The Crisis in Biological Medicine in North America Over the past few years we have witnessed the continuing losses of the men and women who pioneered this field of Biological Medicine, and who have struggled so hard to find, research and apply those methods which are most effective. However even in light of these losses, I cannot yet see where the “next generation” – the “younger” practitioners – are stepping forward to take on the research work necessary to support the continuation of these methods into the future. Think [...]

Using Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy Allergy is one of those topics that generate a great deal of debate. There is even disagreement about basics, such as what allergies are, the mechanisms of allergy reactions, methods of testing, etc. I am not going to address these issues here, as there are volumes of information available. Rather, I am going to present a brief description of a method of therapy I’ve developed by combining and expanding two separate approaches. Sensitivity Removal Technique (SRT) [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST Global burden of cancers attributable to infections in 2008: a review and synthetic analysis Catherine de Martel MD, Jacques Ferlay ME, Silvia Franceschi MD, Jérôme Vignat MSc, Freddie Bray PhD, David Forman PhD, Dr Martyn Plummer PhD Summary Background Infections with certain viruses, bacteria, and parasites have been identified as strong risk factors for specific cancers. An update of their respective contribution to the global burden of cancer is warranted. Methods We considered infectious agents classified as carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research [...]

Introduction: Since the causal connection between the papillomavirus and cervical cancer was investigated, such a [connection] also seems to exist with other tumor and virus types. On the other hand, the use of “vaccination viruses” in the tumor fight is also explored in the framework of virus therapy. Oncolytic viruses are able to increase selectively in the tissues of the tumors and metastases and to attack these. An effective point of attack could also be identified by the evidence of stem cells in the tumor conglomerate. For virus therapy [...]

Immune System Disease Hits Asians With AIDS-Like Symptoms CP | By Marilynn Marchione, The Associated Press Posted: Huffington Post, 08/22/2012 5:09 pm Updated: 08/22/2012 5:30 pm Researchers have identified a mysterious new disease that has left scores of people in Asia and some in the United States with AIDS-like symptoms even though they are not infected with HIV. The patients' immune systems become damaged, leaving them unable to fend off germs as healthy people do. What triggers this isn't known, but the disease does not seem to be contagious. [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST Letter from the Publisher Jonathan Collin, MD Townsend Letter #348, July 2012 www.townsendletter.com Professor Ruggiero on HIV and AIDS Marco Ruggiero is a professor at the Institute of Experimental Pathology and Oncology at the University of Florence. Professor Ruggiero belongs to a small club of scientists who do not believe that HIV is the cause of AIDS. Professor Peter Duesberg, PhD at the University of California at Berkeley championed this theory in the early 1990s. Duesberg was rewarded for his public discussion of HIV not being [...]

Reflections on the Occidental Institute Symposium and Advanced Biological Medicine By Gary M. Verigin, DDS, CTN (Symposium Lecturer) One of the best things about attending the Occidental Institute’s 40th anniversary symposium in Vancouver, BC, this past June was re-connecting with Carolyn Winsor-Sturm. She’s the Institute’s managing director and CEO, and also an old friend and mentor. In fact, my journey in biological dental medicine began with her and her late husband, Dr. Walter Sturm. The Occidental Institute Research Foundation (OIRF) was the first organization in [...]

In previous contributions to “The Bridge” I have written mainly about EAV techniques. In this article I would like to talk about the possibilities offered by the Index scales of the VEGATEST. I am very aware that most readers probably use the VEGATEST rather than EAV. Neither test is superior to the other but they both complement each other very well and a well-rounded practitioner should be able to handle both tests with equal facility. EAV has the advantage of dealing with raw measurement data [...]

Since 1995 I have been invited to deliver an annual lecture and seminar on aspects of bioresonance medicine. This invitation has come from the “Imedis” Centre for Intellectual Studies. The Imedis Company manufactures their own bioresonance equipment and software but perhaps more important they have, together with various Russian universities, conducted much investigation into bioresonance medicine and its effectiveness. Being invited to their annual conference has been highly educative and has given me a unique opportunity to observe developments in countries (Russian Federation) not normally associated with bioresonance. I [...]
