Adrenal Fatigue: The 21st Century Stress Syndrome
JUNE 2013 P: (07) 55253471 info@beyondgoodhealth.com Read ONLINE: www.BeyondGoodHealthClinics.com.au
by Bojan Schianetz Experts estimate that up to 80 % of adults in Western countries suffer some level of adrenal fatigue. This makes adrenal fatigue one of the most under-diagnosed illnesses. Pretty bad news considering that wrong or late treatment of adrenal fatigue can have serious consequences. Here are some of the common symptoms that indicate low adrenal function. Please check, if one or more sound like you or people you know. You are having difficulties getting up in the morning despite having slept for 8 hours and more. You are feeling generally exhausted and too tired to get through your day. Even simple tasks seem to require ten times as much effort as they used to. You feel irritated even by little things that never used to bother you before.

You simple cannot do without coffee or other pick me ups anymore. You constantly crave sweet or salty foods. You are getting more and more forgetful.
WEEKLY E-NEWS Decisions feel harder to make. Colds and other infections are more frequent and stay with you for weeks. Little injuries take much longer to heal. You are feeling dizzy or light headed when you quickly get up from a chair or a lying position. You start feeling depressed, as all seems too hard. You almost never do anything just for fun anymore. If some or many of these symptoms sound familiar to you, then there is a pretty good chance that you are suffering from Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome. Maybe you have already tried to get professional help, but your physicians did not find anything majorly wrong, but rather congratulated you to your low blood pressure, and/or recommended a psychiatrist. Or even worse, you were not taken seriously, and felt treated like a lazy hypochondriac. The longer adrenal fatigue stays untreated, the more likely it is to develop a host of other common health disorders, such as obesity, food sensitivities, diabetes, and depression. But here the good news: once recognized, adrenal fatigue can be treated successfully! First step is to understand why your adrenals suffer from exhaustion. In most cases, the underlying cause is some form of stress, be it physical, emotional, psychological, or environmental. Very often it is a combination of different stress factors. Events like the loss of a loved one, a divorce, the sudden or unwanted loss of your job, or an accident can trigger adrenal fatigue. But even less dramatic stresses, which occur simultaneously or over a longer time, can bring your adrenals out of balance. For instance things like an abscessed tooth, intense physical exertion, poor diet, food sensitivities,

environmental toxins, bad sleeping habits, pressure at your workplace or an unhappy relationship are often contributing factors. If you do not get enough rest and enjoyment in your life, chances are high that you develop adrenal fatigue at some stage of your life, quite independent of your age, culture or profession. Basically, adrenal fatigue can be treated by either eliminating dominant stress factors, or by learning how to better adapt to stress. This can be a longer process involving lifestyle and diet changes. But in our experience, we found that there are two relatively easy and completely natural things that help at least 80 % of our clients, and improve their situation within a few days. Firstly: Reduce your sugar and caffeine intake, and replace it with small protein snacks, at least 5 times a day, including one shortly before you go to bed. And secondly: Start some sort of relaxation exercises, such as Yoga, QiGong, deep breathing, meditation, or take the dog for a walk again. If you have only enough energy for 10 minutes then do that, but do it consistently. It will help you to slowly increase your energy levels, and soon you will want to do more, as it feels good. There are many other steps that may help you recover from adrenal fatigue. You can optimize your diet to your personal biochemistry and get checked for parasites, toxins and food sensitivities. In some cases, special supplements and replacement hormones, such as natural cortisol, adrenal cell extract, DHEA, progesterone etc. might be helpful. But here one word of caution: the timing, the quantity and the form

of supplements and hormones are absolutely critical. Therefore self-medication without and the supervision of a skilled professional can make things worse.
WEEKLY We have also foundE-NEWS that many of our clients with adrenal fatigue symptoms have unresolved emotional problems as the underlying cause for stress.

If youʼve tried some of these strategies and feel you need more support and tests, we recommend, you make an appointment with one of our specialized practitioners, because there really is no need to suffer from adrenal fatigue.

Harness the Ancient Anti-Aging Secrets of the Taoist Qi Gong Masters WEEKLY by Bojan Schianetz
E-NEWS
Are you looking for ways to rejuvenate your body? And at the same time, learn the secrets to live longer? Ask the ancient Chinese and they will recommend Taoist Medical Qi Gong as a proven way for rejuvenation and longevity. While others would blame their genetics for the conditions they are now facing, you will be surprised to know that you can prevent and defy the disease that runs in the family. Understanding How Our Body Functions Aside from the fact that our body is a physical structure composed of the muscles, bones, fascia, nerves and blood, we are energy beings. Within us exists a life force which is sometimes called “Prana” or “Chi”. This same energy is being obtained and used up in order for us to live. It circulates throughout the body through meridians and it culminates in our chakras or acupressure points. The number one cause of disease is ongoing physical and/or emotional stress. This is according to the meanwhile numerous studies done by leading medical institutions. Stress is not just a feeling, but can build up severe conditions in the body, that influences our energy system. Stresses are caused by numerous factors, such as toxins, emotions, and even more subtle influences such as electromagnetic forces. Sadly, the orthodox
health practice does rarely take consideration of the causes of all these possible stresses and their interrelationship, but rather treats symptoms. Taoist Qi Gong Healing Techniques that Increase Energy, Vitality and Potency Compared to the West, the Taoist Longevity Tradition uses a totally different approach. It is a practical and powerful practice that uses terminologies such as “energy”, “vital essence”, “spirit” and “alchemy”. Their philosophy focuses on us being an energy source that accumulates vital essence. Wasting our pre-birth Jing and getting insufficient post-birth Jing causes an adverse effect on our health. Therefore, those who want to enjoy greater health benefits need to transform more Jing.
Influencing Your DNA and Telomeres Surprisingly, the principles followed by the ancient Taoist Healing are quite similar to the discoveries of modern science. In fact,

modern science has learned how to work with our genes so that it will have a positive influence on our body. They have also discovered that once the telomeres at the end of the genes shorten, it greatly affects the ability of the body to rejuvenate itself. Certain Chinese herbs have been used to counter this shortening for
We continuously absorb toxins, such as chemicals and heavy metals, not only through the food that we eat, but even through the air that we breathe. These toxins are expected to cause a poor reaction among our DNA, and this is when disease happens. There are certain steps to follow if you want to take hold of your DNA. Follow the teachings of the ancient Taoist healers and change to a healthy lifestyle and positive gene expression. This will boost your chances to live a healthy, diseasefree and long life. Scientific study: Qi Gong changes genetic expression Mind-body practices that elicit the relaxation response (RR) such as Qi Gong and Tai Chi have been used worldwide for millennia to reverse the detrimental physiological effects of stress.
thousands of years. Today, modern science has discovered that a person can literally transform and reprogram his DNA to prevent the disease that runs in the family. Gone were the days where you became victim to diseases due to the fact that it “runs in the family”. Today, your DNA can now promote longevity, slow aging and prevent health conditions. This new branch of science is referred to as epigenetics. It is a complex network of chemical switches that surrounds your genes. That means everything you come into contact with and everything you put into your body has the power to turn your genes on or off via different chemical pathways.
A study finalized in 2008 by the BensonHenry Institute for Mind Body Medicine in USA provides the first compelling evidence that the relaxation responses (RR’s) elicits specific gene expression changes in short-term and long-term QiGong and Tai Chi practitioners. This scientific study suggests consistent and constitutive changes in gene expression resulting from RR may relate to positive long term physiological effects.

Vegetable Fats Reduce Prostate Cancer Death Risk Source: Medical News Today; http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/261730.php
Prostate cancer patients who replace animal fats and some carbohydrates with vegetable fats have a lower risk of premature death, researchers from the University of California reported in JAMA Internal Medicine. In the United States alone, nearly 2.5 million men currently live with prostate cancer. Not much is known about how diet may influence prostate cancer progression and death rates, the authors wrote as background information. Erin L. Richman, Sc.D., and team carried out a study involving 4,577 men from the Health Professional Follow-up Study with non-metastatic prostate cancer between 1986 and 2010. They focused on the patients' dietary fat intake after diagnosis. Every four years, they completed questionnaires which asked how often they ate and drank over 130 different types of foods and drinks. Higher vegetable fat intake reduced prostate cancer death rates and deaths from any cause. Over a follow-up period of 8.4 years, 315 men died from prostate cancer and 1,064 died from any cause. Those who replaced 10% of their dietary calorific intake of carbohydrates with vegetable
fat had a 29% lower risk of lethal prostate cancer and a 26% lower risk of death from any cause. The results of this study go against what many doctors advise their recently diagnosed prostate cancer patients to do, which is "Cut out all fats from your diet". The right advice appears to be to tell the patient to consume more fat, fewer carbohydrates, and to make sure the fats come from plants and not animals. Low fat diet with fish oil supplements slow down prostate cancer progression Scientists from UCLA's Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center reported in the American Association for Cancer Research that men who ate a low-fat diet with fish oil supplements had slower progressing prostate cancer compared to those on a traditional Western diet that was high in fat. The researchers also found that the participants on a low-fat, fish oil supplement diet were able to change the structure of the cell membranes in both healthy and malignant cells in the prostate.

Evidence favours extension of cervical screening interval Source: Australian Doctor, 21 June 2013; DR Elizabeth Lord
Cervical screening intervals are under review and could be extended to three years in line with international recommendations. The ongoing national cervical screening program review is also considering delaying the Pap test starting age to 25. Professor Ian Hammond, chair of the Renewal steering committee, said international evidence supported a three year interval. “Weʼre doing very well but we have a very intensive screening program,” he said. “Other countries have the same result in terms of incidence and mortality with a less intensive program.”
The potential to miss opportunities for detection was a safety concern, the report said. But potential benefits of a less intensive screening strategy would include a reduction in patient anxiety, fewer false positives and a reduced risk of unnecessary treatment and complications, it said. The review is also considering alternative screening methods, specifically liquid-based cytology and HPV DNA testing.
Food Detox Salt Crystals This is one of the bestselling product in our clinics. The Food Detox Crystals are for you if you are concerned about the toxins in your food. Humans are at the top of the food chain. This means we bio-accumulate environmental toxins that are in our environment, and toxins that go into the processing of our food. Most of our food has been exposed to fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and fungicides. These invisible enemies, called agrochemicals, cause all types of health problems especially for children. Even in very low levels, the US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 30% of all insecticides, 60% of herbicides and 90% of fungicides are carcinogenic. Did you know that most meat, including fish, comes from factory farming? In order to maximize animal production, companies apply multiple hormones and antibiotics. Bovine Growth Hormones (BGH) is used in diary factories to increase milk-production. Antibiotics are also commonly applied to livestock to help keep the animals free of infection. Food Detox Crystals may help you to: -eliminate and detoxify thousands of food toxins -increase your own natural ability to detoxify -relieve abdominal bloating and discomfort after eating -remove tiredness after a heavy meal -quickly reduce or mitigate an adverse reaction to food -reduce food cravings fast. (Note: All claims of effectiveness are based on numerous clients experiences and not yet on conventional evidence-based practices). To order go to www.ChiHealth.co

Biomesotherapy more than just pain relief by Bojan Schianetz Biomesotherapy is a proven therapy originating in Germany and combining the stimulation of acupuncture and trigger points in the body with a saline solution and homotoxicological products. In conventional medicine, the actual drug you take suppresses the symptoms immediately. That is why one needs to take high doses of chemical substances in order to suppress for example pain. And as soon as the medication stops working, the patient has to take another pill to kill the pain again. The same goes for antiinflammatories, medication to control your blood pressure or pills for high cholesterol. Thatʼs how these drugs are designed. However, Biomesotherapy stimulates the bodyʼs self healing capacities, relaxes muscles and normalises body system imbalances. The use of specific points and homotoxicological products has a synergistic effect of the bodyʼs trigger points and organ access areas. The Homotoxicological remedies allow instant access to the bodyʼs defense mechanisms and facilitate the bodyʼs elimination of toxic substances. They stimulate the bodyʼs inherent capacity to
heal itself, but do not suppress symptoms. The saline solution is inserted subcutaneously in order to stimulate the extracellular matrix, stimulate deeper organ systems and activate the action of the homoeopathic directly to the site where it is required. Biomesotherapy is used to treat and support a wide range of chronic and acute health conditions including: Pain and inflammatory conditions including rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia, bursitis, back pain, acute sprain, sports injuries, migraines and headaches. Obesity, adrenal exhaustion, anemia, chronic fatigue syndrome. Skin ageing, cellulite, and spider veins. Gastrointestinal and hepatic disorders, including heartburn (reflux), nausea, irritable bowel syndrome, diarrhoea, and constipation. Psychological issues, e.g. stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia. Female and male hormonal anomalies, including menopausal symptoms, pms, fibroids, endometriosis , male infertility and female infertility. Immune system and allergy disorders including viral and bacterial infections, bronchitis, allergies, asthma, sinusitis, and chronic candidiasis, Skin disorders including acne, psoriasis, and eczema.

Pediatric Illnesses and ADD/ADHD. Autoimmune diseases including lupus, multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, Endocrine disorders including hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and diabetes. It is also an effective and safe complementary cancer treatment postoperatively, promoting immune defense and detoxification mechanisms and counteracting the side effects of radiation and chemotherapy. Homotoxicological products come in tablets, liquid vials, oral drops, and injection solutions. Homotoxicological remedies and preparations usually have practically no side effects and may easily be combined with other medications when required. This is important for chronically ill patients who, due to their various ailments, are frequently required to take several medications at the same time. Homotoxicology is a (sophisticated) modern form of homoeopathy and is the most prescribed form of natural medicine in Germany, where it has been used for over 50 years and is practiced by conventional doctors and natural therapists alike. In fact, 80% of orthodox doctors in Germany prescribe homoeopathic or antihomotoxic preparations for their patients. The efficacy and safety of homotoxicology is supported by close to 100 clinical trials. If you would like to find out more information about Biomesotherapy, and see if it can help you, please call our clinic or send us an email.
