The first thing most people think of when they hear calcium is “MILK” But
The typical reaction when someone is told to eliminate something from their diet — something they love — is often disappointment and denial. Our food habits are so engrained that reforming those habits can be challenging, but the way we handle these challenge is what helps us develop in life and our health.

Myth about calcium and bone strengths.

Calcium is an essential nutrient that should be a part of every healthy diet, but many people grew up hearing that the best way to consume it is by drinking milk or eating dairy products. Now we know this may not be the best idea.

Introduction on Adulteration of Milk.

If you are not getting pure A2 milk (which does not seems possible after giving Rs110 /litre still milk was adulterated).

suggested you should read below topic and think.

Milk adulteration is a serious problem in India. There are reports which suggest that 68 per cent of milk in India is adulterated with products like glucose, caustic soda, white paints, oil or even detergents. Chemicals like hydrogen peroxide, boric acid and antibiotics, that help increase mill’s shelf life, are harmful for human health. A recent report by the Consumer Guidance Society of India (CGSI) in Maharashtra said that 78 per cent of the milk samples tested were below FSSAI standards.

So Personally

what We suggest is green juices and smoothies are my numero uno recommendation, but second is always…dumping dairy.

That’s right, go dairy-free if not getting pure A2 milk .For A2 milk refer my previous article on milk.

You’re gonna learn a lot about dairy in a minute, but here are a few of the main reasons we removed it from our diet.

The biggest advantage was Dhruva struggling with Autism and its side-effects due to this Adulterated milk.

The moment milk was out of his diet most of the Symptoms of Autism Subsided..My son had 2 Root canals due to this Adulterated milk.

(Adulterated)Dairy is high in saturated fat (which can lead to stroke and heart attacks), it’s highly inflammatory (the root cause of many chronic diseases), and the growth hormones in dairy (ex. IGF1) can stimulate malignant cell growth and proliferation Cancer too.

FROM my personal experience with around hundreds of kids now in my group “AUTISM CURE POSSIBLE” and our health too saying “adieu to dairy”can totally transform your health. So even if you’re not keen on ditching your milkshakes and brie today, I invite you to learn a little more about these non dairy Calcium rich food. Even lessening the amount of dairy you consume can make a REAL DIFFERENCE in how you feel.

Dairy ,If your child is lactose intolerant or allergic to the proteins found in dairy, you may see changes in her mood and behaviour. Many children become irritable, cranky, or aggressive. … Babies may exhibit colicky symptoms, whereas toddlers and older children may become inconsolable and irritable. Children with dairy allergies or intolerance also tend to suffer from frequent colds and ear infections.

some kids especially kids on SPECTRUM cannot consume dairy due to either allergies, sensitivities, or personal choice IRRITATION caused due to TOXINS in milk..

So, it becomes necessary that we replace it with other sources. What are the foods that are rich in calcium besides milk?

Why do some people not want to drink milk?

  • Some people do not like the smell of milk, so they avoid drinking it.
  • People with Lactose Intolerance will have problems with digesting milk. Their body will resist milk. This is a hereditary problem.
  • Those who follow vegan diet will not eat or consume anything that has its source in an animal.
  • Having doubts regarding the quality of milk they get, will make some people stay away from it..

Small comparison of lactose intorrence and lactose digestion.

How dairy impacts your health

A cow drinks cow’s milk when it’s a baby. A bunny drinks bunny’s milk when it’s a baby. Beyond a certain age, even they know that it’s freaky to suckle. And do you ever see them switch and swap? The only time milk is essential for good health is when we are babies, being breastfed by human mothers.

Human breast milk is nature’s perfect formula for human babies. It’s rich in good fats like DHA for brain development, but it’s relatively low in protein.

Cow’s milk contains more than three times as much protein as breast milk. That’s because baby cows need a lot more protein. They grow to between 1,500 and 2,000 pounds. Is that your desired weight?

While the protein in human milk is designed for human bodies, much of the protein in cow’s milk is difficult for humans to digest. In addition, the over-consumption of this protein can lead to serious health conditions.

One of the professor emeritus of nutritional biochemistry at Cornell University, found that the protein that consistently creates and promotes cancer is casein, which makes up about 87 percent of the protein in cow’s milk. According to Professor a diet that contains more than 10 percent protein (that’s about 50 grams of protein if you’re consuming 2,000 calories per day) can lead to the little “c.”

Forget spooky, life-threatening diseases, let’s talk about simpler pickles. Ever pass a kidney stone? If you have, then you know that it’s incredibly painful— feels like shooting an elephant through your pee hole!

How about ,Gut inflammation, an inflammation blow-out sale? Both of these not-so-happy afflictions have been linked to dairy consumption.

Allergies, eczema, asthma, arthritis, inflammation, and zits can all be linked to dairy. What about skim milk or non fat milk? They’re just as bad.

For me, cheese and curd was the hardest thing to give up, but once I did, my Migraine HEADACHES DISAPPEARED . I also started to FEEL SO RELAXED.

How about tummy pain, gas and bloating? Well, there may be a good reason for your belly’s aching. According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, around 75 percent of the world’s adults can’t digest milk (they’re lactose-intolerant).

This article will provide a list of calcium-rich foods that come from non-dairy sources.

So now coming to question .

what IS CALCIUM EXACTLY !

What is calcium?

Calcium is a type of mineral. A Grown-up adult needs around 1000 to 1200mg of calcium a day. Though its needed quantity is much less, it is extremely important. Our body is not capable of manufacturing calcium on its own. So, we need to supplement it from external sources.

Why do we need calcium?

  • For growth of teeth and bones.
  • Proper functioning of nervous system
  • Improving muscle strength
  • Maintaining heart’s health
  • For proper functioning of various hormones in our body

Our body spends 99% of the calcium it gets to bones and teeth, a mere 1% is spent on other tasks.The body needs calcium which is stored in bones and teeth to carry out many functions. Besides giving us healthy bones and teeth, calcium help muscles move and helps nerves carry messages between the brain and other body parts. It also helps move blood through blood vessels.

CALCIUM is one of those minerals that always seem to concern us as a consumer, as an adult and as a parent. Why?

Calcium is a strong contributor to the strength and structure found in our bones and our teeth. Not only that, but it also helps maintain the heart’s rhythm, it ensures movement in our muscles and it assists transporting blood throughout our body.

Calcium plays a critical role in releasing hormones and enzymes that impact our body’s function which help prevent and control high blood pressure, reduce PMS symptoms and manage mineral levels found in our blood including magnesium, phosphorus and potassium. .

No wonder our parents kept insisting that we consume enough dairy as a source of calcium while growing up.

But, where will I get NON DAIRY CALCIUM?

This is probably the most frequently asked question when talking about going dairy-free. Good news!

Nature’s best calcium sources are dark leafy greens such as kale, collards, mustard greens, and turnip greens. The calcium in these foods is absorbed at double the rate of dairy calcium. About 30 percent of dairy calcium is absorbed whereas about 60 percent of calcium from dark leafy greens is absorbed. Other rich plant sources of calcium include beans, almonds, figs, and fortified non dairy milks such as unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, hemp milk, and rice milk.

Leafy Green Vegetables including Broccoli, bok choy, Chinese cabbage
Fish including sardines and canned fish (with bones)
Nuts and seeds including brazil nuts, almonds and tahini (sesame seed paste)
Calcium-fortified foods including breakfast cereals, fruit juices and bread Soy and tofu products if they are fortified with calcium. Look for at least 100mg calcium/100mL on the nutrient information panel.

Note: please prepare these milk at home itself..drink fresh prepared ones.Avoid tetra pack one’s.

When it comes to bone health, calcium isn’t the only factor. Overall diet and activity levels determine bone health and even calcium needs. Countries with the highest calcium intake have the most osteoporosis, so there’s obviously more to the bone-health story than calcium alone.

What Happens If There Is Too Less Calcium?

Calcium deficiency would trigger a multi-functional setback, given its critical role in the metabolism and maintenance of your body. Following are the symptoms of calcium deficiency or hypocalcaemia .

1.Numbness of fingertips and toes.
2.Muscle cramps
3.Convulsions
4.Lethargy
5.Poor appetite
6.Arrhythmia
7.Rickets (if coupled with vitamin D deficiency)
8.Random neuromuscular irritability.
9.Chronic renal failure
10.Pancreatitis
11.Cardiovascular disease.

To avoid such repercussions, it is best to have a balanced diet rich in calcium as well.

Why Vitamin D is responsible for calcium absorption ?

Here’s another helpful factoid, vitamin D—which is necessary for calcium absorption and is best obtained from 20 minutes of sunshine 3 times a week during summer months and fortified, nondairy foods or supplements during winter months—is now being considered the most important nutrient in bone health.

Kids need vitamin D to help the body absorb calcium. Without it, calcium can’t get where it needs to go to build strong bones.

Vitamin D isn’t in many foods that kids eat. Because of this, health care providers often recommend supplement

But it’s free of cost available from Sun then why to pay.

Bottom line: A diet rich in plant foods easily meets calcium needs. Check out this handy infographic for even more info on your calcium needs and plant-based sources.

How much calcium can your body absorb at a time?

Your body can take up about 500 mg of calcium at a time. Although the daily requirement is approximately 1000-1200 mg, it is better to split the total into small doses of 500 mg across the day. This would ensure maximum absorption of calcium.

How do you determine the levels of calcium in your body?

Levels of calcium in your body can be determined by taking a simple blood test. It can help you diagnose calcium deficiency or calcium excess. The result indicates the amount of calcium circulating freely in the blood, but not that stored in bones.

The reference range for calcium in adults is 8.6 mg/dL to 10.2 mg/dL, and for children, it varies from lab to lab.

There are many foods that contain calcium, as well as many other wonderful vitamins and nutrients. Almonds and sesame seeds, which we give daily to DHRUVA are great sources of calcium.

So is collards, celery, avocados, onions, green beans, and asparagus. The lesser eaten prickly pear, okra, gooseberries and dandelion greens are also great sources of calcium.

Not only this calcium is great for our bones and helps to prevent osteoporosis, but it is also helpful in lowering high blood pressure.

Dairy, on the other hand, which most people think of as the needed source of calcium, actually causes mucus (which leads to respiratory problems) and is typically laden with hormones and pesticides from the cow feed.

Dairy is also acid-forming when metabolize and most dairy products are pasteurised to kill harmful bacteria but this process also kills the good vitamins, proteins, and enzymes. Research also leads dairy products with arthritis.

Choose better ways to get your calcium than through milk and dairy products. By eating lots of leafy greens and nuts you will also reap the many other benefits of these natural and delicious foods.

Beyond childhood, most people stop producing the enzyme lactase, which is needed to digest lactose (the sugar in milk). Yeah, your body thinks you should wean, too. I’ve never met someone who didn’t feel better once they removed dairy from their diet. Sorry folks, but all good things come to an end.

BEWARE !!!

Calcium supplements are synthetic formulations of calcium compounds. Most of these are safe for human consumption BUT IF ALL THE CALCIUM IS FROM NON DAIRY SOURCES THEN WHY TO RELY ON DAIRY SOURCES

TOE WALKING HOW TO CORRECT IT AT HOME ITSELF by Sneha Narayan

Completed my article on TOE WALKING AND HOW TO OVERCOME IT 100% FOR MY SON WE DID IT… ..many parents requested me to write on this topic and its my favorite topic too as lots of memories are attached to this topic.

EARLIER whenever I used to search TOE WALKING CURE for MY SON ONLINE every where used to read same things again and again that
Persistent toe walking is “idiopathic,” which means that the exact cause is not known. Older children who continue to toe walk may do so simply out of habit or because the muscles and tendons in their calves have become tighter over time.

WE WENT TO MANY THERAPIST AND DOCTORS, ASKED SOLUTIONS ABOUT HOW TO OVERCOME IT BUT DID NOT GOT ANY SATISFACTORY ANSWERS..

They just suggested me to go for occupational therapy and get heighted shoes and if not corrected then later some surgery to be done .let him wear some braces and what not..they suggested us casting, botulinum toxin injections and surgery may be last resort options if conservative treatment we became so worried as to how to correct it .. it became a serious concern in my life..

These worries used to haunt me day and night what will happen to my son now.Will he never walk like others kids???..and what about his pain !!!!! was feeling v helpless until read an article on HYPTONIA (LOW AND HIGH MUSCLE TONE) and thats it got all my answers to why my son is on his TOES ALL THE TIME..and this problem is due to extremely tight Achilles tendons.
so started our journey toward the correction of TOE WALKING for my son.

LETS START OUR JOURNEY NOW..

TOPICS TO BE COVERED

  • WHAT IS TOE WALKING AND MY JOURNEY IN BRIEF
  • CAUSES OF TOE WALKING
  • WHY MOSTLY KIDS DETECTED WITH AUTISM HAVE TOE WALKING
  • MYTHS AROUND TRETEMENT
  • SOLUTION HOW TO CORRECT IT.

WHAT IS TOE WALKING

main-qimg-519451f9978c9f09f32a54e22c6728be-c

Toe walking is a pattern of walking in which a child walks on balls of his or her feet, with no contact between the heels and ground. Toe walking is common in children who are learning to walk. After the age of 2, however, most children outgrow toe walking and begin to walk with a normal heel-to-toe pattern.

Walking on the toes can be a normal part of motor development, usually occurring in the first 12-18mth after commencing walking and should pass by 2-3 years of age. In this case, children will stand and walk on the toes some of the time for short periods only and otherwise demonstrate normal development and a good repertoire of motor skills across other areas. There is no need to be concerned about this type of toe-walking.

When might toe-walking cause concern then, and why? We know that toe-walking is common in certain neuromuscular conditions and AUTISM is one of them.

When my son use to walk on toes since he was 2 yrs of age i thought its normal but it became our concern when after he was 3 yrs he still was on his toes.Til the time he was awake he was on his toes walking.Now it became a serious threat to his legs as it use to pain and he uses to fell down most of the times. when i started his therapy we were also going to football classes where I have seen kids with 10 years of age walking on toes so it was very horrifying for me I have seen kids having braces in the foot coming to the occupational therapy classes even heard that some kids need surgery to correct it but I did not wanted all this sufferings for my son so I started searching for some alternative treatments which I did not found on internet but read in a book .So sharing my experience that we did to make my son come out 100% of this TOE WALKING PROBLEM.

We Consulted many doctors but they said its basic cause is not detected and it can be one of the symptoms of Autism .Again was tensed that he was normal till 2 yrs of age then why these problems are arising.

Consulted many doctors but the causes were unknown and again got no solution..Then after reading an article on MUSCLE TONE realized yes thats it got a reason its due to either LOW OR HIGH MUSCLE TONE..and now AFTER 6 MONTHS MY SON IS 100% OUT OF THIS PROBLEM..SO SHARING HOW WE OVERCAME THIS PROBLEM FOR OUR SON..HOPE IT HELPS ALL THE PARENTS IN SAME SITUATION.

Exam/Assessment

In order to best determine an ideal treatment protocol, a comprehensive history should be taken. Children who ambulate later or skip developmental milestones which limit weight bearing, often present with TOE WALKING later on.

  • Does the child toe walk when wearing shoes?
  • Do you notice more or less toe walking when WALKING barefoot on different surfaces? For instance sand at beach, grass at park, hard wood floor, carpet.
  • Is the child able to achieve and maintain full range of motion at ankle?
  • W SITTING VERY FREQUENT

    “W-sitting” is a term used to describe a sitting position in which the child’s bottom is on the floor while their feet are splayed out to the sides – forming a “W” shape with the legs and knees.W-sitting may seem like a benign position that many children utilize, but it comes with many negative implications.

    w-sitting2

  • Chief among these are the fact that W-sitting:
    • Promotes poor posture
    • Discourages activation of trunk muscles leading to deficits in balance
    • Inhibits exploration and movement between positions
    • Keeps children confined to play only in midline
    • May lead to hamstring tightness, tibial torsion and hip dislocation

    Never allow the kid to sit in W position.Always prompt the kid to sit in leg folded manner.We use to prompt and correct our kid position every minute in a day around 100 times we us to correct it..

Prevention is the best method if you can catch the pattern early on. Children build foundational skills, and develop compensatory strategies as needed. Let the child know about and experience alternative sitting positions. Be consistent. When you see the child W-sitting, help to correct it. Occasionally children utilize the W-sitting position when transitioning from creeping on hands and knees to sitting on the floor. From all fours, the child simply parts the knees and plops his or her bottom down between them, resulting in the W-position. To discourage this, we can teach child other more efficient transitional movements to get into sitting.

Experiment with side sitting or gently guiding legs out in front to promote a “long sitting”position. Using verbal cues like “criss cross sitting” assist with the acquisition of new sitting patterns and include the child as an engaged participant. Once the child has experienced the alternative positions, give him or her opportunities to participate in active play scenarios to gain confidence and comfort in these more developmentally appropriate seated postures.

CAUSES OF TOE WALKING

Toe-walking? This is a good question. Toe-walking may be a learned habit (many toddlers walk on their toes), or may relate to motor coordination challenges, a tight Achilles tendon, or a sensory processing difference. Toe-walking is also seen with other neurological or developmental disorders, such as cerebral palsy.Children with autism often present with stereotyped motor movements, one of which may be walking on their tip-toes. Others hypothesize that walking on toes reduces over stimulation in the feet that can occur as a result of walking on the entire foot.

Toe-walking however also occurs on its own, where a clear neuromuscular cause cannot be found. This is called ‘idiopathic toe-walking’ (idiopathic meaning literally ‘with unknown cause’). Despite being idiopathic, toe-walking appears to be more common than average in children and adults with the following diagnoses or risk factors:

Typically, toe walking is a habit that develops when a child learns to walk. In a few cases, toe walking is caused by an underlying condition, such as:

  • Tight calf muscles and shortened heel (Achilles) tendons. The tight muscle and/or shortened tendon can prevent the heel from touching the ground. So instead of walking flat footed, the child walks on his or her toes. Calf muscle tightness often occurs with autism. Sometimes it’s related to cerebral palsy, another condition that can co-occur with autism.
  • Sensory processing differences This can include discomfort or anxiety in response to the feel of certain surfaces on the bottom of the child’s feet.Idiopathic toe walking may be linked to hyper or hypo sensitivity. Some children may not like the feeling of different surfaces on their bare feet, which cause them to rise up on their toes to avoid having the full surface of their feet contracting floor. For children who are seeking more input, toe walking increases the force of impact felt during ambulation, as the ground reaction force is distributed through a smaller surface area at the metatarsal heads.
  • Hyper-reactive calf muscles. In this case, fast movements such as walking cause the calf muscle to spasm, or shorten, at the wrong time. To avoid the uncomfortable spasm, the child may begin to stay up on his or her toes.
  • Hypotonia (low muscle tone)Hyper-extended back posture (“sway-back”). This posture shifts the child’s weight forward onto the toes. We commonly see this in children with low muscle tone, or muscle weakness.
  • Cerebral palsy. Toe walking can be caused by a disorder of movement, muscle tone or posture caused by injury or abnormal development in the parts of the immature brain that control muscle function.
  • Muscular dystrophy. Toe walking sometimes occurs in this genetic disease in which muscle fibers are unusually prone to damage and weaken over time. This diagnosis might be more likely if your child initially walked normally before starting to toe walk.
  • Autism. Toe walking has been linked to autism spectrum disorders, which affect a child’s ability to communicate and interact with others.
  • Family history of idiopathic toe-walking (up to 40% in first and second degree relatives!)
  • Developmental Coordination and/or Language Disorders
  • ADHD and related conditions
  • Premature birth and/or low birthweight

Though the majority of idiopathic toe-walkers do not have a diagnosed condition or evidence of any
other developmental delays. Children who toe-walk all or most of the time, generally after the age of 3, will not “grow out” of this pattern. The implications of this may include compromised opportunities to develop more advanced gait and postural control strategies and motor skills, extremely tight Achilles tendons, problems with the development of the foot as the child grows, and difficulty using the muscles of the trunk and hips in an efficient manner.

How to cure it at home itself now..

There are five ways to correct toe walking

  • HOME EXERCISE PROGRAM

  • MASSAGE and LEG JOINT COMPRESSION

  • MULTI-SURFACE BARE FOOT WALKING(MOST IMPORTANT)

  • TREKKING

  • VATA PACIFIER DIET and MASSAGE.

HOME EXERCISE PROGRAM

If your child has idiopathic toe walking, a daily home exercise program can be very helpful. The goal is to stretch the calf muscles and strengthen the muscles on the front of the legs. This will help your child to be able to successfully walk with a heel-to-toe pattern.If your child’s calf muscles are tight, or ankle motion is limited, you will be shown stretches to do at home with them. These stretches should be followed with activities to help them use their muscles in their new lengthened position.

These exercises will be necessary and beneficial as long as your child demonstrates a tip toe walking pattern. The exercises will vary with their age. The most important part of the exercise program is to remember to have fun with your child!

Stretches and strengthening exercises for children under TEN years of age

EXERCISE ONE :Calf stretch

  • Have your child lie on their back on a comfortable surface such as a firm bed.

  • With their knee straight and leg supported on the bed, bring your child’s foot upwards, toward their head, bending their ankle.

  • Hold the stretch at the end of the movement (that is, as far as your child’s range of motion will permit) for 15 to 30 seconds. This should not be painful for your child.

  • Bring your child’s foot back to a normal position. Repeat the exercise 10 times on each leg, daily.

    EXERCISE TWO: Achilles tendon stretch

  • Have your child lie on their back on a comfortable surface such as a firm bed.
  • With their knee bent, bring your child’s foot upwards, toward their head, bending their ankle.
  • Hold the stretch at the end of the movement (that is, as far as your child’s range of motion will permit) for 15 to 30 seconds. This should not be painful for your child.
  • Bring your child’s foot back to a normal position. Repeat the exercise 10 times on each leg, daily.

stretch_courtesy_sickkids (2)

EXERCISE THREE :SIT TO STAND

  • Have your child sit on a children’s sized chair or stool.
  • Place your hands below their knees, providing a moderate, constant pressure downwards as a cue to keep their heels on the floor.
  • Have your child practice standing up while keeping their heels on the ground.
  • Make this exercise fun by playing a game of high five, blowing bubbles, reaching for objects, working in front of a mirror or singing songs.

EXERCISE FOUR :CALF STRETCH

  • Have your child stand approximately two feet from a wall. Place both of their hands at shoulder height against the wall.
  • With their right knee straight, have them step towards the wall with the left foot. They should lean in until a stretch is felt in the back of the right calf. Make sure they keep the heel of the right foot on the ground.
  • Hold the stretch for 15 to 30 seconds.
  • Repeat the exercise 10 times on each leg, daily.

EXERCISE FIVE :SQUATS

Practice squats passively with kid will post a video on my YouTube channel soon as to how to do squats with small kids at home passively.

EXERCISE FIVE :CLIMBING SLIDES

Climbing up playground slide is a great way to target range of motion, strength and weight bearing!

EXERCISE SIX: DYNA DISC STAND

make the child stand on disc for like 30 sec to one minute.it helps a lot in reducing sensory input problems

MASSAGE and LEG JOINT COMPRESSION

Joint Compression is providing input into one’s joints (namely at the shoulders, arclies tendon muscle, elbows, wrists, and fingers) for proprioceptive input. Proprioception refers to the physical input on the body’s joints, muscles, and bones that then elicit chemical, physiological, and physical changes in the body.

The joint compression video shared in my youtube channel you can click the link and see.

USE THE OILS RECOMMENDED IN MY PREVIOUS ARTICLES.

Our bodies need proprioceptive input to improve our body awareness, body organization, postural security; and once the body becomes more secure and organized, then it can relax, calm down, and handle stress in a more efficient manner.

In addition, joint compressions also utilize human touch with has been shown to facilitate the release of dopamine and norepinephrine. Dopamine and norepinphrine are two neurotransmitters that are responsible for mood regulation, motivation, lowering anxiety levels, and lowering depression (Neurogistics ). So, by doing joint compressions with your child, you are actually getting” double the bang for your buck” as you are reaping the benefits of both proprioception and touch combined.

  • Help your child with a HOPE

    • Marching on the spot. Have your child bring their knees up high and then land with a flat foot.
    • Walking uphill.
    • Walking on uneven surfaces such as in a playground or sand.
    • Walking on the heels only. Keep the toes off the ground at all times.
    • Practicing squats. With feet flat on the floor, hip width apart, have your child slowly lower their body all the way to the floor by bending at their knees and hips but keeping their chest upright.

BARE FOOT WALKING(FIVE SURFACE BARE FOOT WALKING)

We can’t deny the presence of electrical charges in our body and thus so, it makes the conduction of the electricity to the body as possible. We’re producing the positive charge regularly and the earth maintains the negative charge along with the free radicals to balance the charges. The negative potential of the earth is responsible for stabilizing our internal bioelectrical environment to pursue the internal functions smoothly.
Due to the trendy footwear obsession and recent pedicure maintenance, we hesitate to kick off our shoes and walk on the ground. But by covering our soles of the foot, we’re limiting the elimination of the free radicals and charge of the body, which can produce a hindrance in our physiological processes of the body. Perhaps, you should try to walk on the ground around 30 minutes rather early in the morning or evening to donate the toxins to the earth.
Do you remember the last time when you walked on the ground with barefoot? Earthing or grounding is the terminology that we usually use for the barefoot walk. Most people opt for the barefoot walk when they need to relax and calm themselves but along with these benefits, we can’t neglect the associated benefits of it. So, here we’re discussing the most common advantages of the barefoot walk on your overall health.

  • Insomnia Can Be Controlled

  • Improves Nervous System:

Walking barefoot stimulates the acupuncture points of the foot and this in turn helps in stimulating the nerves and veins

  • IMPROVES THE BALANCE

When our soles of the foot come in contact with the ground, our vestibular system (balance & coordination system) stimulates; thus, our balance is improved and the loop of the neural circuits remapped.

In younger age , we lose our balance and coordination more rapidly due to the inevitable degeneration in the neurons of our brain. So, if you’re walking barefoot on the grass, the potential signals sent from the receptors of the soles empower your neural circuits.

The most important exercise that helped my kid was 5 FIVE SURFACE BARE FOOT WALKING..in one go change surface after every 5 to 10 min.

1 .Make the kid walk on pebbles small and big .click the link and see.

It acts as an accupunture and triggers all good points and nerves responsible for sensory toe .

BALANCE ELECTRONS AND INFLUENCE BRAIN.70% of our body contains water which contains electrolytes like sodium, potassium etc. walking bare foot help to create an ionic balance within cells & tissues by the help of earth’s magnetic energy

2 .Make the kid walk on Dry and wet Grass at the same time.

One reason direct physical contact with the ground might have beneficial physiological effects is the earth’s surface has a negative charge and is constantly generating electrons that could neutralize free radicals, acting as antioxidants. You may think of antioxidants as coming from food, and indeed a diet rich in fruits, vegetables and other foods that provide beta-carotene, selenium, lutein, lycopene and vitamins A, C and E help prevent cellular damage from free radicals.
