Wissenswertes über "Orthomolecular"
The term orthomolecular comes from the Greek and means "right molecules".
The term orthomolecular comes from the Greek and means "right molecules". In medicine, orthomolecular medicine refers to a form of therapy that aims to maintain or restore health through the intake of optimal amounts of natural substances. These include vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids, fatty acids and other nutrients that are essential for the body.
The concept is based on the idea that diseases can be caused by a deficiency or imbalance of these nutrients. Therefore, the focus of orthomolecular medicine is on the individualised supplementation and correction of such deficiencies in order to restore the biochemical balance in the body and thus prevent or treat diseases. This form of therapy was largely popularised by Linus Pauling, a two-time Nobel Prize winner, in the 1960s.
