BTM & Heavy Metal Detox
The following information is an overview on Heavy Metal Toxicity and gives a conservative view of the problem.

In short when heavy metals enter the body, they bind with proteins and alter the enzymatic reaction within cells. (This also causes the excretion of certain important minerals including magnesium, selenium, and zinc.) There are over 35 metals that may cause Heavy Metal Toxicity, but the most common are mercury, lead, cadmium, and arsenic.
Symptoms
Currently, the symptoms known to be associated with Heavy Metal Toxicity include:
- Chronic Pain – Throughout the muscles and tendons or any soft tissues of the body
- Malaise – General feeling of discomfort and illness
- Brain Fog – A state of forgetfulness and confusion
- Compromised Immune Systems – The inability to produce “fighter cells” within the body resulting in a weakened defense system
- Severe Neurological Disorders – Dizziness, migraines, headaches, visual disorder and other psychiatric and psychological disorders
- Nervous System Malfunctions – Burning extremities, numbness, tingling, and an electrifying feeling throughout the body
Related Conditions
- Allergies – Much more than just itchy eyes and stuffed up nose; allergies can include severe symptoms such as vomiting, narrowing of the esophagus, heart palpitations, hives, joint and muscle pain, and chronic explosive diarrhea.
- Anxiety – A mental health disorder believed to affect about 15% of the adults in the United States. Anxiety is supposedly more common than any other category of mental health disorders.
- Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) – Commonly found in children, and less frequently in adults, this condition is marked by an inability to pay attention and stay “on task.”
- Alzheimer’s – A progressive brain disorder that gradually destroys memory, impairs judgment, reasoning and thought, produces personality and behavioral changes, and hinders daily functioning. It is the most common form of dementia among the elderly.
- Multiple Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) – An autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. A fatty tissue called myelin helps nerve fibers conduct electrical impulses. In MS, myelin is damaged and/or lost, which destroys the nerves’ ability to conduct electrical impulses to and from the brain, and leads to a host of neurological symptoms that come and go (relapses).
- Nervous System Malfunctions – Burning extremities, numbness, tingling, and an electrifying feeling throughout the body
- Autism – A complex developmental disorder that appears in the first three years of life, although it is sometimes diagnosed much later. It affects the brain's normal development of social and communication skills. Recent scientific research is now pointing to heavy metal toxicity as a possible cause.
- Candida (Candidiasis) – An infection or overgrowth of candida yeast in the body. Candida yeast inhabits all areas of the body and in the intestine, it co-exists with friendly intestinal bacteria such as Bifidobacteria bifidum and Lactobacillus acidophilus. However, when the immune system is compromised, candida yeast can rapidly overwhelm the friendly bacteria and cause an imbalance. As candida becomes the predominant organism in the intestinal tract, it secretes a multitude of toxins which can produce debilitating symptoms that may be realized beyond the digestive tract.
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome – A complicated disorder characterized by severe fatigue that does not improve with bed rest and may worsen with physical or mental activity. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome distresses both the body and the brain, affecting concentration, short-term memory, and sleep. CFS is also associated with flu-like symptoms, joint and muscle pain, and tender lymph nodes. The symptoms generally continue unabated, leaving the body depleted of energy and the ability to defend itself against other conditions.
- Depression – A disorder affecting the body, mood, and thoughts of those who suffer from it. This illness involves more than just a fleeting mood of unhappiness. Without treatment, the symptoms can continue for years and produce devastating results.
- Dyslexia – A learning disorder marked by impairment of the ability to recognize and comprehend written words.
- Fibromyalgia – A condition characterized by fatigue, chronic pain in the muscles, joints and soft tissues of the body, and tenderness at specific sites in the body. All muscles, tendons, and ligaments feel as though they are overworked with a twitching and burning feeling.
- Parkinson’s Disease – A progressive nervous disease occuring most often after the age of 50, associated with the destruction of brain cells that produce dopamine and characterized by muscular tremor, slowing of movement, partial facial paralysis, peculiarity of gait and posture, and weakness. Also called paralysis agitans, shaking palsy.
Biological Terrain Management (BTM)
BTM is a two phase process.
In the clinic lab., measurements of a patient’s urine and saliva chemistries (pH, conductivity, sugars, nitrate and ammonium). Takes 5-7 minutes.
Entering these values into a software program that determines the patients remedy, therapy and food needs to return those values to optimal. The database used is based on “Ingestion Testing”: taking urine and saliva before and after the intervention and calculating the direction of change.
BTM is based on the concept of the Terrain.
What is the TERRAIN?
Our body is regulated by very weak electrical signals. For example, our blood can flow smoothly when there is a negative charge on the red blood cell membrane that prevents it from sticking to its neighbour. Nerve impulses are electrical in nature. The biochemistry of our body fluids influences these electrical circuits, similar to a battery, and the circuits in turn control the fluids. Deeper, and holding this relationship together, is the “Photon Grid” described by Dr. Fritz Popp: frequencies of light that tell our DNA what to do.
When heavy metals, which are extremely conductive, are added to this picture a chaos of short circuits is created. Again similar to a battery, during the acute phase of toxicity there is a strong reaction to the short circuit. With time, the battery wears out and dies.
Different scientists have described the Terrain from their point of view: Bechamp, Morel, Vincent, Pissinger, Reams.
Without Vincent and Reams we would not know what optimal human values were. They did their measurements before the massive influx of toxins into our world.
Without Dr. Klinghardt we would not know to look for Heavy Metal & Chemical toxicity as the causal factors in the onset of chronic degenerative diseases. Neither Vincent nor Reams addressed these issues. If the Terrain is electrically compromised, any disease can result.
BTM shows the deviation from optimal values on the Vincent Bio-Electronogram.

| Biogram 1: SRVs Body Burden |
Biogram 2: ULVs Metabolic Efficiency |
Biogram3: Psyche Psyche |
Optimal values are represented as the center point of the Biogram, and termed Zero Need. The bigger the shape, the greater the deviation from optimal.
