Andreas Moritz (born 1954) is a book-author, iridologist, vaccination-opponent and inventor of pseudomedical methods, born in Germany, and living since 1998 in Greer (South Carolina - USA).
In his books and his own websites in the internet Moritz propagates strange and pseudoscientific opinions about the disease cancer and about his liver cleansing-method (liver cleasing according to Moritz).
In his own desciptions he sees himself as a medical intuitive, practitioner of Ayurveda, Iridology, Shiatsu and Vibrational Medicine and is using the title doctor of Ayurveda[1]. Moritz tells his website-readers that he was in the past teacher for meditation and that he was interested in Ayurveda when he was in New Zealand and India.
He is not only the inventor of a liver-cleansing method, but also of a "Ener-Chi Art" (Ener-Chi Wellness Center, LLC) claiming that the contemplation of particular oil-painting would have healing effects. His "Sacred Santèmony – Divine Chanting" - methods is claimed to "delete" interfering "Akasha-chronicle entries" by using "healing sounds".
Moritz and cancer
In his book Cancer is not a Disease - It's a Survival Mechanism Moritz describes cancer as but one of the many ways the body tries to change the way you see and treat yourself. And he adds: as you are about to find out, cancer is on our side, not against us. 95% of all cancer-case would heal spontanously, if no medical tretment would interfere such a self-healing process. Analoge convintions are know from the German quack and former physician (now barred) Ryke Geerd Hamer, the incentor of Germanic New Medicine and are known from followers of metamedicine and biologie totale of french Georges Sabbah.
According to Moritz, cancer had always been an extremely rare illness, except in industrialized nations during the past 40-50 years. Here, he ignores the fact, that cancer is a disease affecting mostly elderly people. Progress in medicine let to an increase in life exspectancy. Together with progess in cancer detection, the increase of life exspectancy let to an increase of cancer incidence. Lesser cases of infecrous diseases and lesser cases of death because of accidents let to an increase in the percentage of cancer as the cause of death.
Moritz sees the origins of cancer in constant conflicts, guilt and shame, as they would paralyze basic functions od the body, and lead to the growth of a cancerous tumor. Elimination of these alleged cancer-inducing factor would lead to a complete healing of cancer, says Moritz. Therapies used in scientific medicine (operation, radiation therapy or chemotherapy) would lead in only 7% of the cases to healing, and only a few patients would survive that form of healing. According to Moritz, more people would die because of therapy-efforts than due to their disease. These strange allegations without any proof are not backed by scientific literature and contradict solid scientific evidences of modern medicine.
Moritz believes instead in alleged statements of a Dr. Hardin Jones (University of California, see below), who is cited Den Patienten geht es genauso gut, oder noch besser, wenn Sie nicht behandelt werden...
He also believes in the concept of cancer prone personality, obsoltete and dated theories of psychiatrist Wilhelm Reich, Hans Eysenck, Ronald Grossarth-Maticek, Lydia Temoshok (typus C) and Hürny and Adler (1991). He confounds personality traits and consequences of cancer (for instance depression as a consequence of a severe disease).
"liver cleasing" according to Andreas Moritz
Moritz is the inventor of a pseudomedical method called "liver cleasing" according to Andreas Moritz. Moritz believes that the majority of all adults in the industrialized world (and especially subjects affected by heart disease, arthritis, aiabetes, cancer oder MS) would carry hundreds or thousands of gall bladder stones, blocking liver function. A so called "liver cleansing" (an almost identical method is know also from the american quack Hulda Clark) would "flush" gall bladder stones.
The costumer or patient must drink one litre of apple juice every day for six days and then take magnesiumsulfate and 1/8 litre olive oil and grapefruit juice or lemon juice. These substances will build up in the gut soft lumps looking like gall stones, that will end in the toilet and convince the constumer that he had succesfully eliminated his gall stones. In fact, as scientific evidence show, in these cases no gall stone will be excreted.
