My fifth grade daughter can fit into my shoes now. Much more developed than I was at her age, Kyra's ten year old body is already getting curvy, and I can sense that she is nearing her transition into puberty. I recently came home from one of my 'Fertile Soul' retreats to find her doing nightly sit-ups. I was appalled that she was already trying to hide the tiny bulge of her developing belly. I had to re-teach her, just as I teach my patients, that our female bellies are supposed to be fuller, and weren't meant to be flat like men's stomachs. I had to teach her how to breathe into her belly again, which she had innately known from her first breath until she and her friends started to stick out their chests, suck in their stomachs, and model themselves after their Brittany Spears-like roll models.

             Not that my role models were all that voluptuous either; remember Twiggy? We baby boomers were so detached from our female essence that we couldn't accept our inherent femaleness, either. We became depressed when we couldn't reach the outward appearance to which we aspired; we developed fibroids, endometriosis, infertility, and eating disorders. I remember the day I got my first period. I saw red and after the initial panic subsided, I cried, stuffed some toilet paper in, and pretended it didn't happen. I knew this meant I was becoming a woman, and I wasn't ready to enter the shameful world of breasts, bellies, and hips. I exercised more, ate less, and still my body defied my attempts to control it and developed ever so slightly more. I could only cope with my new maturity by acting sexual; not at all in line with my Scandinavian Lutheran upbringing. Add a little more shame, poor diet, cigarettes, alcohol, and the stress of medical school, and voila – premature ovarian failure. My body turned against my own reproductive system. I treat many women like myself, with endometriosis, polycystic ovaries, fibroid tumors, and a multitude of hormonal and emotional issues which prevent the full expression of their fertility.

 Perhaps how we view ourselves as women needs to change so that our reproductive health can improve. In a recent Calvin Klein add, you almost can't tell the gender difference between the emaciated female model and her male counterpart. What happened to the days when women celebrated their reproductive coming of age? I am reminded of the Renaissance paintings picturing naked large bellied, large hipped women surrounded by cherubs, and I'm certain those models didn't cry when they first saw their own blood. There was a time when our menstruation was celebrated as the root of all life. It was precisely a woman's reproductive essence that made her so powerful; in fact, according to The TaoTe Ching,

 'The Doorway of the Mysterious Female is the base from which Heaven and Earth sprang.'

 In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the first menstruation is seen as a gift from the heart which houses our spirit, to the uterus. The gift that pronounces, 'You have entered sacred womanhood. Your body is now in tune with the tides of the moon, and with nature. You may now produce life.'  A woman who received these messages respected herself and honored her childbearing potential. She took care of her reproductive essence. She listened to the deeper messages of her body: how much sleep she required, what kind of foods her body needed, and how she was to express her spirit in the world. When her childbearing years were over, the uterus bestowed its gift of life blood back to the heart. Menopause represented a transition into a woman's wisdom, when she became revered by society.

 TCM views the body, mind, and spirit as inseparable from each other, and ultimately from nature. As a part of the natural world, we abide by the same laws as the rest of the living universe. Just as atoms consist of protons and electrons, everything else is composed of opposing positive and negative forces, yin and yang. Yin energies are feminine - quiet, subdued, dark, and internal. Yang energies are masculine – loud, bright, energetic, and external. Neither yin nor yang is preferable, yet in our society the yang attributes are accorded far more worth. We are not encouraged to go within and care for ourselves. Melancholy moods are not allowed, and a sense of quiet is rarely achieved. Most women's physiologies desire a time of rest and turning within every month. Yet we are rewarded for pretending we don't menstruate. Use a tampon, take a Midol, and go to work. In fact, then go grocery shopping, and then to the gym. Make dinner afterwards, too. Our lifestyles scream for a break. Yet we are encouraged to go, go, go; beyond stress, beyond fatigue, beyond our inner sense of knowing. We have become too yang, and this has created a disparity in our health and in the world. The physical consequences of this imbalance cause us to enter puberty earlier, develop endocrine ailments, fertility disorders, and psychic conflicts all through our reproductive lives.

 The demands of our externally focused, fast paced lifestyle don't encourage us to live or eat healthfully, which underlies the development of most modern day disorders. Our bodies begin by sending us subtle signals like migraine headaches and back spasms, and when we don't pay attention to the faint messages, they will become more obvious, like diabetes, cancer and heart disease.

Chinese medicine views diet as the foundation of our health and well-being. Yet most of us in the West devour a quick snack for taste and instant energy; not for what our bodies truly need. Most of us know what our bodies need; we just haven't been encouraged to pay attention. We are too frantic to listen to our internal messages. A cup of coffee and a donut is easier than a spinach omelet with a side of fruit. Yet knowledge about health isn't limited to ancient Chinese secrets; dietary wisdom is a part of our past, too. In fact, it is almost instinctual when we pay attention. Here are some examples:

 - Our grandmothers recognized that Chicken soup was good for a cold. They knew our bodies became so depleted from fighting germs, that the bone marrow (from which blood cells are produced) deeply replenished our immunity.

- When we have a sore throat we are inherently drawn to warm liquids like hot lemon with honey.

- Warm milk before bed contains L-tryptophan, which helps us to relax and sleep better.

- People with liver disease develop an aversion to fried foods. The body knows that the liver is under stress, and can't break down fats.

 We all have access to dietary insight when we listen to the deeper parts of our beings that truly know what we need. At our retreats, women are guided to reestablish their mind-body communication and tune in to their deeper wisdom; improving their fertility, general health, and emotional well-being.

 I choose to pay attention to the wisdom of my ancestors and change the patterns of the messages that aren't congruent with health. Kyra is learning to eat when she is hungry, and to pay attention to what her body truly needs. And when she gets her period, we are going to celebrate. We will buy fancy red underwear; we will go outside to look at the sky and see what phase the moon is in; I will teach her to rest, and to honor the needs of her sacred body.

Chinese medicine is a prehistoric Chinese method of curing soreness and healing various ailments by inserting needles into numerous components with the system. In accordance with Chinese philosophy, ailment and soreness occur as a result of an imbalance among two primary forces of nature recognized as yin and yang. The Chinese believe that chinese medicine refreshes this balance. Specialists known as acupuncturists insert razor sharp needles at a single place or any of numerous precise factors together the meridians. Insertion in the needles produces a sharp pinching experiencing. This experiencing quickly fades away and is replaced by occasional tingling or perhaps a sense of lack of sensation, heaviness, or soreness although the needles are in location.

Traditional Chinese medicine is used to help remedy soreness and also to treat a range of conditions, which includes arthritis, asthma, migraine, ulcers, eye ailments, plus some mental illnesses. It is also thought to support treat men and women with their infertility complications.

Traditional Chinese medicine aids the nerves and muscles with the body to unwind. Researchers have suggested 3 main assumptions for how chinese medicine will perform. A single assumption proposes that the meridians in place of truth exists and are connected towards the body’s organs in a special way. Based on this theory, acupuncture boosts activity alongside the meridians and like a consequence it manipulates the purpose in the organs. Researchers also believe that chinese medicine functions in any situation in element, by improving the brain’s production of normal discomfort killers known as endorphins. And in addition they theorize that traditional chinese medicine may perhaps perform all of the way through the nervous system by producing signals that break off discomfort messages sent towards the brain.

Folks who will be great contenders for attempting chinese medicine are those that have complications with infertility for example damaged fallopian tubes or stress associated infertility. Even though it isn't actually tested that stress can cause infertility, but relaxation is a particular medication for infertility. Both adult males and ladies with infertility will be persuaded to undertake chinese medicine in adding collectively with their common medical remedy. In about 10 visits with a licensed and experienced acupuncture support provider, you are going to be able to conclude if it would be able to assistance you with you infertility complications.

There is a huge misconception that women are diagnosed with being infertile much more than men are. The truth is in fact that men and women share the onus of infertility almost equally. Another misconception is that most infertile couples do not achieve success in overcoming their initial infertile diagnosis. Truth be told, over 70% of all couples initially diagnosed as being infertile eventually will have a child. So where do all these misconceptions come from, we would like to think that in most cases it's harder for men to be labled 'infertile' than it might be for women, so hence men being infertile is just not discussed as much. There are people who might argue this point and rightfully so, after all data on this subject is subjective.

What might be some causes for infertility in men and women ? Let's start with some basic known causes for both male and females. Lack of exercise, stress, age, smoking, substance abuse, exposure to toxins in the environment, and diet can alter the balance between couples that may normally be fertile. Infection accounts for almost half of the problems that affect men.

Female infertility is more complex and may take longer to diagnose, but with complexity come more solutions. An embryo's viability is determined by its internal environment and the external one that surrounds it to carry it through the various stages of development.   Couples that combine several safe approaches, which may include natural diets or supplements, acupuncture, homeopathic remedies and an exercise regime coupled with a medical or conventional plan have a better chance to begin their families.

The most successful approach for couples to overcome their infertility is to take the journey together as a team.  Have a checklist ready when researching fertility clinics or centers. Begin with these issues:

1) Be sure that initial diagnosis include both male and female evaluations. 
2) Does your doctor support a multi-pronged plan that may include conventional and alternative treatments? Clinics should not offer obsolete or out-of-date procedures.
3) Beware of treatments that have not been verified or properly tested. Do not submit to prototype treatments.
4) Find a clinic near you. Look regionally unless your issue warrants a specialized or obscure problem.
5) Clinics that offer emotional support services or referrals are ideal.
6) Weigh the success rates of the clinics against their sizes. You may prefer a smaller clinic with high rates of success.  However, larger clinics with efficient results may offer more options than smaller ones.  Gauge your particular circumstances, and find the best fit.

The word couple means what it sounds like 'two persons considered as joined together', the key word is 'together'. Your journey to have a child must be a collaborative one with whom ever is involved. It will make your experience more meaningful and after all over 70% of all couples diagnosed with being infertile, eventually do have their dreams come true.

One of the most amusing books I have read on infertility is: A Few Good Eggs : Two Chicks Dish on Overcoming the Insanity of Infertility by Julie Vargo and Maureen Regan.

The book is targetted towards infertile women living in the US, and is written in the currently fashionable 'chick-lit' style. It's amusingly written; and is a breath of fresh air , if you are the sort of person who finds a sense of humour helps you cope better with infertility.

The book has lots of Top-10 lists, and here's their list of Top Ten Tips for Facing Infertility.

#  10 Tips for Facing Infertility
1. Keep reminding yourself that you are not alone.
2. Realize that dealing with infertility is an all-consuming process.
3. Stay calm.
4. Remind yourself you are not a failure if a procedure doesn't work.
5. Have a sense of humor about this - even if it doesn't seem at all funny
right now.
6. Do your research. Then do some more.
7. Listen to your body and your inner self. If you really listen you will
learn those two are rarely wrong.
8. Don't rule anything out - from antibiotics to acupuncture and from
yoga headstands to standing on your head during sex.
9. Find the right doctor.
10.Don't get angry at your partner for not nurturing you - he is hurting
and confused, too.

Here are my comments about this list.

1. Keep reminding yourself that you are not alone.

One of the major problems with infertility is the social and emotional isolation it causes. It seems that everyone around you is having babies and you are the only one who cannot have them ! Moreover, there is little social support , and people can be thoughtless and unkind. However, remember that you are in this together with your partner - and you can love and support each other. Millions of other couples are also fighting the same battle - and you can support each other.

2. Realize that dealing with infertility is an all-consuming process.

Many infertile couples are amazed when they find how obsessed they become with tracking their fertility - and how their desire to have a baby seems to become the central focus of their life.

3. Stay calm.

This can be hard to do , especially at certain times : for example, when your period had just started; your friend has just told you she's pregnant again; the latest treatment which seemed to be going so well has failed; and it seems that your partner does not care or understand. Don't make a bad situation worse by losing your calm. If you can weather this, you will emerge a much stronger and better person !

4. Remind yourself you are not a failure if a procedure doesn't work.

The failure of a procedure does NOT mean you are a failure ! When the embryos transferred during an IVF cycle fail to implant, many women feel that their uterus is defective and has 'rejected' the embryos. Remember that Nature is not efficient at making babies - and the odds are always going to be against you in each month, so you need to be patient. Have realistic expectations,  and treat this as a war , not just a battle. Even if the procedure fails, you have peace of mind you tried your best - and failed procedures also provide the doctor with useful information which he can use to fine-tune your next treatment cycle, bringing you closer to your goal.

5. Have a sense of humor about this - even if it doesn't seem at all funny  right now.

A sense of humour is often the only thing which help you keep your sanity ! Hang on to this - it will help you cope with whatever trials and tribulations you may have to deal with !

6. Do your research. Then do some more.

You can never know too much. While the endpoint is not to become an IVF specialist ( though you will find that you often know much more about infertility than your GP or family physician, many of whom are quite clueless about infertility), you need to become an expert on your problem, so you have peace of mind you did your best, and didn't leave any stone unturned.

7. Listen to your body and your inner self. If you really listen you will   learn - those two are rarely wrong.

This is good advise, whether you are infertile or not ! However, be careful not to fall into the trap of listening only to your body - and not listening to your doctor ! Find the right balance between the inner wisdom of the body and the outer wisdom of medical science.

8. Don't rule anything out - from antibiotics to acupuncture and from  yoga headstands to standing on your head during sex.

Keeping an open mind is a good idea - but it shouldn't be so open that everything in it falls out either ! It's fine to use yourself as a guinea pig, if that's what you want to do. Take an objective approach, and treat your experiences as a scientific experiment ( on yourself). Document all your results, so that you can learn from them.

9. Find the right doctor.

While everyone knows how important it is to find Dr Right, it can be extremely hard to do this in real life ! Often you are trapped by the healthcare system you find yourself in - or you don't know how to judge your doctor's competence and abilities.

10.Don't get angry at your partner for not nurturing you - he is hurting  and confused, too.

Don't make a bad situation worse by using your partner as a punching bag. Being infertile is bad enough - but as long as you can love and support each other, you'll find it much easier to deal with. Love divides the misery, and any couple who can weather the crisis of infertility will find that their marriage is much more resilient than the ordinary marriage. It is true that all Men are from Mars , not just your husband ! The sooner you accept this, the easier it will be for both of you. From his point of view, his priority is to work so that he can earn the money you need to be able to afford infertility treatment ! Providing emotional support comes a distant second in his brain, so please be charitable !

Everyone has the right to become pregnant, enjoy a natural pregnancy, and a happy birth naturally. It is the most enjoyable moment of your life, and to be able to give your baby the best possible start in life, drug free, what more could you ask for?

Finding out that either you or your partner is infertile, or sub-fertile, can be a traumatic experience. One or both of you may experience feelings of blame, anger, denial, guilt, self-pity or jealously, this may place stress on your relationship.

Infertility is a common, devastating condition. It causes enormous heartache to those so effected. Treatment is often invasive and frequently stressful, time consuming and expensive.

Age is not the only reason why individuals experience infertility. Apart from age-related factors, the increased probability of infertility is linked to the following factors:

Sexually transmitted diseases
Multiple sexual partners (heightens the risk of STDs)
History of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
History of orchitis or epididymitis in males
Mumps in men
Varicocele in men
A medical history involving DES exposure (women or men)
Female eating disorders (women)
Anovulatory menstrual cycles
Endometriosis
Uterus defects (myomas) or cervical blockage
Long-term or chronic illness like diabetes

Men are often shocked to discover that difficulties in having a baby are due to reproductive problems on the male side also.

It is estimated that in Australia, male infertility affects about one in every 20 men. Despite popular opinion that infertility is usually due to female (gynaecological) problems, in about one in five infertile couples, there are problems relating to the male.

Infertility statistics:

One in six couples is infertile. In 40 per cent of cases the problem rests with the male, in 40 per cent with the female, ten per cent with both partners, and in a further ten per cent of cases, the cause is unknown.

Fertility problems strike one in three women over 35.

One in 25 males has a low sperm count and one in 35 is sterile.

For healthy couples in their twenties having regular unprotected sex, the chance of becoming pregnant each month is 25 per cent.

The chance of conceiving in an IVF cycle is on average around 20 per cent (but varies due to individual circumstances).

More than one per cent of births in Australia involve the use of assisted reproductive technologies.

Since IVF is still a relatively young science, long-term health risks for women or their children cannot be definitively ruled out. IVF involves surgical procedures (for egg collection, or laparoscopy) where local or general anaesthetics are used. There are slight risks associated with these medical treatments, such as infection and bleeding.

Intrauterine insemination (IUI), is a procedure in which washed sperm is inserted directly into the uterus via a catheter through the cervix. One of the major side effects of having an IUI is the increased risk of having multiples. Because most IUI's are done in conjunction with the woman taking ovarian stimulating drugs, such as Clomid, the number of eggs that are released during ovulation is not controlled. Problems with ovulation, account for most infertility in women. Signs of problems with ovulation include irregular menstrual periods or no periods.

Clomid can have adverse side effects, such as mood swings, headaches, fatigue, and breast tenderness. In approximately 30% of women taking Clomid, their cervical mucus will become hostile to sperm, thereby preventing conception.

Natural Pregnancy is about making educated choices to ensure a safe, healthy and natural pregnancy by avoiding chemicals, toxins and unnecessary prenatal testing, and simultaneously maximizing prenatal nutrition, fitness and peace. Excellent nutrition for pregnant women includes not just vital foodstuffs and nourishing herbal infusions, but also pure water and air, abundant light, loving and respectful relationships, beauty and harmony in daily life, and joyous thoughts.

There are no easy answers when it comes to questions about fertility and infertility, but traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has some answers that are slowly gaining acceptance in Western culture. Traditional Chinese medicine makes use of herbs, acupuncture, massage, meditation and exercise. Acupuncture for infertility has been used for many centuries, but has taken on special emphasis now that the cases of infertility are on the rise.

Chinese medicine provides more effective approach than that the approach that has been taken in the West to address the problem.

There are certain herbs which can eliminate the need for all those uncomfortable, invasive tests that are so often part of the infertility diagnosis process. Herbs help to strengthen and nourish the organs and systems responsible for the intricate process of successful conception, in addition to promoting a general feeling of well-being, which is crucial before, during and after pregnancy, so you can look after yourself and baby and enjoy your life together naturally.

So how exactly can acupuncture for fertility help you? Is it an effective method in encouraging pregnancy? While acupuncture is already considered an established therapeutic procedure, it depends on your condition if it will help cure your infertility.

What is acupuncture?
To help you understand better the limitations of acupuncture and how it can help you, you should first learn what it is. Commonly known as a treatment method which uses fine needles, acupuncture targets specific points in the body in order to encourage healing.

By targeting correct points, the body can begin its own natural healing process. For example, acupuncture can be used to increase the secretion of the neurochemical called endorphin. This is an effective way of curing pain and inflammations.

How can it help you?
So acupuncture is definitely a tested method for other disorders and diseases. But the question remains, will it help you become pregnant? Yes, it can help by balancing the hormonal levels in your body. If for example your infertility is caused by hypothyroidism, acupuncture can help cure the condition.

Also, by targeting specific points in your body, acupuncture can encourage better blood flow. Your acupuncturist can specifically target increase blood flow in your endometrium. This will result in the formation of better lining and make fertilization easier.

When should treatment begin?
With medications, timing is important. This is also true for therapeutic treatments like acupuncture. So when should you begin acupuncture for fertility? Normally, it should begin around four months before making attempts to get pregnant such us undergoing In Vitro Fertilization treatment.

But what if you already successfully became pregnant? Do you still need to continue acupuncture treatment? Of course you can and this can help prevent miscarriage. However, it should be done by a professional and continue only until the third month.

What are the risks involved?
Of course, there are also risks involved. Once you are already pregnant, there are many parts in your body that your acupuncturist must avoid. If these points are mistakenly targeted by needles, there is a possibility for miscarriage. If you are considering acupuncture for infertility, you should only hire a professional.

So do you find acupuncture for fertility quit an enticing idea? If you want to be certain if the treatment is right for you, it is always best to check with your family doctor. You may also ask your physician to supervise you throughout the treatment.

While the idea of putting a family together, or bringing a child into a family unit, is one of the most exciting decisions in the world, it is also one of the most overwhelming decisions in the world. It is inescapable. Just consider what you have to do mentally to get ready. What kind of parent do you want to be? How exactly are you going to discipline your child? What is the best school district? Then, turn over the rock of what it is to pay for a child. The initial costs, even, will run from clothes that will will not fit in another month, food, diapers, wipes, cribs, strollers, car seats, and diapers again. That will be nothing to compared to tuition prices when your child is ready to go off to college. You might as well by a whole other house. The house, too, is a consideration, is it big enough for another person? Now, what about the process? What if conceiving is a challenge? If that is the case, what you do not want to do is rule out all your options, and there are certainly a lot of them. So, ever think about acupuncture for fertility?

We know what you are imagining, a face full of needles, but there is more to it.

However, if you are looking into acupuncture for fertility, you will find out that no acupuncture needles will be going into your face.

Naturally, you will find out that those acupuncture needles are going to need to go toward the location of conception.

Simmer down though, if this was going to hurt, we would not recommend it.

The use of acupuncture is one of the oldest manners of treatment our world probably has to offer. It is essentially the precise placement and insertion of needles no thicker than piano wire into specific order on someone's body. When used for fertility, the placement improves blood flow to the ovaries, allowing for a better stimulated environment for the act of conception.

They are relatively painless insertions as well, and the sensation, as repeated, becomes more and more tolerable.

How about we circle back around to what we were first discussing though. One needs to understand that having a child is one of the most daunting experiences of any individual's life. Yet, it is, without question, one of the most rewarding experiences of any individual's life. That means if one is going to start getting serious about improving their chances of conceiving, they need to look at all the options for improved fertility and there are a bunch. For example, medical treatments can be very effective, but also extremely expensive ranging into the tens of thousands of dollars. Therefore, there is no reason not to investigate the uses of acupuncture for fertility more when it is both cost effective and widely recommended. That said, reach out to your local physician today and start making yourself some appointments!

One of the most exhilarating times in the life of a couple is having a newborn. The actual gestation of the lady is definitely an exceptionally happy and joyful process for partners, while they try to give and take something from the marriage, from the conception to birth. Unfortunately, a number of husbands and wives will never get to experience this bliss and several will go through a roller coaster journey over the 9 months of childbearing due to a string of pregnancy problems. These ladies ought to consult fertility support since the treatment for infertility can improve the stickiness of their pregnancies and their whole pregnancy experience.

The price and process of clinical and all-natural treatment for infertility may differ substantially. Though clinical remedy tend to be surgical, some couples do choose it because the treatment takes a shorter time. Overall, natural infertility treatment can be more potent because it addresses all the elements of infertility while clinical treatment solutions are effective at just dealing with just one issue at any given time.

Exactly what influences Fertility?

Fertility refers to the ability to get pregnant. Having a baby with no medical intervention can be done  if you are fertile. Then again, just 80% of couples who are fertile and trying to conceive will succeed in one year of trying while the remaining of the partners take a more lengthy time to be successful. Fertility is necessary in affecting your ability to get pregnant, though you will also find several other elements that will influence your capability to fall pregnant. For any woman, the ova that is introduced during ovulation must be healthy, entire and available for fertilization. Likewise, a guy has to be fertile by having the capacity to produce fit and strong sperm to fertilize the egg cell.

The basics associated with natural treatment for infertility requires improving your simple lifestyle to include specific foods and stumulating and non-invasive techniques to stimulate your reproductive system and balance your body's hormones, bloodstream and energy flow. Fertility natural herbs are frequently used for increasing fertility.. Herbal formulas is a really effective kind of natural treatment for infertility and have been around for thousand of years.Acupuncture for fertility could also be incorporated in the treatment for infertility to give a great added supercharge towards increasing fertility.

There are other techniques improve chances of getting pregnant naturally, apart from clinical treatment for infertility. The most crucial and straightforward way is to keep track of the times that you are most fertile. To improve the likelihood of conceiving a child, partners should engage in sex a few days just before and up to the day the woman is ovulating.
Charting a girl's ovulation may appear extremely tricky, however it is actually quite simple to track.You can find ovulation products that will show once the woman is fertile. On the other hand, the lady can use a chart and basal body thermometer for measuring her basal body temperature on a daily basis.. In addition, the woman may also monitor the differences in her vagina discharge.

Yet another thing to take into account in increasing the chances for conception is by knowing the proper position during lovemaking  Sex positions like sitting, standing or girl-on-top can lead to sperm leaking out.

4. sweating with no exertion
5. Abdominal pain during/after menstruation
6. Period is thin and volume is small
7. Etc.

III. Causes
1. Hot food
When foods enter our stomach, they are divided to 2 components, qi and materials. prolonged intake of hot food causes dryness in the stomach and deplete the fluid of the spleen, leading to abnormal function of the circulatory system in moving qi, resulting in deficiency of qi causing menstrual cramp and pain as the period becomes scanty.

2. Unhealthy diet
A typical American diet is yang in nature, intake of high amount of unsaturated fat and tran fat encourage the rise to the excessive yang pathogen that blocks the spleen function in assisting lung in qi transportation.
