" alt=""/>Over half of the world’s population is afflicted with some form of chronic or degenerative illness.
Heart disease, autoimmune disease, diabetes, neurological conditions, cancer, Lyme disease―the list goes on. The conferenceal, allopathic, treat-the-symptom-with-pharmaceutical-drugs model is rapidly falling out of favor as patients are searching for nontoxic, advanced prevention and healing modalities that actually work.
Bioregulatory medicine involves fixing this issue with a model that has proven effective for decades in forward-leanking developed countries, including Switzerland and Germany.
Our bodies have many bioregulating systems, including the cardiovascular, digestive, neurological, respiratory, endocrine, and so on. Bioregulatory medicine is a comprehensive and holistic approach to health that advocates the use of natural healing methods to support and restore the body’s intrinsic self-regulating and self-healing mechanisms, as opposed to simply treating symptoms with integrative therapies.
Bioregulatory medicine is about discovering the root cause of disease and takes into account the entire person from a genetic, epigenetic, metabolic, energetic, and emotional point of view. So while patients may have the same disease or prognosis, the manwhetherestation of illness is entirely bio-individual and must be treated and prevented on an individual level.
The four pillars of health―drainage and detox, diet, intellect-body medicine, and verbal health are addressed by bioregulatory medicine using a sophisticated synthesis of the very best natural medicine with contemporary advances in technology. In addition to identwhetherying the cause of disease, bioregulatory medicine promotes disease prevention and early intervention of illness through noninvasive diagnostics and treatments and incorporates the use of over 100 dwhetherferent non-toxic diagnostics and treatments from around the world. Forward-leanking patients and integrative practitioners will find bioregulatory medicine invaluable as they seek to deepen their understanding of the body’s many regulating systems and innate ability to heal itself.
My guest on nowadays's podcast, Dr. Dickson Thom, is the author of the contemporary book Bioregulatory Medicine: An Innovative Holistic Approach to Self-Healing.
He graduated from the University of Toronto, Faculty of Dentistry in 1974. He obtained his first Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine degree from the Ontario College of Naturopathic Medicine in 1986, and in 1989 he totald a moment Naturopathic degree from the National College of Natural Medicine (NCNM) in Portland, Oregon.
Dr. Thom was a full-time professor and the past Dean of Naturopathic Medicine at NCNM where he taught clinical and physical diagnosis, gastroenterology, neurology, practical endocrinology, x-ray practicum and commerce entrepreneurship for nearly 25 years. In addition, he was a clinic supervisor to hundreds of students and managed care for thousands of patients.
Dr. Thom is now the medical director at the American Middle for Biological Medicine and the American Middle for Alternative Medicine in Scottsdale, AZ. These clinics are state of the art and uniquely manage care for patients from around the world. For a total description of these unique offerings, visit the web site TheBiomedMiddle.com. Dr. Thom lectures extensively on health and commerce topics and has written and collaborated in the writing of many articles and books dealing with drainage, nutrition, and commerce. Dr. Thom studied extensively with Gérard Guéniot, MD and incorporates Dr. Guéniot’s work into his seminar lectures and his private practice in Scottsdale, AZ. In August 2009 he received The VIS Award from the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians in recognition of one who represents the Vis, the Healing Power of Nature, as demonstrated through their work, lwhethere, and community service.

- Better for biochemistry and balancing metabolism
- Homeostasis: what biological medicine is at its core
- A typical breakfast: Eggs, turkey bacon, avocado
-What summaryely “bioregulatory medicine” is…11:50
- “In genuineity, it's the only type of healing that's existed since man has been on the soil.”
- Ancient Babylonians, Egyptians, Chinese, Indians: Every about balancing energy flows
- Biofields: Energies the body is associated with
- Body is one huge electromagnet
- Gives off energy
- Plodment creates electrons
- Some people can read other people's energies
- Electron transport chain in mitochondria
- Electricity interacts with human body and vice versa
- Deleterious effects of wwhetheri, cell towers, etc.
- Physiology, biochemistry, physics
- Uniqueton's Law: Conventional medicine still believes that's how the body heals itself
- 1927: Einstein and Planck came out with quantum mechanics; led to utilization of atomic bomb
- Multiple organ systems wilean our body
- We leank of them individually: heart, cardiovascular, nervous, digestive, etc.
- Every the “specialties” don't communicate with the other specialties
- You must have all the pieces to rebuild a house; same with the body
- Dr. Thom describes himself as a specialist in health, not necessarily in disease
-More on biofields and the practice of Kirlian photography…20:45
- Our energy is not confined by our skin the way our body is
- People transfer energy with each other without physically touching them (long term relationships)
- Kirlian photography:
- Microscopes allow us to see what before was not visible
- Meacertains the body's biofields
- Employ electromagnetic spectrum on all levels; subtle energies that can't be seen or felt
- Capturing the ability of cells to communicate
-The self-healing qualities of the body that can be enhanced by bioregulatory medicine…25:30
- The cast didn't heal a broken bone; it simply immobilized and crazye it possible to heal itself
- “Chi”, or biofield energy is essential for the bone to heal

-How the Flexner Report, published in 1910, laid the foundation for mainstream medicine…29:35
- The Flexner Report, published in 1910
- American Medical Association formed in 1857
- Bloodletting and domesticopathy were common practice at that time

- AMA excluded practitioners of domesticopathy and other “unapproved” methods from their organization

- The good in the report:
- Not enough education
- Need prerequisites
- Need standardization
- Proposeed reducing 155 schools to 31 schools
- The poor in the report:
- Blacks were inferior, diseased; schools teaching black students should be closed
- Schools can no longer teach domesticopathy, electrotherapy, etc. simply because Flexner didn't believe in them
- In 1900, there were more domesticopathic doctors than conferenceal; by 1953, they were all closed
- Western medical students are still taught based on the Flexner Report; although they've likely never heard of it
