Pregnancy - Vomiting During

Question: Good evening. My daughter in law living next to us in New York is at the beginning of her pregnancy and she does not feel well. She is regularly vomiting a few times during the day and night. Will you be able to help her from a long distance?
Answer: Good evening to you too. The problem of vomiting during pregnancy can indicate a few possibilities:

First and foremost, it is a sign of weakness, which was there already even before the pregnancy, and this weakness was carried into the pregnancy. We could certainly help her, and as an emergency, she can start on our herbal formulas. As we recently sent you our “ProGut” (SEE, Products – click), she could start on that and we will immediately send you another pack. The current dosage for your daughter in law should be taken in small amounts (1/3 a teaspoon) a few times during the day. This small amount is advised at the beginning, because the taste of the formula would be something new and unfamiliar to her and at the moment, being pregnant, she is very taste-sensitive. It is also advisable to filter thoroughly the fluid, for the same reason. This formula helps to strengthen the digestive system and improves its movement and peristalsis downward.

I would like to mail you our questionnaire for her to fill out and mail ir back to us together with her recent blood test to see the quality of absorption in the gut and whether she has also anemia. According to the findings, I would be able to continue help her with further specialized herbal formulas and supplements.

Question: Good afternoon, I was feeling a lot better since we had our treatment…no heartburn, I am sleeping better. But yesterday I started feeling worse. I have these episodes of my heart racing, I feel bloated and nauseous, dizzy, pounding headache and very anxious. It feels like I’m going to faint. It usually happens after I have eaten. I have had so many tests in this last year: aKG, echocardiogram, lung X-ray, abdominal ultrasound, endoscopy, blood tests, urine cultures. Thank God everything comes out normal. What am I doing wrong? I even got nervous about my sugar, thinking it was hypoglycemia, and I tested it during one of those episodes. It was Ok, 93.
Answer: I am pleased to hear that you feel an improvement in your health. As to the list of tests you have done, which all turned out to be OK – unfortunately, this is not consistent with reality. Machines are just a utility to help the doctor ascertain a diagnosis – either ruling out some possibilities or finding out the degree of a pathological severity. However, these are just machines and they can never replace a proper and professional bodily check by the doctor himself.

Regarding your report about feeling faint, etc.: generally, it is rather difficult to deduce anything from a recent one-off episode, unless this continues and appears a few more times. It would not be advisable to attach too much importance to it now and make pre-mature decisions. From our short acquaintance, there is a good chance that what you felt might have some emotional background to it. Try to notice what were the triggers and try to relax, not to worry too much and balance yourself again.

Question: Thanks for your response. Yes, I did have a big emotional upheaval last week relating to my work. I would almost describe it as a trauma.
Answer: It is OK, sometimes these things happen, and it is only natural. Emotions can take over and drastically change the function of the bodily systems. I would recommend to you add for a while our kidney aid formula (Nephroxil), before the digestive system aid formula (ProGut) you usually take. It will rehabilitate and strengthen you after the emotional shock and the strain you felt. I would also suggest taking two days of time out, trying to get away from it all as much as possible, and be with yourself, nurturing and observing. Don’t hesitate reporting to me further, and I will do my best to help you in any way I can.

Question: Hello! I have been diagnosed with PSP brain disease, for which I was told there is no cure. What do you know about this disease?
Answer: Hello to you! PSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy) is considered by the medical establishment to be a result of damage to nerve cells in the brain. The first question we need to consider is whether this diagnosis in your case is indeed final.



In any case, the mere medical term for your condition does not shed any light as to what is actually happening in your body and what should be the precise course of action. Even if there is damage to the brain nerves, we need to ask ourselves, what are the root causes for the condition, not in general, but in your specific case.



Nerve damage can occur from a list of diverse reasons. Even of 10 people diagnosed with PSP would walk in for a treatment, we would still need, first, to find out precisely in each and every case, what are the specific base causes and conditions leading to the pathology. Not every patient with the same PSP diagnosis necessarily manifests the same symptoms and pathology routes. Therefore, to know what is the most possible efficient treatment course in your case, we need to investigate all these factors and not go just by the term PSP. Then we would also be more knowledgeable as to whether, how much and how to make the symptoms reversable. As every disease occurs from various causes and conditions and manifests differently both in terms of the symptoms and their severity, it could not be deemed from the start as “incurable”.
Read More
Question: I understand. This is very interesting and encouraging to know. You have given me hope. I was always told that PSP is incurable and not much could be done to stop the advancement of the disease. Is this so?
Answer: Fortunately, upon finding out the specific root causes of your condition, we can adapt and personalize the treatment. Therefore, it can never be determined merely from the “name tag” of the disease, whether it is curable or not. We have managed in this way to provide a cure in many cases considered “incurable” in some of the conventional medical literature. Each case has their own specific circumstances. Even in cases in which the disease has gone too far for it to be cured, there is still A LOT to do to prolong life and provide a better quality of life and do the best to either stop or slow the deterioration process. You can understand that someone who drinks diet coke all day, eats junk food or has a poor diet, sleeps little and stressed all day long will do much worse than someone, who keeps the right diet and eating habits, sleeps enough, maintains correct bodily posture, minimizes stress and is given the right treatment. The right treatment in such a case would be tracking the pathologies in the inner organs and treat them in order to bring the bodily organs and systems to their maximal function. By that, we would stop or significantly slow down the progress of the disease, as well as minimize its effect on the day-to-day life.

Question: Thank you, Dr. Kaholi. So, if I understand you correctly, it is all down to the findings of the diagnosis in my specific case. How do we start?

Question: Dr. Kaholi, please excuse us for the late hour, but our 7 years old son has just woken up from his sleep and he has an intolerable itch….. the area looks really red (photo attached) …. Is there a reason for concern?
Answer: Good evening. There is no need to be alarmed. It is a common phenomenon. As long as the breath is regular with no breathing difficulty, there is no need for concern. He probably perspired during sleep, and this caused the reaction.

Therefore, first of all, help him into a quick cooling shower. Soap his skin in order to release the histamine as much as possible, but be gentle with it, so as not to aggravate the area and make the child even more uncomfortable.

Then, immediately take a few small towels, dip them in lukewarm tap water, squeeze out the water and apply them on the itching area. See that the water is cooling the areas. Touching the skin, you will notice that it emits a lot of heat, but while applying the towels, make sure that the child does not get cold. Start with applying the wet towels only on the red areas for 20 minutes, and every 5 minutes shake the towels in order to cool them again.

Afterwards, apply a lot of talcum on the itching area, but better still – use potato flour, which does the job just the same and is healthier.

Question: Hi, Dr. Kaholi. My 6 years old boy has been running a fever for 2 days now, and he is not getting better. I took him yesterday morning to the pediatrician, and he prescribed me a pill to reduce the fever. I have already given (the boy) four paracetamol pills, but the fever is not going down. What do I need to do? Please tell me, doctor. I am very anxious and worried
Answer: Good evening. First, there is no need to be stressed. It is only the second day of fever, so this has not been going on for a long time. I suggest calming down, as this will also help the child to relax.

Secondly, if the fever does not rise about 40 degrees (Celsius), it is another reason not to get alarmed. The boy is 6 years old, usually healthy and in the past, when I examined him, there were no internal pathologies. Besides a cold here and there, usually in the winter and some diarrhea due to some spoiled food, there were never any complaints, and he also recovered from these very easily.

Before taking any medicine, there has to be first a proper diagnosis as to what happened, and why did the body develop this fever. Fever is a symptom, never the source of the problem. Moreover, fever is a natural response of the body, to deal with whatever pathology is involved. Therefore, simply reducing the fever does not address the initial problem, and this is why the fever did not go down until now. Certain pills might even harm the digestive system, which can be an initial cause for fever in the first place. Only by precisely identifying the root cause of the fever, can the treatment be efficient and successful.

When the body naturally raises its temperature, it actually helps the system to overcome microbes. Therefore, in a case like this with all the considerations I mentioned above, it might be counter-productive to merely suppress the natural bodily process of healing. It is not wintertime now, and from past acquaintance with you and your son, it might be another gut infection. How were his bowel movements in the past couple of days?
Read More
Question: Wow, I did not think about that! I did not make the connection! The doctor did not mention anything about it. The boy has been indeed complaining of stomachaches for the last 3 days, and he even has diarrhea.
Answer: I see. A few weeks back, you purchased from us our home herbal “first-aid” kit. Inside, you will find the formula called “Stomavil” (SEE, PHARMA – click), which is a natural first-aid tool for reducing stomach pain and easing diarrhea. When the diarrhea stops and the fever eases as well, it will confirm that the source of the problem was indeed an acute infection in the gut.

In the meantime, there are four ways to naturally and safely reduce high fever: First, take off any access cloths the boy is wearing. Second, as it is summer now, run for him a lukewarm bath for about 15 minutes – just make sure he is not cold. Third, you can take a small towel, dip it in cool tap water (not icy), squeeze the water out, and apply it on his forehead. Fourth, take him out for some fresh air and exposure to the sun, especially as it is not cold outside.

I would also suggest that the child sleeps near you in the night, to ascertain that his breath continues to be regular and without an obstacle.

Question: Thank you so much, doctor, I will certainly do that. Can I bring him tomorrow to the clinic?
Answer: Sure, you can come tomorrow during clinic hours. I suggest you come at lunchtime, sometime between 13.00 – 15.00 hours, and I will see him without the need for a prior appointment.

Question: Thank you so much, doctor.
Answer: Please try not to worry. Tomorrow I will check him, and see what further treatment is needed. All will be checked and treated.

Question: Hello, Dr. Kaholi. I was referred to you by (name…), who highly recommended you. My husband has been diabetic for the last five years, and lately his condition has been deteriorating a lot. His sugar levels are very high (in between 250-400 when we check during the day). He started with one pill and now he takes three pills and nothing is helping. The professor, a diabetes expert, who has been treating him since the diabetes was discovered, recommended he should start with injections, but my husband firmly objects to that. The professor also said that it is not curable, just manageable. We would like to hear your opinion, thank you.
Answer: According to my clinical experience, it is treatable, and my advice would be to start with it as soon as possible, because through the years the pancreas just got weaker and weaker. The high level of sugar despite the pills show that the pancreas is in a dire need to be helped.

It needs to be understood that the diabetes itself is not the disease, but a symptom of the existing pathology. Too high or too low sugar blood levels are an indication of an internal metabolic disorder that needs to be diagnosed. Only a precise diagnosis of the kind of metabolic disorder is at hand, can bring about an efficient treatment of your husband. Without a precise understanding of the causes leading to your husband’s high levels of sugar, there is no way to offer an effective help. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a medicine or a course of treatment suited for everyone. By effectively addressing the root cause of the high blood sugar, we reduce this symptom as much a possible to within a healthier range and the know complications of diabetes are avoided. The pancreas is the organ with the greatest ability to rehabilitate itself, and it would be unfortunate not to try helping it to rehabilitate, as much as possible. Like your professor said, the pills are not aiming at curing the diabetes, and their action to squeeze out insulin from the sick pancreas and make it work much harder, weaken the pancreas to the point that eventually injections that bypass the pancreas are given.

Question: Ow my! I did not know these things before. So what do you suggest now? Is there something that can be done?
Answer: Most certainly, there are things that can be done. But we need to start from the beginning, the way we do with everyone in any condition. We need to first diagnose the precise pathological process causing the diabetes in your husband’s case, and this we do by undergoing PRAIUM diagnosis. When we have a precise diagnosis, we will be able to construct an effective and personalized treatment strategy.

One needs to understand that diabetes can be the result of several causes, and even the weakness of the pancreas is a result of these causes, not necessarily the source of the problem. With one person it can be an emotional stress causing excess secretion of cortisol and adrenalin from the adrenal glands; with the second person it could be a result of a liver inflammation (what is known as “an enlarged and fatty liver”); with the third person it could be the result of an improper diet and/or malabsorption in the gut causing a general weakness in the organs and their malfunction; and so on and so forth. From my clinical experience, I can also add that oftentimes it involves people who have lost some of the sweetness of life.

Question: Ow wow, I am amazed you are saying that. Six years ago, my mother-in-law, my husband’s mother, died. He was very attached to her and since then he has been neglecting himself. So what needs to be done for the diagnosis and later?
Answer: We will be sending you an e-mail with the attached questionnaire to be filled out by your husband. The questionnaire is very detailed, like a “scan” of all bodily systems. When he completes filling the questionnaire, please send it to us by a return mail return together with your husband’s last blood work. Then, we will set up a time for a consultation appointment either in my clinic or through Zoom if you are not able to arrive. If needed, I can also do a home visit. According to the overall results, you will be informed about the offered treatment strategy adapted to your husband’s specific case.

Question: This is great – he will be so happy to know that there is hope. I will immediately text you our e-mail address, and I hope we will succeed.
Answer: Thank you. Only a personalized treatment plan adapted for each and every patient has a great chance to succeed. I treated successfully thousands of diabetics, but every case is a different one and the treatment is not identical. Each patient and his/her circumstances, such as his/her personal and medical history, lifestyle, nutrition habits, family circumstances, type of work, etc. One cannot infer from one case to another and provide the same treatment to all. I will be happy to assist your husband and do my very best for him. Good night

Subject 7

Good morning. Thank you for the update, and I am very pleased you are better already.

As for your daughter, I strongly recommend dealing with this problem seriously, thoroughly and from the root. Your daughter is an adolescent, and it would not do her any good to try and ignore the problem, or to “sweep it under the carpet” so to speak. Medication might induce a period, but then we have not dealt with the causes of the problem, while the initial pathology causing the absence of the period gets worse as time goes on with no diagnosis and no treatment.  

Moreover, it is not logical that your daughter has a menstrual disorder, yet her blood tests are “all in order”. We could go through the test results and detect in it the causes for the disorder in your daughter’s case. There could be a number of possible causes, such as general weakness, a hormonal problem, blood deficiency, protein and/or fat deficiency, stress factors, etc. Any of these can be detected in a blood test provided the right values were checked and a proper cross checking has been performed.

I suggest your daughter fills out our questionnaire, and sends it back to my assistant, together with the blood test results. If important values are missing from the test to rule out possibilities or affirm them, you can ask your doctor to check them further. According to the findings of the overall diagnosis, including a consultation in my clinic or via Zoom if you are not able to arrive to the clinic, we will inform you as to our recommended personalized treatment strategy for your daughter.
