Overcoming Asthma The Natural Way

There are so many benefits of Virgin Coconut Oil. Some of them are the following:
1. Prevent heart disease
2. Skin care
3.Weight loss
4. Immunity
5. Digestion
6. Candida / Asthma
7. Healing and Infections

From the list, let's extract one of the most important, the Candida in relation to Asthma. Asthma had been a plague to our family. My son was diagnosed with it when he was 6 months old (he's now 9 years old). And then we were frequent guests in the hospital literally month on month. Not only that it slowly drained us financially, but it also caused so much struggle on him. It went on until he's 3.5 years old and became accustomed in holding his own mask while on nebulization ( I'm still trying to find his picture of it). He actually looked cute with that but I know he had so much difficulty inside, and I felt it. As a mother, my child's distress is twice or thrice as much impinged on me. The medicines gave him temporary relief but when triggers appear the hospital admission followed next. Until one day, we attended a Food Supplement Orientation in Unlimited Network of Opportunities International Corp. (UNO) about the product VCO (Virgin Coconut Oil).  We found out how powerful it is and what it can do to our son. That night, we decided to stop all his maintenance (by the way, he was already on seretide, montelaukast and a readily available complete set of Ventolin Nebule and Ventolin expectorant then in the fridge plus our own nebulizer!). It was a tough decision on our part thinking that if we will abruptly stop his maintenance he might be attacked again and we will have o send him to the hospital again. It was an experiment only tough love can bring. We have to do it, we thought. Otherwise he will suffer for the rest of his life and will hinder his growth and development. That night we gave him VCO and Ultima C (Vitamin C in the form of Sodium Ascorbate, for faster efficacy of VCO), was the best decision of our life for our son. The next day, everything was different. He no longer took those medicines and continues his life without fear of triggers. The day before that was the last time we saw those medicines on the fridge and the day I kept the nebulizer back to its box! It was indeed GOD's answer to our prayers. Our son had been suffering for asthma for 3 and a half years and he took all those craps inside of his body. Our next goal was to detoxify him. Most of the asthma patients were given higher dose of antibiotics and those have to be flushed out via detoxification! I will have another story about his detoxification (using Kryptorganic) and will show you videos of him taking these powerful supplements. For those who didn't know what VCO can do to patients with Asthma, here's all the studies and research I made. 

Based on the study conducted by Nancy Guberti, a Certified Nutritionist and a metabolic and functional medicines specialist in Greenwich, Connecticut, asthma patients showed very high levels of candida and intolerance to wheat,dairy,gluten and soy. According to Nancy,"inflammation is the root cause of asthma. What we see when we remove inflammatory foods, it helps tremendously. The top inflammatory foods are dairy, wheat,soy,corn,whey and gluten." Nancy notes that when her patients can follow this diet 100 percent they see dramatic results "in about two weeks."

The good news is that the diet which help reduce asthma symptoms significantly or even cure asthma is not just about elimination things from your diet but about substituting things in your normal everyday diet with things that are very healthy and just as tasty (if not tastier). Coconut oil and other coconut products substitute easily for common everyday foods and are extraordinarily healthy and healing for asthmatics looking for a asthma cure and/ or home remedies for asthma. 

Things to consider about coconut oil for Asthma:

#1 Why are coconut products and coconut oil so good for asthmatics?

Asthma is a condition of internal inflammatory that is caused frequently by high levels of candida and poor digestion in the GI track. According to Nancy, " studies show that the first sign of inflammation will occur in the GI track. If you think of your GI track as a bucket and if you put a cup of water in the bucket every time you eat food that causes inflammation, eventually that bucket is going to overflow and with most people the first place that inflammation goes to is to the lungs." 

Coconut oil is a natural anti-fungal and anti-viral which will fight the candida asthmatics so often have and it is also an anti-inflammatory that will help reduce inflammation in the GI track thereby lessening the chance of the inflammation from the GI track spilling into the lungs and causing asthma symptoms. Lastly, coconut oil helps naturally rebuild tissues broken down from the wear and tear asthma has on the body.

#2 Asthma inhalers can cause candida growth in your mouth, coconut oil can help eliminate it.

Asthma inhalers can cause candida to form in the mouth which can spread to other parts of the body including the lungs which cause asthma symptoms. Coconut oil helps get rid of this candida.

#3 Coconut is high in the fat that your lungs need.

Coconut oil is high in phospholipids and is also compromised of 100 percent fatty acids which are the best type of fat for the lungs. According to Nancy, " Lungs work the best with the kind of fat found in coconut oil as opposed to the partially hydrogenated fats and oils from corn or vegetable oil which are found in so many of our foods."

Coconut has been shown to prevent and even cure candida. It provides relief from inflammation caused by candida, both externally and internally. Its high moisture retaining capacity keeps the skin from cracking or peeling off. Further, unlike other pharmaceutical treatments for candida, the effects of coconut oil is gradual and not drastic or sudden, which gives the patient an appropriate amount of time to get used to the withdrawal symptoms or Herxheimer Reactions ( the name given o the symptoms accompanying body's rejection of toxins generated during elimination of these fungi). But, in the treatment of this condition, people should systematically and gradually increase their dosages of coconut oil and shouldn't initially start a large quantity.

Candida, also known as Systemic Candidiasis, is a tragic disease caused from excessive and uncontrolled growth of yeast called Candida Albicans in the stomach. This yeast is more or less present in everyone's stomach, but it doesn't manifest any adverse effects since its growth is controlled by the beneficial bacteria which also resides in our stomach. There are many reasons for this uncontrolled growth of yeast. For example, if other destructive bacteria or the use of antibiotics which ultimately end up in eliminating these bacteria, there can be an imbalance of bacteria and a problem like Candida can develop. Also, bleaching or washing of your stomach with medicines or excessive use of chemical laxatives or ingestion of poisonous material can cause the yeast or fungi to start growing fast and can lead to Candida.

The various fatty acids found in thr coconut oil are beneficial in counteracting the effects of these habits and can be used to treat Candida. (Credits: Nancy Guberti & Organic Facts).

Now you know what VCO can do. But do you know what those ASTHMA medicines and antibiotics can do to the patient's body? A lot! A lot of trouble! So what would you choose? Those synthetic drugs that brought temporary relief but are actually causing the problem in the first place, and damage other organs or the natures natural healer? Remember what Confucius has to say " let thy medicine be thy food and thy food be thy medicines." VCO is a food from nature, a God-given food. Let us all be as Organic and Natural as possible to keep our body and out family's body healthy. We all live them, let us spread the advocacy of bringing back nature and healing together.

I am happy to inform you that the Philippines produces the best virgin coconut oil in the world and 1st Health Virgin Coconut Oil is on top of it. 1st Health Virgin Coconut Oil came from organically grown tropical coconut palms commonly referred to as the "Tree of Life" and is processed via cold-pressing to retain its oil goodness.

1st Health Virgin Coconut Oil is naturally processed and has a totally clear water-like appearnace and taste of highly sweet coconut. Its low moisture content is responsible for its typically longer shelf life. If you think you need these products for you or a loved one, contact me. I am willing to assist you. I will be showing a video of this product being taken by my precious one and how he's being able to tolerate such a big softgel capsule.

Next will be the detoxification I made for my son..

An accident!

It was August 23,2011 around 2pm at Brgy. Apokon Tagum City Philippines. We (my husband & our son Basty) just reached the place (my Mom-in laws'). My husband went down the car as I fixed myself. Basty was at the back of the car. I told him to wait for me before going out, but he went out unnoticed and went directly towards my mother's house. I saw him when he's about to cross the street but with a blink of an eye, a motorcycle hit him! I saw the whole incident...it was terrifying! I went down & carried my son directly back to car and Joel drove the car as fast as he can towards the nearest hospital, Davao Regional Hospital. As I am carrying my son, I felt with too much pain... he was fainting! I saw bruises on his left forehead near the left eye, I saw some blood in his left elbow and the left side of the abdomen.. I just talked to him the whole time asking him to just wake up.. I asked him to pray with me..Jehovah God will be with us, he will be okey. I almost lost my mind! I was too terrified! I can't explain it.. Until we reached the ER. He was attended right away through the help my closed friend who's working there. First things done were the XRays, then the cleansing of the wounds. After i guess an hour, he was sleepy and tired. I was afraid to let him sleep. Until the xray results came and thank God everything is ok. His skulls, his Pelvic, his forearm were all intact. I can breathe well now.. Later, he's back to senses and active again.

If there's one thing I learned about the whole incident? Never let loose of my baby.. I know that he is Special and that even if he understands; there are things he cannot actually completely comprehend. Even a normal child is hard headed at times, the more that I have to be cautious in taking care of him.

My family is my strength above anything else.. They are my life. I cannot afford that something bad will happen to them. I will not allow it..Until now, the terrifying incident sets still on my mind. I lose strength just thinking of it. Picturing my Basty harmed that way, weakened my whole senses..I would rather be hurt than him.

My Baby Basty, I'm so sorry... I promise to take care of you even more! I love you so much & Daddy.

Thank you God Jehovah for saving my baby's life! Thank you for watching over him always..

Changing Paradigm..

Are you a person who's open to possibilities? Do you welcome opportunities in your life? Have you ever dreamt of aiming success in life but have no vehicle to get it? Let me share you my story in life.. Follow me on Silentnoise32.blogspot.com

I graduated with a medical course from a University here in Davao City. During my school years, I had no idea about what the future will bring. I didn't have plans for the future. I just lived each day with every day’s regular routine. Went to school, studied hard, went home, earned good grades because that’s what my parents sat my mind, for, as they say “go to school, earn good grades so that when you graduate you can get a good job and so you will have a life better than what we have”. True enough, after graduation, I made my way to the path of life’s reality. Submitted application letters anywhere and everywhere. I was hired, I resigned, and hired, resigned until I was given a break by a Multi-National Company, which I really thought would make me stay until I retire. 

My 1^st 3-5 years of stay in the company were the happiest days of my career life. I experienced going to places, even outside the country. I met lots of wonderful people, good friends and mentors. I even got a lot of recognition and awards from the company. During these days I have explored my life to the fullest, got married to the most understanding person I had been with for the past 5 years. I was living a life that I never expected to come. I was able to buy what I want, eat what I want, go where I want. Until bigger responsibilities came up, I was pregnant. 

The first 2 years were bliss. I felt that I already had everything. I cannot ask for more. I was so blessed in all aspects- my career, my family, a good husband, a baby, almost everything. Only when I realized that my baby has special needs that I really open myself to other possibilities. Yes, he was diagnosed with 1 year delay in speech and socialization which made him considered to belong in the umbrella of ASD. Though he is highly-functional, still, he has special needs that require my full attention. I decided to study Nursing with the thought in mind that I have to try other things instead of just relying everything from the company I’m working. I knew that this time, our needs will shoot up since my son had 3 therapies to go through, aside from the fact that he is growing. I also thought that there was no support group for Special Kids like him in our place. So, in my mind, I will study nursing so when I became a Nurse, I can work abroad, earn big to sustain his therapies and eventually bring them there. My plans were clear. While schooling, I still managed to work, take care of my son and be a wife all at the same time. It was tough! 

One day, while on my way to work I thought about something different. What if I will try something else? What if I’ll try to put up my own business? So I will own my time and be able to give more of my attention to my son while finishing my Nursing course? Sometimes, you also have to seek for the best opportunities, sometimes you have to think about it so you will be guided on what you really want. I stood still and prayed for it. Then headed towards my day’s coverage-Digos, Davao del Sur. Along the way, a lot of things came up to my mind. I wanted a boutique, or an internet cafe, a coffee shop or a car wash or all in one. But the thought of raising a capital for that business suddenly blew my dream business away and come back to the reality. I just forget about it and headed towards my first call who’s one of my closest clients. She told me that she saw potentials in me in terms of business, then she showed me a product that could possibly interest me to start off. It was Glutathione soap! My first thought was, oh, it’s a good product not only to sell, but of course for personal use! Hehehe the vanity in me! That was the beginning of it all. That sideline increases its demand each month and so I decided to file my own company at the Dept. Of Trade & Industry, underwent all the processes to get my business started. 

When my husband realized the opportunity with that product, he personally do some research about the product’s supplier/distributor, he found out that I've missed a lot for just selling the soap. He said there are other ways to maximize the potential income in this kind of business. He then oriented me completely and both of us decided to go for it! 

This business was a non-traditional business which aims at earning by helping other people. It’s Building People, Building Business kind of thing. In other words, Network Marketing. At first, my husband was hesitant to join because he knew it was a networking company, but me, I don’t mind as long as I am earning just by selling soaps. But when he realized that the system was different from all the other networking companies, he decided to give it a try. Our first try was worth it. We started to invite people. Attend trainings to be equipped. And the rest was history. Right now, we already have 1,000 + down lines to whom we shared much our wisdom & knowledge and our combined income give us 50% increase in our previous job's salary. It was a big blessing for us. I pay tribute to my openness to the possibility and by attracting the things that I really want. 

My decision to join the business had a purpose- It was the answer to my prayers. Because of that soap, I was able to resign from my work and become a Full-time mom with a full-time income. As I am typing this blog, I am waiting for my son from his Occupational Therapy. After this, we will have lunch together with my husband and then bring him to his Special School this afternoon.

I have the grandest time of my life. I own my time. I don’t have to worry about hitting my 5M target each month. I don’t have to stress myself about the pressures of my Boss and the never-ending report submission. I can do blogs, meet old friends and help other people through this blessing that has been bestowed upon me. If there’s one thing I realized on this journey, it is that we need to take risks in order to grow. I preferred to move myself, get out of my comfort zone than just being idle forever and do the same thing for the rest of my working years. I also thank my son for being the instrument of that decision and mind shifting. And my husband who’s also very supportive.

So, to you who are looking for opportunities, do something. If you see it as something that could help you, grab it! It might be the answer to all your prayers. “You will never know unless you’ll try.”

To Jehovah God, I may have a lot of shortcomings in terms of serving you, but please know that I offer all these things to you. I am humbly thankful for your continued guidance, love and understanding.

The Truth about life..

“RAT RACE” The life of the average-educated, hardworking person,has this path. The child is born and goes to school. The proud parents are excited because the child excels, gets fair to good grades, and is accepted into college. The child graduates, maybe goes on to graduate school and then does exactly as programmed: looks for a safe, secure job or career. The child finds that job, maybe as a doctor or a lawyer, or joins the Army or works for the government. Generally, the child begins to make money, credit cards start to arrive in mass, and the shopping begins, if it already hasn’t.

Having money to burn, the child goes to places where other young people just like them hang out, and they meet people, they date, and sometimes they get married. Life is wonderful now, because today, both men & women work. Two income are bliss. They feel successful, their future is bright, and they decide to buy a house, a car, a television, take vacations and have children. The happy bundle arrives. The demand for cash is enormous . The happy couple decides that their careers are vitally important and begin to work harder, seeking promotions and raises. The raises come, and so does another child and the need for a bigger house. They work harder, become better employees, even more dedicated. They go back to school to get more specialized skills so they can earn more money. Maybe they take a second job. Their incomes go up, but so does the needs. They get their large pay check and wonder where all the money went. They buy groceries & clothing with their credit card. The children reach 5 or 6 years of age, and the need to save for college increases as well as the need to save for their retirement.

That happy couple, born 35 years ago, is now trapped in the Rat Race for the rest of their working days. They work for the owners of their company, for the government paying taxes, and for the bank paying off a mortagage and credit cards.
Then, they advise their own children to ’study hard,, get good grades, and find a safe job or career.’ They learned nothing about money, except from those who profit from their naivet’e, and work hard all their lives. The process repeats into another hard-working generation.

This is the RAT RACE.
