In thymus therapy, extracts from the thymus gland are administered through multiple injections. The injections are formulated to mimic the performance of a healthy young person's thymus gland to a large extent.
The strengthening of the immune system begins after a few weeks. The healing of many existing diseases is then facilitated and accelerated, while the progression of chronic conditions is often slowed down. Once the immune system is restored, it will continue to function effectively for an extended period.
Through the reinforcement of the immune system, this form of thymus therapy has demonstrated not only a significant reduction in susceptibility to infectious diseases but also positive effects on the progression of existing chronic conditions such as Lyme disease, cancer, and inflammatory rheumatism.
Indications for thymus therapy arise in cases of known susceptibility to infections, existing chronic infections (such as Lyme disease), after prolonged antibiotic therapy, in cases of familial predisposition to cancer, and even in the presence of an existing cancerous condition, as well as for complications arising from chemotherapy and radiation, and inflammatory rheumatic diseases.
Prophylactic use of thymus therapy due to the decline in immune function with advancing age (starting from the age of 45) is also possible. However, thymus therapy is also recommended prior to other immunostimulating treatments, such as with echinacea or mistletoe preparations, for the prior normalization of the immune system and to enhance their effectiveness.
