More on Hemorrhoids and Diet

I work with people daily to help with their Hemorrhoids and counsel many on the importance of diet. Many have also heard me talk about the link between Hemorrhoids suffering and Candida. Personal experience as a Hemorrhoid sufferer, along with the thousands of customers I have helped, have led me to some conclusions. If you know anything about Candida, then you know that the problems of this yeast infection can be localized in the lower colon area, but also for many can be a manifestation of a broader problem called systemic Candida. At the worst stage of the progression of Candida as with systemic, Candida can eventually infect every organ of the body. And eventually, Candida can be the 'hidden' cause behind many other diseases and symptoms. Of course some of our customers already know about Candida and have drawn the link between their Hemorrhoids or colon issues and the likelihood of having a Candida infection. And still other customers come to us having maybe hearing of the word, but knowing little about it.

Candida as some may know, is fed by sugars. Also, yeast, refined carbs such as white rice, pasta, and sweets feed Candida. Avoidance of fruit, and juice is also recommended in the Candida diet. The Candida diet is well published on the Internet, repeated many times over and also found in many books on the Candida topic.
Some of the customers I have worked with who have some of the most stubborn cases of Hemorrhoids often share with me that they have a great diet starting with a high fiber intake daily, little or no red meat as with beef or pork, lots of vegetables, low carbs, oh, and a lot of fruit.

It is when someone shares with me that they eat a lot of fruit that the alarm bells go off in my head. It is through my vast experience in working with many people that I now have come to the conclusion that a lot of fruit consumption is detrimental to Hemorrhoids, or put another way contributes to ones' suffering. In fact, I now believe that fruit may even be worse than just pure sugar. Also in the news these days is evidence showing that high fructose corn sugar as found in sodas, may be worse and more promoting of diabetes that just sugar. The point of all this is that few would say that fruit is bad for anyone, but best in moderation and to be avoided if you are having an episode of Hemorrhoids and especially if you know that you suffer with a pronounced Candida infection.

Quick Tips for Hemorrhoids

The Quick Tips Guide for Easing Hemorrhoids Symptoms

A quick guide for easing Hemorrhoid suffering. Get on and off the pot!! Don't linger on the toilet. That may cut into your quiet time reading the Sunday comics, but never reading or staying too long on the throne is good advice for Hemorrhoid sufferers. Train yourself to have one bowel movement a day. Two is normal for many, but one daily is better for Hemorrhoid suffering. Move past issues of hard stools, constipation or diarrhea. Accomplish that through diet and avoid stool softeners, or laxatives.

Include more fiber in the diet, but avoid bran fiber. Do not overdo it with fiber supplements either since too much can aggravate your Hemorrhoids. Avoid alcohol, high carbs and sugar, and avoid fruit when trying to recover. Include whole grains in the diet, especially Amaranth, Barley, and Brown Rice. Cabbage is helpful for many. Avoid sitting for long periods but if you have a job where you must sit for long periods, try to stand up about every hour or so for five minutes just to keep circulation going.

Avoid junk food. Include a quality yogurt in your diet. Practice good hygiene and keep the anal area clean. Avoid the use of most topical remedies, many can prolong your suffering. Stay away from exercise that may strain the pelvic area when going through an episode of Hemorrhoids. Do not strain during bowel movements. Avoid sitz baths, coffee, dairy products or wheat if you even think they may contribute to your suffering with hemorrhoids.

Stuborn Internal Hemorrhoids

2009-04-14T17:55:00.000-07:00

Internal and External Hemorrhoids

If you suffer with external or internal Hemorrhoids, you may be looking for a solution. Well, look no further. We at Western Herbal have close to six years of helping customers overcome their Hemorrhoid pain, swelling and discomfort. 'Hemmies', as they are sometimes called can be an issue that impacts daily activities in a most negative way.

It actually is quite common for someone to suffer with internal and external Hemorrhoids concurrently. And, our own product Hem-Relief works well for any type of Hemorrhoid symptoms. Also common, is for someone to suffer with internal Hemorrhoids that only manifest themselves briefly during a bowel movement. Then, eventually they recede.

Recently, a customer called to say that he suffered with both internal and external Hemorrhoids. He went on to say that the Hem-Relief worked very well and quickly to chase away his pain, swelling and discomfort with his external Hemorrhoid. Yet, he had an internal Hemorrhoid that persisted, and it gave him no pain just mild discomfort. He was needing help with his internal Hemorrhoid, but pleased that our Hem-Relief helped with the worst of his suffering.

So I helped to get him sorted out and that involved some key advice pertaining to his specific diet and health profile as well as adding Complete Colon Care to his regimen. But I wanted to remark on how unique his situation was. In almost six years of helping people with their Hemorrhoids, my experience with solving customers issues dictates that this customer should have seen the same level of success with both his external and internal Hemorrhoids. Yet I have the answer I believe. Again, based on all this time of working with a multitude of customers, a stubborn case of internal Hemorrhoids comes back to a prevailing Candida issue. Complete Colon Care would be the recommended addition to a Hemorrhoid eradication regimen. Also, a good quality yogurt such as Activa may be helpful.

If you have a stubborn case of Hemorrhoids and are looking for answers, you could always try our knowledgeable staff at Western Herbal and Nutrition We welcome your questions, and feedback. Anyone who knows us knows that our customer service is excellent and responsive. We look forward to hearing from you. Our toll free number is 1-800-223-3036.

There are probably 50 more ways to misspell the word 'Hemorrhoids.' No matter how you spell the word, it really is a pain in the you-know-what. The discomfort, pain, and consequences of suffering can make most any activity a challenge. For those of you who have suffered with the worst symptoms of Hemorrhoids as I have, life and daily activities can become unbearable. Pain like I have never known in my life. When I first suffered with Hemorrhoids, options seemed few. My doctor was recommending surgery, and I had tried suppositories and creams for some three months with no benefit. And, I wondered if I could bleed to death as I was loosing half a pint to a pint of blood each bowel movement. If you suffer with bleeding Hemorrhoids, you have my complete sympathy and understanding. Nothing fun about it, messy, uncomfortable, embarrassing, and debilitating.

So here is the good news; no matter how you spell it, Hemorrhoids, or the English spelling Haemorrhoids, there is a natural way to overcome your pain and suffering. Western Herbal has a product called Hem-Relief that is second to none for overcoming your symptoms of suffering. Taken as a maintenance dose once you have chased away all of your discomfort, it works very well to diminish the frequency and severity of future episodes. Internal, external or thrombosed, it works equally well. Consider though that if you are a long-time sufferer, or have primary issues such as diarrhea, constipation, or hard stools, we can still help. For difficult cases or a pronounced Candida yeast problem, we recommend adding Complete Colon Care to your regimen in addition to the Hem-Relief. Hem-Relief is a natural herbal supplement shown to be very effective in chasing away the symptoms of Hemorrhoid suffering in quick fashion. We back our products with a progressive money-back guarantee, and superior customer service. Please feel free to contact our customer care department with your questions or if you need help placing an order. Our toll free number is 800-223-3036.

Help With Hemorrhoids

Heal Your Hemorrhoids

We have a product called Hem-Relief that really has no equal when it comes to solving the issue of Hemorrhoids. For Hemorrhoid pain, swelling and discomfort, itching, and seepage, internal or external Hemorrhoids, it works well for all problems. The margin of success with that product is 99% or better. But, nothing will shake my faith that the product should work for 100% everyone, all the time. The only reason it may not is if someone has what I term a 'primary issue.' The Hem-Relief while very effective is not a cure-all. If someone has been using topical creams or ointments, or suffers with constipation, hard stools, diarrhea, using certain prescription drugs such as pain killers, antibiotics, stool softeners or cholesterol drugs, they may need some additional help or advice to achieve 100% relief from Hemorrhoids. We have a customer service department that is dedicated to helping people who may fall into the 1% category of having slow or marginal results.

Here at Western Herbal we believe in our products and we are confident in our ability to help most anyone, even those who are in the extreme category of suffering. In almost six years of business, we have helped many people overcome their need for surgery. Hem-Relief has never failed to bring me complete relief in 48 hours or less. I should have had multiple surgeries for my problem, and only circumvented the need through taking Hem-Relief, without which I would have had to endure far more misery with Hemorrhoid suffering.

Some quick tips for easing suffering: keep the area clean. Do not strain during bowel movements, get on and off the pot quickly. Avoid stool softeners, as well as nuts, alcohol and high carbs such as sugar, potatoes, white rice, white bread and pastas. Focus instead on Whole grains and vegetables, and not too much fruit. Avoid sodas and candy when having an episode of Hemorrhoids. If you exercise, tailor your work-out regimen to avoid straining the pelvic area. Also, avoid friction to the area such as with stair climbers, or running machines.

Perhaps you are left with more questions on our products. Please do not hesitate to call our customer care department toll free at 800-223-3036. We are available 9:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. Pacific Standard Time Monday through Friday. We welcome your questions and feedback.

Hemorrhoid Problems and Vitamin Supplements

2009-03-25T18:01:00.000-07:00

The Right Vitamins for Hemorrhoids

Choosing the right vitamin supplement may be a little harder than you think. If you already take a multivitamin, that is a good start. But, are you taking the right vitamin supplement? Consider that if you are suffering with Hemorrhoids, your immune system is likely less than perfect. Your body needs support, and Hemorrhoids cause stress, and can relate to stress in our lives. For any affliction or health issue, ensuring you are getting good basic nutrition is essential to repair and recovery. Too many people miss this most basic premise by a mile.

If you picked up a basic vitamin supplement at your local pharmacy or grocery store, you need to be discriminating. Not all vitamins were created equal. Many of the vitamins that are less expensive use artificial vitamins. Studies have shown that artificial Vitamin A may be carcinogenic. Many brand name products also use artificial Vitamin E as well which is sourced from coal tar. Do not assume that all vitamin supplements use 'natural products.'

Your body needs more than minimum nutrition and instead you should be focused on optimum nutrition for total health. Taking a vitamin with 100% of the recommended minimum daily requirement is operating off the assumption your body can absorb nutrients at 100% efficiency. That can not possibly be the case for anyone. Plus, your body needs more than the minimum nutrition, especially if you are trying to overcome a health problem. Our bodies have never been more besieged from environmental toxins, stress, preservatives in our foods and typically poor diets.

So you need to choose a multi-vitamin that is balanced, has a good mineral content, and better yet includes a compliment of additional ingredients such as antioxidants. Also, look for a product that has a good balance of B vitamins which help with stress factors. If you shop at a local health food store, seek help from a sales associate to pick a good multivitamin. Don't settle for your bargain basement supplement, you may be wasting your money. Some of the recommended brands I suggest would be: Twinlabs, Solgar, Now, or Jarrow Formulas.

Starting with a good multivitamin is the first place to start for optimum health. A very basic suggestion would be to include additional Vitamin C, and also Calcium Citrate with Magnesium, as you would find it hard to meet the needs of Vitamin C and Calcium in a single multivitamin tablet or capsule. There is no such thing as a multivitamin supplement that can possibly meet all your nutritional needs. But picking a good one with a brand name that formulates their products well is an excellent start. One more thing; in choosing a progressive multivitamin, be sure to pick a product that has a low iron content. Any supplement that has iron content approaching 100% of the RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance), may not be safe. Besides being a common source of poisoning in infants and small children, current studies suggest that even 100% RDA of iron may lead to heart damage. Most progressive supplements have tailored their supplements to include a much smaller milligram content of iron per serving.

What Causes Hemorrhoids?

2009-03-23T15:40:00.000-07:00

There are several causes that can contribute to Hemorrhoids and it is quite common that those afflicted can suffer from more than one cause. Combined factors can increase the intensity or frequency of occurrences.
Most causes are related to circulatory and colon health. Proper diet and exercise is the best preventative and long term solution. However, here is no cure for Hemorrhoids. Surgery is definitely not a cure. But, with the right supplementation, exercise and nutrition, the frequency and severity of future outbreaks can be diminished.

Common Hemorrhoid Causes

Physical
· Sitting for Long Periods
· Office Work
· Driving
· Straining / Pressure
· Pregnancy / Childbirth
· Straining during bowel movements
· Weightlifting
· Obesity
· Friction
· Distance Running
· Bicycling
· Exercise
· Heredity
· Genetic Factors

Circulatory Disorders
· Diabetes
· Arterial sclerosis
· Varicose Veins
· Parasites

Impaired Colon Function

· Former Colon Surgery

Poor Diet
· Alcohol Consumption
· High Carbohydrate Diet
· Insufficient Dietary Fiber

Prescription Drugs

We do not recommend surgery except as an option of last resort. Many sufferers have had surgical techniques performed only to see their Hemorrhoids return time and time again. Also, many of the popular creams, ointments and suppositories only offer temporary relief and many actually prolong the agony of Hemorrhoids.

Good News!
There are several effective natural treatments available today that are significantly less expensive options to perscriptions and will provide long term relief.

We are always interested in learning about the latest progressive natural and herbal products and would love to hear your thoughts and comments on this "painful" subject.
