The boy came in for several treatments but he only improved a little. His mother never really believed my opinions about her son’s diet, and each time I had to explain it until my mouth felt dry. Sometimes we even debated. I said: “These cases are not new to me; if you co-operate with me, your boy will be better soon.” But she was still attached to the thought that nutrition is good for a growing boy.
After a few more treatments and continuous advice about her son’s condition, she began to accept my opinions. I also mentioned that in ancient times, people knew how to drink ordinary tea, and they did not ask for too fine tea; they ate light meals that were neither too salty nor too rich. This practice is in accordance with modern science. We continued our talks during treatments, and the boy was the first to understand the situation. He urged his mother to cook less rich food for him. I also told him to do more exercise.
As time passed by, the boy’s dizziness decreased and the mother realized that I might be right. But one day, the young boy called me and said, “Doctor, I feel dizzy and I am going to fall down!” I said, “No!” He said, “I really believe I am going to fall down now.” I said, “Try to walk very fast around the house and you won’t fall. Right now I am very busy, but call me back later.” He did call back and reported that he did not fall down. He asked, “Why?” I told him that his dizziness was caused by his stomach congestion, but not energy deficiency. The more they believed, the more they cut down on the rich foods, and the boy continued to get better and better until finally he did not need further treatment.
Treatment Principles:
Excessive energy
This is funny but true. It's a matter of 'Equalization', not particularly relating to nutrition, food, resources or anything.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely agree with Dr. Ng about this little boy's health condition. In today's society, a lot of parents make heavy meals for their kids. However, the parents do not recognize the food already exceed what the kids need. I hope Dr. Ng's story can wake up a lot of parents, which is "too much is not good".
