Raw
Pancreas Natural Source Raw
Pancreas is a glandular extract to support the
pancreas, the digestive gland that has two
main functions within the body it produces
enzymes that are released into the bowel to
digest protein, fat, and sugar for growth and
energy; and produces insulin to help regulate
blood glucose sugar levels
Pancreatitis
- Essential oils - Lemon,
Marjoram, Oregano,
Peppermint,
Cypress,
.
Pancreatitis can occur
as a result of gallstones, excess alcohol, a
sluggish immune system, or an infection -
viruses like hepatitis and rubella can trigger
the condition. A gallstone can block the
pancreatic duct, trapping digestive enzymes in
the pancreas where they can become active.
Common symptoms to watch out for include:
Severe pain and swelling in the upper part of
your abdomen
Excessive sweating, nausea or vomiting
Fever, mild jaundice and rapid pulse
Diarrhoea, containing undigested fats (called
steatorrhoea). In chronic pancreatitis this may
result in malnutrition and weight loss.
Nutrients that are able to reduce inflammation
have been found to be effective for alleviating
both acute and chronic cases of pancreatitis. Evening
primrose oil is a well-known
anti-inflammatory that has been found to be
beneficial. It also acts as a preventative,
helping to ward off attacks. The recommended
dosage for evening primrose oil is 3,000mg a
day. Aloe vera
has a double benefit when it comes to treating
the condition it not only helps to reduce
inflammation within the pancreas but also
rebalances digestive juices in the bowel. The
recommended dosage is half a cup of aloe vera
juice twice a day.
Repeat attacks of pancreatitis can cause a vitamin B12
deficiency, which increases the risk of anaemia
(Glasbrenner B et al. Klin Wochenschr 1001.
69(4):168-172). For this reason, it is wise to
take vitamin
B12 in supplement form as a precaution,
particularly for those suffering from chronic
pancreatitis. The recommended dosage is 100mcg a
day.
Chronic pancreatitis causes indigestion and
insufficient absorption of nutrients from your
bowel. Fortunately natural enzymes like
bromelain and papain (pineapple extracts) can
help. They are able to digest protein inside
your bowel and also have the added bonus of
reducing inflammation both inside the pancreas
and the bowel. The recommended dosage is 1,000mg
taken three times a day.
People with panic disorder are typically faced
with a range of difficult emotions, such as
worry, anxiety, sadness, and embarrassment.
Panic attacks, the main symptom of panic
disorder, often occur with strong emotions,
including fear, uneasiness, nervousness, and
apprehension.
A distraction technique is simply any activity
that you engage in to redirect your mind off
your current emotions. Instead of putting all
your energy into the upsetting emotion, you
reset your attention on something else. When
you distract yourself, you are able to manage
your string emotions by bringing your focus
elsewhere. The next time you experience a panic
attack or intense anxiety, try to keep
emotions in check by temporarily distracting
yourself. The following is a list of some
distraction techniques you may want to try
when faced with overwhelming emotions:
Entertainment, book, TV, magazine
Count your breaths inhale essential oil
of choice
When string emotions take hold, try
participating in some form of exercise. You
may want to take walk outdoors, hit the gym,
or stretch through a few yoga poses. If
crunched for time, you can always try doing
some jumping jacks or other easy and quick
exercises.
Relaxation techniques such as visualization,
progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), or
mindfulness meditation can help you re-center
and find a sense of calm. These activities can
help divert your mind and let you refocus on
more pleasant thoughts. Plus, it is difficult
to feel anxious and upset when in a relaxed
state of mind.
Get your creative juices flowing.
