Course Description:

All disease is caused by the excess oxidation of biomolecules, mostly intracellularly. It is important to realize that the oxidation of the biomolecules IS the disease, and it is not the cause of some further undefined pathology. Furthermore, the only cause of this excess oxidation is the continued exposure to new toxins. This then allows the simple but clear conclusion: Toxins Cause All Disease. These facts then allow the ability to define the best treatment protocols to minimize/stop all new toxins while facilitating the antioxidant repair of the biomolecules that have been oxidized, spearheaded by vitamin C.

Learning Objectives

  1. Optimizing antioxidants while minimizing toxins optimizes health
  2. The largest sources of new toxins for most people are from the oxidized byproducts of infections
  3. The most important infections in most people with the disease are the mouth (teeth, gums, tonsils, cavities)

Practical Applications:

  1. Always look for oral cavity infections in the routine evaluation of any chronic medical condition.
  2. Always be aware of the possible contribution of persistent spike protein presence, aggravating whatever the medical condition might be.
  3. Design all treatment protocols to optimize intracellular levels of vitamin C in the affected cells as well as throughout the body.
