Infant recovered from fever in one day

I have heard stories from many mummies that their kid fall sick after vaccination jabs.

Example

From their accounts, typically their kids take a few days to get well. In the process, sometimes the mummies themselves fall sick too.

This made me worried because my daughter was due for her 3 months old vaccination on 06 Oct 2015, which includes 2 jabs.

1) 5-in-1 : Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis, Poliovirus, Haemophilus influenza type B.
2) Pneumococcal


In preparation for the vaccination on 06 Oct, I started to up my own immunity via taking Nutriact and Millennium daily from 04 Oct. The antibodies will be passed from me to my baby via breast milk.

The following is the chronological description of events.

06 Oct morning
As usual, my girl is very chatty and happy. She likes to move her arms and kick her legs.
She poops regularly as well.

06 Oct 11am
Took 2 vaccination jabs.
She started to become very quiet and slept on the way home from the clinic.

06 Oct 12 noon
Reached home. She drank some breast milk (bm) then fell asleep.
Temperature 36.8C.

06 Oct 4pm
She woke up. Fed her bm. Usually she will fidget and try to talk when feeding.
But this time she was quiet. Her arms and legs felt limp. I think she felt very tired and weak.
No poop.
She went back to sleep.

06 Oct 6pm
She woke up. Fed her bm. Her body felt warmer than normal.
She was still quiet and weak. Went back to sleep.
No poop.

06 Oct 9pm
She woke up. Direct latch her so that she gets the freshest bm. At the same time, my body can react by giving her the most appropriate antibodies.
No poop for 9 hours by now!!
Temperature 37.9C!!


07 Oct 2am
Woke her up because she slept for very long.
Mixed Millenium in the breast milk and bottle fed her. Millenium contains fiber from cactus plant. Millennium strengthens the immunity as well.
She went back to sleep.
No poop.

07 Oct 4am
Direct latch again.
Temperature REDUCED to 37.4C!!

07 Oct 6am
Mixed Millenium in the breast milk and bottle fed her.
Poop explosion!!! After 18 hours she pooped finally, and pooped a lot!

07 Oct 8am
She woke up smiling and started "chatting" with me again.
Mixed Millenium in the breast milk and bottle fed her. She slept again.
Temperature REDUCED to 37.1C!!


After that, she pooped normally and temperature went back to normal.
She smiles and laughs happily after getting well.

I'm very happy that with the help of Millenium and Nutriact, my 3 month old baby was able to fight fever WITHOUT ANY MEDICATION and WITHOUT SPONGING.

I did not sleep much through the night as well. I'm thankful that I did not fall sick as well.


There is no secret to good health. Just knowledge of suitable nutrition to nourish our own immune system to fight germs.

I hope to be able to share with you the science of Nutritional immunology. Feel free to contact me for a COMPLIMENTARY sharing about this science.

Weight Management Pre-post Pregnancy

Hello. This is me! Pre- and post pregnancy.

Weight loss was pretty fast and easy. There is no secret to losing weight. It is just a simple control of calories intake and increase in calories burnt. To achieve this, these are a few tips.


1) Control calories intake - Food intake
During confinement, it is important to nourish the body well. Hence, I ate a lot of rice and whatever my confinement lady cooked. After confinement, I cut down on rice intake, and occasionally switched to eating coarse rice instead. Meals continued to be home-cooked so that I can control the amount of oil and sauce used.

2) Control calories intake - Increased fibre
Fibre increases satiety and prevents absorption of oil and fats in the intestine. My source of fibre comes from I-shape lite, coarse grain rice, and increased consumption of the stem part of vegetables in daily meals.

3) Increase calories burnt - Increase metabolism and maintaining muscle mass
I take lean proteins from soy, from I-shape daily as breakfast. This helps maintain lean muscle mass. I-shape also contains American ginseng to help increase metabolism.

4) Increase calories burnt - Exercise
Since giving birth, I have not returned to the gym or restarted yoga. All I do now is taking care of my baby, carrying her and doing housework. Housework appears to be simple but actually it is very tiring.

5) Increase calories burnt - Breastfeeding
Breastfeeding is one of the easiest way to burnt calories. My kid has been solely on breast milk since birth. Till date it is already about 3 months.


In addition .....

After delivery, there is a lot of excess skin at the tummy area. It is important for the body to have sufficient collagen so that the skin shrinks beautifully. Many collagen products in the market are from animal source. Some are chemically created. There is no guarantee whether the products are compatible with breastfeeding.

As such, I chose to take Oxyginberry capsules. It contains 6 wholesome organic fruits very high amounts of antioxidants and phytochemicals. This triggers the body to produce collagen by herself.

Since it is wholesome, without added chemicals or added preservatives, it is very safe for consumption during breastfeeding.

Since also the body can produce collagen by herself, excess skin at the tummy area can shrink nicely back to shape. Not to mention, there are no stretch marks as well!

Testimonial for Oxyginberry - Sore throat and Cough

My sister used to get sore throat often. The haze usually will worsen the sore throat and cough. But since ny sister started consuming Oxyginberry regularly, now her immune system is able to fight the germs by itself! 

The benefits of better health are intangible! :-)

Cheng Tng for the Haze Season

The weather has been bad recently, with haze going into the hazardous range. It is important to avoid breathing in too much "dirty" air containing particulates, especially so for my 2 month old infant. Many people rush to buy air purifier. But do not choose a good one. For really cleaning up the air indoors, a HEPA filter on the air purifier is needed.

I believe my air-conditioner, together with religious vacuuming and wiping of dust and dirt is good enough for the purpose required.

As usual, I enjoy using food nutrition to nourish the immune system so that our body is strong and can prevent falling sick in such a weather. Since I am breastfeeding now as well, I'm particularly drawn to food such as longan and red dates, which are milk boosters.

So today I cooked Cheng tng for my family. This is a tasty dessert that soothes the throat and reduces the heatiness of the body. 

The following ingredients are used.

Snow fungus

Snow fungus is an immune stimulant that may help fight infection as seen in cell studies. Laboratory studies have found that it also demonstrates antitumor activity, lowers levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL, or "bad") cholesterol, protects the liver, and fights inflammation, and that it may slow the ageing process. Supposedly, if snow fungus is eaten regularly, facial freckles will disappear, although this has not been tested in any scientific fashion.

Longan

Longan fruit is rich in antioxidants and can protect against heart disease, chronic inflammation and may even help prevent some cancers. Just one half cup provides 80% of your daily vitamin C requirements. Vitamin C also plays a vital role in immunity. 

Iron absorption depends on vitamin C and combining longan fruit with meat increases your iron levels. Longan helps with blood production, most likely through the iron content needed to produce new red blood cells.
(extracted from http://www.newhealthguide.org/Longan-Fruit.html)

Red dates

Red dates are said to stimulate the production of white blood cells, which improves immunity, and decrease the levels of cholesterol in your bloodstream, which helps protect the liver.
Because of their high levels of Vitamin C, dates convert excessive cholesterol into bile acid, which helps prevent gallstones. Meanwhile, phosphorus and iron play an important role in preventing osteoporosis and anemia, both common in women.

Lily bud

Believed to  help with insomnia and to help settle a cough.

Lotus seeds

Lotus seeds contain L-isoaspartyl methyltransferase, an enzyme with anti-ageing properties. It is known to help in repairing damaged proteins. The seeds contain kaempferol, a flavonoid known for its anti-inflammatory properties. It is known to help in repairing aging gum tissue. The astringent properties of lotus seeds make them beneficial for the kidneys. They help to regulate the energy levels of the body.

To sum up, eating healthily does not mean spending huge amounts of money. Understanding the benefits of each type of plant food, and use as needed, can help us to increase our immunity against diseases.

We can also remain youthful and healthy with correct choices of food.

Our health depends on what we eat. So choose wisely. 

CHEERS!! :)

Testimonial for Oxyginberry - Skin

I recommended my friend to consume Oxyginberry regularly. I'm happy to hear from her that she has benefitted from it!

Her skin feels smoother after 2 weeks of day and night consumption. :-)

There is no secret to beautiful skin actually. We just need to take more fruits and vegetables daily and drink more water. 

Oxyginberry contains wholesome plant food containing high amounts of antioxidants and phytochemicals from the 6 precious fruits. This food nutrition is packed into capsules for the convenience of daily consumption. 

With consistent nourishment, the body is able to rejuvenate and revitalize, and that is how improvement to the skin is obtained. It is no miracle drug.

With better nourishment, we can yield other benefits to the body as well. In general, our immune system as a whole needs 90 to 180 days to do an overhaul for it to be healthier.

These are testimonials from other consumers. 

Improvement to bowels

Improvement to energy levels

Back to work

Hahaha is this true? 

For now, I just miss my baby a lot. Even when I have to go out, I try to rush back soon so that I can hug my girl.  :)

I'm going back to work very soon. This means the start of long hours, great stress and might need to fly overseas again. Too many things to consider... 

- will I still be able to do middle of the night feeds?

- will I be too tired?

- will I have enough time in office to pump n store the bm?

All I know is that an active income from a stressful job is not the way to go. I need to build up passive income. It's still not too late to realise this. 

Jiayou to myself! Yes!
