Happy Thanksgiving From Energy Science Nutrition

Bigstock_Cornucopia_30612

A day of gratitude and celebration with family and friends

To remind us of all that we can be grateful for

For when we become grateful we lose sight of all our problems, failures, and incompletes

Then we can get in touch with what is really important in our lives

And forget our tiny selves

And remember our greatness

That's what gratitude does   Beyond the food nutrition

We nourish ourselves and all those around us 

Now that's real nutrition

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Thanksgiving: Dark or White Meat?

Celebration!!!  Family, friends, Aunt Myrtle, football, and everything else

What a fun time around food; the holidays and turkey  YES!

The energy science nutritional advice is ENJOY

To completely enjoy the holiday seasonal festivities, the energy science suggests that for PK the dark meat of the turkey is not so good and that white meat is best The energy science reason behind this is that the dark meat of any animal is loaded with fatty acids which bring the sour taste

The sour taste is the acid taste in Nature and the sour taste is provoking to Pitta and Kapha  So the fatty acids provoke people who happen to have Pitta Kapha energy pattern makeups

For Pitta Vata,  both white and dark meat should be used in moderation; that is, dark meat 1-2x per week and the same for white meat Vata as an energy pattern is balanced by the sour taste but Pitta energy pattern is still provoked so moderation is the guideline

 

To enjoy thanksgiving even more, there are some helpful suggestions

                Avoid ice with the water

                PK should use white meat only; PV can use dark and white meat in moderation, so mix it up

                Use a churan when eating

                Avoid poor food combining, such as fruit with other foods

                Avoid dairy with potatoes when mashing; use soy milk

                And HaVE FuN  Life is here to enjoy

Nutritional Humor

Sometimes there can be a glitch in the reasoning process

Watch this for some yucks

In order to keep our metabolism from slowing down we need 1200 calories per day, that is our digestiive fire needs to be fed in order to keep it burning just like a campfire

But movement is required as our "athletes" found out in the pool

Can you relate to overeating your digestive fire as they experienced?

Channels of Energy Flow: An Anatomy Lesson

Bigstock_Data_Tunnel_6607928

There are numerous examples of channels of energy flow in the body, the gastrointestinal(GI) system, blood vessels, the urinary tract, the reproductive system, the nervous system

Think about it, without bias and with fresh eyes

The GI system is merely a long tube that runs from the mouth to the other end; blood vessels are long channels of a tubular network, both on the venous and arterial sides, the heart being an expanded tube

The urinary system, although seemingly complex at the kidney level, is actually a series of tubes called nephrons that link with another tube, the collecting system which expands into a storage area we call the bladder, that then makes its way out to the body surface through a tube we call the urethra

In all of these examples the channels serve as conduits for, yes, blood, urine, and food that eventually is eliminated as stool  But can we simply reframe blood, urine and food that is from another view, energy?

Food is energy, correct? The same can be said for blood and urine, correct?

So these channels are energy channels as well  With me so far?

So what happens if I excessively consume the hot quality in the form of hot chiles, cayenne, horseradish, and tomatoes?  Eventually the hot quality shows up in the GI channel experienced as acid indigestion(heartburn) and diarrhea

This hot quality is now seen in other channels such as the blood channel and urinary channels  Then I begin sensing the hot quality in the blood channel as fever or feeling hot  In the urinary channel I sense burning on urination, frequency and urgency of urination, and a doctor may diagnose that I have a urinary tract infection

But I don't have a UTI, I'm just expressing the hot quality in my urinary tract!

The energy science medical model gives doctors another dimension in understanding dis-ease and can be quite enlightening
