Testimonials for Biotherapeutic "Drainage" and Conventional Naturopathic Detoxification

Printer-friendly version

Mary loves UNDA numbers for improving her kidney and liver function...

With the UNDAs for liver and kidneys, Mary can urinate and defecate more frequently throughout the day, helping her feel better overall. Without the UNDAs, she does not urinate enough (she urinates, but in very small amounts), her abdomen feels uncomfortable, and she becomes constipated.

Note that most cases of constipation are due to poor liver function. Therefore, as you detoxify or "drain" the liver, one should experience relief from constipation.

UNDA #1 and Juniperous gemmo help the liver and overall health...

Here, Ilene is sharing with us how taking UNDA #1 appears to be helping with her liver/gall bladder function, as manifested by improvement in pain over liver/gall bladder area within minutes of taking this natural medicine. She also speaks briefly about how taking Juniperous gemmotherapy seems to help her feel better overall. (Note: Please do NOT take these medicines without a prescription from your naturopathic doctor as they may cause side effects if improperly chosen and dosed.)

Biotherapeutic drainage/detoxification is often what is missing in a person's treatment plan...

Carolyn has advanced sarcoidosis, a very serious autoimmune condition that can negatively impact the health of many of our internal organs/tissues, including heart, lungs, eyes, and skin. Prior to seeing me, Carolyn had tried numerous other therapies, including pharmaceutical medications and even natural supplements. However, she continued to feel very ill overall. At her first visit, I offered her 3 main therapies: First, application of castor oil on her entire abdomen, covering the liver area. Second, an UNDA number to help with liver function (i.e. to “drain” or detoxify the liver). Third, an UNDA number to help with kidney function (i.e. to “drain” or detoxify the kidneys.) As you can see here, in a matter of weeks, she has had numerous improvements in just about every part of her body by getting these toxins out of her primary organs of elimination, intestines, liver and kidneys. I see dramatic improvements in most of my patients by simply starting this basic protocol. Note: The choice and the dosing of the therapies is very critical. I would advise against starting these therapies on your own without the supervision of a naturopathic doctor who is versed in Biotherapeutic Drainage (i.e. UNDA numbers, Gemmotherapies and Gammadyns/Oligotherapies ) and detoxification. Unfortunately, Biotherapeutic Drainage has not yet worked its way well into the field of naturopathic medicine in North America, and continues to be on the fringes of naturopathy, let alone conventional medicine. In contrast, these therapies are utilized by many medical doctors in Europe.

UNDAs can help alleviate severe menstrual cramps...

Kailee shares with us how taking an UNDA number prior to her menstrual period entirely alleviated her menstrual cramps. She has a long history of severe menstrual cramps. She even had to take Vicadin to help with her cramps.

Gemmotherapies can help alleviate menopausal symptoms very effectively

Menopausal symptoms are often nicely alleviated with a good liver detoxification/cleansing protocol. (Refer to the blog, “What’s missing in most menopausal women’s prescription is liver cleansing and water!”) Terri has tried different natural medicines to help detoxify her liver, but she has been more satisfied with Gemmotherapy Rosmarinus than any other liver detoxification medicine. Gemmotherapies/gemmos are the most powerful form of herbal extraction, and are used in Biotherapeutic Drainage for various purposes, including optimization of organ function. They are much stronger than other forms of herbal preparation including tinctures, pills, or teas.

Kidney disease (Papillary necrosis) and Biotherapeutic Drainage

Dr. Sharif,

The treatment that you have me on for Papillary Necrosis of the kidneys and lesion on the liver has been a God send for me.

I was deionised about 2 years ago. I was having blood in my urine. It was also very painful to empty my bladder. Within a 2 week period of having a meeting with you and getting started on your program, I had total relief from bladder pain. And in 6 months, my blood and urine work-up had improved into almost a normal range.

The kidney specialist would only recommend a diet to stay on and nothing else. He only wanted me to have scans done ever so often, and did not have anything else to offer. After my meeting with you which took well over an hour, and answering my many questions, you offered me a workable plan that sounded right which has obviously worked.

After a number of months of being on your treatment protocol, hoping all was healed, I cut down the therapies by half (once daily as opposed to twice daily). However, considering all the stress I was under, it turned out that was not a good idea- In about 3 months, signs of urinary discomfort reappeared. So I went back to using the therapies twice a day as in the past, and in 4 days all my urinary symptoms felt normal again. I still stay on a almost free salt diet, less fried food and very little sugar- This aids further in improving my health.

I don't know where I would be if it wasn't for the treatment that you have me on. I really don't want to end up with a kidney transplant or dialysis for the rest of my life. So Thank You ever so much for the better life you have helped me achieve.

Rheumatoid Arthritis with severe case of rheumatoid nodules

My name is Charlene and I've had Rheumatoid Arthritis for the last 14 years. I have been on many medications to help relieve the pain and the progression of this disease. The last medication was Enbrel. I gave myself an injection twice a week. Even though I felt better, I developed nodules on my fingers and wrists. I even had some of the nodules removed by surgery but they came back. It came to a point that I could no longer afford this medication, so I began looking for other options.

In October of 2006, I went to see Dr. Sharif. He put me on an Anti-Inflammatory Diet. Along with this diet he had me start taking some natural products, such as UNDA's to help my GI (gastrointestinal tract) and my kidneys. I also give myself castor oil packs on my abdomen. This, along with HMF that I take are just two of the natural tools to help treat my immune system to becoming healthy.
Between the diet and all the natural tools that Dr. Sharif has given me my health has greatly improved. I can't believe the difference in the way I feel, including more energy. By continuing doing the diet and natural tools, there will come a day when my immune system will be healthy and I will be able to eat a normal and healthy diet and my Rheumatoid Arthritis will be gone. By the way, I've also have seen some of my nodules disappear!

I can't thank Dr. Sharif enough for giving me my life back. I will follow what he says, because it works!

Chronic Abdominal Problems

I came to Dr. Sharif with acute symptoms of nausea and severe abdominal pain.
Additionally, I have always had a (what I called) a "sensitive gut". I had been to medical doctors for years and years and given pill after pill….. with no relief. Through my medical doctor (same family practitioner for over 15 years and even gastroenterologists), I was sent for one diagnostic test after another, given several different pills for my symptoms and not once was the "cause" addressed.

After my initial visit with Dr. Sharif, and one day of being on his remedies, all of my acute symptoms were gone. Additionally, my chronic problem of having (what I called) a sensitive gut was better within a week of being treated by Dr. Sharif. Of course, I am continuing to undergo treatment at this time- it has been about one month since my initial visit. So, Dr. Sharif not only got rid of my acute symptoms, he also discovered and is addressing/treating the underlying cause of my gut problems, and consequently helping with my chronic gut issues as well. As he states, "in order to truly help with chronic symptoms, you must address the cause. You can't just alleviate symptoms superficially with medicines (pharmaceuticals or even natural medicines) and expect your chronic symptoms to disappear on their own."

Dr. Sharif's assessment was based on an extensive interview, a thorough physical exam, and ordering/reviewing the results of a comprehensive blood test and an abdominal ultrasound. The initial visit lasted 2 hours. He told me that my chronic gut problems were not just confined to my gut- it also had something to do with my liver, and possibly other organs as well. My liver enzymes were elevated which showed up in the blood test. Dr. Sharif recommended natural medicines that help the liver and kidneys with their day-to-day functioning-detoxification or "cleansing" processes. These medicines are "drainage" medicines which are all liquid homeopathic as well as botanical medicines. I am currently taking a couple of Gemmotherapies and some UNDA numbers for the liver as well as for the kidneys. He also urged me to apply the castor oil pack onto my abdomen religiously.

More recently, I developed a bad cold (with a nagging cough), and was feeling quite poorly for a number of days. After several days of being sick, I thought I would see if there was anything that could be done to help my symptoms. Once again, after one day of being on Dr. Sharif's remedies (UNDA numbers) for colds and acute cough, I was breathing better, coughing less, sneezing less and able to lay down to sleep without getting all stuffy. Overnight my cold and acute cough was much better.

Dr. Sharif has changed my life- I feel healthier, have more energy, and expect to live longer as a result. He listens to what I have to say, is compassionate, and I feel he truly cares about my well being.

Addendum:
It has now been 4 months since my first appointment with Dr. Sharif and what a difference his treatment has made in my health. I faithfully did the caster oil pack, took my Unda's as prescribed and embarked on the dysbiosis therapy. I now have the energy I did over 15 years ago and there are no words to describe how incredibley good I feel. At 57 years old....for the first time ever I have stopped biting my finger nails, am no longer obsessive compulsive with my house cleaning and get a good nights sleep. Life is good! I thought if I was going to take time out of my day to have an appointment it would be to my advantage to do what Dr. Sharif advises in order to receive optimal results and I did. Thank you Dr. Sharif for your knowledge, my personalized treatment plan and your kindness in helping me acheive total body wellness.

Addendum:

I would like to add yet another milestone in my care from Dr. Sharif. I have had heart burn for years and at time it becomes so painful that I would actually throw up. Dr. Sharif told me I had to stop drinking diet coke! I loved my diet coke and I went through really bad withdrawals. Now that I have that behind me I am so pleased to say that my heart burn has completely subsided.....it is gone! I am extremely happy about these results and feel so much better.

Thanks!
