What Is PCOS and Why Does It Occur?

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder among women of reproductive age. It is characterized by small cysts on the ovaries, elevated male hormones (androgens), and menstrual irregularities. Affected women may also suffer from insulin resistance, weight gain, acne, and excessive hair growth. The traditional medical model focuses on treating symptoms with hormonal medications, but Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, asks a deeper question: what if PCOS is not just an ovarian problem, but a hormonal and metabolic condition affected by the entire body?

The Most Common Symptoms in Women

Women with PCOS suffer from a range of bothersome symptoms: irregular periods (long intervals between cycles or complete absence), pain during menstruation, difficulty conceiving due to ovulation disorders, weight gain especially in the abdominal area, acne, excessive hair growth on the face and chest, and hair loss from the scalp. These symptoms significantly affect quality of life and mental health. Many women seek practical solutions beyond hormonal medications that may temporarily relieve symptoms but do not address the root cause.

How Does Traditional Medicine Explain the Condition?

Traditional medicine explains PCOS as a hormonal imbalance primarily based on insulin resistance and increased secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) compared to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). This imbalance leads to arrested ovulation and the formation of small cysts on the ovaries. Traditional treatments include birth control pills to regulate the cycle, medications like metformin to improve insulin sensitivity, and ovulation induction medications like clomiphene. However, these treatments address symptoms rather than cause, and may be accompanied by side effects.

The Case Story: What Happened in 4 Months?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents a real case story: a woman suffered from ovarian cysts, severe hormonal imbalance, irregular menstruation, and severe pain during her period. After only 4 months of adhering to the Tayyibat System, a remarkable change occurred. According to the report from the gynecologist following the case, the cysts disappeared completely, hormones became balanced, and her period became regular and painless. The most important point here is that the improvement was not just a personal feeling, but was confirmed by a specialist physician, giving the story very high credibility.

Can Eating Patterns Affect Hormones?

Yes, hormones are significantly affected by the body’s internal environment. The foods we eat daily send complex hormonal signals. Hard-to-digest and processed foods – such as white flour, sugar, dairy, and fried foods – may increase inflammation and lead to insulin resistance, disrupting the balance between female and male hormones. On the other hand, permitted foods in the Tayyibat System such as Egyptian rice, potatoes, meat from good sources, and natural fats like olive oil may help calm inflammation and stabilize hormones. In the Tayyibat System, food is viewed as hormonal messages to the body, not just fuel.

The Role of Inflammation and Insulin Resistance in Menstrual Irregularity

Low-grade chronic inflammation and insulin resistance are two sides of the same coin in many PCOS cases. When a person eats foods that rapidly raise blood sugar or cause intestinal irritation, insulin rises excessively. High insulin stimulates the ovaries to produce more male hormones (androgens) than normal, which suppresses ovulation and causes irregular periods. Additionally, chronic inflammation increases insulin resistance, creating a vicious cycle. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that breaking this cycle begins with the plate: reducing irritating and inflammation-causing foods allows the body to restore normal insulin sensitivity and hormonal balance.

Why Does Response Vary from Woman to Woman?

No two women are exactly alike. Genetic factors, severity of inflammation, the types of foods that cause allergies or irritation for each person, degree of insulin resistance, and psychological state all affect the speed and degree of response. Some women may notice significant improvement within a few weeks, while others need several months. This does not mean the system does not work, but that each body has its own circumstances. The important point is that improving lifestyle and diet is a powerful contributing factor, but it is not a one-size-fits-all magic formula.

How Does the Tayyibat System View PCOS?

The Tayyibat System views PCOS as a hormonal and metabolic condition affected by the entire body, not just a local problem in the ovary. The goal is not just to “dissolve cysts” magically, but to create a healthy internal environment that allows hormones to return to their natural balance. This requires: repairing the intestinal wall and reducing inflammation by avoiding forbidden foods, supporting insulin sensitivity with easy-to-digest foods rich in nutrients, and allowing the body to rest through appropriate periods of fasting. The improvement seen in the form of cyst disappearance and cycle regularity is a natural result of the body returning to a state of balance, not a direct “treatment” of the cysts themselves.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a real case story of a woman whose PCOS symptoms significantly improved within only 4 months: cysts disappeared according to the gynecologist’s report, hormones became balanced, and her period became regular and painless. This improvement was not just a personal feeling but was confirmed by a specialist physician. PCOS is not just an ovarian problem, but a hormonal and metabolic condition affected by inflammation, eating patterns, and insulin sensitivity. Improving diet and lifestyle does not claim to cure PCOS definitively, but it may be a powerful contributing factor in restoring natural hormonal balance. Any lifestyle change should be made in coordination with the follow-up physician, and no medication should be stopped without medical consultation.

What Is the Problem of Sperm Deformity?

Sperm deformity is the presence of a high percentage of abnormally shaped sperm in a semen analysis. The deformity may be in the head, body, or tail, affecting the sperm’s ability to reach and fertilize the egg. This is considered one of the main causes of male infertility. The traditional medical model often focuses on localized causes such as varicocele, genital infections, or hormonal disorders. However, Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, asks a deeper question: what if these deformities reflect the condition of the entire body, not just the testicles?

What Is the Traditional Explanation for Varicocele?

Varicocele is the enlargement of veins within the scrotum, similar to varicose veins in the legs. The common medical explanation says that varicocele causes blood pooling and increased testicular temperature. This temperature increase – even if small – affects spermatogenesis, leading to decreased sperm count, poor motility, and abnormal morphology. Based on this explanation, doctors may recommend surgery to ligate the enlarged veins. However, Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that this explanation alone may not be sufficient in many cases.

Why Does the Tayyibat System Question the “Heating” Explanation?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, objects to the idea that the slight temperature increase from varicocele is the only or main cause of sperm deformity. The doctor explains that temperature differences within the body are very limited, and it is illogical that this small difference alone causes severe widespread deformities. The doctor uses simple examples like bus drivers who sit for long hours in high temperatures, or men who wear tight pants for long periods. If the “heating” explanation were everything, all these men would suffer from severe infertility and deformities, but reality shows otherwise. Therefore, there are other deeper factors playing a larger role.

Is Fertility Related Only to the Organ or to the Whole Body?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that fertility is not a problem of one organ, but rather a complete system. Sperm reflects the condition of the entire body, not just the testicles. Chronic inflammation anywhere in the body – whether in the intestines, gums, or joints – may affect semen quality. Food quality, lifestyle, and metabolic environment all directly affect sperm health. Therefore, focusing only on varicocele as the main cause may overlook other root causes that may be treatable through lifestyle changes rather than surgery.

A Real Story: What Happened Between the Couple?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents a real story from the transcript: a couple suffering from delayed conception. The husband’s semen analysis showed that sperm deformity rates increased from 20% to 99% over time. During the same period, the wife followed the Tayyibat System and her condition improved significantly – cysts decreased and her cycle became regular. However, the husband did not change his lifestyle or diet, and the problem persisted on his side. The message here is clear: two bodies are not affected the same way if the lifestyle does not change. The wife improved her internal environment and her fertility improved, while the husband remained on his old pattern and his sperm deformities worsened, even though the declared cause (varicocele) may have been present from the beginning.

What Is the Relationship Between Inflammation, Food Quality, and Fertility?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that low-grade chronic inflammation affects every cell in the body, including sperm-producing cells. Hard-to-digest foods – such as white flour, dairy, eggs, and processed foods – cause intestinal wall irritation and increased permeability, leading to irritating molecules entering the blood. This widespread inflammation may affect the testicles and sperm quality. Additionally, deficiency of essential nutrients due to malabsorption or poor food quality may affect spermatogenesis. Therefore, improving diet and reducing inflammation may positively reflect on semen analysis, even in the presence of varicocele.

Reframing the Understanding of Semen Analysis

In the Tayyibat System, the doctor does not view semen analysis as a test of the testicles only, but as a test of the entire body’s condition. If there is widespread sperm deformity, this indicates a problem in the body’s internal environment. This problem may be related to chronic inflammation, qualitative malnutrition, toxin accumulation, or oxidative stress. Treating this problem is not always through surgery or hormonal medications alone, but may be through lifestyle and dietary changes. This does not negate the role of varicocele as a contributing factor in some cases, but it means that the “heating” explanation alone may not be sufficient, and addressing the body’s internal environment may be an important part of the solution.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a reframing of the relationship between varicocele and sperm deformity. The varicocele explanation as the only factor may not be sufficient in all cases, because fertility is not a problem of one organ but a complete system affected by food, inflammation, and the body’s general condition. Semen analysis does not reflect only the testicles, but the entire internal environment of the body. The real story of the couple shows that two bodies are not affected the same way if the lifestyle does not change. This understanding does not negate the role of varicocele or the need for surgery in some cases, but it opens the door to other contributing factors that may be more influential than we think.

What Is Bad Breath and Why Does It Occur?

Bad breath (halitosis) is a common condition affecting millions worldwide. It is often attributed to local causes in the mouth such as bacterial buildup on the tongue or between teeth, or the presence of cavities or gum disease. However, in many cases, a person continues to suffer from bad breath despite meticulous oral and dental hygiene. This indicates that there is a deeper cause that brushing and mouthwash cannot address.

Why Is the Problem Not Always in the Mouth?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that the body is an integrated system, and the odor coming from the mouth may originate from a source far from the mouth itself. The digestive system – from the stomach to the intestines – is a closed environment containing millions of bacteria and food materials at various stages of digestion. When there is inflammation or suppuration in the wall of the stomach or intestines, gases and volatile organic compounds carrying unpleasant odors may be produced. These gases do not only exit from the rear, but can also spread through the bloodstream, reach the lungs, and then be exhaled through the mouth. This means that bad breath may in some cases be just a “window” looking out onto a deeper internal condition.

The Difference Between Ulceration and Suppuration in the Digestive System

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, distinguishes between two very important terms for understanding this problem. Ulceration is surface erosion or irritation of the mucous membrane, which may be simple and quickly healable. Suppuration is deeper and more serious, involving severe inflammation accompanied by purulent discharge (pus). Suppuration means there is an active infection or chronic inflammation leading to tissue breakdown and the production of foul-smelling substances. The doctor believes that some cases of resistant bad breath may be linked to hidden suppuration in the wall of the intestine or stomach, not just surface irritation.

How Can the Intestines Affect Bad Breath?

The gut-brain axis is well-known, but the doctor draws attention to another axis: the gut-lungs-mouth axis. When the intestinal wall is inflamed or has hidden suppuration, the gases and chemical compounds emitted from this inflammation do not remain trapped in the intestines. Some are absorbed into the bloodstream, travel through the circulatory system to the lungs, and are then exhaled. Therefore, a person’s breath may have an odor that has nothing to do with what they eat or their oral hygiene, but is a direct reflection of an inflammatory condition inside their intestines. The doctor explains that this understanding explains why mouthwash, toothpaste, and brushing may fail to solve the problem permanently.

Can the Body Rebuild the Intestinal Wall?

This is a very important and positive point in the Tayyibat System. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that the body has an amazing ability to regenerate the lining of the digestive system within just a few days, if the eating pattern is repaired and irritants are removed. The lining of the stomach and intestines regenerates continuously under normal conditions. However, when it is exposed daily to hard-to-digest foods, toxins, and irritants, the regeneration process is disrupted and inflammation persists. Once these burdensome inputs are reduced, the body can return to its natural state and rebuild a healthy wall free from suppuration and inflammation. This means the solution is not complicated or impossible in many cases.

What Is the Role of Food in the Appearance or Disappearance of Odor?

Food is the biggest factor. Foods that are difficult to digest, leave many residues, or trigger an immune response can lead to chronic inflammation in the intestinal wall. Among the most notable of these foods in the Tayyibat System are: white flour in all its forms, dairy and its products, eggs, fava beans, lentils, and processed meats. When a person stops consuming these irritants for a sufficient period (days to weeks), the intestinal wall begins to heal, inflammation and suppuration decrease, and with that, the bad odor may gradually disappear. The doctor emphasizes that this is not theorizing, but a practical observation repeated with many cases that follow the Tayyibat System.

How Does the Tayyibat System Understand This Condition?

The Tayyibat System views bad breath as a signal, not as a disease in itself. Instead of fighting the odor with mouthwash, the system asks: what is happening inside the digestive system? Is there inflammation or suppuration in the wall of the stomach or intestines? Does the food you eat daily feed this inflammation or calm it? Therefore, the system does not offer a local solution (toothpaste or mouthwash), but a systemic solution: repairing food, reducing irritants, supporting digestion, and rebuilding the intestinal environment. This does not mean canceling the role of oral and dental hygiene, but rather that oral hygiene alone may not be enough if the source is deeper in the digestive system.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a different understanding of bad breath: in some cases, the problem may not be in the mouth itself, but in a state of hidden inflammation or suppuration in the wall of the stomach or intestines. Ulceration is surface-level and healable, while suppuration is deeper and may be the source of resistant odor. The body is capable of regenerating the lining of its digestive system within days if the eating pattern is repaired and irritants are removed. Food is the biggest factor in the appearance or disappearance of odor, not mouthwash or toothpaste. This understanding does not negate the role of oral and dental hygiene, but it opens the door to a root solution that may be far from the mouth entirely.

What is Parkinson’s Disease Briefly?

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement. It occurs due to the degeneration of dopamine-producing nerve cells in a specific area of the brain called the “substantia nigra.” Dopamine deficiency leads to the classic symptoms of the disease: tremor in the limbs, slowness of movement, muscle rigidity, and balance disorders. Tremor is the most well-known symptom and the one that most affects the patient’s daily life.

Why Does Tremor Occur in the Body?

Tremor in Parkinson’s disease occurs when nerve signals between the brain and muscles become disrupted. Without sufficient dopamine, the brain areas responsible for movement control begin to send irregular signals, leading to involuntary shaking in the hands, arms, legs, or jaw. The traditional medical model focuses on replacing lost dopamine through medication. However, Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, asks a deeper question: why do these nerve cells die in the first place? And what if chronic inflammation plays a role in accelerating this degeneration?

Is the Brain Alone Responsible for the Symptoms?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that the nervous system is not isolated from the rest of the body. The idea that “the brain is everything” in diseases like Parkinson’s may be a limited view. The doctor explains that there is growing evidence that chronic inflammation, whether in the gut or in other tissues, can affect the central nervous system and accelerate the degeneration of nerve cells. This does not mean that the brain is not the core of the problem, but it means that the brain is affected by what happens in the rest of the body. Therefore, repairing dysfunction elsewhere – such as in the digestive system – may positively reflect on neurological symptoms.

How Does the Tayyibat System Connect the Gut and the Nervous System?

The gut-brain axis is one of the fundamental concepts in the Tayyibat System. The gut and brain are connected through complex neural pathways (especially the vagus nerve), through the immune system, and through hormonal signals. When the gut is inflamed or suffering from poor digestion due to hard-to-digest foods or toxins, the intestinal wall becomes more permeable, and irritating molecules transfer into the blood. These irritants may reach the brain and activate immune cells there (glial cells), increasing neuroinflammation and affecting the function of dopamine-producing nerve cells. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that reducing intestinal inflammation through improving food quality may alleviate this burden on the brain.

What Does “Tremor Improves” Mean?

This is the central phrase that needs precise clarification. When Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, says that “Parkinson’s improves,” he does not mean curing the disease or definitively stopping its progression. He means that some symptoms – especially tremor – may become less severe or less frequent when reducing the inflammatory load on the body through improving diet and repairing the digestive system. Improvement here means symptom reduction, not disease cure. There is currently no definitive cure for Parkinson’s disease in conventional medicine or in the Tayyibat System, but there may be ways to support the body to reduce the daily suffering from tremor.

The Role of Inflammation in Nervous System Disorders

Low-grade chronic inflammation is no longer considered a problem confined to the joints or intestines only. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, points out that inflammation can affect the central nervous system through multiple mechanisms. First, inflammatory molecules (cytokines) may cross the blood-brain barrier and affect nerve cell function. Second, activation of immune cells in the brain creates a toxic environment for nerve cells. Third, chronic inflammation increases oxidative stress that damages nerve cells over time. Therefore, reducing dietary inflammation – by avoiding trigger foods such as white flour, dairy, and processed foods – may be a reasonable strategy to support nervous system health and reduce symptoms.

Can Improving Diet Help Reduce Symptoms?

This is the practical question posed by the article. Based on the theoretical understanding of the relationship between the gut, brain, and inflammation, improving lifestyle and diet may contribute to reducing some symptoms of Parkinson’s disease in some cases. This does not mean that diet is a substitute for essential medications such as levodopa, nor does it mean that it works for every patient to the same degree. However, it may be a valuable addition to the treatment plan. Experimenting with avoiding forbidden foods in the Tayyibat System for a sufficient period (several weeks) may help the patient notice whether there is a change in the severity or frequency of tremor. Any dietary change should be done in coordination with the treating physician, especially in a complex disease like Parkinson’s.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a different perspective on Parkinson’s disease and tremor: the nervous system is not isolated from the rest of the body, and chronic inflammation – especially coming from the gut – may affect the severity of symptoms. Improving diet and repairing the digestive system may contribute to reducing tremor in some cases, but this does not mean curing the disease or stopping its progression. Improvement here means reducing symptom severity, not definitive cure. Any change in lifestyle or diet should be made in coordination with the treating physician, and no medication – especially Parkinson’s medications – should be stopped without direct medical follow-up and a clear plan of measurements.

Why Does the Name “Bipolar” Frighten Patients?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, emphasizes that the name “bipolar affective disorder” itself creates significant psychological fear in the patient. The mere label makes a person feel that their condition is serious, complex, and incurable. The doctor explains that other diseases carry a similar psychological charge, but here the name may prevent the patient from searching for the real roots of the problem. The goal of this approach is to break the impact of the “fear of the name” before understanding the disease itself, so that the patient does not remain a prisoner of the diagnosis without thinking about the deep causes that may be changeable.

Is the Problem Really Only in Brain Chemistry?

The common medical model explains bipolar disorder as a chemical imbalance in the brain requiring long-term medication. However, Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, completely reframes this idea. The problem is not only within the brain, but may be related to multiple factors: chronic inflammation in the body, daily food quality, general lifestyle, and the nervous system as an integrated whole. This does not mean denying the role of brain chemistry, but it means that this chemistry itself is affected by what enters the body in terms of food, drink, and irritants. The doctor believes that reducing a mood disorder to a “fixed chemical imbalance” may overlook causes that are treatable through lifestyle changes.

How Does the Tayyibat System Understand Mood Disorders?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that the psychological state is not separate from the body. Mood disorder (alternating episodes of depression and mania) may in many cases be the result of an inflamed internal environment, not just a primary chemical imbalance in the brain. The Tayyibat System views the body as one integrated system: the gut affects the brain, inflammation affects mood, and food quality affects psychological stability. Therefore, understanding bipolar disorder from this perspective opens new doors for treatment that are not limited to medication alone, but include modifying daily inputs that increase or decrease inflammation.

The Relationship Between Inflammation, Food, and Mood

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that low-grade chronic inflammation can directly affect the central nervous system. When the body enters a daily state of alert due to hard-to-digest foods, toxins, or irritants, this inflammation may gradually reflect on mood. Food is not just fuel; it is chemical messages sent to the brain. Some foods increase inflammation (such as white flour, dairy, and processed foods), while others decrease it. In the Tayyibat System, food is viewed as a primary tool for calming the nervous system, not just for satisfying hunger.

Why Can’t We Separate the Mind from the Body?

The core principle of this approach is that the mind and body are inseparable. Bipolar affective disorder is neither a “purely psychological” disease separate from the body, nor a “purely organic” one separate from the mind. Rather, it is a condition expressing a complex interaction between brain chemistry, inflammation, hormones, the gut, and lifestyle. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that many patients suffering from severe mood swings may find noticeable improvement when dietary inflammation is addressed first, not as a substitute for medication but as a complementary part of it. Separating the mind from the body in treatment may be a reason for the persistence of symptoms despite taking medication.

Can the “Plate” Be Part of the Solution?

This is the central idea of the Tayyibat System. Food affects the psychological state, and dietary inflammation may reflect on mood. Therefore, the starting point is the “plate” before the “drug” or alongside it. This does not mean that the system calls for stopping psychiatric medications – it never does that – but it means that there are other controllable factors that may reduce the severity of episodes or decrease their frequency. Experimenting with modifying forbidden foods in the Tayyibat System (white flour, dairy, eggs, processed foods) for a sufficient period may be the key to understanding whether dietary inflammation plays a role in the mood condition.

Rethinking Treatment: From Medication to Lifestyle

The goal of this approach is not to diminish the value of psychiatry or reject medications in any way. The goal is to reduce fear of the diagnosis, redefine mental illness as a condition that is biologically understandable, and open the door to thinking about lifestyle instead of limiting treatment to medication only. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that the best approach is an integrated one: medication when needed, and lifestyle and dietary modification as an essential part of the treatment plan, not as a luxury or a substitute. Biological factors include the brain, but they may also be affected by inflammation, lifestyle, and food. This understanding does not diminish the disease; rather, it gives the patient additional tools to deal with it.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a psychological-biological deconstruction of the idea of bipolar affective disorder. The name may frighten more than understanding the disease itself. The problem is not only within the brain, but may be related to inflammation, food, lifestyle, and the nervous system as a whole. The mind and body are inseparable, and the plate may be part of the solution alongside medication, not instead of it. This understanding does not aim to diminish the disease or deny psychiatry, but to reduce fear of the diagnosis and open the field for a deeper understanding of the body as one integrated system.

The post Bipolar Disorder in the Tayyibat System: Why Does Treatment Start with the Plate, Not the Drug? appeared first on Tayyibat System – Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi.

Retinal detachment is one of the medical conditions that causes concern when mentioned, often associated in people’s minds with sudden vision loss. But what actually happens inside the eye during detachment, and how do treatments like laser and silicone injection work to restore the retina to its place? This article provides a simplified explanation of the mechanism of these two procedures, focusing on the functional aspect of each as applied in clinical practice, within a broader framework for understanding the body that links symptoms to the root cause .

What Is Retinal Detachment?

The retina is the thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye, containing millions of nerve cells that receive light and convert it into electrical signals transmitted to the brain via the optic nerve. Retinal detachment means the separation of this layer from its normal position, thus separating retinal cells from the blood vessel layer that supplies them with oxygen and nutrients. The longer the detachment lasts without treatment, the greater the risk of permanent vision loss.

Key symptoms of retinal detachment include sudden appearance of floaters, light flashes, blurred vision, or a shadow resembling a curtain in the visual field. This is an emergency condition requiring immediate medical attention. Understanding the cause of symptoms before they worsen is the essence of Root Cause Analysis, which focuses on addressing the cause rather than just temporary relief.

Laser: Not a Treatment for Complete Detachment but Prevention and Tear Sealing

The laser used in retinal treatment is medically known as Laser Photocoagulation. However, it’s important to clarify that the laser does not reattach the detached retina; it is used in two different situations:

First situation: Retinal tear before detachment occurs. When there is a tear or hole in the retina but it hasn’t detached yet, laser can be used to prevent progression to complete detachment. The surgeon directs the laser beam through the pupil into the eye, creating tiny burns around the tear area. These burns form scars that “weld” the retina to the underlying tissue, holding it in place and preventing fluid leakage beneath it.

Second situation: Actual detachment. Here, laser alone is not enough; it is used as an auxiliary tool within larger surgical procedures. The laser is used to seal tears after the retina has been repositioned by other means.

Silicone Injection: An Internal Support for the Retina

In cases of severe or complex retinal detachment, surgeons may perform Vitrectomy with Silicone Oil Injection. To understand this procedure, the anatomical context must be clarified:

Inside the eye is a transparent gel-like substance called the vitreous body, filling the inner cavity of the eye. In detachment cases, the vitreous may pull on the retina, or fluid may accumulate beneath it. During vitrectomy, the surgeon removes the vitreous body along with any tissue pressing on the retina. Then, silicone oil is injected into the vitreous space.

Silicone oil is a transparent, heavy medical substance, functioning like an internal support that presses against the retina from the inside, returning it to its natural position against the eye wall. This continuous pressure helps the retina adhere to the eye wall, giving it adequate time to heal and stabilize.

Why Silicone Instead of Gas?

In less complex cases, a gas bubble may be injected instead of silicone oil. However, silicone oil is preferred in complex or severe cases for several reasons:

• Stability: Gas gradually disappears within days or weeks, while silicone remains stable for a longer period.
• Continuous pressure: Silicone provides extended support for the retina, especially in cases needing more time to heal.
• Travel: Patients with gas bubbles cannot fly or travel to high altitudes due to pressure changes, while silicone does not present this problem.

When Is Silicone Oil Removed?

Silicone oil is not permanent in the eye. It is used as a temporary support, typically removed after a period ranging from 3 to 6 months after surgery, depending on retinal stability and eye condition. In some cases, it may be removed after 6-8 weeks if the detachment is stable. Silicone removal is a surgical procedure in itself, performed after confirming adequate retinal healing.

What About Pneumatic Retinopexy and Scleral Buckle?

Beyond laser and silicone injection, there are two other procedures for treating retinal detachment:

Pneumatic Retinopexy: A gas bubble is injected into the eye to press against the detached retina and reposition it, with laser or freezing used to seal the tear.

Scleral Buckle: The surgeon places a silicone band or sponge around the eye (on the sclera, the white part of the eye). This band presses on the eye wall from the outside, reducing the vitreous traction on the retina and helping it adhere. This procedure is older than vitrectomy and is still used in some cases, especially in younger patients.

Why Are These Procedures Read Together?

Laser and silicone injection are not alternatives but complementary procedures within a single treatment plan. In vitrectomy with silicone injection, laser is almost always used to seal existing retinal tears. While silicone provides the mechanical support that stabilizes the retina in place, laser provides permanent sealing of tears, “welding” the tear edges to prevent fluid leakage beneath them again. This integration reflects the principle of Diagnostic Philosophy, which views that addressing a problem requires more than one tool, but rather a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism.

Conclusion

Retinal detachment is an emergency requiring prompt surgical intervention. Laser alone is not a treatment for complete detachment; it is a tool for sealing tears and preventing progression, used either as a preventive measure or as part of larger surgery. Silicone oil injection, on the other hand, is a temporary internal support used in severe cases to reattach and stabilize the retina long enough for healing. Understanding the difference between each role helps interpret treatment options more clearly, always emphasizing that the appropriate procedure depends on each patient’s condition and the specialist’s assessment. This type of deep understanding of the cause and treatment is what the Tayyibat System encourages in its vision of health.

Editorial Note: The above presents a technical description of common medical procedures for treating retinal detachment and should be understood within its scientific context, with consultation of the specialist physician to determine the appropriate treatment option for each case.

Why Do People Think That Protein Comes Only from Meat?

This common belief stems from the fact that animal protein resembles the protein structure in the human body more than plant protein does, making it easy to absorb and use directly. However, Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that this similarity does not mean that the animal is the original source of protein. The animal itself did not create amino acids from scratch; rather, it obtained them from its plant-based diet, then reassembled them inside its body. Therefore, believing that “meat is protein” is a short-sighted view that does not see the entire food chain from the beginning.

The Plant: The True Beginning of the Food Chain

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that the plant is the only organism capable of using nitrogen from the environment (soil and air) and converting it into organic compounds. This ability is called “nitrogen fixation,” a process that neither humans nor animals can perform. Through this nitrogen, the plant manufactures amino acids, then proteins, then fats, and then other vital components. In other words, the plant is the “primary factory” within the food chain, and both animals and humans come after as consumers, not as original manufacturers.

How Do Plants Manufacture Amino Acids?

The plant takes nitrogen from the soil in the form of nitrates or ammonium, and from the air through specialized bacteria in its roots. This nitrogen then enters a series of biochemical reactions within the plant’s cells, producing the essential amino acids that the body needs. These amino acids are the building blocks of protein. The doctor explains that without the plant, there would be no primary source of organic nitrogen, therefore no amino acids, and therefore no proteins anywhere in the food chain.

Is the Animal a Source of Protein or a Carrier of It?

This is the central question of this article. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that the animal is not an absolute source of protein, but rather a carrier and converter. The animal eats plants, obtaining amino acids and plant proteins, then reassembles them inside its body to form animal protein (meat, milk, eggs). Therefore, meat can be described as “transformed plant” within the food chain, not something created from nothing. This understanding does not diminish the value of animal protein, but it places it in its correct position: as an intermediate stage, not as the beginning.

Why Do Seeds Contain Oils and Energy?

The doctor uses a simple and clear example: corn contains oil, wheat contains oil, flax is rich in oils, and sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and others carry natural oils. These oils are a form of stored energy that the plant itself manufactured through photosynthesis and the conversion of nitrogen, carbon, and water. The doctor explains that this energy stored in seeds and grains transfers through the food chain to the animal and then to humans. The plant, therefore, is the primary source of both energy and building materials.

Reframing the Concept of Protein in the Tayyibat System

The Tayyibat System does not deny the value of animal protein, but it rearranges the conceptual priorities. Animal protein exists and is beneficial, but its origin is plant-based. The animal is an intermediary and carrier, not a creator. The human at the end of the chain takes either directly from plants (such as grains, legumes, and vegetables) or from animals that took from plants (such as beef, lamb, and poultry meat). This understanding expands human dietary options and frees him from the idea that “protein = meat only.” Amino acids can also be obtained from their primary plant sources.

What Does This Mean for Daily Nutrition?

Practically speaking, this understanding does not mean that you must become vegetarian, but it does mean that you look at your plate with a different eye. When you eat meat, you are essentially eating a plant transformed through the animal’s body. And when you eat rice, potatoes, corn, and freekeh, you are eating the primary source of energy and protein directly. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, recommends balance: do not rely on meat alone as a source of protein, and do not neglect plants because they are the foundation of the entire chain. The Tayyibat System calls for a return to understanding natural nutrition as an integrated system, not as a list of separate elements.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a scientific redefinition of the source of protein: the plant is the primary source of energy and biological building blocks, and the animal is a carrier and converter, not a creator. The plant can fix nitrogen from the environment and manufacture amino acids, proteins, and fats from scratch. The animal, on the other hand, obtains them from its plant-based diet and reassembles them. This understanding does not eliminate animal protein but rather places it correctly within the food chain, opening the door to a broader understanding of natural nutrition based on an integrated system rather than separate elements.

What is the Keto Diet Briefly and Why Does It Seem Attractive?

The keto diet is a dietary approach that relies on severely reducing carbohydrates (to less than 50 grams per day) while increasing fats and proteins, with the goal of pushing the body into a state called “ketosis” where it burns fat instead of sugar for energy. This diet seems attractive because many people lose weight quickly in the first few weeks, and some markers such as HbA1c and triglycerides decrease. However, Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that this improvement is superficial and temporary, and that the price the body pays in the medium and long term can be very heavy.

What Does the Doctor Mean When He Says Keto “Brings Out an Autoimmune Disease”?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that the body on the keto diet lives under chronic stress due to the absence of its primary energy source: carbohydrates. This stress pushes the immune system into a state of hyperactivity or confusion, which may reveal previously dormant autoimmune diseases or trigger new immune responses. The doctor explains that those who follow the keto diet may suddenly start suffering from autoimmune diseases such as psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, autoimmune thyroid disorders, or new food sensitivities. These people did not necessarily suffer from these diseases before keto, but the diet itself became the trigger that brought them to the surface.

Hair Loss on Keto: A Common Symptom That Supporters Do Not Discuss

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, points out that hair loss is one of the most common symptoms among long-term followers of the keto diet. He explains that hair needs continuous nourishment from balanced sources, and completely eliminating carbohydrates weakens blood circulation to the scalp and affects hair growth cycles. Many people consider this hair loss as “normalization” or “getting rid of weak hair,” but the doctor sees it as a clear sign that the body is suffering from qualitative malnutrition despite weight loss. Hair does not fall out for no reason; it falls out when the body decides that available resources are insufficient to maintain non-essential functions, and hair – unfortunately – is among the first functions the body sacrifices under stress.

“Inflammation Dies in Them”: What Does the Doctor Mean by This Bold Statement?

When Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, says that “those on keto, inflammation dies in them,” he does not literally mean that keto kills people, but rather that the body’s ability to produce inflammation becomes dangerously disrupted. Inflammation is not an absolute enemy; acute inflammation is a natural defense mechanism that the body needs to deal with infections and injuries. When the body loses this ability due to a harsh diet, the person may not feel pain or swelling, but they also lose early warning signs of health problems. The doctor explains that a person on keto may not feel joint inflammation, for example, but the joint continues to erode silently from within.

How Does Dr. Diaa Compare the Keto Diet to the Tayyibat System?

The fundamental difference between the keto diet and the Tayyibat System lies in understanding the body’s true source of energy. Keto completely rejects carbohydrates and relies on fat as an alternative. The Tayyibat System, on the other hand, does not eliminate any entire food group but rather adjusts the quality and sources of carbohydrates. In the Tayyibat System, Egyptian rice, potatoes, corn, and freekeh are permitted, but with controls related to ease of digestion, food quality, and the absence of irritants. The doctor believes that the body needs clean, easy-to-digest carbohydrates because they are the preferred energy source for the brain, nervous system, and intestines. Eliminating them completely stresses the liver and kidneys and disrupts the delicate hormonal balance.

What Happens to the Thyroid and Hormones on Long-Term Keto?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, warns about the effect of long-term keto on the thyroid gland and female and male hormones. He explains that carbohydrates are necessary for the production of active T3 hormone from the thyroid. When carbohydrates drop severely, T3 drops, metabolism slows down, and the body begins to store fat even with reduced food intake. Women may suffer from menstrual irregularities or complete absence of menstruation, and men may suffer from low testosterone levels and decreased libido. These effects do not appear in the first weeks, but they accumulate gradually and become chronic after months and years of keto.

Is Keto Suitable for Any Medical Condition at All?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, does not deny that the keto diet may have very limited medical uses under strict supervision, such as some cases of intractable epilepsy in children or some tumors that rely exclusively on glucose. However, he emphasizes that using it as a general diet for weight loss or metabolic health improvement is a major mistake. He adds that most of those who recommend keto ignore its long-term side effects and only talk about the rapid results that evaporate once carbohydrates are reintroduced.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a frank and direct critique of the keto diet: those who follow keto do not truly improve; rather, they either develop an autoimmune disease or hair loss, and their inflammation response loses its ability to function normally. This does not mean that the Tayyibat System calls for excessive consumption of processed carbohydrates or white sugar, but rather that the body needs clean, easy-to-digest carbohydrates as part of a balanced system, not as an enemy to be completely eliminated. The true understanding of the body’s energy source – as the doctor sees it – is the key to sustainable health, not aligning with any system that adopts elimination and extremism at the expense of the body’s natural balance.

Presenting the Case: Who Was This Woman and What Was She Suffering From?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains the case of a woman who suffered from multiple sclerosis (MS) and was undergoing regular follow-ups with MRI scans. This woman did not only suffer from the known symptoms of multiple sclerosis, but the MRI also showed a small tumor in the pituitary gland measuring 5mm. This tumor was not malignant in an aggressive sense, but it was a small pituitary adenoma that raises questions about its relationship with the chronic inflammation she was already suffering from.

Multiple Sclerosis and Inflammatory Lesions: A Simple Understanding of the Disease

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the myelin sheath surrounding nerve fibers in the brain and spinal cord. This immune attack produces foci of inflammation and scarring (plaques) that appear clearly on MRI scans. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that these lesions are not just static scars, but rather active areas of chronic inflammation that can regress or expand depending on the body’s general condition and the level of immune stimulation.

The Small Pituitary Adenoma: What Was Its Size and Where Was It?

The pituitary gland is a small gland about the size of a pea located at the base of the brain, sometimes called the “master gland” of the endocrine system because it controls the body’s main hormones. The woman suffered from a small pituitary adenoma measuring 5mm. Small pituitary adenomas are relatively common, but their presence alongside active multiple sclerosis made this case an opportunity to understand how chronic inflammation affects different tissues in the body simultaneously.

What Changed in the Body After 4 Months of Applying the Tayyibat System?

After 4 months of adhering to the Tayyibat System, the woman underwent a new MRI for follow-up. The results were striking: the multiple sclerosis lesions in the brain and spinal cord showed clear shrinkage, and more surprisingly, the pituitary adenoma shrank from 5mm to 2.5mm. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that this change was not just a halt in growth, but a true shrinkage in the size of both the inflammatory lesions and the tumor itself. It is important to note here that the woman was still using some medications during this period, and only part of them were stopped under medical supervision, and this is an individual case that does not mean generalizing the result to every patient.

How Does Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi Connect Chronic Inflammation with Tumor Growth?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that chronic inflammation is the primary driver of many disease conditions that appear superficially unrelated. When the body lives in a state of continuous inflammation due to burdensome inputs (hard-to-digest foods, toxins, immune irritants), it enters a state of constant alert. This state stimulates abnormal cell division in some areas and may contribute to the growth of small benign tumors like the pituitary adenoma. The doctor explains that removing the causes of inflammation (not the tumor itself) is what allows the body to return to a state of stability, and then small tumors may regress or stop growing. This does not mean that every tumor will regress, but it shows that inflammation was a contributing factor in this specific case.

Why Does the Tayyibat System View the Body as One Integrated System Rather Than Separate Organs?

The surprise in this case is not only the regression of multiple sclerosis lesions but also the regression of the pituitary adenoma at the same time. This event provides practical evidence of a core idea in the Tayyibat System: the body is not a collection of separate organs, but rather one integrated system where each part is affected by the general state of inflammation, immunity, and digestion. When inflammation is high, the joints, skin, brain, and glands may all suffer together. When inflammation subsides, all these organs may improve together. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that precise medical specialization is necessary, but it may sometimes cause the doctor to lose sight of the bigger picture. The Tayyibat System attempts to restore the vision of the body as an integrated whole, where reducing the daily burden on the intestines and immune system reflects positively on every cell, including the cells of the pituitary gland and the central nervous system.

Conclusion

The case of the woman suffering from multiple sclerosis and pituitary adenoma in the Tayyibat System provides a practical example of the deeper question: what happens to the body when chronic inflammation subsides? Within only 4 months, the MRI showed shrinkage of multiple sclerosis lesions in the brain and spinal cord and shrinkage of the pituitary adenoma from 5mm to 2.5mm. This change does not mean a “cure for MS” or “removal of the tumor” definitively, nor can it be generalized to all patients, but it clearly shows how reducing the inflammatory load on the body can produce substantial changes in tissues that seem far removed from food. Inflammation is the real focus here, and food in the Tayyibat System is the tool that addresses this inflammation at its roots.

Why Does Chronic Headache Not Necessarily Mean a Problem in the Brain?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that the brain itself does not contain pain receptors the way they exist in the skin, muscles, or peripheral nerves. This means that brain tissue does not feel pain when directly pressed or moved. This indicates that the sensation of headache usually does not come from the brain itself, but from the surrounding structures such as the meninges, blood vessels, cranial nerves, and the muscles of the neck and head. The doctor explains that the common confusion is considering every headache a sign of danger in the brain, while most recurring headache episodes originate outside the brain tissue itself.

What Are the Nerves Supplying the Head and Potential Sources of Headache?

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that understanding the pathways of the nerves supplying the head is the key to interpreting chronic headache in the Tayyibat System. He mentions that the most prominent of these nerves is the trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for sensation in most of the face, forehead, and front of the head. When this nerve becomes irritated due to inflammation in the blood vessels or meninges, or even due to pressure coming from the neck, it generates a sensation of headache that may be severe and is often misdiagnosed as a migraine. The doctor adds that the upper cervical nerves that emerge from the spinal cord in the neck region share in supplying the back and sides of the head, meaning that any source of irritation to these nerves—whether inflammation, muscle spasms, or compression from neck cartilage—can produce a headache that the patient feels in the back of the head or behind the eyes.

Types of Headache: Why Do Names Differ Without a Difference in Root Cause?

In the Tayyibat System, the doctor does not focus on the different names of headaches as much as he focuses on understanding the common source. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, explains that medical names such as migraine, cluster headache, tension headache, or cervicogenic headache may seem different, but in many cases they share one origin: the presence of irritation or inflammation in the nerves supplying the head along with a digestive or inflammatory dysfunction elsewhere in the body. The doctor believes that repeating the medical name without reaching the root cause may keep the patient inside a cycle of treating symptoms instead of removing the primary trigger.

The LDL Story: An Illustrative Example of How to Incorrectly Link Evidence

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, provides an important analogy to understand the concept of chronic headache. He says that many doctors see elevated LDL (bad cholesterol) in lab tests and conclude that this elevation is the cause of atherosclerosis, then prescribe medications to lower it. But the doctor explains that LDL itself is not the primary cause; rather, it is a laboratory marker that reflects the body’s strategy under chronic stress. Similarly, when a patient suffers from chronic headaches, many rush to perform CT scans or MRIs of the brain searching for a tumor or clot, while the real source may be in the neck, intestines, or even in the type of food that irritates the nervous system daily.

The Role of the Neck, Cartilage, and Spasms in Producing Chronic Headache

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, believes that the neck is one of the most important hidden sources of chronic headache. He explains that the cervical intervertebral discs, small joints, and joint capsules are all rich in nerves. When any change occurs in these cartilages—whether due to incorrect sitting, an old injury, or even an inappropriate sleeping posture—these nerves become compressed or irritated, and this irritation extends through neural pathways to the head nerves, causing a headache that the patient may feel in the forehead, behind the eyes, or in the back of the head. The doctor adds that deep muscle spasms in the neck can compress the nerves emerging from the spinal cord, agitating these nerves and creating a series of neural signals that are ultimately interpreted as a headache. Hence the importance of treating the neck and correcting sitting and sleeping posture as part of the recovery plan from chronic headache within the Tayyibat System.

Inflammation, the Intestines, and the Nervous System: The Hidden Connection Behind Headache

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, points out that chronic headache may actually be a manifestation of low-grade chronic inflammation, which often begins in the intestines. He explains that when the digestive system is exposed daily to difficult-to-digest foods, toxins, or irritants (such as white flour, dairy, or processed foods), the intestinal wall becomes irritated and its permeability increases, then irritating molecules transfer into the blood and reach the nerves supplying the head through the bloodstream, or stimulate the central nervous system via the vagus nerve. The doctor explains that this connection between the intestines, the nervous system, and the nerves supplying the head means that chronic headache may simply be the way the body complains about poor handling of food. Therefore, in the Tayyibat System, when a patient comes complaining of chronic or recurrent migraines, the doctor may begin by examining his intestines, food quality, and neck, not just his brain.

What Does Practical Application Look Like in the Tayyibat System?

Practical application of this understanding begins with a comprehensive review of daily food, especially foods that cause silent irritation or inflammation. Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, recommends trying to avoid forbidden foods in the Tayyibat System (white flour, dairy, eggs, certain proteins) for a period sufficient to notice a change in headache episodes. He also advises reviewing neck posture during sleep, sitting, and computer work, and possibly adding simple exercises to release deep neck spasms. The doctor adds that periods of fasting (intermittent fasting) can be very beneficial in cases of chronic headache, as they give the digestive system rest and allow inflammation to subside, but he warns against applying fasting without evaluating the patient’s general condition, especially if they are taking medication for diabetes or blood pressure.

Conclusion

Dr. Diaa Al-Awadi, may Allah have mercy on him, presents in the Tayyibat System a different understanding of chronic headache: that many cases of recurrent headache and migraine do not originate from the brain itself but from irritation of the nerves supplying the head due to the neck, cartilage, or spasms, or from inflammation that begins in the intestines and spreads through the nervous and immune systems. Therefore, when evaluating a patient suffering from chronic headaches, the doctor may look at his neck and intestines first, because he believes that treating the root cause (burdensome inputs, inflammation, nerve compression) is the path to lasting relief, not just silencing the episode with temporary painkillers.
