Painful Menstruation               

   Balanced hormonal levels is critical for the well being of women. There are many factors like diet, life style that affect the hormones. Liver helps to produce balanced amount of hormones by the sexual organs. Liver also removes the  used hormones from the body. This is detoxification. Our approach is to enhance detoxification that allows fresh production of hormones by liver. So we focus on the liver in the pancha bhoota therapy and helped a lot of women.

Water Therapy:

Do Water Therapy every day with the flavors mentioned in web site. This will correct the hormones by cleansing liver.  Drink 1.5 liters of water first in the morning, using mild amount of flavors like ginger root powder cumin seeds, coriander seeds,  etc  for better results.

Earth Therapy:  Fiber-rich foods absorb detoxified hormone products that are excreted through the bile. If there is not fiber, the detoxified product is reabsorbed into the system.  We recommend using fiber rich whole grains like brown rice (remember to soak in water and cook), whole rye flakes (33% fiber compared to 20% fiber in oats), whole wheat flakes (28%), barley flakes (26%). Millets like Ragi rich in fiber. In all ancient traditions, people ate different types of grains and millets  many of the readers might be unaware of the names.  These millets give different nourishment , detoxifies the body and also help prevent many diseases like cardiovascular, diabetes, cancer etc.
