“We’re learning that post traumatic stress disorder, burnout, chronic fatigue syndrome
and fibromyalgia are related in some ways to stress.”

University of California, San Francisco white blood cells women with children with chronic disorders eg; autism, cerebral palsy etc. Premature ageing - Telomeres, caps protect unraveling at ends of chromosome
pairs, Like plastic wrappers at end of shoelaces. Caps shorten each time cell divides
Young cells have long telomeres, old cells eventually shrink, stop dividing and die.
Stressed out Mothers had significantly shorter telomeres. 9 to 17 times older than their chronological age

pH-State
All ingested substances and all situations (physical, emotional or mental) that affect the body, leave either an alkaline or acid
ash residue in the urine

pH-StatepH = potential HydrogenA measurement of
Hydroxyl (oH-) ions which are negative and alkaline forming
related to Hydrogen (H+) ions that are positive and acid
forming
pH is the measurement of electrical resistance between negative and positive ions in the body
(electro-chemical reactions)
![Page 26: Practitioners Launch](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557cc7bdd8b42a09218b4ee2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
pH-StateAn alkaline forming reaction refers to any
chemical alteration in the body that produces an increased ability to energise the system and leaves an alkaline residue in the body.
An acid forming reaction refers to any chemical alteration in the body that produces a decreased ability to energise the system and leaves an acid residue in the urine.

Our body switches to alkaline phase CNS is electromagnetically negative (producing south seeking magnetic field) Our electrons spin in counter-clockwise direction Stimulates production of anabolic hormones (Melatonin & Growth hormone)

pH-StateENERGY is released when anions & cations
merge Anions migrate toward the sun (e.g. fruit &
vegetables containing calcium [leafy greens] potassium, sodium & magnesium)
Cations migrate toward the centre of the earth (denatured foods, calcium from inorganic sources) stomach requires cationic energy (acidity) for optimal efficiency

VasoStateTypes of Cholesterol1. Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL)
Harmful form of cholesterol
Influenced by diet
2. High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Helpful Cholesterol – transports cholesterol to the liver
Influenced by exercise
3. Triglycerides Fats carried through the bloodstream
Stored in fat tissue
![Page 36: Practitioners Launch](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557cc7bdd8b42a09218b4ee2/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Factors influencing Cholesterol levels
1. Heredity (familial hypercholesterolaemia)
2. Diet – Saturated & trans fatty acids Contain cholesterol – meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products
Contains no cholesterol – fruits, vegetables, vegetable oils, grains, cereals, nuts, seeds
3. Weight – Excess weight tends to increase LDL level. Weight loss tends to reduce Triglycerides and raise HDL
4. Physical activity/exercise – helps raise HDL

VasoStateFactors influencing Cholesterol levels5. Age & sex
Blood cholesterol rises until about 60 or 65 years of age
After 50 years of age, women often have higher levels of cholesterol
6. Alcohol Increases HDL – does not lower LDL Too much harms. Limited intake reduces
risk of heart attack.
7. Stress Raises cholesterol levels (maybe because of
consolation eating)
![Page 38: Practitioners Launch](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557cc7bdd8b42a09218b4ee2/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
VasoStateElevated CholesterolFACT
Elevated cholesterol is associated with atherosclerosis & cardiovascular disease (CVD)
QUESTION
Is it only cholesterol that causes atherosclerosis or are there other predisposing factors?
Influences & risk factors associated with CVD1. Low ascorbate levels
Cause lesions & predispose to plaquing
2. Excessive Homocysteine
Caused by deficiency of B6 , B12 & Folic acid during methylation process
![Page 39: Practitioners Launch](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557cc7bdd8b42a09218b4ee2/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
VasoStateInfluences & risk factors associated
with CVD3. Excessive free radical formation
Caused by environmental pollution and smoking
4. Dehydration
Causes thicker, acid blood
![Page 40: Practitioners Launch](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062419/557cc7bdd8b42a09218b4ee2/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Heart Disease & Vitamin CHeart Disease & Vitamin C Arteries are commonly depleted of Vitamin C, even in individuals
who appear healthy & well-nourished Even when cholesterol is largely eliminated from diet, Vitamin C
deficiency can cause cholesterol accumulation in heart arteries
Large daily doses of Vitamin C and comparable doses of lysine reduce anginal chest pain
Multiple studies show that diabetics have depressed, scurvy-like plasma levels of Vitamin C
Studies show that heart attacks occur more often in winter months, corresponding to decreased levels of Vitamin C due to
seasonal variations A clear protocol for preventing and reversing arterial blockages is
available and has been borne out via many studies

VasoStateNiacin (Vit B3)
1. Inhibits free fatty acid release from adipose tissue
2. Inhibits cyclic AMP accumulation which controls activity of triglyceride, lipase & hence lipolysis
3. Decreases rate of liver synthesis of LDL & VLDL
4. Produces vasodilation of cutaneous blood vessels of face, neck & chest

Probiotics- Means “For Life” as contrasted with….
Antibiotics
- “Against life”
History
- It is said that Abraham owed his long life to the consumption of sour milk – Gen 18vs8
- Roman historian Plinius recommended fermented milk products for treating gastroenteritis
- Early researchers claimed that yoghurt increased longevity, reduced diarrhoea and was abundant in the gut of breast fed infants.

Probiotics- These are live strains of good bacteria which help our digestive system work efficiently
- These include Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria
Prebiotics- These are nutrients and components of food upon which our gut bacteria feed
- These include inulin and fructo-oligosaccharides (found in artichokes, chickory root, leeks, onions & garlic)
Synbiotics- These are where probiotics and prebiotics are used in combination.
- This improves the survival of the probiotic organism because its specific substrate is available
