There are no crystals of greater magnification than man’s own eyes when looking at his own person.
Alexander Pope (English poet 1688 -1744)
Analysing the iris
The iris reveals the body’s constitution, inherent weaknesses, levels of health, and transitions that take place in the body. A complete analysis of the iris shows whether a person has a good or poor body constitution, depending on the density of the iris fibres, patterns, structures, colours and degrees of light and dark. It also reveals the relative sites of excess activity, irritation, injury, or degeneration of tissues and organs. Levels of toxic accumulation can also be observed, as well as nutritional and chemical imbalances..
Iridology as a diagnostic tool
Iridology is the science that studies the health of the human body through the iris. The iris is the window to the rest of the body, and through it, we can identify and locate diseases and ailments. It also shows us our genetic patterns, and even our psychological tendency. The iris is, therefore, an important source of information revealed through its signs, shapes and colours.
Iridology does not show specific diseases but provides information about the tissues of the body that indicate tendencies towards “ill-being” conditions, often before symptoms appear. Iridology cannot locate parasites,
gallstones, or germs, but it does indicate the presence of inflammation and intoxication. It also does not show pregnancies, since it is a normal function of the female body.
The eyes are like body mirrors that record the state of different organs and tissues. Iridology is potentially an integral part of preventive healthcare. It has the ability to warn about difficulties or signs of illness. Iridology can be a powerful tool to determine what is happening inside the body from a simple, painless and inexpensive external point of view. Indeed, iridology will reveal how the body works.
The search for a healthy lifestyle
As a Naturopath I can demonstrate that inadequate nutrition and lack of exercise undermine the integrity of the body until it finally becomes unable to reverse harmful toxic conditions through its own self-healing mechanisms, making itself susceptible to chronic diseases. Therefore, nutrition and iridology are inseparable in the search for a healthy lifestyle and a comprehensive health care program.
Iridology can help us understand our weaknesses so that we can strengthen and cleanse our organisms in order to obtain the maximum potential for health.
