COVID-19: PRINCIPLES

COVID-19 Pathophysiology?

Reproduction, pathophysiology, & spread.

I hope you read through the prior lesson carefully and thereby learnt what the COVID-19 virus is and an understanding of the basics of how viruses cause diseases. If not, please go back and study Lesson 1 Principles of COVID-19 disease, and Lesson 2 What is Coronavirus COVID-19, and then come back here.

How viruses reproduce & spread?

Viruses do not reproduce like other organisms. There are no male & female viruses. Viruses need a living organism (animals, humans) which have living cells in them (called hosts), into which viruses enter and then reproduce by use of the genetic material in these hosts and then continue to proliferate and damage the target organ.

Spread of viruses between the human population happens via any medium of common contact between two or more people: such as air, water, plants, animals, parasites etc.

How viruses damage organs and cause disease?

Here is the sequential process of how a virus reproduces, spreads and damages a target organ.

There are 7 important biochemical processes involved in the replication of a virus once it enters a living organism:

1. Adsorption

This is the very first step. The virus first moves into the human body and adsorbs to the first layer of immunity – the mucous membrane.

If the immunity of the individual is strong (or adapted to the specific virus), the virus is destroyed at this layer itself and eliminated. If the immunity is not strong then the virus passes through this barrier and moves on to step 2 – Attachment.

Quick insight: People having low vitamin C & D have weak immunity at the mucous membrane level which thereby puts them at risk to allow the virus to enter into the target organ. Patients with chronic disease in most cases have low Vitamin C & D, including deficiencies in other essential nutrients.

2. Attachment

Here the virus attaches to the target organ by attaching to the specific receptors of the target organ cell, which thereby allows it entry into the cell – step 3.

In the case of the novel covid-19 virus, once it passes through the mucous membrane (first immunity barrier) of  the respiratory system, it attaches to the wall of the type II pneumocytes (lung cells) by its spike proteins called the S-spike to the receptor called the ACE-2.

3. Entry

Once the virus attaches/binds to the cell surface receptor (lung cell in case of COVID-19), it then is allowed entry into the cell.

The best analogy for comprehension of this step is a door-lock-key-entry analogy. – Viruses have a protein coat with spike proteins (like antennas) on their surface which function like keys with a specific pattern, and the organ-cells have receptors on their surface which function like locks with a specific pattern. If any virus has the precise key pattern (spike proteins) to attach to the lock of the organ cell (receptors), it can then get entry into the cell.

4. Uncoating

After entry, the process of uncoating takes place where the viral protein coat (outer protein coat-layer of the virus) is removed by enzymes in the cell. This process of uncoating exposes the genetic material of the virus which in most cases is an RNA (ribo-nucleic acid).

5. Transcription/ mRNA Production (Genetic copying of the virus)

The viral RNA is then used by a polymerase enzyme (an enzyme inside the cell used for building proteins for cellular regeneration) to synthesize new RNA strands of the called mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid).

The newly synthesized RNA strands (virus gene) are then further used to form the genomic components of the newer copies of the virus which are done in step 6.

6. Protein Synthesis of virus components

The organ cell’s internal ribosomal machinery (a bio-mechanism used to produce components of a cell for cellular regeneration & reproduction) is then utilised for protein synthesis to build all the proteins (components) to assemble the new virus.

This process is called translation. The mRNA is translated by the ribosomes and two types of proteins called the structural and non-structural proteins are synthesised and then assembled. The capsid protein coat and S-strands are synthesised at this stage.

7. Virion Assembly

Once the protein components of the virus and the RNA strands are built, the process of assembly of these components is done to form a new virus particle.

8. Release

After the virion assembly, the fully matured viruses are prepared to leave the cells to mark the end of the process of replication.

These newly manufactured viruses leave the cell abruptly or by the process of budding away from the cell surface membrane. In this abrupt process the virus destroys the cellular structure which causes cellular breakdown and thereby organ malfunction and eventually organ failure.

How COVID-19 damages the lungs and causes respiratory diseases?

Now that you learn the general process of how a virus enters, reproduces and then damages an organ, here is now the process of how the novel coronavirus COVID-19 reproduces and damages the organs in the respiratory system.

  1. The virus enters the body via the respiratory route. The droplets containing virus particles lodge in the nasal mucosa.

    If the immunity is strong, the virus is destroyed and eliminated within this first layer of immunity. If the immunity is weak, the virus penetrates through the mucous membrane and enters into contact with the target organ cell.

  2. The virus attaches to the lung cells (it attaches to the wall of the type II pneumocytes by its spike proteins called the S-spike to the receptor called the ACE-2).

  3. The next immunity barrier is activated and viral entry and replication is impeded.

    At this stage mild symptoms are experienced as a results of immune response. If the immune system is strong enough and adapts quickly to overcome the virus, symptoms subside after a few days. If the immunity is not strong enough then this proceeds to the next stage.

  4. The virus replication starts within the lung cells and lungs cells start to be damaged. The immune response is overwhelmed and as a results more severe symptoms like fever, tiredness etc. are experienced.

  5. The virus wins over the localized immune response and starts spreading into the rest of the body. Symptoms like fever gradually increase to a high grade and symptoms worsen.

  6. Spread of the virus is more prevalent in the alveoli of the lungs where the virus gains entry via respiratory route. Shortness of breath starts at this time.

  7. With the infection of alveoli, an intense immune reaction ensues (called a cytokine storm), leading to Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). The immune system recruits an army of immune cells to fight with the infection, resulting in collateral damage to pneumocytes (lung cells), thrombosis of blood vessels and the damage of the lung tissues, eventually leading to poor oxygenation to lungs and suffocation.

  8. The fluid starts to accumulate in the lungs due to edema induced by chemical substances released by immune cells resulting in a severe shortness of breath which then requires ventilatory support.

  9. If adequate treatment is not administered, it could lead to death. 

Immune system: the only real guard against COVID-19

A healthy immune system can eliminate the virus at any step of the chain of infection whereas a weaker one fails to do so. The body tries to generate an intense immune reaction in order to fight with the infection and thus only a robust immune system can do that.

The virus is seen to also spread into other organs (not just the lungs) and produce organ damage but there are no casualties reported so far in such scenarios.

What can we offer you in Heal Within™

Heal Within™ is primarily a chronic disease treatment & prevention centre, based on an Integrated & Holistic treatment protocol. Our focus and relentless pursuit is to help chronic disease patients achieve these Three Primary Objectives.

  • Objective 1: Holistic Healing
  • Objective 2: Optimal Immunity & Disease-Occurence/Recurrence Prevention
  • Objective 3: Long-term Wellbeing

To learn the details of the what & why of these end-objectives, and understand why it is crucial that you establish this in your mind first prior to starting any healthcare treatment or prevention program, please go to Lesson 1 – First, Establish Your End-Objectives (if you not already done so).

We use an advanced Integrated & Holistic Treatment approach, by which we diagnose the root causes to the patient’s diseases by specialised tests in all 10 Pillars of Health, and then treat those specific root causes by specialised therapies that induce holistic healing and not just suppress symptoms as done in main-stream medical treatments.

By this protocol, we have consistently helped numerous patients with all forms of diseases (right from Cancer, Heart disease, Stroke, Kidney disease, etc. to High blood pressure, diabetes, skin diseases, auto-immune diseases, infertility & other women issues, obesity etc.;) achieve these Three Primary Objectives.

If you have any chronic disease and not getting the desired positive results from your present treatment, or if you want to optimise your health to prevent occurrences of any chronic disease, or if you want to optimise your immunity for optimal prevention against COVID-19, then just send us an enquiry or come visit our centre and see how we can help you achieve the Three Primary Objectives.

FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES
FOR DISEASE & TREATMENT

Dr Lee's Foundational Principles for understanding
how disease happens, and how to treat any disease.

Dr Lee's Foundational Principles for understanding how disease happens, and how to treat any disease.

PRINCIPLES FOR DISEASE

DISEASE PRINCIPLE 1

An abnormal condition in any one or more of the major organs is the cause to all disease symptoms, aches, pains, & lowered vitality.
(i.e. All disease symptoms, aches, pains, & lowered vitality, are a consequential effect of any one or more of the major organs being in an unhealthy condition.)

When all the major organs in an individual are in a healthy condition, the entire body system works well and one feels totally healthy and has no symptoms – no aches, no pains, and has vitality.

And on the other hand, when any one or more of the internal major organs transforms from a healthy condition to an unhealthy condition, it directly results into one experiencing symptoms – aches, pains, & lowered vitality.

The various unhealthy conditions that the major organs can have are: mucus accumulation, acidosis, disbiosys, infection, inflammation, fat saturation, crystallisation (stones), plaque formation & accumulation, blood clots, fibrosis, cirrhosis, cancer, degeneration, rupture/trauma, and failure. When a major organ has any one or more of these unhealthy conditions, it directly results in symptoms – aches, pains & lowered vitality.

The following graphic illustrates this principle:

Cause
Unhealthy Major Organs

One or more major organ transformed into an unhealthy condition.

Effect
Disease Symptoms

The individual experiences disease symptoms - i.e. aches, pains & lowered vitality.

Examples:

  • Gut disbiosys/acidosis is a unhealthy condition in the gut, which results in symptoms of gastric stomach pain, acid reflux, bloating, indigestion, IBS, etc.
  • Fatty liver is an unhealthy condition in the liver, which results in symptoms of abdominal pain, swollen abdomen and legs, tiredness, mental confusion, etc.
  • Heart atherosclerosis is an unhealthy condition in the heart in which plaque accumulates and blocks the heart arteries, which results in symptoms of chest pain, breathlessness, tiredness, etc.
  • Bronchitis is an unhealthy condition in the lungs, which results in symptoms of cough with phlegm, breathlessness, tiredness, chest discomfort etc.

DISEASE PRINCIPLE 2

An abnormal state in one or more of the 10 Pillars of Health*, is the Root Cause to all unhealthy conditions in major organs.
(i.e. all unhealthy conditions in major organs are a consequential effect of an abnormal state in any one or more of the 10 Pillars of Health*.)

The major organs do to change to an unhealthy condition magically; something else abnormal needs to happen in the body first, which then causes the major organs to change into an abnormal condition. Those abnormalities that happen first are within a set of ten foundational factors that Dr Lee calls 10 Pillars of Health

Dr Lee calls these factors 10 Pillars of Health because these are the ten foundational factors that govern the condition & function of all major organs, and thereby the foundational factors that govern the overall health of the individual.

Here are the 10 Pillars of Health:

  • 1
    Gut health, Nutrition, Diet
  • 2
    Toxicity & Environment
  • 3
    Blood & Lymph Circulation
  • 4
    Brain & Nerve Regulation
  • 5
    Hormone Levels
  • 6
    Base-cell Levels
  • 7
    Mitochondrial Energy
  • 8
    Genetics & Epigenetic
  • 9
    Mental & Emotional Status
  • 10
    Physical Activity & Lifestyle

When any one or more of these 10 Pillars of Health* are in an abnormal state, it directly results in abnormal conditions & thereby abnormal functions in one or more major organs, and then consequentially results in disease symptoms – aches, pains & lowered vitality.

Specifically that means: The root causes to abnormal conditions & abnormal functions in all major organs, is any one or more of these: (1) Bad food diet, lack of essential nutrition, bad gut environment (2) Too much internal toxicity, & highly toxic external environment; (3) Poor blood & lymph circulation and oxygenation; (4) Abnormal brain & nerve regulation; (5) Hormonal imbalances; (6) Low base-cell* levels; (7) Abnormal mitochondrial function; (8) Abnormal genetics & epigenetics; (9) Stressed state of mind & emotions; (10) Poor physical activity & lifestyle. When you have any one or more of these 10 Pillars in an abnormal state per described here, the natural consequence is good health.

The following graphic illustrates this principle:

 

10 Pillars of Health in an Abnormal State
Root Cause
10 Pillars of Health Abnormal

Any one or more of the 10 Pillars of Health changed to an abnormal state.

Cause
Unhealthy Major Organs

One or more major organ transformed into an unhealthy condition.

Effect
Disease Symptoms

The individual experiences disease symptoms - aches, pains & lowered vitality.

For example, when any one or more of the 10 Pillars are in an abnormal state, it results in:

  • Unhealthy Gut condition of disbiosys/acidosis, and thereby results in symptoms of gastric stomach pain, acid reflux, bloating, indigestion, IBS, etc.
  • Unhealthy Liver condition of fatty liver, and thereby results in symptoms of abdominal pain, swollen abdomen and legs, tiredness, mental confusion, etc.
  • Unhealthy Heart condition of atherosclerosis, and thereby results in symptoms of chest pain, breathlessness, tiredness, etc.
  • Unhealthy Lung condition of bronchitis, and thereby results in symptoms of cough with phlegm, breathlessness, tiredness, chest discomfort etc.

PRINCIPLES FOR DISEASE TREATMENT

TREATMENT PRINCIPLE 1

Normalising the condition in all major organs, results in resolving all symptoms, aches, pains & lowered vitality.
(i.e. Normal health & vitality is a consequential effect of all major organs being restored to their healthy condition.)

 

As explained above under ‘Principles for Disease’, when any one or more of the major organs transforms from a healthy to an unhealthy condition, it directly results in symptoms – aches, pains, & lowered vitality.

And on the other hand, when all the major organs in an individual are in a healthy condition, the entire body system works well and one feels totally healthy and has no symptoms – no aches, no pains, & vitality.

Therefore, when all major organs are normalised, i.e. restored from an unhealthy to their healthy condition, it results in resolving all symptoms – aches, pains & lowered vitality, and thereby results in the individual experiencing good health & vitality.

The following graphic illustrates this principle:

Cause
Major Organs Healthy

The condition of all major organs restored to their healthy condition.

Effect
Disease Symptoms Resolved

The individual experiences good health - no aches, no pains & vitality.

Examples:

  • When the Gut is normalised from disbiosys/acidosis, i.e. restored from an unhealthy disbiosys/acidosis condition to its healthy condition, it results in resolving symptoms of gastric stomach pain, acid reflux, bloating, indigestion, IBS, etc.
  • When the Liver is normalised from fatty-liver, i.e. restored from an unhealthy fatty-liver condition to its healthy condition, it results in resolving symptoms of abdominal pain, swollen abdomen and legs, tiredness, mental confusion, etc.
  • When the Heart is normalised from atherosclerosis, i.e. restored from an unhealthy atherosclerosis condition to its normal condition, it results in resolving symptoms of chest pain, breathlessness, tiredness, etc.
  • When the Lungs are normalised from bronchitis, i.e. restored from an unhealthy bronchitis condition to its healthy condition, it results in resolving symptoms of cough with phlegm, breathlessness, tiredness, chest discomfort etc.

TREATMENT PRINCIPLE 2

Normalising all 10 Pillars of Health*, results in restoring all major organs to their healthy condition.
(i.e. normal conditions in all major organs is a consequential effect of normal states in all the 10 Pillars of Health*.)

As explained above under ‘Principles for Disease’, when any one or more of the 10 Pillars of Health transforms from its normal state to an abnormal state, it directly results in a transformation of one or more major organs from their healthy condition to an unhealthy condition.

And on the other hand, when all the 10 Pillars of Health are normalised, it directly results into a restoration of all major organs from any unhealthy condition to their healthy condition.

Therefore, when all 10 Pillars of health are normalised, i.e. restored from an abnormal state to a normal state, it directly results in normalising all major organs, i.e. restoring all major organs from an unhealthy condition to their healthy condition, and consequentially results in resolving all symptoms – no aches, no pains & restored vitality, and thereby results in the individual experiencing good health & vitality.

Normalising all 10 Pillars of Health specifically means thus: (1) Wholesome food diet, full spectrum nutrition, clean & healthy gut; (2) Minimal internal toxicity, non-toxic external environment; (3) Normal blood & lymph circulation and oxygenation; (4) Normal brain & nerve regulation; (5) Normal hormonal levels; (6) Healthy base-cell* levels; (7) Normal mitochondrial function; (8) Normal genetics & epigenetics; (9) Normal state of mind & emotions; (10) Normal physical activity & lifestyle. When you have all 10 Pillars normalised per this manner, the natural consequence is good health.

The following graphics illustrate this principle:

10 Pillars of Health in their Normal State
Root Cause
10 Pillars of Health Normal

All the 10 Pillars of Health restored to their normal state.

Cause
Major Organs Healthy

The condition of all major organs restored to their healthy condition.

Effect
Disease Symptoms Resolved

The individual experiences good health - no aches, no pains & vitality.

For example, when all 10 Pillars are normalised, it results in:

  • Normalising the Gut from disbiosys/acidosis, i.e. the gut is restored from an unhealthy disbiosys/acidosis condition to its healthy condition, and thereby consequentially results in resolving symptoms of gastric stomach pain, acid reflux, bloating, indigestion, IBS, etc.
  • Normalising the Liver from fatty-liver, i.e. the liver is restored from an unhealthy fatty-liver condition to its healthy condition, and thereby consequentially results in resolving symptoms of abdominal pain, swollen abdomen and legs, tiredness or mental confusion, etc.
  • Normalising the Heart from atherosclerosis, i.e. the heart is restored from an unhealthy atherosclerosis condition to its normal condition, and thereby consequentially results in resolving symptoms of chest pain, breathlessness, tiredness, etc.
  • Normalising the Lungs from bronchitis, i.e. the lungs are restored from an unhealthy bronchitis condition to its healthy condition, and thereby consequentially results in resolving symptoms of cough with phlegm, breathlessness, tiredness, chest discomfort etc.

PRINCIPLE FOR RECURRENCE PREVENTION
AND LONG-TERM OPTIMAL HEALTH

Optimising all 10 Pillars of Health*, results in optimising the condition & function in all major organs, and thereby results in preventing recurrence of past diseases and occurrences of any other chronic disease in the future, ultimately resulting in long-term optimal health & high quality of life.

As explained above, good health is natural effect of normal states in all the 10 Pillars of Health*; and, disease is a natural effect of an abnormal state in any one or more of these 10 Pillars of Health*.

And now to logically add to that principle, optimal health & long-term wellbeing (no recurrences of past diseases, and no occurrences of other diseases) is a natural effect of improving all 10 Pillars of Health* to their optimal state.

When all the 10 Pillars of Health* are optimised, then all major organs further improve to their optimal condition & function, and thereby recurrences of past diseases and occurrences of other diseases are prevented, and one can experience on-going optimal health, long-term wellbeing, and a high quality of life.

The following graphics illustrate this principle:

10 Pillars of Health in their Optimal State
Root Cause
10 Pillars of Health Optimal

All the 10 Pillars of Health improved to their optimal state.

Cause
Major Organs Optimal

The condition of all major organs improved to their optimal condition.

Effect
Disease Recurrence Prevented

The individual experiences optimal health, wellbeing, high quality life.

For example, when all 10 Pillars are optimised, it results in:

  • Optimising the condition in the Gut, and thereby consequentially results in preventing recurrences of any unhealthy condition in the Gut and thereby preventing recurrences of symptoms of gastric stomach pain, acid reflux, bloating, indigestion, IBS, etc.
  • Optimising the condition in the Liver, and thereby consequentially results in preventing recurrences of any unhealthy condition in the Liver and thereby preventing recurrences of symptoms of abdominal pain, swollen abdomen and legs, tiredness or mental confusion, etc.
  • Optimising the condition in the Heart, and thereby consequentially results in preventing preventing recurrences of any unhealthy condition in the Heart and thereby preventing recurrences of symptoms of chest pain, breathlessness, tiredness, etc.
  • Optimising the condition in the Lungs, and thereby consequentially results in preventing recurrences of any unhealthy condition in the Lungs and thereby preventing recurrences of  symptoms of cough with phlegm, breathlessness, tiredness, chest discomfort etc.

CONCLUSIVE PRINCIPLES

CONCLUSIVE PRINCIPLE 1

Therefore, diseases can effectively treated only by doing these three necessary steps:
  1. Normalise the condition of the diseased major organs, and thereby alleviate symptoms – aches, pains, & lowered vitality.
  1. Normalise the state in all 10 Pillars of Health*, and thereby treat the Root Causes to all unhealthy conditions in all major organs; and thereby totally resolve all symptoms – aches, pains & discomforts.
  1. Optimise all 10 Pillars of Health*, and thereby optimise the condition & function in all major organs, and thereby prevent recurrences of all past unhealthy conditions in major organs, and prevent potential  occurrences of any other unhealthy conditions, and thereby experience on-going optimal health, long-term wellbeing, and a high quality of life.
Doing the above 3 necessary steps is the only way to achieve holistic healing, recurrence prevention, and long-term wellbeing.

CONCLUSIVE PRINCIPLE 2

Therefore, Integrated & Holistic Treatment is the only way toward holistic healing, recurrence prevention, and long-term wellbeing.

As established above under ‘Conclusive Principle’, effective treatment of any disease can only be achieved by these 3 necessary steps: (1) Normalise the condition of the diseased major organ, (2) Normalise all 10 Pillars of Health*, and thereby treat the Root Causes to any unhealthy condition in all major organs, and (3) Optimise the condition & function in all major organs by optimising all the 10 Pillars of Health*.

No one therapy or treatment modality can help complete all three necessary steps; an integration (combination) of various therapies is necessary for this.

Therefore Integrated & Holistic Treatment is necessary, and is the only way toward effective treatment of any disease.

The following graphics illustrate this principle:

Integrated & Holistic Treatment
is the strategic integration of multiple therapies
for achieving holistic healing, recurrence prevention
and long-term optimal-health & well-being.

10 PILLARS OF HEALTH

10 PILLARS
OF HEALTH

Dr Lee calls them 10 Pillars because
these are the foundations for good health.

Dr Lee calls them 10 Pillars because these are the foundations for good health.

FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLE FOR HEALTH & DISEASE:

Good health is natural effect of a normal state in all the 10 Pillars of Health; and, Disease is a natural effect of an abnormal state in any one or more of these 10 Pillars of Health.

  • 1
    Gut health, Nutrition, Diet
  • 2
    Toxicity & Environment
  • 3
    Blood & Lymph Circulation
  • 4
    Brain & Nerve Regulation
  • 5

10 Pillars in an Abnormal State means thus:

(1) Bad food diet, lack of essential nutrition, bad gut environment (2) Too much internal toxicity, & highly toxic external environment; (3) Poor blood & lymph circulation and oxygenation; (4) Abnormal brain & nerve regulation; (5) Hormonal imbalances; (6) Low base-cell* levels; (7) Abnormal mitochondrial function; (8) Abnormal genetics & epigenetics; (9) Stressed state of mind & emotions; (10) Poor physical activity & lifestyle. When you have any one or more of these 10 Pillars in an abnormal state per described here, the natural consequence is good health.

10 Pillars in a Normal State means thus:

(1) Wholesome food diet, full spectrum nutrition, clean & healthy gut; (2) Minimal internal toxicity, non-toxic external environment; (3) Normal blood & lymph circulation and oxygenation; (4) Normal brain & nerve regulation; (5) Normal hormonal levels; (6) Healthy base-cell* levels; (7) Normal mitochondrial function; (8) Normal genetics & epigenetics; (9) Normal state of mind & emotions; (10) Normal physical activity & lifestyle. When you have all 10 Pillars normalised per this manner, the natural consequence is good health.

TREATMENT EXECUTION PROCESS

PHASE 3: MAINTENANCE

Integrated & Holistic Wellness

Objectives for Maintenance:

The last thing a patient would want after regaining his health (after his/her treatment in Heal Within®), is to experience another chronic disease in the future; which would certainly be the case if the patient goes back to the same lifestyle patterns that caused abnormalities in their 10 Pillars of Health and thereby resulted in heart disease.

Therefore, the objectives of this Phase 3 Maintenance are:

  1. Help the patient maintain a healthy lifestyle, by helping them adhere to a healthy lifestyle plan which includes – wholesome food, full spectrum nutrition, cardiovascular & muscular-skelatal development exercise, periodic detoxification, and rest.

     

  2. Periodically monitor the patient’s condition to make sure he/she is immune against any chronic disease.

So to cumulatively help the patient experience optimal health & wellbeing and a long-term high quality of life.

Contents in Maintenance:

1: Healthy lifestyle plan

Here, doctor tailors a healthy lifestyle plan for the patient to adhere to. This plan comprises of the following:

  1. Wholesome food
  2. List of foods to eat, and which to avoid
  3. Full spectrum nutrition
  4. Probiotics
  5. Bio-id hormones (if needed)
  1. Cardiovascular exercise
  2. Mucular-skelatal development exercise
  3. Periodic detoxification
  4. Mediation & mind-emotional control
  5. Rest

All the necessary products (nutrition, probiotics, etc.) are provided, and a dedicated nurse is assigned to the patient who can be reached by the patient for any needed support.

2: Periodic medical tests for on-going monitoring

The patient’s health condition is monitored on-going at periodic intervals to make sure that the patients is continuously immune against any potential chronic disease; thereby helping the patient experience optimal health & wellbeing and a long-term high quality of life. Following are the tests used for on-going monitoring:

  1. Live Blood Analysis
  2. Dry Blood Analysis
  3. 12 Internal Organs Scan by Digital Meridian Analysis
  4. Heart Variability Test
  5. ECG Test
  1. Body Composition Analysis
  2. Urine Dipstick
  3. Saliva Test
  4. Free Radical Urine Test
  5. Dental Evaluation & Oral Examination

TREATMENT EXECUTION PROCESS

PHASE 2: TREATMENT

Integrated & Holistic Treatment

Objectives for Treatment:

While the purpose of treatment could seem obvious, it is necessary to recall the objective purpose of the treatment, which are the 3 Primary Objectives (already written & explained earlier in the web-page). To help you recall, following are the 3 Primary Objectives of the treatment in Heal Within®:

  1. Clear plaque from heart blood vessels, and open up new capillaries in the heart, and thereby normalise blood supply to the heart.
  1. Treat the Root Causes to plaque formation & accumulation by Normalising all 10 Pillars of Health*, so to then prevent plaque re-formation & re-accumulation in heart blood vessels, and thereby prevent heart disease recurrence.
  1. Optimise the condition & function of all major organs by optimising all 10 Pillars of Health*, so to prevent occurrence of any other chronic disease in the future, and thereby experience on-going optimal health, long-term wellbeing, and a high quality of life.

Doing the above 3 necessary steps is the only way to achieve holistic healing, recurrence prevention, and long-term wellbeing.

Contents in Treatment:

The contents in treatment is basically the therapies that the designated doctor tailors & plans for the patient at the end of ‘Phase 1 – Diagnosis. Notwithstanding, the patient’s progress is continuously monitored during the execution of the treatment plan, and if necessary doctor adjusts the treatment plan based on the patient’s progress.

Following are the list of therapies administered during the treatment execution, for to achieve each of the 3 Primary Objectives.

For Objective 1: Clear plaque & open new capillaries

The following therapies are administered to clear plaque from heart blood vessels, and open up new capillaries in the heart, so to cumulatively normalise blood supply to the heart, and thereby resolve symptoms of angina (chest pain), breathlessness, etc.

  1. Chelation therapy

  3.  Far-infra-red therapy
  4. Hydrogen therapy
  5. Green vegetable blend therapy
  1. EECP Therapy
  2. Hyperbaric therapy
  3. Autohemo therapy
  4. IV Nutrition therapy
  5. Herbal therapy
For Objective 2: Treat root causes to plaque formation

TREATMENT EXECUTION PROCESS

PHASE 1: DIAGNOSIS

Integrated & Holistic Diagnosis

Objectives for Diagnosis:

While the 3 Primary Objectives of the treatment are standard for every patient, the treatment protocol & plan is not (the treatment is not a one size fits all); it needs to be tailored to the patient’s individual body condition. In Heal Within®, each patient’s condition is looked at uniquely and the treatment is tailored to suit each patient’s individual body condition.

Therefore, in order to tailor the treatment protocol & plan for the patient, it is necessary for doctor to determine the following:

  1. The patient’s medical history:
 
Genesis & progression of diseases, medications  & other treatments used in the past, allergies, diet patterns, sleep habits, exercise habits, supplements used, etc.

  2. Vitality Factors:
 The patient’s current levels in energy, body & limb mobility, digestion & bowel movement, mental & emotional state, sleep, sexual function, skin complexion, and immunity.

  3. Symptoms: Symptoms are primarily aches, pains & discomforts experienced by the patient, and external-physical-body changes seen in the patient.

  4. Abnormal conditions in 12 major organs: Specific abnormal conditions (if any) in the stomach, spleen, gut, colon, liver, gallbladder, heart, lungs, brain, nerves, blood vessels & blood, lymph vessels & lymph, bones & joints, and muscles.

  5. Root causes to abnormal conditions in 12 major organs: Abnormal states in the 10 Pillars of Health* – [1] Gut health, Nutrition, Diet; [2] Toxicity & Environment; [3] Blood & Lymph Circulation; [4] Brain & Nerve Regulation; [5] Hormone Levels; [6] Base-cell* Levels; [7] Mitochondrial Energy; [8] Genetics & Epigenetic; [9] Mental & Emotional Status; and [10] Physical Activity & Lifestyle.
    (abnormal states in the 10 Pillars of the Health are the root causes to all abnormal conditions in organs and diseases thereof.)

Diagnosis Procedure:

(what happens in the centre during phase 1 diagnosis.)

To determine the above 5 things, the designated medical doctor gather a complete detailed record of the patient’s medical history, and then conducts a series of specialised medical tests. Then, based on the results of the medical history analysis & medical tests, he tailors the most effective treatment plan.

Part 1: Medical data gathering:

Here, the dedicated nurse conducts a very comprehensive verbal introspection with the patient to record the patient’s medical history, vitality factors, and symptoms.

Part 2: Diagnostic tests:

Preliminary tests:

  1. Live Blood Analysis
  2. Dry Blood Analysis
  3. 12 Internal Organs Scan by Digital Meridian Analysis
  4. Body Composition Analysis
  5. Pulse Rate Analysis
  6. Urine Dipstick
  7. Saliva Test
  8. Free Radical Urine Test
  9. Dental Evaluation & Oral Examination

Advanced tests: 

  1. Heart Variability Test
  2. Comprehensive Blood Chemistry Test
  3. Toxicology Test
  4. Nutritional Status Test
  5. Hormonal Profile Test
  6. Stool Test
  7. ECG Test
  8. Ultrasound Test
Part 3: Detailed analysis of test results:
In this part, the doctor will analyse all patient’s medical history, vitality factors, symptoms gathered in part 1 together with all results of tests done in part 2.
Part 4: Treatment plan tailoring & explanation:
In this part, the doctor consults the patient, explains the patient’s condition per his analysis done in part 3, and then tailors the treatment plan.
Part 5: Treatment plan execution schedule:

In this last part, the dedicated nurse helps schedule the treatment execution (dates/time on which each therapy of the treatment needs to be administered) and coaches the patient on the details.

The dedicated nurse is available to the patient for questions & doubts anytime during the entire treatment duration.
