Since the health of the individual is crucial to his or her survival, the body uses these three systems. It also provides a back-up or “fail safe” plan in the event one part fails. The back-up not only assists the individual parts, but allows these parts to assist other systems. We refer to this as “compensation.” In order to understand resistance and susceptibility, we need to be familiar with the system designed to protect us and prevent disease. This system is composed of three sequential parts: Identification: The Immune System carries out this process. Neutralization: The Detoxification System performs this task Elimination: The  Elimination System colon and kidneys work to remove toxins. In the face of such evidence, how can a diagnosis of toxicity be determined? First, the question of xenobiotics must be resolved. What specific toxins are there, where are they located, and to what extent are they affecting the body? Second is the overwhelming que...

Pediatric tooth decay is on the rise. Some research suggests that systemic causes—including radiation exposure, hormonal abnormalities, and foreign proteins in food—are to blame. Hypomineralization, caused mainly by a diet inadequate in minerals, increases a child’s susceptibility to decay. The systemic theory of decay suggests that other factors become relevant only after hypomineralization has begun. Tooth decay in children falls into distinct categories: ·          Baby teeth versus adult teeth ·          Anterior (front) vs. posterior (back) tooth patterns ·          Contract-lateral tooth patterns ·          Decay clustering ·          Post-eruption susceptibility Poor jaw development in children is generally caused not by genetics but by poor diet, mineral...

As a result of our unique identity, called “biological individuality,” each of us reacts differently to a toxic exposure. Those who remain unaffected are called resistant; those who are affected are termed susceptible. In order to understand resistance and susceptibility, we need to be familiar with the system designed to protect us and prevent disease.
