GERMAN NEW MEDICINE PRESENTATION
with Caroline Markolin, Ph.D.
Within the context of an introduction into German New Medicine, this presentation covers the discoveries of medical doctor Dr. Ryke Geerd Hamer about the emotional and biological CAUSES of breast cancer. The lecture addresses questions like: What type of emotional distress causes a tumor growth either in the breast glands or in the milk-ducts? What is the biological purpose of the tumor? Why does a tumor develop in the right or in the left breast (or in both)? What are symptoms that the cancer is already HEALING? Why is breast cancer the most common cancer in women? Why are bone cancer and lung cancer the most secondary cancers? Both the therapeutic and preventive aspects of GNM - and of breast cancer in particular – will be explained in great detail.

In every system of traditional medicine, digestion is lauded as the cornerstone of health, exemplified by the common-sense axiom “you are what you eat.” Every physical component of our bodies is derived from our daily sustenance, and just as the quality of a building is only as good as the materials that are used to build it, a diet which provides an optimal range of nutrients is the foundation upon which the body recreates itself each day. This class will provide you with a profound yet simple method to promote good digestive health, considering not only nutrition, but other important factors to such as the mind and emotions, the body's ecology and lifestyle habits.
