Metabolic diseases

Metabolic diseases and therapy

What are metabolic diseases?

Metabolic diseases arise from disturbances in the body's energy, hormone, or nutrient balance. These can be genetic or caused by an unhealthy diet, environmental toxins, or lack of exercise.

Common metabolic diseases and their causes

  1. Diabetes mellitus (Type 1 & Type 2)
  • Type 1: Autoimmune disease, insulin deficiency
  • Type 2: Insulin resistance due to obesity, poor diet
  1. Metabolic syndrome
  • Combination of obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes & high blood lipids
  1. Thyroid diseases (hypothyroidism / Hashimoto / hyperthyroidism)
  • Hypothyroidism (fatigue, weight gain)
  • Hyperthyroidism (nervousness, weight loss)
  • Autoimmune disease (Hashimoto)
  1. Gout (hyperuricemia)
  • Uric acid crystals accumulate in joints, leading to inflammation
  1. Fatty liver (non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, NAFLD)
  • Due to too much sugar & fat, insulin resistance, inflammation
  1. Lipedema / Lymphedema
  • Fat distribution disorder with water retention & pain
  1. Mitochondrial dysfunction
  • Cell energy disturbance, often in chronic diseases

Holistic therapeutic approaches for metabolic diseases

1. Ozone therapy for metabolic regulation

  • Large Autohemotherapy (GEB) → Regulates the immune system & improves cell metabolism
  • Rectal ozone insufflation (ROI) → Promotes detoxification & fat metabolism
  • Ozonated infusions → Stimulates mitochondria & reduces inflammation

2. Infusion & nutrient therapy

  • High-dose vitamin C → Supports sugar metabolism & protects against oxidative stress
  • Glutathione infusions → Promotes liver detoxification & protects cells
  • Magnesium & Amino Acids → Regulates blood sugar & muscle metabolism
  • Curcumin & Resveratrol → Anti-inflammatory & increasing insulin sensitivity
  • NAD Infusions → Promotes cellular energy production & regenerates mitochondria

3. Detox & heavy metal elimination

  • Chelation therapy → Removes toxic metals that can block metabolism
  • ME2.Vie System Treatment → Cell regeneration & improvement of energy production

4. Natural therapeutic approaches

  • Leech therapy → Supports blood circulation & lymphatic drainage
  • Cupping (Hijama) → Detoxifies the blood & promotes liver function
  • Autologous blood therapy → Strengthens the immune system & metabolic processes

5. Nutrition & Lifestyle Optimization

  • Low-glycemic diet (low sugar, lots of vegetables, healthy fats)
  • Ketogenic or intermittent fasting strategies to improve insulin sensitivity
  • Exercise therapy (strength training & endurance sports to activate metabolism)
  • Stress management (yoga, meditation, sleep optimization)

Individual therapy planning

Metabolic diseases require comprehensive therapy consisting of ozone treatment, infusions, detox and nutritional adjustment in order to regenerate the body in the long term.
