Did you know what “Foot Spa” or “Ashiyu” in Japanese is? Just soak your feet in a shallow hot spring. If your feet become warm, then your whole body will feel warm, too. You will be relaxed just like you are taking a bath in a hot spring.
Foot Spa was originated and translated from a Japanese legend occurred about 1,600 years ago. It was narrated by a group of sickly people and monks who made pilgrimage. One evening, in a deep mountain, the group looked around to find a place to rest their exhausted body. They saw a hot spring streaming out of the rock where they decided to make their shanty for the night. Before going to sleep, they placed their feet to the hot stream to relieve their fatigue. When they woke up the next morning, they noticed that they felt healthier than ever before. The group completed their journey of pilgrimage, and they were informed by their physicians that their illnesses were gone.
This occurrence of miraculous healing power spread around from villages to villages. Thousands of people followed the same route of pilgrimage, and some doctors and renowned physicians found that foot spa has something to do with healing.
Modern Foot Spa
Today, we know the healing power of foot spa with different kinds of mineral contents in hot springs. Or with modern foot spa equipped with electronics device such as an ion producer and adding herbs in it, are sold.
However, none of Japanese manufacturers claim that it can do detoxification through feet. They just claim that it can help in rejuvenating your health, removing fatigue and other stress-oriented illnesses (e.g. neuralgia, rheumatism, lumbago, poor blood circulation, hemorrhoids, fatigue, dry skin, bruise, frostbite, chapped hand, miliaria (heat rash), allergies, pimples, migraine, insomnia, headaches, sinusitis, stiff neck and shoulders, sport injuries).
The recommended temperature is 40-42 °C, and time duration of about 10-25 minutes per treatment. You can do it many times as you desire.
The Truth on Foot Detox
Is foot detox really true? Actually, there is no definite medical proof about foot detox. Our own research also indicates either “Yes” or “No”. Whatever the results of our researches, it is true that foot detox with minerals or herbs or electrodes added, will help in relieving fatigue and stress, and energize the body system, leading you to good health.
Also, our own research indicated that foot detox does not clean your body’s wastes or toxic wastes as others claim. The public may be swayed by the water “miraculously” turning brown or black in color. However, it’s proven that the changes in color are caused basically by the “electrolysis” of water.
And most of them claim that foot detox machines:
1. Enhance body detoxification – UNCERTAIN
2. Deactivate viruses, bacteria, yeast, and fungus – UNCERTAIN.
3. Reduce pain – YES (muscle or lymph-oriented pain only)
4. Purify the blood and lymph – NO (it helps in circulating them)
5. Stimulate the immune system – NO
6. Promote weight loss – YES and NO
7. Relieve tension – YES
8. Reduce inflammation – Depends on the sickness
9. Toxic matters and toxic fats can be detoxicated – NO
10. Improve oxygen levels in the body – YES and NO
11. Balances negative ions in the body – NO
12. Liver, kidney and parasite cleaning – NO
13. Removes wrinkles, acne and other skin problems – YES and NO
To make foot spa more effective, placing natural herbs or additives you probably have in your kitchen can help a lot. These herbs and additives help you prevent getting hundreds of illnesses, too:
1. Leaves of pine tree – boil about 5 minutes
2. Green tea
3. Dried skin of citrus fruits
4. Grinded garlic, ginger, and hot pepper
5. Bamboo leaves
6. Dried radish or carrot leaves
7. Corn silk or maize
8. Citrus skin
There are hundreds of additives known since hundreds of years ago in Japan. However, the above noted are the well-known additives for general use. All of them are good for treating skin allergies, dry and oily skin, fatigue, stress, insomnia, asthma, headache, rheumatism, arthritis, common cold and many others according to ancient books.
Now, you understand that foot spa is good in revitalizing or rejuvenating your health especially when herbs or some medicinal properties are added to the water.
If you are traveling to several hot springs, it contains minerals which are usually specified in the guidebooks of travel agents.
History tells its effectiveness. Why don’t you try it? Oh, it is more recommendable to use wooden pail rather than metallic or plastic ones. According to the wisdom of our ancestors, “wooden pail” has the power to heal your sickness.
Foot Reflexology
We have other information that “foot reflexology”, an ancient natural therapy which utilizes energy zones on the feet, can provide relief for variety of illnesses as well as energize the body system. According to a Chinese acupuncture theory, there are reflex areas in the feet which correspond to all parts of the body and these areas are arranged in such a way to form a map of the body.
Foot reflexologies such as acupuncture and moxibustion have been practiced since 4,500 years ago in China, Egypt, Korea, and Japan. Now it became very popular in many parts of the world including Europe and USA.

Be alert to the hidden health threat. Most internal parasites, commonly called worms, live in a cats intestines where they feed and reproduce. All kittens should be examined by a veterinarian for internal parasites. Your veterinarian can detect the presence of most worms by examining your kittens feces.
Some parasites, such as hookworms and roundworms, can be transmitted from the mother to her kittens before birth or during nursing. Hookworms are among the most dangerous of all internal parasites, especially in kittens who can be infected from their mother during nursing. Hookworms attach themselves to the intestinal wall and suck blood, causing severe anemia which can be fatal. Kittens with a heavy hookworm infection can die from blood loss within a few weeks. Their presence is less severe in older cats, but may lead to chronic anemia. Regular fecal examinations for the presence of hookworms minimizes the risk of infection.
Roundworms are a common parasite among young kittens. They are infected by way of the placenta during birth. After birth, kittens can become infected by larvae in the mothers milk. In the small intestine, roundworms compete with the kitten for nutrients, resulting in stunted growth and poor health. Roundworms often make a kitten look potbellied. Other signs include diarrhea, poor coat, listlessness and poor growth.
Whipworms are passed in the feces and are difficult to eliminate. Generalized symptoms include weight loss, nervousness, diarrhea with blood and mucus, and dehydration. Treatment with anti-whipworm medication must be repeated at regular intervals until the cat is completely cleared of whipworms.
Tapeworms can be contracted by a kittens or cats swallowing tapeworm-carrying fleas, or by eating an infested rodent or raw fish or meat. The most common symptom is a ravenous appetite with no weight gain and, possibly, weight loss. Tapeworms are treated by medicine prescribed by a veterinarian.
Coccidia is a common parasite of cats, especially kittens. Eggs passed in the feces of infected animals become infective to other animals within one to several days, depending upon the temperature. The most common symptoms include diarrhea, abdominal pain, dehydration, weight and appetite loss. However, coccidia may present no symptoms. Veterinary diagnosis is made by examining the feces. Several effective medications are available, but the general health of the cat and the function of its immune system appear to be very important in preventing and treating coccidia.
Giardia is one of the most common parasites infecting cats. Young cats are more likely to have severe infections. Infections can be acquired by direct contact with fecal matter containing the parasites as well as from contaminated food and water. Symptoms can be intermittent or continuous and include foul-smelling feces which may contain mucus, loss of appetite and weight loss. Your veterinarian must perform fecal examinations by procedures designed to reveal this type of parasite. Once the diagnosis is established, specific treatment is available.

Doctors promote cleansing of the colon to promote good health. If the colon is not working right, toxins must leave the body through other avenues. Bad halitosis, body odor can be taken care of with colon cleansing. Doctors say that cleansing the colon cleanses every tissue and cell in the human body. Toxic matter in the colon can cause colon diseases, headaches, fatigue, muscle aches, lupus, and cardiovascular disease. Cleansing the colon can also get rid of unwanted parasites that our bodies might be harboring. These parasites can come from insect bites, rare meat, vegetables not cleaned properly, and pets and even through sexual activity. In fact, it’s more common to pass on parasites than it is to pass on a venereal disease.
Our body is designed for the bowels to move after every meal. In our western civilization, that is hard to do so we have trained our body to once a day. When our colons become backed up then serious problems can develop. A toxic colon can lead to food intolerance and becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. Even though you may have regular bowel movements, the waste can pass through the colon and still leave accumulated residue on the walls behind it. A dirty colon can cause the muscles of the colon wall to lose tone, and ballooning or pouches can form causing diverticulosis. Food is trapped in these pouches and become breeding grounds for bacteria.
If you have any of the following symptoms, you may well benefit from colon cleansing. Depression, cold hands or feet, chronic fatigue, endometriosis, circulation problems, memory loss, low sex drive, gas, insomnia, irritability, allergies, body odor and bad breath. Brittle nails and hair, blood pressure, memory loss and inability to concentrate are also a few more symptoms of colon toxins.
How do you clean out the colon? There are several different ways, some that will do it quickly and some gradually. There is even colonic irrigation that is very quick and an efficient way to wash away years of impacted feces and toxins.
A more gradual process will do the same thing, but you will begin to see improvements within a short time after starting the process. Skin problems disappear, chronic fatigue is alleviated, and the whites of the eyes regain their youthful clearness. The gradual process takes a period of several weeks, with the patient starting out eating raw food as 50 percent of their diet. By adding two teaspoonfuls of Metamucil or Citrucel and drinking a lot of water can get you started on your colon cleansing. Water is an important part of the cleansing. Some people believe they shouldn’t drink a lot of water because they tend to retain fluids. The opposite is true. The body retains the fluids because it isn’t getting enough fluid and tries to hang on to what it gets. The recommendation is to drink two quarts of water a day and start the day with at least a pint of hot water before breakfast.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome can be helped with a colon cleansing. I can personally attest to that, as I was required to do a bowel cleansing before having a colonoscopy. I had suffered for years with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, I was terrified to eat at fairs or street festivals, or eat and then get right in a car to travel. After going through three days of fasting and laxatives and foul tasting stuff to drink, I had my test. Nothing was found, but the result was that I felt wonderful and had no Irritable Bowel Attacks for over three years after I had my test. I’m not saying it was a pleasant experience to go through as it wasn’t the gradual process described above, but it did leave me feeling great and totally rejuvenated.
There are supplements available that are designed specifically for colon cleansing. These come in capsule form and are not too expensive. They can be found at any drugstore or natural food store.
It’s been said that a positive effect of colon cleansing is a positive feeling and becoming extremely energetic. Reducing the toxins and the breeding ground for germs also can result in a dramatic increasing in immunity from any type of infection.

Recently I just fell upon detoxing on the internet.
I’m really looking to do a full body detox for all the health benefits, because I REALLY believe my body needs it considering all the symptoms that I have for just a parasite detox alone.
I wanted to do this:
Parasite Cleanse
Kidney Cleanse
Colon Cleanse
Liver Cleanse
I found a kit on ebay that is priced at $60 for a full body detox, but I’m unsure if that is too much.
Could you possibly give me some general prices that you have spent on your detoxes, whether it be just one or all of them, and a list of the ingredients you purchased.
For the parasite detox, it’s generally black wallnut husk, wormwood, and cloves, but i want to see what you have purchased other detoxes.
This would be my first time so I’m trying to go for a decent deal without having to hastle in purchasing all the sorts of capsuls & herbs if I can avoid it by buying a kit.
I’m trying to do this to clean my body out, not just "diet" like many of you may think.
I wouldn’t have asked this if I wanted to go on a diet.
You shouldn’t spend anything on detoxing. Its not a healthy way to cleanse the body. If you really want to do something good for yourself, eat healthy, balanced meals/snacks, and exercise 30 minutes per day.
I know this sounds kinda gross but I really am curious as to how to cure someone of these pesky parasites. Thank you for your help…
There are numerous types of tapeworms, each coming from different sources (poorly cooked pork, fish, fleas from dogs/cats). Depending upon the type of tapeworm you have, the treatment is different. If you are passing a tapeworm when you have a bowel movement, you should attempt to save a portion of the worm and have your physician send it to a lab to be tested and identified. After this is done, you can receive the appropriate treatment.
No matter what type of tapeworm, the treatment is an anti-parasitic drug. The type of drug depends upon the tapeworm. Hope this helps.
I just received a paper on unhealthy colons. That doctors finally discovered the real cause of 90% of all diseases. It is unhealthy colons. The Natural Medicine Association have come up with a cure and to get rid of the parasites that may and are living in our colons. The program they have is so costly at the start of $69.95.
I was wondering if there is anyone out there who knows a cheaper way to cleanse the human body of parasites?
The symptoms are…
Constipation or diarrhea, chronic yeast infections, chronic fungus on hand/toe nails or nails become brittle or lost their luster.
Getting sick or catching colds often, weight problems or rapid weight gain, acne, skin disorders,or skin dry or pal, mood swings or depression, premenstrual syndrome more intensified, low sex drive, lack of concentration, short term memory problems ,sleeping problems, being easily prone to diseases, frequent headaches, chronic urinary tract irritation/infections, arthritic bone pains,allergies,gas,ex….
Why don’t someone just put dewormer for humans on the market? They found it simple to for animals..why not humans?
There is a colon detoxification program called Colonix that I have been using for the past three months. It’s a three-part program, part of which focuses on the removal of intestinal parasites. That part of the program is called Paranil, and it consists of four capsules a day, followed by a large glass of water. It’s a proprietary herbal blend, containing things like garlic, black walnut hulls, and tons of other things.
Although the entire program costs $88.00 for a one month supply, the Paranil is sold seperately for $32.00 a bottle (and it’s even cheaper if you buy three at a time.)
http://www.drnatura.com
There are lots of other herbal parasite programs out there; you might check GNC or health food/vitamin stores to compare prices. The reason I suggested Paranil is because I’ve taken it myself, and the website has literally hundreds of positive verifiable testimonials. It’s worth a look, anyway… as I said, I’ve been on the whole program for three months and I’m very impressed with it.
Common colon parasites that may find its way into the body and infest the intestines are flukes, tapeworms, and roundworms. These parasites, if not rightfully controlled, could bring about chronic diseases. This is very the reason why regular colon cleansing of parasites is essential.
There are a lot of ways to cleanse your colon. There are herbal supplements to do just the job. These herbs are effective enough so adapt it as a method to getting rid of these unwanted organisms.
Colon cleansing of parasites could be a long and tedious process. The parasites in your digestive tract won’t go the moment you take in the herbal supplements. Most of the time, removing all of them needs therapy. You have to follow a certain treatment program in order for you to fully cleanse your intestines.
And that treatment can go for months, depending upon the type of medicines you take. Colon cleansing of parasites through herbal supplements may run for a maximum of three months before you can achieve full cleansing.
The disturbing fact behind parasites is this: a single parasite has the ability to lay more than 10,000 eggs in one go. So if your treatment program is not thorough, the vicious cycle will just repeat again and again. It is imperative that you select a highly efficient colon cleansing of parasites method that would leave not a single one of them in your body.
There are three most commonly used herbs to get rid of such organisms. These herbs are wormwood, common sloves, and black walnut hull. Wormwood is a known tonic and it aids in improving the stomach’s functions and normalizing one’s appetite. Black walnut hull and common sloves are two herbs usually used to expel different types of intestinal worms. So when you buy colon cleansing of parasites medicines, check these three herbs in the ingredient list.
Colon cleansing of parasites should be done immediately if abdominal pains becomes rampant, as these are symptoms of the presence of roundworms in the body. And aside from that, roundworms are also known to cause dry hair and skin, acnes, rashes, and other skin problems. And in worst cases, it may even cause death.
Regular colon cleansing of parasites is very essential. Parasites can be difficult to detect, more so to eliminate, especially if you don’t have the right treatment for it. So to live And so to live your life healthier and fuller, make regular colon cleansing of parasites part of your health routine.

Amebiasis – Causes, Symptoms and Treatment
Definition
Amoebiasis is an infection of the large intestine caused by a protozoan , or we can say is an intestinal disease caused by an unicelled organism very tiny in size to be seen by the unaided eye but large enough to be studied under a microscope. There are number of species of amoebae can exist as parasites inside the human intestines, but only one is known to result a disease called- E. histolytica. It is one of the waterborne diseases , generally contracted by consuming water or food polluted by amoebic cysts .Amoebiasis most commonly occurs in between young to middle-aged persons.
Amoebiasis can be travel from hand-to-mouth contact with surfaces or objects contaminated with stool from an infected person.The parasite can adulterate fruits and vegetables grown in areas where human feces is used as fertilizer.About1,000 cases are reported each year in New York State caused by Amebiasis.
Causes
Amebiasis is most generally existing in tropical and subtropical countries where standards of public hygiene and sanitation may be low. Amebiasis is occurred by protozoa, is common causes of diarrhea in travelers.The infection can also spread via the blood to the liver and rarely, to the lungs, brain or other organs.
The risk for happening amebiasis infection is greatest for those who reside in or visit rural areas, spend time in back country areas, or eat or drink in settings of poor sanitation.It occurs most generally by eating or drinking contaminated food or water.
Entamoeba histolytica live a life in two ways:
- Trophozoite is an operative parasite.It may not be lived out side the body.
- Cyst is a inactive parasite.It may be lived out side the body.
Infection starts when cysts are inhaled. The cysts hatch, releasing trophozoites that multiply,leads to ulcers on the lining of the intestine, and cause diarrhea.Cyst’s can be contaminated directly from person to person or indirectly through food or water.
Symptoms
When amoebas moved to the liver and result liver abscess, problems can include vomiting,fever, nausea,abdominal pain , weight loss and an enlarged liver .There may complaint of pain in the upper right portion of the abdomen that starts gradually, with frequent loose or watery bowel movements.
There may be possibility for a person to develop symptoms of an amoebic liver abscess without ever having had the diarrhea typical of infection.
Symptoms take generally few weeks to multiply and observable themselves .There may be some symptoms occurred with amebiasis which lead to fever, chills, and diarrhea that retains blood or mucus. This is known as dysentery , and can lead to disorders such as dehydration .
There are some related causes including diarrhea , vomiting , abdominal pain or discomfort and fever .
Infections that sometimes exist for years may be attended by vague gastrointestinal distress & dysentery with blood and mucus.
Treatments
Amoebas generally occurs from contaminate food and water.So never eat uncooked foods without peeling them first. In high-risk areas, avoid food that can’t be cooked or peeled.
By boiling the water for at least 5 to 10 minutes or by drinking bottled water. Because amoebas may also contaminate the outside skins of fresh fruits & vegetables
An anti microbial medication is one of the treatment that generally cure amebiasis. All children with E. histolytica in their fecal matters should be cured with oral antimicrobial medications .
Oral rehydration solution-ORS should be use to prevent dehydration.It is used to provide a substitute for lost body fluids, especially if the diarrhea has been going on for longer than 2 or 3 days.
In case of amebic dysentery:
- Metronidazole should be use as a remedy by taking 800 mg three times in a day upto 5 days
- Tinidazole is also used as an alternative to metronidazole by using 2 gm once in a day up to 3 days .
- Diloxanide furoate is also effective when using 500 mg three times in a day up to 10 days.
In case amebic liver abscess:
- Metronidazole should be use as a treatment when using 400 mg three times in a day upto 10 days.
- Tinidazole is also used as an alternative to metronidazole by using 2 gm once in a day up to 6 days.
- Diloxanide furoate is also effective when using 500 mg three times in a day for 10 days .
Careful selection of food and drink and attention to hygiene are recommended to ebb the risk of infection.

Okay, so here is one of the topics of cat care that no one likes to talk about, but still needs to be covered, internal parasites. There are many different types of internal parasites that could potentially cause medical problems in your cat, some of the more common being hookworms, roundworms, coccidiosis, toxoplasmosis, and tape worms.
Even if you have had your cat wormed, she could still get roundworms or hookworms. What is even worse, your cat can pass these parasites on to her kittens. These nasty little bugs can cause diarrhea or other types of symptoms in a kitten, but most of the time they leave no trace that a kitten is infested. If you have children in the home, these little kittens can pass these worms onto them, which is one reason why it is so important to have new kittens seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible. Your vet will likely send you home with a prescription worm medication for the mother cat and the kittens, just in case. Laboratory tests are not one hundred percent accurate in detecting this type of parasite, particularly in young kittens, so it is better to treat them all, just to be on the safe side.
Another silent internal parasite that often preys on tiny kittens is coccidian, which like to party in the kittens intestinal lining, often causing no noticeable symptoms at all, and luckily, no harm to the kitten or anyone else in the family. In some cases, your kitten may have diarrhea, but usually the vet will not prescribe any medication, and will let nature handle the problem.
Just about every woman who has even been pregnant before knows or has heard about cats and toxoplasmosis, as it can be extremely dangerous for anyone who comes into contact with infected litter, particularly a pregnant woman. Your cat can suffer from this deadly parasite at any age, and since it can also be passed to humans, it is extremely important that any pregnant woman avoid changing a litter box or coming in contact with cat litter boxes. These organisms can cause severe birth defects and other problems for an unborn child.
If at all possible, a pregnant woman who owns a house cat should have someone else empty and clean the cat litter box for her. If this is not possible, then extra care must be taken when the litter box must be changed and cleaned. Using disposable gloves to avoid skin contact with contaminated particles along with a dust mask to protect against inhaling airborne contaminants may reduce the risk; however it is well advised that a pregnant woman never change a litter box. Having your cat stay with a family member until after the baby is born is another way to help protect the unborn child.
Cats are exposed to toxoplasmosis when they eat any type of raw meat, whether it is from a rodent they have caught or from raw butcher scraps. These raw scraps could be from any type of meat, so it is best to avoid all table scraps for your kitty.
Your cat should be seen regularly by a veterinarian for health checkups. It should be noted however that you are the first line of defense for your beloved cat, and by reporting any changes in your cat’s behavior, you may catch an infestation before it becomes life threatening for your kitty.

Symptoms of AIDS
Depression is one of the first symptoms of Aids, and of course, can be mistaken for the regular blahs or a temporary mood. However, depression is more profound than sadness and includes lethargy and a lack of interest in activities that were once enjoyable.
Diarrhea thrush or a bad taste in one’s mouth and a white coating on the tongue or the gums, these problems occur because the body is no longer able to fight off minor infections and the patient is more vulnerable to microbes.
Rapid weight loss and lip dystrophy are symptoms of aids that affect the proper distribution of body fats. One’s arms may be bony while there may be buildups of fat on the stomach or behind the neck. This happens because the HIV virus attacks the mitochondria, or the cells which digest fats.
Patients with AIDS have had their immune system depleted by HIV and are very susceptible to such opportunistic infections. Common symptoms are fevers, sweats (particularly at night), swollen glands, chills, weakness, and weight loss.
The symptoms of AIDS are primarily the result of infections that do not normally develop in individuals with healthy immune systems. These are called opportunistic infections.
Respiratory Symptoms – Some of the most serious symptoms of HIV involve the respiratory system. Symptoms associated with breathing and respiration usually occur later in course of the disease. Unfortunately, many people’s first symptom of HIV involves the respiratory system, illustrating why HIV testing is so important. Any cough or shortness of breath could be a sign of bacterial pneumonia or pneumocystis.
AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome: AIDS is caused by a virus called HIV, the Human Immunodeficiency Virus. If you get infected with HIV, your body will try to fight the infection. It will make “antibodies,” special molecules to fight HIV. Many people are HIV-positive but don’t get sick for many years. As HIV disease continues, it slowly wears down the immune system. Viruses, parasites, fungi and bacteria that usually don’t cause any problems can make you very sick if your immune system is damaged. The virus, which is transmitted from one individual to another through the exchange of body fluids (such as blood or semen), attacks white blood cells, thereby causing the body to lose its capacity to ward off infection. As a result, many AIDS patients die of opportunistic infections that strike their debilitated bodies.
Treatment of AIDS
Antiretroviral treatment for HIV infection consists of drugs which work against HIV infection itself by slowing down the replication of HIV in the body. For antiretroviral treatment to be effective for a long time, it has been found that you need to take more than one antiretroviral drug at a time. This is what is known as Combination Therapy. The term Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy (HAART) is used to describe a combination of three or more anti-HIV drugs. This has been highly beneficial to many HIV-infected individuals since its introduction in 1996 when the protease inhibitor-based HAART initially became available. Current optimal HAART options consist of combinations (or “cocktails”) consisting of at least three drugs belonging to at least two types, or “classes,” of antiretroviral agents.
Prevention are based on avoiding exposure to the virus or, failing that, an antiretroviral treatment directly after a highly significant exposure, called post-exposure prophylaxis PEP has a very demanding four week schedule of dosage. It also has very unpleasant side effects including diarrhea, malaise, nausea and fatigue.
