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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

BOOK REVIEW Mitochondrial Pathology, Cancer and MORA® By Dr. med. dent. Gottfried Cornelissen English translation by Marguerite Lane, ND This text is primarily intended to be a continuation of Volume III Degeneration, Cancer and MORA. It is, however, possible to use it as a stand-alone text. The most recent research results, with their brand new theoretical approaches differ from all of the conventional ideas of Tumour treatment, and everyone can benefit from them. There are four main volumes, with a logical progression of topics: Volume 1 The New Diagnostic [...]

The Importance of the Intermediaries of the Citric Acid Cycle for Bioregulatory Medicine The citric acid or tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle) localized in the mitochondria and the interconnected electron transport chain (ETC) lead to the formation of ATP, the most important energy source of the cell. The TCA cycle is the shared final stage for the dismantling of all nutrients and is therefore the actual life preserving turntable of the metabolism. There all components of the tissues (carbohydrates, proteins and [...]

In this article I would like to present some interesting observations made during the course of this year. Before discussing these observations a broad description of geopathic stress is presented in order to help orientate those readers who are less familiar with these concepts. Geopathic Stress A vexing question for the physician is why some patients, despite excellent and appropriate therapy, fail to respond to treatment or give only a marginal response. Sometimes there is a good response only to be followed by relapse; sometimes [...]

For this Issue it is with the greatest of pleasure that I bring good news. The pages of the German journals have been filled with news about the happy celebrations for the birthdays of five honored and respected leaders within our field of Biological Medicine. They are all teachers, practitioners and researchers. These men are the giants that we all look up to and seek to learn from. I hope you will join with me in wishing heartfelt appreciation and joy as they celebrate these milestone birthdays. All of [...]

BOOK REVIEW WHY WOMEN IN CHINA DO NOT GET BREAST CANCER I had no alternative but to die or to try to find a cure for myself. I am a scientist – surely there was a rational explanation for this cruel illness that affects one in 12 women in the UK? I had suffered the loss of one breast, and undergone radiotherapy. I was now receiving painful chemotherapy, and had been seen by some of the country's most eminent specialists. But, deep down, I felt certain I was facing [...]
