In einem kürzlich erschienenen Artikel auf ABCnews.com wurde berichtet, dass „…..Viele der inneren Prozesse unseres Körpers sind zyklisch. Es gibt tägliche Muster, wie Wachen und Schlafen, monatliche Muster, wie der Menstruationszyklus einer Frau und sogar saisonale Muster, wie die, die in den Wintermonaten eine saisonal-affektive Störung (SAD) verursachen. Aber Ärzte beginnen erst seit kurzem, die Auswirkungen dieser Rhythmen auf andere Erkrankungen gut genug zu verstehen, um ihre Patienten effektiver behandeln zu können.

In a recently published article on Abcnews.com, it was reported that "... .. many of the inner processes of our body are cyclical. There are daily patterns, such as guards and sleeping, monthly patterns, such as the menstrual cycle of a woman and even seasonal patterns, such as those that cause a seasonal-affective disorder (SAD) in the winter months. But doctors have only recently started. To understand rhythms on other diseases to be able to treat their patients more effectively.

According to Dr. Michael Smolensky, co-author of the book The Body Clock Guide to Better Health: "If cancer medication are administered in a chronobiological way, patients may be able to tolerate higher, stronger doses than would otherwise be possible."

Keith Block, DR Block, which is also a medical and scientific director of the Block Center for Integrative Cancer Care and Optimal Health in Evanston, Illinois. "In contrast to the evening, as recommended in the ABC News between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. Chemotherapy caused weakening patients to reduce or even cancel treatments that could otherwise help them win their fight.

At Randy Lopez, advanced colon cancer was diagnosed at the age of 35. In the struggle for his life, he underwent chemotherapy that left him weak and weakened. In less than a year he received further devastating news - the cancer had formed metastases in his liver. The forecast was dark. In fact, Lopez and his doctors believed that time was running away. After working with Dr. Block and chronotherapy are Lopez, now 42, cancer -free. He will take part in the national meeting of the Colon Cancer Alliance (CCA) in New York on September 30, where Dr. Block before the CCA will speak and explain that the timing was literally the key to its successful recovery, although the time was not on Randy's side.

One of the main problems in this type of treatment was logistics - to find out how chemotherapy can be administered in precisely defined doses. Dr. Block has brought a technology to the United States that gives chemotherapy through a pump that is designed in such a way that it precisely tapes up to four infusion channels precisely to the individual needs of a patient. Thanks to the high portability and the small size that fits in a belt pocket, patients can keep their full mobility, do sports and sleep through a whole night - while they get their specially coordinated cancer therapy.
