Diabetes – always a hot topic

Diabetes is a common disease and hence it is always a hot topic.

From the western medicine perspective, there are many different types of medication, different types of treatments and different types of therapies for different types of diabetes.

We will limit our discussion to Type 2 diabetes and Reverse Diabetes therapy.

Type 2 diabetes is a common condition that causes the level of sugar (glucose) in the blood to become too high. It can cause symptoms like excessive thirst, needing to pee a lot and tiredness. It can also increase your risk of getting serious problems with your eyes, heart and nerves.

Control or regulation of sugar (glucose) in the blood is carried out by insulin hormone. Logically, de-functioning of insulin contributes to diabetes.

Sugar (glucose) comes from the foods taken. By such a statement, western medicine implies that food intake is a contributing factor to diabetes.

From the above proposition, the conclusion is the need to control food intake, and insulin level in the blood by medication or diet.

Reverse Diabetes therapy is through diet changes and weight loss, you may be able to reach and hold normal blood sugar levels without medication.

Western medicine keeps emphasizing that there is no cure to diabetes, meaning Reverse Diabetes therapy is a control measure, not complete cure.

Just based on the above conclusion made by the western medicine, we can have a good discussion from the ancient wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, perspectives.

Why western medicine often say, there is no complete cure to diabetes? Similarly, there is no cure to Parkinson, no cure to Autism, no cure Autoimmune disorders etc. ?

As per many discussion in my video courses, the reason is western medicine does not focus on the actual root causes, but focus on immediate mechanics that is associated with the diseases, e.g. diabetes, factors such as insulin level out of balance, food intake that eventually contributes to high sugar contents in the blood.

It is obvious that if medical professionals do not focus on the original root causes, logically there is no chance to find a complete cure.

It is obvious that if medical professionals only focus on the immediate mechanics that are associated with diabetes, i.e. insulin and food intake, then the best result is just control, but not cure.

Ancient wisdom will address diabetes problems in a holistic and integrated manner.

How?

Some key questions to be addressed are

  1. What organ function is responsible to produce the optimal level of insulin to convert food to glucose?
  2. In what ways can such organ function be affected by other organs-functionalities?
  3. What particular factors affect the said organ functionalities out of balance?

The organ function for optimal level of insulin is Spleen (inclusive of pancreas) . As per ancient wisdom, Spleen is responsible for converting food into Qi Blood, i.e. internally generated nutrients for the body and energy for activities, which include what western medicine called glucose.

You can have excessive sweat foods that harm the Spleen function.

You can also have damaged or out of balance Spleen function that is not able to even convert low sugar content foods to glucose. Hence, in this case, it is not the food intake issue. It is the Spleen function itself.

Unlike western medicine which sees the body as a machine with parts to be managed, ancient wisdom sees all parts, organs, tissues etc as interconnected and inter-related.

For example, eye function is related to Liver function. If Liver function is out of balance, it affects the eye function and Spleen function, which affects production of Qi Blood, insulin and glucose.

Then the source of the diabetes is the Liver Function out of balance.

Spleen function can also be affected by out of balance Heart function, Lungs function, Kidneys function beside out of balance Liver function.

What then can cause these organ functions to be out of balance?

Ancient wisdom makes specific correlation, unlike western medicine which often offers vague and general suggestions e.g. good lifestyle, exercise, diets.

Using the examples of the above mentioned Spleen function out of balance and Liver function out of balance.

In the case of Spleen function out of balance, it can be caused by wrong food intake for the Spleen, by excessive thinking and worries, lack of Qi exercise for the Spleen Meridian etc.

In the case of Liver function out of balance, which affects the eyes and also affects Spleen functionality, it can be caused by wrong food intake for the Liver, anger emotions or suppressed emotions, excessive drive in performance, lack of Qi exercise for the Liver Meridian etc.

From the above, you can see that different diabetes patients have different sources of problems. There can be no balanced food intake for different organs, can be worries for some, anger for others, etc.

Food intake for different organs is an ancient wisdom food therapy concept. Western nutrition theory does not address what foods for what organ functions.

Ancient wisdom never says there is no cure for diseases, but emphasizes on total balancing, which is called Yin Yang balancing. If you have the knowledge and daily practice in balancing, then you live a complete healthy life.

The above is just a brief illustration of a holistic and integrated approach by ancient wisdom. For those who are seriously interested, welcome to join the video courses with internet links below.

Better Health requires Paradigm Shift

It is encouraging to see more and more enrollments to the ancient wisdom video courses.

Many express amazement that there is not only interesting but also revolutionary ideas about health, sickness and diseases, which were advocated 3000 years ago.

With such amzement, many sign up to all the video courses concerning ancient wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic.

However, I do realize some challenges faced by the learners.

This is because for centuries our minds are conditioned by the western science, western medicine and western nutrition theory to understand our body system in a particular manners, which is incomplete and hence not holistic.

Now the ancient wisdom presents a very different approach which can really address the fundamental issues with prevention and solutions.

But the subconscious mind, being heavily conditioned, cannot easily shift the paradigm after a few hours of the video courses. Hence practitioners will soon revert back to the old thinking pattern and not allowing the new practice to take roots.

For this reason, I encourage the learners to make good use of the video courses, i.e. these video courses are available for re-visit as many times as necessary.

Furthermore I organize a Telegram Discussion Group for members to share, discuss, more Q&A on their daily practices and more queries on the ancient theories.

By such reinforcement, paradigm shift can take roots and participant can enjoy the new practice towards well being.

Interested public are welcome to join the Telegram discussion group by signing up any of the video courses. By doing so, you have some theoritical basic to make meaningful discussion.

Please Telegram me @Andrew360q after you enrolled to any of the courses.

Discover bits & pieces but never Whole

“The brain-gut connection: how TCM has known for centuries what Western medicine is now discovering

There are more and more such articles published that today scientists discover the functions or malfunctions of the brain is connected with the gut. 

This implies brain related problems like Parkinson, dementia, autism, stokes are connected with the gut problems. 

This connection and relationship are well understood 3000 years ago as per ancient wisdom “Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic”.

However today scientists using Western Medicine theory still operate with their fragmented and compartmentalized thinking, looking for micro solutions and not macro solutions.

For example, such statements “Recent research has found that bacteria in the gut can affect people’s mental state, leading to mood, cognition and behavioural problems.” lead scientists to zoom in research into the bacteria and elimination of the bacteria.

But that will not solve the fundamental problems.

Let me explain.

As per Google search :

Where is the gut found? The mouth is the first part of the gut (gastrointestinal tract). When we eat, food passes down the gullet (oesophagus), into the stomach, and then into the small intestine. The small intestine has three sections – the duodenum, jejunum and ileum.

The gut involves digestive system (mouth, stomach) and absorption system (small intestines).

Just based on the above limited information, ancient wisdom considered more than 2 variables (Stomach & Intestines) that create whatever may be the health problems.

Stomach is closely related to Spleen. Small Intestines are closely related to Heart.

As per 5-Elements Theory, Spleen / Stomach, Small Intestines / Heart are in constant interaction with Kidneys / Bladder, Lungs / Large Intestines, Liver / Gall-Bladder. 

Only with all the organs functionalities are in good balance, you will not have so called bacteria in the guts.

Hence bacteria in the gut is the end result of how well you overall organs functioning. Hence it is not the cause.

What is this ancient wisdom Total Integrated Model that connects all parts of our body and mind?

Watch this short video to get some understanding.

How do I strengthen the overall performance of my body organs system to heal (balance) or to prevent diseases?

Take up these 6 video courses on Ancient Wisdom.

Kid’s inability to Concentrate

A concerned mother shared the following about her 5 years old kid for advice.

Andrew, my kid’s learning is affected due to in-ability to concentrate .

His confidence is low as the teachers have not been kind to his inability to concentrate.

He cries easily. His core muscle weak and cannot sit straight to do homework

He has difficulty to wake up in the morning though he sleeps by 11 pm.

He does not have much temper .. very kind.

Just that he can’t focus and cannot complete work without being reminded.

How to help him, please?

My reply :

Thanks for the sharing.

Based on the information given, I share the following from the perspective of Ancient Wisdom.

Generally, there is overall body weakness or deficiency. (体质虚)

I suspect his Spleen and Stomach more deficient. (脾虚,胃虚),

because Spleen Consciousness is manifested in Thinking, which needs concentration. (脾主思)

Core muscle weakness and cannot sit straight to do homework, and you said “He does not have much temper .. very kind”.

Such symptoms are related to both Liver Deficiency (肝气虚).

Not having much temper should not be taken as healthy sign. For example, if a child has no temper even he is bullied, his toys are forcibly taken from him by other boys, and he shows no temper or anger, it show weakness in Liver Qi (肝气虚).

One of the Liver functionalities is in Muscles and tendons, which the child has weaknesses.

And Liver in in charge of Anger Emotion. (肝主怒)。

You also mentioned, “he always Gives up”

This is lacking in Will Power. And this can be due to Kidneys deficiency. Kidneys Consciousness manifests in Will Power. (肾主志)(志是志气).

There is relationship between Spleen, Liver and Kidneys as per 5 Element theory (五行学说)。

The theory says, Spleen Controls Kidneys (土克水), and Liver Control Spleen (肝克水).

Because his kidneys are in deficiency, that affects his heart (水克火), Heart is in charge of Consciousness. This may explain why he has difficulty to wake up in the morning although he did sleep the previous night.

All organs functionalities affect each other to various degrees with all sorts of behaviors and symptoms.

I suggest you take up the 6 essential video lessons on Ancient Wisdom (黄帝内经), starting with Food Therapy.

You can choose English or Chinese lessons.

We want Complete Health, Not just treating a symptom or two.

(This is sharing of learning gathered, without mentioning the learner’s name and particulars).

A student completed the Food Therapy video trainingand also completed the Body Constituent questionnaires and raised some questions.

The learner has many years of sleeping problem.

Learner finds that there is a mix of different types of Body Constituents relevant to herself, with different scores.

From the Body Constituent questionnaires, she also realizes there are many more symptoms experienced, and not just sleeping problems.

The following is some discussion.

In your case, focus on the one with highest score e.g. Phlegm-damp Body Constituent 痰湿体质。

The video course also explains if Phlegm is not arrested, and cumulative in different parts of the body, e.g. at heart, it may cause insomnia, if at the brain, it many cause stroke etc..

The questionnaires give details of symptoms e.g. oily face, sticky feeling, joints pain, constipation, cannot sweat easily ….

These symptoms experienced are important Indicators to watch up for, while doing various therapies 调理, until improvement is made.

Since this particular video course is on Food Therapy, then the learner should refer to the tables given indicating what foods to avoid, what foods to consume.

The video course also gives details on Food Plan.

Do the above for a few months to get the new diet plan into routine.

Later learn and apply other therapies.

(A follow up communication ).

You Stagnant Qi Body Constituent (气郁体质) score is rather high xxxx.

The main cause of Stagnant Qi is your management of your emotions.

e.g.

you mentioned you are emotionally dependent on others, .

being soft hearted in doing charity,

lack of decisiveness in making life decision,

etc.

Stagnant Qi, later, can lead to Blood Stasis 血瘀, (as explained in my video), and Blood Stasis have a lot of problems to the body, imagine your blood too thick, full of toxin, cannot flow easily … blood stasis in the brain causes memory loss, in the heart causes heart attack, at the leg causes water retention and legs weakness etc. etc.)

You can better realize 3000 yrs ancient wisdom links Personality with health issues. And we all have imperfect personality, hence with different health challenges.

Note: 200 yrs Western Medicine does not have such theory linking personality with diseases, Western Medicine focuses on identifying more and more new virus and kill them.

Being aware of the above on Personality is important, we cannot change such behaviors overnight.

Hence you start with developing discipline in the Food Therapy you learned so far, and later the Qi Exercise …by practicing such discipline, you enhance your emotional stability.

Please do enjoy your Disciplined Daily Action.

Half way to Heaven only!

What a strange topic for discussion.

Which religion will you choose :  

1) show you way to heaven,

2) show you half (½) way to heaven?

Yesterday I have a discussion with a mother, who has a child of autism.

Throughout the conversation she holds the Belief that she can only do her best, there is no way the child can be normal and healthy again.

Similarly I observe there are many people with sickness like diabetes, Parkinson, high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s Disease, cancers, depression,  . ,hold the Belief that their sickness can never be cured completely, and they must take life long medication to control the sickness and suffer the side effects.

Where does such strong Belief come from? It is like a strong religious Belief.

Such Belief comes from Western Science, Western Medicine Theory, Western Nutrition Theory,

Our mind is brainwashed since young throughout our education, formal & informal.

It is like a religious Belief, except this religion does not show you the way to heaven, only halfway to heaven.

What if there is another theory that shows you the way to heaven, i.e. to full recovery from sickness, to be free from autism, to be fully healthy?

Ancient Wisdom offers such theory.

Ancient Wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, shows you the Way, the Dao.

“Is there guarantee my sickness or autism can be completely cured?”

Well, who can guarantee you that you can go to heaven if you follow the religion?

Surely it depends on your faith and your sincere & diligent practice daily.

Ancient wisdom just shows you there is a way, whereas Western Medicine say no way.

Which theory you want to choose to practice now?

You are most welcome to learn about ancient wisdom in the following video courses.

Son’s Violent Behaviors

Lately there were a few cases referred by two Western  Medicine doctors to me, involving teenage / adult children.


Common factors among these cases are enormous & uncontrolled anger, violence against the parents & family members, some with threats to inflict physical injury to parents.


Recent triggering events can be jilted by girlfriend, failed the college exam, taking drugs, not getting the high pocket money demanded, …


The parents feel so sad and guilty about their poor parenting.


In those cases the parents came to see me and shared with me the background stories, I did the psychological & physiological analysis on their adult child and assured the parents they had done the best they could on parenting and need not get locked in their guilt feeling.


I share the following examples.


The child since young had problems to stay focused. Any interest or hobby, activity is very short live.


Hence he could not succeed anything : whether school work, sports, games or hobbies.


This can create a built up frustration and anger in him over years.
The above is analysis from psychological and personality angles.


As per 3000 years ancient wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, there is matching physiological image to the above psychology & personality.


Spleen consciousness is in Thinking & Focusing. 脾主思。
Kidneys consciousness is in Will Power. 肾藏志。


Hence since young, the child had deficiencies in Spleen & Kidneys Functionalities.


(Please refer video training course on “Organs Functionalities, What the Western Medicine does not know.”)


In one of the cases, the child also has achievement orientation, and got the recognition from his friends on some of his expressed capability. The friends influenced him on gambling, taking drugs, with many exciting night activities without sleep.


Ancient wisdom says, Liver stores Ethereal Soul,  肝藏魂。


Ethereal Soul has attributes like creativity and strategies. Now he can express such attributes in gambling, drugs and illegal activities.


Ancient wisdom says, Liver stores Anger,  肝主怒。


His past years of frustration & anger due to him not able to focus and not able to achieve much, coupled with not enough sleep at nights, his Liver functionalities are severely out of balance.


His anger & violence can be easily triggered by anything not going his way, e.g. jilted by girl friend, lost money in gambling, not able to get from parents his high demand on pocket money….


Why inadequate sleep can affect liver function, and affect behaviors? Please refer to video training on Meridians.


Ideally if the parents know the psychology & personalities and the matching corresponding organs functionalities, there are many therapies (Including Food Therapy) the parents can do when the child is still young.


This article illustrates the importance of the knowledge in the ancient wisdom, Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, a holistic model integrating Psychology, Personality and Physiology.

This discussion involves a few key concepts which are explained in details in the video training.”

My Child with autism eats Stool

(This is a discussion with a forum group, i.e. Parents with children of Autism).

Dear Parent,

I wish to share with you some explanation on your child eats stool problem.

I explain from the theory of the 3000 years ancient wisdom, which can explain many phenomena that Western Medicine cannot explain.

I have been sharing my research for a profound solution to autism as per theory of the Ancient Wisdom, but few people want to listen, as most people belief system is locked in the Western Education we received.

Western education and theory about our body system, our health are inadequate and incomplete as compared with Ancient Wisdom.

Even though many people could not come out from their embedded belief system, and disregard the message from the ancient wisdom,  I will continue to share.

I take patience to explain to you, even though later you still disbelieve.

Why the child eats stool?

First we go back to basic.

When we want to eat something, a few pre-conditions exist.

1. Body  needs for foods & drink
2. Smell, Taste, Flavor form the attributes of foods & drink.

Some examples

Someone always goes for spicy foods excessively, hot, chilly, pungent, till such habit damages his health.


As per the theory of Ancient Wisdom, different organs have different needs for different taste, flavour, smell of foods.

In this case, it is the Lungs that prefer pungent, spicy foods.

But there must be a balance, a person who never takes pungent foods, his lungs do not develop well.

Fortunately and unknowingly we do take pungent foods like onions, garlic. Hence our lungs get nourished.

Another person who takes excessive pungent foods, his lungs get damaged, leading to all sort of lungs related diseases.

Each of the key critical organs, Heart, Lungs, Kidneys, Liver, Heart, has its preference for certain flavour & smell.

A healthy person will have a good combination of all flavours. Either he has the knowledge of the ancient wisdom on combination of foods-flavour, or the healthy body will subconsciously direct the person to avoid certain foods.

Back to the early example, the person who eats pungent foods excessively, will not enjoy pungent foods when his lungs problems are solved.

In the case of Eating Stool, different stool has different mixed flavour & smell, in all cases, it shows some or almost all the major organs functionalities are out of balance.

A child eats stool is not educational issue, but physiological problem.

When the child organs functionalities are balanced, naturally, he will not eat stool anymore.

Do you know that some child likes eating soil from flower pot?

Now you realize how much the organs functionalities are out of balance for drug addicts!

In this limited space, I can only explain briefly the concept as above.

If you are deeply curious, wanting to find solution for you child, you can invest in a few hours of time to go through the following video training, on the theory, practice and healing application.

Food Therapy for the unique you with your own Body Constituents

Meridians, Qi-exercises & other self-help Healing Methods

Organs Functionalities (What Western Medicine does not know)


If you still hesitate, you can read up more my other articles about Ancient Wisdom, with keyword search “Autism” at

Ancient Wisdom Today Well being.


If you prefer to remain in your current belief system, not taking yourself out of the thinking box to accept the Ancient Wisdom, that is alright, I will go on to introduce to other people.

Cheers and God Bless.
