Preparing the Body for Probiotic Success Against Disease

This article could be entitled, "Bacterial Wars: Preparing the Battlefield for Probiotic Success." It is now understood that the biggest part of our immunity to invading bacteria of all types is provided by these huge armies of friendly bacteria that live harmonious within each of us, unless these friendly bacteria have been destroyed by antibiotics. The challenge now is that bad bacteria have taken over the body and have entrenched themselves firmly. The war within needs a multi pronged strategy to displace and destroy the bad bacteria, and reintroduce the right types of friendly bacteria that can permanently clean up the invaders and repopulate in healthy numbers.

New types of friendly bacteria are being discovered all of the time, some that serve humanity as soldiers, seeking out and destroying invading pathogenic bacteria. Enlisting this army of probiotics requires a strategic plan to win the battle against foreign invading microbes of all types. 

Not every illness is directly caused by an absence of friendly bacteria, however mounting evidence is showing that restoring normal bacterial populations can indeed go a long way towards restoring health, and as advancements are made in finding and introducing new probiotic strains to the body it is expected that they will prove to be able to cure even the worst illnesses.

The planet Earth is a much smaller place than it used to be, with people being able to easily travel to what used to be thought of as remote countries. Infectious disease doctors, who were trained to never consider certain infections unless a person had been physically to other less developed countries are being faced with exotic microbes rarely seen in the United States. The reality is that in our diverse society and with the constant stream of travelers from every part of the world, our population is seeing an ever increasing range of parasites, bacteria, mycoplasma, and viruses crossing our borders. 


I my last few articles I discussed how in a healthy human body bacteria outnumber the cells in the body, by 10:1 and represent over 1100 different species of bacteria. The range of healing potential of reintroducing new generations of friendly bacteria, whose populations were decimated by antibiotic use, medications, poor dietary choices, and electro-polution. I also discussed that once these friendly, probiotic (Probiotic= Promoting Life) type bacteria have been destroyed in the body, that diseases of all manner can occur, from chronic Lyme Disease and other chronic bacterial infections, to heart diseases, to diabetes, and virtually every other plague of mankind. Restoring the populations of friendly bacteria is being shown to be beneficial, but in a well-rounded treatment plan, they can be the difference in improving overall health, and yes in the near future even be curative to many of the worst illnesses known to man. 

In states of illness of any kind, it is understood that many of the friendly bacterial populations have been decimated. Replacing the good guys are all many of bad bacteria, parasites, and mycoplasma, and viruses, all of which have damage the tissues of the mucosal membranes, from the mouth and sinuses to the anus. Displacing all the bad guys is going to require

  1. Strategic natural pathogenic bacterial specific treatments to bring down the populations of the bad bacteria,
  2. A good plan to repair the damaged tissues so that your probiotics can recolonize,
  3. Send in your army of targeted friendly bacteria (the specific bacterial strains needed)
  4. Provide high quality food and prebiotic-flora food to feed your army.

Preparing for war! 

Two to four weeks prior to sending in your "pro-life," probiotic bacterial army. You must create the optimum growing environment for your bacterial army for war!

Preparations of the Battlefield (your gut) 
Clear the battlefield of the invaders heavy artillery such as parasites and fungal infections. Parasites are monstrous in size when compared to the microscopic bacteria that make up your probiotic army. Sending your bacterial army into a battlefield full of parasites, fungi, and pathogenic bacteria is like arming your soldiers with pocket knives and sending them out to fight against armored tanks. Parasites eat much needed nutrients from the foods and vitamins we eat before it can be absorbed. Often all of your B-vitamins are gobbled up by parasites. B-vitamins are absolute necessary to run almost every biochemical process in the body, from regulating your stress responses, to making hormones, to regulating brain function, to making heme, cytochrome A, cytochrome P450, and our energy production pathways. Parasites secrete chemicals that cause the bad bacteria to grow out of control. 


Parasites, such as Strongyloides can sometimes reach numbers so large that it is classified as hyperinfection. Strongyloides are about the size of grains of rice, and embed themselves in what is called the intestinal crypts of the lining of the small intestines. They clog up the absorptive lining of the small intestines gobbling up and blocking the absorption of all your nutrients. This is a fairly common type of human parasite seen in people with various chronic illnesses. As with all mammals, parasites of various types can be assumed to be present in anyone who has not been treated. 

If you have never been treated for parasites then you can and should assume, in this day and age, that you have parasites. There are many readily available anti-parasitic herbs on the market, such as Artemesia (Wormwood), Black Walnut extract, and clove. There are also combinations of herbs that work very well, such as Artemisiacom, Paracom, both from Energique Inc. ParaFree soft gels from Young Living Oils, Inc. are debatably the most effective against parasites, as well as mold/fungal and bad bacterial issues. The therapeutic-grade oils in ParaFree can immediately kill the bad guys on contact, while having a zero toxicity to healthy tissue. 

Fungal Mycotoxins: Chemical Warfare Against Your Body
The horrors of chemical warfare from mold and fungal overgrowth also need to be addressed before your bacterial army can even begin to fight the bad bacteria. 

Mold and fungi are the most deadly fighters in your body. They secrete toxins that will kill your bacterial army before they can fire a shot. 

The ParaFree soft gels from Young Living Essential Oils, Inc., contains many of the most effective anti-fungal essential oils, such as Melaleuca alternifoliaAcotea, and Thyme vulgarism oil.

•  Test and maintain your stomach’s ability to produce Hydrochloric Acid (HCl). Click the hyperlink to learn how to test your HCl at home for pennies. The stomach acid, HCl is the strongest acid in the world, and represents your first line of defense preventing bad bacteria, mold, and parasites from gaining access to your intestines. Drinking fluids while eating should be kept to a minimum to avoid diluting and weakening the stomach acid. If the stomach acid is weak then it cannot kill the microbes that hitch a ride into your body on the food you are eating.  Low stomach acid production (hypochlorhydria) is a serious problem that can be caused by eating GMO foods, processed foods, and medications, all of which are known to cause gastric inflammation leading to chronic bacterial infections. If you test yourself and find that you are not producing enough HCl, you need to take Betaine Hydrochloride, which is widely available from any health food store. A favorite supplement of mine for this is Hypo-D by NutriWest, Inc. Hypo-D contains the Betaine HCl with other synergistic ingredients, such as Ox Bile, which is especially needed in people who have liver/gallbladder trouble or have had their gallbladder taken out. Bile is a fluid produced by the liver and held in reserve in the sack that is your gallbladder. Bile is a fat emulsifier, meaning it breaks down the fats, from your food and from EFA's (Essential fatty acid supplements) like fish oil, flax oil, coconut oil..., into smaller, more usable pieces so that they can be used by your body. If you don't have a gallbladder, you are not breaking down the fats, which leads to promoting the populations of bad bacteria.

• Ideally you would get rid of a lot of the accumulated sludge from your liver, gallbladder, and intestines by doing organic, Gold-roasted coffee enemas every other day for at least one week before sending in your good bacteria. Research shows that most people have pounds of putrified matters stuck in their intestines even when they have daily bowel movements. Click here to see how easy these enemas are to do. I promise, if you have never done enemas, they sound worse than they really are to do.

• Eliminate the sources of toxins in your home. This would include cleaners, personal care products, laundry detergents and softeners, dishwasher pods, air fresheners, perfumes/colognes, basically anything that you wouldn't eat, you shouldn't use on your skin or breath into your body. All of these products can most often be returned to the store you purchased them from for a full refund if you tell them you are toxic and allergic to them. You are welcome to tell them Dr. Jernigan says you are allergic and toxic to this product. Replace them with the wide range of safer products now available, such as those sold by Seventh Generation, Inc.

Sending in your troops:
We already discussed how friendly bacteria greatly outnumber the cells making up the tissues of the healthy human body. These friendly bacteria that populate your body since you were born have taken on genetic markers identifying them as "self", meaning that your immune system, and your entire body sees these bacteria as just being you, just like your liver, and other tissues of your body are identified as self. The opposite of this would be seen in autoimmune disorders where the immune system seems to be attacking the tissues or cells in your body, thinking they are foreign invaders. 


Commercially-made probiotic supplements do not have these genetic markers identifying them as part of you. Although they may be of the same species as the friendly bacteria normally in your body, they have not been with you for your entire life like the friendly bacteria in your body.  

My Pet Peeve about Most Probiotic Supplements
One of my pet peeves about using probiotic supplements has always been that they never or rarely seem to recolonize the body. Research shows this to be true, as most probiotic bacteria cease to be found in the feces of the person within weeks of discontinuing the probiotic supplement. It is frustrating that indigenous people, who have never had antibiotics  or medications, and were raised on locally hunted and grown food, have up to 3000 different types of bacteria colonizing their body, largely protecting them from diseases of modern life. Also frustrating is that idea that a tick or mosquito can bite a person, transmitting a tiny number of bacteria, relatively speaking, and the body's health collapses as these few become many. So, people can take trillions and trillions of probiotic bacteria in capsules and liquids, yet they cannot recolonize like they were designed to do?

It is my theory, and something the doctors at the Hansa Center for Optimum Health are working on, that if the new probiotics can be imprinted with the patient's energetic imprint prior to consumption, and the tissues can be prepared for recolonization ahead of time, that the new probiotics can more successfully colonize the gut. 

A person might be tempted to simply take huge amounts of friendly bacteria, but too much of a good thing is also bad, and it will further upset the other populations that have been life-long residents of the body. The body likes a healthy balance of the 1100-3000 types of beneficial bacteria, not fistfuls of probiotic capsules equaling pounds and many trillions of the same type of bacteria over the course of taking them for months or years. 

Of course, taking probiotics, even if they are transient in the body, is better than not taking them. Definitely take them. I am just striving to help people see that there should be a better strategy to using probiotics. As this is now my fourth article on the topic, you can see that there are many considerations that can help win the battles and get your probiotics to colonize. What do you suppose would be the effect of swallowing capsules of Staph or Strep day after day? They would eventually colonize and cause massive dysfunction and disease in the body. I want the probiotics you take to be able to colonize and protect you from dysfunction and disease...not just be eliminated with each bowel movement!

There is more to do on this topic, so stay tuned. I will be discussing various types of probiotics and what each type does for your body.

Fighting Infections With Strategic Bacteria



Whether you are being ravaged by C. Diff bacteria, fighting antibiotic-resistant bacteria, or bed-ridden from Lyme disease, it is important to know how health can potentially be restored, and how health is maintained in spite of having potentially disease causing bacteria in your body. If you have not read my previous two articles on this topic you might want to read them as well. (Bacterial Wars, and Targeted Bacteria)


Bacterial wars within the human body have been ongoing since the beginning of time between your body's army of friendly bacteria called probiotics, and the myriad of invading bacteria that cause infectious diseases. The fact that humanity still exists is a testament to the fact that in a relatively healthy body our bacterial army has routinely won the battles against invading bacteria of all types. Researchers now know that every human on the planet has over a hundred species of potentially disease-causing bacteria living in them without causing disease, as long as the overall health of the host person is maintained. It is just one of the roles of our friendly population (army) of bacteria, to control or prevent these potentially bad bacteria from causing disease. 

A person might ask, "Why do we suffer so badly from invasions of Lyme bacteria, Clostridium, E. Coli, and Staph if the probiotic army of our body is so good at killing the bad bacteria?" In my previous two articles I discussed how depleted our army has gotten from the overuse of antibiotics, and other things that kill the very bacteria that sustain us on every level. 

Mainstream medicine's response to infections is to set off what is essentially a nuclear bomb inside the body, when they use powerful antibiotics which kill everything, your army and the invaders. With antibiotics, your life-sustaining bacterial collective and army is decimated, and your body is a wasteland of damaged tissues, mutated bacterial remnants, and altered biochemistry. Of course there will always be situations where chemical antibiotics must be used to save life and limb, however with a healthy body combined with a good beginning treatment strategy, no type of infection should reach the point where antibiotics are needed. 

Antibiotics in my mind should only be used as a last resort. Antibiotics have undoubtedly eased suffering and saved lives in the past, but the longterm downside of using these chemical nuclear bombs for the past hundred years is that most people are now born with only half of the types and numbers of friendly bacteria as they could and should have to help sustain a normal, healthy life and repel invading bacteria. 

Very few people have heard that the friendly bacteria in your body battle with the invading bacteria. If you read medical literature you will more often hear that you need to boost your immune system in order to defeat invading bacteria. This is not wrong, it is just not the complete answer, especially when considering the fact that some types of invading bacteria actually hitch a ride on, live inside, and essentially "farm" the immune system cells, called macrophages. These macrophages are immune cells that the body actually sent to kill them! Boosting the immune system in this case only helps increase the spread of the infection! When this happens you better have a strong friendly army of the right types of bacteria to help kill them. 

Battles are ongoing between your friendly bacterial army and the invading army. Each side produces antibiotic chemicals to use against each other. Each side suffers casualties with the survivors mutating in an effort to survive the other's chemical attacks and also to develop new types of antibiotic chemicals to use against the other side. 

As the battle continues for months and years, every trick and everything the bacteria have learned is passed on as genetic information to the next generation of bacteria, via packets of genetic information called plasmids or sometimes called replicons. It sounds like something out the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, "The Terminator." Each new generation of both the good and the bad bacteria are born carrying all the adaptations learned by its ancestors. Talk about super-soldiers!

Now consider the average probiotic supplement, of which there are many companies selling a range of friendly bacteria. These laboratory-grown bacteria grew up in complete isolation, with no challenges. They can be seen as green troops sent in to reinforce your battle savvy army. These probiotic bacteria don't know anything about your battlefield conditions (the tissue damage and altered pH and biochemistry of your body), they have not benefited from the lessons and tricks learned from years of battling it out with the invaders in your specific body, which is different than anyone else's body. Just like in real war, reinforcements are often needed, but to the seasoned soldiers, these new troops can't be expected to be that effective right off the bat. 

These new troops and even your seasoned troops can get help from a special type of virus in the body called bacteriophages, the bug-looking things in the picture on this article. There are so many bacteriophages on the earth that if they were the size of ladybugs, they would completely cover the planet and would be several miles deep! 

Bacteriophages can at times attach to the bad bacteria and infect them causing them to die or to jettison their plasmids (replicons), making the bacteria now much more vulnerable to the attack of your probiotic army. Unfortunately, little is known about how to get the bacteriophages to reliably help out in this way, although we suspect that as greater integrity and health is restored in the the tissues and systems of the body, bacteriophage activity increases. Since we cannot count on bacteriophages coming to the rescue, we need a better breed of enhanced probiotic soldiers. That is what the doctors at the Hansa Center for Optimum Health are working to develop.

While reinforcing with standard probiotics is better than not taking anything, I would want you to consider something. How long do you think you would need to take capsules of Salmonella, Staph, Borrelia, and so on, in an average American's already dysfunctional body? How long would it take before these bad bacteria would start taking over and overpopulating the body? Not long for certain! You would soon find yourself with an infectious disease as these bad guys overwhelm the few good guys. 

So why do we rarely see friendly bacteria taking over in people who have been consuming probiotic supplements and fermented foods for months and years? 

  • They are either already dead in the bottle, which many authorities claim is the case in most of the probiotic products on the market.
  • They are largely killed by the conditions of the battlefield. (the tissues and inhospitable environment in your body)
  • They are quickly killed by the bad bacteria. 
  • You are reinforcing your troops with the wrong types of friendly bacteria. You might be sending in "farmer" bacteria, instead of "predator/soldier" bacteria.
  • The probiotic product may be ultra-pasteurized in the last production step, killing all of the probiotic bacteria, as in fermented foods, and almost all yogurt products that are for sale in stores.

This is why many people find that they must continually take probiotics for months and years with often minimal effect. 

As you can see by now, it takes much more than swallowing a broad-spectrum probiotic supplement in order to achieve the potential, near-miraculous benefits of targeted and enhanced probiotic therapy. There needs to be a very comprehensive and strategic battle plan, tailored to the unique global problems in your body. 

I will continue this series and provide you with more information of things you need to know and strategies you and your doctor can use to combat virtually any illness. Many of these upcoming strategies can be done at home. Stay tuned for my next article, "Preparing the Battlefield.

Bacterial Wars: Using strategic friendly bacteria to target and kill bad bacteria and cure disease!


Mind-Blowing New Science to Heal You!

In a pristinely healthy person, one who escaped the medical system and enjoyed a more natural upbringing without antibiotics, and the chemicals and toxins of modern life, there are specific types of friendly bacteria that kill and control other types of invading bacteria and prevent them from overpopulating and causing diseases

Before you say, "Yeah, yeah, I know about probiotics already", let me assure you that you really don't know, because the reality is that there are over 1,100 species just in the intestines, and no one knows the full range of duties they perform for us. 

The best probiotic supplements we have only supply a pitiful number of types of bacteria.  If it were not for our modern diet, chlorinated/fluorinated water, toxic chemical use, antibiotic and medication use, and almost every other convenience of modern life, researchers know that we would have double, nearly 6,000 types of bacteria living harmoniously within our body, all helping us to stay healthy. So nobody really knows all of the beneficial roles each of the thousands of species of bacteria play in our body.

The modern world's chemical war on your body's healthy populations of bacteria, especially the indiscriminate or longterm use of antibiotics, has left us in a situation where the few bacteria that survive are usually mutated strains of bad bacteria which face little competition from the small populations of friendly bacteria and proliferate out of control, giving rise to pathogenic communities that can evade standard treatments. 

Most of the diseases of our modern society are the downstream effect of the destruction of the healthy microbiome, the symbiotic community of bacteria that outnumber by 10 times the number of cells in the body and make up the most critical aspect of maintaining a healthy human body. Another way of saying this, according to the National Institute of Health, (NIH) is that 90% of the cells in the healthy human body are non-human, meaning they are are microbial! So if the microbial community of your body makes up 90% of who you are, how important do you think it might be to stop killing them with broad-spectrum antibiotics, and the toxins from foods, personal care products, and environment? 

Restoring the diversity and populations of bacteria communities is the next frontier of medicine. Diversity of different species of bacteria is important, since each type of bacteria in the healthy body serves a different purpose. It is very much like our cities, which need farmers, garbage collectors, waste treatment workers, builders, and so on in order for everything to function smoothly.

One of the biggest problems with restoring the diversity is our long-term diet and lifestyle choices. 

Predators versus Invaders
It may come as a surprise to many that within the healthy human body there are predatory bacteria that seek out and kill other invading bacteria. The reality is that there are over 3000 different species of bacteria that live harmoniously in the healthy human body. These types of bacteria play a vital role in maintaining health by functioning like a protective army that works in alliance with our immune system to battle it out with invading bacteria and organisms

For several generations now, doctors have been taught that the human body is incapable of defending itself against invading bacteria, and needs antibiotics to kill them. The science is now in that antibiotics have contributed to the creation of most of the diseases that plague our society. Due to the fact that antibiotics kill your army of friendly "predator bacteria" while they are killing the invading bacteria, your body is left defenseless since your immune system cannot do the job of killing the now antibiotic-induced, mutated and now deadlier invader by itself. 

Questioning your doctor

Of course the first question I always hear is, "So what about all the good that antibiotics have done in the past?" The second question is, "What are we supposed to do with serious bacterial infections, such as  C. diff, and Lyme disease?" 

To answer the first question it must be understood that what antibiotics used to do, they are no longer doing, since we have overused them to the point that the bad bacteria are now resistant, or gain resistance often within 20 minutes of taking the first dose. Secondly, antibiotics are like an atomic bomb to the microbial communities that would have protected you and prevented even the horrible H. pylori, C. diff., and Lyme bacteria with it's co-infections, from ever causing you any problems.  People trusted their doctors, and were damaged by their lack of understanding of what would almost certainly happen if they used antibiotics. Even in people who never previously had antibiotics, their multi-generational dietary, hygiene, and lifestyle choices damaged their overall integrity and microbial community, predisposing them to chronic illness. 

To answer the second question of what we should do instead of antibiotics, is going to take another article, but I will answer this question in the near future. 

So, not only has your army been decimated by antibiotics, and the SAD diet (Standard American Diet), over-medication, chlorinated/fluorinated water, toxic personal care products, and more, but also the tissues and environment of your body that is necessary to colonize and grow back your friendly bacterial army have been damaged. 

Unfortunately, often the bad, invading bacteria are firmly intrenched from having no competition. It will take some serious preparation and time before the tide can be turned and your army can be restored. Almost all of this preparatory work can be done by yourself, without the help of a doctor. The nice thing is that once you get started you can almost always quickly notice the benefits as the way you feel improves.

It is time to prepare your body for war! In my next article I will give you a starting plan that you can implement immediately.

Restore Health to Virtually Any Illness Using Targeted Bacteria!



A person may have diabetes, asthma, bowel disease, mitochondrial diseases, dysautonomia, autism, cancer, MS, ALS, and virtually every other named illness from alterations in their body's symbiotic (friendly) bacterial populations caused by a myriad of different factors. The mass extinction of a wide range of many friendly bacterial populations in the body has led to the development of widespread chronic illnesses of the body and mind.

As shocking as it may seem, a one-time use of an antibiotic can set the stage for illness within weeks to years after using it. Of course, long-term antibiotics can set the stage for serious disease to set in months to years after the fact. Researchers have even correlated the development of chronic illnesses to whether or not a baby was born vaginally or via C-section, since the baby is inoculated with the mother's friendly bacteria as it is traversing the birth canal. Also, a strong correlation is seen in children who were breastfed versus given baby formulas with the development of illness from changes in the microbial community (microbiome).

Whether you are thin, or fight to keep the weight off, or obese is now understood to be directly caused by the types of bacteria you have or don't have in your gut! Even your mood and cravings are often determined by the microbial collective!

Early disruption of the optimum microbial populations in the body can have lifelong consequences, not just in terms of intestinal function but in distal organs including the brain. 

The generational use of antibiotics and the subsequent extinction of ideal species of bacteria in the microbiome in a family also can lead to the predispositions to illnesses that were previously thought to be genetic in origin, such as autoimmune diseases. Asthma and other environmental and allergic sensitivities are now recognized to be caused in large part to the absence of key friendly bacteria in the body from antibiotic use, poor diet killing off friendly bacteria, the use of chlorinated/fluorinated water, environmental pollution/toxins, EMF radiation from electronics, and the manipulation of the gene-pool and microbiome with vaccinations.

The future is bright with hopes of using hundreds of types of friendly bacteria to combat and eliminate many of the world's worst illnesses. You will be able to implant a specific type of bacteria for weight loss, another type for chronic emotional problems, another for eliminating diabetes, cancer, allergies, and the list goes on. 

Long term antibiotics are now recognized to be definitely causing more problems than they are fixing, not only killing the harmful bacteria, but also the friendly bacteria that are so important in maintaining health of the body and mind. The era of chemical, prescription antibiotics has largely run its course and thankfully there is something infinitely better positioned to take its place...friendly to humans, tailor-made bacteria designed to seek out and destroy disease promoting bad bacteria in the body. We are entering the era of designer bacteria. Cornell researchers have developed a genetically-modified strain of Lactobacillus bacteria, a commonly found friendly gut bacteria, that can virtually eliminate diabetes in rats, by causing the bacteria to secrete a protein called Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1).

The rush is on to develop better ways to use bacteria, essentially either by restoring what we were all supposed to be born having, or modifying known bacteria to target key aspects of diseases. Researchers are rushing to patent specific types of bacteria that are being grown to replace antibiotics and to replace traditional toxic, symptom-suppressing medications. Biotech companies are being called to catalog and maintain stockpiles of the many types of bacteria for medical uses.

Even in Lyme disease, the presence of Borrelia burgdorferi and the many associated co-infections will likely be shown in the near future to be more eloquently addressed by using targeted combinations of friendly bacteria, instead of antibiotics to attack and suppress the bad bacteria from ever being able to cause disease. Indeed, a person's microbiome, in combination with the overall health and healthy lifestyle of the individual, may be the determining factor as to whether someone gets full blown Lyme disease or if they are simply a carrier when bitten by an infected tick, mosquito, or other blood-sucking bugs, not to mention sexual or gestational transmitted Lyme bacteria.

It is now apparent that everything you choose to put in your body is affecting the microbiome, the bacterial population that maintains health.  Every food choice, personal care product you use on your skin, every chemical fragrance in your house, your laundry detergent, every type of medication...EVERYTHING is either helping or harming your microbiome!  Antibiotics, even for short term use, should be avoided, deferring instead to more forms of natural healing that target the body's own ability to prevent the overgrowth of potentially harmful bacteria, while maintaining the harmonious populations of life-sustaining bacteria in the body. 

To be clear, there are many potential insults to the body that can trigger alterations in the microbiome leading to the named illnesses listed in the first paragraph. The point of this article is to bring to light that restoring the microbiome, and dealing with the many downstream damaging effects of the illnesses can result in never before seen improvements. Obviously when tissues are damaged beyond repair, that will be the limiting factor in the complete restoration of health for an individual. The greatest results will always be seen in those individuals who are newly diagnosed with an illness.

The doctors of the Hansa Center for Optimum Health, in Wichita, Kansas are utilizing many of these newly available bacterial strains, in conjunction with many other innovative treatments to achieve better results in chronic illnesses. We are working with novel ways to promote the populations of key types of bacteria that are already present in the body, yet which were being suppressed by various means. We suspect that many of the species of friendly bacteria that are assumed to be missing from a person's microbiome are actual present, yet their population is minimal in numbers. By using strategic treatments to promote the growth of these populations it is our hope that these native bacteria can flourish, providing the missing benefits to the person. The results have been impressive in terms of patient-reported symptom relief. 

Of course not every aspect of illness can be corrected just by restoring the microbiome. Having a wide range of treatment tools, and taking full responsibility for needing to know how to address the entire body, as opposed to just focusing on pieces and parts of the body as seen in the various specialties in conventional medicine, is what makes the doctors of the Hansa Center unique

If it sounds scary to purposely send in bacteria to kill bacteria or to treat disease, when you consider that there are always 10 times more bacteria than there are cells in the healthy human body, you realize it is not scary at all.

It is interesting that according to research the healthy human body has between 1.5-2 QUADRILLION bacteria and as many as 3000 different species, and over 1000 different types of bacteria just in the intestines! Let’s put that into perspective. There are only 150 trillion cells in the adult human body. There are 1500 trillions in 1.5 quadrillion. That is a lot of bacteria!

With thousands of different types of bacteria living synergistically (harmoniously and beneficially) in an optimally healthy body, then health is not determined by the presence of bacteria, but loss of health can definitely be attributed to the absence of key types of bacteria! Yet from the suffering and diseases of so many generations it would seem that bacteria are definitely a cause of disease, right? Overgrowth of the wrong types of bacteria can certainly cause symptoms of disease, but often the direct killing of bacteria doesn’t produce health in the long run. The future of medicine is coming in the form of bacterial wars, strategically pitting specific strains of bacteria to target and shut down the bad bacteria.

Stay tuned! My next article will continue with ways to restore your health through restoring your microbiome!

100% of People With Any Illness Have This Problem


Blown Circuits in the Body
By the age of 19 most people will be living the rest of their life with all 23 circuits in their body being "blown, unless a knowledgable doctor can correct it!" It is a testament to how well designed the human body is that so much disfunction can exist and yet a person might be a high-level athlete, or corporate mogul in spite of it all, until something occurs that is the proverbial, "straw that broke the camel's back."

If you are sick, the temptation is to think it is just from catching a virus, or being bitten by a bug that gave you an infection. Your doctor might convince you that you have a disease, usually with a scary sounding Latin name. Whatever your condition, addressing what I am about to tell you will potentially be the determining factor of whether you are doomed to a medicated life or regaining the life you once enjoyed.

What most people and unfortunately most doctors don't know is that the many organs, glands, and muscle groups of the body are set up on dedicated circuits, much like the circuits of your house. If you go to the circuit breaker box in your house you will see that there are many different circuits dedicated to the various areas of your house.

In a circuit in the body you will find the following all sharing a somewhat dedicated electromagnetic circuit:
  • Organ, 
  • Gland, 
  • Teeth, 
  • Nerves, 
  • Joints, 
  • Muscles. 
For example, the front two teeth on the upper and lower jaw sit on the same circuit as the kidneys, ears, pineal gland, and the psoas muscles on both sides of the body. 

Another example would be the Liver, which shares the same circuit with the eyes, posterior pituitary gland, and canine teeth (also known as the eye teeth, since problems in these teeth can cause eye/vision problems), along with a division of the deltoid muscles...

The abdominal muscles and the big quadriceps muscles that are located on the top of your thigh are on the same circuit with the small intestines, the wisdom teeth, the anterior pituitary gland, and so on... 

If there are problems anywhere on these circuits the body will not give 100% energy to the blown, dysfunctional circuit, so that you will not damage things further by being able to go full-tilt on a damaged circuit. 

As the above "Circuit Healing" picture demonstrates, problems from structural, chemical, stress-related issues, or bioenergetic "software/bioregulation"issues anywhere in a circuit will cause the entire circuit to "blow" and everything on that circuit suffers the same fate. 


Muscles won't work when the circuit blows!

Exercise intolerance, chronic fatigue, and weakness is a common problem in people suffering from chronic illness. When every circuit in the body is blown there is a dramatic reduction in energy throughout the body.

For all of the great intentions, exercise machines are most often used as a place to hang clothes.

It is the proverbial "catch 22," you know you need to exercise to get back to the health you desire, but your body is too weak and the post-workout pain and symptoms is too much to endure to continue working out.

When these circuits are "blown," the muscles on these circuits will only work at about 40% of maximum integrity. It isn’t a problem with not working out enough. 

With just 40% of the normal strength available, there is not enough strength in the muscles to stabilize the joints, leading to pain, nor is there enough mitochondria (energy factories in the muscle fibers) to produce enough ATP (what your body uses for energy) to enable you to do many repetitions of your workout. 

Blown Circuits Affect the Entire Body
In your house, the are many different circuits. The circuits ensure that the distribution of energy is handled efficiently and none of the electrical appliances get overloaded and burn up. Your kitchen is on it's own dedicated circuit. If any thing goes wrong on that circuit, lets say a mouse chews through the wiring and causes it to short-circuit, everything on that circuit will suffer the same fate. Nothing will work. You might only notice the "symptoms" of the blown circuit when your coffee pot doesn't work.

If you did not understand the concept of blown circuit breakers, you might go out and buy a new coffee pot. You might then notice the lights in the kitchen are not working, and try to replace the light bulbs. Your dishwasher won't turn on, so you call the appliance repair service.  You see, everything on the circuit suffers the same fate when the circuit blows.

Without understanding that everything on a circuit will not work when the circuit blows leaves you "treating the symptoms" only, replacing the coffee pot, light bulbs... Obviously, all of these are symptoms of the blown circuit. The only way to correct them is to recognize that the entire circuit is blown, find the cause, the place that the mouse chewed, repair it, AND turn the circuit back on.

When the body is working on only 40% of the optimum amount of energy it should have, a person can take all the best medications, remedies, nutrients, and treatments, but there is not enough energy for the body to utilize them correctly. Everything starts working better with the circuits back up at 100%.

Mainstream Medicine Doesn't Get It
Mainstream medicine is, by their own professional definition, concerned with the suppression of symptoms (replacing the coffee pot, changing the light bulb...) through medication, surgery, or radiation. The model of care, with its separation of medical specialties, also demonstrates this lack of understanding of the interconnectedness of the organs, teeth, glands, muscles...

There are 8 different teeth that are on the same circuit with the mammary glands, where 80% of all breast cancers occur. This fact is of no interest to mainstream medicine. Interestingly, the breast cancer tumors have 60 times more mercury in them than the surrounding breast tissue, from the silver mercury amalgams in one or more of those eight teeth.

Dr. Thomas Rau, M.D., the medical director of one of the top Biological Medicine cancer treatment centers in Switzerland, the Paracelsus Klinik, states that approximately 98% of all breast cancer has a dental cause, most often from a poisonous root canal tooth and cavitation (osteonecrosis) of the jawbone, from one or more of these eight teeth, that is leaching toxins and mercury into the mammary glands. When the tooth issue is resolved the cancerous process is stopped at its source.

In this situation the rotten tooth is analogous to the wire that was chewed by the mouse. The tumor itself is the light bulb that no longer works. Can you see how understanding the circuits and interconnectedness of the body can be vital in restoring your health to resume living your normal lifespan.

Interestingly, if the organ or other tissue is diseased or dysfunctional that sits on the same circuit with a certain tooth, the tooth will also become more susceptible to infections and decay.

Of course there are other causes of breast cancer outside of tooth issues. The point is that getting lumpectomies, mastectomies, and taking toxic chemotherapy is just treating the most obvious manifestation of other things that have gone wrong in the circuits.

In conventional cancer treatment, they are claiming success with cancer if you live just another five years! If you are only in your 30's or even 60's, living just five years beyond your diagnosis doesn't sound that great!

According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, D.O., "Despite a decades-long war on cancer, and the “most advanced” treatments known to 21st century oncologists, people who develop this aggressive, fast-growing cancer are given a prognosis of about 15 months to live — if they’re lucky. Aggressive treatment, including surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, is often started, even though oncologists know it won’t cure the disease."

You can cut, burn, and poison the tumor, but the true cause, the rotten tooth, remains unrecognized and is never addressed, so the best a person can hope for is a false sense of hope provided by remission. Please read the article I am hyperlinking here on "cure versus remission," if you are unclear why remission is not something to be desired.

A truly successful treatment of any type of illness is that the person returns to living their normal lifespan.

Problems Anywhere in the Body's Circuits Can Prevent Optimum Health
"Blown circuits" can happen when there are any type of bad structural, chemical, stress, or bioenergetic problem in the body. If the circuit is blown from an organ problem, then no matter where the symptoms are affecting you, the organ problem must be addressed before the symptoms will go away. If the problem is in the gland, then it must be addressed. If the circuit is blown from a bad tooth, then that must be corrected before lasting health can be achieved. In each of these situations, the organ, gland, or tooth, may be dysfunctional due to a myriad of reasons, all of which must be identified and corrected.

A person can exercise, and even make strength gains, but it will still be only about 40% of what should be available. Imagine how fast you would heal, having 60% more integrity in the muscles!” While eating and living with integrity are definitely steps in the right direction, only a doctor trained to identify and address the myriad of circuit problems can get your body truly reset.

The key to understanding how important these connections are is that any problem anywhere in the circuit will cause everything on that circuit to “blow”, much like overloading the electrical circuit in your house. Everything on the circuit will suffer the same fate!

So in the above example, if the tooth has a bad infection or is being affected by a large silver amalgam filling, or even a bad root canal, it will “blow” the energetic integrity of everything else on that circuit, and the psoas muscles will reflect the problem as a loss of strength.

Athletes depend upon their muscles to ultimately perform and excel in their sport. Few people understand that it is not enough to simply exercise a lot. Not if you want to become a truly world-class athlete, or to simply get back to health and endurance after a prolonged illness.

We have used this new understanding of body circuits to virtually instantly “cure” people who have been paralyzed and others who have not been able to walk for years. We have been able to turn good athletes into Nationally-ranked athletes who eventually qualified to compete to go to the Olympics!

Once the circuits of the body have been “turned on” again, one can begin to reach their maximum potential in all aspects of life. Although I am aware that everyone would just want to be told to take this or that supplement, or herbal remedy at home, both of which can be beneficial, the only way to get all of the 23 circuits up an running all at the same time, that I am aware of, is through having a broad range of training in understanding the interconnections of the body, and using our innovative adjunctive testing called BioResonance Scanning (BRS) to facilitate the body's restoration of all the problems that are blowing the many circuits of the body. It requires a lot of problem-identifying and problem-solving skills to achieve this goal.

Healing is Most Often a Process, More Than an Event. 
When asked “How can you get these amazing results so quickly?” I answer with, “When the circuit in your house blows, how long does it take the lights to come back on once you have flipped the switch back on?” “Instantly!”

Complete health restoration is a process, not a one time circuit treatment. Simply getting the circuits online again can often achieve phenomenal, virtually instantaneous improvements in muscle strength and endurance, but it can take months and years of work to get back to the level of physical strength and overall health that you desire.

All the vitamins, supplements, and various treatments in the world should be seen as numbers in a combination lock for the bank vault door, behind which lies the wealth of your health. Unless you get the numbers in the correct order, you will never get the door to open. This is why most chronically ill people have a virtual pharmacy in their cupboards of supplements and remedies, often given to them by top natural doctors, using all manner of muscle testing and computerized testing devices, all to no avail.

You can have the right numbers (remedies), but in the wrong order, and the bank vault of your health will not open. To complicate things, some problems cannot be fixed with just supplements. If the tooth on a circuit is rotten and there is a cavitation in the jawbone, the circuit can still be turned on, by bypassing the tooth, but in the end the tooth and cavitation will need to be removed and the dead bone cleaned out.

In the same way, bacterial infections, such as in Lyme disease, are analogous to the mouse that chewed the wiring. The difference is that the bacteria couldn't have caused so much damage and so many circuit problems if the circuits were all online and functioning correctly in the first place.

The circuit problems are then the primary cause, and the bacteria just opportunistically made things worse. This is why killing the bacteria in an all out war, bombing them with antibiotics just makes a person more damaged in their circuits.

Your immune system cannot work correctly without the circuits working at full integrity. The only way to really permanently beat these horrible infections is by correcting the circuits, and helping the body naturally eliminate and regulate the bacterial population.

True healing cannot occur by simply masking the symptoms. Health restoration requires the doctor to use the correct healing tools for the job. The more systems that are damaged, the more circuits that are offline, and the longer you have been sick, the less likely it is that you will be able to heal at home on a generic protocol.

The protocol may have many of the right numbers, but will not be everything you need, which is why we have so many different tools, technologies, and techniques to help your body heal, and also why no two people are ever treated in the exact same manner at the Hansa Center.
