 The Health Benefits of Walking

     Walking is a great exercise that almost everyone could do, regardless of age and background, or whether you are very fit and accustomed to exercise or just starting a brand new exercise regimen. You do not need to buy fancy gear, spend a lot of money on supplies, and  time waiting for equipment to arrive and putting it together.

 

It allows you to go at your own pace, and reap the benefits right away. Walking outside is good for a change of scenery and getting some fresh air. If you have a family member to walk with, it allows for good conversation, bonding time, and a healthy regimen. Some people also walk with their animals, and walking a dog several times a day helps to give that stable routine.

 

Because it is so basic in our every day movements, walking is often overlooked, and takes a backseat to other training activities. But in actuality, walking allows you to stay healthy, active and to keep your bodies moving with ease. Walking burns calories, promotes a healthy lung system and also a healthy heart system. Walking also benefits cardiovascular health because it gets  blood flowing, increases oxygen, and helps the body get rid of toxins.

 

Because it is low impact, walking is the most basic form of cardio workouts. It causes very little stress to your body systems. It is easy on your joints and you pretty much do not have to worry about straining or hurting yourself. It is great for beginners and can get you on the right track to a healthier lifestyle. Walking is wonderful for weight loss and helps keep movement at a steady pace to help you stay trim and active.

 

When it comes to exercise, walking is the best way to get started. You could begin right now! It is embedded into us and one of the most basic activities we do as human beings. Regardless of age, medical condition, injury or accident that does not allow for high impact exercise, a good walk allows you to do the most basic exercise right away by placing one foot in front of the other.

  Ulcerative Colitis 

What is Ulcerative Colitis?

 

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation and ulceration to the inner lining of the colon (large intestine) and rectum. It is a chronic disease, also known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that has similar symptoms to Crohn’s disease but only occurs in the colon. Due to abnormal responses by the body’s immune system, it produces irritation to the inner lining of the colon, causing prolonged, lasting inflammation that ultimately leads to ulceration. Ulcerative colitis does not occur suddenly in an individual; the symptoms are developed over time and causes individuals to have flare-ups intermittently. A continuous inflammation of the lining of the colon may increase the chances of developing colon cancer.

Ulcerative Colitis Symptoms

 The cause of ulcerative colitis is unknown. Typically, the body’s immune system would fight off any infection the body encounters. However, UC patients' white blood cells (WBC) that naturally defend the body from any foreign pathogens mistakenly think food, good intestinal bacteria, and the cells lining of the colon are invaders. They send a response to phagocytes to engulf and destroy bacteria and other foreign materials resulting in chronic inflammation and ulcerations inside the surface of the colon. Symptoms of UC include bloody diarrhea, rectal bleeding, an urgency to defecate and inability to defecate, abdominal and rectal pain, fever, fatigue, anemia, loss of appetite, and weight loss.

  Acupuncture to Benefit Ulcerative Colitis

 Acupuncture and herbal medicine induce homeostatic response on the cellular level by influencing the body’s internal organs to correct imbalances in their digestion, absorption, and energy production activities. They stimulate the central nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals will change the experience of pain, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body’s own internal regulating system. Acupuncture helps ulcerative colitis by reversing tissue damage and reduces inflammation and improves their quality of life. Acupuncture is safe and painless. There are no drugs or hazardous equipment used, and no surgical operation performed.

    Ulcerative Colitis Risk Factors

  • Individuals with an overactive intestinal immune system

  • Inherit gene with ulcerative colitis

  • Ulcerative colitis generally occurs in both sex between the ages of 15-30 and 60+

  • Higher risk for Caucasian than any other race

  Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis

 

There is no cure for ulcerative colitis. Ulcerative colitis is treated with multiple drugs or surgery. Doctors would prescribe UC patients with an anti-inflammatory drug to reduce the inflammation, immune system suppressor to suppresses the WBC response to prevent inflammation, and other drugs such as antibiotics, anti-diarrheal medication, pain reliever, and iron supplements to aid in the symptoms UC has caused in the colon. However, not all drugs will work for every individual, and depending on the severity, surgery is required. There are multiple ways surgery can be performed for patients with UC. Surgery can consist of removing part or the entire colon (large intestine and rectum) and reconstruction the small intestine forming a J-pouch to collect stools that are attached to the anus or create an opening in the abdominal for stool to be released.

Case Studies

 According to the Healthcare Medicine Institute, a study has shown that acupuncture helps to eliminate ulcerative colitis. An experiment was conducted on ulcerative colitis patients that were randomly divided into two groups. Results show that group A patients who did a combination of acupuncture combined with herbal medicine and drugs had a total effective rate of 93.1% with 56 days of required care compared to group B patients who only received drugs had an overall effective rate of 75.86% with 81 days of care needed. Patients who received acupuncture and herbal medicine have proven that acupuncture has tremendously helped them from ulcerative colitis. Take it from a patient from Chino, California, “I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis at age 25 and went through a year and a half of ups and downs. My 36 prescribed pills a day were not healing my body, they were simply suppressing the symptoms and creating other health problems along the way. After 9 months of treatment with Dr. Kevin I am 100% drug free today. The doctors told me that I’d be on the prescriptions for the rest of my life and would possibly need a colostomy. With God’s grace and Dr. Kevin’s wisdom I am healed and living a perfectly normal lifestyle.”

BALANCED FOOD MEDICINE FOR NATURAL HEALTH

Learn more about how to use and benefit from balanced individual foods

BALANCED NUTRITION

WE ARE 4TH GENERATION IN NATURAL MEDICINE

Food is a Major Determinant of Health

 Food is a major determinant of health that is directly under our control. We cannot always control pollution, hereditary factors, noise, environment, and the social and emotional behaviors of others, but we can certainly choose what and what not to eat. Food is essential to human existence and because it is utilized many times each day, it has a major affect on the body.

When used properly, food can strengthen the body, maintain good health, and prevent certain diseases. When used improperly, food can harm the body, hinder normal bodily functions, weaken the immune system, and leave the body vulnerable to attack from diseases. Food plays an important role in health, healing and natural wellness. It also has other values, such as chemical, physical, biological, cultural, religious, social, economic and personal. When all aspects of food are taken into consideration, it is known as food medicine.

 

However, most people do not realize the power of foods. The body is often being abused with wrong and junk foods, instead of healing and strengthening the body with good and proper foods. Therefore, the administration of foods to heal the body requires the mastery of natural medicine and food medicine coupled with the knowledge of physics, biology and chemistry of each individual food.  We hope that you will observe the principles of food medicine and incorporate this natural and powerful component into daily living, because anything we do three times a day will have an effect on the body!  As the famous Hippocrates said, “Let food be our medicine, and medicine our food.”

Food Medicine, the Chemical, Physical and Biological Values of Food

The Chemical Values of Food 

The chemical values of food represent the “science of nutrition”, and these vital nutrients are water, protein, carbohydrates, fats, minerals, vitamins, phytochemicals, phytohormones, enzymes, co-enzymes, fiber and trace elements. It is certainly important to observe chemical intake of nutrients and make sure it is properly balanced within the body to maintain normal chemical homeostasis, or balance. The “science of nutrition” is mainly concerned with the chemical aspects of food and the ingestion, digestion, absorption and assimilation of key nutrients. These chemical ingredients are essential to the body’s growth, reproduction, maintenance of normal function, and repair of all cells. Unquestionably, the body’s chemical constitution needs nutrition for survival.

 

These chemical values are keys to drive all functions within the body. Nutrition is very important to meet the daily chemical needs of the body for survival, however, nutrition is merely a subcategory of food. Please remember that food is not nutrition and nutrition is not food. Therefore, when one looks at the “nutritional facts” label on the foods being bought, this does not represent the entire classification of food, but only the chemical ingredients needed (or not needed) by the body.

FRESH PRODUCE FOR NATURAL HEALTH

WE HAVE TREATED OVER 45,000 PATIENTS

The Physical Values of Food

The physical values of food are taste, color, smell, internal temperature, motion, energy, impulse, momentum, elasticity, fluid mechanics, waves, vibrating bodies, thermodynamics, acoustic phenomena, electrostatics, electric currents, electrodynamics, optics, high energy physics, and relationship with internal organs and organ systems. When physical values are carefully studied, it is clear that there are many important aspects of food that have been completely disregarded, such as taste, color of food, aroma, effects to the different internal organ systems, the internal temperature and the seasonal meaning of individual foods.

BALANCED MEAL

WE SHOW LOVE TO OUR PATIENTS AND LOVE OUR PATIENT FAMILY

The Biological Values of Food 

The biological values of food are sex, age, life span, nature, development, shape, size, how it grew, when it grew, category (kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species), fresh or preserved, and environmental characteristics (sunny, shady, mountain, desert, lake, sea, ocean, dry, or wet that attributed to the growth and development or withering and death). Biology is very important when describing the individual foods, because it represents the nature of the growth and development of the food being consumed.

 

After an individualized evaluation consisting of an intra- and extracellular diagnosis, biothermomic diagnosis, biological diagnosis, organ deficiency and sufficiency diagnosis, the foods and nutritional supplements are then personalized for the body’s current needs. These foods are prescribed based on their biological, physical and chemical nature to delicately maintain homeostasis. And as the body changes, it is important to monitor these patterns and adjust the foods according to the body’s changing needs, otherwise, the body will lack proper maintenance and care.

The inspiration for BALANCED FOOD MEDICINE came from our patients, who, after reading SEASONAL FOOD MEDICINE and attending our weekly seminars, wanted to learn more about balanced individual foods and how to use them to benefit and heal the body.

At times, the questions were asked simply out of curiosity and interest in living a more balanced and healthy life.

PROPER EXERCISE AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

At Agape Natural Health, we recommend proper aerobic exercise, mix of physical activity, and walking for good health and to benefit the lung and large intestine systems.

Physical activity is generally safe for everyone and we encourage proper exercise and body movement for good health.

WE HAVE TREATED OVER 45,000 PATIENTS

Exercise

Physical activity is generally safe for everyone and we encourage proper exercise and movement for good health. Exercise is essential for the body and beneficial for the cardiovascular system, and during the autumn season, we recommend proper aerobic exercise, mix of physical activity, and walking for good health and to benefit the lung and large intestine systems. Exercise and physical movement should be utilized regularly, especially in a country where a sedentary lifestyle and obesity is on the rise. Sedentary behavior “Couch potato” numbers are rising and after a ten-year study, the Centers for Disease Control reported that only 8% of adults ages 18-65 do any regular exercise, i.e., 20 minutes or more of vigorous exercise three times or more per week. Exercise falls under two main categories, aerobic and anaerobic, but for health reasons, the exercise of choice would be mainly aerobic.

 

To help patients get well without adverse side effects and to assist in their recovery from chronic debilitating ailments is truly a blessing. As primary health care providers, we at Agape Natural Health believe that those who work in the medical profession have to take on an active part in the patients’ total health and wellness. Therefore, the healing of diseases requires the complete approach of proper treatment, food guidelines, exercise guidelines, lifestyle choices, medicinal supplements, and dietary supplements. If you choose to begin a new exercise regimen, please consult your physician and healthcare professional first before starting. If you have a specific physical need or are debilitated in any way, if you are pregnant, nursing, or have individual health concerns, please discuss exercise and physical activity with your healthcare professional before beginning. Each patient is different, and our functions and requirements are different and unique, so we need to first always consider safety and to reduce risks.

"At first my family and friends couldn’t believe it and then a big sigh of relief that something was finally working. I praise God for the healing that has gone on in my body and can’t thank Dr. Huang and natural medicine enough for how they have changed my life."

Physical Activity

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services encourages that all Americans should engage in regular physical activity to improve overall health and fitness and to prevent negative health outcomes. The benefits of physical activity occur in generally healthy people of all ages, in people at risk of developing chronic diseases, and in people with chronic conditions or disabilities. Physical activity affects many health conditions, and the specific amounts and types of activity that benefit each condition vary. In developing public health guidelines, the challenge is to integrate scientific information across all health benefits and identify a critical range of physical activity that appears to have an effect across the health benefits. One consistent finding from research studies is that once the health benefits from physical activity begin to accumulate, additional amounts of activity provide additional benefits.

 

Some health benefits occur immediately after an episode of physical activity. Other benefits begin with as little as 60 minutes a week. Research shows that a total amount of at least 150 minutes a week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, such as brisk walking, consistently reduces the risk of many chronic diseases and other adverse health outcomes. It defines physical activity as it refers to any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscle that increases energy expenditure above a basal level. In the Guidelines, physical activity generally refers to the subset of physical activity that enhances health. Exercise is a form of physical activity that is planned, structured, repetitive, and performed with the goal of improving health or fitness. Although all exercise is physical activity, not all physical activity is exercise.

Anaerobic Exercise

 Anaerobic exercise involves short bursts of exertion followed by periods of rest. Bodies develop stronger muscles as the result of anaerobic exercise. Anaerobic exercise does not burn fat, because it is generally performed at an intensity that is too great to allow enough oxygen into the body to burn fat for energy.  However, its muscle-building results can complement aerobic exercise and we highly recommend a mix of physical activity to stay healthy. Examples of anaerobic activities include push-ups, stomach crunches, pull-ups, weight lifting, calisthenics, golf, sprinting, etc.

 

During anaerobic exercise, creatine phosphate, which exists in the muscles is a compound essential for generating energy. High creatine levels enhance recovery during repeated bursts of exercise. For this reason, people who do anaerobic exercise gain on the average of one to four pounds. The weight may be extra water held in the muscles, an increase in muscle mass, or both. "Weight gain varies from person to person," reports BJ Baker, strength trainer for the Boston Red Sox. Athletes with low creatine levels (vegetarians or low meat eaters) often show the biggest response

Aerobic Exercise

Aerobic exercise means exercise "with air", and emphasizes oxygen in the air. Muscles need oxygen to function. Aerobic encompasses any activity that continually supplies enough oxygen to the exercising muscles for the duration of the activity. The kind of exercise that reduces fat is called aerobic exercise. During aerobic exercise, the heart beats faster and breathing is heavier. The increased oxygen level combines with stored fat and literally burns the fat away. Regular aerobic exercise (20 minutes of exercise three or more times a week) also raises the body's metabolism; the body burns more calories all the time - even at rest! Examples of aerobic activities include breathing exercise, walking (fast), running/jogging, basketball, bicycling, hockey, ice skating, karate, rollerblading, rowing, soccer, swimming, tennis, cross-country skiing, dancing, jumping, and skating.

aerobic exercise promotes good health

WE HAVE THE MEDICAL EXPERIENCE TO HELP YOU

 Aerobic exercise can benefit the body in many different ways, such as: 

  1. Improve Quality of Life - A properly designed exercise program will give the body more energy. Aerobic exercisers add life to their years, as well as years to their lives. 

  2. Helps Reduce Risks of Heart Disease - People who do not exercise aerobically have twice the risk of developing heart disease than individuals who do aerobic exercise on a regular basis. 

  3. Helps to Relieve Depression - Mild to moderately depressed individuals who engage in aerobic exercise 15 to 30 minutes a day, at least every other day, typically experience a more positive mood in two to three weeks. 

  4. Slow Down the Aging Process - By counterbalancing the age-related decrease in work capacity and physical performance, aerobic exercise can help you maintain and sustain the ability to perform work and to be independent. 

  5. Prevent Certain Types of Cancer - People who exercise are less likely to get colon cancer. Also, women who do not exercise have more than two and one-half times the risk of developing cancer of the reproductive system and almost twice the chance of getting breast cancer. 

  6. Increase Good (HDL) Cholesterol - Exercise is one of the few voluntary activities that are effective in raising HDL levels - the type of cholesterol that lowers the risk of heart disease. 

  7. Enhance Self-Image - Individuals who exercise regularly generally feel better about themselves than sedentary individuals.

  8. Improve Quality of Sleep – People who exercise go to sleep more quickly, sleep more soundly and are more refreshed than individuals who do not exercise. 

  9. Relieve Stress and Anxiety - Exercise dissipates certain hormones and other chemicals that build up during periods of high stress. Exercise also generates a period of substantial emotional and physical relaxation that sets in approximately an hour and a half after an intense workout. 

  10. Improve Mental Sharpness - Individuals who exercise regularly have better memories, better reaction times and a better level of concentration than non-exercisers. 

It is important to give correct exercise guidelines to patients, depending upon gender, age, physical capacity, and physical needs. These factors must be taken into consideration so that each patient can get personalized exercise routines based on individual requirements. Exercise is certainly a major determinant of health and when used properly, it benefits circulation, speeds up metabolism, enhances oxygen supply to internal tissue and organs, and strengthens immunity.

Key Guidelines For Safe Physical Activity

From the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

Regular physical activity is one of the most important things people can do to improve their health. Moving more and sitting less have tremendous benefits for everyone, regardless of age, sex, race, ethnicity, or current fitness level. Individuals with a chronic disease or a disability benefit from regular physical activity, as do women who are pregnant. The scientific evidence continues to build—physical activity is linked with even more positive health outcomes than we previously thought. And, even better, benefits can start accumulating with small amounts of, and immediately after doing, physical activity.

To do physical activity safely and reduce risk of injuries and other adverse events, people should:

  • Understand the risks, yet be confident that physical activity can be safe for almost everyone.

  • Choose types of physical activity that are appropriate for their current fitness level and health

    goals, because some activities are safer than others.

  • Increase physical activity gradually over time to meet key guidelines or health goals. Inactive people should “start low and go slow” by starting with lower intensity activities and gradually increasing how often and how long activities are done.

  • Protect themselves by using appropriate gear and sports equipment, choosing safe environments, following rules and policies, and making sensible choices about when, where, and how to be active.

  • Be under the care of a health care provider if they have chronic conditions or symptoms. People with chronic conditions and symptoms can consult a health care professional or physical activity specialist about the types and amounts of activity appropriate for them

“I was Stage 4 head, neck, throat cancer that spread to my lungs, my survival was low and I am now free of cancer according to my last PET scan. The fact that they can’t see it on a scan is pretty amazing to me!”

I was diagnosed on August 5, 2013 with Stage 4 Head, Neck and Throat Cancer. I was scared and worried. My condition basically kept me locked down at home on my couch and it was lonely. It kept me fatigued all the time with a dry mouth and limited me from doing cardio. It limited me from going out in the sun and kept me from the beach and riding my bike. I suffered with this condition for 1 year.

 

I had radiation to the throat area, chemotherapy for 5 weeks - 1 every week during 24 radiation treatments to the throat. The second round was 1 every 3 weeks for 6 months. I had a throat tube put in because I couldn’t breath when I went into the ER, and I was there for a month. The tracheostomy tube did not come out for 4 months because the tumor was wrapped around my esophagus. When they took the tube out and did another scan, they found that the cancer had spread to my lungs. They did a needle biopsy and found out that it was the same from my throat and that it had spread. It was a cancerous lung nodule 8mm that spread from my throat.

 

I had 6 rounds of chemotherapy for the lungs. I was also on medications for pain (morphine and hydrocodone) and Xanax for anxiety. I didn’t like any of it because the whole process of treatments made me miserable, and I had a lot of anxiety with the chemotherapy treatments.


I was always a believer in natural remedies and I read a lot about it first. I came to Agape Acupuncture on February 6, 2014 and found Dr. Huang to be knowledgeable and that they were really concerned about me and very supportive. I found the clinic to be fantastic with excellent customer service and a clean facility - sweet people over here, honest and reliable. I hoped to find healing of my cancer all the way naturally instead of with drugs. I started acupuncture treatments along with natural herbs and diet guidance.

 

After I started coming to Agape Acupuncture, I have been getting better everyday and it is promoting to heal the body naturally. Socially I can get out a little more and exercise more. I don’t have to hide my appearance from the sun because the chemotherapy beats you up and it shows on your face. I have more energy and over all feel better. Ever since I’ve even coming here, the last 2 scans, CT scan and PET scan were the best I had and were clear and free of cancer. The staff is very helpful, kind, understanding and educated. I found the medical staff to be very respectful, very kind and knowledgeable. I feel fantastic about the results and clear and no cancer on my last scans. My family and loved ones are ecstatic at my results.

I will definitely refer others to Dr. Kevin Huang because I find natural medicine to be fantastic. I would say they helped me and brought me through a lot of turmoil. I would make a point to tell others I was Stage 4 head, neck, throat cancer that spread to my lungs, my survival was low and I am now free of cancer according to my last PET scan. The fact that they can’t see it on a scan is pretty amazing to me! I would recommend natural medicine to anybody, whether they have cancer or not. It restores your body naturally from toxins and Dr. Huang has excellent credentials.

Sincerely,
L.K.

Major Determinants of Health

Natural health and wellness are determined by many factors such as food, nutrition, environment, emotions, exercise, sleep, lifestyle, healthcare, and medical treatment. It is not enough to only give attention to one aspect and ignore the rest. All of these important components must work together simultaneously and be synchronized to completely benefit the body. 

 

It is the responsibility of doctors, nurses, medical technicians, nutritionists, pharmacists and all those who work in the medical field to provide patients with correct information regarding the major determinants of health. It is not right to only render treatments and give medications to the sick, without providing for the total wellness of the patient and incorporate preventative measures to reduce the risks of the patient becoming sick.

 

It is more important to “teach a person how to fish than to just give them a fish to eat when they are hungry”. When someone is hungry and they are given a fish to eat, they have to rely on the giver for survival. However, if that same person is taught how to fish, they will never be hungry again. That person can rely on himself or herself for survival. The same is true for healthcare. Knowing the key steps in maintaining wellness, the patient can take charge of his or her own body. 

 

It is true that the patient can be the best doctor because it is nearly impossible for a healthcare professional to spend every meal, every day and every night with the patient. But when the patient is educated on health and preventative measures, every day can be a healing experience with the proper food, sleep, exercise, work, study and lifestyle.

Food is a Major Determinant of Health

Food is certainly an essential aspect of health and wellness. It is a medical treasure that humans have used for thousands of years for survival. It can be an art of healing that everybody uses at least three times a day, 21 times a week, and 1095 times a year. However, most people do not realize the power of foods. The body is often being abused with wrong and junk foods, instead of healing and strengthening the body with good and proper foods. The only way to fully understand whether a food is good or bad for the body is through proper education.

 

If wrong foods are not controlled, diseases cannot be treated effectively. For example, a diabetic patient came to our clinic with a blood sugar level of 285. She had congestive heart failure, high blood pressure, and severe edema in her ankles, knees, hips, belly button and lower ribs. She was also overweight. She was on 40 units of insulin each day and medication for her heart and the high blood pressure. She came to us saying, “I am dying, I am dying”. Upon completion of her diagnostic examination and reviewing her personal and medical history, we found out that she was drinking three glasses of orange juice and lots of sodas every day, using butter, and heavily eating meats for protein. We immediately told her to eliminate these foods from her diet. Her response was, “I’ll follow, but no one had ever told me not to eat these foods”.

 

Doctors need to help patients with food and diet, so that the patients do not suffer the consequences. As long as the patient understands what to eat and what not to eat, this knowledge can be applied many times each day to help strengthen the body, boost the immune system, allow normal functioning of internal organs, and provide proper balance within the body. Our desire is to equip patients to know how to care for their bodies from the inside out.

WHAT IS CROHN’S DISEASE?

 Crohn’s disease is a chronic and irremediable disease that is associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It is an autoimmune disease that causes enduring inflammation and irritation to the lining of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Crohn’s inflammation commonly occurs at the end of the ileum (small intestine) and at the cecum (the beginning of large intestine) where they connect. However, Crohn’s disease conditions vary by person and inflammation can affect an individual in one section or segments throughout the GI tract (from the oral cavity to anus). Inflammation caused by Crohn’s disease can spread deep into the layers of the bowel tissue resulting in thickening of the bowel wall that does not subside. Subsequently, inflammation from Crohn’s disease can develop into colorectal cancer. 

ALL OF OUR TREATMENTS ARE TAILORED AND PERSONALIZED

CROHN’S DISEASE SYMPTOMS

The cause of Crohn’s disease is not known. Crohn’s disease is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system is unable to differentiate between their cells from foreign pathogens. The body’s natural defense system would mistakenly believe these harmless bacteria in their intestinal tract are foreign pathogens. By protecting its own body from pathogens (virus, bacteria, fungi, or other microorganisms), the immune system produces a response and attacks the harmless bacteria that aid in digestion. Subsequently, inflammation and irritation in the GI tract causes individuals to experience intestinal obstructions, rectal bleeding, fatigue, loss of appetite, mouth ulcer, slow growth and many other disturbances within the GI system. Crohn’s disease can also cause inflammation on the skin, eyes, joints, and in the liver or bile ducts.

WE HAVE THE MEDICAL EXPERIENCE TO HELP YOU

ACUPUNCTURE TO BENEFIT CROHN’S DISEASE 

 Acupuncture and herbal medicine induce a homeostatic response on the cellular level by influencing the body’s internal organs to correct imbalances in their digestion, absorption, and energy production activities. They stimulate the nervous system to release chemicals in the muscles, spinal cord, and brain. These chemicals will change the experience of pain, or they will trigger the release of other chemicals and hormones which influence the body’s own internal regulating system. Acupuncture helps Crohn’s disease by reversing tissue damage and reduces inflammation and improves quality of life. Acupuncture is safe and painless. There are no drugs or hazardous equipment used and no surgical operation performed.

WE TREAT DIFFICULT DISEASES USING NATURAL MEDICINE ONLY

“Once natural medicine began, he started to improve day by day and within weeks he had gained back all the weight he had lost (30-35 lbs)! By December 2009 he was off all medicine drugs and has been symptom free (healed from Crohn’s Disease) since 2009!... He’s back to normal and has been for 4 years now!”

CROHN’S DISEASE RISK FACTORS ARE

 Crohn’s disease is believed to be hereditary. That being the case, a significant chance an individual will have Crohn’s disease is if someone in their family or a close relative has Crohn’s disease. An individual has a higher risk of developing Crohn’s disease when both mother and father have IBD. Crohn’s disease affects both men and women between the ages of 15 and 35. Caucasian and Eastern Europe Jewish lineage have a higher risk of developing Crohn’s disease than African American, American Indian, Asians, or Hispanics. Active smokers are twofold likely to develop Crohn’s disease than non-smokers.

WE HAVE THE MEDICAL EXPERIENCE TO HELP YOU

TREATMENT OF CROHN’S DISEASE

 There is no cure for Crohn’s disease. Crohn’s disease can be treated with specific medication based on the severity and location of the condition. Medication such as steroids and immunosuppressants, aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, and immunomodulators can be prescribed to help control, sustain flair-ups and reduce inflammation. However, each medication has various side effects such as headaches, heartburn, acne, bone loss, high blood pressure, low white blood cell count and other side effects that can potentially lead to higher chance of developing infections and pancreatitis. Additionally, some medication can take several weeks or months before becoming active and require regular screening due to high risk of colorectal cancer. Since Crohn’s condition occasionally goes into remission, it is unknown if a specific prescription drug is effective towards Crohn’s disease. Surgery may be required if all medication drugs have been exhausted and ineffective towards the individual. Depending on the location of the condition, the operation consists of removing that specific part of inflammation from the intestines. However, each part of the internal organs plays a vital role in maintaining homeostasis within our body. By removing an essential part of the organ, Crohn’s disease can reappear but in other areas of the intestines that can lead to diarrhea or malnutrition.

CASE STUDIES

 According to Healthcare Medicine Institute, modern research has proven that acupuncture has improved Crohn’s Disease Activity Index (CDAI) scores and quality of life, increased hemoglobin levels, and reduced C-reactive protein (CRP) levels for patients with Crohn’s disease. CDAI score measures during medicine and medical procedure for responses and remission of Crohn’s disease. CRP measures inflammation levels in the blood. Researchers have shown that acupuncture induces a powerful anti-inflammatory response that improves patient’s intestinal mucosal epithelium and intestinal glands in Crohn’s disease patients. Testimonials on Agape Natural Health have shown patients with Crohn’s disease have substantially improved with acupuncture. By receiving acupuncture and consuming herbal medicine regularly, it has proven to cause Crohn’s disease to stay in remission and promote health and quality of life.

More Americans die from heart disease than from any other illness. According to Time magazine “Special Issue”, Fall 1996, around 60,000 heart valves were replaced each year and between 1992 and 1993, there were 698 pericardium replacements. On the average, there are 1400 hearts transplanted annually in America, with 2361 hearts replaced in 1995 alone. And except during the 1918 influenza pandemic, heart disease has been the number one killer of Americans each year since 1900. A recent article in Prevention magazine noted that one easy way to reduce weight and lessen the risks of heart disease is to decrease television time to one hour a day.

If you suffer from these illness, natural medicine can greatly benefit you. We offer acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutrition, and dietary supplements to help patients promote, maintain and restore health. Call 714.979.9790 for a free consultation. Below are alarming statistics regarding health and wellness in the United States.

Each year, around 500,000 Americans suffer from stroke. One in four American adults have high blood pressure (hypertension) and one third are not even aware of the condition. Hypertension statistics are among the most difficult to determine, in part due to the number of non-symptomatic patients. Further, rates for males and females are often combined. For example, although the rate for Korean Americans is estimated to be 16% of the population, it has been found that the rate for men is closer to 22%, while that for women is only 3%. In general, Asians have hypertension at lower rates than other ethnic groups. The rates for hypertension are exceptionally higher for African-Americans. It is a leading health concern for African-Americans and those with hypertension are 5 times more likely to develop chronic heart failure and 10 times more likely to suffer from kidney failure than the general population. Contributing factors may include obesity, high sodium intake, low potassium intake (due to low fruits and vegetables consumption), and socio-economic pressures.

Over 40% of deaths in the U.S. are due to cardiovascular disease (CVD). It is estimated that more than 1 in every 5 persons has some form of CVD (which also includes hypertension, stroke, and rheumatic heart disease).

In 1993, the American Cancer Society predicted that about 33% of Americans will eventually develop some form of cancer. In the early 1990s, nearly six million new cancer cases and more than four million deaths from cancer were being reported worldwide each year. In the United States during the early 1990s, more than one-fifth of all deaths was caused by cancer.  In 1996, there were an estimated 158,700 lung cancer deaths, 56,040 colon and rectum cancer deaths, and 27,800 pancreas cancer deaths. That same year, about 44,300 females died from breast cancer, 14,800 died from ovarian cancer, and 41,400 males died from prostate cancer. A recent study published in the New England Journal of Medicine showed that women who took synthetic estrogen for six or more years beyond menopause had a 45% greater risk of breast cancer. In women 60 to 64, the risk rose to 71%. The American Cancer Society study of 240,000 women showed that those who took synthetic estrogen for at least six years had a 40% increase risk of fatal ovarian cancer. In 1997, the American Cancer Society published the incidence of cancer in the U.S. from 1988 to 1992.  These statistics stated that African-American males and Anglo-American males have the highest rates of cancer, while Korean and Native American women have the lowest.

25 million Americans are affected by osteoporosis. These are mostly women, over the age of 50. Osteoporosis results in 1.5 million fractures per year, costing patients $10 billion in hospital and nursing home care.

Between 1983 and 1993, the number of hip replacements increased from 49,000 to 83,000. Knee replacements almost quadrupled to 131,000 in the U.S. between 1983 and 1993.

Genital herpes, caused by the herpes simplex virus, affects 20 million Americans, with 500,000 new cases annually.

16 million Americans are plagued with Type I or Type II diabetes. Non-Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (NIDDM) is of special interest to nutritionists, and shows wide divergence in prevalence rates. The CDC reported in 1993, the rates of NIDDM by population group, determined through national surveys and specific studies: African Americans, 9.6 percent; American Indians, 5-50 percent (depending on tribal affiliation); Cuban Americans, 9.1 percent; Japanese Americans, women – 16 percent, men – 20 percent; Puerto Ricans, 10.9 percent; and Caucasian American, 6.2 percent. Other differences have been noted. Native Hawaiians have twice the rate of Koreans and Filipinos living in the United States. Japanese, Asians, Indians, and Samoans have shown rapidly increasing rates after immigrating to the U.S. as compared to other Asians and Pacific Islanders.
285,000 unnecessary hysterectomies are performed each year in the U.S.

10 million U.S. men suffer from impotence.

2.4 million Americans suffer from panic disorder and 30% of these people develop agoraphobia, which is the fear of leaving home.

Lyme disease causes flu-like symptoms in 100,000 Americans yearly.

There are 1.6 million emphysema sufferers in the United States.

10 million patients suffer from incontinence in the U.S.

23 million Americans suffer from migraines – women three times more often than men do. It is estimated that 25-30% of the female population has experienced migraines.

Sleep disorders, such as narcolepsy (sudden overpowering episodes of daytime sleepiness) affect 200,000 Americans and insomnia affects about 9%.

There are more than 44,000 cornea and 6200 sclera repairs and replacements performed each year in the United States.

Since 1988, there have been more than 23,000 liver transplants.

The death rate from asthma, which attacks 12 million Americans annually, has grown 6% each year since the late 1970s.

11,000 American people have become paralyzed each year due to spinal cord injuries.

HIV infection and AIDS have hit ethnic groups disproportionately. Over half of AIDS cases occur in African-Americans and Mexican-Americans, although they comprise less than 1/4 of the total U.S. population. These figures are even more alarming for women and children: 75% of AIDS cases in women occur among African-Americans and Mexican-Americans; and 80% of cases among children are African-Americans and Mexican-Americans. As of 1995, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reported that the total number of cases (501,310) were distributed as follows: cases among Asians/Pacific Islanders living in the U.S., 3,457; cases among African-Americans, 170,271; cases among Mexican-Americans, 87,387; and cases among Native Americans, 1,283.

End-stage renal disease (ESRD) may be caused by many primary conditions, particularly diabetes and hypertension. Incidence rate (by percentage in each group) varies by ethnicity. Renal failure among Mexican-Americans showed that hypertension was the primary diagnosis in 40% of cases among non-Hispanic African-Americans, but for only 25% of cases in Hispanic African-Americans. The reverse was true for diabetes, which accounted for 25% of cases among non-Hispanic African-Americans, and for 39% of cases in Hispanic African-Americans. Diabetes was the primary cause of ESRD in 27% of non-Hispanic Anglo-Americans, but for 45% of Hispanic-Americans. This accounts for the variation in rates found in the broader categories of African-Americans and Anglo-Americans.

Infant mortality rates are some of the most detailed, demonstrating a large variation between ethnic groups. The gap between Anglo-Americans and African-Americans infant deaths has widened since 1950. Those for many Asians/Pacific Islanders and Hispanics living in the U.S. are lower than for Anglo-Americans, but not for all Asian-Americans and Mexican Americans. The rates for native Hawaiians and Puerto Ricans are higher. Rates for Native Americans are also high. Discrepancies are thought due largely to premature and low-birth weight births.

Overweight is increasing in most U.S. population groups. It has gone up 36% since 1960.
