It affects 1 out of 3 middle-age people in Western nations and approximately 63% to 85% of people over the age of 65. For those over 40, the leading culprit is stress and injuries or so they say! And it is the second leading cause of work disability. What am I talking about? Arthritis!
With those kinds of numbers you or several people you know are being affected by arthritis.
What do you do? What can you do? On today's show we're going to get answers to an age old problem. We're going to get to the root of arthritis and find out how we can put out the fire on those burning joints. Take a look!
Most people think arthritis is caused by age; however, diet can play a major role. Salt, sugar, processed and cooked to death foods. Night Shade vegetables when cooked can cause anything from gout to arthritis. Things like collard, turnip, greens and all those other southern foods even tomatoes, eggplant, and green peppers.
Certain medicines can cause arthritic type pain. Toxicity absolutely can make you feel like you are riddled with pain and of course certain diseases like liver disease, chronic fatigue, Epstein Barr as well as more debilitating disorders.
Now, while all these are absolute root causes of pain and disorder in the body; there is one major player in the game of arthritis! And this same player has a whole lot to do with being over 40! When we hit 40 we simply don't have the same ability to digest our food as well as not having enough digestive enzymes! Could that be you?
Here are some symptoms of specific enzyme deficiencies:
Amylase Deficiency
Breaking out of the skin -- rash
Hypoglycemia
Depression
Mood swings
Allergies
PMS
Hot flashes
Fatigue
Copld hands and feet
Neck and shoulder aches
Inflammation
If you answered yes to 3 or more of these symptoms, you most likely have Amylase deficiency.
Protease Deficiency
Back weakness Hearing problems
Fungal forms Parasites
Constipation Gum disorders
High blood pressure Gingivitis
Insomnia
If you answered yes to 3 or more of these symptoms, you most likely have a Protease deficiency.
Lipase Deficiency
Aching feet Hay fever
Arthritis Prostate problems
Bladder problems Psoriasis
Cystitis Urinary weakness
Acne Constipation
Gall bladder stress Diarrhea
Gallstones Heart problems
If you answered yes to 3 or more of these symptoms, you most likely have a Lipase deficiency.
And if you deal with:
Chronic allergies
Common colds
Diverticulitis
Irritable bowel
Chronic fatigue
Sinus infection
Immune depressed conditions
You most likely have a combination deficiency!
So what all do enzymes do that could possibly cause me to have all of these symptoms? I believe the answer to most arthritic pain, die-ease, likely revolves around ENZYME DEFICIENCY.
An enzyme deficiency can manifest itself in a variety of conditions. Everything from bloating to mood swings to arthritis! So let's talk about what do enzymes do.
Protease digests protein. Acidity is created through the digestion of protein. Therefore, a protease deficiency results in an alkaline excess in the blood. This alkaline environment can cause anxiety and insomnia. In addition, since protein is required to carry protein-bound calcium in the blood, a Protease deficiency lays the foundation for arthritis, Osteoporosis and other calcium deficient diseases.
Because protein is converted to glucose upon demand, inadequate protein digestion leads to hypoglycemia, resulting in moodiness, mood swings and irritability.
Protease also has an ability to digest unwanted debris in the blood including certain bacteria and viruses. Therefore, Protease deficient people are immune compromised, making them susceptible to bacterial, viral and yeast infections and a general decrease in immunity.
Amylase digests carbohydrates along with dead white blood cells (pus). When you are low in Amylase you are a candidate for abscesses (inflamed areas with pus but not bacteria). Amylase is also involved in anti-inflammatory reactions such as those caused by the release of histamine and similar responses.
An Amylase deficiency can result in skin problems such as psoriasis, eczema, hives, allergic reactions to bee and bug stings, atopic dermatitis and all types of herpes. Asthma and emphysema may also be exacerbated by an amylase deficiency.
Since Lipase digests fat and fat-soluble vitamins, and balances fatty acids, Lipase deficient people can be expected to have a tendency towards high cholesterol, high triglycerides, difficulty losing weight and diabetes.
The future outcome of these tendencies is heart disease, which kills one out of two Americans. Lipase deficient people also have decreased cell permeability, meaning nutrients cannot get in and the waste cannot get out. The condition of vertigo or labyrinths, also called Meniere's Disease (dizziness aggravated by movement such as walking or driving), can also result from Lipase deficiency.
Cellulase breaks down the fiber in our diet. Because our body does not produce Cellulase, this food enzyme is essential. We must eat it on a daily basis. Remember, ONLY RAW FOODS contain Cellulase. Of all the enzymes, this deficiency carries with it the mot categories of problems.
The symptoms of Cellulase deficiency can best be described as malabsorption syndrome (impaired absorption of nutrients, vitamins, or minerals from the diet by the living of the small intestine). Malabsorption has many symptoms including lower abdominal gas, pain, bloating and problems associated with the jejunum and pancreas.
The consumption of fiber enriched nutritional drinks, which are full of cellulose, can exacerbate these problems.
Sucrase intolerant people cannot split the sucrose disaccharide into twin partners, two units of glucose. Glucose is a primary brain food so expect mental and emotional problems in people who cannot get glucose into the brain. Symptoms include depression, moodiness, panic attacks, manic and schizophrenic behavior and severe mood swings.
Lactase intolerant people also have classic symptoms which include abdominal cramps and diarrhea. Other allergic symptoms, including asthma, have been witnesses from the ingestion of lactose-containing products.
Maltase intolerant people are generally sensitive to environmental conditions.
HEY! We need enzymes...
OK, you have arthritis! Theres's hope! The best way to turn the tide is to do a cleanse!
Nothing like a 3 day fast to get you off to a good start.
I would highly suggest a 30 day herbal cleanse to get the bad out and put the good in.
A diet high in fiber and fruits and veggies as well as sprouts is excellent. Avoid red meats and ABSOLUTELY NO PORK.
No mucous forming products like milk, cheese, ice cream, etc...
No table salt!
And do as the Europeans! Eat your salad last. That will give you that living food which equals living enzymes to help break down the cooked foods. And by all means start your enzyme therapy immediately!
My product, Digestive Dynamics, will help you get the enzymes you need. If you have more questions, visit us on the web at www.valeriesaxionministries.com or call 800-493-1146.
PLEASE REMEMBER, "I'M HERE BECAUSE YOU'RE THERE."
