Do you have green urine?

Once in a while, I will receive an email asking about green urine. To share with all of you who is reading this blog, green urine can be normal or a serious problem.

Let's understand how did green urine comes about.
  1. Did you make any changes to existing diet?
  2. Have you been taking a lot of Asparagus recently?
  3. Did you take a lot of B-complex recently?
  4. Are you on certain medications?
If your answer is yes to any of the above questions, then it can be the reason why you are having green urine.

On the other hand, let's say your answer is "I don't know". Let's look at your urine again. Is it a brighter green or darker green?

A brighter green indicates that you have taken too much B-complex. You may want to reduce it. If not, just let it be. Drink lots of water and do more exercise.

If it is a darker green, then it indicates that you may have a bile problem or urinary tract infections.

Bile problem usually is related to gallstones or Liver. Click here on how to detox and remove your gallstones without any surgery

Lastly, this is the most critical question. Do you feel any pain or ache in your lower back area? if you do, I will seriously advise you to see a doctor and do a thorough checkup on your kidney.

Did you have Natural Birth or Caesarean? What about 1 month?

Whether you have natural birth or Caesarean, you need special nutrients to revitalize your body. Of course, the nutritional requirements for both are different. By the way, this blog entry is for ladies and of course, if your wife is pregnant, this blog entry is important too.

And one more thing to note, because I'm a Chinese, hence, I believe certain types of foods are not suitable to take after giving birth.
  1. Take only warm food. No cold food is allowed.
  2. Take only warm water. It is best to drink clean water. No caffeinated drinks.
  3. Take good protein rich food. Avoid simple carbohydrate food. You don't want to put on weight quickly.
If you have gone through Natural Birth, you would have lost a lots of blood. That means, lots of water soluble vitamins and minerals were lost. If you have Caesarean, beside losing lots of blood, your Liver would have worked extra hard trying to neutralize the anesthesia. If you have used epidural, your Liver is working harder.

Before recommending supplements, let's understand the need.
  1. We need to repair damaged tissue.
  2. If you have Caesarean, you want the scar to disappear as much as possible.
  3. If you have Natural Birth, you may feel sore and it is important to get it heal asap.
Supplements:

Breakfast:

Take Power Breakfast every morning. Follow this link. I will encourage you to use soya milk instead of cow's milk. Fruits should be in room temperature.

After taking Power Breakfast, take 3 capsules of multi-carotene, 1 capsule of Omega Salmon Fish Oil and EPO Plus. Do not take EPO Plus when your menses arrive. Take 1 tablet of Milk Thistle.

Follow these for lunch, dinner and before sleep.
  • Double X: -/1/1/-
  • Multi-carotene: -/3/3/3 If skin turn orange, stop taking.
  • Bio-C: -/4/4/4 If possible, take more than 4000mg per day.
  • Lecithin E: -/4/4/4 If possible, take more than 16 tablets per day. It helps to heal the scar.
  • Salmon Fish Oil: -/1/1/-
  • EPO Plus: -/1/1/- Do not take when menses arrive.
  • Protein Powder: -/2/2/-
  • B-complex: -/6/6/-
  • Calcium Magnesium: -/2/2/-
  • Milk Thistle: -/1/1/1
Also, beside taking these supplements, take as much nutritious food as possible. I believe your mum will be cooking a lot of good stuffs for you. Making you eat as much as possible. Just remember, take only warm food. Anything from the fridge must be put outside.

By the way, do you know what is baby one month celebration? In the past, baby mortality rate is pretty high. If a baby can survive one month, the entire village will celebrate for the baby surviving the one month period. However, if you look at the current situation, baby will definitely survive the first month. On the contrary, can the mother survive one month? Nowadays, most mother tends to eat less during pregnancy, or they try not to eat or they don't take nutritious food at all. After delivery, they are pretty weak and we can almost certain most new-age mother doesn't have much milk for the baby. This will create future health challenges for the baby.

Lastly, if you are breast-feeding, your breast milk depends a lot on what you eat. And what you eat, will determine your baby's health. If you are not breast feeding, then your baby is lacking all the essential nutrients. Especially good bacterial. Hence, observe your diet closely. If you are the husband reading this blog, then, it is your responsibility to help your wife.

CHEERS!!!

How do we burn fats?

Everybody is trying to lose weight. Whether they are fats or not. Whether they are over-weight or not. Whether whether and whether...

Here's the situations, many of us do not know how does weight lose comes about. We only know that we have to stop eating certain food, starve ourselves and replace certain meals. However, once we achieve our desired weight and go back to our original diet, our body goes back to its original weight or more. Isn't that exciting? We must really understand how does our body burn fats in order to lose weight effectively. Yes, we have to exercise. However, have you heard your friend saying that I have done this or that and yet, no result? Let's understand why.

Our body has stored energy called glycogen. Glycogen is stored by the Liver as our body first level of backup tank fuel. Our secondary backup tank fuel is our body fats. So, how can we start using our secondary backup tank fuel? It is by using up our first backup tank fuel. Then, your next question will be, how do we use up our first tank fuel?

Here's the situation. Let's say our body has a burnt rate of 10 calories per 10 minutes. That means, it burns 60 calories per hour. Let's say a bowl of rice and a scoop of protein have 100 calories each. This is just an example, not real.

If we eat a bowl of white rice, the body quickly turn the white rice to glucose in the body immediately. That means, right now you have 100 calories lying around in the body. Because the body can only use 10 calories every 10 minutes, you will have left with 90 calories lying around in the body. Now, the body has to store this spare calories. First place to store is our Liver. That is where we get our glycogen. Let's say the glycogen warehouse is full, what's next? Well, the body will turn it into fats and that's how we put on weight. This is the reason why many people eating fish soup will never lose weight. This is because the noodles will turn into glucose fast and the body can't use it straight away.

Let's take another example. As we mentioned earlier, 1 scoop of protein is also 100 calories. And for protein, it is different from white rice. The body takes a longer time to digest and thus, the body is releasing 10 calories from protein every 10 minutes. What does that mean? It means our body is effectively using up all the protein that we take. Will there be any unused calories lying around? Well, the answer is no. Since there is no unused energy lying around and you are either walking 10,000 steps or jogging, the body needs to start using its backup fuel. The first level will be glycogen from the Liver. Once that is used up, the next backup fuel will be our fats. In order for this process to kick in, it will take about 3 days.

Once our body starts burning fats, the by-products ketone will be released. We need to remove ketone from the body by drinking lots of water. By this time, our free-radical level is high too. Take lots of anti-oxidants such as Bio-C, multi-carotene and Lecithin E.

Lastly, just let the body continue to burn fats as long as you like until you reach your desired weight. Remember, drinks lots of water and take lots of anti-oxidants.

Lose Weight 123

There are many ways to lose weight, I will propose an easier way to do it. It is adapted from Health Pointe 2.0. However, it will be better if you can do Health Pointe 2.0. It will give you better results.

Before you start this program, please read "how do we burn fats?" It will give you a better idea how and why this program work.

Supplements required:
  • Protein Powder: This is to ensure that your daily protein ratio is higher than your carbohydrates. Protein is the basic foundation of the body makeup. Usually, meats, beans and nuts will contain proteins. However, these are not recommended for long term intakes because of digestion challenges.
  • B-complex: To improve metabolism.
  • Lecithin E: Lecithin helps to remove fat from the body. Vitamin E improves elasticity of the skin. Take it with Bio-C to have a perfect skin.
  • Calcium Magnesium: To improve mineral balance.
  • Double X: Multi-vitamin to balance.
Basic:

Protein Powder: 2 scoops before each meal. If you are skipping any of your meal, you still have to take 2 scoops of protein powder.

B-complex: Always take 3 tablets is to 1 scoop of protein powder. That means, 6 tablets of B-complex for each meal. If you are taking Double X in that meal, reduce 1 tablet of B-complex.

Calcium Magnesium: take 1 tablet is to 1 scoop of protein powder. That means, 2 tablets of calcium magnesium for each meal, together with your 6 tablets B-complex and 2 scoops of protein powder.

Double X: Take as per instructions. 2 times a day. Once in the morning and once in the evening.

Optional but good to take:

Lecithin E: Take as many as you want. To have good results, take at least 4 tablets 4 times a day.

Bio-C: Take 4 tablets 4 times a day together with Protein Powder and Lecithin E. This combination will give you beautiful skin.

Drinks lots of WTS water. If not, at least mineral water. Not those distilled water.

Other equipments:
  • Keto-Diastix sticks
  • Weighing machine that can measure both fats and water
  • A pedo meter
Exercise Routine:
  • Walk at least 10,000 steps per day
  • If you have lost about 2 kg, start challenging yourself by ensuring 5% of your 10,000 steps are vertical steps.
  • For every 2 kg you lost, increase your vertical steps percentage by 1% until a maximum of 10% of your 10,000 steps. Of course, if you can do more, why not?
  • If you are running on that day, then you don't need to do 10,000 steps.

If you follow these instructions 100% and reduce your carbo intake, your body should start burning fats on the 3rd day. On the 3rd or 4th day morning, use the Keto-Diastix stick to test your urine. It will show that you are burning fats. If it didn't happen, it means you have to increase your protein intake and exercise more. Once you start burning fats, increase your exercise activities and maintain what you have been doing the previous day. Just continue doing it until you reach your idea weight. Take your urine daily, first thing in the morning.

The critical factor of success are as follows:

  • Always take 2 scoops of protein powder before each meal. Even you skip your breakfast, you still have to take 2 scoops of protein powder.
  • Listen to your body needs after taking 2 scoop of protein powder. You should be eating less, not more.
  • You should be reducing your intake of carbohydrates. Especially rice, noodles and etc... Even if you are drinking fish soup noodles, that noodles is the culprit.
  • 10,000 steps are a good start. Vertical steps are even better. 10,000 steps plus vertical steps plus some form of gym exercises are the best.
  • Your protein intake ratio must always be higher than your carbohydrates intake. For example, if you drink fish soup noodle, the protein intake from the fish is lower than the noodle. Thus, people will never lose by following this kind of formula.
  • Drink lots of, lots of, lots of water.
  • Lastly, you should take at least 3 tin of protein powder before stopping these weight management program.

Kidney Disease (Renal Failure)

I'm writing this for someone with a big heart. Someone whom I get to know better through someone he loves and cares a lot. For some people, they may think it only happens in TV shows or movies. But I think, if you get to see it in the screen, definitely, someone has experienced it before.

These supplements are recommended for someone who are experiencing renal failure. I hope these supplements will help whoever out there to improve their health tremendously.
  1. Nutri Bifidus: 1/1/1/- Especially for those who are taking anti-biotics.
  2. Protein powder: 1/1/-/-
  3. B-complex: 3/3/3/3 - Reduce fluid retention and improve metabolism. If cannot sleep at night, don't take before sleep.
  4. Bio-C: 4/4/4/4 - Boosts immune system and improve healing.
  5. Calcium Magnesium: 1/1/-/- For proper mineral balance.
  6. Lecithin E: 4/4/4/4 - Promotes immune system.
  7. Double X: 1/1/1- Proper mineral balance.
  8. Multi-carotene: 3/3/3/3 - If skin turn orange, stop.
  9. Milk Thistle: 5/-/-5. Improve Liver function and aids excretion of kidney's waste.
Diet of a renal failure person must be very careful. Any toxins that go into the body will affect the Liver and that will eventually increase the load to the Kidney. The failure of the kidney is due to the Liver. And with renal failure, kidney is unable to cleanse the blood and the toxic blood flow backs to the Liver and affects it tremendously and thus, it becomes a vicious cycle. This is why kidney dialysis is required.
  • It is critical to have a diet of 75% raw foods. Eat vegetables and fruits at room temperature. Always eat fruits before anything. Any indigestion will lead to toxic build up. BTW, eat organic.
  • Protein is important. It contains arginine that is beneficial to kidney.
  • Do not use any table salt or potassium chloride. Reduce your intake of potassium and phosphates.
  • Avoid seafood that has no scales. Squids and Crabs are good examples.
  • Reduce intake of animal protein.
  • Drinks lots of WTS water and this should be your only source of fluid.
  • Avoid all diary products.
A renal failure person should make some adjustment to their power breakfast. Here's the formula:
  1. WTS Water
  2. 2 x Green Apple (Room Temperature)
  3. Active 8
  4. 4 x Bio-C
  5. 4 x B-complex
  6. 2 x Calcium Magnesium
  7. 1 scoop of protein powder
  8. Positrim either 1/2 or 1 packet
  9. 1 x Daily
  10. 1 x Ginseng and Gingko Biloba
  11. 4 x Lecithin E
After taking the power breakfast, take the following supplements:
  1. 1 x Nutri Bifidus
  2. 3 x Multi-carotene
  3. 5 x Milk Thistle
Supplementation for both Lunch and Dinner will be as per described in the first section. Remember, eat raw and eat more, but eat less. Eat many more meals per day but eat less portion of it. Eat more organic whenever it is possible. Alway room temperature.

BTW, do consult your doctor.

If you travel, breakfast how?

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Taking a good breakfast starts the day on the right foot. If we eat tons of rubbish food in the morning, it will affect the body in the entire day.

Here are my recommendations:

1) If you don't like to eat fruits, then drink as much freshly squeezed fruit juice as possible. Drink to your limit.

2) After drinking your juices, rest for a while. Your next plate of food should be full of fibre. Takes lots of muesli with soya milk or yoghurt. If you don't like muesli, take corn flakes or whatever. Fill up your stomach with fibre as much as possible. When we travel, our bowel movement is always affected. Thus, taking fibre in the morning helps to reduce this problem.

3) Should you want to take good protein in the morning, avoid your favourite sunny side up or omelette. They are oily and it is bad protein. Our Liver will have a hard time breaking down this protein. I will encourage you to take poach or hard boil egg, even though they are not nice.

4) Lastly, go for some brown or wholemeal bread. If you are still not full, then eat the rest of the stuffs, but not too much.

Healthy Forever Disc 6 - Liang Zhi Da

Spread of cancer is due to accumulation of toxins in the blood.

Blood belongs to the body circulatory system. That means, whether it is clean or dirty. It will flow in the body. If filtration fails, toxins will accumulate. What is the largest filter organs in the body? That is Liver.

When dirty blood passes through the Liver, it will store in the Liver for cleansing before it leaves the Liver. If the Liver is impaired, dirty blood will flow out of the Liver and goes to the next organ. That is our kidney. It is not the kidney job to filter the blood. If this continues for a long time, kidney wil fail. When kidney fails, toxins will flow back to the body and it will circulate in the body.

This is what we called azotaemia. It means the blood is very toxic due to accumulation of waste products. That is the start of serious health problems. When the toxins in the blood accumulates to certain level and the kidneys cannot handle it any more, uraemia will happen. By this time, the body will have about 30 days or just a couple of weeks to survive.

Because the body does not allow toxins to flow in itself, it will accumulate the toxins and store it in one fix locations and the white blood cells will surround it, preventing it from spreading. When that happens, tumour will form.

When cancer is discovered, you still have about 3 months or more to live. This will give you opportunity to change your diet, lifestyle and do detox.

More about our Liver:
  • It is one of the largest organ in the body.
  • It has a lot of small blood vessels to do filtration.
  • Blood flow into the Liver slowly. This is to allow the Liver to filter the blood.
  • If dirty blood gets into the Liver, it will affect the Liver.
  • The next organ that is very close to Liver is the gall bladder.
Gall bladder problem: There are 2 types of gall bladder problems: inflammation or gall stone.

1) How does Stomach digest?

Small intestine absorb. Liver is to differentiate between the good and the bad. If it is nutrients for the body, it will be send to the heart and the heart will pump it to different part of the body. If it is toxins, it will go either to the kidneys or the lung.

Western medicine is toxic. Thus, the Liver cannot allow it to circulate in the body. Hence, this toxins will accumulate in the body.

2) Breakdown of toxins to non-toxic waste.

This is to allow the body to remove the waste either through kidney or lung. There is a lot of toxins in water. Hence, we need to drink treated water. Many treated water is empty water. Thus, do not drink empty water.

Also, meat is very toxic. The more fattening it is, the more toxic it will be.

Toxins in vegetables are from pesticides. Remember to vegetable wash or Amway dishdrop to clean it.

Alcohol toxins damage Liver slowly. It is a silence killer.

3) Liver ability to store glucose, carotene, vitamin E, D and some vitamins B also determines the health of Liver.

When Liver is unable to store glucoses, body will experience fatigue. Glucose gives energy to the body. Thus, Liver problem patients tend to get tire easily. When we eat food, it will be converted to glucose to give us energy. And part of it is stored in the Liver. If Liver cannot store glucose and the body cannot burn or finish using it, it will be converted to fat as stored energy. That is when people is fat, they are weak.

4) Liver has the amazing ability to create and produce protein, lecithin, cholesterol and etc.

If Liver is impaired, then it will affect lecithin production. Liver produces 80% of lecithin in the body. If liver cannot produce lecithin, then it will affect the cholesterol level in the body. Because of too much cholesterol in ht body, this cholesterol will stick to unwanted waste in the blood or in the gall bladder to form gall stone. How to solve this problem? Reduces cholesterol intake and increases lecithin intake. This will help to improve the Liver conditions.

High cholesterol is due to eating too much animal organs or fats. Animal organ has the highest amount of bad cholesterol.

Old people has to take note, not to take seafood with no scales. Squids and crabs are seafood with no scale. These seafood has high amount of cholesterol. All these stuffs are bad for old people.

5) If Liver is affected, one of the problem will be thyroid.

6) When production of bile drops, the digestive system will have problem breaking down fats. then, you may start to have eczema. Most skin problems are related to inability to breakdown fats properly.

Also, unable to breakdown or metabolize fats will affect woman's health. Most woman's health problem are related to their reproductive system. Why? Eat too much oil. Imbalance of fat ratio. For man, prostate problem is also related to too much fatty food. Fatty food causes prostate to enlarge. Once it is enlarged, it will affect urine flow. Once urine flow is affected, bacteria will accumulate and inflammation of prostate will develop. Once inflammation starts, it will develop prostate cancer. So, fatty food is dangerous. Reduce your fatty food intake.

Liver controls hormone productions.
  1. Man will have more female hormone. Breast area enlarge.
  2. Woman will have more male hormone. Starts to have more hair growth above lips area. Woman start having mustache.
Inflammation of Liver -> Hardening of Liver -> Liver Cancer. Liver cancer is the highest death rate.

Remember, people seldom get sick tends not to look after their health. Once they get sick, they may not get up again.

Your health is not just for yourself. It is also affects the people around you. There are 5 types of Liver problem.
  1. Acute Liver failure
  2. Liver Cancer
  3. Chronic Liver Disease such as hepatitis B
  4. Hardening of Liver
  5. Fatty Liver
To have a healthy Liver, is to have a balanced diet, good lifestyle and good supplementation of vitamins.

Liver problems have 4 symptoms:
  1. Jaundice. Yellow discolouration of skin and eye. Yellow discolouration of urine is due to vitamin B12.
  2. Pain in Liver area. If you always feel pain in the area, then you have a serious Liver problem. Most likely, you may have a fatty Liver. Liver is protected by our right rib cage.
  3. If you always feel like vomitting or disgusted. This is a symptom of Liver problem.
  4. Constantly feeling fatigue. If can lie down, the person will choose to lie down. If he can sit, he will choose to sit instead of stand. If he has to stand, he needs support. This is a symptom of fatigue.
What is bad for Liver?
  1. Rubbish food.
  2. Bad lifestyle. Sleep very late. Always sleep before 1ppm. Why sleep late affect Liver? Because lying down allow the Liver to receive 4 times more blood than sitting. That is why once you lie down, Liver will have more blood. More blood means more nourishment to the Liver with oxygen and nutrients. Then, the Liver will have chance to repair and recover. You have to lie to show plan. Just don't stay late. Sleep before 11pm.
  3. Quick temper affects the Liver.
  4. Long term medication will also affects the Liver.
There was once when the speaker went to Zhejiang China to give talk. There was this driver who drove him to the hotel. He said he is director of Cardioneurology in the local biggest hospital. He said he has high blood pressure and the speaker asked him whether he took medicine. The director said he does not take any medicine. In fact, he has been resisting it for more than 10 years. So, the speaker asked him why? The director told him that doctors know that long term in take of these medications will lead to erectile dysfunction.

Thus, medicines do not hurt you now. But it will definitely hurt you in the future.

How to take care of Liver?
  1. Learn to relax. The more we relax, the better our Liver will be.
  2. Don't stress ourselves. Don't over work.
  3. Rest as much as possible.
  4. Improve your blood flow. Take Salmon Fish Oil and Lecithin E.
  5. Take Power Breakfast
  6. Exercise and Rest. Do brisk walking, breath fresh air and sleep early.
  7. Drink 1 litre of vegetable juices.
  8. Drink 2 litre of water treatment system.
  9. Stop eating rubbish food.
  10. Stop eating meat and seafood with no scales like squids and crabs.
  11. Take lots of local seasonal fruits.
  12. Take reasonable amount of supplements.
Our life cannot purely depend on Nutrilite. We have to focus on our lifestyle and food.

Recommendation for Nutrilite that is good for the Liver:
  1. Protein Powder
  2. Daily
  3. B-complex
  4. Bio-C
  5. Calcium Magnesium
  6. Salmon Fish Oil
  7. Lecithin E
  8. Multi-carotene
  9. Milk Thistle
  10. COQ10
  11. Garlic and Licorice
