September 2022Die Natur-Docs – Meine besten Heilmittel für Gelenke. Arthrose, Rheuma und Schmerzen
Vom Autor des Bestsellers »Heilen mit der Kraft der Natur« | SPIEGEL-Bestseller
by Prof. Dr. Andreas Michalsen
Immer mehr Menschen leiden weltweit unter Gelenkerkrankungen. Knie-, Hüft-, Finger- und Schulterarthrose sind Volksleiden geworden und auch die rheumatischen Entzündungen sind auf dem Vormarsch. Die Schulmedizin hat in der Behandlung der Gelenkerkrankungen zahlreiche Fortschritte erzielt, aber meist nur auf dem Gebiet der Operationen, die häufg nicht notwendig wären, und der Medikamente, die oft mit Nebenwirkungen behaftet sind. Viel zu wenig beachtet und genutzt werden die vielfältigen Verfahren der Naturheilkunde bei Arthrose, Rheuma und Gelenkschmerzen, die oft als Folge unseres modernen Lebensstils auftreten: Bewegungsmangel, Ernährung, Stress, Übergewicht. Das Spektrum der naturheilkundlichen Behandlungsmethoden ist überraschend breit: von Heilfasten, Yoga, speziellen Gelenkübungstechniken, Heilpflanzentherapie, Kneipp-Therapie bis zu Akupunktur, Ayurveda, Blutegeln und Schröpfen. Andreas Michalsen, Chefarzt für Naturheilkunde am Immanuel Krankenhaus Berlin und Professor der Charité Berlin, beschreibt die Vor- und Nachteile schulmedizinischer und naturheilkundlicher Behandlung und empfiehlt in detaillierten Übersichten die besten Therapien der Naturheilkunde bei Gelenkerkrankungen.

April 2017Heilen mit der Kraft der Natur
Meine Erfahrung aus Praxis und Forschung – Was wirklich hilft
by Prof. Dr. Andreas Michalsen, Friedrich-Karl Sandmann, Dr. Petra Thorbrietz
Die Schulmedizin grenzt die Naturheilkunde noch immer aus, dabei hat sich unsere Gesellschaft längst entschieden: Denn zwei Drittel aller Patienten wollen naturheilkundlich behandelt werden. Das seien doch Hausmittelchen, ohne wissenschaftliche Basis, glauben viele Ärzte. »Falsch«, sagt Andreas Michalsen, Professor an der Charité Berlin: »Die moderne Naturheilkunde ist wissenschaftlich fundiert, und sie ist die einzige Antwort auf die steigende Zahl chronischer Leiden.« In den USA wird die naturheilkundliche Medizin mit 250 Millionen Dollar jährlich staatlich unterstützt, in Deutschland ist Andreas Michalsen einer der Pioniere, die tradiertes Heilwissen und modernste Forschung auf innovative Weise miteinander verbinden. Massive Nebenwirkungen und mangelndes Vertrauen – die Medikamenten-Medizin steckt in einer Sackgasse. Immer mehr Forscher interessieren sich deshalb für die Wirkprinzipien traditioneller Heilverfahren. Der Professor für Klinische Naturheilkunde und Chefarzt am Immanuel Krankenhaus in Berlin erzählt, warum er den konventionellen Pfad der Medizin verlassen hat und welches Potenzial der Natur er mit seinen Patienten täglich neu entdeckt.

March 2024Ernährung. Meine Quintessenz
Garantiert länger leben. Gesund und kraftvoll bleiben
by Andreas Michalsen, Friedrich-Karl Sandmann, Udo Ludwig
Professor Andreas Michalsen ist einer der profiliertesten Ärzte Deutschlands, er genießt international höchstes Ansehen und ist einer der renommiertesten Wissenschaftler auf dem Gebiet der Ernährungsmedizin. Nach mehreren Bestsellern hat der Berliner Mediziner jetzt die Quintessenzen der neusten wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisse zusammengefügt. Michalsen klärt darüber auf, wie wir allein mit guter Ernährung gesund, vital und kraftvoll leben können. Was und wie wir essen sollten, um viel länger zu leben, als wir bisher angenommen haben. Er räumt auf mit den großen Mythen um die Diäten, das Fett, das Salz und die Milch. Michalsen macht deutlich, was wir über die Pillen zur Langlebigkeit, über Superfood und die Abnehmspritze wissen sollten. Aus seinem Alltag im Krankenhaus schildert er, in welchen Fällen uns das Essen krank machen kann und wo die Gefahren für unsere Gesundheit lauern. Michalsen nimmt uns mit auf eine Reise durch unseren Körper. Er beschreibt, warum die Leber so unverzichtbar für uns ist. Wie aus dem Darm heraus die Energie entsteht und wie das System der Verdauung eng mit unserem Gehirn verzahnt ist. Wenn Sie mehr über diese Phänomene Ihres Körpers wissen und die Geheimnisse unserer Lebensmittel kennen, schützen Sie sich vor Übergewicht und vor chronischen Krankheiten, vor Krebs und Demenz. Sie werden mit Sicherheit länger leben. Und Sie können damit auch noch helfen, das Klima zu retten.

2020Amino Acids in Prevention and Treatment
A selection for clinical practice
by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Klaus Kisters
In contrast to vitamins and minerals, for a long time, science paid only scant attention to amino acids, but this all changed when scientists Robert F. Furchgott, Louis J. Ignarro and Ferid Murad received the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1998 for their work on amino acids. Pharmacist Uwe Gröber, Head of the Academy for Micronutrient Medicine in Essen and Prof. Klaus Kisters, MD, Head of the Department of Medicine at St Anna Hospital in Herne – both experts in micronutrient medicine – have reviewed the subject and explain clearly and in practical terms: ■ The importance of individual amino acids for our health ■ How they are optimally used in combination with vitamins, minerals and trace elements ■ Which diseases can be positively influenced in this way. ■ Effects on colds and influenza, cold sores, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, ADHD as well as stress and burnout are examined in more detail. A further chapter is devoted to amino acids and their use in sportsmen and -women.

Prescriptions for children in paediatric practice
by Edited by Dr. Andreas S. Ziegler, Nadine Metzger and Prof. Dr. Dagmar Fischer. In collaboration with Prof. Dr. Peter Langguth, Dr. Stefan Seyferth and Dr. Norbert Ohem
When children are ill, there is often a lack of suitable proprietary medicines. With experience and expertise, pharmacies close this gap. In the process, they are often confronted with complex questions before preparing a medicine: Is the dosage right? Which dosage form will be accepted by the child? How do I process the active ingredient in a child-friendly way? Which excipients are suitable? Formularium paediatricum provides answers to these and numerous other questions: ■ 70 monographs on tested standard formulations describe the preparation process step-by-step and explain paediatric specifics in terms of formulation. ■ an annotated list of common paediatric excipients as well as comprehensive explanations for evaluating children‘s formulations help to assess unknown, non-standardised formulations. Whenever it is a case of extemporaneous medicines for children: the Formularium paediatricum assists in the preparation in the pharmacy to succeed safely and confidently.

2024The second half of your life - a manual
Tips and strategies for successful ageing
by Dr. Petra Kiedaisch
In the middle of our lives, the cards are reshuffled: marriages are divorced, careers are questioned, friendships are ended, questions of meaning are asked, bodies change - and not just hormonally. At the same time, children leave home and parents become carers. From the age of 45, the majority of our population is at the centre of a second upheaval that affects all facets of our lives and leaves us at a loss in many ways. Not only in our daily lives, but also when it comes to planning for our own old age. This guide is designed to help us find our way. It presents the most important information from all areas relevant to a good life after 45. Leading experts from the fields of medicine, nutrition, philosophy, theology, psychology, care, law and finance give recommendations on what to look out for and what tools are needed to get through these challenging years unscathed. Useful checklists round off the articles. The book shows us the unique opportunity to see these challenges not as a crisis but as a source of strength. Not only can we come through this period of our lives healthy and happy, but we can also shape it so that the next age threshold is no longer frightening. During the second phase of adolescence, we lay the foundations for whether and how we will grow older. Be it in terms of health or living together with family and friends. With contributions from: Prof. Dr. Martin Gessmann (philosophy), Dipl. Psych. Claudia Kühner (psychology), Dr Suso Lederle (medicine), Dr Petra Forster (nutrition), Christian Hald, Anja Heine (law), Prof Dr Philipp Schreiber (finance), Prof Dr Thomas Klie (nursing care insurance), Georg Eberhardt (religion).

2023Textbook of Korean Medicine
Medicinal drugs and formulations
by Dr. Kenny Kuchta, Prof. Dr. Hans Wilhelm Rauwald, Hans Rausch and Dr. Raimund Royer
The consistent and evidence-based development of Korean medicine in many clinical application areas has significantly improved its international status in recent years. The basis for this development is one of the most important medical books in Korea, the „Donguibogam“, a clinical lexicon of applications compiled about 400 years ago; at that time the traditional work also enjoyed the highest recognition in China. In 2009 it was included in the „Memory of the World“ register of UNESCO. Even now after 400 years, it still serves as a manual for writing prescriptions for many physicians in Korea, and testifies that the understanding of nature and human disease patterns is still current and clinically applicable even in the modern industrialised world. This work provides ■ understanding for Korean medicine, ■ many selected medicinal formulations and their fields of application, ■ the description and evaluation of important traditional single remedies, ■ the corresponding drug monographs with information on analytical testing

Cannabis has been used as a drug since antiquity – but only recently has it progressed to become one of the most exciting medical-pharmaceutical topics of our times. In scarcely any other area of pharmacotherapy has the state of knowledge recently developed at comparable speed. Experts from a variety of fields are constantly working to generate new scientific evidence for the therapeutic use of cannabis and/or cannabinoids and to provide patients with quality-assured medicinal cannabis. This book is the first to give representatives of all relevant areas of expertise the chance to speak. Alongside medical-therapeutic aspects, they address such questions as cultivation, quality assurance, patient care practices and patient counselling. The result of this accumulated knowledge and skill is a unique overall picture that, for the first time, combines and consolidates the current legal and scientific framework of medicinal cannabis provision! All facts have been painstakingly researched and checked. The result is a scientifically valid work, which sets the standard. This excellent compendium is indispensable for everyone who comes into contact with cannabis for professional or personal reasons.

2024Intoxicating Drugs
Known and new psychoactive substances
by Prof. Dr. Niels Eckstein
Intoxicating? Intoxicating drugs are as old as mankind itself. Whether herbal or produced synthetically in a laboratory, their variety is almost limitless. And every year, more substances are added to the list. Niels Eckstein, who is a Professor of Drug Regulatory Affairs and Pharmacology and a long-standing expert in the narcotics scene, explores the abysses of the darknet and dealer hell, provides insider information, conducts interviews with dealers and producers, and offers profound insights into the bizarre, parallel world of intoxicating substances. At the same time, the author takes a thorough look at the chemistry of the different substance classes and the neurobiological basis of addiction. He also covers production and assesses the danger and addiction potential of designer drugs, BTM, NPS, medicinal drugs and doping substances. This book outlines the political and sociopolitical dimensions of the use of psychoactive substances, classifies them legally, describes risks, approaches, and help strategies, highlights routes out of drug problems and alternatives to drug prohibition, and comments on the opioid crisis in the United States and the „war on drugs.“ “I don‘t care how it‘s regulated: if he wants it and can pay for it, he gets it. If I get caught, I‘ll go to jail for a few years, whether it‘s for a kilo of coke, meph or testo, it doesn‘t matter.“ – In an interview with a dealer

2022Drugs as Micronutrient Robbers
What your doctor and pharmacist ought to tell you
by Uwe Gröber and Prof. Dr. Klaus Kisters
Many of us have to take drugs on a regular basis. But birth control pills, antibiotics, blood pressure medication, statins, diabetes medication, diuretics, anti-cancer drugs, gastrointestinal remedies or preparations against osteoporosis can all rob the body of essential vitamins and minerals. Often, drug-related micronutrient deficiency is the unrecognized cause of drug side effects. Symptoms such as exhaustion, depression, lack of concentration, irritability, sleep disorders or even dementia can result. Such problems can be prevented. Informed patients can take preventive measures, avoid unwanted side effects and make their drug therapy more effective. This guide explains what to watch out for and how to improve quality of life.
