All about Mila 911

Hello, my name is Mila and I'm Igor's favorite wife. You asking why he's "favorite", just because we are married almost 45 years and all those years Igor brings me monthly, on our wedding anniversary day, bouquet of flowers.

I was born in small village in Belorussia, 15,000 residents at the time were leaving in that city, graduated from the school with a gold medal, got my engineering MS from University of Technology located in Kaunas, Lithuania.

I think it was related too stress after Chernobyl explosion. I was diagnosed with the heart condition and my doctor told me that I can die any time. 

I had problem to breathe, walk or sleep. When my doctor said that I could die any time on the street, I was shocked. I was only 26 years old. I didn't want to die and went to study Holistic Medicine. Completed nursing program through Red Cross program (got international diploma as a visiting nurse), went to "Continue education for Doctors" I was able to study different modalities: acupressure, massage, energy work, crystal-, music-, color-, water-, therapy and later on I forgot about my problem. I become a practitioner at the Hospital in Kiev, capital of Ukraine and one day my doctor became my patient.

As I mention above, after Chernobyl, we're worry about our children and decided to immigrate to USA.

We borrow some money, purchased the tickets and with luggage in our hand, mainly it were books and Indian movies arrived to state Maryland, near Washington DC.

It wasn't easy. Nobody in our family (my husband Igor, mother-in-law, two little girls, my parents and myself) spoke English at the time. 
In a month Igor got the job in a small company making road sign's. I went to school for medical assistance. During an interview the school principal was confused, after he saw all my diplomas. He ask, why I came to study in his school, because I had more educations then his teachers. The respond was "I haven't came to study medicine, I came to study English". After 9 month full time training I became a certified medical assistant. 

I worked in a medical field for about 6 yrs as a doctors assistant, got certified in physical therapy and work another few years, till my kids, year a part went to collage. I decided to move to the computers field, to be able to help to my girl with helping to pay for there education. Went to collage to Computer science program and got the "Certified Web Specialist" certificate and work as the contractor for many Federal agency's over 20 years.

Now you probably will ask me why I want to share the information with you. It's a simple answer. My husband and I were members of "Charity and Kindness"  club. That club was belong to Red Cross Association and we were helping to people from around the country without any charge. And I really miss this club. A lot of people going through very hard time right know and I think this is the time to use my background and knowledge to share with other people.

I am an International Reiki Master, but those days, on my free time, I do crafts, painting, cooking...

What does golden mustache treat and when is it used:

Gastrointestinal diseases:

Callisia has choleretic properties, helps stabilize metabolism, and relieve heartburn, constipation, and flatulence.

The plant's anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties aid in the treatment of dermatological conditions and burns.

ARVI.

Golden mustache has an antipyretic effect and relieves pain.

Arthritis.

Anti-inflammatory properties help relieve acute joint inflammation associated with arthritis and arthrosis.

Callisia can be used to prevent cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

The antioxidant effect protects cells from aging and destruction, reduces inflammation in the body, and normalizes blood pressure.

Golden mustache helps maintain vascular elasticity, protects the brain, and prevents the development of Alzheimer's disease.

Callisia-based preparations help strengthen the immune system and help combat fatigue and stress.

Despite its many beneficial properties, preparations made from golden mustache should not be used as medication. They can be used as a complementary or preventative measure, and should be used under the supervision of a physician.

Golden mustache can be combined with other herbs, using ready-made herbal infusions, or mixing the ingredients at home.

This complements the properties of callisia and expands its effects. How to take golden mustache?

The method and regimen of administration depend on the condition being treated:

For arthritis, take a tincture of callisia three times daily after meals for a 7-day course;

For hypertension, mix a decoction of golden mustache with a decoction of hawthorn 1:1 and drink in the morning before meals; for constipation, drink the decoction an hour before meals.

Burdock is a plant belonging to the Asteraceae family and is popularly known as Actium. The plant has a large heart-shaped leaf with a very coarse texture. The plane is harvested and flowering is usually observed just after the monsoons, till October. However, the flowers have prickly heads and it is actually the roots that are used during the oil extraction. The roots are crisp, sweet and carry a mild taste just the artichoke. The flowers are edible only if they are still tender and should be collected before spring while they are still very young. The stalks are edible as well and are eaten both raw and after cooking.

What is burdock oil?

This oil is also known as Burl Oil and is extracted from the leaves and the roots of the burdock plant. The oil is known to have both medicinal and cosmetic benefits.

13 Ways Aloe Can Help

Alternative Medicine Magazine, The Voice of Alternative Medicine, issue 3/28/1999.

The Potted Physician

Known to herbalists and medical folklorists for centuries as the "medical plant" or "the potted physician", this cactus-like plant with green dagger-shaped leaves filled with a clear, viscous gel was brought from Africa to North America in the sixteenth century.

But long before this, aloe, whose name means "shining bitter substance," was widely regarded as a master healing plant. The ancient Egyptians referred to aloe as the "plant of immortality" and included it among the funerary gifts buried with the pharaohs. In recent decades, medical research has confirmed and extended many of the health claims for the shining bitter substance (used topically or consumed as a liquid) that is the heart of aloe. Here is a brief review of its merits.

Helps Heal Wounds

The bulk of the aloe leaf is filled with gel, 96% water with the other 4% containing 75 known substances. Applied to wounds, aloe gel is a mild anesthetic, relieving itching, swelling, and pain: it also is antibacterial and antifungal, increases blood flow to wounded areas, and stimulates fibroblasts, the skin cells responsible for wound healing.

An animal-based study in the Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association found that both oral and topical aloe preparations speed wound healing. Animals were given either aloe (100mg/kg body weight) in their drinking water for two months or 25% aloe vera cream applied directly to wounds for six days.

Aloe had positive effects in both cases. The size of wounds decreased 62% in the animals taking oral aloe compared to a 51% in the control group. Topical aloe produced a 51% decrease in wound size compared to a 33% in the control group.

Supports Surgical Recovery

Aloe decreases surgical recovery time, according to a report in the Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology. Eighteen acne patients underwent facial dermabrasion surgery, in which lesions are scraped away. Dressings were applied to their faces, with half of each person's face receiving the standard dressing coated with surgical gel, and the other half with aloe added to this dressing. The half of the face treated with aloe healed approximately 72 hours faster than the other side.

Dermatologist James Fulton, M.D., of Newport Beach, California, principal author of the report, uses topical aloe in his practice to speed wound healing. "Any wound we treat, whether it's suturing a cut or removing a skin cancer, heals better with Aloe Vera on it," he states.

Soothes Burns

In a study in the Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand, 27 patients with moderate burn wounds were treated with a gauze coated in either aloe gel or Vaseline™ (petroleum jelly).  The burns healed more quickly in the aloe group, with an average healing time of 12 days compared to 18 days for the group using Vaseline.

Minimizes Frostbite Damage

A study published in the Annals of Emergency Medicine established that aloe works for frostbite as well.  Researchers gave standard treatments for frostbite (antibiotics, ibuprofen, and re-warming) to 154 patients with mild to severe frostbite.  Of patients who additionally received Aloe Vera cream, 67.9% healed without any tissue loss (amputation) compared to 32.7% in the control group.  Researchers concluded that aloe prevented a decrease of blood flow to the frozen tissues, a common cause of tissue loss in frostbite.

Screens Out Radiation

Aloe protects against skin damage from X rays, according to researchers at Hoshi University in Japan publishing in the journal Yakugaku Zasshi.  They found that aloe was an effective antioxidant, mopping up the free radicals caused by radiation, and that it protected two of the body's healing substances, superoxide dismutase (an antioxidant enzyme) and glutathione (an amino acid which stimulates the immune system).

Heals Psoriasis Lesions

In a double blind, placebo-controlled study published in Tropical Medicine and International Health, 60 patients with chronic psoriasis were given a 0.5% Aloe Vera extract in a mineral oil crème.  The ointment was applied three times daily for five consecutive days (15 applications total per week) for four weeks.

When patients were checked after eight months, far more psoriasis skin lesions had healed in the aloe group (82.8%) than in the placebo group (7.7%).  Further, 83.3% of the aloe group was considered cured of their psoriasis compared to only 6.6% of the placebo group.

Eases Intestinal Problems

Aloe Vera juice can be effective for treating inflammatory bowel disease, according to a study in the Journal of Alternative Medicine.  Ten patients were given two ounces of aloe juice, three times daily, for seven days.  After one week, all patients were cured of diarrhea, four had improved bowel regularity, and three reported increased energy.

Researchers concluded that aloe was able to rebalance the intestines by "regulating gastrointestinal pH while improving gastrointestinal motility, increasing stool specific gravity, and reducing populations of certain fecal microorganisms, including yeast."  Other studies have shown that Aloe Vera juice helps to detoxify the bowel, neutralize stomach acidity, and relieve constipation and gastric ulcers.

Reduces Blood Sugar in Diabetes

Aloe reduced the blood sugar levels in diabetics, as reported in Hormone Research.  Five patients with adult (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes were given 1/2 teaspoon of aloe extract daily for up to 14 weeks.  Blood sugar levels were reduced in all patients by an average of 45%, with no change in their total weight.

Reduces Arthritic Swelling

Aloe can help prevent arthritis and reduce the inflammation in joints already affected by arthritis, according to the Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association.  Aloe can also inhibit the autoimmune reaction associated with certain forms of arthritis, in which the body attacks its own tissues.

Animals were injected with a bacterium to cause arthritic symptoms, namely inflammation and swelling.  To determine if it could prevent arthritis, aloe (150mg/kg body weight) was injected under the skin daily for 13 days.  Physical measurements were taken daily to determine the amount of swelling and inflammation.

Several compounds from aloe showed antiarthritic activity, according to the researchers.  One organic acid in aloe reduced inflammation by 79.7% and suppressed the autoimmune response by 42.4%.  Another aloe compound (anthraquinone) reduced inflammation by 67.3% but had no effect on the autoimmune response.

Curtailing HIV Infection

An extract of mannose, one of the sugars in aloe, can inhibit HIV-1 (the virus associated with AIDS).  In a 1991 study in Molecular Biotherapy, HIV-1 cells were treated in vitro (outside the body) with a mannose extract.  Aloe slowed virus reproduction by as much as 30%, reduced viral load (total amount of the virus), suppressed the spread of the virus from infected cells, and increased the viability (chance of survival) of infected cells.

Nutritional Support for HIV Patients

Aloe Vera juice proved to be an effective part of a nutritional support program for HIV+ patients according to the Journal of Advancement in Medicine.  For four months, 29 patients were given 100% pure Aloe Vera juice (five ounces, four times daily) along with an essential fatty acid supplement and another supplement containing vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.  Patients were told to continue with their normal diet and not to take other supplements.

After 90 days, all of the patients had fewer occurrences of opportunistic infections, thrush, fatigue, and diarrhea, as well as increased white blood cell counts (meaning their immune systems were responding positively).  Their assessment of overall quality of health also improved.  In 25% of the patients, aloe apparently knocked out the virus's ability to reproduce.  Researchers found that aloe (the mannose extract and perhaps other compounds) stimulates the body's immune system, particularly T4 helper cells, white blood cells that activate the immune response to infection.

Stimulates Immune Response Against Cancer

Aloe may help prolong survival time and stimulate the immune system of cancer patients, according to recent research.

In a 1994 study in the Japanese medical journal Yakhak Hoeji, mice with cancerous tumors were given aloe orally for 14 days.  While the aloe did not suppress tumor growth, the average life span of the mice was prolonged by 22% for those given 50mg aloe/kg body weight and by 32% for those given 100mg/kg daily.  A simultaneous experiment on human cancer cells (outside the body) found that high doses of aloe significantly suppressed the growth of these cancer cells.

Researchers writing in Cancer Immunology and Immunotherapy found that a compound (lectin) from aloe, when injected directly into tumors, activated the immune system to attack the cancer.  Killer T cells, white blood cells that bind to invading cells and destroy them, began to attack the tumor cells injected with lectin.

Aloe turns on the immune system by activating macrophages (white blood cells which "swallow" antigens), causing the release of immune-activating (and anticancer) substances such as interferon, interleukines, and tumor necrosis factor.  In addition, aloe promotes the growth of normal (non-cancerous) cells, researchers said.

Benefits Lung Cancer

Aloe's protective effect was confirmed in a study of 673 lung cancer patients in Okinawa, Japan, published in the Japanese Journal of Cancer Research.  This survey looked at the connection between smoking, comparative amounts of 17 plant foods in the diet, and the occurrence of lung cancer over a five-year period.

Aloe was the only one of the plant foods that was protective against cancer. "The results of plant epidemiology suggests that aloe prevents human pulmonary carcinogenesis [lung cancer]," stated the researchers.  Further, aloe is "widely preventive or suppressive against various human cancers."
