The lymphatic system One of the most important keys to health is an optimally functioning immune system. An often overlooked component of immune function is the network of pre-lymphducts, lymphducts and lymphnodes throughout the entire body, transporting lymph fluid and eliminating toxins. The lymphatic system is the primary circulatory system used by all immunological cells: … Continue reading Manual Lymph drainage
What is Gerson Therapy?
"There is no cancer in normal metabolism," wrote Max Gerson, M.D. ( 1881-1959). A pioneer of what is today known as nutritional metabolic therapy, the German-born physician, who lived in the United States for twenty-three years, believed that cancer cannot occur unless the functions of the liver, the pancreas, and the immune system as well … Continue reading What is Gerson Therapy?
Alkaline Diet
The internal environment of our bodies is maintained at a pH of just about 7.0. This means our internal environment is alkaline. Maintenance of this state is a dynamic, not static, process mediated moment to moment by numerous reactions that produce acid products. Our internal chemical equilibrium is primarily controlled by our lungs, kidneys, intestines, and skin. … Continue reading Alkaline Diet
DETERMINATION OF OXIDATION TYPE BY MEANS OF TISSUE ELECTROLYTE RATIOS
Abstract A method of determining oxidation types by means of hair tissue mineral ratios was evaluated by reviewing 55 patient files. Correlations were assessed between tissue calcium/potassium, sodium/magnesium, and sodium/potassium ratios, and nine signs and symptoms of oxidation type. Hair mineral ratios were found to be good predictors of signs and symptoms of oxidation type. Introduction … Continue reading DETERMINATION OF OXIDATION TYPE BY MEANS OF TISSUE ELECTROLYTE RATIOS
What is a severe Erythrocyte aggregation?
Erythrocyte aggregation is a finding similar to rouleau, however, it is more serious as it results in greater impairment in oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange because of its ability to occlude larger microvascular elements through increased red cell mass. There are several pathological causes for increased attraction between the red cells and most are due … Continue reading What is a severe Erythrocyte aggregation?
What is a severe Thrombocyte Aggregation?
Severe platelet (thrombocyte) aggregation can be a serious finding. Platelet aggregation can contribute to cardio-vascular disease which is the number one cause of death in the western world. Certainly additional laboratory work should be ordered to determine the cause of the platelet aggregation. Several organic substances may promote platelet clumping which include collagen, ADP, the … Continue reading What is a severe Thrombocyte Aggregation?
Mad Cow Disease in the USA: Understand Prions, Part II
Prions have been known by many scientists for many years. They are believed to cause disease by triggering an immune response when they enter an animal or human body. In 1997, Stanley Prusiner, MD, won the Nobel Prize for his discovery of prions, an acronym for proteinaceous infectious particles. Prions are associated with a variety … Continue reading Mad Cow Disease in the USA: Understand Prions, Part II
Mad cow disease research breakthrough: scientists recreate prions in the lab
Scientists in California have created the first synthetic version of prions. These are the so-called "rogue proteins" that are responsible for mad cow disease. To understand the significance of this research, it helps to fully understand what prions are in the first place and how they cause mad cow disease. Prions are abnormally folded proteins, … Continue reading Mad cow disease research breakthrough: scientists recreate prions in the lab
Louis Pasteur vs. Antoine Bechamp: Know the True Causes of Disease
Mainstream medicine believes that virtually all illness is caused by germs or genetic hereditary weakness, as well as deformities and trauma injuries. Their solution and strategy is to have us believe that there are over 10,000 different diseases and that each of these diseases requires outside intervention from drugs and surgery. The truth is that most … Continue reading Louis Pasteur vs. Antoine Bechamp: Know the True Causes of Disease
What is a chondrit?
To this day, the cell is regarded as the ultimate organic unit, out of which all higher organisms are built up. Even Haeckel believed he had found the proto-organism in the one-celled protozoans. When I formulated the concept Symprotit and its sub-unit Protit as the primeval unit of life in the form of a quite … Continue reading What is a chondrit?
