Hi guys!
Just got over my first bout of jaundice. Like wow!
Afraid of yellow fever? So was I; until I had a bout of it, that is. Jaundice, it’s one and the same. Then it is that I came to realize the hows, whys and cures of it.
No big deal, actually; let’s get straight to the point.
For relief from jaundice, I would recommend:
- Practice Yoga
- Drink 6-8 glasses of water a day
- Eat lots of raw fruits and vegetables (especially green leafy vegetables)
- Juice is good (make your own with a juice machine)
- Avoid coffee, alcohol, soda pop, other junk food drinks
- Avoid processed foods white sugar, white flour, etc.
- Avoid red meat and animal fats
- Reduce dairy products cheese, milk, and others
- Fast a few days a month
- A colon intestinal cleansing is helpful
- Get lots of sleep
- Don’t smoke; Avoid second hand smoke
Yoga: Try Matsyasana, Sarvangasana, Baddha Padmasana. Pranayamas, Sitali & Shitkari. They worked wonders for me.
Herbs: Chamomile is very effective for jaundice and for kids suffering from colic. Dandelion also increases activity in the pancreas, liver, and spleen and contains insulin substitutes. It has a high vitamin and mineral content. Subsequently, it is used to treat liver and kidney disorders.
Diet: Go for the boiled & spice less diet. Take radish leaves, tomato, lemon and dry fruits like dried dates with almonds & Cardamoms. Also have plenty of sugarcane juice, orange juice, bitter Luffa and barley water. This improves urination which helps get rid of excess bile pigments in the blood.
Lifestyle: I’d say take complete rest. Avoid heat, sex and psychic factors like anger and anxiety.
