The Impacted Tooth That Caused Prostate CANCER

Dr. Rau’s next case, involving Raglan, 55, who had metastatic prostate CANCER, shows the harmful health effects that an untreated impacted tooth can have elsewhere in the body.

Raglan came to Dr. Rau with a diagnosis of prostate CANCER. Even though his prostate and testicles had been surgically removed, the CANCER process was still under way (as indicated by a high PSA reading of 240) and had spread to Raglan’s pelvic bones. His conventional doctors had put him on high-dose hormone therapy (estrogen and testosterone), but this had failed to halt the spread of the CANCER.

When Dr. Rau took X rays of Raglan’s teeth, he discovered a half-formed tooth impacted above the incisors in the upper jaw—an extra tooth, in other words. This additional tooth, however small, was sitting within Raglan’s kidney-bladder meridian system and creating a serious disturbance in its energy flow, supporting the development of the prostate CANCER, says Dr. Rau.

It isn’t that this superfluous tooth itself caused the CANCER, Dr. Rau explains. Rather, it was the last toxic factor that tipped the scales in favor of serious illness for Raglan. If you conceive of the totality of toxic factors—stress, faulty nutrition, free radicals (cell-damaging compounds), emotional conflicts, dental problems, cellular imbalances—present in a single person as a barrel full of poisons, then the impacted tooth was the final drop that made the barrel overflow, Dr. Rau says.

His first move was to extract the impacted tooth. Then Dr. Rau put Raglan through a series of hyperthermia (high heat) treatments. This is a therapy, used widely in Europe, that temporarily raises the temperature of body tissues to deactivate CANCER cells.

The heat, applied directly to the tissues in Raglan’s groin by a small, hand-held device placed against his skin, increased the electrical activity of the cells, improving their ability to move substances across the cell membranes. This ability is called the membrane potential.

CANCER cells tend to have a lower membrane potential than healthy ones, so when you raise that potential by raising the local tissue temperature by two to four degrees, CANCER cells die from a kind of electrocution. Unlike radiation therapy, which damages healthy tissue as well as CANCERous, heat therapy actually benefits the neighboring healthy tissues, says Dr. Rau. He performed this painless procedure on Raglan in 20-minute sessions, twice daily for ten days.

Dr. Rau notes that insofar as Raglan traveled from South Africa to Switzerland for the treatment, procedures that would otherwise have been spread out over ten weeks were compressed into an intense three-week period.

In addition to heat therapy, Dr. Rau gave Raglan injections of Sanum remedies. As with Babette, Dr. Rau delivered all of these substances in the same injection.

First he used a Sanum remedy called Citrokehl. This remedy would help adjust the chemical nature and composition of the blood; imbalances in what he calls the “cellular milieu” or biochemical terrain are believed to contribute to any disease process, says Dr. Rau. A second component of the injections was the Sanum remedy Nigersan, given to men as well as women for reproductive organ problems. “We increase the effectiveness of neural therapy a great deal when we combine it with the Sanum remedies. Neural therapy raises the cells’ membrane potential, while the Sanum remedies improve the cellular milieu.”

The next aspect of Dr. Rau’s program for Raglan was to replace all of his mercury amalgam dental fillings. According to Dr. Rau’s analysis, the mercury levels throughout Raglan’s body were about ten times higher than the standards of safety as decreed in Switzerland.

“Hormonal tissues, such as the breasts, thyroid and pituitary glands, and the prostate, tend to concentrate mercury that has leached from the fillings,” Dr. Rau explains. Raglan received new nonmercury-based fillings and was injected with DMPS, a substance capable of gathering up and removing the mercury residues from the body.

While Raglan’s essential psychological condition, or constitution type, was not as clear cut as Babette’s, it seemed his main issue was low self-esteem due to rejection (and divorce) by his wife, says Dr. Rau. Based on the protracted disappointment of his marriage, Raglan developed the self-impression that as a male, he was “bad.” Raglan’s strong negative emotions, including anger, fear, and grief, “went” to his prostate by way of its kidney-bladder meridian association and contributed to its disease process.

Initially, under the influence of Dr. Rau’s treatment, Raglan’s PSA climbed to 340, an interesting development on two accounts. First, he no longer had a prostate yet the prostate specific antigen was still active in the bones to which the prostate CANCER had spread. Second, Dr. Rau explains that as the hyperthermia kills CANCER cells, the net result is a temporary elevation of the PSA readings as these cells are flushed out of the CANCERous tissues and into the bloodstream.

When Raglan’s PSA eventually dropped to 24, Dr. Rau knew the metastatic CANCER process had been reversed. However, he emphasizes that “CANCER is never over.” Raglan was advised to change his lifestyle, adjust his diet, come to terms with his self-image, and not go back to his previous way of living and thinking. “CANCER only changes its character if you change your character,” says Dr. Rau.

Neural therapy uses localized injections of anesthetics, such as lidocaine or procaine, to remove interferences in the body’s electrical network and thus relieve chronic pain, reverse injury, and clear energy blockages. The anesthetics are injected into acupuncture points, scars, glands, the nerve bundles in the autonomic nervous system, and other tissues. By clearing the local site of blockage, neural therapy helps to regulate energy throughout the body.

Membrane potential refers to differing electrical charges, measured in millivolts (mV), inside and outside of a cell. This in turn influences how easily (or not) substances (nutrients or toxins) can pass into and out of a cell. Potassium ions are pumped out of the cell (at a resting potential of -80 mV), increasing the membrane potential (to +40 mV) then sodium ions are pumped in, restoring its normal value (-80 mV). The process, variously called ion pumping, ionic transport, or the ion channel, resembles the ebb and flow of tidal water, with nutrients “washing” in and toxins washing out with each pulse of the electrical current every 2-5 milliseconds.

Biological dentistry stresses the use of nontoxic restoration materials for dental work and focuses on the unrecognized impact that dental toxins and hidden dental infections can have on overall health. Typically, a biological dentist will emphasize the following: the safe removal of mercury amalgams; in many cases, either the avoidance or removal of root canals; the investigation of possible jawbone infections (cavitations) as a “dental focus” or source of bodywide illness centered in the teeth; and the health-injuring role of misalignment of teeth and jaw structures.

DMPS (2,3-dimercaptopropane-1-sulfonate) is the chelating (binding-up) agent of choice for the removal of elemental mercury from the human body. It can be given orally, intravenously, or intramuscularly, and is useful for people who have been exposed to mercury amalgam through their dental fillings, or for those who show evidence or suspicion of heavy metal toxicity from other sources.

hyperthermia: is effective because unlike normal tissue, tumors have poor blood flow relative to their metabolic needs and cannot dissipate the heat, so they tend to get hotter than the surrounding area. Rapidly dividing cells (i.e., CANCER cells) are more vulnerable to the effects of heat. Normally, part of the damage caused by radiation is repaired by the CANCER cells, enabling some to survive; however, heat foils this self-repair ability. Taken together, these facts tend to make tumors more vulnerable to heat treatment than normal tissues.

antigen: is any biological substance (a toxin, bacterium, amoeba, or protein) that the body comes to regard as foreign and dangerous. As such, an antigen induces a state of cellular sensitivity or immune reaction that seeks to neutralize, remove, or destroy the antigen by dispatching antibodies against it.

pH: which means "potential hydrogen," represents a scale for the relative acidity or alkalinity of a solution. Acidity is measured as a pH of 0.1 to 6.9, alkalinity is 7.1 to 14, and neutral pH is 7.0. The numbers refer to how many hydrogen atoms are present compared to an ideal or standard solution. Normally, blood is slightly alkaline, at 7.35 to 7.45; urine pH can range from 4.8 to 7.5, although normal is closer to 7.0.
