Rudolf Breuss

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rudolf Breuss (born June 24, 1899 ; † May 17, 1990 ) was an Austrian electrician and naturopath from Bludenz , who became known for a Breuss massage and a Breuss cancer diet named after him . His methods lack any scientific basis, his cancer diet is not only classified by medicine as ineffective, but even as harmful to health.

Breuss diet (Breuss cure)

The Breuss diet (“total cancer cure”) is a variant of fasting that is partly based on the medieval humoral pathology , the Buchinger fast and on elements of Kneipp's teaching and his own experiences.

Breuss particularly recommended his diet to people with cancer; his idea was a selective starvation of cancer cells through his diet. He was convinced that cancer cells only need solid food and, therefore, not eating solid food could cure cancer. As part of the Breuss diet may 42 days long not be eaten, a maximum of 500 ml vegetable juices and herbal teas in addition are instead carefully insalivated and ritual excessively drunk in small sips. He recommended a mixture of freshly squeezed red and yellow beets, radish, celery and potatoes as juices.

According to Breuss, chemotherapy , medication or radiation should not be given during this cancer cure , as otherwise there would be no success or it would be delayed. Cancer treatment should not be carried out in the first few months after an operation. The cancer cure remains unsuccessful in the case of smokers and irradiated sleeping places.

There are various reports on the Internet that cancer patients have been cured after using the cure.

Breuss massage

The Breuss massage is intended to help people with back problems. It is an energetic massage of the back along the spine with special attention to the meridians with St. John's wort oil and then a layer of paper. The spine should be stretched, giving the intervertebral discs more space and stimulating them to regenerate. In addition, St. John's wort oil has a calming effect on the nerves. This massage is performed gently, slowly and with relatively little pressure and leads to an unusually deep and immediate relaxation. The Breuss massage can be used in addition to the Dorn Therapy or alternatively to the Dorn method for sensitive people and for disc damage.

criticism

The Breuss diet recommendations are not part of modern medicine. There is no independent evidence to support his view that starving and not eating solid foods can cure cancer. There are no scientific studies on the Breuss cure. A prolonged starvation diet can lead to an additional weakening of the body's immune system. The Breuss diet is not a balanced diet. Like the Gerson diet, it can lead to life-threatening inanition (emaciation) in people with cancer .

The Austrian Cancer Society judged his diet: "This absurd diet shows no healing results, but accelerates death".

The Freiburg Tumor Center at the University Hospital also rated Breuss's diet recommendations consistently negative. The Tumor Center wrote in its patient guide “ Complementary Procedures ” from January 2006: ' The “total cancer cure” according to Breuss can be dangerous, as this fasting cure leads to significant malnutrition and thus an additional weakening of the body's defenses . While fasting may reduce tumor growth, if a normal diet is resumed, cancer growth may even accelerate! ′

Overall, the Freiburg Tumor Center comes to the following conclusion:

Quotes from Rudolf Breuss

“Cancer lives only on solid foods that humans eat. So if you only drink vegetable juice + tea for 42 days, the cancerous tumor dies, but humans can still live well. "

“With the juice cure, the protein supply from the outside is stopped, that is, the protein is switched off in daily food. But since the organism cannot live without this substance, the protein-hungry blood gnaws at everything superfluous, growths, accumulations of waste products and tumors. This is an operation without a knife ... "

“My juice mixture: You take 3/5 beets (beetroot = beetroot), 1/5 yellow beets (carrots, carrots), 1/5 celery bulbs plus a little radish and a potato the size of a hen's egg. An example. You take 300g red beets, 100g yellow beets and 100g celery bulbs and about 30g radish. The potato does not necessarily have to be there, but the potato is very important in liver cancer. "
