Lifestyle DisharmonyThe cause of degenerative diseases - heart
disease, stroke, hypertension, cancer, diabetes, auto-immune diseases - rheumatoid
arthritis, lupus, sarcoid, chronic pain & inflammation or digestive disorders are related
to lifestyle, stress and diet.
According to Chinese & Tibetan medicine undisciplined habits of eating, drinking and lifestyle are the cause of dirty water in the
cerebro-spinal fluid leading to blood stagnation, premature aging and death.
