Metals, Health and Ageing

Is it possible that metals are one of the root causes of the chronic disease epidemic we are experiencing today?

World wide health statistics show that we are loosing the 'war on chronic diseases'. In 1972 Richard Nixon promised the people that within 5 years he would have an 'answer to cancer'. He was not the only one, nor the first or last politician making such promises. Health statistics, which everyone can read on the internet, show clearly that especially the 'rich' countries are leading the world in chronic diseases such as cancer, arterial and heart diseases and so on.

The United States of America occupy first place in this dubious race for disease supremacy. The USA represent approximately 4% of the world population but spend 60% of ALL the money spent in this world on health....and yet they are the sickest people on our planet.

Beautiful countries like Australia and New Zealand, where the sky is still blue and the water clear, come a close second. Furthermore 10% of the 20 million Australians suffer from diabetes.

China is now leading the world in  lung cancers and it seems the more they 'catch up with the West' the more chronic diseases the people there develop.

But especially in China, I found, scientists are investigating the role 'environmental metals' are playing in the process.

Generally we have to understand that the 'metal burden' in our environment increased one thousand-fold since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Once we understand how and why metals can cause chronic diseases we also understand why modern medical methods to curb the 'epidemic' may be doomed to failure.

Over the past 20 years I had a close look at the role these metals play in health and disease processes and developed a new method to detect their presence in our environment and ourselves.

The book is dealing with the theory of how and why 'environmental metals' have such devastating effect on our health and shows a practical way of how to detect and neutralise these agents of doom and disease.
