Sarcoma, several ideas IV

As sarcoma seemingly has general accent on Dampness energy, considering emotional roots 
this means anxiety.
This can be actual anxiety constantly generated by one's surrounding or life circumstances,
or excess anxiety in one's emotional Constitution.
For cancer:
---Dryness as emotion is depression, grief, sadness
--- Cold is fear

Sarcoma, several ideas III

Related to the previous posts on sarcoma.
It seems to have more malignant nature than  cancer  having Dampnes energy for it's structure
and Dampness energy for the tissue it originates from, while cancer has it Cold and Dryness.

 On the other hand, Dampness being less Yin grade than Dryness and Cold (energies circulate clockwise), means sarcoma may be not so
strongly rooted in body as cancer.
This may give some clues on what to put accent in 
treatment:
--- accent on tumour-lysing protocols and work on main
Dampness energy.

General harmonization

This scheme is based on so-called "Vertical meridians of Triorigin Cylindrical Spiral system".

which is is rather complex however this version is simple enough to be used by

everyone.

Points are on median lines of 4 sides of every finger (thumbs allow most fundamental action).

Location is:

--- one divides each line in half, then again each half of the line in half

--- thus one gets 5 points shown on the pic

--- the lowest points marked brown are not used and acupuncture is done on 4 points marked green.

Thus points appear on equal distances to each other.

It's esential that 4 lines have different length

so there will be different distance between points for different lines (shown on the pic) but equal for points belonging to the same line.

View from both sides.

Treatment is done in order:

--- lines: 1-2-3-4 blue numbers

--- on every line - upwards 1-2-3-4 violet
numbers near points.
This sequence is for left thumb.

Best teratment is moxibustion: heating by moxa cigar
or incense stick, holding perpendicular to each point,
equal time of 15-20 sec, sometimes longer, for each.


This has works on deeper levels because of nature of system in use. 



This is possibly the only safe method of moxibustion for non-specialists in case of cancer,
however, see the Disclaimer.

Cancer and nutrition II

Recently there emerged a number of diets which use meat as essential part of.
Diets with raw meat have shown themselves as high-energy nitrition by responces of those 
who tried them.


Regarding cancer:
--- meat has recently been classified to be Yang  in particular in a book on nutrition according to 
5 elements
--- this means it can create Yang state of body which is essential to fight cancer (previous posts)
Macrobiotics classifies meat and fish into Yin and Yang according to it's principles.

  The problem is:
--- meat, even most healthy and free of preservatives/antibiotics etc, essentially cloggs energy paths
--- this means healing energy generated by acupuncture or other method has problem to reach cancer formations
--- this is true even for a broth
At early stages this may be not so important; anyway as battling cancer needs every bit of energy, this is
to be considered seriously.



Fish is much less (possibly 2-2.5 times) clogging energy paths, so it can be used in cancer diets.
Especially valuable for cancer patients appear to be shrimps:
--- their clogging of energy paths is very little, less than of fish
--- they are rich in essential elements, minerals as every sea product and very easily digested.
Another product with almost zero clogging is caviage, also strong Yang.
Eggs are also rather strong Yang.

Cancer and nutrition

The below is a system based on Yin-Yang approach the same for acupuncture,

the Macrobiotics system which divides all products into Yin and Yang group.

Basics and full list are in books of George Ozawa and the below short list of products is taken
from a book of Kasudzo Nishi.

Yang:

--- rice, millet, wheat, buckwheat, 

--- duck, turkey, pigeon, partrige, pheasant
--- goat's milk, Roquefort and Edam cheese

--- shrimp, lobster, sardines, herring, salmon and other fish with pink flesh; caviar, --- radish, turnip, onion, garlic, parsley, dill, carrots, chestnuts, apples, salt, eggs, strawberry, cherry.

Especially strong Yang products: backwheet, carrot, caviar

Yin:
corn (not American word for wheat!) , rye, barley, oats, oysters, carp, eel, trout,
pike, tuna, flounder, eggplant, tomatoes, potatoes,
beans, cucumbers, zucchini, mushrooms, beets, garlic,
cabbage, pork, beef, veal, lamb, chicken, kefir, yogurt,
sour cream, cottage cheese, butter, milk, cheese,
pineapple, orange, mandarin, banana, lemon, pear,
grapes, nuts, watermelon, plum, honey, sugar, zhity,
coffee, wine, beer.
Especially strong Yin of the listed: potatoes, tomatoes, yogurt, eggplants, grape.

One can see 2/3 of products are Yin.
This is very notable regarding to cancer:
--- it's main energy is Cold=Yin
--- energy for spreading i.e. Burn is secondary.
 
Macrobiotics founders directlly pointed on switching to fully Yang diet when battling cancer.
As there are different types of cancers for their location and behavour, this may be as:
--- generally it's adviced to have excesss of Yang meals
--- 100% Yang is difficult to achive as there are valuable products among strong Yin to support digestion 
like yogurt/kefir
--- this may indicate 85% maybe 90% Yang as top value
--- for very aggressive cancer with a lot of Yang energy,  Yang fraction my be reduced
--- anyway the lowest Yang percentage is to be no less 65%.

Sarcoma, several ideas II

That sarcoma is at least not less malignant than cancer is also illustrated by med. statistics available on the Web.
Energies for both (described earlier):
--- Dampness for structure and Dryness/Dampness for the tissue it's roots in, for sarcoma
--- Cold for structures (dense tumour) and Dryness for epithelium for cancer.

From Su-jok theory a disease to be life-threatening seemingly needs to have a grip on at least Practical controlling level i.e. Cold - Burn level:

http://acupunctureforcancerideas.blogspot.com/2010/08/cancers-grip.html

Less fundamental pairs like Heat-Dryness and Wind-Dampness seem not able  to create energy disruption severe enough to directly threaten life:
--- Heat-Dryness is ulcer formation, various spasms, degenerative conditions etc.
--- depression as emotional/mental Heat-Dryness disorder can lead to suicidal thoughts but it is not what directly causes critical damage of body like cancer does.
Cancer shows clear presence of Cold as structures and Burn as spreading.

Sarcoma spreading is also Burn energy, however the Cold energy is not clearly seen.

It seems sarcoma is more sophisticated disease for it's origin and mechanisms, going together with it's being less explored in general.

Anyway, since it is the same life-threatening, it is to be viewed as disorder on Cold-Burn level regarding this aspect for acupuncture schemes, and treated similar to cancer.
As for structural aspects, emphasis seems to be put on Dampness energy in connection to what organ
or tissue is has striken.

Sarcoma, several ideas

Cancer is known to grow from epithelium cells and sarcoma - from connective tissue,

both are controlled by energy of Dryness as commonly adopted among Su-jok medicine specialists.

There's been recent proposal connective tussue is controlled by Dampness energy not Dryness energy, which makes drastic change in understanding it's nature.

Cancer:

--- develops from epthitelium- Dryness energy

--- forms as dense tumour - Cold energy

Sarcoma:

--- develops from connective tissue - Dampness

--- it's body resembles a piece of meat or fish so being 

closer to soft type tumours

Soft tumours like lipomas, papillomas, formations like blood clots are related to

energy of Dampness.

So the nonsence term "benign malignant tumour" begins having a bit strange "taste".

In Creative energy circle, the above pic displayed in linear mode:
Wind--->Heat--->Burn--->Dampness--->Dryness--->Cold
it is seen Dryness and Cold are later gradations of Yin energies, while Dampness opens the Yin
energies:
Dampness--->Dryness--->Cold
This may mean sarcoma has more malicious nature than cancer as it shows malignant properties on energies (the same energy - Dampness) prior to cancer (Dryness and Cold), which in fact correspond to benign tumours.
(Cancer also uses general Dampness energy which controls lymphatic system it spreads through, but since metastasising starts).

If predictions on oncology diseases to rise in number in future come true, it may happen they may 
become more malicious and in particular sarcoma cases percentage may raise relative to 
cancer.
