Hi Everybody! This is Vathani Navasothy, from Awakening Dawn (& BulimiaHope).
Welcome to all of you!
Today I want to talk about :
Swollen Glands.
The glands that swell around the
under side of your face; just around where your jaw line is. Just all over here (pointing to the lower madible)!
Making it puffy, making it swell ...sometimes making it very painful . Most of you who indulge in ..
binge eating or binging and purging , as in the case of Bulimia
will have this common problem!
Where there's a lot of problem of pain, constant swellings of your glands.
I want to talk about that today.
I have three solutions for that!
The biggest, biggest culprit for swollen glands
and what causes it, is the sheer binging and purging
, by vomiting or by taking laxatives,
you are aggravating this jaw line area...this surface area ...where it is very delicate
and the acid reflux that travel around, further
damaging those glands
that makes the whole place SWELL !!!
So..
by doing more and more of the bingeing and purging,
what you are hoping to get rid of, actually makes it far WORSE ,
and it enlarges more!
I have three solutions for you today. 1) First and foremost , and the MOST importantly significant one
is to STOP the very behaviour that causes
that galds to swell in the 1st place!
And that is by simply stopping that behaviour!
And weaning yourself off, if you are not able to stop right from
being in that chaotic place to
completly zero cold turkey! You might not be able to do that all in one day (only few could!). But gradually,
take down the number of binging and purging episodes in any given 24 hours.
2) Secondly,
some of you may know
about Rock Salt!
Healing properties and ..you'll recognize this if you are in the UK..
This is rock salt!
Rock salt is very healing, in that it has Iodide (Iodine derivative).
Gargling with
rock salt water
will actually start to not only disinfect this area,
but it will also bring down the swelling in that area,
because of it's rich Iodide content of the rock salt water.
3) Third and finally,
some of you will have heard of
Saffron?
Saffron, is a spice. And you couldn't
get this from most supermarkets.
And basically
it's a "strand" that you can add ..as you can see
this is what it looks like!
It is something you can add to your everyday cooking..
just to spice up and bring out the flavour. But the most amazing thing about
Saffron, is that it has anti-inflammatory properties, which means
it naturally takes down the swelling, where you want the swelling to go away.
** Doesn't mean you can use it and abuse it to compensate for the (bulimic) behaviours that you indulge in!! **
As I said that 1st strategy and the most EFFECTIVE strategy is:
absolutely Stopping your
binging and purging behavior. The moment you notice that,
the moment you will see , that the beahviour correlates to the
reducing
reduction of the size of your glands.
