A cough happens when our lungs are trying to expel air rapidly in order to clear the airways of mucus, fluid etc.

Cough is also called Tusis and is an important defence of our body against disease.
Usually if your cough is under three weeks it is known as Acute and if more than three weeks it is categorised as Chronic. There are some individuals who suffer from a cough nearly all year round.

CHRONIC COUGH
No one worries about an occasional cough associated with an allergy or common cold it usually disappears within days and if it lingers or gets worse you should consult your GP especially in young children and the elderly.

Chronic cough which is not going away is the commonest reason people consult their doctors. A cough can be annoying, worrying and frustrating. It can produce lack of sleep, fatigue, lack of concentration and sometimes brain fog affecting your work and social life.

A new French study suggests that people who have deeper forehead wrinkles than it is typical for their age may have a higher risk of dying from heart disease, researchers found.
They also found the people with the deepest wrinkles on their brows had nearly 10 times the death risk from heart problems as compared to those with no wrinkles or normal wrinkles for their age even after adjusting for other risk factors. But the study did not prove that forehead wrinkles causes heart risk to rise while some heart experts remained sceptical.

The French team assessed 3,200 working adults and followed them for 20 years between the ages of 32 – 62 years.

The other risk factor included in the analysis were age, gender, education, smoking, blood pressure, heart rate, diabetes and cholesterol levels.

The researchers presented their findings at the European Society of Cardiology annual meeting in Munich Germany recently.

More women suffer from insomnia than men and incidences increase dramatically in 65 year-olds and over. Most people at some stage have experienced disrupted sleep patterns due to either external factors or some kind of stress/upset, such as bereavement or financial strains. Insomnia, however, is defined by an individual having problems falling asleep, maintaining sleep or experiencing non-restorative sleep on a regular or frequent basis. Pain is one of the most common causes of insomnia.

Caffeine, alcohol and stimulants such as nicotine contribute to sleep disturbance. Health conditions that often lead to insomnia include: hyper-thyroidism, painful conditions, muscular or otherwise, digestive disorders such as reflux, hiatus hernia, stomach ulcers, irritable bowel, nocturnal asthma, heart failure, blocked nose, sinus problems, restless leg syndrome, stress, anxiety and depression. Consult your GP first if you suffer from any of the above or for any medical advice.

If you are suffering with insomnia, do not nap in the day and go to bed as soon as you feel tired. Eat an evening meal high in complex carbohydrates, e.g. boiled rice and avoid heavy meals and sugary foods in the evening as they either stimulate the system or are hard to digest.

One of the most successful complementary approaches to insomnia is acupuncture. In our clinic we offer evidence based therapies such as Needle free laser Acupuncture which can work on balancing the neurological, emotional, muscular and energetic systems.Mindfulness, Massage, Aromatherapy, Reflexology, and Yoga can also assist sleep. Complex Homeopathy, Herbs and Physiological Regulating Medicine(P.R.M) can be of great help and gives excellent results.

In our clinic we use a multi pronged approach in treating this and many other conditions with evidence based therapies such as Low Dose Medicine (L.D.M,), gut health and microbiome restoration, nutritional and nutraceutical therapies, lifestyle medicine, natural hormonal balancing, glandular support, soft tissue and joint support, complex homeopathy, herbals, needle free mesotherapy and needle free acupuncture to achieve excellent results.

With the change in season it is a good time to be thinking about boosting your immunity. Vulnerable people such as children and the elderly, people with low immunity and other susceptible people including asthmatics or people with chronic sinusitis and chronic obstructive airway diseases (COAD) need to pay particular attention to their immunity.

Within thirty minutes of consuming sugar your immune system may be suppressed for several hours. Research shows that after two hours of eating the sugary food your white cell count could be reduced. All processed and fast foods are extremely high in sugar, salt and fat. The intake of such food products should be significantly reduced or avoided completely, if your immune system is to thrive.

Immune deficiency can occur due to several reasons especially if your organs are involved such as spleen, tonsillitis, bone marrow and lymph nodes as these organs release lymphocytes these cell are the ones which fight the invading bacteria, viruses and parasites. Your immune system is also affected if you suffer from other diseases such as HIV, Sickle cell anaemia, Cirrhosis of the liver and other illness or an ongoing stress etc…

By swapping sweets, bars, cakes, biscuits, pastries and buns with fresh fruit, natural yoghurt and cereals such as unsweetened muesli and porridge, you can significantly reduce your sugar intake. It is important to have three well balanced meals a day. These should include fish especially oily fish, nuts, seeds, grains and other foods that are high in fibre. Lean white meats are better than red and fatty meats. Other sustain foods are wholemeal breads made with spelt, wheat or rye flour, brown rice, wholemeal pasta and potatoes with the skins on, if not sprayed with chemicals.

You should drink about two and a half litres of fluid per day, water being the best choice. Avoid all sugary drinks and foods as well as those containing artificial sweeteners. Keep fruit juice made from concentrate to one or two glasses per day and dilute it with water. It has high sugar content in the natural form of fructose. The best drinks are water, green tea, herbal teas and freshly made fruit and vegetable juice. (Carrot, apple juice, elderberries and ginger is a great immune booster). In dark, cold winter days a chicken and vegetable stew with some ginger, garlic, pinch of turmeric and fresh herbs sprinkled over it is a heart warming as well as
