   Extractions: Parenting a chronically ill child is a challenge. Having a child with a chronic illness is stressful for any family. Parents of a chronically ill child are often faced with difficulties and decisions that other parents will never have to face. A major task parents of a chronically ill child face is the responsibility of helping their child cope with his or her illness. Here are some suggestions. *Educate yourself about your child's illness. *Explain the illness to your child. *Help your child deal with his or her feelings about the illness. Sometimes it's hard to predict how a child will react to the knowledge that he or she has a chronic illness. Parents should make an effort to help their chronically ill child deal with any emotional reactions he or she might have. They can do this by providing support, listening to their child, and discussing their child's feelings. Some children may resist discussing their concerns or feelings in order to protect their parents from becoming upset. It is critical that a chronically ill child feel that he or she can talk to his or her parents about any concerns or feelings without fear of being judged negatively or causing parents to become overly upset. Parents should also keep in mind that a child's thoughts and feelings about the illness may change over time. This is why it is important to keep the lines of communication open at all times.

   Extractions: Landmark Survey Reveals Five Steps for Success Research Triangle Park, N.C., - A landmark survey suggests that millions of Americans living with diabetes, asthma, heart disease, depression and other chronic illnesses may gain better control of their illnesses by working with their physicians to implement five specific steps. Chronic Care in America ™,” a comprehensive survey conducted by Harris Interactive®, is the first to reveal positive behaviors across many chronic conditions, and demonstrate why some people succeed and others struggle to manage a long-term condition. While medical researchers, policy makers and the Bush administration develop strategies to control chronic illnesses and its costs, this new study reveals straightforward actions that patients can take to improve their health today. The actions are based on the behaviors of patients who indicated in the survey that they have succeeded in managing their condition, as well as observations of physicians. 125 million Americans, or more than 44% of the nation’s population, have a chronic condition (1), and many have more than one condition, especially among the Medicare population where 63% have two or more conditions (2). Medical costs for people with chronic diseases account for more than 70% of the $1 trillion spent on healthcare each year in the United States (3).

   Extractions: By Cynthia Perkins, M.Ed. Managing your illness means to take responsibility for the actions that are necessary for you to cope and live life as optimally as possible within the limits you are faced with. It empowers you to improve the quality of your life, reduces helplessness and hopelessness and promotes self-confidence and self-esteem. There are many steps one can take to manage their illness, and these steps may vary greatly from week to week or from individual to individual. But, there are several essentials that are fundamental to any health care path regardless of your diagnosis. These essentials are: 1. Proper Nutrition You are what you eat. What you eat has a profound impact on your mental and physical health. Eating a healthy diet is essential for optimal functioning and healing. Depending on your particular illness, this may include incorporating new foods into your diet or eliminating some favorites. At the very least you should be eliminating things such as sugar, caffeine, refined foods and unhealthy fats and replacing these with whole foods such as vegetables, whole grains, nuts and seeds, fruits and fresh or frozen meat and poultry. Preferably your diet should be free of chemicals and toxins found in the average diet such as pesticides, herbicides, additives, dyes and preservatives. Healing can't take place in a body fed with unhealthy foods and neither can maximum functioning.

   Extractions: Learn How to Protect Your Baby We all want our children to be vibrantly healthy and happy. Children will inevitably get sick at times, but some children are dealing with infections on a continual basis. Unfortunately, an increasing number of children are burdened with chronic illnesses or disorders that can make their lives pretty challenging. The current system of conventional health care can be enormously frustrating and lacking in real answers for children diagnosed with asthma, autism, multiple allergies, attention deficit disorder, recurring infections, or other chronic health problems. Visits to the doctor may result in drug prescriptions with which you may not feel comfortable. The medication may keep the symptoms in check, but what you really want is for your child to completely heal and reclaim health and vitality. The holistic approach to health does not reject conventional medicine, but is a sensible, complete form of healing that considers your child’s entire picture of health and uses the best and most appropriate options for healing. It is a process of strengthening every system of the mind-body and allowing your child’s natural healing potential to flourish. Many of the chronic health problems that affect children will respond best when addressed from a holistic point of view. Holistic is defined as pertaining to all aspects of human nature – physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. To approach health holistically is to consider the mind, emotions, spirit, and entire body when addressing the health of a person, not just the area that is manifesting the symptoms. The underlying foundation and prerequisite for true healing is compassion for the patient, and consideration of all aspects of the patient’s nature, including the family, culture and community. Taking all this into consideration, holistic practitioners choose therapies that are most appropriate for the individual child.

Furthermore, we have found that most of these patients have multiple chronic infections that contribute to their morbidity.(2) If such patients refuse to change their dietary habits, they generally do not recover from their conditions, irrespective of the treatments used for their illnesses. Thus we consider that diet is extremely important in the treatment of chronic illnesses, and patients must follow some simple procedures to correct their dysfunctional immune systems and gastrointestinal tracts and restore proper nutrition to their bodies.(3) Chronic illness patients are often immunosuppressed or have dysfunctional immune systems and are therefore susceptible to opportunistic infections.(4) Simple or refined sugars can suppress the immune system, and simple sugars can also stimulate disease-causing microorganisms that require sugars for their growth.

Status of Diet and Nutrition Research in the United States Diet and nutrition research goes on in almost every medical school, university, and pharmaceutical laboratory throughout the world. Thus, the knowledge of how to prevent illness and maintain health through nutrition grows every year. However, for such areas as reversing the effects of chronic disease through dietary or nutritional intervention or determining levels of nutrients required to achieve optimal metabolic or immune system functioning, there often is no critical mass of researchers or funds to follow up promising initial experimental results. In fact, the history of nutrition research is marked by examples where, for one reason or another, preliminary reports of a positive therapeutic effect of a certain vitamin, mineral, or nutritional manipulation appear but are often not followed up by the overwhelming majority of the medical community. In cases where such therapies eventually are proven to be safe and effective, it is sometimes not until years or even decades after the initial reports. The result is that many individuals may die or suffer needlessly, while effective interventions are available but not yet validated.

    Extractions: Nutritional Suggestions For the ILL Diet is very important when you are battling a serious illness. This diet works wonderfully well along side of essiac MILD FOOD DIET Let us define mild food and see why this is the basis of all healing. Fruits are digested and removed from the body in twenty to thirty minutes because they are glucose sugar or simple sugar. Vegetables (not having heavy starch) will digest within forty-five to sixty minutes, when used alone. All vegetables have a certain amount of starch and are not as easily eliminated from the body as fruits. Vegetables, however, digest faster than the more concentrated foods such as starch, meat, and complex sugars. Concentrated foods cause the body to work harder and for a longer period of time in the process of digestion, requiring from four to six hours. Pork requires nine hours. It is also logical to use mild food in case of chronic or acute illness, since an adequate amount of hormones, hydrochloric acid, and enzymes are required to bring the concentrated foods into a state where they can be used by the body during this four to six hour process of digestion. Most people who are chronically sick do not have an adequate hormone balance so as to accurately make these changes. With the inability to make this change accurately, there is then an increase in the toxic waste by virtue of the unutilized foods. Fruit and honey are already glucose sugar and do not need much change. Vegetables have a small amount of starch but still do not require as much body effort in the process of digestion; they also have a cleansing and lubricating action, making them a suitable food for building as well as cleansing, with a minimum of strain on body organs.

However, the majority of us will develop one or more chronic health problems during our lives. In fact, it is estimated that people 60 and older on average have two or more chronic health conditions such as arthritis, heart disease, lung disease, stroke or diabetes. Chronic health problems typically require that a person manage their condition with the guidance and advice of their doctor. That usually means maintaining a certain diet, exercising regularly and following a strict medication program. Dealing with any chronic condition is an emotional challenge. Often the emotional and psychological effects are just as daunting as the physical ones. The losses and lifestyle changes that are associated with chronic illness can take a toll. These may include the loss of a job or friends, or giving up some dreams, goals or valued activities. Finding ways to cope with the physical and emotional challenges is key to living successfully with a chronic health problem. This process, often called "self help" or "self management," includes all the decisions a person makes and actions they take to maintain their health and independence.

    Extractions: Abstract General Nutritional Considerations for Chronic Illness Patients The important points to remember are: 2. Do not consume caffeine. Caffeine can stimulate the growth of certain microorganisms and can change your blood properties and stimulate certain biochemical pathways that are not helpfull for chronic illness patients. In addition, excess caffeine can modify your immune system's ability to fight disease. 3. Reduce or eliminate milk products. Milk and milk products stimulate the growth of yeast and fungi. Milk also contains high amounts of sugar and fat, two dietary components that should be reduced in your diet. Sour milk or its products, such as yogurt, can be troublesome for some patients. We usually suggest that patients use supplementation with Lacto bacillus acidophillus and other friendly bacteria (from 3-6 billion live organisms twice per day) to restore gastrointestinal balance. Your gut contains approximately 2 kilograms of bacteria, and these bacteria are important in digestion and maintenance of a healthy gastrointestinal system. The use of friendly bacteria supplements is discussed in more detail below.

Alpha Nutrition Starter Packs Self -Help: Too many people feel sick every day and cannot find a solution. If you are sick all over, you owe it to yourself to try diet revision completely and thoroughly. The Alpha Nutrition Program is explained in enough detail in the Alpha Nutrition Manual that an intelligent, well-motivated person can follow the steps outlined. Diet revision is an experiment, not a guaranteed cure. The hypothesis is that your "normal" diet is causing or contributing to feeling sick. The experiment is to take a food holiday or completely change your normal diet to find out if you improve. The good news is that you may benefit greatly by the effort you make. We recommend the slow track for all serious and chronic disorders. This means that you should consider doing a food holiday for at least 10 days and follow the rules in Phase 1 of the Alpha Nutrition Program exactly.

Food Allergy in Children Advanced Study Immunology Stephen Gislason MD Despite medical advance in the 20 the century, more than 150 million people in the USA and Canada are not well and receive little or no help from modern medicine. The least understood illness patterns are ill-defined and chronic. Out theory is that immune responses to food proteins may cause some of this suffering and can be corrected with diet revision. We believe that these delayed patterns of food allergy may afflict more than 100 million people in the USA alone. This may seem to be an outrageous assertion, but if you examine the lengthening list of ill-defined and immune-mediated diseases you have to be interested in this theory. For many years I have been seeing patients who complained of being sick-all-over. They often apologized for having so many symptoms and were grateful when I did not reject them outright as "hypochondriacs". The majority of these patients who complied with my instructions improved with diet revision and remained in better health as long as they stayed with a "safe core diet. I developed a standard method of diet revision, now called the Alpha Nutrition Program. Anyone who is sick-all-over can follow this program and with a little luck and lot of determination can restore more normal feeling and function.
