Attitude

Scurf Rim

At the periphery of the iris, in what we call zone 7, is found the area of the integument: skin, hair and nails. When a darkened area is observed here, it is called a scurf rim.  It may be only in a portion of the periphery or it may encircle it entirely. It may be thin, wispy area or it can penetrate deep into the interior. When this area shows up dark, it represents an underactive, slowly eliminating skin. Toxic elements and metabolic waste materials are accumulating here.

The skin is a two-way membrane allowing an exchange of moisture and air in and out of the body. Toxic materials can easily penetrate the skin when it is exposed to solvents, fixative paints, fertilizers, pollutants and other air- or water-borne chemicals.

The skin is a vital organ and must eliminate toxic materials daily just as the bowl and lungs. In fact, they say we should eliminate about two pounds of waste per day from the skin. By wearing heavy, close-fitting clothing,  the skin backs up in its ability to eliminate these toxic substances.

This is also believed to be caused by thinning of iris fibers in that zone, and is also considered a structural sign. It is a genetic sign and does not go away. It may lighten up some with proper care and treatment of the skin, but never really goes away entirely. It may indicate a potential tendency for skin conditions such as ache, psoriasis, and eczema to name a few.

There are several ways to help the skin if you know you have this sign. You could, prior to bathing, use a skin brush to help open the pores, make sure you limit the amount of lotions that you use. This tends to close the pores and not allow the skin to breath. Wear fairly loose clothing will also allow skin breathing. If you have access to a steam sauna, the heat and steam may also be help in the long run.

150. History of Bone Spurs

Bones spurs are bony projections associated with osteoarthritis. From a function perspective, they are associated with a primary mineral insufficiency, digestive dysfunction and thyroid hypo-function. Bone spurs many also be a sign of fluoride toxicity. which is associated with a calcium deficiency. Heel spurs respond well to B12 supplementation, with the appropriate digestive support.

Bone spurs are also associated with the deposition of bone into the inappropriate tissue. This is a sign of aberrant calcium metabolism, and possibly an alkalinity of the blood. Calcium is one of the minerals in the family of alkaline minerals that act as carbonic salts to neutralize acidity. When these salts react with an acid they form an alkaline salt the is easily excreted from the kidney. Calcium, as one of the major buffers of the blood, will begin to precipitate out of solution when the blood pH begins to drift from optimal. The calcium will cause problems as it settle into the tissues causing not only bone spurs, but also cataracts, kidney stones, and even bursitis.
