Question:

My 19-year-old daughter, who’s at university’ suffers from impetigo on her face, which she finds distressing. She has been prescribed antibiotic ointment, but this only clears the spots for a while. They tend to appear at certain times of the month. Is there an alternative treatment?

Answer:

This common skin infection is caused by bacteria. It  affect the inner (epidermal) layer of the skin. As the infection develops, fluid accumulates forming a pustule. When this bursts, a honey-coloured crust forms around it impetigo attacks normal skin and also sometime occurs when there is another problem such as acne or eczema. Having it on your face is embarrassing and I sympathise with your daughter’s distress.

The usual treatment is to gently ‘remove the crusts with Savlon or saltwater, and use both topical antibiotics and systemic  oral ones to fight the bacteria. This is usually effective. However, since your daughter is suffering reacurrent infections and the skin lesions appear at certain times of the month, we have to look at the problem a little differently. The fact that she is attracting the infection shows: that her immune system is not strong enough.

Question:

Every year, around April and May, I get hay fever. Sometimes it goes on through summer. I’ve read that you canprevent it if you start taking steps early on. Is that true, and, if so, what do you suggest?

Answer:

Some diseases – such as hay fever – are seasonal. They are proof that we are Part of nature and directly influenced by the environment. The sun, moon and even the planets can have a direct effect on our health. For example, on the day of a full moon, people tend to have headaches, be more irritable and feel tired. The animal kingdom goes berserk when there is an eclipse. Unfortunately, many Western-trained doctors and scientists see these natural cycles as irrelevant to health.

For the key to hay fever, you have to go back to the winter. When the earth freezes, germs and viruses are threatened and look for hosts in which they can survive and multiply. When they find a weak body- run-down, stressed and deficient in nutrients – they invade it This Person not only harbours the infection but can spread k to others who are equally rundown. This starts the chain of a flu epidemic. During the winter months,

We have spent most of our time in discussing the conventional medicine in treating infertility caused by polyscystic ovarian syndrome.

How to Fall Pregnant Faster Despite Medical Problems.

To fall pregnant faster you need to identify the exact day of ovulation. This is important especially when you are getting older or having medical problems.

Why is this?

Well, it is because a young woman is fertile only a few days in a month. When you get older or have any health problems ovulation (egg release) becomes rarer. It may happen once in 2-3 month or even more rarely.

So, when a woman is fertile for only 1-2 days in 2-3-4 months it gets very complicated to pinpoint their fertile days. And often this is only the reason why a pregnancy does not occur.

The best way to identify your ovulation day is by using a natural method. Identifying ovulation time with special devises can lead to mistakes, especially devises that check the level of hormones in the urine. The level of hormones in urine increases later then it happens in the blood. So, when you see your ovulation time on a urine analysis devise it could be too late, especially in older women as the egg has already been released. 

Secondly, when you identify you ovulation time it is important to deliver the highest amount of

Rapid onset-fast acting insulin

Rapid onset-fast acting insulin always looks clear. It is fast acting and starts to work within one to 20 minutes. It peaks about one hour later and lasts from three to five hours. When you use this type of insulin, you must eat immediately after you inject.

The two rapid onset-fast acting insulin types currently available are:

1. NovoRapid (Insulin Aspart)
2. Humalog (Lispro).

Short acting insulin

Short acting insulins always look clear. They begin to lower blood glucose levels within half an hour, so you need to have your injection half an hour before eating.

Short acting insulin has a peak effect at two to four hours, and lasts for between six and eight hours. Short acting insulin types currently available include:

1. Actrapid
2. Humulin
3. Hypurin Neutral (bovine – highly purified beef insulin).

Intermediate acting insulin

Intermediate acting insulins always look cloudy. They have either protamine or zinc added to delay their action. These insulins begin to work about 90 minutes after you inject, peak at four to 12 hours,
