Autoimmune Diseases - Almost a "Common Ailment"

Dr. med. Thomas Rau

 

Autoimmune disorders are a group of diseases that are rapidly increasing in prevalence, to the point where they can almost be considered a "common ailment." From a conventional medical standpoint, autoimmune disorders encompass a variety of diseases that manifest differently depending on the affected organ and the patient's constitution.

 

The problem lies in the fact that conventional medicine fails to recognize the underlying causes and labels these diseases as "idiopathic," meaning of unknown origin. For instance, autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's disease) is the fastest-growing disease in the United States (after "Lyme disease," which, in our understanding, is not a single disease). However, there are many other diseases belonging to this group, such as:

 

• Multiple sclerosis
• Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), fatal in 90% of cases within 2-4 years
• Rheumatoid arthritis and juvenile arthritis
• Ankylosing spondylitis
• Ulcerative colitis
• Crohn's disease (autoimmune ileo-colitis)
• Lupus erythematosus
• Sjögren's syndrome
• Hashimoto's thyroiditis
• Idiopathic thrombocytopenia
• Myelodysplastic syndrome (bone marrow failure with anemia)
• Chronic fatigue syndrome
• Fibromyalgia

 

In all of these diagnoses, the underlying cause is unknown in conventional medicine, and they are typically treated with suppressive methods such as corticosteroids (steroids) in the past and now with anti-inflammatory drugs, chemotherapy (immunosuppressive), or the new and extremely expensive antibody therapies like Humira or similar drugs.

 

Why is the cause still unknown despite advances in science?

It may be because there is no single cause, but rather a highly individual combination of causes and a profound derangement of the immune system.

 

The gut as the main regulator of the immune system

Why is Biological Medicine so remarkably successful in treating these diseases? It's because we consider, test, and treat the entire interplay of underlying causes and always pay significant attention to the gut as the main regulator of the immune system.

 

What are these underlying causes that need to be consistently and durably addressed?

When we analyze the main findings of 500 to 1000 patients, we most commonly observe the following underlying problems:

 

• Dental focal infections and chronic bacterial jaw inflammation
• Heavy metal burden
• Organic and toxic exposures
• Severe disturbances in the gut microbiome
• Pronounced disruptions of the intestinal mucosa and gut T-lymphocytes
• Food allergies (IgG-4 disorders)
• Major nutritional deficiencies and fatty acid imbalances
• Mineral and trace element deficiencies
• Vitamin deficiencies
• Electromagnetic stress
• Genetic impairments in detoxification capacity or antioxidant performance
• Hormonal disorders, particularly neuroendocrine disorders
• Severe autonomic nervous system disturbances (now measurable!)

 

By addressing and eliminating all identified disturbances, the vast majority of autoimmune conditions improve significantly. However, this process takes months to often two years.

 

And behold: the patients we treat for multiple sclerosis (MS) usually experience fewer relapses, and many achieve substantial healing. In the case of ulcerative colitis, we have over 60% full recoveries. Practically all patients show significant improvement under our treatments without the need for the usual harmful medications.

 

We treat the whole person, not just the diagnoses!

Our treatments are highly individualized. We don't treat diagnoses; instead, we treat individuals and their underlying causes. The treatment approach varies depending on the identified underlying causes. The chemical medications typically prescribed to patients can be gradually reduced and eventually discontinued, often within a few months.

 

Our treatment integrates: 

• Dietary changes based on identified intolerances and the nutritional needs identified through darkfield microscopy.
• Consistent detoxification therapies using infusions and specific remedies, including our specialty, the  detoxification infusions.
• Immune system enhancement through specific Sanum therapies that improve white blood cell count and immunoglobulin levels.
• Gut restoration therapies, as autoimmune patients almost always suffer from severe dysbiosis and sometimes highly toxic gut bacteria. Colon hydrotherapy and reconstitution, including bacterial instillations, often have a profound effect on immune system regulation.
• Biological anti-inflammatory therapies, such as frankincense (Boswellia) treatments and correction of patients' fatty acid profiles. Pulsed magnetic field therapy can also work wonders in alleviating excessive inflammation.

 

Our specialty, SANUM therapy, using immunobiological remedies made from bacterial particles, has proven to be very effective.

• Neural therapies with Sanum and homeopathic remedies, targeting specific acupuncture points, are a special therapy developed. We even teach this therapy worldwide in educational courses!
• Orthomolecular rebuilding therapies using trace elements, vitamins, and specific fatty acids. Initially, we often administer "building infusion" treatments that patients can continue at home.
• Holistic dentistry: On the first day of treatment, every patient undergoes dental tomography and toxicological examinations. If necessary, they are advised to correct any dental situations that trigger the disease. It is alarming how frequently dental and heavy metal situations contribute to autoimmune diseases, often going unnoticed or unassessed by previous practitioners and "specialists."
• Special methods such as hyperthermia, oncothermia, ion induction therapies, or the intensive detoxification program (liver cleansing) are applied in a highly individualized manner.

 

Overall, this combination of therapies greatly improves cellular metabolism, allowing the body to regain its self-healing function within a few weeks to months.

 

CONCLUSION: We approach the often-challenging autoimmune diseases intensively, focusing on long-term body restoration, removing as many underlying causes as possible, and as a result, achieve excellent outcomes.
