Painters

271 previously unknown works by Pablo Picasso are found.

(Click here to read this news)

I have heard many artists (painters) gave their paints for neighbors, friends or just someone who know each other.

Because many of them were poor or not famous at those time.
Their work become popular after their death or in their later life.

I now a story of a Japanese painter, Kaita Murayama (1896-1919).

He was really poor in his young age right after he graduated high school.
He lived in a small room with very cheap rent.
His landlord invited him for dinners all the time, because he did not have any money at that time.

Thereafter he moved out the room, and he left a his painting for the landlord as gratitude.

Years years later, offspring of the landlord came to a TV show.
The TV show appraise every thing, such as old toys, calligraphies and paintings.

And the appraisers priced the his painting, "auction start at 30,000,000 yen (about $375,000), final price should be over 100,000,000 yen (about $1,250,000)".

He died by Spanish flu in 1919, that was about 80 years before this TV show.
And the offspring of the landlord said, "we don't sell this, because this picture is treasure of my family".

Cont. Toxic Minerals

Continuing from Nov. 15th post for toxic mineral.

Aluminum is one of them, too.
It is comes from:
Aluminum pots or pans, can, thin foil, toothpaste, digestive medicine and baking powder.
The symptoms are:
Lack of appetite, shortness of breath, myalgia, convulsion, digestive disorder and Alzheimer.

Cadmium,
Comes from:
Smoking, exhaust fumes, plating factory and bearing factory.
The symptoms are:
Hair loss, anemia, lack of appetite, fatigue, increasing blood pressure and over sensitivity.

Nickel,
Comes from:
Smoking, margarine and plating factory.
The symptoms are:
Lassitude, fatigue, diarrhea, insomnia and dermatitis.

These above are major toxic minerals.

And the symptoms of Cadmium are totally corresponding to "Blood Deficiency" in Oriental Medical Theory.

Our ancestors were probably practicing to the patients who were contaminated by Cadmium, before they found the element "Cadmium".


By the way, I just realized a fact today that "Ni-Cad Battery" is abbreviation of "Nickel Cadmium Battery".




I haven't seen this awhile, fortunately (^^)v.

Euglena


mmm... yum yum....

Castella (sponge cake) came from Portugal hundreds years ago.

It is one of the Japanese classic cake in now a day.


A confectionery "SouKe Kutsuwa-Dou" (in Takamatsu Tokushima, Japan) succeeded to make the Castella with Euglena.

They hope good effect for beauty and health because Euglenas contain various nutrients such as vitamin B group, vitamin C, folic acid, DHA, EPA, zinc, etc...

A piece of Castella (about an inch in thickness) contain about 220,000,000 Euglenas.

A whole cake (a little shorter than a foot long) is 1,995 Yen (about $24).

Do you want to try? (≡^∇^≡)

Cat & Gator

You may have seen this video yet (click here),
because the counter indicates more than 2,300,000 views.

This cat is so brave.

But don't try it.

Maybe they were in the mood like "Gators just wanna have fun".

Toxin

I wrote about mercury 2 post ago.

At this time, I talk about some other "Toxins"".

In past several years or decade, I have heard the word "Detox" often.
I don't really know what the people are calling "toxin" for.

I have seen some people soak their feet in sea salt water with electric poles, and then the water color turn to dark.
Magnesium, natrium (=sodium) and some more elements move to negative pole (because they are easy to lose electrons).
Sulfur, phosphorus, etc. move to positive pole (opposite reason of above).
Iron, copper and zinc appear often, too.

These were not come from their body, came from sea salt.
However, body oil from their feet also maybe one of the elements for turning water color dark.

By the way, the zinc is one of the toxic minerals for your body.
That is contained in gasoline, hair color, pottery, paint, and old water pipe...
The symptoms are anemia, anxiety, dizziness, pain in bone and muscle, headache...

Arsenic is another toxic mineral.
Contained in pesticide, vermicide...
The symptoms are fatigue, burning pain in hands and feet, gastrointestinal dysfunction.

I don't think you should shut out 100% of those, but hope those away from you as much as possible.


I am planning that I will mention to other toxin in sometime later.

Chocolate

One of my cousin is a patisserie.

He has had some awards in Japan and France.


He made a very high quality chocolate in several years ago.

That is named "Maboroshi" meaning "Phantom".

That is sized little bit smaller than a ping-pong ball.

And the price is 1,200 Japanese Yen + tax.

In U.S. dollar, it is $15 in recent late.

Yes, I thought, "What a expensive!" as you thought.


But I accidentally found this article today. (click here)

$250 a piece?!

Oh My Buddha!
Who .... Where .... How .... and ....

For your health, be careful for over eating of chocolate.

Do you want to over eat these chocolates?


I like "KitKat" by the way... (^^)v

Mercury

I saw a patient first time in a while.


We were talking about food.

And she said, “I don’t eat sushi sashimi any more, because mercury”.


In general, I don’t really think you should be worried about mercury from most food from major markets or restaurants in LA.


However, this patient was under the acupuncture treatments for infertility and she got a baby at her 42 years old in few years ago.

And she has a plan to have another baby.


So I agreed her avoiding raw fish.

Anyway, mercury comes to your body from:

Contaminated sea foods, pesticide, cosmetic products, amalgam (the metal for tooth cavity), mercury cell, medical thermometer, thimerosal (preservative of preventive vaccination), etc.

The symptoms are:

Headache, deafness, pain with unknown source, no appetite, nauseas, fatigue, depression, washed-out feeling, exhaustion, atopic dermatitis, allergic reaction, obesity, autism, ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder).

There are so many symptoms.

In most of cases, the reasons are something else though.

If you are worried intoxication of mercury by these symptoms, go to see physicians before panic.

And I am a physician, too. As you know…

I'm Back

I'm Back.

I have been out of this blog a while.
Because I had some personal issues.

4 of my supporters passed away in last several months.
I have done some massages to them, but they were not my patients.
They were my supporters.
Non of them went by disease or sickness.

I have thought writing about them, but I don't.
I just live stronger with feeling them.

And if God tries to take you away from this world, I will fight with God.

Rest in peace, Amen.
