Defeat Chronic Diseases Naturally: A Holistic Guide Rooted in Chinese Medicine
Dr. Amir Firouzjai’s Wellness Blueprint for Healing and Preventing Chronic Illnesses Through Sleep, Nutrition, and Energy Alignment.
Watan-Wake up with the sunrise, eat with the sunset, sleep deeply, and nourish yourself with whole foods.
Though this may seem challenging in a busy modern lifestyle, these simple principles, if followed consistently, can enhance well-being and protect against chronic diseases.
What Are Chronic Diseases?
Chronic illnesses are long-term or slow-progressing conditions that often last over 3 months and do not spread from person to person. The WHO reports they account for 60% of global deaths, especially in low- and middle-income countries, with half occurring in people under 70.
Dr. Amir Firouzjai’s Natural Prescription to Combat Chronic Illness
Dr. Amir Firouzjai, general practitioner and Chinese medicine expert at Wealth Clinic, outlines a powerful holistic routine to help prevent or reverse chronic diseases based on body energy cycles and lifestyle alignment:
1. Wake Up with the Sun & Meditate
-
5–7 AM: Yang energy (active) peaks.
-
Colon detoxifies during this time—support it with light physical activity, prayer, or meditation to absorb energy from the sun and flush toxins.
2. Eat Breakfast Early
-
7–9 AM: Stomach functions at peak capacity.
-
Best time to eat your main meal of the day and supply your body with vital nutrients.
3. Eat a Light Dinner at Sunset
-
Sunset marks the decline of Yang and rise of Yin (rest).
-
Avoid heavy meals at night to prevent disrupting digestion and energy flow.
4. Sleep Deeply at the Right Time
-
11 PM–7 AM: Four key organs detox and rebuild—gallbladder, liver, lungs, large intestine.
-
Disrupting this cycle can block detox, leading to long-term illness.
5. Fitness Over Thinness for Longevity
-
BMI should be 18–24.9 for optimal health.
-
Excessive thinness can cause hormonal and digestive issues. Balance and strength, not appearance, define true health.
6. Understanding Aging Through Energy Cycles
-
According to Chinese medicine, energy cycles change every 7 years for women, and every 8 for men.
-
Accepting these shifts helps us understand and embrace aging. Each stage brings different capacities, desires, and wisdom.
Aging Gracefully Starts with Daily Discipline
Chronic diseases are not inevitable—but they are the result of neglecting consistent wellness habits. Sleep well, eat on time, and stay in sync with your body’s natural rhythm.
Dr. Firouzjai’s prescription, when followed alongside medical consultation, can become your long-term ally in promoting graceful aging and disease prevention.
Anti-Aging
Preventing Chronic Diseases: A Holistic Path to a Better Life – Main & Featured
Aging is a natural process in the human life cycle—and understanding it is the new key to anti-aging. So how can you embrace aging and grow older with grace?
According to Chinese medicine, blood circulation and the quality and quantity of internal energy (Qi) are essential to health. This energy undergoes cyclical changes that vary with age: for females every seven years, and for males every eight years. These cycles bring shifts in energy levels, patterns, and flow speed.
All physical changes—body shape, structure, strength, mood, desires, capabilities, and development—are linked to these energy cycles. For instance, a 14-year-old girl has different capacities, thoughts, and desires than someone aged 21, 28, or 70. The same applies to males, but in eight-year cycles.
Therefore, awareness of these natural energetic cycles that occur with age allows for better anticipation of physical and psychological changes, making the aging process more understandable and acceptable.
In summary: chronic diseases become almost unavoidable for people who neglect their health and fail to maintain a healthy lifestyle—one based on regular sleep-wake cycles and consistent meal times. These diseases are what make aging harder and more burdensome.
That’s why we kindly suggest, dear reader, to try following Dr. Amir’s holistic anti-chronic disease plan (with your doctor’s guidance, of course)—it may help you enhance your quality of life in the years ahead.
