Case 1
Today I went to TTSH for follow up eye check after they found (6 weeks ago)
that I have clots in the some of the veins in my right eye.
The eye consultant was surprised and very glad that the clots in the veins have
all cleared and gave me a follow up appointment 3 months later.
I told him that I have been taking black fungus (Mok Yee in Cantonese)
for 6 weeks which he personally accepts under "holistic medicine".
I also gave him an exercise disc which I brought back from Guangzhou which he was very happy to receive as he
lacks exercise and his cholesterol is also high.
Case 2
A herbal treatment for High Blood cholesterol
I want to share a secret for treating high cholesterol.
Three weeks ago l went for a cholesterol check.
To my surprise, it was above the normal range which should be less than 5.2
mmol/L.
My reading obtained was 6.6.
I had been consuming a lot of red meat and lamb recently.
After consuming Mok Yee for two weeks, l had my cholesterol checked
again and found that my cholesterol level fell to 4.70 mmol/L.
My pharmacist said that even cholesterol medication will need 1- 3 months to
take effect.
She was very surprised and said it is a miracle.
Review:
I immediately followed an advice of a friend who told me about Black fungus (Mok
Yee).
He had four blocked heart arteries, over 90 percent blocked.
His cardiologist advised him to go for bypass surgery, failing which he would
suffer an imminent heart attack.
His sinseh (Chinese physician) friend advised him against surgery as the
procedure would be messy, painful and expensive. He
followed the advice of his sinseh friend by consuming Mok Yee daily.
After consuming boiled Mok Yee juice for 40 days, he went for an angiogram.
His heart specialist was surprised and shocked that his arteries were all
cleared of any blockage and it would not be necessary to see him for another 10
years!
My observation is that Mok Yee juice is not only effective in treating
high blood cholesterol but also helps to bring relief to joint paints,
arthritis and poor blood circulation.
The internet info. claims that Mok Yee reduces blood clot,
preventing thrombosis, atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, and cancer.
Black Fungus contains abundant proteins, ferric iron, calcium, vitamins, rough
fibre; the content of protein is equal to meat.
Preparation:
1) Pick a handful of Mok Yee and soak in water for 1-2 hours
2) Wash Mok Yee and cut to pieces with
scissors.
3) Pour five bowls of plain water into slow cooker (crock pot)
4) Put 2-3 slices of ginger, 8-10 red dates, 20 kay-chee (wolf berry) into
crock pot.
5) Bring to boil for 8 hours. One and a half bowls of Mok Yee
soup will remain after boiling overnight.
Eat black fungus and drink the soup.
Consumption:
You may consume for 10 to 14 days according to the severity of the problem.
For those with low blood pressure consume less or only for alternate days.
Drink Mok Yee first thing in the morning with an 'empty stomach'.
Consume at least one large bowl.
Take breakfast 2 hours later.
Side effects - you may feel a little tired after 3- 4 days.
Consume multivitamins and fresh fruits and vegetables daily.
Do not eat oily or fried foods during this period.
Observation:
Dark and oily stool during the first two days.
Cholesterol medication is man-made and may harm the liver.
Mok Yee is a plant and does not seem to contain
chemicals that harm the body.
Take blood test for blood cholesterol before and after treatment and study the
results!
