(NewsTarget) In Kenya, people look to innovative ways for effective ways to boost the immune system when dealing with HIV/AIDS. For Persons Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHAs) there`s a simple way to assess your own state of health. In fact, these six points are good indicators for any patient suffering cancer or other debilitating disease. And as an added bonus, there`s a great little recipe that will naturally improve your health dramatically.

Six Key Indicators
  • Poor Appetite: Do you have a poor appetite?
  • Poor Digestion: Are you not digesting your food very well?
  • Low body temperature: Are you constantly chilled?
  • Poor sleep: Do you sleep poorly and wake un-refreshed
  • Unhealthy Liver: Do you feel sluggish or have unhealthy yellowish skin?
  • Unhealthy Intestines: Are you constipated or have unhealthy stools?

Stress, Nutrition and Disease

These six indicators are not particularly connected to bacterial infection as much as they are connected to our old friends stress and nutritional neglect. When you don`t get proper nutrition - either from poverty or from ignorance (as for example, in the modern society, one may be fooled into eating processed and chemicalized foods), one`s health, of course, gets affected. And stress, too, plays its part to bring immunity down.

Any health caregiver or naturopath will first look at these major factors for assessing their patient`s health status. Restoring these important functions will go a long way to restoring the immune system`s functionality.

Without good appetite and digestion, the simple process to get good nutrition into the body doesn`t have a fighting chance. So improving one`s appetite and ability to digest food is essential.

Many people with a compromised immune system, be it from HIV/AIDS or cancer, suffer from lack of body heat and feel chilly all the time. This low body temperature can be a sign that the body has "given up" the fight against infections. On the other hand, at least in a fever, the body is still having enough vigour to battle against a disease. A normal body temperature is a sign of a functioning immune system.

The body`s resources get depleted without a good night`s refreshing sleep. Constant lack of good sleep increases stress levels and leaves one open to many diseases.

There are a number of medicinal foods and herbs that can be used to re-establish balance for these six indicators. In Kenya, the team at Abha Light Foundation, created an affordable, delicious recipe that puts these therapeutic foods together into a tasty "medicine".

Grind, mix or blend together the below ingredients in a bottle. Let marinate for about a week, then sieve out the solids leaving a delicious "medicine". The "dose" is just 1 - 3 tablespoons a day sprinkled over your food - a delicious way to help turn around your immune response!
