Hmm...it would be good if you could describe , what you wanted to know? BTW...I have a Diploma in Holistic Medicine.

Sadly, natural/homeopathy are not well known and accepted in msia..Bomoh medicine seems the way of life here! :)

thank you, veejay ... for respond to my post ...
ohh... this 'hn' ... actually my sister taking the class now in penang .... her teacher teach a lot of teori but she feels that she need some experiance sharing with ppl who practice this concept .... according to her this 'hn' is talking about the nutrition our body need .... what to eat .... how to eat ..... eating habbit .... etc ... i remember she told me that we human must eat like 'king kong' ... lots of fruits, some seeds & nuts , bits of greens ...

i did experiment by taking only fresh room tempreture fruit juice during morning .... it just different .... i feel my body not burden with heavy breakfast eg nasi lemak, fried mee, roti canai , even bread .... the nutrition in the juice oso easy to taken by body & feel very refreshing n energy for a long time ... until 10am something i will take some light snack ....

this is a practice she teach me when she learn from teori ... so she said she need to get to know more by sharing experiance with ppl that practicing this 'hn' concept ...

so any idea ?... is your hollistic medicine related to 'hn' ? or have u heard of this b4? ...

Jojo, you got to understand all this are theory. Even western medicine is based application theory with scientific facts and data. For example when you take certain type of medicine, say for example for headache or acne, some medication would work for certain people and other won’t, why? That is where its difficult to answer, because human body is not conditioned the same, they differs to environment, habitant behaviors, etc.

Come to medicine, there is also many school of thoughts, so the different people you talk to, will say, different thing!  I did major in homeopathy and natural medicine. Both prescription is difficult to get in Msia.

As for breakfast, I personally subscribe to breakfast is bad, something very light such as coffee and a slice of bread is fine, but not heavy, just because, your body hibernates during sleep, and no active activity is involved, thus your body would have enough nutrition and energy to work thru the noon. Adding more calories during morning would only constitute to weight gain!

Also, dieting as of starving or very little food is really bad, because once your body goes into a ‘shock’ state, any food intake, will be converted to fat, because it would need it later to convert it as energy, thus people tend to put on weight, although they claim they either skip meal or eat very less!

If you want, we could take if offline, as I dont want to clog it here, as many may not find it informative...unless USJrian says otherwise?!
