Many natural therapists & naturopaths use the study of the iris of your eye to identify possible health issues. The idea is that your iris would normally be fairly clear of spots, patches etc and where any irregular feature exists in the iris, it corresponds to an area/organ of the body. I am open minded about such things; neither believing or disbelieving in iridology. There used to be some quite dark spots and some small brown bits in the area corresponding to lungs. I kept an eye (ha ha accidental pun) on the darkest spot, worrying it meant the dreaded C.

So why am I talking about Iridology? Yes, it is vaping-related. The other day I was using a magnifying mirror to apply eye make-up and I happened to look at my irises. After 11 months of vaping instead of smoking, the spots in the area relating to lungs have now disappeared. Gone. There is just my clear, blue irises. Interesting, eh?
Now I just have to work on those spots relating to the liver... :laugh:

That's very interesting Katz! I think that old saying that goes something like 'the soul is reflected in the eyes' to have truth.
Always been interested in the iris of eyes cus I was born with large pupiis and my iris is flecked with different colors. My school years in the 70's were full of drama :D

Wow, thats very interesting! And cool that your spots have disappeared. Now im wondering how i would notice dark spots on brown eyes!
Well I suppose it depends how dark brown they are. Having blue eyes does make this sort of thing more noticeable, for sure.

Hehehehe I am not going to ask...

Very fascinating! When my son was a baby he suffered terribly from ear infections and I took him to see an iridologist. Me being a bit of cynic only mentioned to her that I suspected he had food allergies and I said nothing about his ears. She looked at his eyes abs said immediately that he had scar tissue on his ear drums!

Alright, I had to take a look, and compare to a chart at http://sunshine-house.com/assets/images/iridology_chart_large.jpg

I might have adrenal issues, whatever that means. Or I'm perfectly healthy. Kinda hard to tell with hazel eyes.

Neat stuff! And OBTW, after hearing about the Blood Type Diet, I read up on it and compared it to myself. I believe its true.

That's awesome Ms. Katz. :) Are you saying alcohol isn't good for the liver?
Just something I heard somewhere...

Say Katz.....I was just wondering....do you wipe down the mirror every time before checking your Irises? :p
:lol::lol::lol:

Wow, sounds like there could be something in all this. I really am not sure how they can do it for really dark eyes Lisa.
