A red dye in shellfish has many health benefits. Astaxanthin can be applied to the skin for protection against damaging ultraviolet rays and sunburn, explains WebMD. It also functions as a powerful antioxidant to prevent inflammation throughout the body by lowering inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein. Additionally, it has been used to prevent cancer and to treat Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease, high cholesterol and stroke.

Spring 2014 I began having leech therapy treatments by Andrew Plucinski of SilesianHolisticCenter in Greenpoint Brooklyn, NYC. Phone 646 460 4212. The treatment protocol began with detox treatments for liver, pancreas, kidney, nervous system, heart and this treatment shown in 2 videos is for brain and emotional health. The treatment can benefit people who suffer from hypertension, migraine, nervous anxiety, depression, poor memory, and mood swings. It involves placing 2 live leeches on the bone behind each ear. The leeches exude saliva containing many beneficial enzymes that thin the blood, kill infection and enhance blood pressure and circulation, reduce pain and release endorphins to enhance mood. https://www.dropbox.com/s/wxv3q7xhf32ku8c/2014-05-01%2015.44.20.mov https://www.dropbox.com/s/igq2oxlqvg8trki/2014-05-01%2015.56.05.mov

Leech therapy uses the saliva of live leeches placed on the body to regulate under-functioning organs, detoxify the body, reduce pain, and build immunity. It can unblock blood vessels troubled by plaque, reduce arthritis pain, migraine and many other illnesses. This treatment for pancreas is useful for diabetes and weight loss. It may also improve cravings for sweets which underlie blood sugar problems, cloudy thinking, depression, and anxiety. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bk1LTJVsG4Q My leech treatments have been very successful and I will continue. So far I have had two detox treatments for the liver, one for my neck, one for pancreas. After the first liver treatment, I felt calmer and had less overall chronic pain. The surprising treatment was for the back of my neck – it reached to my carpal tunnel and relieved it completely for several days. My neck felt supple, I could move it more than I could in years. Chiropractors have been afraid to adjust my neck due to bone spurs near the spine. But now it moves, feels wonderful and carpal tunnel is 70 – 80% gone without surgery. Today’s treatment for spleen is too soon to tell. I feel calm, happy, encouraged to continue. Andrew Plucinski is a pleasure to work with. He is patient, informative, professional and expert. Continuum Center for Health and Healing in Chelsea used to give leech treatments for arthritis of the knee at $600 per treatment !! (no insurance accepted) with good results lasting for 6 months. But they gave it up because according to the therapist, it required followup. That means you have to be willing to change your own bandages – I ooze for 12 hours or so lymph fluid after treatments. That is the point – in the lymph are poisons leaving the body. So there is mess involved, time and a little money – nothing like a medical treatment price. Andrew charges $40 per leech and the number varies, often 4 at a time, according to the treatment. I recommend the treatment along with a detox diet for yearly spring detox. The rewards are countless.
Walking through the beautiful Fruit and Spice Park in Homestead, Florida I see large pods growing on trees. Inside are cacao beans, the Brits called them cocoa, and they are used to make chocolate. Cacao or Cocoa is the most super of the superfoods, a high source of essential minerals, antioxidants and mood elevators. Pure dried cocoa bean contains no sugar and healthy fat. Shaped like an almond, it has a bitter/sweet flavor that satisfies your chocolate hunger as it boosts energy and mood. You can use it as a weight loss food. Do you crave chocolate during your PMS or other stress? Cocoa stimulates the production of feel-good brain chemicals.
Below is a video I made in Vermont in October 2010. You will see the lovely autumn colors and a bird flitting on the porch in the background. It contains advice for autumn herbs and supplements necessary to build bone and prevent stress and illness. To these I would add seaweed because seaweed is the fruit of the sea and the sea is the “blood” of the earth. Our blood, muscle, nerves, and bones require sea minerals. You can add kelp, dulse, or nori to your meals. Add 2 – 3 tablespoons of kelp powder to your bath to moisturize your skin and absorb vital minerals. I hope you enjoy it. http://youtu.be/VUcxs9dBu98
Are you outside in the cold raking leaves, shoveling snow? You need to stay warm to avoid aches, cramps, weakness and hypothermia. If you start to feel tired, depressed, or have numb extremities after being outside in cold weather take a pinch of cinnamon and place it on your tongue or in a cup of warm water. This hot, sweet cooking spice will help you to sweat out chills and prevent colds, flu, weakness, aches and other signs of exposure to cold weather conditions. Is eating a cinnamon roll good enough? No. To get the energy benefits of a spice you have to eat or drink it like a tea separated from other food and beverages. Cinnamon can also be used by girls who have a painful menstruation that feels better after the flow starts. They tend to be weak, pale, and chilled. Cinnamon stimulates blood circulation. That is how it helps eliminate pain. Do you obsess about problems? Some health experts recommend cinnamon as a way to refresh mental as well as physical vitality. Cinnamon is also highly recommended for regular use in diabetes. To improve insulin uptake, add 1/4 tsp of cinnamon powder daily to tea, oatmeal or water.
March winds will carry fallout from Japan’s nuclear disaster from West to East. Radiation will affect islands in the Pacific and the American West coast within ten days of the first explosion. What can you do to prevent contamination? The usual suggestions are basic: Get away from the radiation source as quickly as possible; when exposed, scrub your body with soap and water and discard your clothing; avoid dairy products and fresh produce grown in a contamination area; and take iodine. The thyroid absorbs radiation to cause havoc with health. Taking a healthy source of natural iodine supplements the thyroid so that it absorbs less radiation. Many experts recommend brown seaweed Laminaria Japanica as a protection against cancers and cardiovascular problems from exposure to radiation.
