It seems the past months have been sad ones as we have lost more of the “old rabbits” of our field. For some mystical reason we are seeing ever more losses of those who have been the innovators and the guiding lights of biological medicine. In this issue it is my sad duty to inform you about the passing of two more great men, Dr. med. Dieter Hager and the engineer Erich Rasche. Such losses seem to lend me words along with the tears. We have lost so many [...]
Is this the same as the potential energy associated with a Scalar Field? "They call it the God particle: a mysterious sub-atomic fragment that permeates the entire universe and explains how everything is the way it is. Nobody has ever seen the God particle; some say it doesn't exist but, in the ultimate leap of faith, physicists across the world are preparing to build one of the most ambitious and expensive science experiments the world has ever seen to try to find it." – David [...]
A root cause of many evils! pH definition: symbol for the logarithm of the reciprocal of the H+ ion concentration. I just completed teaching a seminar where I was interrupted by a young lady who desperately needed to try and impress me (and the audience) with how much she knew about the cause of disease. It seems she had read a book that explained “Everyone” knows and believes that death is caused by the presence of free radicals. She proceeded to ask me if I believed that to be [...]
THERAPY TIP For this issue, some comments from Dr. Brian L. MacCoy, Idaho, USA Revue / Journal Title International journal of oncology ISSN 1019-6439 S-acetyl glutathione Reduced apoptosis is associated to cancer development. Agents able to restore the programmed cell death responsiveness of cancer cells are foreseen as potential effective cancer therapies. In this study, we report that a glutathione-S-derivative, S-acetyl-glutathione (Sag), induces significant apoptosis in three human lymphoma cell lines. We used Annexin-V FACS analysis and DNA laddering to demonstrate that Sag activated apoptosis in the three sensitive [...]
POINTS OF INTEREST The Investigation by IMGEAV Background and Strategies Besides measurement of static measuring values the examination by IMGEAV also contains the more complex measurement of the dynamic indicator. The static values (indicator values of 0, 50 and 100 scale units) are measured with fixed resistances and are also easily understood by the user. However the indicator dynamic can only be shown in the laboratory. It is tested on 4 electrically simulated “artificial” acupuncture points with measuring values of 53, 68, 82 and 90, by which the most [...]
