HEADER: Mt. Shasta Integrative Medicine

Dear Friends and Colleagues, 

 

 Summer is a great time to Clean Up, Detox, and Slim Down for Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual Health
"Becoming Real" - Rose Kumar MD 
Have you seen enough of what is happening in the American health care system? Have you experienced enough of the passive and reactive disease focused model of "Health Care"? 
And the most important question is "Are you ready to make a change starting from you, yes you first, not the government, not your families/your friends/your neighbors?" 
The Tibetan word for compassion, 'Tse-wa', refers to an attitude or state of mind that includes not only a wish for the welfare of others, a wish for others to be free of their suffering, but also a wish for good things for oneself. 
"We must be the change we want to see in the world" 
"So seriously Dr. Lu, how often do I need to detox and how do I do it safely?" 
      "I have seen the sad, dark consequences of a toxin overloaded body, mind, emotion and spirit; I have also witnessed the incredible joy and healing when people bravely detox physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually". It is absolutely amazing and liberating to see and hear how a simple detoxification path can enlighten the sickest body and soul bringing the dying and the hopeless to the light and joy of living. That is why I strongly believe DETOXIFICATION AT ALL 4 levels as a way of life. 

 

1. Detoxify the cells everyday (our liver is not dirty, our trillions of cells in your body are- Dr. Bernhoft MD) and balance your immune system while detoxification itself can tip the balance of our sensitive immune response.
        In general I believe everyone should adopt a daily cellular cleansing supplement routine (1) containing key nutrients to support the body's natural detoxification process (2)while eating a predominantly organic, vegetarian diet (9-13 servings of organic fruits and vegetables a day) and (3) consuming at least half of your body weight number oz of clean filtered water.  Among all the important enzymatic process of detoxification, Glucuronidation is the body's primary defense against cancer-causing agents.  A nutrient "D-Glucarate" helps remove toxins and carcinogens from the body by supporting this very powerful and key step in cellular detox. 

2. Support the liver and be aware of the genetic individualism which can determine why 6% people (with single nucleotide polymorphism) are associated with having trouble dealing with detoxification and often face a much higher risk of having chronic diseases at a much younger age and in a much more harmful fashion. The good news is that DNA can be activated in a positive or negative fashion based upon the quality of the environment in which it is placed. Now that is very empowering to know: "Genes raise the guns, environmental factors pull the triggers" and knowing we all have a choice to design and live the life we want in brilliant health and longevity.
       When the toxins are flowing through the liver, we want to make sure the liver can process this as fast as possible. The following map shows which supplements and phyto-nutrients that best support this process. These are important to have in your daily regimen to support a healthy liver.

3. Support effective elimination- open all channels of elimination: Make sure these harmless water soluble toxins are quickly and safely eliminated through the digestive track, kidneys/bladder, skin and in women via the menstrual cycle. The female cycle is often seen as an additional channel of elimination during reproductive years where a healthy menstrual flow can provide a monthly purge of toxins.

4. Prevent toxins' recycling at every single stage. The key points?
 Warm body does it better,
 2-3 bowel movements a day and
 Exercise and sweat
        Our bodies are very effective and efficient at recycling hormones and bile. Unfortunately our body recycles toxins as well. Consuming lots of fiber will absorb the toxins.
Orenda's Clean Burn and Shape program has been one of the simplest and healthiest programs for busy people who want to unload some toxic weight and belly fat with real organic healthy food.

5. Detoxify your life: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual: Do we have old beliefs? Are they working for us? Are they clogging up our life and blocking our path to living the truth? It is time to let it go for good. 

OK summer is also for LOVE: let's have some fun while removing toxic and negative stuff shall we?

Is your Experience Juicy and Spontaneous?

 

      Did you know that vaginal dryness is a common symptom during menopausal and post menopausal years, even though women can have these symptoms at any age? Vaginal dryness is the hallmark sign of vaginal atrophy/atrophic vaginitis which comes from aging, stress and hormonal loss.        This can cause inflammation and atrophic vaginitis. Despite the high number of women experiencing symptoms related to vaginal dryness it's viewed as a silent condition since many women feel embarrassed to share with their partners, friends or even doctors. This condition creates so much discomfort women pull away from their partners usually suffering in silence.
       I have found a vaginal rejuvenation system that can put the juice and spontaneity back into your life.

Testimonial of the Month
        
      My name is Sara Kallstrom, I am a 32 year old mother of three children who spent my young adult life defeating the odds of being a young single mother. I have always been too tough to let anything get me down, and I sure wasn't going to let my health get me down.  
     I have spent most of my life in pain, tired, and as I became older I got heavier. Especially after a total thyroidectomy in 2012 that I thought was going to be the cure all. I was led to believe that my energy would come back, my pain would be gone, my heart palpitations, my body shakes and high blood pressure would all vanish.  
But then, without a thyroid I felt more unconnected to my body than ever. I was lost, because I felt worse. 
     I am on a mission to dig to the root of the problem, I was no longer going to accept a cover-up for the symptoms I was feeling. That is when I found Dr. Lu. 
   Through the knowledge and empowerment of Dr. Lu and Orenda, I am now becoming stronger, not only on the outside, but also on the inside. For the first time in my life, I can feel confident in my body, skin and well being.
Thank you so much!!!
