The Bürgi Principle* is promising to use and to combine Rhus Toxicodendron (Toxicodendron quercifolium) The regulation ability of our organism depends on the balance between proteolysis and protease inhibition. For examination of the actual state of tissue buildup and reduction in the dynamic equilibrium of the organism, a permanent subclinical inflammation readiness exists in the different tissues [Overview in 5, 6]. Tumors and chronic illnesses do not adhere to this: Where at first for its development and propagation the defense system has to “go blind”, [...]

A Personal Message from Theodore (Ted) J. Cole, DO, NMD, Ohio, USA Crowded rooms, same old hotels, boring lectures. Are you ready for the experience of a lifetime? Carolyn Winsor-Sturm and Occidental Institute Research Foundation announce their 39th Biological Medicine Tour to Germany. Carolyn and her staff have produced the longest running and best tour of its kind in existence. Carolyn is an insider of the German medical scene, and personally knows all of the major researchers and practitioners. She has built these relationships over years, and is able [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST Unknown to most Missourians, Missouri had a close encounter with UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) and aliens near Cape Girardeau before the famous Roswell incident happened in New Mexico in 1947. The source of the information was from one of my patients who is a university librarian who recently gave me a copy of an article which I briefly scanned. I politely took the article and threw it in the trash. I thought she was one of those oddball, weird people who are attracted to not only [...]

A Long-Standing, Covert Health Threat While mycoplasma was first identified in animals in 1898 and humans in 1932, its considerable health dangers and implications have only in the last several decades become more apparent. Existing somewhere between a virus and typical bacteria, mycoplasmas are known to be the smallest, free-living organisms in the world. Unlike traditional bacteria having solid cell walls, cell-wall deficient mycoplasmas take on many different shapes, making them sometimes difficult to identify in the laboratory and also difficult to culture. Cell wall deficient microorganisms are typically [...]

AIDS – The Chronology of a Misunderstanding The “AIDS” problem has already occupied [the pages of] raum&zeit since the beginning, when the topic moved (was moved) into the focus of the public at the beginning of the 1980’s with the discovery of the first five AIDS cases. At that time, one of the most important authors was certainly Prof. Dr. Peter Duesberg (USA) as one of the first scientists who criticized the official AIDS/HIV theory. In 1990 he wrote among other [...]

At a recent conference I was delighted to join a group going out for dinner. As always the discussions going around the table of some dozen biological medicine doctors were excited, at times heated and always interesting. At one point I grumbled (I thought quietly) about a lecturer of that day telling us how he was personally responsible for bringing Biological Medicine to North America and in the process not being respectful of the long history of the field here. As I mumbled away (under my breath I thought) [...]

POINTS OF INTEREST Submitted by Dr. Sir Zenon Gruba: Water Before Bedtime [Zenon’s note: I don’t know if this works – but it’s worth a try!] About 90% of heart attacks occur early in the morning and it can be minimized if one takes a glass or two of water – NOT grog or beer – before retiring in the evening. I knew water is important but I never knew about the special times to drink it. Did you?? Drinking water at the correct time maximizes its effectiveness on [...]

As the 30th anniversary of my practice approaches, I have been reviewing the different concepts of treatment and the modalities I have used over the years. While some have come and gone, others have been recognized as valid and have evolved into a sustaining part of my practice. One of the most valued and helpful concepts I have discovered is the identification of blocks to healing. In the beginning of my practice I didn’t always understand why some patients were just not responding to my [...]

Oxygen Therapies – A Scientific Comparison Traditional Oxygen Therapies Compared With The Progressive Principle of Spirovitalisation Survival time without solid food: 40 days; without liquid: 4 days; without oxygen: 4 minutes Introduction Science tells us that no higher life forms can exist without oxygen. This demonstrates the crucial significance of a continuous supply of the "elixir of life", oxygen, for all higher organisms. Adequate availability of oxygen is the prerequisite for all metabolic processes associated with the production of energy, a [...]
