When we hear that someone has passed away, we often hear: "No way, wasn't he always in good health? We met him two days ago?"
In fact, disease does not suddenly take away someone's life, but is caused by long-term neglect, ignorance and continuous damage to the body.
As the saying goes: It takes less than a day to freeze three feet. Many chronic diseases develop over several years, ten or even decades, and eventually become incurable. This is very regrettable!
If we understand the entire process of the development of chronic diseases and can take corresponding measures in each process to prevent the disease from progressing to the next step, then we can take good control of our own health. Reduce our risk of chronic disease!
Chronic diseases have accounted for 86.6% of the total mortality rate in China
Chronic diseases generally go through nine stages from the beginning to the end when they are not cured. At each stage of the development of the disease, if we can If the root cause of the disease is eliminated, the pain or discomfort in the body will disappear, the disease will not progress to the next stage, and the body will recover naturally.
? Physical pain or discomfort is actually a warning. It warns people that they should change immediately, otherwise it will worsen!
? But in real life, people usually use drugs, because drugs can cover up pain or discomfort and give people the impression of improvement. In fact, the cause of pain has not been eliminated, and the disease will continue to develop.
For example, Western medicine’s response to high blood pressure and diabetes is to take antihypertensive drugs and inject insulin. This treatment only temporarily controls the symptoms of the disease and prevents people from dying quickly. The cause of the disease is It is not eliminated. The patient has to take medicine and insulin for the rest of his life until complications eventually break out and pass away!
Let’s discuss these nine stages respectively. I hope friends will know them well and share them with more people! (For the convenience of reading, this article introduces the word "toxin". It does not refer to a specific toxin, but a general term: any substance that is harmful to human cells, including bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, free radicals, Uric acid, metabolic waste, etc. are called toxins in this article)
The first stage: sneezing, vomiting
Sneezing refers to foreign matter (such as dust, bacteria, viruses, pollen, etc. ) enters the nasal cavity, causing an involuntary conditioned emission of the nasal cavity and expelling foreign matter from the nasal cavity. Sneezing is the body's first line of defense, which means that the body is very sensitive at this time and can clean itself at any time.
If you live in a polluted environment and have not sneezed for many years, it means that your first line of defense has failed and has officially entered the initial stage of disease development
The second stage: runny nose and spitting
If you live in a highly polluted city and you don’t have a runny nose or spitting, you can tell us that we are in great danger because this represents our mucosal system. Something has gone wrong, indicating that the body's ability to remove these harmful substances has been greatly reduced!
Where do the harmful substances breathed into the body go? Unfortunately, they all remain in the body, turning into a dull complexion, a tired body, and chronic inflammation!
? If a person smokes every day, and if he can spit, the probability of him getting lung cancer is still very small. If he smokes every day, but has no phlegm to spit, after many years, he will have a high probability of getting lung cancer. Get lung cancer! Runny nose and spitting are the human body’s second line of defense. At this time, the human body can also expel garbage directly from the body!
The third stage: physical fatigue
At this stage, the total energy of the human body is not enough to cope with the body’s own daily work, such as the body’s self-detoxification, digestion and absorption, cell repair, etc. Symptoms include general weakness, sleepiness, low back pain, loss of appetite, easy internal heat, acne, etc.
The reason why the body has these symptoms is because the human body's regulatory function is showing up. The reason why the human body is weak and does not want to work, and wants to sleep and rest is to let the human body save more energy to remove toxins from the body! At this time, we must have balanced nutrition to provide sufficient ammunition for the immune system in the body and sufficient raw materials for the repair of human cells, especially the intake of multiple vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber.
If you do not pay attention to this stage, do not adjust, do not rest, do not adjust nutritionally, do not exercise moderately, continue to stay up late, work with high intensity, and continue to ruin your body, then the body’s natural immunity will decline sharply. Decline, the fourth stage of disease development is coming soon!
The fourth stage of fever
If the toxins produced during the physical fatigue stage cannot be discharged, the toxins will slowly penetrate into the body's blood, lymphatic system and other tissues. Due to the self-regulation of the human body, the body will initiate violent actions to remove toxins from the body. The method is to have a fever!
When the accumulation of toxins exceeds the limit that the human body can tolerate, and if it is not removed, it will destroy the functions of the human body. At this time, the human body will increase its own temperature to liquefy and burn the toxins, forcing the toxins to penetrate into the blood, and then be eliminated. It is sent to the intestines, bladder, lungs, skin and other detoxification organs for elimination from the body, thereby speeding up metabolism and promoting health.
Through fever, the body temperature increases, bacteria and viruses cannot replicate normally, lose their ability to reproduce, and die in large numbers; fever can also speed up metabolism, burning toxins in the body and turning them into energy for use by the body; /p>
Fever is a typical physiological reaction that is useful for physical health, but in many cases it is treated as an enemy, and is treated as a scourge by many people who want to get rid of it quickly. All fever-reducing drugs and antibiotics were used, thinking that as long as the fever symptom was eliminated, the problem would be solved. Little did they know that this behavior affected the body's self-healing and self-cleaning abilities!
Studies have shown that fever itself will not harm the body. Some damage to the brain caused by high fever is due to dehydration. As long as you drink more warm water during the fever, the human body will not be harmed; Fever consumes a lot of energy to raise the body temperature. At this time, it is necessary to cooperate with the body to replenish nutrients to provide enough energy for the body to have a fever;
If the body cannot raise the body temperature above 39°C, it will If you have repeated low-grade fevers, or use drugs to artificially reduce the fever, the body will be unable to complete the task of destroying bacteria and viruses, expelling toxins, and cleaning the body through fever. Then the development of the disease will enter the next stage, and the body will also start the next stage. Defense system: allergic reaction
Note: The following three types of people cannot bear the fever and must go to the hospital
1. Children, especially infants and young children
2 , heavy people, especially pregnant women in their first trimester
3. Elderly people, especially those with multiple chronic diseases
The fifth stage: physical allergies
< p> Constitutional allergy is another state in which the human body activates its self-protection function and accelerates body activities to eliminate toxins. It is a way to remind the body to take actionMany symptoms will appear at this stage:< /p>
1. Frequent urination and urgency. This is a symptom caused by excessive acidity in the urine irritating the bladder. If the toxin concentration is too high, kidney stones may also form
2. Diarrhea : Due to excessive intestinal toxins and long-term corrosion of the intestines, it is easy to form gastrointestinal diseases such as colitis, leading to acute gastrointestinal peristalsis and repeated episodes of diarrhea.
3. Various skin diseases. The skin is not only the largest organ of the human body, but also a very large detoxification organ. The human body freely and continuously uses the 4 billion pores on the skin from head to toe to detoxify. When the toxins excreted by the skin are too much and too concentrated, they will erode the skin and cause allergic symptoms such as itching. In some cases, this is not only a manifestation of excessive toxins in the body, but also a manifestation of improvement in body detoxification. At least at this time, the skin can still discharge toxins. We must look at it correctly. If the skin cannot discharge these toxins, it is a big trouble!
4. Increased body sensitivity: such as headaches, dizziness, cardiovascular disease, elevated blood sugar, elevated blood lipids, etc. Because the toxin content in the blood is too high and precipitation continues to occur in the blood vessels, the inner diameter of the blood vessels slowly narrows and loses elasticity, resulting in poor blood circulation and decreased cell function.
5. Obesity or weight loss: Obesity is an accumulation in the body caused by the body's inability to discharge excess fat and metabolic waste. Some fat will accumulate in liver cells and slowly form fatty liver. World Health Organization Organizations have confirmed that obesity is a metabolic disease; weight loss is due to too much intracellular toxins and waste, and the cells work in a diseased manner, resulting in disorders of nutrient absorption and utilization
6. Nausea and vomiting: especially in the morning It occurs more often because detoxification is most active in the morning
7. Itchy nose and rhinitis, because the nasal mucosa is thin and easy to detoxify, and the toxins are acidic, which will cause rhinitis if they continue to corrode the mucosa
8. Emotional hypersensitivity: such as tension, depression, anxiety, distress, worry, irritability, irritability, difficulty falling asleep or poor sleep quality; some also have body odor, bad breath, black circles, ugly complexion, irregular menstruation or excessive menstrual flow Wait
Unfortunately, many of us have been suffering from allergies for many years, but we don’t know what is bothering them, because this state does not reach a clinical disease state, and doctors can’t find out the cause. Many people drag their exhausted bodies around to live like this.
At this time, if even this defense mechanism is artificially terminated with anti-allergic drugs, the symptoms of allergies are artificially eliminated, and the toxins in the human body are not completely discharged, then the human body will not let it go. The accumulation of toxins in the body triggers the next preventive mechanism, which is what doctors call "inflammation." At this stage, it has reached a medical disease state!
Stage 6: Inflammation
In layman’s terms, inflammation is a reaction caused by toxins concentrated in a certain part of the body to be excreted and corrode a certain part. Inflammation is the most intense phase of the body's detoxification and self-restoring activities. Its symptom is pain, which is the body's warning to people that the body is in danger. It is also the strongest cry for help to the human immune system. If this trend cannot be reversed, human cells will eventually become disordered and out of control!
If a person feels pain for a long time and cannot bear it, it means that the toxins in the body have reached an unprecedented level. Before disaster strikes, the human body will make a desperate effort to eliminate these toxins - inflammation;
During inflammation, the toxins in the body will gather in a certain organ or a certain part of the human body for centralized elimination, and the toxins will continue to The ground erodes this part, resulting in inflammation, such as dermatitis, rhinitis, gastritis, enteritis, pneumonia, prostatitis, gynecological inflammation, etc.
Sadly, many people still do not take active measures at this time. Action, mistakenly thinking that it is just a little inflammation and will not die; on the contrary, they like to use drugs to suppress the pain. The drugs will make the pain disappear temporarily, but the problem still exists.
When the body's detoxification activities are suppressed, toxins in the body will continue to accumulate and infect other organs. The original toxins are not discharged, and new toxins will be introduced due to taking the medicine, further increasing the burden on the liver and kidneys!
The occurrence of inflammation is a critical moment, and your actions are crucial. The actions taken at this time will have two results: one is to restore health and the body is full of vitality again; the other is to allow the disease to worsen, Until it's out of control!
Seventh stage ulcer
The development of the disease to this stage means that the body’s defenses in the first six stages have completely collapsed, viruses, bacteria, and toxins have penetrated, and the body has suffered a long-term Due to the damage, many cells and tissues are damaged, and at the same time, the body does not have enough nutrients to repair these damaged cells, and ulcers occur!
Simply put, an ulcer is when a certain part of the human body has been poisoned by toxins for a long time. Many cells or tissues have been damaged, and severe pain will be felt at this time.
Gastric ulcer is a typical example - gastric ulcer is mostly caused by Helicobacter pylori in the stomach defeating the body's immune system and multiplying in large quantities in the body, causing ulcers on the stomach wall. In severe cases, it will Stomach perforation!
When the human body reaches the ulcer stage, it means that the human body is extremely lacking in nutrients, and the body no longer has enough raw materials and ability to heal the ulcer.
For ulcers, doctors will reduce the secretion of gastric acid according to the symptoms (omeprazole, also known as Losec, is a proton pump inhibitor that can effectively inhibit the secretion of gastric acid), and reduce the secretion of gastric acid. The pain symptoms caused are used as the direction of treatment, plus the protective agents sucralfate and bismuth potassium citrate that protect and treat the gastric mucosa.
As everyone knows, the consequences of this are: reducing the secretion of gastric acid will inevitably affect the digestive function of the stomach, causing insufficient digestion and absorption of nutrients, making nutritional deficiencies more serious, and forming a vicious cycle. Moreover, the side effects of the drug can also damage the liver, kidney and intestinal absorption functions. It is really like killing an enemy by one thousand and damaging one by one!
At the ulcer stage, if you are still unable to increase comprehensive and balanced nutrition and stop and rest to allow the ulcer to heal quickly, the body will be forced to enter the next defense stage: hardening.
Note: People may misunderstand that when living conditions are so good now, how can we still lack nutrition? In fact, the nutrients needed by the human body include seven major categories. See "Absorption of Nutrients and Human Health". What we do not lack are basic nutrients such as sugars, lipids, and proteins, but what our body lacks is a variety of vitamins, minerals, and dietary supplements. Fiber and sometimes even water!
According to former Minister of Health Wang Longde, our daily healthy diet ratio should be: one portion of eggs and meat, two portions of staple food, three portions of fruits, and four portions of vegetables. Vegetables and fruits actually account for 70% of the daily diet. How many of us can do this? In fact, this 70% amount is to supplement the human body with vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. If our daily diet cannot do this, shouldn’t we supplement it with some high-quality nutrients?
The eighth stage of sclerosis
When the ulcerated part of the human body cannot be resolved, and the daily intake of nutrients is not enough to produce enough new cells, it is impossible to replace the dead body cells. At the same time, dead body cells, bacteria, viruses and various toxins cannot be effectively removed due to the significant decline in immune system function, and will continue to accumulate at the ulcer site.
In order to prevent toxins from spreading around, a smart body will wrap them with fibrous tissue and control them in a fixed area, waiting for the body's immune system to recover, and then clean them up when it is able.
Sclerosis is the replacement of tissue that cannot be repaired due to ulcers with stiff fibers.
Give two examples
1. Sclerosis of the lungs means that the alveolar tissue cannot be healed due to long-term inflammation, resulting in ulcers and scars. The damaged alveoli are gradually replaced by fibrosis. Organizational replacement. After sclerosis occurs, the diffusion function is gradually lost, resulting in the gradual loss of the alveolar function of exchanging oxygen into the blood, causing patients to have varying degrees of dyspnea due to hypoxia, recurring and painful conditions, and finally canceration.
2. Liver cirrhosis. The liver has been damaged by chronic inflammation and toxins for a long time. The body cannot restore the damaged parts and is slowly wrapped in fibrous tissue to produce sclerosis. Long-term damage caused by viral hepatitis, such as hepatitis B and hepatitis C, can lead to massive death of liver cells and sclerosis.
When the body's tissues and organs have reached the sclerosis stage, it indicates that the physical condition is very bad, and the immune system has almost lost its combat effectiveness. Every part of the body is in a state of extreme nutritional deficiencies, and is already tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall. The body can only use the last bit of strength to wrap the toxins in a fixed area, waiting for removal and repair when it is able in the future.
If at this stage you still cannot stop harming your body, increase your intake of nutrients that your body urgently needs, and do not completely stop and rest to help your immune system restore its function; don’t think you are very young either. If it’s not your turn, look at the heroine Zhou Qian in "Get Out, Cancer King" who is not yet thirty years old and has terminal cancer
Ninth stage cancer
The course of the disease The long development of the first eight stages finally reaches its end - the cancer stage. Cancer is essentially a cancer cell formed when the DNA of normal human cells has been attacked by toxins for a long time, leading to mutations in proto-oncogenes! The reason why cancer cells are scary is that their division is uncontrolled. As long as they are not eliminated by the human immune system and as long as there are enough nutrients (cancer cells will compete for nutrients from normal cells), they will divide and grow without limit, eventually affecting Normal functions of the human body!
In fact, cancer will not be easily sentenced to death if it is not at an advanced stage or has spread to a large extent. At this time, through hospital surgery, while strengthening nutrition and enhancing the body's immunity, it is possible for the body to fully recover.
Cancer is ultimately a chronic disease, a disease caused by lifestyle. It is not invincible, nor is it easy to get: from hepatitis B to cirrhosis. , it takes about 5-10 years, and it takes another 5-10 years to develop from cirrhosis to advanced liver cancer.
You can only get this disease if you work very hard and continue to harm your body with an unhealthy lifestyle. Sadly, many people do get it!
The vast majority of our people die from various chronic diseases, and the mortality rate from chronic diseases has accounted for 86% of the total mortality rate in China. These chronic diseases can be recovered through nutritional conditioning and moderate exercise in the early stages. of.
