How important is good digestion?good digestion is (at least) as important as good food. If one’s food is perfect but ferments in the stomach and decays in the intestine, it enters the blood stream as what? – a poison.  Spoiled food is deadly, and that which spoils in the body is as poisonous as that which spoils outside the body. a poor diet well digested will do the body more good than good food if it is not well digested.Does your dietary intake of food supply you with the necessary nutrients to maintain superb health?  many of us that have made sweeping reforms in our diets will, unhesitatingly, reply yes.  then, why are we and our families falling sick, symptoms of ill health?

Basis of good digestion – enzyme powerHow can we be free of disease, the condition of ill-health, as God intends? Apparently, the answer lies in the proper digestion and absorption of foods you eat.  No matter how high the quality of your foods, no matter how carefully, painstakingly prepared, you still run the risk of declining health if your food does not feed you.  That’s right – your food must feed your system all of its nutrients and this is accomplished by proper digestion by enzymes.  If you lack digestive enzymes, then digestion works against your health by failing to extract vital life-giving vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates – essential to human life & health.

How do we rebuild enzyme power?If good digestion and absorption requires good enzyme power to actually do the work of digesting food material; then we must understand how to obtain the maximum power from our digestive enzymes. (Good digestion begins in your mouth!).  This means you must chew more if you expect enzymes to do a good job. the first enzyme in the digestive tract is found in the saliva of the mouth.  to be completely digested, all starches should be thoroughly chewed.We can indeed enter into the realm of an enzyme’s experience.  If we chew a dry piece of bread or toast, or any other starchy food thoroughly, the flavour will change to a distinct sweetness.  This increased sweetness is actually the digesting of the starches to simpler sugars.

Hasty eatingSeeing how important the process of chewing is to the proper digestion and absorption of nutrients, we will soon realise one outstanding reason why our Divine Dietician instructs his pupils in Proverbs 14:29 “But he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly”, for folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom.   Hasty eating is said to be the folly of our lives, we were born knowing the way to chew. 

The effect of hasty eatingThe food should be prepared for the stomach by thorough chewing to enable saliva enzymes to work on starchy foods.  since many people bolt in 10 minutes of chewing, digestion that should begin in the mouth is given no time to begin there, and the work that is not completed here must be done, if done at all, further down.  This is a very common cause of indigestion.If starches are bolted or washed down with liquids, the food passes by so quickly.  There is then added a burden on the starch-splitting enzymes in the small intestine, and often the starch digestion is incomplete, therefore, as is the case of all undigested food that passes from the body, they become lost nutrition that could have aided the body and are now useless waste to be removed.Unfortunately, before the neglected food leaves the body, it takes its toil.  Improperly chewed food requires more stomach muscle action, causing a strain in the digestive system because your stomach must work harder to accomplish what your flaws should have done.  This bears out the truth that as you gulp down your foods without vital chewing, you run the risk of cramps and stomach pains because of the vigorous activity of the stomach.  these are only some of the curses of hasty eating, with time, the curses become more pronounced.

Enjoy your well chewed meals from today and feel the difference!!

I was wondering when pregnancy symptoms begin to develop. my ex-girlfriend and I had sex about 3 weeks ago. She was supposed to have her period on tuesday, but it still hasnt come yet. She is freaking out about it. we didn't use a condom but i came on her stomach not in her. She hasnt had real signs of pregnancy the only thing is that she has missed her period. would she experience any symptoms?

Have her take a test. I know for a fact that I ovulated early and only realized this as signs of fertility weren't showing up in me when they normally would. At that point, I took EC 4-5 days after the first instance of unprotected sex, so I think it's too late. Right now, I am 10 days post ovulation, I believe and I'm having all kinds of symptoms. So, for some women, it can happen at 8 dpo or they can start to feel it soon after a missed period. It's really individual and about how tuned in a woman is to her body.

my senses got heightened at 2 weeks…. every thing got up my nose and i was constantly sneezing for 2-3 days straight… thats when i decided to take the test… as my periods weren't regular anyway… i put that down to being plus size and constantly trying to diet… but i got there in the end..

You can miss a period or delay a period if your dieting or stressing… or if your thinking about it too much…. take her mind off it and she'll carm down…. I found that if i stressed about coming on i'd find i didnt… but as soon as the test said negative i came on in about an hour…

Pregnancy symptoms differ from woman to woman and pregnancy to pregnancy; however, one of the most significant pregnancy symptoms is a delayed or missed menstrual cycle. Understanding the signs and symptoms of pregnancy is important because each symptom may be related to something other than pregnancy. some women experience signs or symptoms of pregnancy within a week of conception. for other women, pregnancy symptoms may develop over a few weeks or may not be present at all. Below is a listing of some of the most common pregnancy signs symptoms. if you have been sexually active and experiencing any of the following symptoms it is important to take a pregnancy test.

Even though you pulled out sperm can still get in her. it Only takes one sperm out of 5,000. She prob wouldnt be having any symptoms yet. I didnt start to have symptoms till I was 6 weeks or 8 weeks pregnant. Id go get a pregnancy test they are only like 4 dollars for the walmart brand one(which works just as well as the other brands). Good luck

Generally 2 weeks after sex at the earliest……most people get the nausea and vomiting and stuff at around 6 weeks though

My Girlfriend started having them 3 weeks after her period didn't come

Same situation was with me and my fella he pulled out and i was still pregnant to our shock… when it was explained by the DR he said that even thru sex mens sperm leaks… and that can still get u pregnant… which is what happened with me… so we learned a lesson even pullin out doesnt stop pregnancy only way to do that is condom or birth control… but then condoms are not 100%…
Best thing to do is for her to take a test and see what result she gets…
Good luck…

I think she should just get a test to see….

Some people know the day they got pregnant and some doesn't know for months later it all depends on how your body reacts to the pregnancy but i read somewhere that you can get symptoms @2-3 weeks. and yes even though you pulled out you can still get pregnant.

doesnt matter if u came on her stomach or not you can still get pregnant by using with pulling out method.
early symptoms would be tender breasts
stomach cramps
morning sickness

i would advise to get a test
good luck

my husband is having issues. he has had hemmroid problems before. he has never been like he was today, lots of pain in his lower back, stomach, and rectum. he refuses to go to the doctor. hardheaded.

I had colon cancer. My symptoms did not show up until the tumor got quite large. first sign was long periods of pain in the region of what seemed like my stomach which got worse as time went by until it was hurting all night long. next sign was sudden weight loss (4 pounds in one month without trying to lose weight). next symptom was tiredness (low iron because the tumor was bleeding). I could not see blood in my stool but a test I had run detected it. if he's got ongoing pain then he really should be seeing a gastroenterologist. It took me about a year and a half to figure out what was wrong with me after tests. thank God I was persistent because that is what saved me. I had surgery one year ago today, September 5th. I never dreamed I would ever get cancer and I was trying to do all the right things. It will be a huge mistake if he doesn't go to the doctor to find out what is wrong with him. It could cost him his life.

access info.com….for your search, type "symptoms of colon cancer" a list of websites appears, click on any website you choose.

So like I said I was recently diagnosed with gallstones but my symptoms are normal but weird… when I get upset my gallbladder hurts. when I lift heavy things it hurts and when I haven't ate anything or have an empty stomach or gas my stomach hurts.. also it happens after I have a fatty meal but not til the next day it seems like… Are these weird symptoms also symptoms of gallstones in my gallbladder???

Often within minutes of eating cereal containing wheat, I become extremely tired and can barely keep my eyes open. Could this be a reaction to a wheat or gluten sensitivity? I know it is only ONE possible symptom, but can it be the ONLY symptom? thanks!

It could be. the symptoms of Celiac often slowly build and you dont even realize you had symptoms til much later. There are tons of symptoms for Celiac.
These sites should help u figure out if u are and how to get diagnosed.

It sounds like you may be coeliac. Its a condition where gluten/wheat cannot be digested by the stomach, causing pains and fatigue for sometimes hours after. Unfortunately it is untreatable, however there are alternative products available. See your doctor, they can help you best.
Good luck.

I have been constipated for about two weeks and I have had really bad pains in my lower stomach and I took some Epsom Salt and it did help alot but now my lower stomach hurts even more.

I have GAD and my weight has been going up and down daily,also my appetite is off. When i eat my appetite is good,but i am not that hungry in general. I know anxiety can lots of symptoms are these also symptoms of anxiety?

Appetite and weight issues go along with emotional distress in general, as well as in cases of disorders of mood regulation (such as GAD) I know when I'm feeling my anxiety going my stomach is in knots! so I feel for ya.

Though if your weight is fluctuating drastically on a daily basis (like more than a pound or two) that might be something to talk with your doctor about.

Yes, Weight fluctuation could be due to a number of things but anxiety is a major cause of weight fluctuation. just try to stay relaxed in situations that cause anxiety.

this may be the symptoms of anxiety the related details of GAD are listed here.

I have completed 29 and two days week i got very pain in my stomach i went hospital doctor said it was labor pain and she gave me Injection from inside i got very itchy inside now i am at home. what are other symptoms of labor pain.

Labour Pain

Labour Pain Relief

This page will give you information about pain that you may experience during labour and childbirth and the various methods on offer to help reduce it.

For most women childbirth happens twice in their life. for many of you reading this it will be your first baby. we hope the information we present here will act as an introduction so that you are better prepared to obtain further help and advice from the health professionals looking after you. we hope that with a better understanding and appropriate therapy the birth of your baby will be a comfortable and rewarding experience.

WHAT CAUSES PAIN IN LABOUR ?

Labour begins when your uterus (womb) begins to contract. In the days before labour starts, you may experience tightening of the uterus which cause discomfort rather than pain.

Labour is said to start when you get regular contractions. Contractions increase in frequency and intensity throughout labour and can become painful in a similar way as you may experience pain in other muscles in your body when you do vigorous exercise.

At the same time the opening into the uterus (the cervix) is stretching to eventually allow your baby to pass through into your birth canal.

When the opening to the cervix is fully open (dilated) you begin what is known as the second stage of labour, when your baby is born. the baby passes through your birth canal and is born by a combination of the continuing contractions of your uterus and your conscious effort to push your baby out by using the muscles of your lower abdomen.

During your pregnancy changes happen in your body to prepare for these events. the ligaments of your pelvis loosen to permit your pelvis to relax and allow your baby to come out. Other changes occur to adapt your body to accommodate childbirth. unfortunately, despite these changes it is likely you will feel pain. First labours are probably more painful than subsequent ones.

Sometimes when it is necessary to start off labour, or stimulate it if progress is slow, your labour may be more painful.

Every person's appreciation of pain is different, and what one person can accept another may find extremely painful.

COPING IN LABOUR

You can do a lot to help. Preparing for childbirth during your pregnancy can improve these natural changes. At parentcraft classes you will be advised on exercises to make you fitter. Relaxation and breathing exercises to help you manage your labour pains. sometimes this is all that you may need. Care with your diet, and stopping smoking are other ways you can help yourself by improving your fitness and training your body for the task that lies ahead.
Gentle exercise, breathing, posture and relaxation techniques help in early labour. A warm bath may also help. Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) may be of help in early labour.

A midwife will spend most time with you in labour. In their training midwives receive instruction in the methods of pain relief available. they are licensed to administer some forms of pain relief and are able to advise and seek assistance to administer other methods. Midwives are involved in giving advice at ante-natal classes.

Physiotherapists may also be involved and give advice on TENS.

Obstetricians are doctors specialising in the medicine of childbirth. As part of this they may have knowledge and administer some forms of pain relief including some local anaesthetic techniques involved in childbirth.

Anaesthetists are specialist doctors having knowledge and experience in providing all types of pain relief and can apply more sophisticated forms of pain relief to you in labour, as well as giving anaesthetics should they be necessary.

TENS

TENS has been used for pain relief in labour and is said to be effective particularly in early labour.

Treatment with TENS consists of attaching pads to your back. A low voltage electric current is passed across these pads and this stimulates your body to produce it's own natural pain relieving substances. it takes about 30 minutes before an effect is felt. the pain relief achieved is usually assessed as moderate, and is sometimes inconsistent. there are no known ill effects from TENS. for some women it is of considerable value. As labour progresses the intensity of the electrical stimulation can be increased to cope with the increased pain of contractions, but frequently stronger pain relief may be required.

well you get very bad period like cramps going from your lower back to the side and to the front of your stomach.. they will be timed apart so you would have to keep track.. and they will get closer together. another thing is losing your mucus plug or of course your water breaking.

A good thing to do is look up Labor symptoms using a search engine.
Here are a few: Contractions that are regular and can be timed, nesting, loss of mucus plug, bloody show, water breaking. good Luck

What are the pregnancy symptoms just before your period is going to start?
if i am pregnant i would of conceived 4 days ago, i have sore boobs, and tiny little twingy cramps in my stomach, nothing painful though, ive also been very emotional could this just be my period coming or pregnancy symptoms? im due either the 30th or 31st for my period, did anyone have these symptoms or anyother ones so early on in your pregnancy, all your help would be so greatful thankyou

Don't listen to people who say you can't have symptoms this early. I had symptoms right after I conceived, within days at the most.

It's way to early for you to have any pregnancy symptoms yet..usually women don't get symptoms until at least 5-6 weeks earliest.. does not mean your not pregnant though just wait to see if your period arrives..

Pancreatic Cancer Late Signs – Colon Cancer Symptoms and Signs in Women

Cancer that affects the gastrointestinal tract can hit anywhere in the digestive tract, starting with the esophagus and then going to the gallbladder, liver, pancreas, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and lastly, the rectum.

Colon Cancer Symptoms and Signs in Women

While we primarily think of asbestos as a carcinogen that attacks the lungs with cancers such as mesothelioma, it can actually cause gastrointestinal cancer as well. this is because asbestos can be ingested as well as inhaled. this happens when a person gets asbestos fibers in his or her mouth through exposure to things such as asbestos dust. The fibers can become caught in the saliva, which are then swallowed and passed into the digestive tract.

The problem with asbestos fibers, whether ingested or inhaled, is that our bodies cannot break them down. When they lodge into our systems, they are stuck there. Our bodies are forced to create nodules of extra tissue around the fibers, which can cause scarring that can turn into cancerous tumors. Additionally, these fibers are microscopic in scope, which means that you may not know that you are ingesting them.

Sadly, the widespread use of asbestos during the 20th century meant that many people were exposed to the material before it was mostly banned in the late 1980s. while asbestos is not very susceptible to biodegradation, age and friction can both lead to the wearing down of the object containing the carcinogen, which leads to the release of fibers. For example, asbestos is often a part of brake pads. however, as we use our brakes, the friction from stopping the car leads to the breakdown of asbestos. When the pads are changed, it can release clouds of asbestos into the air.

Asbestos from the air can be ingested, resulting in gastrointestinal cancers. this is a broad spectrum of cancer that gains about 250,000 new cases per year in the United States alone. some common types of gastrointestinal cancers include: Colorectal – the third most common cancer overall in both men and women Pancreatic Stomach – also known as gastric Anal Extrahepatic bile duct Esophageal Gallbladder Liver Small intestine

When doctors operate to remove gastrointestinal cancerous tumors, it can remove parts of your body that are necessary to keep you alive. You may have to live on special intravenous liquid nutrition or have special reconstruction surgery to keep you functioning as normally as possible.
