Posted by admin on February 13th, 2010


  

When you were looking for natural treatments for PCOS, you probably might have come across a mysterious fruit named Garcinia Cambogia right? You might be wonder what is Brindal Berry, Malabar Tamarind or Garcinia Cambogia and how does it help to cure PCOS or ovarian cysts?

Well, this article is to shed more light on the benefits of consuming Garcinia Cambogia and where can you buy it in United States.

Garcinia cambogia is a small fruit that resembles a miniature pumpkin. It is indigenous to India and parts of Asia, and an extract from its fruit and rind is popular in many natural weight loss products. The extract of this fruit is hydroxycitric acid (HCA), claimed to suppress appetite and enhance fat-burning. The dried rind of this berry is used as a condiment of flavouring fish curries in Kerala, India. They help the body metabolize carbohydrates instead of storing them as fat. Brindall berries or Garcinia Cambogia also suppresses food cravings, reduce appetite and increasing insulin sensitivity.

Dried Brindall Berries or Kudampuli

Garcinia cambogia also known as Gambooge, Malabar Tamarind, (or Kudampuli in Malayalam – a native language of Kerala) is an essential ingredient in all the seafood kitchens in Kerala, the coastal Southern Indian state. As the name suggests (Puli = sour in Malayalam), the dried fruit is used as a souring agent in Kerala’s famous fish curries and other seafood preparations.

Kudampuli is known for its medicinal values in Ayurveda. It helps to promote digestion, and a decoction made out of it is used against Arthritis and uterine disorders. It is also known to cure gastric or stomach ulcers.

So consuming a clove of Garcinia Cambogia can greatly help to treat insulin resistance, the root cause of PCOS and also helps in metabolizing the stored excess fats thereby reversing the PCOS and infertility.

As explained in this article on root cause of PCOS, I also suggest you to consume bitter gourd, pomegranate and fenugreek seeds along with Garcinia Cambogia (Kudampuli) to cure PCOS or Ovarian Cysts completely and naturally.

As far as where you can buy it, you can find the dried brindall berry fruit in most Indian Grocers. Ask for ‘Kudumpuli’ or Malabar Tamarind.

Causes and Risk Factors of Ovarian Cysts – The Primary Causes

Posted by admin on February 8th, 2010

To understand more about why an ovary cysts may occur, or you experience ovary cyst symptoms, we have detailed they key areas to look at.

1. Genetic predisposition is often considered to be the primary cause of ovarian cyst as research has shown that the genetic pattern of women who suffer from this chronic condition is different as compared to women who never get ovarian cysts or PCOS. However, this should not be a death warrant as many times the genetic characteristics can be modified with the help of environmental factors and proper lifestyle related changes.

2. Weakened Immune System: A weakened immune system, for one of many different reasons, including something as simple as sleep deprivation or malnutrition, or as complex as a serious disease, may inadvertently result in the formation of ovarian cysts as the body is less able to protect itself.

3. A hormonal imbalance can result from certain types of diet. This can increase the chance of an ovarian cyst forming. Carbohydrates and processed food for example can impact your immue system, which as we have already mentioned can reduce the likelihood of your body defending itself against ovarian cysts. It is also important to maintain fresh vegetables in your diet to ensure that toxins are removed with the normal process associated with fresh veg.

4. Resistance to Insulin: A resistance to insulin may also lead to ovarian cysts as too much of this natural substance causes the ovaries to produce abnormal amounts of the male hormone androgen, also reducing the levels of SHBG, another hormone that is known to aggravate the condition.

5. A Lack of Ovulation: In some women, their ovaries do not release an egg as normal each month, and in turn, fail to produce adequate amounts of the hormone progesterone causing a hormonal imbalance within the body, and eventually, leading to the development of ovarian cysts.

There are many primary factors, which lead to ovarian cysts. These factors should not be isolated however, as sometimes the combination of these factors can together lead to the causes of ovarian cysts.

Because the condition of ovarian cysts is complex, a combined approach of treatment is preferable to traditional forms of treatment. A holistic approach is necessary, combining lifestyle changes with scientific treatment. By following this approach, the treatment of ovarian cysts can be successful.
