mom to beCystic Ovaries, Infertility and Diet*
 
by: Dr. Carolyn Berghuis, MS, ND, CTN
Joy of Raphael 

The typical diet of low fat, zero cholesterol, and trans-fat-loaded fast foods causes ovarian problems that include cystic ovaries and infertility.  Unfortunately, many young women of today believe that following a healthy diet actually means following a low fat/no fat diet.  In reality, this type of eating actually starves the ovaries (and the other glands of the endocrine system including the thyroid) of one of the nutrients they need the most - healthy FAT! 
A remarkable study from Obstetrics & Gynecology (November, 2007) looked at women who could not conceive.  It turns out that ovarian syndromes like Poly-cystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and infertility are caused by the same thing - the typical low-fat diet, and fast-food ("non-food") diet.  They found that diet greatly affects hormone levels.  And a woman can greatly increase her chances of conceiving by changing her diet.
Healthy dietary changes reduced infertility (from ovarian causes) by 80%.  The dietary culprits were primarily carbohydrates from potatoes and sodas, and trans-fats from fast foods.  The cure was whole foods with plenty of fats.  Specific recommendations were to shun low-fat milk, and instead drink whole milk!
For more information on healthy dietary fats read my article titled "Eat Fat; Lose Fat". in a previous Joy of Raphael e-newsletter.

LaStone Therapy; An Ancient Healing Massage That Encompasses A Perfect Balance of Yin and Yang 

LaStone Therapy is a complete mind, body, soul therapy conceived by Mary Nelson-Hannigan from Tuscon, Arizona in 1993.  Mary has been blessed with learning about Native American Indian Cultures and enjoyed blending their natural methods of healing with her background in massage.  People have been drawn to the healing energies of stones left behind from previous dwellers on this earth such as Easter Island, Stonehenge, Pyramids, and the Sphinx. Many other cultures have used the healing techniques of the stones such as the Kahunas of Hawaii, Philppines, Russians, Maya Indians, Romans, Japanese and even cowboys placing warm stones under their bedding at night. The American Indians call the stones, the Stone Clan People (stones, rocks, boulders).  
            
 
The Indians realized that in order to heal one's body, one also has to heal mind, feelings and spirit.  LaStone blends the benefits of Swedish, deep muscle, acupressure, thermotherapy and energy balancing healing techniques to assist a client's healing on all levels. Basalt stones are used for warmth and marble stones are used for cooling. Alternating the cold and hot stones creates what Mary calls a "vascular gymnastics" of the circulatory system. This means physiologically, the chemical reaction of blood and lymph exchange is accelerated with the use of hot and cold stones. This is the experience of Yin and Yang and encouraging them in union. The therapists makes certain the temperature of the stones is comfortable for the client. During the session a client will experience stones placed on areas of their body and stones massaged in a particular pattern that produces a deep, meditative, peaceful state creating an environment for dimensions of self to come into balance.  
 
LaStone is a nuturing massage that strips you of your burdens and carries you into bliss.
