I am of the opinion (based on my research thinking in the area of Ecological Healing System), that when a person’s body becomes highly acidic (due to hyperacidosis), his /her immunity gets lost, and he/she becomes susceptible to any of the virus diseases.When a person consumes calcium containing food, the calcium keeps circulating in the lymph fluid for a while, until it is used up by the body, or is voided in the urine.
.
Such free-floating calcium in the lymph fluid appears to be providing immunity against viruses. This calcium can be neutralised (spoiled) by an acid, and can also be removed through the urine or a few more sources.
.
Practically all the overweight people, irrespective of the quantity of water they consume, under-urinate (they void only about 2 - 4 times in 24 hours' day). This enhances the accumulation of excessive calcium in the soft tissues of their body, which in turn increases their body weight. (I have discussed this with enough of evidences in my book “Obesity: Causes, Cure and Prevention” 446 pages, ISBN967-9988-05-8).

.
Thus the overweight and obese people retain excessive calcium in their body, and that provides them a high level of immunity against all forms of virus diseases, including sore throat, common cold, flu, and also H1N1.
.
That is why the obese people do not get any common cold or flu for several years. However, if they get the cold, it never leaves them easily - they suffer for a prolonged period of even three weeks. Drugs do not seem to help them.

.
Whereas the skeletal-looking and the thin people drink large quantities of water (about 2 - 4 L a day), and also urinate liberally (about 10 - 14 times a day). Such excessive urination tends to deplete from their body most of the calcium. As a result, they have only least amounts of calcium stored in their body tissues, and that makes them easy targets for such virus infections. This group of people are prone to get common cold and flu every now and then. However, it would disappear within 2 or 3 days.
.
If the blood of the obese people are tested, it would indicate that they have enough of immunity.
.
Whereas, the same test in the skeletal-looking people would show that they do not have the immunity. Thus, they are easily susceptible to virus attacks.
.
Most of the free calcium in pregnant women tends to get transferred to the growing-up baby in the womb.
.
Likewise, heavy and prolonged menstrual discharges also tend to remove large quantities of calcium.
.
Even breast-feeding mothers tend to transfer most of the free calcium to their babies (mother's milk contains 20 mg of calcium per 100 ml).
.
Women who retain very little calcium in their body can become easy victims of H1N1, due to calcium depletion/inadequacy. Therefore, it becomes very important for all the above three types of women to consume a little more calcium.
.
I am not in favour of any of these people taking calcium supplements in the form of tablets. Instead, they should go for those foods and drinks that are naturally rich in calcium.
.
While taking calcium-rich foods, one should be cautious against over-doing.
.
It is important to remember that excessive intake of calcium can give rise to obesity, lumps, cysts, fibroids, kidney stones, prostate problems, and cancers. (I have given a vivid description of such details in my book “The True Causes of All Diseases”. 2008. 192pp. ISBN978-967-9988-13-0)
.
(Arising out of the above fact, the overweight and obese people, besides increasing the frequency of urination, should avoid taking calcium-rich foods, fruits and drinks. I have also established that the Diabetic sufferers too should avoid excessive calcium intake, lest their blood serum sugar level would go higher up.)

As per my findings, in “Ecological Healing System”, there are a few more relevant causes that can give rise to H1N1 disease. They include the following:

As per my findings, in “Ecological Healing System”, there are a few more relevant causes that can give rise to H1N1 disease. They include the following:
.
It is common knowledge that all metabolic activities result in acid production. Thus, if a person indulges in any form of physical activity beyond the tolerance limit, such as Marathon run, his/her body develops hyperacidosis.
It is common knowledge that all metabolic activities result in acid production. Thus, if a person indulges in any form of physical activity beyond the tolerance limit, such as Marathon run, his/her body develops hyperacidosis.
Keeping awake late-nights without adequate sleep, over-working non-stop without adequate rest, excessive starvations, etc. are also not advisable.
When a person masturbates without any kind of lubrication* (i.e., 'dry' masturbation, as it happens in some middle-aged men and most of those in their fifties and sixties), his/her body tends to become acidified. Such an acidification, if that happens to be within the tolerance limit of the body, nothing serious may happen. However, if the frequency of such dry masturbation increases to a level that exceeds the tolerance capacity of the body, then he/she can almost certainly develop hyperacidosis, followed by sore throat, flu, and possibly H1N!. (The Thin and Skeletal people appear to be more susceptible to this problem than the overweight and obese).
.
(* The pre-coital secretion that oozes out in the younger people while masturbating, and in the middle or aged people while having sex with their partners, forms lubrication, and that helps in the prevention of friction heat. As a result of this, the body does NOT develop any form of hyperacidosis. In other words, frequent sex relations to not result in making the body acid. Therefore, that does not make the body susceptible for virus infections.)Consuming frequently too much of acid foods, fruits and drinks, especially by the thin-built people, will be inviting the H1N1 disease. The over-weight people may not need to fear in this respect.
.
Fruits such as Kundang (Bouea oppositifolia), rambai (Baccaurea motleyana), macang (Mangifera longipetiolata), sour mango (Mangifera indica), duku langsat (Lansium sp.), rambutan (Nephelium lappaceum), mangosteen (Garcinia artoviridis), sour belimbing (Averrhoa sp.), durian (Durio zibethinus), sour durian belanda (Annona muricata), sour plum (Prunus cultivar), strongly sour-tasting pineapple, etc., and vegetables such as asam paya/asam susur/pulicha keerai (Hibiscus sabdariffa), are strong acids. Cosuming too much of this at any one time, or too frequently, may make a person susceiptible to virus-caused diseases.
.
.
Strong sour drinks such as Roselle (extracted from Hisbiscus sabdariffa), tamarind juice (Asam jawa), passion fruit juice (Passiflora edulis), etc. are also highly acidic items. Most of the bottled drinks, if they happen to be acidic, may be because of citric acid addition, are not suitable for the thin and skeletal-looking people, especially during a peak virus-outbreak season.
.
.
Rain water and pure distilled water are acidic, and they do not contain any mineral substance. Therefore, the thin people should avoid drinking this. Water from pond, river and tap should be considered safe in this respect.
.
Most of the mineral water and processed distilled water sold in bottles tend to be in the vicinity of pH 7.0 or so. All these, and also the tap water passed through even a simple carbon water purifier, should be considered very safe in this respect.

.
Orange, lemon and pomelo, etc. although they contain citric acid, should be considered safe for consumption, for they contain more of the alkaline potassium (than the acid substances), and therefore these fresh juices/fruits would produce alkaline urine, and thereby do not disturb the body’s immunity. Very often, if a person who develops sore throat (and is about to develop a fever) takes these fruits/fresh juices, his/her sore throat would vanish overnight.

Alkaline fruits such as pears, dragon fruit, banana, honey melon, water melon, sweet apple, and vegetables such as pumpkin varieties, onion, cucumber, loofa, lady’s finger, beetroot, cauliflower, carrot, etc. are good for the thin-built, because they are rich in calcium, and therefore they work against virus infections.
.
In general, most of the green leafy vegetables tend to contain plenty of calcium, and therefore, they should be considered very safe for consumption during virus epidemics.
.
Eggs, fish, especially ikan bilis (anchovies), etc. are also good sources of calcium. These are good for the Thin and the Skeletal-looking people. If the over-weight people consume too much of these items, they tend to put on more weight.

Coconut water (similar to the citrus fruits such as oranges and lemons) are acidic when tested using a pH meter. However, again similar to the citrus fruits, the coconut water also contains plenty of the alkaline substances that it helps in neutralising the body acidity.
.
Those who feel highly 'heaty' because of extreme acidity (but not have developed the fever yet) can neutralise it by drinking coconut water (Cocos nucifera). I have found that drinking a glass of it about twice a day for two days should be adequate to neutralise hyperacidosis in people. (If coconut water is taken in the night hours, for some reason, the body develops aches the next day. Therefore, it would be better not to drink it by evenings or late nights.)

The fruit of palmyra tree that is mistakenly called “Sea Coconut” ('Nonggu' in Tamil) (Borassus flabellifers), which is available during hot and dry season in Penang, South India, Thailand, and a few more countries near the equator, is extremely alkaline. Therefore, they are best used as herbal medicine for a cure of H1N1. However, this should be eaten just before the onset of the disease, and not if the person has already developed it. (Eating 2 pieces, thrice a day, for two days appear to be the correct dosage).
.
.
I have, in my book “Obesity: Causes, Cure and Prevention” (1998), indicated that the overweight people should consume only very small quantities of the alkaline products, for they tend to put on more weight if they consumed them in larger quantities, and may even end up with obesity-related diseases as pointed out above.
.
Preservative containing sourkana, bokana, orange skin, lemon skin, red ginger, etc. tend to make the body acidic. Therefore, they are best avoided at all times, if possible.

Foods most suitable for the thin people (to avoid H1N1 infection) should include rice and rice-based items. High protein diet (e.g., chicken), since it tends to release acid during the process of digestion, should not be consumed in large quantities. (Mutton, fish, egg, etc. should be considered good for this group of people).
.
Food items cooked two or three days ago, especially if they contain dhall, green-gram, blackgram, peanuts, etc., tend to become acidic, and these are not good at all.

Many drugs tend to make the body acidic. Therefore, it would be better to avoid taking them unnecessarily. Without medical advice from a Dietician, one should avoid taking even vitamin supplements.

I have discussed in detail the relationship between body’s high acidity or alkalinity and immunity against virus diseases, common cold, flu, German measles, shingles, etc. in my book “Human Diseases” (2007; 336 pages), and “The True Causes of All Diseases” (2008. 192 pages. ISBN978-967-9988-13-0).

Dear Dr Palani,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for setting up your blog, and sending me the e-mail even though I have moved to Sydney. The info is very useful and hope you can continue the good work for people like me who sometimes get confused on different opinions on health matters.
Just to add on the coconut. I was introduced to virgin coconut oil (VCO) by my doctor many years ago.
VCO is very effective for viral infections and I have been using it alone for colds, fever etc with great success.
What bullshit is this?
ReplyDeleteDear Dr.Palani,
ReplyDeleteThis morning when my school teachers were shocked to hear about one ex-student's death because of H1N1 disease, I told them about you and your article-"Prevention of H1N1 disease". I immediately typed your blog's URL at access point right beside our main office. Few teachers were so curious to read your article and one of them is my school Principal.
Thanks for the useful info.
There is no 'bullshit' about it. Give positive criticism as what Dr Palani said. My intention is good, I want to share 'healthy' information with others.
ReplyDeleteDr, what is your view on virgin coconut oil?
Dear Anon.,
ReplyDeleteVirgin coconut oil is said to be very good for various health problems. Dr.Theiyanayagam (Makkal TV, from India) often speaks very high of its qualities. In fact, many do.
Personally, I have not tested it out yet.
However, I have tested one aspect of the commercially manufactured coconut oil (not the virgin one) some 25 years ago, when I was seriously involved in hair and skin care research and consultation services.
I have been recommending gingerly oil (i.e., cold-pressed Sesame seed oil, minyak lenga or minyak bijan, in Malay)for use on skin, when one wants to take body-oil bath.
Our body's own natural oil (sebum) has certain beneficial properties. Besides being germicidal, it will not condense in cold temperature to become ice (similar to water), whereas, coconut oil, if kept in a cool environment (e.g., in the vegetable-keeping compartment in the fridge), will turn into ice.
Whereas, if gingerly oil is kept there, it will not become ice.
Thus in Winter (or while in highlands)with our body's sebum, our skin would not shrink.
Likewise, if gingerly oil is rubbed on the skin, it would still keep in good shape.
Whereas, if we apply coconut oil over the skin, it would shrink, and would also itch. Wounds would occur if we scratched.
In this respect alone, coconut oil may not be useful.
However, Siddha and Ayurvedic medical systems seem to be encouraging the use of virgin coconut oil for the preparation of hair oils.
Coconut oil is a 'thin' oil, unklike gingerly oil, and therefore, may not block the hair follicels on the scalp.
If and when I do some experimentation with virgin coconut oil, I will remember to post the result here.
Thanks, Dr. Palani.
Hi Dr. Palani,
ReplyDeleteThanks for tips .. I like your blog very much .. Yeah, I agree with you that all nutrient should be natural, not in tablet form..
Sir,
ReplyDeletethank you for providing us, interesting and easy to read health articles.
In that respect, I would like to use your article and quote you in an article about H1N1.
The article will be post in an online news portal www.malaysianmirror.com.

Dear Cik Honeymah Dylyani,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your mail.
(a) Ref: Quoting my H1N1 news: That is an honour and I should thank you for that.
I have a lot more information in connection with H1N1. However, I am holding it for a while simply because our Hon.Health Minister has appealed through the Press to all the Complementary and Alternative Medical Practitioners not to give out news to the mass media, for they tend to get confused. I tend to agree with that to a great extent.
Besides being a law-abiding citizen, I am also a bit scared of authorities. Therefore, when you quote, kidly do it in such a way that I will not get into trouble. I will be thankful to you for that.
With thanks again and best wishes to you and your team,
Dr.Palani.

Dear Dr. Palani,
ReplyDeleteThis is a great and informative post! It's very kind of you to share such article with the world during this critical outbreak of H1N1.
I'm a blog writer of Paul Penders Co. http://www.paulpenders.com/ppblog/
I just wrote a post regarding to coconut water and included your information in it. I also inserted a picture of you, hope you don't mind.
Thanks again for sharing. Please keep it up. The world needs men like you :)
Warmest Regards,
Shirley
Dear Dr. Palani,
ReplyDeleteI'm very lucky to come across your blog site by chance.
I'm currently into my 32 weeks of pregnancy and more to the overweight side. And am very concern about the H1N1, since i'm considered to be in the high risk group.
Could you advise me on the type of food i should be taking to boost my immunity against this leathal virus.
Thank you and God Bless!
