IO2Th/Engler, An Overview for Patients & Doctors By Dr. Med. Univ. Ivan Engler In the article “Oxygen Therapies? Yes! But with which Oxygen?” more than five different oxygen forms were reported (OM & Ernährung 2006/Nr. 117, The Bridge, Volume 4, Issue #2). We speak about oxygen, but there are five oxygen forms. Table 1: Five Oxygen forms (regarding IO2Th/Engler see Table 4) Molecular, medical oxygen = O2 Ozone = O3 Positively ionized oxygen = O2+ Negatively ionized oxygen = O2- Singlet oxygen = 1O2 [...]

Oxygen Therapies? Yes! But with which oxygen? Physical and biological characteristics of the oxygen forms and their therapeutic applications The atmospheric air in which scavengers of aerobic organisms – thus also of humans – has adapted in the course of millions of years, and up to 50 years ago was still a pure gas mixture made above all from nitrogen and the five forms of oxygen (O2, O2•-, O2•+, 1O2, O3), the so called 21% NITROX. The air of today is burdened in many ways  (SOx, NOx, >COx, >O3, [...]

FAQs: Points of Interest! This is a column that has been missing from the past few issues, but with the recent introduction of new instrumentation there has once again been a flurry of phone calls and e-mails asking about these devices and comparisons to other competitive products. I must say I am always reluctant to make comparisons between OIRF recommended instrumentation and the “other guys”. It has always been our philosophy that we should never run down the “other guys” to make our own products [...]

The theory of bioinformative medicine The practical application of the latest discoveries Introduction: In the alternative medicine, it has been shown that it is advantageous to transmit allergens or body substances (blood, spit, saliva) electromagnetically onto an isotonic salt solution and use the resulting nosode for the oral after-treatment of the patient. This transmission is only comprehensible when a phase relationship between the patient and the nosode exists. The holographic world view can deliver the best explanation for this (see appendix [sic-not available]). During the process of transferring (oscillatory) [...]

November 30, 2007 Dear Members: In spite of the hectic schedule and multiple trans-Atlantic flights of the last month, this has been a most interesting and exciting time. Separately you will find some preliminary information on two of the new therapy and diagnostic products that the Institute will be introducing over the next few months. With this issue of “The Bridge” we are introducing the magnetic field therapy devices of Advanced Medical Systems (AMS) and a fantastic line of hand held lasers by Power Medic. AMS is the company [...]

Low Protein versus High Protein Diets: Their Effects on the body's pH levels. Abstract It is the argument of this paper that a low protein, low carbohydrate diet is health promoting, while current high protein diets can be injurious to health. The findings in this paper are drawn from a literature based survey on pH levels – the balance of acid and alkaline within the body – and the contribution that diet may make either to disease or to the promotion of health. Debates about [...]

The True Biological Background of the Myth, Part 2 AIDS belongs among the unavoidably fatal diseases. Whoever gets a positive AIDS test from then on believes he is reading his death sentence. General practitioner Juliane Sacher explains in this article why the HIV test states nothing about a virus disease called AIDS. In the last issue of raum & zeit I dealt with the beginning of the HIV/AIDS history (“AIDS – The Chronology of a Mistake, r&z Vol. 24, #141, [...]

Vincent's Bioelectronic Evaluation (B.E.V.) Acid/Base Balance in Theory and Practice By Dr. Helmut Elmau Translation by Dr. Antony Scott-Morley of a German language book. Bioelectronic Vincent has become of special interest to doctors and healers. Even so, it is not so well know that it is fully understood. If Bioelectronics seems difficult to comprehend it is because the theoretical basis is pure physics. Most doctors are used to thinking in terms of biological and biochemical disturbances. Physics, although the real basis of our science, is generally not understood and [...]
