I was talking to someone the other day about "rejuvenation". He goes to donate blood several times a year to keep his "iron level" in the blood in the lower range. He thinks that this is important for the ageing process.
"Iron value"! There is a connection with Parkinson's! My iron levels are in the upper range, so I'm going to have several Eagle's Lips over the next few months to lower my iron levels.
What do you think?
Here is how the naturopath I go to describes bloodletting:
Bloodletting
Bloodletting belongs to the ancient therapeutic heritage of all cultures. Until the 18th century it was still taught in universities. The old doctors spoke of sluggish or dirty blood. This was considered to be the cause of various diseases such as gout, obesity, rheumatism, stroke and venous disorders. Today we talk about slagging and hyperacidity. The diseases are the same.
Due to today's lifestyle, the hematocrit value (which determines the blood's ability to flow) is usually above 43% by volume. This means that the blood is too thick. It comes to the formation of money rolls. This means that the erythrocytes stick together and can no longer absorb oxygen. A value below 40 % by volume would be optimal for both sexes.
After phlebotomy, there is a thinning effect in the blood, resulting in better microcirculation in the blood vessels and more oxygen in the body. It therefore has a blood-thinning, blood-purifying, decongesting and detoxifying effect.
Bloodletting should always take place up to one week after the full moon.
When the moon increases in its fullness, the blood in the human being also increases, and when the moon decreases, the blood in the human being also decreases.
