The Tao of why your mother told you to never stick out your tongue

What’s up with the tongue
stuff, my mother always told me not to stick
my tongue out and I have been going
to doctors all my life and no one ever looked at my
tongue.
Why do you want to see the tongue anyway?”

There is more to it than what your mother told you.
Tongue diagnosis has been used in
Chinese medicine for thousands of years.
It tells a story that you can’t get from a blood
test or a stool sample.
Our tongue can reveal a lot of valuable
information and when I was in school they spent
weeks going over all of the tongue stuff and what
to be looking for.

You can see what organ is affected and decide
what treatment to do. The tip of the tongue shows
changes in the lung and the heart. The sides give
me an indication if there is a problem in the Liver and
Gall bladder. Right in the center, shows the health of
the stomach and the spleen and when you look at the
very back you can see if there is something going on
with the kidneys. The color, shape movement,
appearance and even the coating give me a ton of information.

I have looked at thousands of tongues over the years
and once you know what you are looking for you
can nail the problem.

It is the same with Qigong practices after you have
been practicing for years you can know if the teacher
and the practice have any value for you.

When I was in China I trained with many different groups.
Some just had Maoist exercise programs,
that’s right Maoist – A No energy water down program.

On the other hand I spent some time at the
monastery at Long Hu Shan and I got some real gems.

If you don’t know, ya just don’t know.
I have been practicing, training and teaching for
decades and I can assure you I’ve got the real goods.
Practice and you will feel the Qi flowing through your
channels and meridians right away.

The Most Important Blood Work

Examinations at a doctor’s office are important to
determine what a persons
health picture is all about, and I do some very
traditional ones as well as more esoteric tests
like Medical Qi Gong,Chakras testing and
Applied kinesiology to determine what
needs to be addressed first.

I’ll use the Chinese pause technique, look at the
tongue, and observe the quality of the skin, nails, hair.
I’ll go over every inch of the body, looking for
clues on how to open the blockage and I ask a
ton of questions to see what’s going on internally.

On the physical level from a scientific stand point
there is no general screening test
that is more efficient, effective and affordable
than a comprehensive blood chemistry panel.
It allows me to quickly assess what’s going
on with your health at a glance.
It is the ultimate tool in biomedical laboratory
sciences to evaluate patients.

Your blood test can be the answer to identifying
imbalances in the body’s metabolism. If you’re
healthy, you should get your blood work done at
least every year. I get mine done every six months
and have the two tests compared to see if there are
any changes for better or worse.

Things like diet, exercise, stress and illness
will show up. If you are going
through a health crisis,
I’d check every three months just
to stay on top of things.
Many health problems can be
prevented and
managed effectively with early
detection.

In general we are not up to date on what’s going on
inside and a blood test will show the function
of the immune system, thyroids and if you
have a tendency for any hidden illnesses it
can be a good way to get an early look.

The longevity system in the USA hardly exists.
We are on a program of:
‘If it isn’t broken, don’t fix’ it and the
insurance companies like it just the way it is.

A decade ago the average annual lab work
ordered in a physical exam included a
Chem-24, CBC with differentials, TSH, and
a lipid panel. However, the healthcare model
today customarily performs a simple chem-7
and lipid panel. The addition of a TSH, a CBC,
or other tests are no longer a routine.
Physicians who order extra tests are
considered unqualified providers.
Who do you think is judging them?
Whoever they are, it’s not about your
health and longevity or the quality of your life.

I understand that many of us have given up on
the current healthcare model and are sick and tired
of being over-medicated. Many of us are now
looking for a more natural approach.
A comprehensive healthcare evaluation
and blood chemistry panel is a good place to
start and get you back on the road to good health.

I wish you the best in your Health,
Wealth and Happiness

Discover The Nutritional Story in your Blood Test and take charge of your own health

I was having lunch with Nastia
this afternoon and I asked her,
when was the last
time you had a check up and
your blood work done?

She said, “Noting hurts, I sleep fine,
I have a good appetite and I am
regular with my period, why even
check if I’m feeling good.
Is it necessary to get a check up
when I feel just fine?”

You would be surprised how
many people ask me the same thing.
If it’s not broken why fix it?

This may be true in many situations
but not your health.

Our health has
to be attended to all the time with
diet, exercise, hygiene, vitamins,
minerals and proper attitude.
If it’s not, you are looking for big problems.

You can compare your body to a garden.
The garden needs to be watered, and
weeded, you need to maintain the right
pH balance and get the right amount
of sunlight, if you hope to harvest
anything of value.

In our human system we also need
to check things like blood pressure,
proper Ph balance, blood flow, organ
function, as well as checking out the
alternative stuff. It’s a good idea to
have your acupuncturist take a look
at your internal balance.
Although there are many ways to
check, I have found that the most
accrued and scientific way is
through the blood work.

There are different values to
consider when reading blood work;
most doctors use the standard
clinical range. In my opinion
this is a mistake. It is based on
an average of very sick people,
very healthy people, and everyone in between.

The Functional Range, is a more
sensible range as it’s going to be
smaller because the calculations
are designed to eliminate the
extremes on both ends of the gamut.

The key point about the Functional Range
is that it can be used to optimize health
by restoring the sub-healthy ranges
before they turn into dis-ease.

In my office we use the state of the
art analyzing software to design a
clinical nutrition plan to optimize
the total health of the patient.

If your doctor is just focused on
the standard clinical range alone,
diseases like diabetes wouldn’t be
detected until the blood sugar is
above the normal level. That could
be too late and the damage on your
organs could already have started;
even if you don’t have any symptoms.
It is always better to be as natural as
possible, no matter if it’s your diet or
treatment. It’s much better to treat
naturally and assist the body in
healing itself by strengthening
the immune system.

I wish you the best in your Health,
Wealth and Happiness
