"On 22nd October 2004, I visited Iskra to discuss my painful hands and feet. I had arthritis for 9 years. I have had conventional NHS drug treatment, but it wasn't effective.
Iskra advised a Programme of diet and exercise which has proved very successful in just 3 months. My hands and feet are virtually pain-free and my quality of life has dramatically
improved.
Iskra, thank you very much for your help. Your System has proved very successful and I will continue to use it to ensure that I stay well. " -
Warm regards Janice.

"Having suffered with Osteoarthritis for 15 years and accounting for many conventional prescriptions and hospital visits, I decided to make an appointment to discuss the
"Iskra Health System". The Regimen was relatively easy to follow. I have changed the way that I look at food and the way I look after myself. I have not informed my GP of my visits to Iskra as I have not had any need to visit him!!! ISKRA HEALTH SYSTEM IS WORKING!!!
I have suffered excruciating pain in the past, which at times has been very difficult to cope with, and also difficult for close ones to witness.
After my first visit to Iskra, I experienced two days of pain, and since then I haven't looked back. I am able to take part in things I would have normally only been able to watch; dancing and motorbike riding.
Thank you for the Iskra Healing System!! "

Refer to 'Clinical Medicine, A textbook for medical students and doctors'-Kumar, Clark : "Osteoarthritis. It is the commonest type of arthritis, occurring in about 10% of the population as a whole and in 50% of those aged over 60. It is a disease of cartilage, which becomes eroded and progressively thinned as the disease proceeds.
The pattern of development of joint disease in osteoarthritis is additive.
The disease moves slowly from joint to joint and also progresses very
slowly (in most cases) within individual joints. Its greatest impact is on
weight-bearing joints such as hips and knees, and involvement of these joints is the commonest cause of disability in the elderly population.
Management. There are three main types of treatment: drugs, physical measures and surgery. Obese patients should be encouraged to lose weight but, apart from this, it is seldom possible to alter the aetiological factors of the disease.
- Drug treatment. There is no specific therapy to control the disease
process.
- Physical therapy. The application of heat mat provide pain relief.
Exercises. Hydrotherapy is particularly useful. Walking stick may be useful.
- Surgery. Joint replacements."

"My back pain disappeared and I no longer
need to take painkillers"
- Lucy

Refer to 'Clinical Medicine, A textbook for medical students and doctors' - Kumar, Clark:
Back pain. Back pain is extremely common. It can be mild and transient, or chronic and disabling. In many cases (30%), the exact cause is not established. It is foolish to label such patient as having 'spondylosis' or arthritis of the spine, terms that merely cause anxiety. It is better to use term such as non-specific low back pain and explain what this means.
Treatment. Immobilization in the acute stage and prolonged appropriate antibiotic therapy.'

“I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in February 2000. All
the Doctors said that it would last a lifetime.
I kept a strict IHS diet for two years. It was hard work but on the whole I managed it.
After two years (that is 2002), I found I could eat whole
grains without getting my symptoms like cramps, diarrhea,
constipation, weight loss etc. I began to test some foods like pasta, pizza and bread, three of the things that I had missed
most during 2000 -2002.

I began using small amounts, but later increased to larger and larger amounts.
I felt just as I had before the Doctors diagnosis.I contacted my Doctor who took new blood samples and believe it or not, the tiny villuses on the inside of my intestine that absorb nutrition, had returned to their normal condition and size.
I was told ‘It's a miracle, you are well’.

To hear those words gave me an unbelievable sense of
freedom. Since that day I have felt fine, none of the symptoms have returned.
I believe keeping Iskra's strict diet from the start helped me.”
Jennie (21 years) from Sweden, written March 2005

Refer to 'Clinical Medicine, A textbook for medical students and doctors' - Kumar, Clark:
Food allergy and food intolerance.
Celiac disease (gluten-sensitive enteropathy). Celiac disease can present at any age. In infancy it appears after weaning on to gluten-containing foods.
The peak incidence in adults is in the third and fourth decade, with a female preponderance. The symptoms are very variable and often non-specific with tiredness and malaise. Common symptoms include diarrhea or steatorrhoea, abdominal discomfort or pain and weight loss. Mouth ulcers and angular stomatitis are frequent and can be intermittent. Rare complications include tetany, osteomalacia, neurological symptoms such as paraesthesia, muscle weakness or peripheral neuropathy, or gross malnutrition with peripheral edema. Atopy, autoimmune disease, including thyroid disease, insulin-dependent diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, chronic liver disease, and fibrosing allergic alveolitis. Anemia. Malnutrition.
Treatment and Management. A gluten-free diet usually produces a rapid improvement. The long-term effects of this low gluten intake are uncertain.
Complications. A few patients do not improve on a strict diet (unresponsive 'celiac disease'). Often no cause for this is found. The incidence of small-intestinal lymphoma is increased in celiac disease. Also carcinoma of the small bowel and esophagus, extra-gastrointestinal cancers."

- MILK ALLERGY -
Hallo Iskra,
ich suche schon seit einiger Zeit nach einem Medikament
gegen meine Milchallergie.

Nur dank deiner Hilfe kann ich mir schon leisten ganz normal
Milchprodukte zu essen.

Früher bin ich immer nachts wach gevorden und konnte nicht
atmen, weil meine Schleimhaut in der Nase ziemlich dick war.
Die vom Arzt verschriebene Nasentropfen konnten mir auch
nicht mehr helfen. Es war fürchterlich.

Ich merkte schon in den ersten Tagen, seit dem ich von dir
verschriebenen Diätangefangen habe, eine Verbesserung.

Ein paar Monate später war ich bei einem Geburtstag. Ich
konnte einfach nicht wiederstehen  den  leckeren Kuchen zu
kosten. Ich war positiv überrascht, als ich in den nächsten
paar Stunden keine Atemkomplikationen bekommen hab.

Seit diesem Augenblick genieße ich den leckeren Käse und
besonders Milchschokolade.:)
Besten Dank! Lyubka - Germany

- Kumar, Clark:
Food allergy and food intolerance. Some foods, e.g. milk, egg, fish and
wheat, have a very strong tendency to sensitize, while others are fairly innocuous. Cross-sensitization between related vegetables, e.g. soybeen and peas, also occurs. However, the nature of the actual allergen in any particular food is still uncertain.
Symptoms of allergy may be immediate or delayed:
- Immediate symptoms start within a few hours of ingestion of the particular
food, with swelling of the lips or tongue, vomiting, rhinorrhoea, urticaria, eczema, asthma or migraine.
- Delayed symptoms may develop hours or even days after the ingestion and causal relationship between the ingestion of the food and the symptoms is often difficult to prove.
Management: Avoidance of suspected food; Desensitization therapy using injections or oral or nasal administration has been used for immediate reaction, but with little success; In allergic diseases where the antigen is known, e.g. cow's milk protein intolerance in children and celiac disease, patients should be treated with a milk-free or gluten-free diet, respectively;
There is no specific drug therapy.'

"I have had depression on and off for
most of my adult life.
The Iskra Healing System has with simple methods, given me
the tools to combat my depression.
I was prescribed only natural products.
The results came very quickly.

I was amazed!

I thought my depression was based on my mind set. I now
realize that this natural way of healing helps not only my
body to become balanced, but also my mind."  - Denis

UK suffer from psychiatric ill-health. Most of the illnesses are minor mood disorders, taking the form of various combinations of depression and anxiety, and about two-thirds are short-lived in nature and clear within 6 months. However, about 5% of general practice consultations involve patients suffering from major depression requiring energetic treatment - schizophrenia and manic-depressive illnesses, but they are much less common . The common disorders are associated
with physical disease or caused by certain physical treatments as well as disorders related to alcohol and other forms of drug use and abuse. Two conditions presenting in women and characterized by disturbance of mood may well be related to manic-depressive disorders. These are the premenstrual syndrome and puerperal affective disorders.
-Physical and psychiatric disorders often coincide:
Patients with psychiatric problems can present with physical manifestations (e.g. the irritable bowel syndrome);
Chronic or severe physical ill-health can result in psychiatric disorder (e.g. depression in the setting of a chronic painful disorder);
Psychiatric symptoms can be part of a physical disease complex (e.g.
depression in hypothyroidism).
Treatment. It involves physical, psychological and social therapies.
Hospitalization is required in case of severely depressed, potentially suicidal patients and in mania. Depression and mania do not respond to psychotherapy, and both require energetic physical treatment. Simple support, reassurance, sympathy and the opportunity to express distress and negative feelings are often sufficient to bring about relief of minor depressive episodes.
Physical treatment of depression - antidepressants, ECT (electroconvulsive therapy).
- The antidepressants have a number of side-effects: dry mouth, constipation, tremor, blurred vision, urinary retention, postural hypotension, Cardiac effects (ECG changes, arrhythmias), lowered seizure threshold, increased appetite, weight gain, difficulty in sleeping, sedation, mania, agranulocytosis, liver damage.
- Electroconvulsive therapy - Serious complications are rare. Short-term retrograde amnesia, temporary defect in new learning. The mode of action of ECT is unclear.

"I was diagnosed with a sinus condition, which led to the
throat and mucus membrane in the stomach.
    After following Iskra's prescription the changes began to
happen and after four to five weeks the condition had
cleared up completely.
    Through this period I had more energy throughout the day
also I slept better than I had done before.
    I feel a lot healthier with this change and will continue with
my complete change in diet.
    Thanks Iskra for your help and advice."      Mr.C.Piper

"I came to see Iskra around 2 months ago with various aches,
pains and tiredness.

Iskra made me an eating plan for my first 2 weeks and then a
diet with various vitamin supplements.

I had some fatty deposits as lumps on my body, which have all
gone.

I have lost some excess weight and I also feel much better in
myself."

Bästa Iskra,
Fick reda på att jag hade Celiaki februari 2000. Alla läkare
sa att det var livslångt. Du däremot sa att man kan bli frisk,
men att jag skulle förbereda mig på en livslång sjukdom
för att inte bli besviken.   Jag höll sträng diet i 2 års tid och
det var jobbigt, men jag klarade det för det mesta.?

Efter två ar, alltså 2002 upptäckte jag att jag kunde få i mig
alla  sädesslag utan att  få alla mina symtom som kramper,
diarré eller förstoppning,  viktminskning osv.
Jag började testa en del maträtter som pasta och pizzanormala och
jag fick istället höra, "Det ärett mirakel du är frisk". Det
var en otrolig befrielse att få höra de orden. Sen dess har jag
mått bra och inte fått  några symtom tillbaka. Jag tror att
det hjälpte mig att bli frisk pga att jag höll till Iskras stränga
diet från början.

Jennie (21 years)- Sweden och
bröd, tre av de saker jag hade saknat mest under de två
åren mellan 2000-2002. Först i små mängder sen ökade jag
till större doser och allt kändes som innan jag fick diagnosen.

Jag fick kontakt med en läkare som tog nya blodprov och tro
det eller ej, mitt tarmluddhade återgått till det
