Glossary
Acid-alkaline-balance
For our metabolism to function, it has to maintain a certain acid-alkaline balance. Extreme acidity can lead to death. Our diet prominently influences the acid-alkaline balance; how much acid or alkaline-forming foods we eat.
Allopathy/allopathic
Use of nonhomeopathic remedies: the treatment of a disease by using remedies whose effects differ from those produced by that disease. This is the principle of mainstream medical practice, as opposed to that of homeopathy.
Alkaline
A term that describes a specific pH factor. The pH factor stands for a concentration of hydrogen ions. The more hydrogen ions present, the more acidic the condition. The pH scale reaches from 1 (= very acidic) to 14 (= very alkaline). Pure water has a pH value of around 7 and is neutral. Our blood has a pH value of 7.35 (also compare acid-alkaline balance).
Alternate/alternating
To reverse direction at regular intervals in a circuit.
Anomaly
The prefix a(n) stands for “not.” An anomaly is something ab-normal in a scientific sense, an irregularity.
Antagonism
Interference in or inhibition of the physiological action of a chemical substance by another having a similar structure.
Artesian spring
Water that surfaces on its own due to levitational forces.
Biochemistry
A branch of chemistry studying the chemical behavior in living beings. Biochemistry is not only interested in the individual chemical components but also their vital interplay.
Biophysics
The science of living physics. This form of physics applies physics knowledge to explain biological questions, such as the transmission of nervous impulses or muscle control. The boundaries to biochemistry are, in part, fluid, not solid.
Centrifugal
“Outward.” Describes an apparent force that acts outward on a body moving about a center.
Centripetal
“Inward.” Describes an apparent movement or tendency to move toward a center, inward from without.

Colon-hydrotherapy
A modern form of cleansing the colon; flushing it with warm water or sole solution.
Cluster
A chemical term describing hydrogen bridges between molecules.
Dehydrate
Losing water in the body, drying out. To absolutely or relatively lack water in the external or internal cellular space. In chemistry: to break apart hydrogen from its organic compounds.
Dipole
Chemical compounds with an unequally distributed electric charge, such as the water molecule: the oxygen atom is of a negative charge, and the two hydrogen atoms are positively charged. Dipolar molecules mutually attract each other. This is how water molecules connect into clusters via hydrogen bridges.
Disharmony
Opposite of harmony, “un-sound,” incoherent. The Latin prefix “dis” stands for “apart,” “gone.”
Dissonance
Occurs when vibrations of different wavelengths meet, which creates a state of chaos. Waves that vibrate the same length create resonance. Literally, dissonance means “un-sound.”
Diuretic
Tending to increase the secretion and discharge of urine.
Edema (oedema)
A condition characterized by an excess of watery fluid collecting in the cavities or tissues of the body.
Electrolyte
Ion needed by cell: an ion in cells, blood, or other organic material. Electrolytes help control fluid levels in the body, maintain normal pH levels, and ensure the correct electric potential between nerve cells that enable the transmission of nerve signals.

Electronic acupuncture
A painless measurement method to diagnose and therapeutically alleviate dysfunctions in the body. Reveals most negligible distortions of the organs. Allows for early diagnosis before a disease materializes. It measures the skin resistance to find out the acupuncture points’ energetic potentials, giving an accurate picture of the respective organ’s bio-energetic condition.
Enzymes
Proteins that enable certain biological functions. Enzymes are catalysts: they can accelerate processes in our body without changing their form. They are essential for various bodily functions, such as digestion and blood coagulation. The lack of certain enzymes can lead to health problems and unbalance the metabolism.
Entropy (physics)
A measure of disorganization or degradation in the universe that reduces available energy or the tendency of available energy to dwindle. Chaos, opposite of order.

Hertz
Measurement unit for vibrations or frequencies (a certain amount of vibration in a certain period of time). One Hertz (Hz) equals one oscillation per second. Light waves vibrate at several trillion Hertz. Sound waves, audible to the human ear, vibrate at a rate between 20 and 20.000 Hertz.
Hexagonal
A polygon having six angles and six sides.
Holistic
Considering a whole thing or being to be more than a collection of parts;
Treating the entire person rather than just the symptoms of a disease.
Homeopathy
Medicine developed by Samuel Hahnemann towards the end of the 18th century, based on the understanding that healing comes from within, from the body’s innate self-healing forces. These forces are stimulated by certain substances that would cause respective diseases if given in high doses, intending to heal an illness with equal significance.
Homeostasis
Natural regulatory mechanism of the organism. The body’s ability to maintain its perfect, natural balance (e.g., the circulatory system, its temperature, or its water and hormone balance). The hypothalamus is the central navigation system in the middle brain.
Hydrotherapy
Water application therapy was developed by Parson Kneipp, such as showers, baths, or wraps. The Greek term for water is “hydro.”
Implosive
Opposite of explosive. When forces condense towards the inside, they create energy directed inward, which reduces the volume and the temperature. This releases 127 times more energy than with an explosion.
Intestinal flora
The sum of all bacteria and fungi that live in the intestines. A healthy intestinal flora supports the breaking down of nutrients, trains the immune system in the intestines, fights off pathogens, and helps the body build the vitamin E and K.
An unbalanced intestinal flora (e.g., when there are too many fungi or too few beneficial bacteria) can lead to many health problems.
Ions/ ionized
Electrically charged atoms or atom groups. Ionization is when an electrically charged atom or atom group absorbs or releases a negatively charged electron. You can stimulate this reaction. Ionizers are used to decalcify or energize water.

Polarity/polar
The opposition between two poles, such as between negatively and positively charged poles or between “good” and “bad,” “yes” and “no.” Polar thinking is thinking in black and white instead of allowing a full spectrum of color.
Refined
Biophysical or chemical alteration of raw material. Regarding food, it means that components are removed to preserve them, destroying their holistic structure and energy/information/consciousness content.
Resonance
Literally means “to vibrate with.” From the perspective of physics, resonance happens when two systems vibrate within the same frequency range. When resonant waves meet, they create order.
In contrast, when two waves vibrating at different frequencies meet, they create chaos or dissonance.
Respiratory System
A system of organs subserving the function of respiration and in air-breathing vertebrates consisting typically of the lungs and their nervous and circulatory supply and the channels by which these are continuous with the outer air.
