consider giving up their dinners, steaks, alcohol or perfumes to truly improve their health.
In the ancient literature we can find evidence, that many thousands of years ago people lived in good health for at least several hundred years.
Modern science is still looking for reasons why our lifespan is so short.

The name ringworm is misleading, because the ailment to which it refers is not caused by a worm. It is in fact a form of tinea, a fungal infection, and is also known as tinea circinata. The name refers to the fact that it causes a raised ring-shaped inflammation of the skin. Ringworms are most commonly found in warm, moist areas of the body such as the armpits, groin, and beneath the breasts. The skin becomes inflamed and tends to flake and peel. Ringworms can be intensely itchy and are highly contagious.
To avoid spreading the infection, care should be taken to avoid sharing clothing, towels and bedlinen. Keeping the skin dry will prevent further growth of the fungus.
Tea tree oil applied directly to the area is often beneficial. Antifungal ointments and powders are also available from chemists without prescription. Garlic, either eaten fresh or in the form of capsules, may also help the infection clear up.
Dietary habits which may help to reduce the incidence of ringworm and other fungal infections include the elimination of refined starches and sugars and alcohol from the diet, as fungi thrive on these foods. Diabetics are particularly prone to ringworm when their sugar levels are high.

The margin of the pupil, pars iridica retinae, in its dilatation, colour, shape and plasticity, is a reflection of the central nervous system. One which is of delicate appearance, of reddish-brown colour and with a uniform edge, is to be regarded as normal. To enumerate the varieties of individual form and colour is beyond the scope of the present work.
Any signs in the corresponding sector of the iris should be interpreted in association with all phenomena affecting the margin of the pupil. As stated elsewhere, signs which displace or break through the iris-wreath refer to the vegetative nervous system. If such signs go out from the pupil or go through to reach the pupil, they refer to the central nervous system. Where signs relating to the organ areas extend to the pupillary margin, an edge-sign will be found. This sign differs in form and colour according to the nature of the disturbance.
One must always bear in mind that the eye represents a unity, and should be considered in its entirety. From this it follows that neither the edge of the pupil nor the peripheral margin of the iris alone can provide the basis for any diagnosis.

The pupil as such is entirely dependent upon the function of the iris. Therefore, all reactions and conditions of the pupil are to be considered basically as no more than changes affecting the inner margin of the iris. For the irisdiagnostician, however, only those abnormal conditions are significant which by paralysis or irritation of the nerves controlling the muscles of the iris, produce changes in the function or state of the pupil. (M. sphincter pupillae = pupil contraction and M. dilatator pupillae = pupil dilation.) Consequently, all those disturbances which are caused by local injuries or other conditions of the eyeball are to be ignored.
The normal shape of the pupil is circular. It should lie in the centre of the iris (perhaps somewhat disposed towards the nasal side), and appear neither too large nor too small under ordinary conditions of lighting. The normal diameter is 3-4 mm. On the whole, relatively larger pupils are found in small children, while in adults the size of the pupil progressively diminishes as old age advances.
The pupil should not show any undue variation in width, and the movements of contraction and dilation should affect both pupils symmetrically.

Disturbance of consciousness in syncope is due to failure of blood supply to the brain, due in part to a fall in cardiac output. Cardiac output may also be less than normal if the rhythm of the heart is abnormal. Both very slow and very fast heart rates diminish cardiac output.
The distinction of a disturbance of consciousness due to an abnormality of cardiac rhythm from a seizure is not easy. Occasionally, though, a bystander will note that someone is pulseless or has a very irregular pulse during the attack, and sometimes the sufferer himself notices palpitations before disturbance of consciousness. Cardiac rhythm is easily monitored by electrocardiography. The changes in voltage associated with contraction of the different chambers of the heart are of sufficient amplitude that they can easily be recorded on a cassette recorder for periods of 24 hours, and their occurrence in relation to symptoms analysed. A cardiac cause for disturbance of consciousness has been found in up to one quarter of cases first presenting to neurological clinics with blackouts.

Bending over beds, heaving a vacuum cleaner around, dusting in corners and standing cooking in the kitchen are all ingredients that add up to a recipe for increased risk of back strain and other muscle pain.
It’s easy to mistreat your body as you give the carpet a clean -twisting from the waist to get the vacuum cleaner into position can harm the back and strain the arms. Keep the handle close to your body and use the machine’s wheels to move it around.
Beds are usually designed for the benefit of the sleeper, not the one who has to change the sheets. To make changing bed linen safer, don’t lean over to the other side to tuck sheets in, but go round to do it. Similarly, pictures are designed to be looked at, not cleaned; floors to be trodden on, not bent down to for cleaning. But a long-handled duster and brooms used with an upright back, with the handle held close to the body, will help you avoid strains.
The height of work surfaces such as ironing-boards and kitchen units is also important to avoid uncomfortable bending. The most efficient height is usually 2-4 inches below elbow height. In fact, ironing is often best done sitting down, with the chair close to the board.
