Pāpala kēpau or Umbrella catchbird tree
Nyctaginaceae (Four O'Clock family)
Indigenous to the Hawaiian Islands
Oʻahu (Cultivated)
The early Hawaiians used an adhesive gum from pāpala kēpau for repairing bowls.
The milky sap from pāpala kēpau was used for cuts. The cooked leaves were used to cure pāʻaoʻao (childhood disease with physical weakening) and for lepo paʻa (constipation).
Pāpala kēpau are truly fascinating plants with a sad, but interesting, cultural history. A sinistral use for the sticky fruit was to trap native birds. [6] The captured victims provided feathers for the strikingly colorful cloaks (capes), helmets, lei, images and kāhili. Birds such as 'ō'ō and mamo were plucked of their few moulting yellow feathers and set free to grow more for the next season. However, this was not the case with the 'i'iwi and 'apapane which were covered with red- or green-colored feathers and would not have survived the plucking. They were captured, plucked and eaten.
The former generic name Pisonia is named for William Piso (ca. 1611-1678), Dutch physician, pharmacist, botanist, and early writer on medicinal plants of Brazil.
The specific epithet umbellifera is from the Latin umbelliferum, umbel-bearing or shade carrying, from umbrella (altered from umbell), Latin for parasol, and named for the large leaves of this species.

This internal wilting causes a great variety of problems such as: dryness, sensitive skin, constipation, bleeding, lack of lubrication and more. They lose their sexuality by not being able to intimate with their partner, which leads them to question their body and person which becomes a mental problem. Women who have gone through this usually carry the problem silently and unaided. We must put the light on this situation and see how we can provide them with the right information and help.

So here's what I swear by: my morning smoothie ingredients which MUST include flax seed. Why? Because when I skip my flax for a while my blood pressure rises, my digestion slows down, and my depression rears it's ugly head. I've tested this theory quite a few times out of sheer laziness and neglect, but I always return to my flax.
From a flax seed website: "Current Research is finding that the benefits of Flaxseed help to combat the onset or reduce the symptoms of...

. . . and the list goes on and on. It seems that more and more benefits of Flaxseed, Flaxseed Oil and Flaxseed Lignans are being discovered through increasing research. The verified health benefits of Flaxseed are so numerous that it is ALMOST TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!!
The Many Benefits of Flaxseed
Golden Flaxseed promotes the general well-being of the body and is very beneficial for treatment of a variety of health problems. Following is a suggested DAILY intake of the Golden Flaxseed. For best results Flaxseed needs to be ground fresh with a coffee grinder immediately before it is taken." (I put my seeds right in my vitamix before adding the other smoothie ingredients and it grinds them for me)
"Golden Flaxseed can be mixed into 10 to 12 oz. of juice or water (make sure you take plenty of liquids). The suggested minimum daily intake is 1/4 cup of flaxseed ground to a meal. The most beneficial amount for maximum nutritional value of the Flaxseed is to take 2 tablespoons both in the morning and evening.
Those with diabetes, diverticulitis, diverticulosis, insomnia, and chronic constipation should take 2 tablespoons of finely ground flaxseed 30-40 minutes before each meal for the maximum health benefit. Finely ground Flaxseed gently cleanses out any wrinkles and pouches that trap bacteria in the G.I tract, and it lubricates the whole intestinal system.
Those with insomnia will find that Flaxseed will stabilize blood sugars for a more restful sleep.
Weight Control is another wonderful benefit! Flaxseed acts as a bulking agent and swells 3-4 times its size when ingested. Take 2-3 tablespoons of ground flaxseed stirred into 10-12 oz. of juice or water 30-40 minutes before meals.
Flaxseed oil is the richest source of the omega 3 fatty acid, alpha-linolenic acid. This fatty acid is considered essential, meaning your body cannot make it but requires it and so must derive all of it from the diet. The average American diet is sorely lacking in this healing fat.
Golden Flaxseed is unique in that 48% of its total fat content is omega 3 fatty acids. Omega 3 fatty acids are necessary for proper infant growth and development, especially important in the formation of a healthy nervous system, and to help keep that nervous system functioning properly.
Flaxseed oil has been shown to be useful in the treatment of multiple sclerosis, behavioral problems such as attention deficit disorder, depression, and bipolar disorder in adults and children1,2,3. Omega 3 fats are also important in modifying the body’s inflammatory response, making them very helpful in the treatment of inflammatory diseases like allergies, asthma, arthritis and eczema4,5. Studies have shown that omega 3 fats can lower blood pressure, “bad” cholesterol, and triglycerides by as much as 25% and 65%6,7. It’s impact on the number one killer in our country, heart disease, might be it’s most exciting health benefit.
Flax (Linum usitatissimum) is a beautiful blue flowered plant grown on the plains of Central Canada and the North Central United States. Medical research has taken great interest in flaxseed. Study after study confirms that the oil and fiber components of the flaxseed are wonderfully health promoting and are curative for many disease states."

Now for my disclaimer: I don't buy the brand shown any more, although I did at first. Now I buy it in bulk in the supermarket and store the seeds in my refrigerator for a longer shelf life. Flax seed oil will go rancid very quickly, so I don't bother with that, and the seeds have additional healthful qualities not found in the oil. My other magic smootie ingredients are greek yogurt (so high in protein!, zero fat) and pomegranate juice along with blueberries (frozen usually) and whatever fresh fruit catches my fancy.

Abdominal hernias occur when an organ or other piece of tissue pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall. The sac or bulge that protrudes from the weak spot may contain either a part of the intestine or a piece of the fatty lining of the colon (called the omentum). This typically occurs with hernias located in the abdominal wall or in the groin.
If the hernia occurs in the diaphragm, the muscle that separates the chest from the abdomen, the upper part of the stomach may penetrate the weak area.
Your abdomen is made up of layers upon layers of different muscle groups, tissues, and organs. It is possible that with age, prior surgeries, past injuries, new injuries, or medical conditions your abdominal muscle strength and support may become compromised. Weak spots may develop in these layers allowing the contents of your abdominal cavity to protrude or herniate. The most common hernias include an inguinal hernia which occurs in the groin, a hiatal hernia (herniated diaphragm), and an umbilical hernia, which occurs in the belly button. Some hernias may be congenital (present at birth), or they may be acquired (happening at any point in your life).
Abdominal and Pelvic Floor Hernias
Inguinal Hernias
Groin hernias are the most common hernia to occur in both men and women. Of the groin hernias, there are two different types: inguinal hernia and a femoral hernia. Statistically, almost all groin hernias are inguinal.
Inguinal hernias occur when part of your intestine protrudes through a weak spot in your lower belly. This affects what is known as the inguinal canal.

Of the inguinal hernias, there are type different types:
Indirect: Hernia that enters the inguinal canal
Direct: Hernia that does not enter the inguinal canal
Most people develop this type of hernia due to improper lifting mechanics when lifting weights or other heavy objects.
Inguinal hernias are more common in men, yet are not limited to adults either. The primary characteristic of an inguinal hernia is a lump or bulge located on either side of the pubic bone when the thigh meets the groin. You may notice this more when you cough, stand, or strain and may be painful during these activities. The lump may also disappear when you lay down.
It is important to note that one of the primary dangers of an inguinal hernia is strangulated. Although many hernias are asymptomatic and can be managed without experiencing much pain, a strangulated hernia can cause severe pain, nausea, vomiting, and may inhibit your ability to perform a bowel movement. If this ever occurs, it is important to seek immediate medical attention.
Femoral Hernias
A femoral hernia typically occurs through an opening in the abdominal floor in a space that allows for the femoral artery and vein to pass from the abdomen and into the upper leg. Femoral hernias are a groin hernia that tend to occur more frequently in women than men due to their wider pelvic structure.
Like an inguinal hernia, a femoral hernia may pose potentially life-threatening health risks. Femoral hernias are dangerous because they are often asymptomatic until you need immediate medical attention. If you notice a lump around the crease of your groin or in the upper thigh, it is best to have a doctor take a look at it.
Obturator Hernias
Obturator hernias are the least common of the three pelvic floor, lower abdominal hernias. However, they are commonly found in postpartum people who have experienced multiple pregnancies or in people who have lost significant weight. The obturator canal (another connection between the abdomen and the leg) may herniate causing the obturator artery, vein, and nerve to protrude into the upper leg of the individual.
Anterior Abdominal Wall Hernias
Your abdominal wall is made up of two sets of mirrored muscle groups on either side of your body. These muscle groups include the rectus abdominis muscles (your 6-pack), the internal and external obliques, and the transversalis muscles.
Umbilical Hernia
An umbilical hernia is the second most common hernia. They typically occur more often in children, but can affect adults as well. Umbilical hernias occur when fat or part of the intestine pushes through the muscles near the belly button.
Women are more likely than men to get an umbilical hernia. Your chances are also higher if you:
In adults, an umbilical hernia is more common in women. You may be at a higher risk of an umbilical hernia if you are:
overweight
experienced multiple pregnancies
have a chronic cough
enlarged prostate that causes strain when urinating
chronic constipation
chronic vomiting
Umbilical hernias are often asymptomatic as well and, in newborns, typically resolve on their own by the time the child is one. Surgical treatment may only be necessary if the hernia becomes too large or strangulated.
Epigastric Hernia
Epigastric hernias occur due to a weakness or compromised midline in the rectus abdominis muscles (also known as the linea alba) between the breastbone and the belly button. Often, the weakness goes unnoticed until later in life and may result in herniated pieces of bowel, fat, or omentum (fatty lining of the colon). Epigastric hernias may be mistaken as diastasis recti, another condition affecting the rectus abdominis and linea alba.
Spigelian Hernia
A spigelian hernia is very rare and typically occurs on the outside of the rectus abdominis muscles.
Incisional Hernia
An incisional hernia is another common type of hernia that may occur due to a prior abdominal surgery. Although during a surgical procedure the muscles are typically repaired, the stress of the surgery and the scarring may present as a weak spot in the abdominal wall, thus, allowing part of an organ or tissues to herniate through the incision.
Diaphragmatic Hernias
Hiatal Hernias
A hiatal hernia is different from the aforementioned types of hernias. A hiatal hernia involves a weakening or compromised section of the diaphragm, a sheet of muscle that separates the chest from the abdomen. In this same area of your body, your esophagus passes through into an opening in the diaphragm.
A hiatal hernia occurs when a part of the upper stomach herniates through the diaphragm. In most cases, a lump is not apparent, but you may experience several painful or uncomfortable symptoms: heartburn, chest pain, or you may even experience a sour taste in your mouth.
Hiatal hernias are more common in pregnant women or in people 50 and older. If your symptoms are causing you pain, lifestyle changes or prescription antacids or drugs may help ease symptoms of acid reflux. In some cases, however, you may never feel any pain or discomfort.
Paraesophageal Hernias
Paraesophageal hernias can be extremely dangerous. These occur when part of the stomach herniates into the diaphragm alongside the esophagus. This may cause a bowel obstruction or lead to volvulus (a twisting of the stomach).
Traumatic Diaphragmatic Hernias
A traumatic diaphragmatic hernia usually occurs as a result of a blunt force injury to the left side of the chest and diaphragm. An injury to this side of the chest may lead to compromised muscle strength and lead to a herniation of the organs in this location. They typically do not occur on the right side as the liver protects digestive organs from herniating.

Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernias
Congenital diaphragmatic hernias are very rare and caused by a malformed diaphragm during fetal development. This may lead to incomplete lung function and a herniation of the chest organs through the diaphragm.
It is important to note that hernias typically do not resolve on their own and may pose life-threatening health risks if not treated properly. If you believe you may have a hernia or are experiencing severe symptoms or pain, talk with your doctor right away.
In Ayurveda, a healthy digestive system is referred to as the mainstream of our well-being. The root cause of most of the diseases is inefficient digestion. The metabolic energy of digestion called ‘agni’ helps in eliminating the body wastes and toxins. It breaks down the dense physical matter into subtle energy, which the body needs to generate internal warmth as well as produce a clear mind.
Understanding the Digestive Process
To help you understand this process better, let’s think of our digestive system as a juicer, the body toxins as fruit waste, ‘agni’ as the juicer blades and energy as juice! If the juicer blades are weak, less juice is produced and there is more fruit waste left over.
Similarly, when this ‘agni’ (juicer blade) is weak, there is not enough digestive power to metabolize food into energy (juice), resulting in more toxins (fruit waste) getting accumulated in the cells. Thus, a stronger ‘agni’ (better juicer blades) is required for a good digestive system. An easy way to support this digestive ‘agni’ is through the power of Yoga!
How Does Yoga Improve Your Digestive System?
Yoga synchronizes exercises with the rhythmic breathing in the body. Breathing ushers life force into the body and cleanses it of toxic materials formed due to wrong diet, unhealthy lifestyle and accumulated stresses. It improves ‘agni’, creates body balance and longevity while rejuvenating the whole system.
Benefits of Yoga
• A light and supple body
• A body that is alert and active
• Strong bones and muscles
• Reduction of fat
• Increased physical strength
• Improved appetite
• Increased capability to cope with fatigue
Yoga poses to aide digestion
1. Trikonasana – Improves digestion stimulates appetite and alleviates constipation.
2. Paschimottanasana – Relieves digestive problems like constipation.
3. Pawanmuktasana – Improves gastrointestinal problems.
4. Ardha Matsyendrasana – Massages the abdominal organs, thus alleviating digestive problems.
5. Ustrasana – Stretches the stomach and intestines, alleviating constipation.
A good digestive system is the key to a healthy lifestyle. Physical ailments like constipation, stomach ache, ulcers, acnes, pimples and bloating can be kept at bay if one’s digestive system is in a good condition.
Here are some important tips and long-term remedies that will aid digestion:
• Avoid drinking water half an hour before and after the meal
• Avoid eating heavy meals at night and overeating as well
• Do not lie down immediately after having your meal
• Avoid eating junk food or oily food
• Consume fibrous food
• Avoid irregular food timings
• Be happy and stay away from a stressful lifestyle
• Practice yoga regularly
Skipping meals or popping antacid tablet are not advisable. While it is difficult to bring a radical change in our day-to-day lifestyle, certain measures can be adopted to rejuvenate the digestive system and strengthen it.
Yoga is a time-tested technique for effectively restoring the body to optimum condition – naturally, and without making any major alterations in lifestyle. Simply practicing these basic yoga postures which can relax your abdominal organs and following these simple habits can help improve the functioning of the digestive system and restore your system back to an optimum level!

A ameixa-vermelha é rica em provitamina A - hummmmm
A ameixa, consumida ao natural, fresca, seca ou demolhada, é um alimento saboroso e saudável. É também muito apreciada em compotas, geléias, sopas, purês, ou em mistura com figos secos, passas de uvas ou nozes raladas. Por suas propriedades laxativas, convém aos intestinos preguiçosos. Mesmo crianças pequenas podem beneficiar-se da "água da ameixa" em caso de prisão de ventre.
A ameixa, conforme a variedade, apresenta algumas diferenças de valor nutricional. Por exemplo, a ameixa-vermelha é rica em provitamina A, ao passo que as outras variedades são relativamente pobres. A ameixa-amarela é, por sua vez, mais doce e energética, além de conter um pouco mais de proteína. A ameixa-preta apresenta elevada atividade aquosa, sendo a mais apropriada para o tratamento das afecções urinárias.
Graças ao seu conteúdo em fibra (especialmente pectina), carboidratos, magnésio, sódio e potássio, a ameixa é laxativa, recomendando-se contra a prisão de ventre obstinada.
Médicos afirmam que a ameixa fresca é um magnífico agente terapêutico contra as enfermidades causadas pelos ácidos e associadas às hiperlipidemias, principalmente pelo ácido úrico, tais como o reumatismo, a artrite, a gota; a arteriosclerose, a nefrite etc; ácidos e/ou gorduras originados por uma alimentação excessiva, à base de proteínas, gorduras saturadas e colesterol.
A ameixa fresca é indicada contra as hemorróidas e a hipocondria.
Diurética como é, recomenda-se contra as afecções de caráter inflamatório das vias urinarias.
É, ainda, "desobstruente" do fígado, "depurativa" do sangue e "desintoxicante" do aparelho digestivo, pelo que se emprega com êxito nas afecções febris do estômago e do intestino.
No tratamento das afecções das vias respiratórias (anginas, catarros etc.)

Colon cancer is one of the deadliest types of the disease, and this is partly because, among all types, it has the mildest symptoms. Causing no obvious symptoms especially at the early stages, most cases are diagnosed when lesion cancerous change already occurs. At this point, the disease is already in its advanced state and may already be harder to treat.
The physical signs of this disease arise gradually over time, making it difficult for doctors to diagnose it correctly. Most of these symptoms are felt only when the disease is already about to do significant damage to the colon. Thus, timely, quick, and accurate diagnosis is of extreme importance for sufferers.
Common Colon Cancer Symptoms
The main colon cancer symptoms include abdominal pain and discomfort that are often mistaken for digestive tract problems. The patients can experience one or all of the following:
1. Constipation
It is the condition when the person is facing difficulties for passing the stool. In the early stage the waste material in the colon becomes very mushy and this mushy waste can easily get accumulated around anything that gets in its way. But as the time get near to the end of the colon these accumulated waste material solidifies and creates problems for passing it out. There are possibilities of tumor in the rectum's far end and due to this reason the person can face difficulties in moving the fecal things through it. Therefore Constipation can also be a symptom out of several other colon cancer symptoms.
2. Thin stool
The thin stool from the body can easily indicate that some obstacles are there which don't allow the proper passing of the waste material from the body. If the stool can't remain in the mushy form and comes out through the colon region, the stool's shape can provide you information about the problem inside your body. The obstacle which stops the waste material in the body can be a tumor. So, the thin stool coming out from the body is considered as the second symptom among several other colon cancer symptoms.
3. Stomach cramps
Sometimes there becomes blockage in your stomach due to the tumor which causes problem in passing, solids, liquids, and even gas due to the blockage strictness. Finally it results in abdominal cramps that can be severe and the blockage can also stop the flow of blood to the colon. If there are Painful cramps occurring in your stomach it may also indicate that a tumor has perforate and it is a medical emergency. Thus this is also one of the colon cancer symptoms found now-a-days.
For tumors localized in the rectal area, the disease may also be accompanied by rectum irritation, anus pain, or difficulty in defecating. These may also cause dysentery, enteritis, and hemorrhoids.
In the Advanced Stages
The most common symptom of the advanced stages is the development of an irregular abdominal mass with a hard texture. In some cases, such as in transverse and sigmoid colon cancers, the mass can cause pain even at light pressure.
Patients in the late stages of the disease may also experience anemia or the heightened absorption of toxins. These may be accompanied by edema, hepatomegaly, ascites, cachexia, and hypoproteinemia, among many others.
All symptoms of the disease, as can be observed, are linked to painful sensations. Thus, if not diagnosed early, the patient can suffer greatly throughout the course of the disease. A cancer hospital in China specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease, including that of the colon, to make sure patients are given the best possible quality of life in their condition.

'Pandanus odoratissimus' Ripe fruits fill the air with a pleasant aroma, much like flowers. The fruit is healthy and can be eaten raw or cooked. It is a major source of food in Micronesia, especially in the atolls. The fibrous nature of the fruit also serves as a natural dental floss. The tree's leaves are often used as flavoring for sweet dishes such as kaya jam, and are also said to have medicinal properties, the oil to cure headaches and the flowers to cure constipation.
The fibers on inner ends of dry keys are used as brushes for painting kapa/tapa. They also contain tasty seeds which are difficult to remove.
These ends of hala fruit are often strung to make leis.

“Best Way to Cure These Disorders Is the Natural Treatment”
Disclaimer: Updates mentioned in the article are for general information purpose only. If making any changes in the fitness programme or diet then it is requested to consult your doctor or a dietician before implementing anything new.
Today in Weight Watchers we discussed the benefits of walking. I'm starting an 8 week training program and then will enter my first 5K. I need to quit smoking first but who wants to be around someone who is dieting and trying to quit smoking - NO ONE !
Here's a list of some of the benefits of walking :
Managing your weight. Combined with healthy eating, physical activity is key to any plan for long-lasting weight control. Keeping your weight within healthy limits can lower your risks of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke, cancer, sleep apnea, and osteoarthritis.
Controlling your blood pressure. Physical activity strengthens the heart so it can pump more blood with less effort and with less pressure on the arteries. Staying fit is just as effective as some medications in keeping down blood pressure levels.
Decreasing your risk of heart attack. Exercise such as brisk walking for three hours a week — or just half an hour a day — is associated with a 30% to 40% lower risk of heart disease in women. (Based on the 20-year Nurses' Health Study of 72,000 female nurses.)
Boosting "good" cholesterol – the level of high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Physical activity helps reduce low-density lipoproteins (LDL or "bad" cholesterol) in the blood, which can cause plaque buildup along the artery walls — a major cause of heart attacks.
Lowering your risk of stroke. Regular, moderate exercise equivalent to brisk walking for an hour a day, five days a week, can cut the risk of stroke in half, according to a Harvard study of more than 11,000 men.
Reducing your risk of breast cancer and type 2 diabetes. The Nurses' Health Study also links regular activity to risk reductions for both these diseases. In another study, people at high risk of diabetes cut their risk in half by combining consistent exercise like walking with lower fat intake and a 5% to 7% weight loss.
Avoiding your need for gallstone surgery. Regular walking or other physical activity lowers the risk of needing gallstone surgery by 20% to 31%, found a Harvard study of more than 60,000 women ages 40 to 65.
Protecting against hip fracture. Consistent activity diminishes the risk of hip fracture, concludes a study of more than 30,000 men and women ages 20 to 93.
The list goes on and on. Many other studies indicate a daily brisk walk also can help:
Prevent depression, colon cancer, constipation, osteoporosis, and impotence
Lengthen lifespan
Lower stress levels
Relieve arthritis and back pain
Strengthen muscles, bones, and joints
Improve sleep
Elevate overall mood and sense of well-being
Get those shoes and pedometer and hit the road !

A ameixa-vermelha é rica em provitamina A - hummmmm
A ameixa, consumida ao natural, fresca, seca ou demolhada, é um alimento saboroso e saudável. É também muito apreciada em compotas, geléias, sopas, purês, ou em mistura com figos secos, passas de uvas ou nozes raladas. Por suas propriedades laxativas, convém aos intestinos preguiçosos. Mesmo crianças pequenas podem beneficiar-se da "água da ameixa" em caso de prisão de ventre.
A ameixa, conforme a variedade, apresenta algumas diferenças de valor nutricional. Por exemplo, a ameixa-vermelha é rica em provitamina A, ao passo que as outras variedades são relativamente pobres. A ameixa-amarela é, por sua vez, mais doce e energética, além de conter um pouco mais de proteína. A ameixa-preta apresenta elevada atividade aquosa, sendo a mais apropriada para o tratamento das afecções urinárias.
Graças ao seu conteúdo em fibra (especialmente pectina), carboidratos, magnésio, sódio e potássio, a ameixa é laxativa, recomendando-se contra a prisão de ventre obstinada.
Médicos afirmam que a ameixa fresca é um magnífico agente terapêutico contra as enfermidades causadas pelos ácidos e associadas às hiperlipidemias, principalmente pelo ácido úrico, tais como o reumatismo, a artrite, a gota; a arteriosclerose, a nefrite etc; ácidos e/ou gorduras originados por uma alimentação excessiva, à base de proteínas, gorduras saturadas e colesterol.

É, ainda, "desobstruente" do fígado, "depurativa" do sangue e "desintoxicante" do aparelho digestivo, pelo que se emprega com êxito nas afecções febris do estômago e do intestino.
No tratamento das afecções das vias respiratórias (anginas, catarros etc.)

Secretos de Radiación.

Esta marchitación interna les ocasiona una gran variedad de problemas como: resequedad, piel sensible, estreñimiento, sangrados, falta de lubricación y más. Ellas pierden su sexualidad al no poder intimar con su pareja, lo cual les lleva a cuestionar su cuerpo y persona lo que se convierte en un problema mental.

Secrets of Radiation. It is the project that I intend to reflect the physical and mental deterioration suffered by women who have received radiation from cervical cancer and the deterioration due to side effects to the treatment, which saves their lives but leaves a great imprint on their body and mind . This internal wilting causes a great variety of problems such as: dryness, sensitive skin, constipation, bleeding, lack of lubrication and more. They lose their sexuality by not being able to intimate with their partner, which leads them to question their body and person which becomes a mental problem. Women who have gone through this usually carry the problem silently and unaided. We must put the light on this situation and see how we can provide them with the right information and help.

This internal wilting causes a great variety of problems such as: dryness, sensitive skin, constipation, bleeding, lack of lubrication and more. They lose their sexuality by not being able to intimate with their partner, which leads them to question their body and person which becomes a mental problem. Women who have gone through this usually carry the problem silently and unaided. We must put the light on this situation and see how we can provide them with the right information and help.

The Negro coffee or Stinking weed is found throughout India, growing abundantly on waste lands immediately after the rains. It is an offensively odorous undershrub with furrowed subglabrous branches. Leaflets are 3-5 pairs. Flowers are yellow, arranged in short peduncled few flowered racemes. Fruits are cylindrical or compressed, transversely septate glabrous pods containing 20-30 seeds. Seeds are ovoid, compressed, hard, smooth and skin dark olive green or pale brown.
The plant is useful in vitiated conditions of vata and kapha, cough, bronchitis, constipation, fever, epilepsy and convulsions. The roots are useful in inflammation, diabetes, strangury, elephantiasis, ringworm, colic, flatulence, dyspepsia, epilepsy, convulsions and scorpion sting. The leaves and seeds are used in leprosy, erysipelas, pruritus, wounds and ulcers, cough, bronchitis, hiccough, asthma, pharyngodynia, fever and hydrophobia (Warrier et al, 1994). A paste made out of roots is considered as a specific remedy for ringworm, eczema and other skin ailments (Aiyer amd Kolammal, 1964). Bark, roots, leaves and seeds are used in medicine. The drug is an ingredient of Surasadi taila (Sivarajan et al, 1994).
The plant contains emodin, physcion, chrysophanol, sitosterol and a xanthone- cassiollin. Seeds contain phytosterolin and 3-methyl-6-methoxy-1, 8-dihydroxy anthraquinone. Flowers contain physcion-b-D-glucopyranoside. Roots contain phytosterol, 1, 8-dihydroxy anthraquinone, a-hydroxy anthraquinone, quercetin, 1, 4, 5-trihydroxy anthroquinone derivatives, namely, islandicin, helminthosporon and xanthorin, a xanthone derivative-cassiollin. Leaves contain flavonoids- matteucinol-7-rhamnoside and jaceidin-7-rhamnoside. The plant is febrifuge, purgative, diuretic and tonic. Seed and leaf are bitter, sweet, acrid, thermogenic and depurative and used in skin diseases. Root is an antidote for snakebite (Husain et al, 1992).

Postpartum physical therapy can be a great way to restore function and strength in your core and pelvic floor muscles. Giving birth places a strain on your body and it is no surprise that many postpartum people experience pelvic pain and discomfort for weeks to months after delivery. Even after the typical 8 week recovery time, many women may require more time or a pelvic floor workout plan to help get them back on their feet, especially women who delivered via C-section.
Although you may never look how you did before your pregnancy, physical therapy post pregnancy can help relieve symptoms of pelvic organ prolapse, diastasis recti, and other postpartum symptoms.
Physical Therapy After Pregnancy
Physical therapy for pregnancy and after pregnancy can help strengthen and restore pelvic floor muscle and joint function, increase body awareness, and also provide education and instruction on how to modify your daily activities to serve you in your recovery. Some of the primary physical therapy options available include:
Pelvic girdle and lumbar spine realignment
Prenatal tissue and joint mobilization
Postpartum external and internal tissue, joint, scar, and visceral movement therapy
Strength training for pelvic floor muscles
Pelvic floor stabilization and core strength exercises
Proper posture, postural strengthening for back pain
Diastasis recti rehabilitation
Body mechanics training and education
At home strategies and education for self-care
How Do You Know if You Need Pelvic Floor Therapy?
The two most common conditions many postpartum people face are diastasis recti and pelvic organ prolapse. Pregnancy and delivery create an imbalance of muscles and ligament tension. This can leave the pelvic floor and abdominals unsupported potentially leading to prolapse or DRA. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you may need to consider physical therapy or movement therapy:
Constipation
Urinary incontinence
Fecal incontinence
Pain during intercourse
Vaginal pain
Rectal pain
Low back pain
Pelvic pain
Diastasis Recti – separation of the abdominal muscles
Pelvic organ prolapse
Pubic bone pain
Pelvic girdle pain
A physical therapist can help you recover from many of these symptoms with the education and therapy options mentioned above. If your physical therapist is specially trained to treat pelvic floor issues, they can help significantly reduce the painful symptoms you may be experiencing while also strengthening your core and pelvic floor muscles.
What Helps with Postpartum Pain?
Physical therapy can be a great way to help women recover from postpartum issues. However, not all exercise routines or core training workouts are created equal. Restoring your body’s function is not something to do quickly or forcefully. Exercise is important, but resting and pacing yourself are far more vital to your recovery than rushing it. Postpartum recovery requires a specific re-training of your body to regain strength and integrity. Long-term functionality is better than getting slim fast.
Exercise
As you begin to exercise postpartum, it is important that your focus be on the major muscle groups affected by your delivery. Short spurts of slow, simple stretches and yoga poses are a great place to begin. Shoot for around 10 to 20 minutes a day of light exercise and stretching. Many exercises can be done during your recovery, but it’s important that you don’t overexert yourself before the 8 week mark is up (and for some women, even longer). As you continue to regain strength and functionality, you can gradually increase your workout time and intensity.
Rest
If I could have a dollar for every person who wished they had rested more in order to spare themselves injury. Rest is so important for healing your body postpartum and ensuring that you do not damage your core and your pelvic floor. We recommend getting back into exercise at least 8 weeks postpartum, but even then, easing into it is key. The “I want to get my body back” sentiment can be very harmful to a recovering body.
What’s the Best Pelvic Floor Exercise?
There is no one exercise that tops all of the others when treating your pelvic floor. However, one of the most important techniques you can implement in your recovery and in your physical therapy is breathing.
Breathing properly is one of the most beneficial techniques I teach my clients in RYC. This pattern of breathing uses ribcage expansion instead of belly expansion for an effective and efficient strategy in restoring pelvic floor function. breathing mechanics are the most important element to any exercise routine. Many people don’t realize that the way they breathe can greatly affect the effectiveness of their regimen. In some cases, improper breathing mechanics can cause a lot of physical harm. Upper lung and rib cage breathing can reduce DRA expansion, pelvic tension, and lower back pain.
What Exercises are Bad for Pelvic Floor?
There are many exercises that can be damaging to your healing body. While in recovery (for at least the first 6 months) avoid strenuous abdominal exercises that apply unnecessary pressure on your belly and midline (i.e. sit-ups, planks, crunches, squats, etc). It is also important that you avoid heavy lifting or twisting in ways that may affect your abdominal wall (i.e. oblique curls, roll-ups).
If yoga is a part of your physical therapy routine, try to avoid yoga poses such as backbends and other spinal extensions as they too increase intra-abdominal pressure.
It's a beautiful day at the local Star Wars Convention. Unfortunately there are problems with the plumbing in the Convention Center where it's being held that have forced the staff to close the bathrooms. In order to cope with this minor crisis, a Porta Potty has been installed in the parking lot which has been decorated by the convention organizers to fit in with the Star Wars theme.
Quite a crowd of costumed fans have gathered in line around the Porta Potty and tempers are beginning to flare...
