Detoxification, Allergies
.
First I'd like to thank Dr. Schnitzer for the presentation he gave about
20 years ago at the University of Tuebingen, where I was a student at the
time. That presentation put me on the right path towards a healthy and
successful life. When I moved to America a few years later I included the
small booklet handed out after that presentation in the short list of things
I decided to take with me.
.
It wasn't until another nine years later, after I met my wife, that I came
across this booklet and read it again. Since I moved to America my diet
has drifted away from the ideal and the booklet refreshed my knowledge
about correct nutrition and put me back on the right path. I then ordered
a mill from Schnitzer GmBH, and my wife and I have been living more or
less according to Dr. Schnitzer's suggestions ever since.
.
Today we are both in excellent health, have successful careers, and two
healthy, strong and good-looking children, a 5 year old boy and 2 year
old girl. Now, I would like to ask Dr. Schnitzer a couple questions:
.
(1) Some people refer to a phenomenon called "detoxification" that occurs
when people switch from "regular" diet to raw food diet (like "Schnitzer
Intensive Nutrition"). In your articles you seem to mention detoxification
only in conjunction with viral infections. Can detoxification symptoms
occur without preceding viral infections? Since the beginning of the year
I have completely given up any heat treated foods, including bread, and
have occasionally experienced rather unusual (detoxification?) symptoms.
.
(2) Our 2 year old daughter seems to have allergic reactions to certain
foods, such as certain nuts, wheat, tomatoes, even though she never consumed
any animal products and eats mostly organic ("biologisch") foods. The condition
seems to improve slowly as she is growing older, but we don't understand
why she developed this sensitivity. Her older brother never had any problems.
Do you have any ideas as to what causes this? Could it be related to the
fact that her mother is asian (Chinese)? Could it be chemicals in the food
or environment?
.
Thank you very much!
Bernhard Braun

Dear Mr. Bernhard Braun,
.
thanks for your contribution. With your report about 20 years of health
experience you are encouraging others, who can't believe that it is so
easy to maintain a natural health, including to give it on to the next
generation.
.
Your question 1 - detoxification:
.
There are many ways, how poisons (toxines) can enter the body and accumulate
in the tissues. Too, non-toxic substances like protein and fat can accumulate
in the body, if their intake is more than the body can consume. Stored
protein and fat are the preferred places where the body puts the toxines
also. So, if the person changes from denatured wrong nutrition to a healthy,
natural one, the stored protein oversupply and the fat surplus are metabolized
and eliminated. This sets the stored toxines free, and their elimination
creates sometimes "detoxification symptoms".
.
Your question 2 - allergic reactions of your 2 years old daughter to certain
foods:
.
On the one side, this can be caused by chemical substances, which have
entered the food crops, coming from the atmosphere or water or from fertilizers.
There are thousands of different possibilities. Mercury, e.g., can create
a basic allergic disposition, which expands then to more and more substances,
including flowers, foodstuffs and animals. Another cause can be food crops
with artificially manipulated genetic properties (by genetic technology,
e.g.). In any case, it is a good idea to find out which of the healthy
foodstuffs your daughter tolerates at this moment (which varieties of cereals,
pulses, root vegetables, leafy salads, seeds, nuts and fruits, and bring
her up with those. Probably later she will tolerate all of them, and the
allergic reaction will vanish.
.
On the other side, an allergic disposition can be produced, if once an
acute event like fever or inflammation was treated by e.g. antibiotics,
sulfonamides or other chemical medicaments. This suppresses the immune
system in an acute defense activity. After that, "wrong" reactions of the
immune system can be the consequence. I have seen also diabetes type I
and leukemia raising after such treatments.
.
It would be a good idea to give the child a good homeopathic treatment
- if you find one, by a physician who is an expert in homeopathy and in
electroacupuncture (developed by Dr. Reinhard Voll, Plochingen). Because
electroacupuncture helps to test which homeopathic medicaments will have
the best curing effect on the patient. Such treatment too can produce some
"detoxification symptoms" in the beginning, when toxines, which could have
entered cells and suppress genetic functions, are eliminated by this treatment
(antihomotoxic therapy according to Dr. Hans Heinrich Reckeweg).
.
I don't see any cause in the fact that the mother is asian. In the opposite,
such mixture of more different genes mostly results in a "freshing up"
of vitality, health and beauty.
.
Best regards - sincerely yours
Dr. Johann Georg Schnitzer

Re-Response to "Detoxification, Allergies" (Dr. Johann Georg Schnitzer
27 June, 1999, 23:20:03)
.
Dr. Schnitzer,
.
Thank you very much for your prompt reply to my questions on your forum.
I will follow up on your suggestions regarding my daughters allergies and
look into homeopathic treatments. Since you have warned against chemical
medications in your books and articles I made sure that my children never
received any. They were never seriously ill and easily recovered from occasional
virus infections on their own.
.
Let me emphasize again, that my two children are exceptionally healthy,
good-looking, happy and intelligent (at age five, my son is fluent in Chinese,
German, and English, and my daughter is picking it up even faster). There
is no doubt in my mind that we owe this in large part to your efforts in
educating the public about nutrition and other health issues.
.
Regarding myself, despite having two small children and a busy career,
"Schnitzer nutrition" has enabled me to continuously improve my fitness
and play more and more competitive tennis. At age 39, I feel in better
condition than at any time in my life and can easily keep up with tennis
players half my age.
.
This reminds me of one of your unpublished papers mentioned in your CV:
"Erfolg im Sport durch naturnahe Leistungskost". How can I get a copy of
this paper? Again, thank you very much!

.
Mr. Braun,
.
thanks for your information, that should encourage others to follow up
this way of natural health and vitality, which I try to teach since 1963.
The unpublished paper you ask about (which is mentionned in my CV 1977
and 1986) was a public lecture I gave 25th September 1977 in Koenigsfeld,
Black Forest, where a sports event about jogging happened, in which the
Olympic Champion Lasse Viren (Finnland) participated. Later the paper was
printed as a manuscript with the title "Eine naturnahe Leistungskost als
Alternative zum Doping" (A Natural Performance Diet as an Alternative to
Doping). It has 17 pages. If you would like to get a copy, please send
me your airmail address and some US$ you think appropriate to cover the
copy costs and airmail postage.
.
Just now again there is a lot of discussion about doping, now in bicycle
sports in Europe. The temptation is caused by the wrong concept of a sports
diet rich in protein. This causes a sudden drop of efficiency, when already
a lot of training has been invested, and the date of competition is near.
Not knowing what to do in this situation, the only way out is seen in drugs
... This wrong diet also is the main cause of sudden death of such champions,
which is reported every some months in the news and newspapers.
