Allergies:
Spring Root & Branch
By Edsel Tan, L.Ac.
In spring, the axis of the Earth is tilted toward the sun and the length
of daylight rapidly increases for the hemisphere closest to the sun.
During this increase in daylight, trees and grass spring forth by
dispersing pollen through the air currents.

The
Ways to Cook and How Your Food is Affected
STEAMING preserves the vitamins and minerals in foods. In this method,
there is no addition of oils and fats, thus controlling fat and calorie
content. When you steam rather than charbroil foods, you also avoid the
danger of consuming carcinogens that are present in blackened foods.
Steaming concentrates the intrinsic flavor and juiciness of foods,
making food taste better.

ASK THE DOCTOR
Q:
I am suffering from a painful bladder situation that
has not stopped for several months now. I've been tested for several things
and doctors have told me that I have interstitial cystitis. (All tests are
negative for STD's or any other bacteria.) My main symptom is feeling like I
have to urinate all the time, although I do not feel burning with urination.
I'd like to avoid invasive procedures. Any recommendations?
A:
Has the interstitial cystitis (IC/PBS) been definitively diagnosed? I would
like to suggest your physician rule out endometriosis because some of these
symptoms may be caused by endometriosis. The only commonality for IC/PBS is
the presence of antiproliferative factor, or APF in the urine of those that
suffer from IC/PBS. Since there is no definitive cure for the condition, I
would like to suggest the following dietary and adjunctive treatments that
might help with the symptoms.
