Food Allergies

Allergies have a strong connection to the immune system. Food allergies happen when the immune system overreacts to some proteins in the food we eat. Most food allergies are caused by peanuts, shellfish, eggs, tree nuts and cow’s milk. 

Currently, there is no cure for food allergies. The best course of action is to avoid the offending food. Eating more fiber may help reduce the risk and symptoms of food allergies. Research shows that fiber helps promote and protect a healthy gut microbiota population. The gut microbiota works together with the immune system to protect against life-threatening allergic responses.

过敏与免疫系统之间有着很大的关联。当免疫系统对食物中的某些蛋白质发生过度反应时，就会出现食物过敏。大多数的食物过敏，是由花生、贝类、蛋类、坚果和牛奶引起的。

目前，食物过敏无法治愈。最好的方法就是避免摄取会造成过敏的食物。多吃纤维可帮助降低食物过敏的风险，以及减轻食物过敏的症状。研究表明，纤维有助于促进和保护健康的肠道微生物群。肠道微生物群能够与免疫系统协同工作，以防止危及生命的过敏反应。

Zika virus, TB made a comback, what's next? and How?

Do you agree our health is being threatened day by day?

From Haze, to regular HFMD, seasonal flu to now Zika virus & even TB made a come back.

What will be the next?

As we know that antibiotic is a man-made antibody, which is only applicable to fight off bacteria, not virus.

What makes it worst, is that when antibiotics are not taken correctly, it would lead to the bacteria become resistant to the antibiotics and become a superbug.

Diseases like Dengue, HFMD – there is no medication because it’s due to viral infection, how do you think ourselves or our child can recover?

What can we do to protect our health?

The only way I can think of is to get ourselves prepared!

From influenza, viruses to chronic diseases like diabetes and cancer, our best defence falls back to our army within us, within our body, who protect us 24/7!

That's why we really need to take care the health of our immune system because it's the best defence we have against any disease.

Do you know what can our immune system do for us?

There's nothing called "instant cure", we need to nourish ourselves on a daily basis.

I am blessed to know the science of Nutritional Immunology, not only I can safeguard the health of my family and beloved one easily, I am blessed as I now able to provide a solution to people around me.

Do contact me to understand more on how to stay away from diseases through plant food.

What will you do when Ebola hits Singapore?

I'm sure most of u are aware and concern about the recent outbreak of the Ebola virus.

Heathrow airport recent measure on screening may not deter the spread of the virus. See about headline from BBC. It is because when a person contracted the virus it will not immediately show symptoms.

Based on studies, the symptoms will only appear 5 to 10 days they contracted the virus.

Most of you might have known that currently there is no cure for Ebola.

So people who are diagnosed with Ebola will only receive supportive care and treatment for the complications.

And the rest depends solely on your immune system. That is why having a strong and nourished immune system is so important.

Feel free to contact me to find out more how to have a healthy immune system through wholesome plant food.

Or you may join us at Nutritional Immunology Workshop tomorrow 17th Oct 2014 at United Square, 2 to 4pm.

Tests Find More Than 200 Chemicals in Newborn Umbilical Cord Blood

U.S. minority infants are born carrying hundreds of chemicals in their bodies, according to a report released today by an environmental group.

The Environmental Working Group's study commissioned five laboratories to examine the umbilical cord blood of 10 babies of African-American, Hispanic and Asian heritage and found more than 200 chemicals in each newborn.

"We know the developing fetus is one of the most vulnerable populations, if not the most vulnerable, to environmental exposure," said Anila Jacobs, EWG senior scientist. "Their organ systems aren't mature and their detox methods are not in place, so cord blood gives us a good picture of exposure during this most vulnerable time of life."

Of particular concern to Jacobs: 21 newly detected contaminants, including the controversial plastics additive bisphenol A, or BPA, which mimics estrogen and has been shown to cause developmental problems and precancerous growth in animals. Last month, researchers reported that male Chinese factory workers exposed to high levels of the chemical experienced erectile dysfunction and other sexual problems.

"BPA is a really important finding because people are really aware about its potential toxicity," Jacobs told reporters. "This is the first study to find BPA in umbilical cord blood, and it correlates with national data on it."

Jacobs said the study focused on minority children to show that chemical exposure is ubiquitous, building on 2005 research on cord blood from 10 anonymous babies. That study found a similar body burden among the babies. This is the first study to look at chemicals in minority newborns.
"Minority groups may have increased exposure to certain chemicals, but here we didn't focus on those chemicals," Jacobs said. "The sample size is too small to see major differences, but we want to increase awareness about chemical exposures."

Leo Trasande, co-director of the Children's Environmental Health Center at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, said the findings, while preliminary, show that minority communities are often disproportionately affected by chemical exposure. Trasande was not involved in the EWG study.
"Presently, minority communities suffer from a host of chronic disorders, and disproportionate chemical exposures may contribute significantly to the origins of the disparities that exist," Trasande said.

Both he and Jacobs said the findings add momentum for the call to revamp the Toxic Substances Control Act, or TSCA, the law regulating the more than 80,000 chemicals on its database. They released the report on the same day that a Senate panel is scheduled to discuss the government's strategy for managing the tens of thousands of chemicals in the marketplace with an eye toward overhauling TSCA.
TSCA does not require most chemicals to be tested for safety before they are approved for widespread use. Because of this, Trasande said, less than half of the 3,000 high-production volume chemicals on the marketplace have toxicity data, and less than one-fifth have toxicity testing data on the effects on developing organs.

"These results are alarming for their implications of health impacts on children," Trasande said.
Another challenge facing chemical regulators is understanding how the different chemicals interact together, which is particularly significant given the number of chemicals found in people.
"What we're finding are complex mixtures of chemicals that sometimes have similar toxicities," Jacobs said. "There's an increased recognition that mixtures are a problem. ... It's very difficult to evaluate, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't try. We should also try to decrease the toxicity of individual chemicals."

Another alarming article that reminding us - as a parent - the importance to be a wise consumer - not only to safeguard our own health but also our loved one, our vulnerable baby.

Some people asked me: where does all these chemicals coming from?

Other than those mentioned in the article, it can be from our daily life toiletries like toothpaste, facial wash, shampoo, body wash, body lotion and even cosmetic product like lipstick. All these chemicals will absorb into our body through our skin ya.

So it is important to take note of the carcinogenic agents like SLS, Triclosan in our daily toiletries. 

Recently I have shared the Nutritional Immunology to a pregnant mother who is suffering from severe rashes. She has rashes on her neck, arms and tummy. And it did not help after seeing specialist. She felt helpless as doctor prescribed her anti-biotic and steriod cream in the end, of course according to doctor they are safe for consumption during pregnancy.

But as a wise mother, what do you think?

I am glad I am able to help this mother with NI knowledge.

In fact, rashes is considered as allergy.


Allergy, do u know why allergy happens? It’s because our immune system is mal-function.

Allergy happens when our  immune system is hypersensitive. It will attack those non threatening agents.

So what we need is a balanced immune system. By giving our immune system correct nutrient through wholesome plant food, our immune system will know when to attack and when to stop, what to be attack and what not to be attacked and how to attack.

And also share the tips to be wise consumer with her:

1. product must be wholesome, non-GMO & organic
2. must be certified with AVA cert.
3. both manufacturer and distributor must be the same
4. if chemical product like cosmetic - must ensure the safety for example all raw material must have MSDS, free from SLS, triclosan,

Is it good to eat a meat-based high-protein diet to drive weight loss?

Read this from MyPaper on Wednesday.

"No carbs may be no good, say health experts"

"...experts warn that such diet may not necessarily be a good thing, and that there are health risks involved in going to the extreme"

"High on meat? Experts give the lowdown"

"While health experts acknowledge that cutting down on carbs can help to shed pounds, they caution against forgoing carbs altogether, or consuming too much protein."

"High-protein diets are also usually high-fat and sacrifice carbohydrates and vitamins, which are important for a balanced diet."

"Prolonged and excessive negative energy intake is technically a state of 'malnutrition' and can cause our health to deteriorate over time."

In fact we had learn this through the Live With Dr.Chen - a health seminar by world renowned nutritional immunologist.

Why do people opt for a meat based high-protein diet to lose weight?

Generally people thought insulin is one of the contributing factors of obesity while carbohydrates stimulate insulin secretion. So people now try to eat less or avoid carbs at all.

No doubt research has shown that carbohydrates intake stimulates insulin secretion, but the research findings did not point out that animal protein in the diet can cause even more insulin to be secreted.

In other words, a meat based diet stimulates the secretion of insulin to a greater degree than carbohydrates do.

When adequate amount of carbohydrates are consumed, the human body naturally converts carbohydrates into energy to meet the body's needs. But when only meat is eaten, the body does not get enough carbohydrates so it converts fats into meat into energy.

Do you know that this metabolic process will produces ketones?

Ketones are acidic by-products that create an acidic environment in our body.

We will less likely to feel hungry when our body becomes acidic. This result in reduced food intake and consequently, weight loss.

Unfortunately, the acidic environment is conducive for the formation and reproduction of cancer cells, in other words it actually increasing one's cancer risk.

Moreover, to correct the pH imbalance, our body will leach calcium from bones, causing calcium loss and increasing the risk of osteoporosis.
 http://nutritionalimmunologylifestyle.blogspot.sg/2014/06/is-cows-milk-really-good-for-us.html

Well, do you think is it worth to shed few pounds but end up with osteoporosis, cardiovascular diseases or even Cancer?

Afterall, the intention we want to lose weight is for a better health isn't it? So it is important don't get the nutrition misconception from various media.

So what is the best way to lose weight in healthy way?

--> Control one's diet and exercise.

Diet wise, reducing intake of high-calorie foods and increasing the intake of dietary fiber.

For me, it is easier to help my husband bring down his weight through diet, as hardly find time for exercise.

I am glad that my husband managed to lose about 7 kgs through a convenience and safe option called - I Shape.
http://nutritionalimmunologylifestyle.blogspot.sg/2014/07/how-does-nutritional-immunology_30.html

Why convenience? Basically we need at least 40grams of fiber per day, but do we have the time and the appetite to eat 8 or 9 cups of broccoli per day to make up the fiber amount we need?

So one I-Shape is easier and convenient to safeguard our body with adequate amount of fiber - both soluble and insoluble.

1-Shape is high in grain fiber, low in calories and has no cholesterol which is best for those with high blood pressure and cholesterol levels. The ingredients include Soy, Psyllium Husk and American Ginseng.

And why Safe?

My company has been awarded Food Safety Excellent Award by AVA for 10 consecutive years. This year EE is awarded with Silver Award.

Weight management through diet is always easier compare to exercise, as long as you don't go for unhealthy way i.e. all sorts of supplement product or drug.

HFMD

There was once both JY & JX were playing with their 2 years old cousin, the next day my SIL called me to ask me to monitor my gals because her son was down with HFMD, but both gals were fine.

Two weeks later, I brought them back to Malaysia to visit my mother. They played with my younger sister's 3 years old son. Guess what? The same episode repeated - my sister called me the next day that her son kena HFMD. And like earlier, both gals were fine too.

Before having kids, Hand Foot Mouth Disease HFMD just sound like a stranger to me. But I guess same with many parents out there, we are 'forced' to hear and learn a lot about HFMD especially after sending our kids to playgroup or childcare centre.

As HFMD is caused by virus, which is the same as cold and flu - no medicine other than your own immune system can cure.

As parents, we know the concerns of what to give our children, so I choose wholesome plant food to fight diseases and strengthen their immunity. 

So whenever I received notice from JY’s preschool that there are cases of HFMD in her school, I would usually increase her product intake to strengthen her immune system.

I will give mushroom powder which is high in polysaccharides that can effectively enhance immune function, help the body to ward off diseases. For example, the polysaccharides in ABM mushrooms are powerful anti-viral agents, preventing viruses and harmful substances from entering body tissues. 

Other than that, i will give her cactus juice - Cactus is a natural plant food that is rich in phytochemicals. Research has revealed many amazing benefits of cactus. It not only strengthen the immune system but also speed up wound healing.

So basically you can choose:

1. NI food

2. Basic food - what we eat daily (maybe you can add up fruits and vege)

3. Vitamins and mineral supplements

4. Medication, including TCM.

Which one is best for the immune system?

Quoting from CNA news on why HFMD usually on the rise in May and June:

"There is usually an increase in the number of HFMD cases in May and Jun. 

And according to doctor, it's because during the month of May and June, the climate is usually warmer, and when the weather is hot, the immune system tends to be a bit weaker.

And so it is possible that during this time, the virus for hand, foot and mouth disease can be transmitted more easily."

Do contact me if you like to know more on how to prevent HFMD more effectively :)
