Seven Foods That Fight Inflammation and Belly Fat:

Fruits and vegetables

All fruits and vegetables, due to their rich nutrient and fiber content, help to combat chronic inflammation, so make sure to include adequate amounts of these foods daily. Some types of fresh produce, however, are even more potent than others.

Some terrific anti-inflammatory fruits and vegetables to include in your meal plan include apples, berries, broccoli, mushrooms, papaya, pineapple, and spinach.

 

Green tea

This mild beverage is great for helping shrink your waistline as well as for decreasing inflammation. The flavonoids in this tea have natural anti-inflammatory properties. And the compound EGCG in green tea has been shown to help reduce body fat.

  Monounsaturated fats

These heart-healthy fats help raise your healthy HDL cholesterol levels and reduce overall inflammation. Great sources include olive oil, almonds, and avocado.

 

 

Omega-3 fatty acids

Research has shown that a diet with a high percentage of omega-3 fatty acids and a low percentage of omega-6 fatty acids has been linked with decreased inflammation. Food sources of omega-3s include walnuts, flaxseed, and fish, such as wild Alaskan salmon.

 Spices

Certain spices, including garlic, turmeric, cinnamon, ginger, and chili peppers, have potent inflammation-reducing capabilities, so try adding them to meals as often as possible.

 Water

Staying hydrated is essential to flushing inflammation-causing toxins out of your body. Aim for 64 ounces of water per day. Remember: Add an additional 8 ounces of water for every 30 minutes of exercise as well.

   
Whole grains
Rich in fiber, whole grains help control the insulin response in your body. The high B vitamin content of whole grains also helps reduce the inflammatory hormone homocystine in the body.

Top 10 Habits That Can Help You Lose Weight:

Making little changes can make a big difference:

Weight control is all about making small changes that you can live with forever. As you incorporate these minor adjustments into your lifestyle, you'll begin to see how they can add up to big calorie savings and weight loss. Here are my top 10 habits to help you turn your dream of weight loss into a reality:

1. Evaluate your eating habits. Are you eating late at night, nibbling while cooking, finishing the kids' meals? Take a look around, and it will be easy to identify a few behaviors you can change that will add up to big calorie savings.

2. If you fail to plan, plan to fail. You need a strategy for your meals and snacks. Pack healthful snacks for the times of day that you know you are typically hungry and can easily stray from your eating plan.

3. Always shop with a full belly. It's a recipe for disaster to go into the grocery store when you are hungry. Shop from a prepared list so impulse buying is kept to a minimum. Eating right starts with stocking healthy food in your pantry and refrigerator.

4. Eat regular meals. Figure out the frequency of your meals that works best in your life and stick to it. Regular meals help prevent bingeing.

5. Eat your food sitting down at a table, and from a plate. Food eaten out of packages and while standing is forgettable. You can wind up eating lots more than if you sit down and consciously enjoy your meals.

6. Serve food onto individual plates, and leave the extras back at the stove. Bowls of food on the table beg to be eaten, and it takes incredible will power not to dig in for seconds. Remember, it takes about 20 minutes for your mind to get the signal from your belly that you are full.

7. Eat slowly, chew every bite, and savor the taste of the food. Try resting your fork between bites and drinking plenty of water with your meals.

8. Don't eat after dinner. This is where lots of folks pack on the extra pounds. If you are hungry, try satisfying your urge with a non-caloric beverage or a piece of hard candy. Brushing your teeth after dinner helps reduce the temptation to eat again.

9. If you snack during the day, treat the snack like a mini-meal. The most nutritious snacks contain complex carbohydrates and a small amount of protein and fat.

10. Start your day with breakfast. It is the most important meal of the day. After a long night's rest, your body needs the fuel to get your metabolism going and give you energy for the rest of the day.

Obesity and Its Effect:

The effects of obesity on physical health are well documented. The Stanford Hospital (2010) reports obesity causes up to 300,000 premature deaths a year in the United States alone.

Obesity health effects range from backaches and joint pain to life-threatening conditions. The following is a list of health conditions attributed to obesity. This list is by no means exhaustive; the effects of obesity on physical health are, unfortunately, many and varied.
Obesity side effects include:

• Angina (chest pain)
• Atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries)
• Cancer
• Diabetes
• Heart attack
• High blood pressure
• Joint pain
• Metabolic syndrome
• Mobility impairment
• Osteoarthritis
• Stroke.

Initial Natural Treatment

Medicines for obesity work in different ways. Depending on the medicine, they make you feel full sooner, limit your body's ability to absorb fat, or control binge eating.

Before you begin treatment, decide if you are ready to make the lifestyle changes needed to lose weight. Losing weight and maintaining weight loss can be hard. And it may be hard to find the motivation if you have lost and regained weight several times. Think about successes that you had before and how you were able to achieve them.

Five Abdominal Exercises you can do at Office Work:

If you sit in a desk chair for eight hours a day, there's a good chance you could use a little exercise to fire up your metabolism and engage your core muscle group. Here, five ways to work your abs while you're still on the job.

Avoiding inactivity is especially important for your core. If you sit up straight in your chair, with your feet flat on the floor, you're more likely to engage your abdominal muscles. But if you slouch -- and let your skeletal system support your body weight -- you can go the entire workday without firing up your metabolism .Here are five great ways to get a quick core workout while at work.

1: Core Leg Lift:

One of Yeager's favorite office exercises is the core leg lift, which works the deep abdominal muscles, the quadriceps and the hip flexors. To try it:

• Sit up tall in your seat. Contract your abs and lift one foot off the floor about six inches, so the knee comes straight up with the foot directly underneath (maintaining a 90-degree bend in the knee).
• Hold for 10 seconds and slowly lower it while relaxing your abs.
• Repeat with the opposite leg.
• Alternate throughout the exercise.

Up next, we've got your suitcase … but you're staying at work.

2: Chair Suitcase:

The chair suitcase, she says, targets all the main abdominal muscle except the oblique’s. You'll need to:

• Sit on the edge of the chair seat and lean back until your upper back touches the back of the chair. Tuck your tailbone under, and hold onto the arms of the chair for support.
• Bring your knees up -- with your shins parallel to the floor -- so that your torso and thighs make an "open suitcase."
• Close the "suitcase" by bringing your chest and knees toward one another.
• Open and close for 10 to 20 repetitions, two to three sets.

The sole caveat, she says, is to maintain good posture and keep your back straight, supporting your upper body on the arm rests.

"You never want to arch your back," Bowling said. "As soon as your back begins to arch, it means you need to take a break and rest"

 

3: The Plank:

Boyle recommends doing planks, which require holding a static position on your elbows:

• On the floor, get into a position where you're on your toes and on your elbows, as if you're going to do a push-up from your elbows.
• Simply hold that position.
• Start with 10 seconds, and then gradually increase duration, being mindful of maintaining good form (primarily a straight back and straight legs).

To work your obliques, do a side plank. Start on your right side, on your right elbow, with your feet on the ground, holding steady, keeping the spine straight. Then switch to the left side.

Ready to ride your bike? Don't worry -- you're still not leaving your desk.

4: Seated Bicycle Pedal:

For LaLanne, core strength set the tone for the rest of the body. Though a tireless advocate of weight training and swimming, LaLanne also was a big believer in isometrics, or using the body's own weight to provide resistance. One of his favorite exercises was the seated bicycle pedal:

• Sitting in your chair, scoot down to the edge of the seat.
• Support your upper body on the armrests.
• Pretend you're riding a bicycle, bringing each knee near the chest, keeping the abdominal muscles contracted.
• Concentrate on "pedaling" in smooth circles.

Variety, LaLanne said, was the key to making this, or any exercise, enjoyable. "Every 30 days, I do something different," he said. "So, for 30 days, I'll do everything real fast. The next 30 days, I'll do everything real slow."

According to Bowling, the most important element to doing the Seated Bicycle Pedal safely is to keep your back straight.

5: Desk Russian Twist:

To incorporate more of your office furniture, Bowling likes the desk Russian twist, which also targets all the major core muscle groups, but primarily the obliques.

You'll need to:

• Sit on your desk with your knees over the edge.
• Lean back to a 45-degree angle or as far as you can while maintaining a neutral spine (no arch).
• Rotate your torso and touch the desk beside your right hip with both hands.
• Repeat to the left.
• Begin with 8 to 10 repetitions to each side, two to three sets.

Proper technique, like most core exercises, is essential in the Russian Twist. If you can get to that 45-degree angle without arching your back, great. If not, don't. The moment your back begins to arch, you need to come forward to a point where you can hold that angle.

বাড়তি ওজন কীভাবে কমাবেন:

স্বাস্থ্যরক্ষায় আমরা এখন অনেক সচেতন ও বিজ্ঞানমনস্ক। মেদবহুলতা বা স্থূলতা এখন তাই সামাজিক সমস্যার চেয়ে স্বাস্থ্য সমস্যা হিসেবে বেশি গুরুত্ব পাচ্ছে।

মেদবহুলতা
অতিরিক্ত ওজন ও স্নেহ পদার্থের আধিক্যকে সাধারণভাবে মেদবহুলতা মনে করা হয়। এর পরিমাপ হলো বডি-মাস-ইনডেক্স বা সংক্ষেপে বিএমআই।
বিএমআই-১৮.৫ থেকে ২২.৯-এর ভেতর থাকাটা বাঞ্ছনীয় বা আদর্শ। যাদের বিএমআই ২৭.৫-এর উপরে তারা স্থূল-মেদবহুল। পক্ষান্তরে যাদের বিএমআই ২৩-২৭.৪-এর মধ্যে তারা অতিরিক্ত ওজনদার বা ওভারওয়েট। অন্যভাবে বলা যায়, উচ্চতা অনুযায়ী আদর্শ ওজনকে ১০০% ধরা হলে যাদের ওজন আদর্শ ওজনের ১০১-১১৯%-এর মধ্যে তাদের রয়েছে ‘অতিরিক্ত ওজন’ এবং যাদের ১২০%-এর উপরে তারা স্থূল। সাধারণত মানবদেহে দু’ধরনের চর্বিজাতীয় পদার্থ জমা হয়—
প্রথমত, অতিরিক্ত চর্বি নিতম্ব ও ঊরুদেশে জমা হয়। একে ‘গাইনয়েড ডিস্ট্রিবিউশন’ বলে। এতে শরীরের আকৃতি অনেকটা নাশপাতির মতো হয়। এটা সাধারণত নারীদের ক্ষেত্রে ঘটে থাকে।
দ্বিতীয়ত, অতিরিক্ত স্নেহপদার্থ পেটে জমা হয়। দেহকে আপেলের মতো আকৃতি দান করে। অর্থাত্ উদরদেশ স্ফীত হয়। একে ‘অ্যান্ড্রয়েড ডিস্ট্রিবিউশন’ বলে। এটা নারী-পুরুষ উভয়ের মাঝেই দেখা যায় এবং এ ধরনের স্নেহপদার্থের সঞ্চয় রোগের ঝুঁকি বহন করে।

  রোগের কারণ
মেদবহুলতার নানা কারণের মধ্যে প্রথমেই আসে আচরণগত ব্যাপার। সমীক্ষায় দেখা গেছে, মেদবহুল মানুষ চিরাচরিতই (ক্যালরি খরচের তুলনায়) কম খাদ্য গ্রহণের কথা বলে থাকেন। এটা হতে পারে ছোটখাটো দু-একটি খাবার যা ঘন ঘন খাওয়া হয় অথচ আমল দেয়া হয় না। কিছু হরমোন সংক্রান্ত ব্যক্তি বা এন্ডোক্রাইন ডিজিজ। যেমন— ঈঁংযরহম’ং উরংবধংব, চড়ষুপুংঃরপ ঙাধত্ু ঝুহফত্ড়সব ইত্যাদিও মেদবহুলতার সঙ্গে সম্পৃক্ত। কিছু কিছু ওষুধও পার্শ্বপ্রতিক্রিয়া হিসেবে ওজন বাড়ায় যেমন—ক্লোরপ্রোমাজিন জাতীয় ওষুধ (মাথা ঘোরানো বা বমির জন্য), এমিট্রিপটিলিন (দুশ্চিন্তা দূরকারক), ভ্যালপ্রোয়েট, কার্বামাজেপিন ইত্যাদি। গবেষণায় দেখা গেছে, তিনটি বিষয় ভবিষ্যতে ওজন বৃদ্ধির সম্ভাবনাকে বাড়িয়ে তোলে। যথা :
—প্রথমত, বিপাকক্রিয়া কম হওয়া।
—দ্বিতীয়ত, উচ্চ শ্বাসনিক অনুপাত অর্থাত্ অধিক শর্করা জাতীয় খাদ্যের বিপাক।
—তৃতীয়ত, ইনসুলিন হরমোন, যা ডায়াবেটিস হতে বাধা দেয়, তার কার্যক্ষমতা হ্রাস।

রোগের ঝুঁকি
মেদবহুলতার সঙ্গে যেসব রোগের ঝুঁকি রয়েছে তা হলো—ডায়াবেটিস, হৃদরোগ, ক্যান্সার, স্ট্রোক, পিত্তথলির রোগ, বাত ও চর্মরোগ, হার্নিয়া, স্ট্রেস ইনকন্টিনেন্স, বন্ধ্যত্ব, শ্বাসতন্ত্রের রোগ।
চিকিত্সকের পরামর্শে ওজন কমানোর ওষুধ খেলে ফল পাওয়া যায়। বর্তমানে অরলিস্টেট উপাদানে তৈরি এক প্রকার ওষুধ চর্বি পরিপাক ও শোষণে বাধার সৃষ্টি করে চর্বিকে রক্তে শোষিত হতে দেয় না। এর পাশাপাশি এ ওষুধ কোলস্টেরল, ট্রাইগ্লিসারাইড ও ডায়াবেটিস নিয়ন্ত্রণেও সহায়ক। এছাড়া লাইপোসাকশন ও লাইপোলাইসিস নামে সার্জারিও করা যায়। লাইপোসাকশনে নলের মাধ্যমে চর্বি গলিয়ে দেহের বাইরে আনা হয়। লাইপোলাইসিসে আলোর তরঙ্গদৈর্ঘ্যের পরিবর্তন ঘটিয়ে (লেজার থেরাপি) দেহের বাড়তি চর্বি কমিয়ে আনা যায়। এ প্রক্রিয়ায় কোন কাটাছেঁড়ার প্রয়োজন হয় না এবং রক্তক্ষরণও হয় না।

STROKE স্ট্রোকঃ মনে রাখুন শব্দটির প্রথম ৩টি অক্ষরঃ S, T এবং R :

 

 

ছবিটি শেয়ার করে হয়তো আপনিও কারো জীবন বাঁচাতে পারবেন।

STROKE স্ট্রোকঃ মনে রাখুন শব্দটির প্রথম ৩টি অক্ষরঃ S, T এবং R

আমার বন্ধু আমাকে এই ছবিটি পাঠিয়েছে এবং আমাকে এই কথাগুলো ছড়িয়ে দেয়ার জন্য উৎসাহ যুগিয়েছে। আমরা সবাই-ই যদি এই ছোট্ট সাধারণ সণাক্তকরণ উপায়টা শিখে ফেলি, তবে হয়তো আমরা স্ট্রোকের ভয়ংকর অভিজ্ঞতা থেকে আমাদের প্রিয়জনদের রক্ষা করতে পারবো।

একটি সত্যি গল্পঃ

একটা অনুষ্ঠানে গিয়ে একজন ভদ্রমহিলা হঠাৎ হোঁচট খেয়ে পড়ে গেলেন। উঠে দাঁড়িয়ে তিনি বললেন, সবকিছু ঠিক আছে, মেঝের টাইলসে তার নতুন জুতোর হীল বেঁধে যাওয়ায় তিনি পড়ে গিয়েছিলেন। কেউ একজন এম্বুলেন্স ডাকার কথা বললেও তিনি তাতে রাজি হলেন না।

সবকিছু ঠিকঠাক করে, পরিস্কার করে তিনি নতুন করে প্লেটে খাবার নিলেন। যদিও মনে হচ্ছিলো যেন তিনি একটু কেঁপে কেঁপে উঠছেন। অনুষ্ঠানের সম্পূর্ণ সময় জুড়েই তিনি উপস্থিত থাকলেন। পরদিন দুপুরে ভদ্রমহিলার স্বামী ফোন করে জানালেন, তাকে হাসপাতালে নিয়ে যাওয়া হয়েছে। সন্ধ্যা ছয়টার সময় তিনি মারা গেলেন।

মূল যে ঘটনা ঘটেছিল, তা হলো, তিনি অনুষ্ঠান চলাকালীন সময় স্ট্রোক করেছিলেন। সেখানে যদি কেউ জানতেন, কিভাবে স্ট্রোক সনাক্ত করা সম্ভব, তাহলে হয়তো ভদ্রমহিলা আজও বেঁচে থাকতেন।

সবাই যে মৃত্যুবরণ করে, তা নয়। অনেকের ঠাঁই হয় বিছানায়, সাহায্যহীন, ভরসাহীন মূমুর্ষূ অবস্থায়। মাত্র তিনটা মিনিট সময় নিয়ে এটা পড়ে ফেলুন।

একজন মস্তিষ্কবিশেষজ্ঞ বলেছেন, যদি একজন স্ট্রোকের শিকার রোগীকে স্ট্রোক হবার তিন ঘন্টার মধ্যে হাসপাতালে নেয়া যায়, তবে তাকে সম্পূর্ণভাবে সুস্থ অবস্থায় ফেরত পাওয়া সম্ভব। শুধু আমাদের জানতে হবে কিভাবে স্ট্রোক চেনা যায়, এবং কিভাবে রোগীকে উল্লেখ্য সময়ের মধ্যে মেডিকেল কেয়ারে নেয়া যায়।

স্ট্রোককে চিনুন...

সহজ তিনটি ধাপঃ- S T ও R...পড়ুন এবং জানুন!

মাঝে মাঝে স্ট্রোকের উপসর্গ সনাক্ত করা অনেক কঠিন হয়ে পড়ে। আমাদের অজ্ঞতার কারণেই নেমে আসে যাবতীয় দুর্যোগ। স্ট্রোকের শিকার রোগীর মস্তিষ্কে যখন ভয়ানক রকম ক্ষতি হয়ে যাচ্ছে, পাশে দাঁড়ানো প্রিয়জনটিই হয়তো বুঝতে পারছে না, কি অপেক্ষা করছে তাদের কাছের মানুষের জীবনে।

সহজ উপায়ে স্ট্রোক সনাক্ত করার উপায়, সহজ তিনটি প্রশ্ন জিজ্ঞেস করুনঃ

S – Smile রোগীকে হাসতে বলুন।

T – Talk রোগীকে আপনার সাথে সাথে একটি বাক্য বলতে বলুন। উদাহরণঃ আজকের দিনটা অনেক সুন্দর।

R – Raise hands. রোগীকে একসাথে দুইহাত উপরে তুলতে বলুন।

এর কোনো একটিতে যদি রোগীর সমস্যা বা কষ্ট হয়, তৎক্ষণাৎ দেরি না করে তাকে হাসপাতালে নিয়ে যান। এবং চিকিৎসককে সমস্যাটি খুলে বলুন। (রোগী বলতে স্ট্রোকের শিকার সন্দেহ করা ব্যক্তি বোঝানো হয়েছে)

সনাক্তকরণের আরেকটি উপায় হচ্ছে, রোগীকে বলুন তার জিহবা বের করতে। যদি তা ভাঁজ হয়ে থাকে, বা অথবা যদি তা বেঁকে যেকোনো একদিকে চলে যায়, সেটাও স্ট্রোকের লক্ষণ। তৎক্ষণাৎ তাকে হাসপাতালে নিয়ে যান।

একজন খ্যাতনামা হৃদবিশেষজ্ঞ বলেছেন, যদি আমরা সবাই-ই এই সহজ ব্যাপারগুলো জেনে রাখি, তবে আমরা একজনের হলেও জীবন বাঁচাতে পারবো।

সুতরাং, আপনি শিখলেন, আপনার বন্ধু ও প্রিয়জনদেরও শেখান!!!

TEN TIPS To Healthy Eating And Physical Activity for You:

1. Start your day with breakfast.
   Breakfast fills your "empty tank" to get you going after a long night without food. And it can help you do better in school. Easy to prepare breakfasts include cold cereal with fruit and low-fat milk, whole-wheat toast with peanut butter, yogurt with fruit, whole-grain waffles or even last night's pizza!
   
   
2. Get Moving!
   It's easy to fit physical activities into your daily routine. Walk, bike or jog to see friends. Take a 10-minute activity break every hour while you read, do homework or watch TV. Climb stairs instead of taking an escalator or elevator. Try to do these things for a total of 30 minutes every day.
   
   
3. Snack smart.
   Snacks are a great way to refuel. Choose snacks from different food groups - a glass of low-fat milk and a few graham crackers, an apple or celery sticks with peanut butter and raisins, or some dry cereal. If you eat smart at other meals, cookies, chips and candy are OK for occasional snacking.
   
   
4. Work up a sweat.
   Vigorous work-outs - when you're breathing hard and sweating - help your heart pump better, give you more energy and help you look and feel best. Start with a warm-up that stretches your muscles. Include 20 minutes of aerobic activity, such as running, jogging, or dancing. Follow-up with activities that help make you stronger such as push-ups or lifting weights. Then cool-down with more stretching and deep breathing.
   
   
5. Balance your food choices - don't eat too much of any one thing.
   You don't have to give up foods like hamburgers, french fries and ice cream to eat healthy. You just have to be smart about how often and how much of them you eat. Your body needs nutrients like protein, carbohydrates, fat and many different vitamins and minerals such as vitamins C and A, iron and calcium from a variety of foods. Balancing food choices from the Food Guide Pyramid and checking out the Nutrition Facts Panel on food labels will help you get all these nutrients.
   
   
6. Get fit with friends or family.
   Being active is much more fun with friends or family. Encourage others to join you and plan one special physical activity event, like a bike ride or hiking, with a group each week.
   
   
7. Eat more grains, fruits and vegetables.
   These foods give you carbohydrates for energy, plus vitamins, minerals and fiber. Besides, they taste good! Try breads such as whole-wheat, bagels and pita. Spaghetti and oatmeal are also in the grain group.
   Bananas, strawberries and melons are some great tasting fruits. Try vegetables raw, on a sandwich or salad.
   
   
8. Join in physical activities at school.
   Whether you take a physical education class or do other physical activities at school, such as intramural sports, structures activities are a sure way to feel good, look good and stay physically fit.
   
   
9. Foods aren't good or bad.
   A healthy eating style is like a puzzle with many parts. Each part -- or food -- is different. Some foods may have more fat, sugar or salt while others may have more vitamins or fiber. There is a place for all these foods. What makes a diet good or bad is how foods fit together. Balancing your choices is important. Fit in a higher-fat food, like pepperoni pizza, at dinner by choosing lower-fat foods at other meals. And don't forget about moderation. If two pieces of pizza fill you up, you don't need a third.
   
   
10. Make healthy eating and physical activities fun!
    Take advantage of physical activities you and your friends enjoy doing together and eat the foods you like. Be adventurous - try new sports, games and other activities as well as new foods. You'll grow stronger, play longer, and look and feel better! Set realistic goals - don't try changing too much at once.

Stroke: Consequence, its management and precaution of Stroke

From a Chinese Professor

Keep a syringe or needle in your home to do this... It's amazing  and an unconventional way of recovering from stroke, read it through - it can help somebody one day.

My father was paralyzed and later died from the result of a stroke.  I wish I knew about this first aid before.
When stroke strikes, the capillaries in the brain will gradually burst. (Irene Liu)
When a stroke occurs, stay calm.

No matter where the victim is, do not move him/her. Because, if moved, the capillaries will burst.

Help the victim to sit up where he/she is to prevent him/her from falling over again and then the blood letting can begin.

If you have in your home an injection syringe that would be the best.

Otherwise, a sewing needle or a straight pin will do.

1.     Place the needle/pin over fire to sterilize it and then use it to prick the tip of all ......10 fingers.
2.     There are no specific acupuncture points, just prick about an mm from the fingernail.
3.     Prick till blood comes out.
4.     If blood does not start to drip, then squeeze with your fingers.
5.     When all 10 digits is bleeding, wait a few minutes then the victim will regain consciousness.

6.     If the victim's mouth is crooked, then pull on his ears until they are red.
7.     Then prick each earlobe twice until two drops of blood comes from each earlobe.
 After a few minutes the victim should regain consciousness.

Wait till the victim regains his normal state without any abnormal symptoms then take him to the hospital.
Otherwise, if he was taken in the ambulance in a hurry to the hospital, the bumpy trip will cause all the capillaries in his brain to burst.

If he could save his life, barely managing to walk, then it is by the grace of his ancestors.
'I learned about letting blood to save life from Chinese traditional doctor, Ha Bu Ting, who lives in Sun Juke.

Furthermore, I had practical experience with it. Therefore, I can say this method is 100% effective.
In 1979, I was teaching in Fung Gaap College in Tai Chung.

One afternoon, I was teaching a class when another teacher came running to my classroom and said in panting,
'Ms Liu, come quick, our supervisor has had a stroke!’ I immediately went to the 3rd floor.
When I saw our supervisor, Mr. Chen Fu Tien, his colour was off, his speech was slurred, his mouth was crooked - all the symptoms of a stroke.

I immediately asked one of the practicum students to go to the pharmacy outside the school to buy a syringe, which I used to prick Mr. Chen's 10 fingers tips.

When all 10 fingers were bleeding (each with a pea-sized drop of blood), after a few minutes, Mr. Chen’s face regained its colour and his eyes' spirit returned,

But his mouth was still crooked. So I pulled on his ears to fill them with blood.
When his ears became red,
I pricked his right earlobe twice to let out two drops of blood.
When both earlobes had two drops of blood each, a miracle happened.
Within 3-5 minutes the shape of his mouth returned to normal and his speech became clear.
We let him rest for a while and have a cup of hot tea, then we helped him go down the stairs, drove him to Wei Wahl Hospital. He rested one night and was released the next day to return to school to teach.. Everything worked normally.
There were no ill after effects.
On the other hand, the usual stroke victim usually suffers Irreparable bursting of the brain capillaries on the way to the hospital.
As a result, these victims never recover.' (Irene Liu)
Therefore, stroke is the second cause of death.
The lucky ones will stay alive but can remain paralyzed for life.

It is such a horrible thing to happen in one’s life.

If we can all remember this blood letting method and start the life saving process immediately, in a short time, the victim will be revived and regain 100% normality.
