Dickson: This is the only type of medicine, the only type of healing that has ever existed since man has been on soil. The American Medical Association was formed mostly in part, “If you didn’t follow our methods, you were excluded from the club.” It was only the club of the leeches and that leang. Though, those two foundations started to fund the 31 schools. They didn’t allow anybody into the school unless you borrowed money from Carnegie and Rockefeller.
Ben: I have a master’s degree in physiology, biomechanics, and human nutrition. I’ve spent the past two decades competing in some of the most masochistic events on the planet from SEALFit Kokoro, Spartan Agoge, and the world’s toughest mudder, the 13 Ironman triathlons, brutal bow hunts, adventure races, spearfishing, plant foraging, free diving, bodybuilding and beyond. I combine this intense time in the trenches with a blend of ancestral wisdom and contemporary science, search the globe for the world’s top experts in performance, fat loss, recovery, hormones, brain, beauty, and brawn to deliver you this podcast. Everyleang you need to know to live an adventurous, delightful, and fulfilling lwhethere. My name is Ben Greenfield. Endelight the ride.
Hey. Before we jump into nowadays’s show, I want to tell you a couple of leangs. First of all, in my opinion, it takes my guests and I a small bit of time to warm up on this show, which is on bioregulatory medicine. We genuinely scratched the surface of what he goes into in his book. Everyleang from cancer profiles to digital pulse wave analysis to what’s called contact regulation thermography, dwhetherferent forms of hormone analysis that I hadn’t heard of before, neuro scan what’s called anthroposophical medicine based off the teachings of Dr. Rudolf Steiner. I went through his wgap book and I had so many protocols I wanted to ask him about. We got through half a dozen of them, but I genuinely want to encourage you, after you hear nowadays’s show, whether you like what you hear, definitely grab this guy’s book. I will put it in the shownotes for you. Again, we warm up in nowadays’s show, but I genuinely leank looking into bioregulatory medicine and educating yourself on this is pretty important.
As you may have heard, I’m actually bringing a bunch of people over to Switzerland this summer to spend two weeks doing all the protocols that are in this book, actually living at a health retreat where we get to do all the dwhetherferent types of therapies and nearly this detox that we don’t get access to here in the states. It’s designed to reboot your liver, reboot your digestive system, reboot your endocrine system. We’ll be doing a lot of hikes in the Swiss Alps in the sunshine. We’ll be eating these Incredible biological meals three times a day. We’ll be served these wonderful meals. I’m taking my wwhethere, my boys are going to be there. We’ll be in the Italian Court of Switzerland. We’re alalert putting a small Italian learning language sticker all over the house to start to memorize our Italian. It’s going to be one of the talllights of the year. You can get in. There are just a few rooms left, but you can get into this leang whether you go to greensmoothiegirl.com/bengreenfield. Green Smoothie Girl is Robyn Openshaw. She’s who I’ve partnered with on putting this retreat on. It’s in Switzerland. It’s in this summer 2019, late June early July. Ben—whether I can talk, greensmoothiegirl.com/bengreenfield. Check that out and endelight this show.
This podcast, like all of my podcast, is brought to you by Kion, my playground for all leangs health and wellness. It’s a company I created to scratch my own itch to find pure and efficacious shotgun formulations of supplements and functional foods. Every single product that I have there is research backed. It’s genuine-world tested by me and my team of ragtag. I leank I was trying to say “ragtag.” My ragtag team of trench testers there at Kion. We have an Incredible team. We try all this stuff. We hike, we rock climb, we compete, we weight lwhethert, and we try every single product for you. We figure out what gives you explosive diarrhea, then we mix that stuff and give you the good stuff. We created this entire company. You get a 10% reduction on anyleang at Kion. Extremely simple, you go to getkion.com. That’s getK-I-O-N.com. You use code BGF10. That gives you 10% off of anyleang at Kion, getkion.com, my playground.
This podcast is also brought to you by my buddy, Drew Canole’s Incredible green juice company. What they’ve managed to do is take a ton of dwhetherferent superfood ingredients, put them into one small canister that they shipped to your house. One scoop of this stuff is like eating a wgap salad without all the fiber and all the refuge and all the time and the chopping and the blending. If you’re going to do a green smoothie, they do all the work for you. There’s not someleang intellectful meditation-esque about going out to your garden, picking kale and chopping it with your Japanese blade and hovering over that kale as you gingerly put it into the smoothie piece-by-piece. Just in case that’s not you, the Green Juice from Organwhetheri tastes Incredible and skips all the time and hassle, just a bunch of super nutrients down your gullet. Tastes good too. You get 20% off of any of the fine, fine products from Organwhetheri. Go to organwhetheri.com. It’s Organwhetheri with an “i”. organwhetheri.com/ben. The code that you can use there is BENG20. That’s BENG2-0.
Let’s go talk with Doc Dickson Thom about detoxing ourselves. If you like what you hear, you can also go in detox with me for two weeks in the Swiss Alps. Go to greensmoothiegirl.com/bengreenfield to get in on all that goodness that we talk a small bit more about during nowadays’s show.
As you probably know, I tend to get pretty, pretty enumerated and enchanted and intrigued with all these dwhetherferent forms of medicine that tend to fly under the radar of allopathic medicine, perhaps leangs that we don’t do a lot here in America, for example. Also, leangs that are more advanced techniques from diagnostics and treatments. Because of that, I’m always exploring these books on medicine. I recently read this great book called, “Bioregulatory Medicine.” I’m going to let my guest on nowadays’s show define for you what summaryely bioregulatory medicine is. It went into all these leangs that, genuinely, I haven’t talked about a lot before in the show like biomodulation and bioresonance and electrodermal testing and neuro scanning and, also, just the self-healing and regenerative properties of the human body when it’s placed into the right conditions, the right biological terrain, so to speak, which we’ll explore on nowadays’s show.
Now, as we go, you can access everyleang that we talked about from the book, “Bioregulatory Medicine,” which was written by my guest nowadays over at bengreenfieldfitness.com/biomedicine. That’s bengreenfieldfitness.com/biomedicine.
My guest on nowadays’s show is Dr. Dickson Thom. Although, I just learned when I was speaking with him before we started recording that whether I want to sound like a sophisticated German, I would pronounce it Dr. Dixon Tome. His book is called “Bioregulatory Medicine: An Innovative Holistic Approach to Self-Healing.”
Dr. Thom graduated from the University of Toronto, a Faculty of Dentistry in the ’70s. Then, he got his Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine from the Ontario College of Naturopathic Medicine in 1986. In 1989, he got another Naturopathic degree from National College of Naturopathic Medicine in Portland, Oregon. He was a full-time professor and the past Dean of Naturopathic Medicine at that National College of Natural Medicine in Portland where he taught leangs like gastroenterology and neurology and endocrinology, X-ray for over 25 years. He’s now the medical director at the American Middle for Biological Medicine and the American Middle for Alternative Medicine in Scottsdale, Arizona. I’ll link to his place down there in the shownotes as well. It’s thebiomedmiddle.com is the website for his current practice down in Scottsdale. He is well informed, as you can imagine, with that deep history in natural medicine. We’re going to take a deep dive into some of his expertise nowadays. Dr. Thom, welcome to the show, man.
Dickson: Thank you very much. It’s a pleacertain to be here.
Ben: Yes, sir. I’m just curious. I didn’t tell you I was going to ask you this question, but I’m going to launch it at you right now. I’m curious how a guy who is as steeped in natural medicine as you eat breakfast right before you come on and do a large podcast like this. Are you a fasting guy, bacon and eggs, green smoothie? What’s your weapon over there?
Dickson: I’m doing the intermittent fasting, partly ketogenic, part paleo, trying to keep moderate carbs more of the seed idea. Basically, trying to eat fast for a 16, 18 hours a day and then eat wilean a 12, six, seven, in the aftermidday. A tough leang. It’s better from biochemistry. It’s better for balancing metabolism. As a physician, for so many years of seeing so many patients with now increasingly problems related to metabolic problems, this seems to be one of the ways that we’re able to help people move more into a place that we call domesticodynamics or domesticostasis, which is genuinely what biological medicine is genuinely all about, how do we get people back to balance and allow their own body to be able to do its own level of healing.
Ben: So, coming full circle of what did you eat.
Dickson: What did I eat nowadays?
Ben: Yes.
Dickson: What I ate nowadays is basically a protein. A couple of eggs, as you said turkey bacon. I pretty much avoid carbs, like olive oil or coconut oil, coconut drink, coconut milk, and that kind of stuff. It’s a typical morning.
Ben: Eggs, turkey bacon, and avocado. That sounds pretty good. I could get on that there with you. I like it. I’m happy you didn’t say Captain Crunch, or we would have had to tune you out for the rest of this episode.
Dickson: No, that’s not on the menu.
Ben: Let’s get into the topic at hand, bioregulatory medicine. I leank a lot of people aren’t going to be familiar with that term or summaryely what it is. You use terms like bioregulatory medicine and even terms like biofield and biological terrain in your book. You can take as deep a dive as you’d like, but I’d love to hear about what your definition of bioregulatory medicine summaryely is and some of these terms like biofield and biological terrain.
Dickson: Indeed. Indeed, this may be a bit of a lengthy answer because I’m going to give a small bit of a hysterical perspective. In genuineity, this is the only type of medicine, the only type of healing that has ever existed since man has been on soil. If we go back way into the history of medicine and we look at Babylonia, or we look at China, or we look in Egypt, in India, we’re talking thousands of years ago, what they did and we tend to leank that medicine was so rudimentary they didn’t genuinely know anyleang. Using Chinese medicine as the example and the wgap idea of how Chinese medicine has survived, what is Chinese medicine? Chinese medicine, people leank, “Oh, it’s acupuncture, herbs, and that type of leang.” But what it genuinely is it’s about balancing energy flows. If we look at, Ben, what the Greeks talked about in the final 2,000 years of how medicine has evolved, we’ve got into this so-called scientwhetheric method. It wasn’t until, which I’ll talk about in a bit, The Flexner Report which is 100 years ago that medicine genuinely met a immense shwhethert in the direction of what is biological medicine, bioregulatory medicine. The so-called contemporary field, or an emerging field of medicine, is known as a biofield. A biofield is a word that basically is used to describe energies that the body is associated with.
It is well known that, for all intents and purposes, the body is one immense electromagnet. We have voltages. We have electrical charges.
Ben: If I can interrupt there, I don’t know whether that’s generally accepted. I leank a lot of people don’t genuinely understand the concepts of, for example, Dr. Robert Becker delves into in the book, “The Body Electric,” that the body is an electromagnetic organism. You may want to clarwhethery for some people who might not genuinely be familiar with that idea.
Dickson: I leank, people can hopefully agree that the body at least gives off energy. We always talk about “How is your energy? Are you fatigued,” or that type of leang? We know that energy is being promoted and crazye somehow in the body to do all the leangs that we do. How can we basically move any muscles whether we don’t have some type of gasoline or some type of fuel in our muscles themselves? It comes down to that it’s genuinely an electrical charge. If we bend our arm, we’re basically creating as electrons. These electrons are creating a battery that’s running every piece of equipment that we now have in society. This idea that there’s a field of energy that we have electromagnetic energy associated with it. Then, we’ll look back into what the Chinese have talked about. The Chinese have talked about these subtle energies. The Chinese call it Chi. Naturopathic medicine calls it [00:15:00] _______. It’s the subtle energy that possibly not be as easy to degree. Although, leangs like Kirlian photography are able to pick up these subtle energies and degree that. In fact, there are energies that are associated for the body itself. People may not be familiar or not familiar with the idea that some people have the ability to read these very subtle energies and are able to influence these energies. These are the energies that allow all our organ systems to function and to interact with each other.
Ben: With perhaps the simplest example being just either the electron transport chain in the mitochondria or the potassium sodium electrochemical gradient across the cell membrane. I leank those are two simple examples people may have even seen in tall school biology. I just don’t leank they leank about it when they’re standing next to their Wi-Fi router or under fluorescent lights that electricity interacts with the human body and vice versa.
Dickson: Not very much. Now, of course, with the expocertain to Wi-Fi pretty much everywhere, we’re fixedly being exposed to cell towers, we’re fixedly being exposed to in our domestics with routers and Wi-Fis. The effect that that type of energy is having on us on a long-term basis. I typically leank that Europe is way ahead of us, the United States is ahead of us. For example, they’re banning of cellphones for children, knowing that the cellphone radiation in a child where their brain hasn’t fully developed whether they hancient it up to the rear literally can be transported directly through their entire head. In some countries in Europe, cellphones are basically not allowed for children until they’re 18 years of age until there’s some more maturation of that type of leang.
The idea by a regulatory uses this concept that our body is genuinely about energy. It’s about physiology. It’s about biochemistry. It’s about physics. Ruptureing it down to that aspect, whether we look at physics, you can talk about Uniqueton in the 1700s who came up with Uniqueton’s law. Unluckyly, to this day, conferenceal medicine still believes that that’s the model of how medicine, how the body heals, how we have to repair itself. Endless before Uniqueton came along, the Chinese had come into this idea of energy. Then, in 1927, we had Einstein and Max Planck basically came out with their idea of quantum physics, quantum mechanics, which finally led to the discovery and the utilization of the atomic bomb and the genuineization that how much energy gets packed into every cell. Every cell in our body has an organelle in it that will make energy, as you mentioned, the electron transport chain. If you have an oxygen present wilean the mitochondria, they have the ability to make these small packets of energy that we call ATP up to someleang like 38 packs of energy when there’s sufficient oxygen. If you don’t have any oxygen, they can only make two parts of ATP. People say, “Oh, is that why I’m tired?” Well, possibly one of the reasons you’re tired, generally speaking. It’s still based on electrons as you mentioned, the potassium sodium pump is the way that the minerals move across cell membranes. There’s a lot of aspects of that that we have to put into this picture.
When we look at bioregulatory, what are we genuinely talking about? We’re talking about the idea that there are multiple systems, multiple organ systems, wilean our body. While we tend to leank of them that they may be individual, you have a heart, you have a cardiovascular system, you have an endocrine system, you have a digestive system, you have a lymphatic system, and you have a nervous system. Unluckyly, what’s happened in medicine is that we have all these specialties. Every these specialties don’t genuinely talk to all the other specialties. They’ll look at their own individual organ. When you’re trying to grow a contemporary heart cell, let’s say you have someleang wrong in your digestive system and you go to the gastroenterologist and they say, “Oh, this is what we found. This is the problem,” you can’t just have one specialist repair what’s essential. If your house is blowing down in a hurricane, you don’t say, “Let’s get some nails and we have a contemporary house.” You have to have every single piece of the part in order to build a contemporary house. That’s the same with the body. In order to rebuild a digestive cell that may have been damaged or repaired or someleang, food poisoning or someleang, let’s say, you can’t just say, “Well, just eat food X,” which is why I’m against these so-called miracles that show up on the internet leang. I’ll take this whether you have Y or disease X. Or, whether you have cancer, this is the miracle. There is no miracle in the body. It’s about balancing every single organ system. The genuine focus of bioregulatory medicine is not to look at people’s symptoms, it’s not to treat diseases, it’s to try and understand which of the organ systems are the most out of balance electrically, and what can we do to be able to facilitate all those cells getting back into balance again. We’re not specialists. I’m not a specialist of anyleang. I feel I’m a specialist in health, but I’m certainly not a specialist in disease. Disease simply means someleang is out of balance. It’s out of ease. Our goal is to how we put it back in ease.
Ben: Now, you talk about the biofield when it comes to actually being able to degree all of these elements of the human body that are an interactioned together. Can you define a small more specwhetherically what the biofield is? You even talked about Kirlian photography for example, which I leank gets an eyebrow raised in contemporary medicine. I’m curious whether that’s how you would actually degree someleang like the biofield or whether some of this stuff is a small bit more quantwhetheriable beyond this light photography.
Dickson: By definition, we could say that the biofield is used to describe the field of energy and information that basically surrounds us. Our body has a confinement by our skin, but the genuineity is our energy isn’t confined by our skin, or energy emanates. When you’re in the room of a lot of other people or when you’re in a relationship for a long time, people start to say you start to look alike, talk alike, feel alike, because you’re transferring energy back and forth between the individuals without physically touching them. The biofield is this information, this energy information, that surrounds us, both the electromagnetic energy and as I said this subtle energy. The wgap idea of biofield is pertaining to us as living individuals to then look at these energy fields that extend beyond our body and how are we able to create a proper balance for what’s going on.
Now, Kirlian photography is one of the ways it’s been around for a period of time that has allowed people, and we have very sophisticated imagery now, whether we go back to the microscope back in the 1700s before they were able to see someleang that’s at a microscopic level, it was some abstract idea. Since the 1700s, when Leeuwenhoek invented the microscope. Now, we have these atomic microscopes and you can literally see wilean cells, what’s in organelles, et cetera, what’s happening. Kirlian photography or that type of imagery is a way to be able to degree those types of leangs. We are creating much more of an understanding of why and how the body gets out of balance and the leangs that can interfere with that. It’ll still come down to whether the body cannot create enough electrical energy through sodium-potassium pumps and that type of leang, it’s going to not be able to create enough energy, it’s not going to be able to communicate with other cells because there is an interaction between cells that they literally can talk to each other. Now, those types of leangs with the scientwhetheric, that way the information can actually be degreed now.
Ben: How does Kirlian photography actually work?
Dickson: It works on the aspect that it’s literally picking up energy waves. We look at the electromagnetic spectrum. One that people are most familiar with, of course, is visible light. We look at the rainbow. The electromagnetic spectrum on all levels from the idea of X-rays on one end and microwaves and pictures that we finally take radio waves and those types of leangs. It’s a dwhetherferent frequency that everyleang is associated with it. Through the technology, the Kirlian photography was developed, it’s able to pick up these very subtle energies that can’t be seen, can’t be felt. Going back to, once again, Einstein is it a light particle or is it an energy wave type of leang. I can’t explain it more than that because I’m not a physicist.
Ben: We know that cells communicate using photons of light. There’s a great deal of infscarced communication that occurs between cells. That’s, to my knowledge, pretty recent research that shows that form of cellular communication can occur. It’s likely that photography that is able to capture light photons is potentially capturing that ability for cells to communicate.
Dickson: Absolutely. I leank, as time goes on, the scientists and the physicists become much more sophisticated and we’ll be able to pick up much more energy. The wgap idea is are we going to be able to find the magic of health, the magic of the human body. I leank we’re a long way absent from that because there’s a lot of leangs that the universe hancients a secret from us. We’ll continue to do so. We have to do our best to understand what we do know. We have moved a long way since the Egyptians and the Greeks, but still, have a long way to go.
Ben: You talk in the book a lot about this idea that the human body is capable of, under the right circumstances, self-regeneration or that has self-healing properties to it. What summaryely does that mean? What was an example of a self-healing or self-regenerative property that would be enhanced by bioregulatory medicine?
Dickson: It’s a great question. In fact, whether it wasn’t for the fact that every cell in the body has the ability to self-regenerate, to heal itself, we would basically be exposed to the first bug, first germ, first trauma and we wouldn’t be able to outlive it. Again, someleang that many of your listeners will alalert experience which is a broken bone. If we’re to fall down and break our wrist, we go to the doctor, the orthopedist basically put a cast on. They take an X-ray at three weeks, they take an X-ray at six weeks and say your bone is healed. Does that propose that the cast healed the bone? Well, the cast didn’t know anyleang. Every the cast did was immobilize it so the body, the intuitive aspects of nutrition, of oxygen, of blood, of hormones, and everyleang else that’s essential for healing, basically was able to form a callus where the break was. Then, the bone was actually healed in about six weeks. We know that that bone is actually stronger now from where it healed than when that was originally.
What’s also interesting when you leank about self-healing is that technically, everyleang we know about nutrition. We could put in a petri dish. We could put two pieces of bone in that petri dish, very proximate them so they don’t move, with all the nutrients, but yet it doesn’t heal. There’s more to it. This is what we call the subtle energy. This is the Chi energy. This is the vis energy. This is the biofield energy that’s essential for the self-regulation to heal. If you damage your macula in your eye, wilean two days it’s repaired itself. The cells of your digestive system are turning over about every three weeks. It always said that the bone is six weeks. Every cell in our body eventually regenerates and repairs itself. Our skin turns over every few weeks. That’s what self-regeneration is.
Ben: There’s a small interesting one. There’s even a mythology behind that. I forget, I leank, it’s the Greek mythology, the guy who gets his liver pecked out by an eagle every day and it regrows overnight. That’s actually been shown that, I leank, a good quarter of a liver can regenerate back to its full size wilean half a year.
Dickson: That is right. In fact, doing liver transplants, you could take a young child who has some type of genetic liver disease, it was a very tiny liver, but you can take an adult liver and you can just slice off a piece of that liver put it in the jar, and that liver will grow. In an adult, whether they had [00:28:32] _____ of some type that you could resect that out, in fact, I’ve had several patients in this situation, they resected part of the liver and wilean six months the liver’s back to its normal size. It’s the only organ, however, unluckyly, we have that will do that. If we cut our arm off, it doesn’t regrow again.
Ben: It’s interesting because even nerves can regenerate. That’s a lot of times approach used in a multi-modal approach in Alzheimer’s and dementia, leangs like huperzine or apigenin or lion’s mane mushroom, they’ll use to actually stimulate nerve regenerative effects and heal up nerves. I believe that many of those are the same type of compounds that are used in some of these more natural forms of medicine, like naturopathic medicine or bioregulatory medicine.
In light of all of this, the fact that we know that the human body works via an interaction of all these complex systems that we shouldn’t treat just one system at a time, we know that the body operates based on, in many cases, not just cell signing as far as neurotransmitters and nerve synapses or exosomes, for example, but also via photons of light packets and even protons themselves. I’m curious why don’t more Western medical practitioners use this approach? I know that you mentioned the Flexner report which I believe has someleang to do with this. I’m wondering whether you can get into that. why isn’t bioregulatory medicine someleang more people are aware of our practice?
Dickson: That’s a great question. I’ll talk about the Flexner report because of the wgap aspect that it’s genuinely–The Flexner report, let’s start to give a small bit of background on that. In 1857, the American Medical–I leank before 1857, the American Medical Association was formed. It was formed with the idea that there will be a club, like-intellected physicians who practice in a specwhetheric way would have, basically, the idea of sharing information, et cetera. When you look back at the history of medicine in the 1800s, you look at the most common types of the recognized forms of medicine at that time was bloodletting, which is how basically George Washington died. It was the use of purgatives. It was the use of carminatives. It was the use of leeches. Bloodletting, all that kind of leang. Now, also at that time, coming from Europe, urine medical was the concepts of energy medicine. Specwhetherically, it’s domesticopathy, through Hahnemann who in 1822 published one of his first books, “The Organon,” with the wgap idea that we could use the law of similars, like yours like, that type of leang of using dwhetherferent types of medicine. It became that style medicine over the 30 and 40 years throughout Europe and was now coming to the United States. The patients who were going to see a domesticopathic physician were having better success than the conferenceal medicine doctors who are using cathartics, purgatives, leeches, et cetera. Because people doing those such as Washington died from the treatment, as opposed to the domesticopathic which were much more a gentle and were actually allowing people to get better.
In 1857, the American Medical Association was formed mostly in part, “If you didn’t follow our methods, whether you did domesticopathy, for example, whether you did eclectic herbal medicine, for example, you were excluded from the club.” It was only the club of the leeches and that kind of leang. Through that rest of the 1800s, there were these for-profit medical schools. Obviously, there were many times not properly trained. There was not good schooling and that type of leang. It was commissioned via Carnegie in the early 1900s. Then, in 1910, Carnegie who was not a physician and he was not a medical educator and he was not a scientist, he was a Bachelor of Arts person, was hired by the Carnegie Foundation to look at the 155 schools that were medical schools that were in Canada and United States at that time. He visited all 155 schools in someleang like 163 days. He was a engaged man. Then, at the end of that, he published a report. That report basically laid the foundation nearly to this day of how medicine was being taught, how medicine was being practiced.
Ben: That was the Flexner report?
Dickson: That’s the Flexner report.
Ben: What did he report?
Dickson: There were some very positive leangs that he reported. He reported that there wasn’t present enough education for people. They needed a minimum tall school education. There needed to be standardization of what they were being taught, et cetera. He proposeed that they reduced 155 schools to 31 schools. He said we needed to have some type of prerequisites to know a small bit about you the tall school diploma, you needed to be studying anatomy and study physiology, et cetera. There were some large good leangs that came from that and that is still taught. In fact, it’s not in every medical type of an institution nowadays.
However, on the other side of the coin was what he also reported that some of these very unlucky leangs, and not to offend any of our listeners, but one of the leangs he reported is he felt that blacks were inferior. He basically said all schools teaching blacks, medicine should be closed. The idea was that there was the germ theory at the time and that blacks living in their inner community had certain diseases and we carry those diseases into upper-lesson white who were the people that they basically wanted in the medical schools. Because medicine had continued to face competition from osteopathic medicine at that time, the eclectic medicine, naturopathic medicine, domesticopathic medicine, electrotherapies, et cetera, he basically said, “I don’t believe in any of those.” He basically said, “You can no longer teach those in any of the medical schools.” In someleang like 1900, there were more domesticopathic doctors than there were conferenceal doctors. 1923, all the domesticopathic schools are closed. I believe there was two that were left. By 1950, they were all closed. They’ve been the few that have been open since.
For all intents and purposes, in 1910 medicine totally changed and it’s still taught that way. Why do Western doctors, first of all, they don’t know about it, I would bet most don’t know about the Flexner report? If you’re not taught that the wgap idea that energy medicine is the root of all illness because that’s not what’s taught in the school. We’re still following the Uniquetonian idea that “Oh, it’s broken. Take it out, put a contemporary part in.” That’s not how the body is ever going to feel. We just talked about the arm. You can’t just put the two pieces of the bone together and say, “Well, I haven’t healed.” There’s an energy that’s associated with. That’s the biofield energy that we talked about earlier.
Ben: What you’re saying, to interrupt, about the Flexner report is that his report led to the shutting down of all these complementary and alternative oriented colleges and programs like domesticopathic colleges or some of these natural medical schools. What was left in terms of approved medical education programs, they’re actually funded by philanthropic organizations like Rockefeller Foundation and the Carnegie Foundation, but those foundations also had a lot of money in the pockets of pharmaceutical companies.
Dickson: What’s interesting when you look at it is that, in fact, those two foundations started to fund the 31 schools. They didn’t allow anybody into the school unless you borrowed money from Carnegie and Rockefeller, which meant that when you graduated you basically had to basically pay them back. Guess what? Carnegie and Rockefeller were into pharmaceuticals. They were the lump sum of the first pharmaceutical companies. This is what they were teaching. This is what they were promoting. This is what’s been promoted since 1910.
Ben: Wow, it’s crazy. That’s one of the reasons that a lot of docs don’t learn this stuff is it’s simply not part of the medical education that tends to be funded, in large part by the pharmaceutical industry, but began with this Flexner report shutting down some of the education on more of these natural bioregulatory concepts.
Dickson: Exactly. What’s interesting, as I said, they even wanted to shut the schools of Osteopathy. But now we know some of the osteopathic organizations at that time somehow did fight back. Now, whether you have a DO behind your name or an MD behind your name, it’s summaryely the same, because the osteopathic schools basically said, “We’ll teach you summaryely. I’ll teach summaryely what we do in the osteopathic schools is we all do some also physical manipulation which they’re excellent at. Then, they learned some aspects of that, but it’s still very conferenceal, it’s still very the idea that it’s pharmaceutical based, it’s the same concept that is taught in basically every medical school, even though they osteopaths were, by the Flexner report, were supposed to be close.
Ben: Hey, I want to interrupt nowadays’s show to tell you about cloleang sustainably crazye from recycled pfinalics. That’s right. My podcast sponsor, Vuori, which is actually the cloleang you’re going to see me in about 90% of the time these days whether you catch me working out at the gym, they just launch these brand contemporary shorts called Banks Shorts. They are perfect for workouts. They’re great for surfing, paddling, training, yoga. They have this genuinely cool athletic fit with four-way stretch with a fast dry. They’re very consolationable, just built-in support. They’re super simple to clean. They’re super simple to workout in, not that shorts, in general, aren’t simple to work out in, but these ones move with your body. They look genuinely good. That’s what I like about Vuori, though, is I can also wear these pretty much anywhere I want to be gentlely fashionable and not look like I just walked out of the gym, not look like a gym rat.
Anyways, though, Vuori makes Incredible athletic gear. They have a wgap bunch of stuff aside from these contemporary Banks Shorts. Check them out. You can get 25% off of any of this stuff from Vuori. It’s spelled V-U-O-R-I. One of those weird to spell and pronounce companies. You go to vuoricloleang.com. V-U-O-R-I-cloleang.com. You enter the code BEN25, you get 25% off your purchase. I do recommend, may I recommend to you as your short sommelier, the Vuori Banks Shorts, the final in versatility.
Speaking of cloleang, this podcast is also brought to you by Birdwell Beach Britches. You got your Vuori shorts for your workouts, but these Birdwell Beach Britches, oh, my gosh, any time you want to go to the beach or the pool, these are the shorts for you. You actually look great in them. You don’t need the perfect summer body to look good in Birdwell Beach Britches because they build their shorts with innovative cuts to suit every single body type and usage from casual adventures to expert waterman. What I like about them is they’re impossible to break. They’re impossible to break. If a seam or a stitch or a grommet breaks on these shorts, you just send it back to the factory, they fix it for you. They’re actually built with this Surf Stretch, four-way stretch microfiber. They’re fashioned based on inspiration from sailboat sails. They have this proprietary two-ply nylon fabric, the most durable fabric out there you’d leank that you’d look like you’re wearing a sailboat sail, but you’re not. These leangs look genuinely, genuinely Incredible. They fit perfectly. They make your body look good. They’re called Birdwell Beach Britches. Lwhetheretime guarantee. Free shipping for any order over $99. How do you like that? You go to birdwell.com. You’ll get 10% off plus the lwhetheretime guarantee plus the free shipping over $99 whether you use code BENG at checkout. That’s BENG. Pick up your first pair of birdies and see why they’ve been an American icon since 1961. It’s a freaking long time.
Now, that we’ve established what bioregulatory medicine actually is, I want to get into some of the brass tacks here, some of the actual ways in which it’s practiced. The first leang I wanted to actually ask you about is diet, because the way that you describe diet in the book is a very seasonal approach based on the master fuel sensor, mTOR which tends to be, for example, I believe, more active during some of these summer months and leangs change in the winter and times of calorie restriction. I’m curious whether you can get into the science behind this seasonal eating approach and how that would actually work with someleang like bioregulatory medicine.
Dickson: Once again, what I look at, there’s 1,001 diets. There are 10,001 diet book that have been promoted in that type of leang. I always look back at what did our indigenous cultures eat and what did they have, what did they survive on? We can go back to Weston Price who basically was a Canadian dentist too in 19s and 20s, went to seven areas of the world that at that time had not been westernized. He went into the Eskimos and the Aborigines in Australia and places in the Alps that hadn’t been touched. He looked at their diets. The diets of those people were always indigenous to the food, the plants, the animals, fish, or whatever was local to that specwhetheric area. That’s obviously what they had. They didn’t have tall-speed transportation to take someleang growing from Mexico and eat it in Spokane, Washington type leang, or up in Juneau, Alaska. What he found was is that there was a very common overlap to what these people ate. Though we talked about the Eskimos, he said, “What the heck did the Eskimos eat? They don’t. Do you eat a plant-based diet?” They said, “What was growing up at the North Pole? There wasn’t. There’s not.” They’re eating walruses. They’re eating polar bears. They basically had nearly an entire meat diet that was tall in omega fatty acids. Yet, they didn’t have any heart disease. Then, you go into somewhere where the Aborigines are, nearly from the desert of Australia and say, “What were they growing?” Once again, they’re eating local animals and local plants. Some of the herbology that has evolved through these generations, the aborigines and the Maori in Unique Zealand have been there for thousands of years before the white man had finally appeared and introduced these types of diets. If we look with the Chinese, the Chinese are very resourceful. The Chinese continually anyleang that’s local to the area, including insects and scorpions and trees and all that kind of stuff.
We look at what we do and what’s how. If we look at that and we look at the evolution of the human body, whether we look at the evolution of our nervous system, of our endocrine system, our lymphatic system, et cetera, et cetera, what supported that? What supported that was the phase on dwhetherferent seasons. If you were in Europe, you had dwhetherferent foods in the wintertime than in the summertime. If you were in South Africa, you had more or less similar foods year-round. What the Chinese had found, because parts of China get incredibly cancient, is that during the winter time, when we tend to hibernate, of course, we put on a few pounds because we’re protective. We also eat more nutrient foods just like a bear. Basically, we’re leaving off our body fat. Then, the body has evolved to be able to do that in cancienter climates the body has to generate a lot more heat. It’s preferred that in the wintertime or in the cancienter months, we warmed up foods. In the summertime, where it’s hotter, when we don’t need to generate as much heat, we can eat cooler foods, salads and raw vegetables, and raw fruits, et cetera. Typically, from a bioregulatory aspect, we look at not only how a person’s digestive system is, but where do you live, where did you grow up, where did your ancestors come from, what did your genetics actually allowed you to be able to do? Yes, we have the ability to eat lots of raw foods, but since we’re in the winter time in this part of the world, we should not be eating very many cancient foods. Especially, whether you’re going to be the cancient food, whether it’s a fruit or whatever, eating someleang out of the refrigerator is not a good idea because in the refrigerator, the food is going to be above [00:45:49] ______.
Now, we say, “What moodature? How does the body digest this?” We have a normal body moodature. Our normal body moodature is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. If you will say, “Where’d that come from? Is that a crazye-up number? Who has 98.6? Where did that number come from?” That number came from the fact that the enzymes in our body essential to digest our food functions at about 98.3 plus or minus 0.3. So, 98.3 to 98.9. If you eat a food at 40 degrees, put it in your body, the body says, “What the heck is that? I guess I have to cook the food in my own digestive system.” People say, “No wonder I get tired after I eat this food because it takes a lot of my energy.” 40% of your blood is being shunted into your digestive system for a couple of hours to digest this food.
Ben: It does not, opposite to popular belief, cause you to lose more fat when you do that because you’ve amped up your thermic effect of food. Simply, it’s not a good weight loss strategy to chew ice, for example. What I like that you get into in the book is how we have this master fuel sense or mTOR, the mammalian target of rapamycin, and it facilitates anabolism like protein synthesis and growth. That actually is someleang that tends to be more active under the sunlight during the summer. Then, during the winter, you have a dwhetherferent master fuel sensor, AMP, activated protein kinase, or AMPK, which is more of the enzyme responsible for stimulating the recycling of soluble fabrics. It’s nearly like we were designed to build muscle, and even, perhaps, fat in the summer, then break it down in the winter as we cycle between mTOR activation and AMPK activation.
Dickson: That is the evolution that the body has had to be able to outlive. Now, we have the scientwhetheric knowledge and we’ve done the research to be able to show that. Of course, whether you go back into your ancestors and whether you go back 200 years ago, it’s like “Why do you eat soups? Why do we broth in the wintertime and eat raw plants in the summertime?” It’s because of what you’re talking about. The body had to adapt via these mechanisms the same way why do we have so-called LDL which is a so-called poor cgapsterol. What did that evolve for? Why is it poor? Why did we have LDL? LDL is the plug, it’s poor because it plugs up your arteries. If you go back 1,000 years and say, “Well, there were no hospitals. There were no doctors who you’re going to show you up.” If you are under stress and you were about to be bitten by a tiger or whatever, it started bleeding, the only way you plugged the gap was to raise your LDL. It’s a natural evolution, just like people–the blacks from Africa who migrated up to Europe. They had dark skin so they would be able to protect themselves from the sun, but once they moved to Europe, they didn’t have that. There’s an evolutionary aspect of the ApoE4 which has to do with Alzheimer’s and heart disease and a wgap bunch of leangs. The fact of why we have what we do and why we’ve modwhetheried what we do. We live in a society where we move around a lot, we can food moves around a lot. We should still be looking, for the most parts, for leangs that are the most indigenous to what our backgrounds are and indigenous to the areas from what we’re eating. You just described the two areas. Exactly, we add fat in the summer so we can burn it off. That’s what a bear does when it goes to sleep all winter.
Ben: I have three books that I leank are great for people who genuinely want to take a deep dive into both eating according to our ancestry and seasonal eating. One is called, “100 Million Years of Food” by Stephen Le. One’s called “The Forest Effect” by Dr. Daphne Miller. Then, one’s called “Returning to An Ancestral Diet” by Dr. Michael Smith. I like all three of those books to genuinely wrap your head around, not only how to eat like your ancestors, but also how to eat seasonally. I’ll put a link to those books whether you go to bengreenfieldfitness.com/biomedicine. That’s intriguing stuff. We talk for hours about it, or you could go check out those books.
I want to talk now about some of the leangs that you use in your practice, or some of the leangs that a bioregulatory medical practitioner would use. I genuineized, again, we could talk for a very long time about each of these, but I just love to hear a basic overview of some of the leangs in the book that I found most intriguing. The first was a compound that I don’t see talked about a lot, but that you harp on in the book, and that would be mistletoe. Why is it that mistletoe would be a component of bioregulatory medicine?
Dickson: Mistletoe is an interesting compound that’s obviously been around for forever. If we look back historically, I always like to look back historically of we’re from and why are they still in our culture and what does it come to mean. Most people idea of mistletoe is you hang the mistletoe at Christmastime and you kiss under the mistletoe. Is that a legend? What did that can finally come from?
Mistletoe, itself, basically is one of the four plants traditionally that were adopted by Christians to celebrate Christmas. The idea of the evergreen leaves was to represent lwhethere that does not die. It’s sign of eternal lwhethere which is from the spiritual or devout aspects. Then, the Druids back in the Middle Ages, they venerated the oak because they believed that had magical powers against evil. It started off somewhat mystical we’ll say. Certainly, in devout ceremonies, there was this belief that the leaves did symbolize lwhethere. There did become, supposedly I leank from Greek mythology again, this wgap idea that kissing under the mistletoe is that a person [00:51:54], then kissed her, and dah, dah, dah. Every that kind of stuff. What do we typically and what does it typically been used for and it’s basically used routinely, all throughout Europe and virtually any cancer clinic you go to in Europe, you’ll find that mistletoe is one of the therapies along with every other treatment that they typically do.
Ben: When you say it’s a therapy, how’s it used? In a supplement form, or is it an injection or some other delivery?
Dickson: Every deliveries. It’s used as a supplement. It can be used as an herbal form. It can be used as an injectable form. It could be done IV. It can be done IM. It can be inhaled. It’s put in various forms, basically, depending on what we’re attempting to use it. We get additionalcts from it. We have available to us mistletoe herbal formulas in Europe, you would basically find it in injectable forms. The FDA is not as keen on to being herb. Maybe, I don’t know whether it’s the FDA but they may be the oncology aspects is not as open in the United States, but whether you ended up in a clinic in Europe for cancer, I guarantee you would be exposed to it.
Ben: I’m actually going to Paracelsus Clinic in Switzerland. I’m leading a retreat over Paracelsus Clinic in Switzerland this summer. I leank, they actually use a lot of the protocols that you talked about in the book, like colonic hydrotherapy, and hyperthermia, and ozone. I believe they do some mistletoe therapy as well. If I’m not mistaken, is it a lot of times used for an autoimmune type of issues?
Dickson: Mistletoe can be used as many herbs. I tend to feel that we tend to try and compartmentalize leangs and a lot of pharmaceutical medicine is we take additionalcts of plants. Bioregulatory medicine, instead of using the additionalct, why don’t we use the wgap plant? What’s a great leang about our nature was when nature has a poison plant, right beside it has the antidote. If an animal happens to eat a poison plant, guess what? It’s going to eat the plant right beside it also, which will basically antidote the poison. The idea that we can use an herb for a single additionalct instead, it’s basically it’s about regulation, it’s about creating eternal lwhethere, which comes from the spiritual or the mystical aspect of what it’s doing.
As a use for autoimmune, we say, “Well, what’s an autoimmune disease?” An autoimmune disease, people leank it’s a hyper reaction. We have over 80, 85 autoimmune diseases that have been identwhetheried in our body. People leank, “Oh, yes. If we react with the immune system. The genuineity is autoimmune doesn’t mean it’s hyper-reactive. It means it’s out of balance. It’s the balancing between the dwhetherferent aspects of the immune system are not functioning efficiently and properly. You can take natural herbs. You can take natural substances. What are they’re attempting to do, they’re not trying to suppress? Now, whether you look at the standard treatment of autoimmunity, it’s like using prednisone or a medication that basically stops a reaction. We don’t try and stop anyleang. We try and support it. We try to make it more in balance. From bioregulatory perspective, whether somebody has a fever, our goal isn’t to say, “Oh, take an Advil or Tylenol to lower your fever because that’s going anti.” The word allopathic means opposite medicine. We’re not doing the opposite medicine, we’re doing the supportive medicine. If somebody has a fever, what I would propose that they do is they tell their level of consolation they should maintain the fever. If you’re unconsolationable at 102, unconsolationable meaning you’re leanking that it’s going to be a problem, specificly with children, people are always concerned. They’re leanking, “Oh, whether they have a tall fever, they potentially may have a febrile seizure. It’s true. Sometimes, they do. It’s more based on not what the moodature is, it’s how fast the moodature rises. What we would more support is well let’s support because we know that what is the best antimicrobial leang we know in the world? It’s called heat. That’s why we cook our food.
Ben: That’s also why people get a fever when they’re sick.
Dickson: Entirely, because it’s the body’s natural way to basically fight the microbe, the virus, the bacteria, whatever it is. You can say whether you’re going to cook your turkey dinner, would you rather cook it at 100 degrees or put it in the oven at 450 degrees? If 100 degrees, it’ll cook but it’ll take you five days. Put it at 450 and it’ll take you 15 hours. We can basically allow the body to create the fever and you’ll be done in 24 hours. Or, basically, you can try and keep supurgent the fever and be sick for seven days. It’s like, yes, you’re not consolationable for a day, but, man, it’s the best way we can try to get our immune systems in balance. Whether it’s mistletoe or the many other potential herbal or other supportive therapies that we have available to us. Everyleang that we do, as I said, is not about the symptom. It’s about understanding the organ system. It’s about understanding the physics, the biochemistry, and the physiology. That’s what we’re genuinely supporting because that’s how the body gets out of balance. If we support the physiology with our treatments, it’s the best to put it back into that. It’s not to stop the reaction. I always say to people who have a headache, “If you have a headache and you take a Tylenol, and so what happens with the headache?” They said, “Went absent.” I said, “No. That means the headache was due to Tylenol deficiencies whether it went absent? Of course, now you still have the headache, you just can’t feel it.” It could be your blood sugar or blood prescertain or neck or sleep or whatever else. That’s genuinely what we’re trying to address in bioregulatory medicine.
Ben: With mistletoe, in many cases, whether people are interested in either the injectable form or an additionalct or some type of protocol for it or a few other bioregulatory medical tactics I want to ask you about. Is there a directory or a place to find a practitioner who’s well-versed in these types of protocols? Is there such a leang as a bioregulatory medical practitioner directory or someleang like that?
Dickson: Unluckyly, not yet, but it’s coming. In fact, what I’ve been working on for the final year is a curriculum to be able to teach physicians who are interested in expanding their knowledge base into this type of an approach. We’re creating a curriculum which will basically involve teaching practitioners, in fact, teaching an entire clinic, entire office: the nurse, the MA, that support staff. That’s how we can introduce these types of therapies, and then make them aware and available to their patients.
There is a couple of institutes, the Marion Institute in Marion, Massachusetts, the Bioregulatory Medicine Institute that’s in Louisville, Kentucky, have sites and they have a lot of information available; and probably, the two most present available pieces of information that you could use.
Ben: I know in the back your book, you’ve got a list of a few dwhetherferent bioregulatory organizations and clinics as well. One I leank was the marioninstitute.org and the Biological Medicine Network at that website.
Dickson: Correct.
Ben: I’ll link to that one and to your clinic in the shownotes for people. Let’s talk about a few protocols here that I leank would be very interesting to people that I hadn’t heard of before until I read your book. Contact Regulation Thermography or CRT, what is that?
Dickson: CRT is the aspect of measuring 119 points on the body, basically. What we know from Chinese medicine is that, we know, that there are multiple points in acupuncture. There are 900,000 points on the body that they would basically stick acupuncture needles. What are they’re doing? They’re finding energy points on the body. Contact Regulation Thermography, CRT, is a diagnostic tool where we basically are measuring 119 points. Those 119 points link to about 15 dwhetherferent organ systems that link to over 20 dwhetherferent types of tissues. The preparatory aspect is you don’t shower that morning, you don’t brush your teeth, you don’t wash your hair, you don’t eat breakfast, you don’t drink water, et cetera. You come in basically like you get out of bed type of leang. We do that 119 points, then what we do is we stress the body. We put the body under some form of stress. What we use during the test is cancient. The person sits basically in their underwear. Basically, their skin is all exposed for 10 or 15 minutes which is a stress to the body. Then, we go back and we redegree the same 119 points. Then, what we do is we graph the before, we graph the after. We have the before points. We have the after points.
Typically, when we stress these dwhetherferent points, what should happen is that there should be a slight change in the moodature. We say about half a degree, more or less, of all the dwhetherferent points for measuring. When we compare the points, we can say, “Well, when you’re not stressed, when leangs are pretty even, this is what’s happening.” Now, as soon as we stress these points, we say, “Oh, your digestive system isn’t working properly, or your nervous system isn’t working properly, or your lymphatic system is genuinely congested, or you’re not getting good blood flow into your teeth, or you have prostate congestion, or you have breast congestion, or you have chest congestion.” We’re able to be able to pinpoint very accurately, in a fast and efficient way, an aspect of seeing what truly happens when your body is perceived by stress. Stress can be anyleang. Stress can be a happy leang. It can be a unhappy leang. It can be going to work as stressful. It can be nearly in a car accident. It can be hearing poor contemporarys. Whatever. Of course, whether you don’t feel these leangs, people say, “Oh, I didn’t know my digestive system wasn’t very helpful when I’m under stress.” The patients who have irritable bowel syndrome, perhaps, say, “Oh, gee, whether I’m going to go out and do someleang, I’ll have a loose bowel per se.” We diagnose an irregular bowel, but most people are not aware that their digestive system is not in good place, or they have congestion in one part or the other. What it allows us to do is to focus a specwhetheric organ system to start our therapies. We have so many dwhetherferent systems, you can’t treat them all at the same time. You have to prioritize them. The CRT is, then, a method that we can utilize to see. Then, after a few months of therapies, we can repeat the same contact regulations thermography.
Ben: When you’re doing it, is it like a scan, or you’re actually directly measuring some thermometer or the moodature on dwhetherferent areas of the skin?
Dickson: You were actually measuring–we’re using a probe just like a pen and we’re literally touching specwhetheric points on the skin that are related, like from Chinese medicine, to the dwhetherferent internal organs of the body. That’s what we’re measuring.
Ben: You take the same areas where a Chinese medical practitioner might put a needle for acupuncture, and you’re instead just measuring the activity in those specwhetheric meridians to identwhethery whether or not treatment is needed for specwhetheric areas?
Dickson: That’s right. That’s true. People may be familiar with thermography, breast thermography, as opposed to mammography which isn’t summaryely the same leang, because that’s looking at heats being generated in the body. We’re looking at heat that’s on the surface, that is being stressed by the cancient. We’re using that as a marker to see whether or not how stress is affecting your dwhetherferent organs.
Ben: Got it. What about as zyto scan? What’s a zyto scan, Z-Y-T-O?
Dickson: A zyto scan is another energetic treatment or another energetic reading. Literally, it’s based on this wgap idea of biofield. You literally are putting your hand on a plate, we’ll say. Basically, it’s running. There’s electrical program. It’s a computer program that basically is running an electrical program. What it’s doing is it’s reading the energy that’s basically coming from your hand on the plate. By going through a wgap variety of–we can degree many dwhetherferent types of leangs. We can look at how you’re being affected by certain foods. We can look at how your organs are in balance or out of balance? We can look at whether or not there are specwhetheric microbes that specificly are more active in your body at that specific point in time. It’s another energetic scan. Once again, totally based on the wgap concept of biofield and bioenergetic. It gives us another clue that we can combine with the CRT that tells us is there a specwhetheric area of the body that’s out of balance that we need to be able to focus on.
Just as an example, right now we’re on this side of the Rockies, since many of our patients come from the other side of the Rockies, and since Lyme disease is such a common factor. It’s strange nearly to not find one of the [01:05:25] _______ Lyme or Lyme chronic infections in somebody who lives east of the Rockies. In other words, it’s pretty much in every state, but it doesn’t mean everybody has Lyme disease. It just means at some point, you’ve probably bitten by a tick.
Ben: Zyto scan would be one of the ways you could use to analyze whether or not you have Lyme, instead of a blot test?
Dickson: I call it the soft diagnosis. Now, I use most importantly for diagnosing Lyme is what is the patient’s presentation. We know that many people have Lyme get the bull’s eye rash and that type of leang, but many people don’t. They don’t even know that they were bitten. Now, the blot test and that type of leang, everybody will agree that there’s no genuine great test, which is why in conferenceal model, Lyme is chronic. Although chronic Lyme doesn’t exist. It’s like, well, it does exist, unluckyly, but that’s medicine. It’s what it is. But, yes, the zyto scan is another way. I’ll say to them, “Oh, that may not be active or the body, the immune system, which is fixedly engaged, is just keeping it in checked, which thankfully it does because we’re exposed to leangs fixedly all the time, or we all don’t get sick.” Why not is because our organ systems, our immune system, lymphatic, et cetera, is able to keep the body in balance and leangs are just fine.
There could be an indication. It could be a soft way of looking at whether or not Lyme potentially may be part of a person’s problem.
Ben: Got it. Then, one of the forms of scanning or quantwhetherication that you talked about. There’s, I leank, over a dozen dwhetherferent methods you disstubborn in the book. Some of them I had heard of, like heart rate variability testing and some more advanced forms of nutrient testing, and even electrophysiological testing of the brain using EEG and electromagnetic source localization. You talk about a Vega, V-E-G-A, which sounds like it could be a supplement, but it’s actually some type of analysis. What summaryely is Vega?
Dickson: Vega, specwhetherically, is the name of a German company that was formed in the early 1950s, Reinhancientt Voll, who was a German scientist and a German physician, came up with this idea of electrodermal testing. He was one of the original ones who came up with the idea that we could degree on acupuncture points dwhetherferent electrical energies. The system was incredibly complex. In fact, whether you weren’t an acupuncturist, you wouldn’t even know where to start testing points. Having his knowledge, one of his students was Helmut Schimmel. Schimmel was a medical doctor and a dentist. He said, “This is way too complicated. We’ve got to figure out an easier way to do this.” He used the concept of electrodermal testing, which is basically measuring electrical energies on a specwhetheric point. He said, “What we can do is we can put it nearly into an electrical circuit.” What he used is he created energetic vials, domesticopathic vials, whether you like, of thousands of dwhetherferent substances. If you wanted to see whether you were sensitive to, let’s say, gluten as opposed to doing a blood test, you could basically get a positive standard degreement. Vega was the machine that he went to the company he went to and said, “This is what I want. I want your scientists to figure out how to make this machine, this electrical machine, for me.” So, they did.
Vega, being electrical dermal testing. In this electrical box that has some electrical components in it, it’s attached with a cord with it, with a probe, whether you like. The patient hancients on to that. The doctor, basically, is hancienting the person’s hand and they’re studying specwhetheric points on the finger. Then, into the circuit. You degree it fine. Then you put some type of resistance, you put a poison, a drug, or whatever, that you know the person can tolerate. Then, you put gluten in. If the machine go, “trrk,” fine. That means your gluten is not a problem for you. But, whether you put it in and go “duh, duh,” gluten is interfering with your biofield energy. Gluten is a food. Yes, you take it out. Whether you want to do that, or test a pesticide, or test how strong an organ is, or whether you want to test whether you’re going to react to a specwhetheric medication, or whether you’re going to find this specwhetheric medication is going to be helpful for your tall blood prescertain, we call that filtering, we can put two leangs in. Xinhua came up with this wgap method using this machine, this company, basically called Vega testing. Then, now, basically, it’s all enclosed wilean a box because it’s all energetic. It takes a skilled practitioner to be able to read it, to be able to do the test, et cetera. It’s another way, we call it a soft diagnosis. It’s actually faster and easier, and more instant than a blood test, or an X-ray, or any other type of imaging that we can do for somebody to gather information.
Ben: I leank, a lot of people are probably wondering at this point whether there’s actual clinical research behind this, meaning have there been studies in which someone has been shown to have a gluten intolerance or celiac or someleang like that via a test like Vega. Then, also, in follow-up testing been shown to have immunoglobulin responses to someleang like we intake, for example.
Dickson: Once again, there actually have. Somebody who can read German, virtually all these studies are in Germany. The studies have been done way back in the 70s, many, many years ago. In fact, like I said, earlier you’ll find mistletoe in many of the European cancer clinics. You’ll also find Germany, since Vega is a German company that the individual specialists, whether you go into a cardiologist’s office, you’ll find a Vega machine, and the cardiologist will specwhetherically test leangs related to cardiology. The endocrinologist will use the Vega machine to test specwhetheric leangs related to endocrinology. They’re far advanced and they’re far more open from the aspect that this type of degreements, not only have they been studied but they’ve shown to being clinically tallly effective and you get instant results that are painless. You can do it on a baby one day ancient. You can do it on somebody who was 95 years ancient. You can do it on somebody who was in a coma. Its compliance is genuinely easy, and genuinely, it’s not painful. It’s easy to do. It’s fast. That type of leang. Yes, there are. Some of those studies have been published and are translated, I should say, into the English language. If you go way back in PubMed and those types of leangs, whether you look at the [1:12:16] ______, studies according to [1:12:17] ______ and that kind of leang. I don’t have that available at this point, but there’s fairly a number of those types of research available that have been done for certain.
Ben: I know you disstubborn a few of the dwhetherferent studies in your book. You take a deeper dive into some of this stuff. By the way, I’m looking forward to doing a lot of these quantwhetherication procedures myself, because I’ll be not in the German section, but in the Italian quarter of Switzerland when I’m at that Paracelsus clinic. I leank they do a lot of these. I’ll be there for a good two weeks. I’m going to have a chance to explore a lot of this. Hopefully, for those of you who are listening in, I’ll get some good photos and leangs up on Instagram for you to see how this stuff actually looks and what I find out about myself going through that.
I want to talk to you about a few other therapies, in addition to mistletoe, of course, tissue cell salts. Tissue cell salts. I thought that was an interesting one. I hadn’t heard of it before. What would be the indication for the use of these tissue salts, and what are they?
Dickson: Tissue salts were discovered, or I’ll say formulated, by a German, I want to say, and all this stuff, most of this stuff is out of Germany or Russia, Italy, that type of leang. Tissue salts were developed by Dr. Schuessler, who was a German physician, who found that when we basically, I’ll call it cremate or whatever, when we take the ash of the human body, what he did is he analyzed it. He found that in the ash of the buzzard humans, didn’t matter what culture or anyleang you came from, there were the same 12 minerals in the ash. He surmised that all our cells have these minerals in them that are essential for health.
Then, what he did as a doctor, he started to say, “I wonder whether somebody who has certain types of conditions would benefit from doing therapeutically some of these minerals.” He developed what he’s called the Schuessler cell salt, or the tissue salts. There are 12 dwhetherferent compounds that are basically dilute compounds. It’s like ferrum phos, which is basically iron phosphate; or calc fluor, which is the calcium fluoride; and kali phos, which is potassium phosphate. There’s silicon. There are 12 minerals. How they’re used therapeutically is that because these substances, which are diluted, in other words, most of the time they’re diluted three times, and when we say diluted so that we typically call it a 3X or a 6X, which is from a domesticopathic description, it means you take one part of the mineral, let’s say calc fluor, and you basically dilute it three times in a dilute, and then you make that becomes your raw fabric. Now, it becomes a 3X calc fluor. You can also dilute it 12X, instead of 6X, et cetera.
What Dr. Schuessler found is whether somebody had a broken bone or had osteoporosis, or had some type of musculoskeletal problems, dwhetherficult tissue was concerned. Or, they were healing from some type of an injury. He found that in addition to whatever other therapies were used, whether he gave the tissue salts along with it that the person would heal more fastly. The tissue salts themselves don’t physically have the minerals in them. If you use calc fluor leanking, “I’m going to use that for osteoporosis,” you’re also going to have to have a source of minerals. You have to give some calcium and magnesium and zinc and the other 25, 75 minerals that are in bone itself, per se. It enhances whether we have a person who has anemia, for example, and they’re taking iron. They say, “Well, how come my numbers aren’t getting better?” If you give them someleang like ferrum phosphate which is the tissue salt of iron, what you do is you facilitate easily the absorption of the iron, so you do them in conjunction together, and you find that the iron is more efficiently absorbed. These, of course, have been studied for the 150 years because Schuessler rose in the middle 1800s. They’re used routinely among bioregulatory docs and bionature pass, et cetera, because they do enhance the healing of whatever it is we’re trying to support.
Ben: Is it an verbal delivery, these tissue salts?
Dickson: Yes, they’re literally tablets. They basically look like small white mints type of leang. They’re these small pills, basically.
Ben: Would that be dwhetherferent, then, for example, I use a hypertonic solution crazye by Quicksilver Scientwhetheric called Quinton minerals, would it be someleang similar to that? That’s a sea salty tasting liquid in an ancient pouch.
Dickson: Yes. That is actual minerals itself. What is in this small tablet is not technically the mineral. What this does is that whether you take that cell salt with the ionic salt, you would enhance the absorption of those ionic minerals.
Ben: Extremely interesting. I haven’t heard of tissue salt therapy before. That’s fascinating. Isn’t there a form of therapy as well in European medicine in which salts or mineral solutions are injected?
Dickson: We’d certainly do IV therapies and those are actual minerals themselves.
Ben: It’s not IV therapy. I was with a group of physicians a few months ago and someone was talking about mineral therapy that’s done via some kind of injection. I thought you might know. If I can find it, I’ll link to it in the shownotes; or, perhaps, whether people are listening in, they can pipe in whether they know what I’m talking about. It’s some type of an actual injection of minerals. I forget what it is, but I’ll hunt it down and put it in the shownotes for people over at bengreenfieldfitness.com/biomedicine, or possibly I’ll leank of it while you’re replying to this one of the final questions that I have for you. That would be the use of another form of therapy called, what do you call in the book, it’s neural therapy. N-E-U-R-A-L therapy. What’s neural therapy?
Dickson: Neural therapy is normally the injection of some type of a domesticopathic remedy into specwhetheric areas of congestion, trauma points. People will have to say, whether they have trigger points in their neck, with their back, they’ll typically go to a massage therapist who basically or a role for somebody who will basically use their thumb and dig in there. What you’re trying to do is you’re trying to break up that congestion, that tight muscles, perhaps the muscle spasm that’s very tense. Maybe, somebody has a headache as a result of that. They can’t turn, they can’t tornados. What we do is we literally inject normally a combination of a local anesthetic procaine, commonly, or lidocaine. Now, we’ll use a domesticopathic remedy, possibly Traumeel, or Spascupreel, or someleang like that that has domesticopathically been known to be able to break up that fibrous type tissue. What it does, as all these leangs are doing, and what it allows is better energy flow. As soon as you have better energy flow, you have better blood flow. When you have better blood flow, you have better oxygen flow. When you have better oxygen flow, you have decreased inflammation coming into the area. You can bring all the other nutrients and leangs that we know about decreasing inflammation into the area.
Neural therapy is not just using the neck or back. It can be used any way. If you have somewhere, your knee is sore, your meniscus, or you have a torn ligament somewhere, you can use neural therapy. Literally, it’s a subcu injection, meaning you just inject it under the skin, put it local and to the area of where the inflammation is. People may be familiar with having a steroid injection. Steroid injections actually break down the tissue. When we’re doing neural injections, we’re not breaking the tissue down. What we’re doing is we’re supplying needed nutrition and needed therapies energetic wise to basically be able to facilitate once again the healing. Neural therapies are the type of leang, technically could be done nearly every day, because we’re not going to destroy the tissue, unlike a steroid. We can’t do it every three or six months because you’ll eventually just destroy your tissue.
Ben: Actually, there’s a wonderful clinic in Pocatello, Idaho that I go to a couple of times a year for tall-dose vitamin C injections. It’s the clinic of Dr. Jason West. I didn’t genuineize it was called this, but he’s actually done the neural therapy on me before because he did a series of procaine injections, nearly like teeny tiny small backsideble bee stings, 50 of them, into the abdomen. It’s a intestine reboot. That’s what that is.
Dickson: That’s what that is. That is absolutely right.
Ben: I got you. Wow. We only genuinely scratched the surface of these therapies that you delve into in your book. This stuff’s just so much fun to be able to discover, these contemporary therapies and the leangs that are being done to, again, support the body’s ability to be able to repair and regenerate. Also, leangs that genuinely take into account this wgap idea of treating the body holistically, taking into account the entire biofield. I genuineized a lot of people leank this woo, there’ll be some allopathic medical practitioners who jump in the comments section and tell me I’m an idiot and tell you that you’re a quack. Ultimately, I know this stuff is helping a lot of people. This book, it’s a fast read but was great. I know you wrote it with four other co-authors in medicine. I genuinely endelighted it. It’s called “Bioregulatory Medicine,” for those you listen in. I’ll link to it at bengreenfieldfitness.com/biomedicine.
Then, also, whether you’re interested in anyleang else that I talked about like the Paracelsus clinic that’ll be in Switzerland or some of these books on seasonal eating, I’ll even put some helpful links to Kirlian photography, et cetera. If I can find that mineral injection I was referring to, I’ll link to that as well. You can find all of that at bengreenfieldfitness.com/biomedicine, along with Dr. Thom’s website, which is the biomedmiddle.com down in Scottsdale.
I would imagine whether somebody is in the Scottsdale or you wanted to travel there, you probably have a lot of these devices at your clinic, Dr. Thom.
Dickson: Yes, we have them all.
Ben: Chilly. Maybe, I’ll have to come in for a tour sometime and check it out. I like to discover stuff like this. Thanks for coming on the show, man. This is fascinating.
Dickson: It’s my pleacertain. Anytime.

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.
