TEMPERING ALBINO (from Ayurveda & Greek Medicine)
Study HerbsMaster Personalized Wellness with these Diet, Lifestyle & Herbs Certification Courses
Albinism is a rare genetic condition in which a person lacks pigment of the skin and hair. The skin is generally very pale, and the eyes can appear pink in color. It is a congenital disorder, meaning it is present from birth.
Albinism occurs when a person is unable to produce the pigment melanin. Your ability to produce and distribute melanin will determine your skin color. People with darker skin are able to produce and distribute melanin more efficiently than those with fairer skin.
In Ayurveda, the blood (rakta dhatu) and the liver (ranjaka pitta) are responsible for giving color and luster to the skin. While albinism is a genetic disorder, neither parent may suffer from the condition, but can be carriers of the gene mutation and pass it down to their offspring.
There is no cure for albinism, but the symptoms can be managed. The skin tends to be very sensitive, so avoiding UV rays and ensuring sun protection with sunscreen and protective clothing is essential. Use a natural sunscreen as opposed to chemical based varieties as your skin absorbs whatever you put on it. As eyes tend to be sensitive, sunglasses are also important on bright days.
Topical poultices and herbal teas that strengthen the blood and the skin, such as aloe vera and manjistha, may be useful if the skin has been damaged. They will not have an effect on pigmentation, but may help strengthen and protect the highly sensitive skin.

HOW TO ADDRESS ISSUES IN STAGE OF DISEASE #4
ALBINO IS IN STAGE OF DISEASE #4 -
TISSUE DISEASEIf you have symptoms in this category it means your imbalances have overwhelmed your body's resistance causing a full-fledged disease.
Once imbalance reaches this stage it is more likely to cause acute or chronic conditions.
You might be tempted to focus your attention on fighting symptoms in this category, but dismiss earlier warning signs of imbalance - i.e. symptoms in the stage 1 category.
It is ideal to find and address the root causes weakening your system and remove them first.
This ensures you are not adding fuel to the fire of disease.
Once the root causes are removed, you can work on addressing the disease head on along with strengthening your body.
This typically yields a quicker recovery and prevents recurrence.
Ayurveda's preventative approach suggests you pay careful attention to every stage of disease development.

AVOID DIETS, LIFESTYLES & HERBS THAT AGGRAVATE THESE BIOCHARACTERISTICS
According to Personalized Medicine Systems (Ayurveda and Greek medicine), aggravation of any of these
body types
and
biocharacteristics may lead to 'Albino'.

Symptoms Tell A Story
The first step to healing is learning patterns from your symptoms.
Symptoms are clues that reveal underlying imbalances.
Symptoms show you where your body is weakened.
Ultimately, all disease has a root in tissues too weak to defend itself.
Ayurveda describes these patterns of weakness using doshas & biocharacteristics.
If you notice a biocharacteristic or dosha appears next to many of your symptoms,
it helps you establish a pattern that may be systemic.

HOW AYURVEDA WORKS
ARE YOU WONDERING HOW AYURVEDA CAN HELP YOU?
WHY IS AYURVEDA THE RIGHT SOLUTION?
Ayurveda strengthens the body while opposing disorders. It takes a holistic,
systemic approach that looks at the whole body. Ayurveda
shows how to interpret signs and symptoms of imbalance, and how to address them
using diet, lifestyle adjustments, and herbs. It shows a person how to optimize their health on a continual basis. You can't
take the doctor home with you, but you can take Ayurveda home with you.
Ayurveda is the most advanced and easy to use home system for self healing.
HOW DOES AYURVEDA WORK?
Ayurveda starts by identifying your
body type,
which identifies certain tendencies in your body to get sick (as well as identifying your strengths).
It uses body type to determine the likely root causes of your disorders.
Next, Ayurveda analyzes the nature of your disorder.
It fits all your signs and symptoms into a pattern, expressed as a combination of
biocharacteristics (gunas).
For example, you may have a heat disorder, a cold disorder, or an oily disorder, etc.
This simple categorical approach shows you how to correct systemic imbalances and strengthen your body as a whole.
On Joyful Belly, we've created an extensive categorization of food so you can easily match food to your imbalanced biocharacteristics.
By eating an optimal diet that balances your biocharacteristics, your whole body is strengthened
and the conditions that created the disorder are removed. Once the root causes of the disease
are removed, the disease lessens in strength or disappears altogether. Additional remedies -
such as herbs and lifestyle practices - focused on the specific disorder, can greatly enhance
your healing.
GET STARTED
To get started on your Ayurvedic journey, we first recommend that your find your body
type by taking our free quiz. In Ayurveda, every solution is based on your unique body type, so
by taking this quiz, you’ll get the best results.
