Encouragement Through Autism and Lupus
Although at first glance the conditions of autism and lupus appear to be vastly different, changes in diet and exercise can improve symptoms in both.
Autism is a developmental disorder with symptoms appearing in the first three years of life. Symptoms vary widely but parents of children with autism usually notice the something wrong before the child reaches the age of 18 months. For children who are verbal and typically developing the diagnosis can be difficult to make until the child reaches four or five years old. The prevailing symptom in both verbal and nonverbal children is a low tolerance for loud noises, change in routine, and showing very little affection for caregivers. Autism appears more often in boys than girls.
Lupus is an autoimmune disease that attacks joints, muscle and skin. The disease manifests itself through low energy, widespread muscle aches and joint pain. Symptoms of lupus usually appear after 35 years of age. This disease affects more women than men.

Understanding the Threats of Leukemia
Good news for those who need treatments for leukemia: new research reveals that Parthenolide, a compound present in the Feverfew plant, could kill leukemia stem cells without harming healthy blood cells. It was found out that after 18 hours, leukemia cells exposed to Parthenolide was destroyed. This is better than Cytaribine, a common drug used in chemotherapy, because Cytaribine is known to decrease blood cells within the bone marrow. Parthenolide may also make cancerous cells more sensitive to cancer-fighting agents so that destruction of these may be speeded up. With a little modification and testing, it would be an effective cure against this dreaded disease.
In Ayurveda, Leukemia is viewed as an imbalance which results from the failure of the digestive system. The food is not ingested and broken down properly. This creates a poisonous slime which circulates in the body and kills the healthy parts in it. To remedy this, the three elements of vata, pitta and kapha present in the body must be rebalanced. This can be done through a balanced diet. Eating raw fruit and vegetables purifies the toxins in the digestive system. Also, a relaxed lifestyle will do wonders, along with proper sleep and exercise. By doing these, the toxins will be removed, the balance restored and positive energies are freer to heal the body.
