WHAT IS EUSTACHIAN EAR?Written by Jane Kriese
Eustachian Ear is name given to medical problem that arises when Eustachian tube in middle ear is blocked. In ear, Eustachian tube normally allows middle ear to drain into throat. There is drainage because middle ear has a fairly constant liquid which keeps middle ear space moist and allows liquid to drain down into throat. This tube can be blocked for many reasons; common cold, sinusitis, nasal allergy, throat infection, food allergies and sometimes in small children, large adenoids. When Eustachian tube is blocked pressure in middle ear cannot be equalized. If blockage continues, fluid will build up. Make no mistake, this can be very serious. To assist your body to cure this problem there are simple things you can do. Clean your ears well all time.

The food you choose to eat, can be your answer to a healthy vibrant body or it can be cause of your sick body. The fact is we need good nutrition for good health. Good nutrition can be broken into four categories: water, carbohydrates, protein and fat. WATER; water is an essential nutrient involved in every function of body. It helps transport nutrients and waste products in and out of cells. We need to drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of filtered water each day. CARBOHYDRATES; carbohydrates supply body with energy. The best carbohydrates are from plants and include: fruits, vegetables, legumes (peas, beans) or milk and milk products. Young children need higher amounts of dairy products as they grow. Adults should refrain from too many dairy products, because they are acid forming foods. To learn more about acid forming foods and how it relates to our health, refer to; www.herbs4health.net and read article called “The Fountain Of Youth”. PROTEIN; Protein is essential for growth and development, it provides energy and is required to manufacture hormones, antibodies, enzymes and tissue. The correct proteins also help maintain proper acid-alkaline balance in body. Protein can be found in meat, fish, poultry, eggs, hemp hearts, grains, legumes, leafy green vegetables, beans, brown rice, some nuts, milk and dairy products. FATS; fat is most concentrated source of energy. Children require more fat for normal brain development. All humans need fat to provide energy to body.We get our fat from animal and dairy products, as well as different types of oil such as; olive oil, coconut oil, hemp oil, vegetable shortening and many other types of commercially prepared oils. Some fats are good for us and others are not. It is important for a person to research information on good fats versus bad fats.
