Food is always best medicine

Tonsillitis is an enlargement and infection of the tonsils. Tonsillitis varies in severity and recurrence. Sometimes it is acute tonsillitis and sometimes it is chronic tonsillitis. Tonsillitis is often associated with halitosis. The connection is obvious.

Tonsillitis is treated with antibiotics for a period of time. But for a recurring case tonsillectomy is performed. No diet recommendation is usually mentioned by a doctor treating Tonsillitis. Many tonsillitis patients experience temporary improvement in health after having their tonsils removed, but only to have more serious chronic throat, ear and heart troubles later in life.

Tonsils are solid (Yang) filters that are strategically located between the mouth and upper torso. They filter anything that passes from the head area to the body and from the body to the head area. When a person consumes much fatty foods for a long time, tonsils get filled up with toxins (organic and inorganic). Saturated with toxins, tonsils begin to swell up (yin) and become susceptible to the infection (yin) called Tonsillitis. When a filter in an automobile gets clogged up from dirty gasoline, is it better to remove it or clean it and use a cleaner fuel? Then why remove these two marvelous filters called tonsils? and why not cure Tonsillitis with the proper diet? You can read more about the relation between Tonsillitis and YIN and YANG in the seven laws of the universe.
