Most eye trouble is due to insufficient circulation and nutritional deficiency in the eye muscles and the optic nerve. The optic nerve is one of the most powerful nerves in the body and uses up to 30% of available glucose (blood sugar).
When blood sugar runs dry, all nerves must rely on glycogen from the liver; any interruption in glycogen supply due to liver dysfunction is often reflected in eye trouble.
Chinese physicians always look first to the liver when treating eye problems; a polluted bloodstream can also cause serious eye problems. Dullness of the eyes indicates a general lack of energy. Redness of the white portion of the eyes indicates an inflammatory condition. It can also indicate a nutritional deficiency. Yellowness of the white of the eye indicates a malfunction of the liver and jaundice. By practicing loving-kindness and directing your soft attention into your eye area and relaxing the tension away around the eyes, the circulation improves and eventually the eyesight will improve.
1] Loving-Kindness Meditation: Practice this for at least 30 minutes 2 x’s daily. By placing your attention around the eyes and relaxing the muscles there, the blood circulation to that area brings healing.

Fatigue
Chronic fatigue is an indication that the body’s ‘batteries’ have run down and resistance is lower, and thus serves as a warning that disease might strike at any time; it is primarily due to a critical deficiency of active enzymes in the diet and an overabundance of ‘dead’ processed, overcooked foods, in incompatible combinations; and it can also be from a very often over-looked cause and that is yeast and fungal overgrowth. Thrush is an indication of yeast activity. There are over 20 different kinds of poisons emitted by various strains of yeast, including Candida Albicans. These toxins are a major cause of fatigue and depression. It is best to avoid white sugar, alcohol, white rice and refined starches.

2] Pecans: nature’s most potent source of organic pyridoxine (vitamin B6), which is essential for all nervous functions and plays a key role in utilizing amino acids derived from consumed proteins.
Since all vital functions are controlled by the nervous system, pecans provide the element required by nerves to transform nutritional “essence” to functional energy and regulate the body; 10-15 raw pecans, or 20-30 pecan halves daily is a therapeutic dose.
3] Carrot, Beet, Cucumber Juice: this blend provides a potent boost of active enzymes and organic nutrients to the bloodstream, while in turn improves blood quality and helps relieve fatigue; 10 oz./ 3oz./ 3oz., 1-2 pints (500 ml-1 liter) daily.

Hypertension
Besides stress and other psychological factors, hypertension is caused by the irritation of various nerve centers owing to nutritional deficiency, retention of toxic wastes and lack of organic alkaline elements. For example, severe hypertension that leads to violent outbursts has been quickly cured in many patients with sufficient doses of niacin (vitamin B3).
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) in organic form relieves the hypertension associated with nervous stress. Loving-kindness meditation is very necessary to help over-come this problem.

3] Yeast: brewer’s yeast dissolves in a cup of warm water and taken on an empty stomach provides a powerful dose of all important B vitamins in organic form. Brewer’s yeast, though more palatable, is technically ‘dead’ and thus not as potent a source of nutritional elements; 1 small packet of granular brewer’s yeast per cup of warm water, twice daily.
4] Lecithin: the most basic building block of brain and nerve tissues, organic lecithin may be taken as liquid extract of soy beans or in the form of raw egg yolks (same as for fatigue).
5] Wheat Germ Oil: nature’s best source of organic vitamin E, which is essential for optimum nerve function; 1 tsp daily after breakfast, another after dinner.

Insomnia
Inability to sleep owing to an overactive mind and the inability to relax the mind and body in general. Severe emotional problems may cause insomnia. It is not a disease, but a sign of an emotional or physical problem that interferes with normal mechanisms.
Sleeping pills cannot induce a natural state of sleep. It is best to avoid them and take up regular exercise in the evening.
Avoid sugary snacks, heavy foods and alcohol before bed time. Trytophan which is found in protein foods from dairy products like skim milk and cheese, together with amino acids stimulate production of the body’s own sleep chemical serotonim.

Migraine
Migraine was believed to be a psychosomatic syndrome involving constrictions and swelling of the blood vessels. However, it is a specific headache usually due to nerve problems. Recently studies reveal that it seems from a biological abnormality of the nerve cells and chemical messengers deep in the brain. It is a phenomenon of sudden constriction and subsequent relaxation of the blood vessels of the brain resulting in a disorderly supply of blood and oxygen to the brain. By practicing loving-kindness meditation ones learns how to open their mind and relax the tensions away this allows for the circulation to improve and more oxygen circulates in the brain relieving the problem.
In women, an attack mostly occurs during hormonal changes. It afflicts one side of the head and throbbing or piercing pain is experienced. Sometimes this is accompanied by blurring vision, dizziness and diarrhea. There can also be nausea and intolerance to lights and sounds, distortions of the cognitive functions, disturbed sleep, and mood disorders. Stress, chemical stimuli, change in atmospheric pressure, hormones and food can contribute to the problem. Women suffer more than men mainly due to hormonal factors and chemicals used in food, pollution and constipation. During pregnancy, women are generally free from migraine. It is one of the commonest side effects of using contraceptive pills. When the adrenal hormone production is low, blood vessels are more prone to dilation.
1] Loving-Kindness Meditation: Place your soft attention into the head area. Relax all thinking and wishing the pain would go away, as this is a form of aversion. Feel the tightness relax and the tension open up and let go. Now radiate love and calmness into that area. Everytime the tightness or tension arises again repeat the opening process. Practice this meditation for at least 30 minutes 2 x’s daily. And whenever the migraine appears, the faster you see it starting and open up then relax into it the less distress it will cause.
