2024 Ep10 Food for Healthier Liver and Gall Blader

Hello! Welcome to the “You are your best healer podcast”

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and advanced Metatronic energy healer.

In today’s episode, we will discuss the topic of the therapeutic diet for the Liver and Gall Bladder organ, which is mainly referencing master Jeffrey Yuen’s teaching.

The liver meridian and organ is classified as the wood element among the five elements. The wood element is associated with two organs in the body including the Liver and Gall-Bladder. The following body parts are classified as the wood element as well including: eyes, tendons, and ligaments.

If your lifestyle tends to be stressful, you may want to consider to take better care of your liver organ. It is important to go to bed before 11 PM, and try to do the following diet that is beneficial for your liver organ.

Try to eat various legumes. We differentiate legumes based on their color and size.

The small size of legumes can be useful to drain heat/inflammation from your liver meridian and liver organ, because they have the draining effect. small beans: peas, lentils, mung beans, aduki, black eye peas

They could help to drain heat/inflammation from your liver organ

Yellow lentils could help to drain the liver from invading the ST/SP. The black beans help to drain the kidneys and liver, to help support the function of the liver organ.

Ep 9 Food For Healthier Stomach and Spleen

Thursday, March 7, 2024 • Duration 07:56

Hello! Welcome to the “You are your best healer podcast”

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and advanced Metatronic energy healer.

Today’s episode about therapeutic diet for different organ imbalance is mainly references master Jeffrey Yuen’s teaching.

In the Chinese Medical diet, different categories of food could be beneficial to different organs. For example,

grains (SP/ST)
Legumes (LR)
Seeds (KD)
Vegetables (SP/ST)
Meat (SP/ST)
Fruits (LU)
Nuts (LU, KD)
Dairy (LU - KD)

According to Chinese Medicine, we often diagnose deficiency of which organs or excess of which organs. Since different organs are categorized into five elements, due to the generating and controlling cycle of five elements, these organs have corresponding relationships as well.

For example, if you have spleen deficiency, since Spleen is categorized as an earth element, we could nourish its mother fire element. According to the five elements generating cycle, the heart is the fire element organ. That means when the spleen is deficient, we can nourish the heart to strengthen the spleen as well.

If a person has spleen deficiency, the person should eat drying / nonsticky/gluten-free grains. There are grains with a warming nature, that tend to be sticky, gluten amino acids.

There are grains with a cold nature, which tend to be nonsticky, and non-gluten. For a person with spleen deficiency, you should have grains of a cold nature, nonsticky, non-gluten.

The stomach likes moist, but the spleen likes to be dry. Grains that are gluten, and sticky, are better for the stomach, but not for people who have spleen deficiency. If you have spleen deficiency, it is better to have gluten-free, non-sticky grains including rice, millet, Barcket, Coren, quinoa, bulgar, and semolina.

Ep 8 Emotional and Spiritual Healing

Thursday, February 29, 2024 • Duration 12:23

Hello! Welcome to the “You are your best healer podcast”

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and advanced Metatronic energy healer.

According to Classical Chinese Medicine, diseases could be caused by external pathogenic factors or internal pathogenic factors. In today’s episode, I would like to discuss about the internal pathogenic factors. What are internal pathogenic factors? Internal pathogenic factors are our thoughts and emotions that could cause us physical conditions. Different emotions could impact different physical organs and cause complications in the body.

Sadness could weaken the energy flow of lung meridians and consequently impact the proper functions of the lungs. Anger and stress could stagnate the energy flow of the liver and consequently, it could cause many complications in the body including headache, high blood pressure, insomnia, and others. Worries and overthinking could weaken the functions of the spleen and pancreas, which could lead to possible digestive issues and other complications. Fear could weaken the functions of the kidneys. Overly joy could weaken the functions of the heart.

It doesn't mean not to have emotions. We should have emotions but not be stuck in emotions. When things happen, we are sad and cry, then we let go and move on.
If we find ourselves being stuck in any emotional situations, please seek professional help. Either see a psychotherapist, get acupuncture treatments, or other energy healings. Classical acupuncture treatments or energy healings could help your healing even at the subconscious level and karmic level.

Blaming others and trying to figure out what others did wrong only keep you stuck in negative emotions. Instead, you may be better off focusing your energy and time on figuring out what life lessons the universe wants you to learn from it. what you may have done wrong, and what you could have done differently if you were given the opportunity again.

If you wonder why certain things happen to you, try to think about why we are on earth, and what is the meaning of our lives.
I believe all life experiences are lessons for our souls to grow spiritually. Therefore, I'm thankful for everyone and everything in my life. By doing so, we transform negative emotions and energy into positive energies. So we can be happy and healthy.

Ep7 Diet for Healthy Thyroid Functions

Wednesday, February 21, 2024 • Duration 09:20

Hello! Welcome to the “You are your best healer podcast”

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and advanced Metatronic energy healer.

The thyroid gland is part of our endocrine system. It is located at the front of the neck, below the larynx, or men’s Adam’s apple. It is comprised of two lobes on each side. The thyroid gland secretes hormones that regulate many metabolic processes in our body. It affects pretty much every organ in our body. It controls the heart, muscle, digestive function, brain development, and bone maintenance. It also has an impact on growth hormones, energy expenditure, the female reproductive system, CNS, autonomic nervous system, GI, and metabolism. Its proper functioning depends on a good supply of iodine from the diet.

When the thyroid gland doesn’t work properly, it could have two opposite conditions: hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism.

Common causes of thyroid dysfunction are iodine imbalance, stress, and autoimmune diseases when your immune system attacks your thyroid gland such as Graves’ disease, or Hashimoto’s disease.

Hypothyroidism is when the thyroid gland doesn’t produce enough thyroid hormones. If a person with mild low thyroid hormones, he or she may feel fine without any symptoms. The common symptoms are a puffy face, sluggishness, fatigue, weight gain, feeling cold, a slowed heart rate, constipation, low appetite, depression, and thinning hair or hair loss. According to Chinese medicine, hypothyroidism is caused by liver qi and blood deficiency, liver qi, or blood stagnation with mucus accumulation.

In terms of diet for hypothyroidism is to eat more sea vegetables, seaweeds, seafood with shells, bitter melons, tomatoes, apples, oranges, water chestnuts, and fish.

Try to avoid the following foods which could eliminate the absorption of iodines. They are mustard greens, Chinese cauliflower, radish, cabbage, and soybeans.

Hyperthyroidism is when the thyroid gland is overactive and produces more hormones than the body needs, which increases your metabolic rate, and your body uses energy too quickly. It can cause your heart to beat faster, palpitate, and cause anxiety and irritability. Although you eat more, you still lose weight without trying. Your thyroid gland could be swelling, you may have bulging eyeballs. Females may also experience reduced menstrual blood flow. Men could experience impotence. According to Chinese Medicine, we believe hyperthyroidism is usually caused by liver fire rising from stress or yin deficiency causing fire rising. Yin deficiency usually means dehydration, insufficiency of body fluid, and insufficiency of blood or hormones.

Ep 6 How to Make 2024 a Great Year For You!

Wednesday, February 14, 2024 • Duration 12:21

2024 Ep6 0213 Lunar New Year
Hello! Welcome to the “You are your best healer podcast”

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and advanced mechatronic energy healer.

A Buddhist priest used the energy of qian gua 乾卦 (the most divine yang symbol) from the Book of Change 《易經》, to describe the energy of 2024, and advise us on what to do to best utilize the energy of 2024 in our favor.

The Book of Change is a very famous philosophical book in China. It is a book allowing people to learn and master the universal laws, so they can make wise decisions in life, in their career, or in other aspects of life. Many famous people in Chinese history were masters of the Book of Change including Kong Zi who was the founder of Confucianism and many famous leaders of different professions in Chinese history.

Qian symbol (in Chinese, it is called qian gua 亁卦）is the most yang symbol among the 60 divine symbols in the Book of Change. This divine symbol Qian Gua has six lines 爻. Each line represents a different stage of a dragon symbolizing different stages of us, and how we should behave at each stage.

The sequence of the six lines is read from the bottom to the top.

The first line at the bottom of qian gua is the hidden dragon. Hidden dragon means the dragon is still in its learning stage. Symbolizes us being in our learning stage. During this stage, it’s wiser to be humble and do our best to fulfill our responsibility at our position, but not show off ourselves.

The second line of qian gua is the visible dragon. At this stage, the dragon could be visible. It symbolizes at this stage, we have approved our capability to others. We could seek more responsibilities and allow our boss and others to see our talents.

The third line of qian gua is about the cautious dragon. At this stage, the dragon needs to be cautious, constantly strive to become better and stronger, and regularly self-reflect our actions and words. Even if we made mistakes, we could quickly realize and be able to come up with solutions to prevent or fix whatever consequential damage from our mistake.

Ep5 Diet for People with Gout Arthritis

Wednesday, February 7, 2024 • Duration 09:15

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and advanced mechatronic energy healer.

Suggestions for people with gout arthritis, it is important to manage your stress, manage your emotional state, and get sufficient rest.

What should you avoid?
1. you should avoid food with high purine proteins. The end products from metabolizing purine proteins are uric acids. That is why you should eliminate your consumption of food with high purine. Food includes:

beef, animal organs, animal meet, any animals’ bone marrows,
Seafood such as shrimp, crabs, shellfishes, mussels,
Some fish such as carp, flatfish/turbot, sardine, and codfish
Vegetables: spinach, beans, peanuts, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, asparagus

2. you should eat less oily food to eliminate the burden on your kidneys:

pork oil, butter, whipped cream, animal oil
Eliminate deep-fried food,

3. Eliminate stimulants including alcohol, coffee, dark tea, pepper, curry, and hot red pepper.

4. you should eliminate acidic food especially fruits including bananas, apples, plums, oranges, strawberries, grapes, and apricots.

What are the foods people with gout should have more often?

You should have food with low purine proteins including dairy products like (milk, and eggs), you could have rice, noodles, whole wheat bread, lotus roots, juicy fruits that are not so acidic, mixed nuts (except peanuts), vegetable oils, celeries, tomatoes, eggplants, cucumbers, carrots, daikons, white cabbages, lettuce, coleslaw.

2. you should have more basic/alkaline food including kelp, seaweed, green leafy vegetables, fruits and yam, and sweet potatoes.

3. you should have food with high pantothenic acid because pantothenic acid could transform uric acid into urea and be eliminated from our bodies through urine. However, people who have high cholesterol should avoid such food because pantothenic acidic food could be transformed into cholesterol. Those foods are dairy, whole wheat, and egg yolk

Ep 4 Questions on Diet

Wednesday, January 31, 2024 • Duration 10:33

Hello! Welcome to the “You are your best healer podcast”

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and advanced mechatronic energy healer.

I am often asked by patients “Is this food good or bad?”
It depends on your constitution, what your body needs at the moment, and how much you consume. So please be mindful of being balanced in what you eat.

Is it healthier to be a vegetarian?
Being a vegetarian, you have to be even more mindful than carnivores. Most vegetables and fruits go to the Wei qi level which is the muscular skeletal part of our body. Meats and plant-based proteins nourish our blood. Many vegetarians suffer from deficiencies in blood volume, vitamin B, and calcium. Please reference the Mediterranean diet to include a lot of mixed beans, quinoa, hemp seeds, flax seeds, sesame seeds, and mixed nuts into your diet.

Is it better to be dairy-free?

It depends on the genetic constitution of your ethnicity. For example, Europeans and Americans are very used to having milk and cheese, they are not allergic to lactose. However, most Asians are sensitive to lactose.

Cow’s milk has a sweet taste, and a neutral nature, and nourishes qi and blood. They enter the Lungs and Stomach energy meridians of our body. Because they are nourishing yin fluids, they are good in treating constipation due to dryness of the colon. Modern milk seems to be more cooling, they can be good in treating gastric ulcers. However due to their nourishing effect, for people who have poor digestion, especially spleen deficiency, milk could induce more dampness, and phlegm (thick mucus) in our body. According to Chinese Medicine, Spleen is responsible for transforming body fluid and water metabolism. When there is spleen deficiency, the body tends to obtain fluid, and have more dampness accumulation.

Overconsumption of Cheese induces more phlegm heat in the body and could clot our lymphatic vessels. For people who have arthritis or other muscular-skeletal pain conditions with underlying spleen deficiency, please eliminate the consumption of cheese.

Soy milk has similar nourishing properties as cow’s milk, but it enters the spleen energy meridian. If you have spleen deficiency, it is better to drink soy milk. It could nourish the spleen. However, due to its nourishing yin and body fluid properties, overconsumption of soy milk could also induce mucus, and phlegm in our body.

Ep3 Seasonal Diet Guideline

Wednesday, January 24, 2024 • Duration 11:35

Hello! Welcome to the “You are your best healer podcast”

This is Dr. Haizhen Yang. I am an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine herbalist. I am also a certified reiki healer and an advanced Metatronic energy healer.

One of the important guideline is eat seasonal growed food within few hundreds miles of your home.

Spring season is wood element, associates with the liver organ. Our diet should nourish the liver organ. Eat more flowery, green leafy vegetables with sour flavor including: lime, lemon, kiwi, bamboo shoots.

Summer season is fire element, associates with the heart organ. Our diet should cool body's temperature, dispel heat and calm the heart. Eat more fruits and vegetables in red color and bitter flavor to cool the body and hydrate the body fluid. For example: watermelon is very hydrating the body's fluid and cooling in nature. The bittermelon is very cooling.

Autumn season is metal element, associates with the lungs organ. Our diet should nourish and moisten lungs. Eat more food in white color with pungent and spicy flavor. For example: pears could nourishing and moistening lungs. Garlic and onions could disperse lungs energy and nourish lungs. So as scallians.

Winter season is water element. It is associated with the kidneys organ. Our diet should nourish kidneys. Eat more rooty plants including daikons, carrots, sweet potatoes; and more salty flavor food such as fish, seaweeds. Also walnuts and seeds are nourishing kidneys as well.
