This Cutting Edge Health episode features Dr. med Ralf Oettmeier. The title “Dr. med” is commonly used in German-speaking countries in Europe, including Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. It’s equivalent to MD in the US.

Dr. Oettmeier is medical director of the Alpstein Clinic outside of Zurich. It’s at this clinic where they perform INUSpheresis, a cutting-edge detoxification therapy designed to remove waste from plasma. This technique removes environmental toxins, metals, microplastics, pesticides, and inflammatory agents from the blood via a specialized filtration system.

Dr. Oettmeier explains the holistic benefits of INUSpheresis for treating chronic illnesses, post-COVID syndrome, and as a preventive measure against cognitive decline, cancer, and heart disease. The therapy, unavailable in the U.S. due to FDA restrictions, complements traditional treatments like chelation but is gentler on the kidneys. Dr. Oettmeier highlights its effectiveness in improving health metrics.

This conversation with Dr. Oettmeier underscores the importance of addressing toxins for longevity. Learn how this innovative approach has the potential to help you take charge of your well-being and age gracefully.

Dr. med. Ralf Oettmeier is head physician and medical director of the Alpstein Clinic in Gais, Switzerland, an integrative medical practice.

Originally trained in conventional medicine at Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, Germany, Dr. Ralf, as he is called by his clients, acquired knowledge from various alternative forms of therapy over the years. He considers the Alpstein Clinic’s greatest strength to be successfully bringing together various disciplines of complementary medicine, such as homeopathy and acupuncture. Through the interaction of the individual disciplines, they achieve results that would otherwise never have been possible.

One of those therapies is INUSpheresis® where disease-promoting substances and environmental toxins are filtered from your blood. Dr. Oettmeier recently lectured on this at the 14th European Congress of Integrative Medicine.

Transcript with time code: https://cuttingedgehealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Transcript-Dr-Paul-Savage-Part-2-What-toxins-are-the-worst-and-how-to-combat-them.docx-Google-Docs.pdf

In this episode of the Cutting Edge Health Preventing Cognitive Decline Podcast, host Jane Rogers welcomes back Dr. Paul Savage for part two of their discussion on the critical role toxins play in cognitive health and overall well-being. Dr. Savage explains how the increasing prevalence of environmental toxins—from pesticides to heavy metals—has created unprecedented health challenges, driving chronic inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

The conversation delves into plasma apheresis, a cutting-edge detoxification process that removes toxins directly from the bloodstream. Dr. Savage shares compelling anecdotes, including a case where detoxification significantly improved a patient's health and even supported a successful pregnancy. He emphasizes the importance of toxin avoidance, advocating for actionable steps such as high-quality water filters, toxin-free cosmetics, and dietary adjustments.

The discussion also highlights the limitations of traditional detox methods like saunas and chelation, which are only partially effective, and how plasma apheresis offers a more comprehensive solution. For those concerned about cognitive decline, Dr. Savage underscores the connection between toxins, inflammation, and brain health, pointing to his clinic's innovative protocols that have shown measurable improvements in patients' cognitive function.

This thought-provoking episode encourages listeners to take proactive steps toward detoxification and health restoration.

********

At 37 years old, Dr. Paul Savage was a successful ER/trauma physician. But he was unhealthy, weighed 270 pounds, smoked cigarettes, was tired, anxious, and unwell, and had high cholesterol, high blood pressure, pre-diabetes, and stress.

Rejecting the conventional approach of more medications, his curiosity and determination led him to explore various treatments and lifestyle changes—and transform his life and career through precision medicine.

Twenty-five years later, he’s an advocate for combining traditional and integrative medicine, focusing on an evidence-based approach that treats patients as partners. Dr. Savage embraces a continuous pursuit of knowledge and integration of the latest medical advancements into his practice, with several board certifications, including certifications from the Stem Cell Fellowship, Integrative Metabolic Medicine, and the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. Not to mention he built over 50 clinics across the United States and literally wrote the code for the industry standard software that has helped millions of patients.

Dr. Savage is now the founder and CEO of Chicago based MDLifespan. He has more MDLifespan clinics set to open soon around the US. His latest endeavor of the patented PlasmaXchangeTM protocol is the culmination of years of expertise — it's poised to be the defining moment of his career, a transformative movement that will reshape the future of medicine as we know it.
