Scalloped tongue, some skin irritations, slow healing infection
I’ve long been diagnosed with a scalloped tongue. In the Chinese analysis it is lack of circulation or Qi. The anthroposophic doctor says it is a weak pancreas. I’ve made my internet rounds this evening and finally set off on a path.
The main culprit could be a vitamin deficiency, specifically vitamin B3. The supplement of choice is niacin. But the vegetable of choice is carrots. I bought an ebook a few years ago and he told me about his carrot juice cure. Carrots are indeed very nutritious and provide a lot more nutrients.
See this guy debunking spirulina and comparing it with the common carrot. http://spl.haxial.net/spirulina/ Carrots are easier to come by, fresh and cheap too. So now I have a simple plan.
Fresh carrot juice every day for 3 weeks. That should do the trick. I will also experiment with niacin supplements if I can find one.

Update: I found a 100 tablet bottle of niacin 100 mg at healthy options. I also bought Red Ginseng Royal Jelly. My plan is to eat carrots, take 1 tablet of niacin daily, and 1 ampule red ginseng royal jelly everyday. I’ll do this for 20 days and see what happens.
I took my first niacin 100 mg this afternoon and I did feel the heat inside me. It was a good heat. A good fire as the chinese doctors describe. Energy production. I also took my first dose of Red Ginseng Royal Jelly. I also went to a chinese restaurant this lunch time and ordered hot soup with noodles. I also ate white rice in the evening. I had raw carrots this morning. Cooked carrots in the evening.
I will continue with my probiotics of 3 capsules daily, 2 capsules daily of fish oil, 2 grams of vitamin C and now a warm cooked diet avoiding raw foods to strengthen my Qi.
I distinctly remember in my previous travels that I felt really good whenever I travelled to Singapore and Hongkong gorging on Chinese food. Maybe it is the chinese blood in me seeking chinese food and chinese treatments. My maternal grandfather is 50% chinese.
