Bioresonance According to Paul Schmidt (BaPS) and its Beneficial Effects on the Integrity of the Intestinal Barrier in vitro
Author(s): Peter C. Dartsch* and Dietmar Heimes
The intestinal epithelium, which is only one cell layer thick, has two essential tasks. The first is to create a physical barrier between the contents of the intestinal lumen and the rest of our body. The second is to ensure an efficient absorption of essential nutrients from the gut lumen and to produce mucus, anti-microbial peptides and cytokines with both protective and immune-regulatory properties. Thus, a reduced barrier function may have consequences, not only for intestinal, but also for systemic health. In this study we investigated whether the use of a Mini-Rayonex device, which has been developed to emit a bioresonance frequency spectrum according to Paul Schmidt (BaPS), might be able to promote and maintain the integrity of the intestinal barrier. Intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2) were cultivated on microporous transwell plates to build up an intestinal barrier after ex.. Read More»
