(openPR) - Chemotherapy without almost any side effects using insulin potentiated therapy (IPT)
Relief for cancer patients: Insulin Potentiated Therapy makes it possible to have more gentle chemotherapy without almost any side effects. By combining chemotherapeutics with insulin, only one-fifth of the debilitating drugs are necessary.
"Chemotherapy is the routine for treating cancer in the orthodox school of medicine," says Dr. med. Peter wolf. "But chemotherapy has three fundamental disadvantages: Chemotherapeutics do not distinguish between the 'good' and the 'bad' cells, i.e. healthy cells are damaged as well. It cannot be established before the treatment begins whether the cancer cells will even respond to therapy. Chemotherapeutics only do damage to cells that are in the dividing stage. Cancer cells that are inactive at the time of treatment are not affected. These cells become immune to the poisonous drugs and often multiply especially agressively," Dr. Wolf explains. These disadvantages can be kept to a minimum by using insulin potentiated therapy.
"One could say that IPT plays tricks on the cells," says the specialist physician from Hannover. Dr. Peter Wolf has been running his clinic for complementary oncology for over 20 years. "Insulin potentiated therapy makes use of natural mechanisms." Insulin, one of the body's own hormones, regulates the transport of nutrients from the blood into the cells. It docks onto a cell and opens it so that the nutrients can enter. One of the differences between normal cells and cancer cells is that the latter have considerably more insulin receptors - i.e. docking points for insulin - than normal cells. This means that cancer cells are several times more voracious than normal cells. When nutrients are introduced into the organism they go mainly to the cancer cells, which gobble them up. "Cancer cells thus keep the body more and more from getting the nutrients it needs, which leads to the patient becoming weaker and more feeble," says Dr. Wolf.
But the voracious appetite of the cancer cells can be put to good use. In practice, insulin potentiated therapy consists of the following: "On the day of treatment the patient must have an empty stomach, i.e. with no nutrients in the blood," Dr. Wolf emphasizes the important starting point. Then insulin is administered intravenously. This lowers the amount of sugar in the blood and the insulin goes mainly to the cancer cells. After about half an hour the chemotherapeutics are administered, which are then devoured greedily by the starved cancer cells. Afterwards glucose is administered in order to raise the blood sugar level again.
Because of this the drugs are not spread throughout the entire body as with traditional chemotherapy, but rather they are much more targeted on the cancer cells due to the effect of the insulin. "Thus the dosage of the chemotherapeutics can be considerably reduced, causing less damage or none at all to the organism; also, there are considerably fewer side effects or none at all," Dr. Wolf explains.
The treatment takes from two to three hours, usually with one treatment every four to seven days. Depending on how severe the disease is, the treatments are repeated 8 to 15 times. In rare cases a patient may experience nausea or vomiting; medication can be administered prior to treatment to avoid this.
Most health insurers do not pay for the costs of this treatment.
Insulin potentiated therapy was first used in the 1920s in Mexico. The person who discovered this new kind of therapy was Dr. med. D. Garcia. His experience became the foundation for an ever more sophisticated insulin therapy. As far back as the 1940s Dr. Garcia started to treat cancer with IPT – with notable success.
IPT can also be used to help treat various other diseases, since not only chemotherapeutics but also other drugs, vitamins, etc. can be better absorbed in combination with insulin. Thus IPT has proven successful in treating a number of diseases including:
infectious disease, borreliosis, chronic inflammation, rheumatic disease, auto-immune disease, multiple sclerosis and bronchial asthma
The outpatient clinic opened in 1983 in Oskar-Winter-Str. 9 in Hanover. The concept of holistic medicine provided the model for the office: a salutary synthesis of traditional medicine with naturopathic treatments and homeopathy. The whole person has formed the focus of Dr. Peter Wolf medical activity since that time.
Homeopathy, psychotherapy, acupuncture and biological cancer treatment are all therapies which make body, mind and spirit the focal point of the conflict between health and illness. Four years ago, the department of Biological Cancer Treatment was completed by two modern fever therapy (hyperthermia) treatments: whole body hyperthermia and locoregional hyperthermia.
Our entire program of treatments is available in our premises since 2003.
