Stress is not a force of nature - How to reclaim your freedom, step by step

Stress is not a force of nature

"You have too much stress."

That's what my dentist said to me when I was being treated for my CMD problems. And my spontaneous answer was one that many people would probably give:

"Yes, what am I supposed to do - I have the stress."

But his next sentence stuck in my head. He just said calmly:

Detox without side effects? My experience report with humic acids

Humic acids for gentle detoxification

There are remedies that you only find out about much later than would actually have been good. That was the case for me with humic acids. In the early 2000s, I still had some amalgam fillings, which I had replaced with more modern fillings. Back in the 1980s, this was quite normal - you went to the dentist, got a silver seal and that was that. Nobody talked about heavy metals, mercury or detoxification. At least not in the dentist's surgery.

What does the tension in Germany mean - and what would the specific consequences be?

Tension case-Germany-2025

In times of increasing international tensions, a term keeps cropping up in political debates that many citizens hardly know how to categorize: the "State of tension". But what does it mean in concrete terms when this case is established in Germany? And how does the case of tension differ from the better-known case of defense, which is usually associated with an actual war? In order to be able to correctly assess the possible consequences, it is worth taking a sober look at the constitutional situation.

Dental cleaning - sensible or excessive? A differentiated view

Dental cleaning - how often does it make sense?

Professional dental cleanings are now considered a standard recommendation - it is often suggested that they should be carried out every 6 months or even every 3 months. Those who can afford it (or have good supplementary dental insurance) are often praised. But how useful is it really? The answer, as so often, is: it depends.

Lithium: The forgotten trace element? A look at microdosing

Lithium orotate in microdosage

When you hear the word lithium, many people first think of modern rechargeable batteries, battery technology or - with a skeptical eye - psychotropic drugs. But lithium is actually much more than that: it is a naturally occurring trace element that has been present in our environment since time immemorial - in rocks, in water and also in small quantities in plant-based foods.

Dental health and TMD - more than just a little bit. What does the future hold?

CMD, dental health and future technologies

Hardly any other part of the body is as complex and at the same time as underestimated as the jaw. It is not only responsible for enabling us to chew, speak and swallow - it is also part of a finely tuned system of muscles, tendons, joints and nerves that affects the spine and even the feet. If this system is out of sync, it can have far-reaching consequences - for the entire musculoskeletal system, for the nerve pathways and ultimately for a person's well-being. In the medical world, this is referred to as a Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD).

My personal experience with MUCOKEHL-D3 for hemorrhoids

MUCOKEHL D3 Ointment

I have been working intensively on the subject of hemorrhoids for more than ten years - unfortunately not out of theoretical interest, but from my own experience. During this time, I have already undergone two operations: a THD method (transanal haemorrhoid desarterialization) and a laser treatment. Both procedures helped temporarily, but the symptoms always returned over time.
