I'm also a journalist. Sometimes I alert other reporters seeking specific information to it's locations. Read below for such an encounter, when I responded to a query (the term that journalists use for "Question/request for information") from the Help a Reporter Out (HARO) listserv:


Hi, Eva. My name is Yocheved (pronounced Yo - "ch" as in Bach - ved). I am an author and journalist plus a life coach certified in counseling skills. I help people learn to say "Yes" to can-do solutions for improving their mental and physical health. 


I noticed that you are looking for help with your article "Symptoms That Could Indicate A Parasite" 
My answer to you appears below. I ask a professional favor: if you decide to use my answers, please provide proper attribution to http://itsmycrisisandillcryifineedto.blogspot.com/, where I share excerpts from and updates to the EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge print and E- book http://tinyurl.com/mycrisis-book, and alert me to the link so I can share it with my social following. We have been cited in major media outlets such as Bustle and Spare Foot via HARO.
ANSWER:
One of the hardest things to slim down during a diet is the midriff. it always seems to bulge even if the dieter works out, skips carbs, lowers their daily calorie count and prays hard to lose the weight. What the person might not realize is that their spare tire isn't due to excess fat or a loss of muscle tone. It's the result of parasites colonized in the gut. They take up space, creating gas/bloating, slowing down the digestion of food (they want to snack on it first!) to create more bloating, and misery. ​Other symptoms in addition to midriff bloating include skin problems, dark under-eye circles, food sensitivities and apparent allergies, mental fog, headaches and ​constipation. Chief of Pathobiology at Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, Peter Weina, PhD, FACP proved that this is so. The problem is that most doctors fail to inform their patients of the problem, how it begins, and how to end it.

​People tend to swallow too-tiny-to-see parasites with the fish, meat, infested produce, and pork that they eat, not realizing that the parasites didn't die during the cleansing or cooking processes.

A few ways to get rid of such parasites, are explained in the​ EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge print and E- book.

All the best,


Yocheved Golani, Content provider and editor

Your Tendencies are NOT a Life Sentence

B'SD

18 Elul, 5778

One of the dominant themes of the EMPOWER Yourself to Cope with a Medical Challenge print and E- book is that you need not be locked into a psychological limitation. People are able to choose their attitudes and perspectives, even to get their grins back (my goal in helping you!) despite painful setbacks and situations.

I use the empowerment/ability to choose a new way of thinking and behaving model when I coach people, too.

Listen to the intention embedded in my response below. It was directed to someone who decided that she cannot behave in any manner other than the one to which she's psychologically inclined according to the Enneagram (a system for gaining insight into our instincts, motives, preferences, strengths, and weaknesses, plus those of other people):

"Being a specific number is not a life sentence. Some of us grow up. It is a matter of mastering the insights into our personalities, developing the character/maturity to stifle impulses so that we don't sabotage our self interests, and choosing to remain in the ideal level. It takes work and practice plus a sense of commitment. The Enneagram is a tool for growth, not an excuse for remaining stuck."

Everything that I do in life involves making a choice that will serve my needs, including my physical and mental health. All of us need to do that. It's called "maturity."






Smile as you and whomever you share the book with grow insightful and emotionally stronger together. 

Nurture the development of your insights into the gamut of emotions when someone is ill. 

Learn how to calm down and to stay that way longer than before.

When things go Wrong in Your Gut

B'SD

16 Elul, 5778

Now and then people let me know of their medical problems, and ask me for solutions. I tend to recommend that they consult appropriate doctors. I also mention natural alternatives that might work, too.


Sometimes, things go wrong in our guts.


One of my dear friends has a gluten intolerance problem, but her doctors receive negative results to tests for the celiac disease problem. She also doesn't have IBS, Irritable Bowel Syndrome. So, we discussed NCGS. 

The initials stand for Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity.  Here's a National Center for Biotechnology Information report on the problem. It's written for researchers, but read slowly and review the message. You'll understand it in a bit.

Read more about NCGS here.

There are plenty of grains that people with the above problems can still enjoy. They include amaranth, buckwheat, rice (black, brown, white, and wild), millet, quinoa, sorghum, and teff. If you eat oats, make sure that they're labeled Gluten Free. Oat must be specially bred to grow without gluten (It's not actually absent, it's simply so low that the levels qualify for "zero-level / gluten free" status).

A simple online search can turn up lots of helpful information such as:
