The Basics of Life

What are the foundations of life, and what is Life-supporting Medicine? To sustain life and support life processes, nature makes tremendous efforts. If something has gone wrong in the organism and illness occurs, it is never a trifle, but a fundamental disorder. This indicates complicated interrelationships. They are for the most part unexplored. Despite everything, there are always very simple principles that need to be recognised. This book identifies such principles, from which often amazingly simple guidelines for nutrition and medical treatment can be derived. However, it is crucial that no suppressive and destructive measures are used, but rather supportive, integrating methods. The author broadens the horizon with well-founded scientific research results, which lead to completely new insights and enable a different, life-supporting view of the human being.
