Die INUSpherese® ist eine innovative Methode zur Reinigung des Blutplasmas. Das intelligente Filtersystem der INUSpherese® ist darauf ausgelegt, Umweltgifte, Autoantikörper, Immunkomplexe und Entzündungsmediatoren schonend zu entfernen. INUSpheresis® Homepage / Treatments / INUSpheresis® INUSpheresis® is an innovative method for purifying blood plasma. The intelligent filter system of INUSpherese® is designed to gently remove environmental toxins, autoantibodies, immune complexes and inflammatory mediators. The therapeutic benefits of INUSpherese® lie in its ability to support the immune system and activate the body's natural self-healing powers. It does this by effectively removing harmful substances that could otherwise stress the immune system and affect overall health. INUSpherese® can be easily integrated into holistic medicine as it is a gentle method for blood purification. It can be used as a standalone treatment or in conjunction with other therapeutic approaches to support and strengthen the body on a holistic level. INUSpheresis® Effectiveness and study situation Our medical team at ELLANN® consists of highly qualified and compassionate professionals who are passionate about your well-being. Each team member brings unique skills and experience to provide you with personalized, comprehensive care. Studies & News During INUSpheresis®, the patient's blood is drained from the body and passed through a special filter that can efficiently remove harmful substances and pro-inflammatory proteins. During the process, the blood is broken down into its main components so that the harmful substances can be selectively removed. The healthy blood components, including vital proteins, electrolytes and antibodies, are returned to the body. This selective process distinguishes INUSpheresis® from other blood purification procedures. During INUSpheresis®, an osmotic effect is created that makes it possible to remove pathogens not only from the blood, but also from the connective tissue, fatty tissue, nerve tissue, the eyes and all internal organs. How INUSpherese® works Difference from therapeutic apheresis INUSpheresis® represents a further development of therapeutic apheresis, although it is based on similar principles. Special filters with intelligent membranes and a specially designed device can also be used to specifically treat diseases for which apheresis has not previously been used. This technical adaptation offers numerous advantages, in particular more efficient filtration of harmful proteins and toxins. With the INUSpherese® does not occurExchange of blood plasma , as in plasmapheresis. During plasmapheresis, the exchanged plasma is replaced either with a protein solution (human albumin) or the plasma from healthy donors. In contrast to many other blood purification procedures, INUSpheresis® retains important proteins, electrolytes and antibodies in the blood. This ensures that the body is optimally supplied during treatment and does not lose any vital nutrients. INUSpheresis® differs fundamentally from dialysis, which is a proven method for removing urinary substances in patients with impaired kidney function. In contrast, INUSpheresis® is used to eliminate misdirected autoimmune antibodies, inflammatory messengers and environmental toxins, strengthen the immune system and reduce inflammatory processes. While dialysis is primarily used for patients with kidney problems, INUSpheresis® can help a broader group of patients struggling with autoimmune diseases, chronic inflammation, environmental stresses and long-COVID. Difference from dialysis What is filtered? INUSpheresis® was developed to remove a variety of disease-promoting substances and toxic substances from the blood. This includes: ⎯⎯• Lipids and lipoprotein-a ⎯⎯• Pathogenic proteins ⎯⎯• Paraproteins ⎯⎯• Pathoproteins, haptens ⎯⎯• Pathogenous antibodies, auto-antibodies ⎯⎯• Tumor-associated proteins ⎯⎯• Circulating immune complexes ⎯⎯• Inflammatory substances (e.g. CRP, TNF-a) ⎯⎯• Toxic substances (environmental toxins) ⎯⎯• Heavy metals ⎯⎯• Pesticides ⎯⎯• Fungicides ⎯⎯• Microplastics Double plasma filtration and the use of intelligent filters make it possible to specifically wash out these pollutants while preserving healthy components of the blood. INUSpherese® does not affect vaccination protection because antibodies and immune cells that are responsible for vaccination protection are preserved. This makes INUSpheresis® an extremely effective method for cleaning blood plasma and supporting general well-being and health. The "INUS TKM58" secondary filter has an immunological membrane with fine pores and a special structure that is designed to specifically eliminate pathogenic proteins and toxic substances bound to proteins. The TKM58 works by filtering according to size, shape and weight. The secondary filter "INUS-30" is a lipid filter and is used in patients with hypercholesterolemia. In contrast to conventional filters, INUSpherese® uses finer pore filters. This makes it possible to remove up to 80% of lipids from blood plasma, which leads to improvement of microcirculation and reduction of inflammatory markers and fibrinogen. The INUS filters are disposable filters. Diagnosis A careful diagnosis at the beginning of every treatment is like a guide for our doctors and therapists. It makes it possible to identify the causes of the symptoms and, based on this, to design an individually tailored treatment strategy. An accurate diagnosis is essential as it lays the foundation for effective therapy aimed at providing you with the best possible help and promoting your well-being.

Below we provide a brief overview of the diseases we treat most frequently: AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES LEARN MORE CHRONIC INFLAMMATION LEARN MORE LONG–COVID LEARN MORE METABOLIC DISEASES LEARN MORE ENVIRONMENTAL DISEASES LEARN MORE Who is INUSpheresis® not suitable for? INUSpheresis® is an advanced therapy method that has the potential to improve the quality of life of many patients. Nevertheless, it should be noted that, as with any medical treatment, individual patient conditions must be taken into account as they can influence the applicability and effectiveness of the therapy. The following are specific health conditions for which the use of INUSpherese® should be considered particularly carefully in consultation with the medical team: ⎯⎯• Acute fever or inflammatory processes ⎯⎯• Recent strokes ⎯⎯• Acute heart disease ⎯⎯• Organ failure ⎯⎯• Advanced cancers ⎯⎯• Psychiatric disorders, including psychoses or anxiety neuroses ⎯⎯• Multimorbidity (the presence of multiple serious illnesses) This serves as a guide for a comprehensive discussion between patients and our ELLANN® medical team. The joint discussion allows the treatment plan to be adjusted according to the individual health conditions of the patient, with the ultimate goal always being to achieve the best possible health outcome for each patient. Despite the low side effects that INUSpheresis® brings with it compared to other invasive procedures, we are fully aware of our responsibility towards our patients. Our goal is for you to feel safe and secure throughout the entire treatment process. That's why every INUSpheresis® is personally accompanied and monitored by Ms. Kellermann, a specialist in anesthesiology and intensive care medicine. The fact that all INUSpherese® treatments are carried out under the continuous supervision of an intensive care doctor is a special feature that distinguishes ELLANN® from other centers. Because the well-being and safety of our patients are our top priority. Safety and side effects Ms. Kellermann, specialist in anesthesiology and intensive care medicine Process of the INUSpherese® treatment The INUSpherese® treatment takes place in our specially equipped rooms, which are designed for optimal outpatient treatment. The therapy is carried out in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. The treatment itself is gentle and painless. Preparation for INUSpheresis® Before INUSpheresis® is carried out, a thorough anamnesis and diagnosis is necessary. It may be useful to check certain laboratory parameters to determine whether this therapy is recommended for you. These include classic laboratory values such as CRP, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, interleukin 16 and 8 and tumor necrosis factor. You can find out more about our laboratory standards under Diagnostics and in a personal consultation. The day before treatment No special preparations are required before an INUSpherese® treatment. You can eat and exercise as usual. It is recommended to drink sufficient fluids the day before treatment, ideally around 3 liters. On the day of treatment On the day of INUSpheresis® You are advised to have a good breakfast and stop drinking about 2 hours before treatment to avoid going to the toilet during treatment. During treatment At the beginning of the procedure, infusion lines are inserted into the right and left armpits. During therapy, the blood from one arm passes through the filter system of a special INUS machine. The blood first passes through the first filter, which separates the solid blood components from the plasma. The solid components enter an air trap that ensures that no air is returned to the patient. The plasma is then passed through the secondary filter, where it is filtered using special membranes. Contaminants accumulate inside the filter while the cleaned plasma is pushed out through the membrane. The filtered plasma is then heated by a heater and reunited with the solid blood components from the air trap before finally being directed back into the body via the other armpit. The filtered pollutants are transported further from the second filter and collected in a bag (eluate) so that they can later be examined in a medical laboratory. The INUS device is equipped with state-of-the-art sensors and controls that precisely monitor and adjust the process. The complete INUSpherese® treatment usually lasts between 2 and 3 hours. During this time, our patients are continuously monitored technically and personally. After treatment After the INUSpherese® treatment, it is important to drink enough fluids to hydrate the body. It is recommended to drink plenty of water to replenish fluid loss. In addition, it is advisable to eat a balanced meal to provide the body with the necessary nutrients. It is recommended to avoid fatty or heavy meals as these can put a strain on digestion. Instead, easily digestible foods like fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins can be good choices. However, it is always best to follow the specific recommendations of your doctor or healthcare professional as they can provide the most accurate information for your individual case. INUSpherese® is an extremely gentle treatment method with almost no side effects. Since it is still considered a minimal procedure, we recommend not driving a motor vehicle or bicycle on the day of treatment or for the following 24 hours. At the patient's request or on medical advice, the eluate (the liquid with residues filtered out) is sent for laboratory medical analyzes in order to determine the amounts of pollutants and pathogenic plasma residues that have been excreted. The cost of the laboratory test varies depending on the type of analysis desired and is discussed in advance with the patient. Particularly in the case of certain underlying diseases, these results are used to monitor the course of treatment and further therapy planning.

Entzündungen sind natürliche Abwehrreaktionen des Körpers, die normalerweise kurzzeitig auftreten, um Krankheitserreger zu bekämpfen. Allerdings können sie zu Krankheiten führen, wenn sie chronisch werden. CHRONIC INFLAMMATION Homepage / Diseases / Chronical Inflammation Inflammation is the body's natural defense reaction, which usually occurs briefly to fight pathogens. However, they can lead to illness if they become chronic. In cases of chronic inflammation, the body is unable to effectively defend itself against the constant release of inflammatory substances into organs and tissues. This results in inflammatory markers in the blood being permanently elevated and diseased cells in the inflamed area being gradually replaced by connective tissue. The inflamed tissue is broken down and slowly heals by forming scars. Chronic inflammation, depending on its location in the body, can permanently impair the normal function of affected tissues, even if treatment is provided. Chronical Inflammation Causes of chronic inflammation Chronic inflammation is now widespread and affects millions of people in developed countries and can be triggered by various causes. Here are some common causes of chronic inflammation: Causes of chronic inflammation 01 Infections Long-term infections, such as bacterial, viral or parasitic infections, can cause chronic inflammation. 02 Autoimmune diseases Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and Crohn's disease cause the immune system to attack healthy tissue, which can lead to chronic inflammation. 03 Nutrition An unbalanced diet high in saturated fats, refined sugars, and processed foods can promote inflammation. 04 Overweight Overweight and obesity (obesity) are associated with chronic inflammation because fatty tissue can produce inflammatory substances. 05 stress Chronic stress can affect the immune system and contribute to inflammation. 06 genetics Some people are at higher risk of chronic inflammation due to their genetic makeup. 07 Environmental factors Environmental toxins, air pollution and certain chemicals can promote chronic inflammation. Environmental factors as triggers Chronic inflammation has been increasing worldwide for decades, and the causes are diverse. Environmental toxins, which are ubiquitous, especially in industrialized countries, play an important role. New chemicals that are not beneficial to human health have found their way into our daily lifestyle. They can be found in household cleaning products, personal care products, cosmetics, textiles, indoor pollution, air pollution and, above all, in food. Depending on the individual's ability to detoxify, these chemicals accumulate in different tissues and organs. This can lead to numerous health problems, including eye disease, heart problems, kidney and thyroid disease, and neurological disorders. Clinical pictures and effects Primär-chronische Entzündungen Sekundär-chronische Entzündungen Primary chronic inflammation develop gradually and manifest themselves through slow or intermittent symptoms. The duration of an inflammatory attack often lasts longer than four weeks and complete healing is usually not possible. Examples of primary chronic inflammation are diseases such as type 1 diabetes Autoimmune diseases HowRheumatoid arthritis ,multiple sclerosis orCrohn's disease , in which symptoms gradually progress. Learn more Secondary chronic inflammationusually occur after an acute inflammation that has not completely healed. The healing process is often lengthy. Examples of such chronic forms are diseases such as chronic hepatitis, chronic myocarditis, stomach ulcer (ulcer) or chronic tonsillitis. These often occur after untreated acute inflammation and manifest as long-lasting problems. Learn more A variety of diseases can be caused by chronic inflammation. We differentiate between primary-chronic inflammation and secondary-chronic inflammation: Symptoms of chronic inflammation Chronic inflammation often begins gradually and symptoms often worsen over time. Chronic inflammation can cause a variety of symptoms that vary depending on the organ or tissue affected. Here are some common symptoms of chronic inflammation: Pains Chronic inflammation is often accompanied by persistent pain that may occur near the affected area. swelling Inflammation often leads to swelling and can cause tissue damage. Redness Inflamed areas may be red and warmer than the surrounding skin. Stiffness Joints can become stiff and less mobile when affected by inflammation. exhaustion Chronic inflammation can cause general tiredness and fatigue. Fever An increased body temperature can indicate inflammation, although this is not always the case. weight loss For some people, chronic inflammation can lead to unwanted weight loss. Organ change Depending on the area affected, chronic inflammation can lead to permanent organ damage. anamnese The detailed medical history survey serves to collect information about symptoms, previous history and possible risk factors. Physical examination A thorough physical examination may reveal evidence of inflammation, such as swelling, redness, pain, or limited mobility. Laboratory tests In laboratory tests, doctors use special blood tests to determine whether there is inflammation in the body. Various markers are examined here: C-reactive protein (CRP): This is where the biomarker CRP is determined in the blood, which is often used to assess inflammation in the body. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR): The ESR measures how quickly red blood cells settle in the blood. This value is often used to detect inflammation or other diseases in the body. Interleukins 1, 6 and 8: The values provide information about the presence of inflammatory messengers called interleukins, which are crucial in the body's immune response to infections and inflammation. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α): This test examines TNF-α in the blood, a protein that is involved in inflammatory processes. Imaging procedures Depending on whether a particular inflammation is suspected, an imaging test such as X-rays, CT scans or MRI scans may be required to examine the affected areas in more detail. biopsy In some cases, a tissue biopsy may be necessary to make an accurate diagnosis. This involves taking a small sample of tissue and examining it under a microscope. Endoscopy If there is inflammation in the digestive tract, an endoscopy can be performed to more accurately assess the condition of the mucous membrane. Diagnostics for chronic diseases Chronic inflammatory diseases often affect more than just one organ system. The diagnosis of chronic inflammation can be complex and depends on the type of inflammation and the patient's individual circumstances. At ELLANN® we work together with specialized doctors on an interdisciplinary basis, because thorough diagnostics are essential for optimal therapy planning. Below are some common diagnostic procedures for chronic inflammation: Treatment of chronic inflammation The treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases can vary depending on the type of disease and individual health status. Here are some general approaches to treating such conditions: Medication Anti-inflammatory medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are often used to relieve pain and inflammation. For autoimmune diseases, immunosuppressants or biologics may be prescribed to suppress the immune system and reduce inflammation. Corticosteroids can be used in acute bursts to quickly combat inflammation. Lifestyle changes A healthy diet can help reduce inflammation. Antioxidant-rich foods such as fruits and vegetables are recommended. Regular exercise can improve joint function and relieve pain. Stress management techniques such as yoga or meditation can also be helpful. physical therapy Physical therapy can help improve mobility and reduce pain in affected areas. Surgical interventions In some cases, surgery may be necessary to remove damaged tissue or repair joints.In some cases, surgery may be necessary to remove damaged tissue or repair joints. Alternative therapies Some people seek alternative approaches such as acupuncture or homeopathy to relieve their symptoms. Cause therapy with INUSpherese® for chronic inflammatory diseases With INUSpheresis®, we filter the blood to specifically remove substances that promote disease and cause inflammation, such as environmental toxins and misdirected autoimmune antibodies. At the same time, we demonstrably reduce the amount of inflammatory messengers such as CRP or TNF-a in the blood with every INUSpheresis®. With the help of INUSpherese® therapy, we address the causes and can thus have a positive influence on chronic inflammation. At ELLANN® we do not rely on medications that often have side effects to alleviate symptoms, but rather concentrate on specifically removing the disease-promoting factors from the body. Treatment INUSpheresis Details INUSpheresis® The method of therapeutic apharesis has been mentioned in over 21,000 scientific studies (PubMed, January 2021).

In Deutschland leidet etwa jeder dritte Mensch an Schilddrüsenproblemen, wobei ein Mangel an Schilddrüsenhormonen (Unterfunktion) häufig vorkommt. Etwa drei Prozent der Bevölkerung entwickeln eine chronische Entzündung namens Hashimoto-Thyreoiditis (auch kurz Hashimoto genannt). HASHIMOTO THYREOIDITIS Homepage / Diseases / Autoimmune Diseases / Hashimoto's Thyroiditis In Germany, around one in three people suffers from thyroid problems, with a lack of thyroid hormones (underactive function) being common. About three percent of the population develops a chronic inflammatory condition called Hashimoto's thyroiditis (also known as Hashimoto's for short). This autoimmune disease causes the body's immune system to mistakenly attack the cells of the thyroid gland. This disease usually occurs between the ages of 30 and 50, with women being affected more often. The signs are often initially misinterpreted as menopausal symptoms. There are two forms of Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Atrophic form The thyroid tissue is gradually destroyed and the thyroid shrinks. This form is the most common. Hypertrophic form In the rarer form, the thyroid gland enlarges and a palpable goiter (goiter) forms. Hashimoto's Thyroiditis Causes of Hashimoto Thyroiditis Causes of Hashimoto Thyroiditis The exact triggers for Hashimoto's are still being fully researched. It is discussed that family predisposition, hormonal changes (such as birth or menopause), psychological stress, severe viral infections (such as Pfeiffer's glandular fever, shingles) and hormonal problems of the adrenal cortex can be possible triggers. Environmental influences Environmental influences are also discussed, such as exposure to heavy metals, pesticides and numerous other everyday toxins. But smoking, stress, infections (especially hepatitis type C), an excess of iodine and a deficiency of selenium or vitamin D are also discussed as triggers for inflammation of the thyroid. Symptoms of Hashimoto's Thyroiditis Hashimoto's does not usually cause pain and therefore often goes unnoticed. Initially, temporarily high levels of thyroid hormones may occur, causing signs of hyperthyroidism such as weight loss, nervousness, and heart palpitations. As the inflammation progresses and further damages the thyroid tissue, it leads to an underactive thyroid. The slowing of metabolic processes can lead to the following symptoms: ⎯⎯• Exhaustion and tiredness ⎯⎯• Dejection and depressive mood ⎯⎯• Memory problems and difficulty concentrating ⎯⎯• Freezing and sensitivity to cold ⎯⎯• Constipation and bloated stomach ⎯⎯• Weight gain despite a normal diet ⎯⎯• Dry skin, brittle hair and hair loss ⎯⎯• Susceptibility to infections ⎯⎯• Compulsion to clear the throat and cough, voice changes ⎯⎯• Menstrual cycle disorder in women ⎯⎯• Potency disorders in men ⎯⎯• Cardiac arrhythmia, slow heartbeat ⎯⎯• Water retention ⎯⎯• Hearing loss ⎯⎯• Muscle pain Depending on the course and severity, different symptoms can occur in each patient and not all symptoms always occur. Treatment options for Hashimoto's thyroiditis Hashimoto's thyroiditis is not curable. It is treated with hormone tablets that compensate for the lack of thyroid hormones. Treatment is usually aimed at relieving symptoms, balancing hormone levels by administering hormones and slowing the progression of the disease. However, this does not cure the autoimmune disease. Other influencing factors such as diet, stress, environmental influences and even the quality of sleep have a significant influence on the long-term success of the therapy, the improvement of symptoms and the effective prevention of new attacks in Hashimoto. Because the immune system is overactive in Hashimoto's, it is crucial to minimize potential triggers for this overreaction as much as possible. INUSpheresis® INUSpheresis® as an accompanying therapy for Hashimoto In the case of Hashimoto's, the first priority is to get the antibodies' attacks on the thyroid under control and thus bring the inflammation levels to the lowest possible range. Therefore, at ELLANN® we use INUSpheresis® as a useful complementary therapy option to specifically remove heavy metals and other environmental toxins as well as inflammatory proteins. Autoimmune diseases INUSpheresis Details There have already been various studies on the effectiveness of theINUSpheresis ® carried out. These show promising results in the treatment of various diseases such asUlcerative colitis ,rheumatoid arthritis ,Polyneuropathy ,Crohn's disease . We have put together some interesting studies for you here. Study situation News & study situation Which diagnoses can INUSpheresis® help with? ⎯⎯• Allergies ⎯⎯• Lyme disease ⎯⎯• Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) ⎯⎯• Chronic hepatitis C ⎯⎯• Hashimoto ⎯⎯• Hyperlipidemia ⎯⎯• Crohn's disease ⎯⎯• multiple sclerosis ⎯⎯• Multiple Chemical Hyper- sensitivity syndrome (MCS) ⎯⎯• Parkinson's ⎯⎯• Post-COVID syndrome ⎯⎯• Post-vac syndrome ⎯⎯• Rheumatism (chronic inflammatory) ⎯⎯• Heavy metal poisoning ⎯⎯• and more What exactly is filtered by INUSpherese®? INUSpheresis® was developed to remove a variety of disease-promoting substances and toxic substances from the blood. These include environmental toxins, heavy metals, allergens, metabolic products, inflammatory messengers, infection toxins and harmful proteins. Specially developed filters make it possible to specifically filter out these pollutants while preserving healthy components of the blood. INUSpherese® does not affect your vaccination protection because antibodies and immune cells that are responsible for your vaccination protection are preserved. This makes INUSpheresis® an extremely effective method for cleaning blood plasma and supporting general well-being and health. Ist die INUSpheresis® a blood wash? INUSpheresis® is not a conventional blood wash or plasma exchange method. It is also not dialysis, in which urinary substances are filtered out. INUSpheresis® is characterized by the targeted removal of harmful substances, while essential and healthy components of your blood remain untouched. This includes vital electrolytes, proteins, nutrients, blood cells and antibodies. The use of specially developed filters ensures that only pathogenic contamination is removed during the treatment. This makes the treatment particularly gentle and generally very well tolerated. How many INUSpherese® treatments are necessary? The number of INUSpherese® treatments required depends on your individual health status and health goals. A basic cycle of two treatments within 48 hours is recommended. For more intensive needs, such as extensive heavy metal elimination or complex clinical pictures, a third and even fourth treatment session every 6 to 7 weeks can make sense. Your personal treatment plan will be drawn up by our doctors after a detailed consultation. How much does an INUSpherese® treatment cost? An INUSpherese® therapy, which consists of two treatments, accompanying infusion concepts and a preparatory medical consultation, is usually priced between €5,400 and €5,700. This cost information is intended to serve as a rough guide, as the exact investment can vary depending on your individual health condition and any additional therapy options. As part of the therapy planning, you will receive detailed advice and a detailed cost overview that is individually tailored to your health goals. Frequently asked Questions

Die Multiple Sklerose ist eine autoimmune, chronisch-entzündliche Erkrankung des zentralen Nervensystems. Bei der MS greift das Immunsystem fälschlicherweise die Nerven im Gehirn und Rückenmark an und schädigt diese. Das Wort Sklerose bedeutet Narbenbildung. Es entstehen „Narben auf Nerven“, wodurch diese nicht mehr richtig arbeiten können. MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS Home page /diseases /Autoimmune diseases / Multiple Sk Multiple sclerosis is an autoimmune, chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. In MS, the immune system mistakenly attacks and damages the nerves in the brain and spinal cord. The word sclerosis means scarring. “Scars appear on nerves,” meaning they can no longer work properly. MS mostly occurs in young people (between the ages of 20 and 40), and is twice as common in women as in men. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) causes The exact mechanism of how chronic fatigue syndrome develops has so far only been partially understood. The disease begins with an infection - usually in full health. Possible triggers can be: ⎯⎯• Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and other herpes viruses ⎯⎯• Dengue viruses ⎯⎯• Coxsackie viruses ⎯⎯• Influenza ⎯⎯• Borrelia ⎯⎯• Bacteria (Legionella, Coxial) There are a number of proven connections that suggest that CFS is an autoimmune disease in at least some patients. Most people with chronic fatigue syndrome are highly productive until the disease occurs. As a rule, the disorder occurs suddenly and often after a stressful event. These risk factors include: ⎯⎯• Immune defects ⎯⎯• Other cases in the family ⎯⎯• Vulnerable phase with physical or psychological stress Causes of MS Causes of MS The cause of MS is still unknown. However, most doctors believe those affected may have been exposed to a virus or unknown substance at a young age. This exposure may have caused the immune system to attack the body's own tissue, triggering an autoimmune reaction. However, the exact connection is not yet known. It is further believed that a combination of genetic, environmental and immunological factors contribute to this condition. There are some theories that point to specific causes: Genetic predisposition There is evidence that MS has a genetic component. People with a family member who has MS are at higher risk of developing the disease themselves. Environmental influences Certain environmental and geographical conditions can also influence the risk of MS. The closer a person grows up to the equator, the lower their risk of MS. The risk increases further south and north. Northern Europe and North America have the highest incidence rates. A vitamin D deficiency due to too little sunlight may play a role. In addition, among other things, Viral infections (e.g. caused by measles viruses, herpes viruses or Epstein-Barr viruses), Lyme disease and smoking are discussed. It is important to note that autoimmune diseases can vary widely and not all of these factors play a role in every case. The exact cause can vary from disease to disease. Environmental factors as triggers Chronic inflammation has been increasing worldwide for decades, and the causes are diverse. Environmental toxins, which are ubiquitous, especially in industrialized countries, play an important role. New chemicals that are not beneficial to human health have found their way into our daily lifestyle. They can be found in household cleaning products, personal care products, cosmetics, textiles, indoor pollution, air pollution and, above all, in food. Depending on the individual's ability to detoxify, these chemicals accumulate in different tissues and organs. This can lead to numerous health problems, including eye disease, heart problems, kidney and thyroid disease, and neurological disorders. Clinical pictures and effects Primär-chronische Entzündungen Sekundär-chronische Entzündungen Primary chronic inflammation develop gradually and manifest themselves through slow or intermittent symptoms. The duration of an inflammatory attack often lasts longer than four weeks and complete healing is usually not possible. Examples of primary chronic inflammation are diseases such as type 1 diabetes or autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis or Crohn's disease, in which the symptoms gradually progress. Learn more Secondary chronic inflammationusually occur after an acute inflammation that has not completely healed. The healing process is often lengthy. Examples of such chronic forms are diseases such as chronic hepatitis, chronic myocarditis, stomach ulcer (ulcer) or chronic tonsillitis. These often occur after untreated acute inflammation and manifest as long-lasting problems. Learn more A variety of diseases can be caused by chronic inflammation. We differentiate between primary-chronic inflammation and secondary-chronic inflammation: Symptoms of MS Because MS attacks different nerves, patients' symptoms vary. The pattern in which symptoms appear and subside also varies. Early symptoms and signs of illness that occur particularly frequently in MS are: ⎯⎯• Spastic paralysis symptoms ⎯⎯• Visual problems with blurred or foggy vision as an expression of inflammation of the optic nerves (optic neuritis) ⎯⎯• Sensation disorders of the skin (“sensitivity disorders”), usually in the form of tingling, (painful) sensations or a feeling of numbness ⎯⎯• Uncertainty when walking or grasping ⎯⎯• Double vision ⎯⎯• Bladder disorders ⎯⎯• “Slurred” speech Multiple sclerosis can also cause numerous other symptoms, which can occur individually or in combination. These later symptoms of MS are: ⎯⎯• Spastic paralysis symptoms ⎯⎯• Problems controlling the urge to urinate or defecate ⎯⎯• Difficulty with balance and walking ⎯⎯• Fatigue and feeling weak ⎯⎯• Slow, slurred speech ⎯⎯• Depressive moods and depression ⎯⎯• Limitations in attention, memory and concentration. ⎯⎯• Pain ⎯⎯• Dizziness ⎯⎯• Sexual dysfunctions Pains swelling Inflammation often leads to swelling and can cause tissue damage. Redness Inflamed areas may be red and warmer than the surrounding skin. Stiffness Joints can become stiff and less mobile when affected by inflammation. exhaustion Chronic inflammation can cause general tiredness and fatigue. Fever An increased body temperature can indicate inflammation, although this is not always the case. weight loss For some people, chronic inflammation can lead to unwanted weight loss. Organ change Depending on the area affected, chronic inflammation can lead to permanent organ damage. anamnese The detailed medical history survey serves to collect information about symptoms, previous history and possible risk factors. Physical examination A thorough physical examination may reveal evidence of inflammation, such as swelling, redness, pain, or limited mobility. Laboratory tests In laboratory tests, doctors use special blood tests to determine whether there is inflammation in the body. Various markers are examined here: C-reactive protein (CRP): This is where the biomarker CRP is determined in the blood, which is often used to assess inflammation in the body. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR): The ESR measures how quickly red blood cells settle in the blood. This value is often used to detect inflammation or other diseases in the body. Interleukins 1, 6 and 8: The values provide information about the presence of inflammatory messengers called interleukins, which are crucial in the body's immune response to infections and inflammation. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α): This test examines TNF-α in the blood, a protein that is involved in inflammatory processes. Imaging procedures Depending on whether a particular inflammation is suspected, an imaging test such as X-rays, CT scans or MRI scans may be required to examine the affected areas in more detail. biopsy In some cases, a tissue biopsy may be necessary to make an accurate diagnosis. This involves taking a small sample of tissue and examining it under a microscope. Endoscopy If there is inflammation in the digestive tract, an endoscopy can be performed to more accurately assess the condition of the mucous membrane. Diagnostics for chronic diseases Chronic inflammatory diseases often affect more than just one organ system. The diagnosis of chronic inflammation can be complex and depends on the type of inflammation and the patient's individual circumstances. At ELLANN® we work together with specialized doctors on an interdisciplinary basis, because thorough diagnostics are essential for optimal therapy planning.

Treatment options for MS There are various treatment options for MS, which can vary depending on the course of the disease, severity and individual needs. Drug therapies There are several medications used to treat MS, aimed at modifying the course of the disease, reducing inflammation, and relieving symptoms. These include immunomodulators, immunosuppressants, steroids and newer medications such as monoclonal antibodies. Physiotherapy and rehabilitation These therapies can help improve physical functionality, manage symptoms, and increase quality of life. This includes physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy and other rehabilitation measures. Supportive therapies This includes symptom relief measures such as pain management, nutritional advice, psychological support and counseling. Lifestyle adjustments A healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, regular exercise and stress management can have a positive influence on the course of the disease. It is important that the treatment of MS is individualized and carried out in consultation with a doctor or neurologist. New treatment options and research results can further develop therapy options, so it is advisable to regularly keep yourself informed about current developments. INUSpheresis® INUSpherese® as an accompanying therapy option for MS There is currently no cure for multiple sclerosis, only options to alleviate the symptoms. If symptoms worsen acutely during standard drug therapy, more intensive treatment and the use of additional procedures may be helpful. INUSpherese® therapy shows promising results in some MS patients by effectively filtering known factors such as heavy metals and other environmental toxins, inflammatory mediators, autoimmune antibodies, pro-inflammatory cytokines and immune complexes from the blood. This treatment aims to reduce harmful substances, improve blood flow in small blood vessels and ensure that the body receives sufficient oxygen. This is intended to slow down damage that leads to deterioration in the course of the disease. Our medical team at ELLANN® advises patients with MS and their relatives individually on the available treatment options and provides information on whether INUSpheresis® is indicated as an accompanying therapy procedure to alleviate symptoms.

Die Lyme-Borreliose ist eine durch Zecken übertragene bakterielle Infektion. Die übertragenen Bakterien heißen Borrelien und gehören wie die Erreger der Syphilis zu der Bakterienfamilie der Spirochäten und sind wie eine unregelmäßige Spirale geformt, groß und beweglich.  BORRELIOSE (LYME-BORRELIOSE) Homepage / Diseases / Chronic inflammation / Borreliose (Lyme-Borreliose) Borreliose (Lyme-Borreliose) disease is a tick-borne bacterial infection. The transmitted bacteria are called Borrelia and, like the pathogens of syphilis, belong to the spirochete family of bacteria and are shaped like an irregular spiral, large and mobile. Lyme disease is an infectious disease caused by bacteria that is transmitted primarily through the bite of infected ticks. The bacteria, called Borrelia burgdorferi, can enter the body when an infected tick bites a person. The most common causes of Lyme disease are therefore the bite of ticks, especially ticks of the genus Ixodes, which carry the bacteria. Once the bacteria enter the body, they can spread to various organs and tissues, causing a variety of symptoms. Borreliose (Lyme-Borreliose) Symptoms of Borreliose Symptoms of Borreliose Lyme disease progresses in three stages: Early localized stage Early disseminated stage (widespread) Late stage There is usually a symptom-free period between the early and late stages. Stage 1 A large, raised red spot (erythema migrans) usually appears at the bite site. The spot appears in about 75 percent of people 3 to 32 days after the tick bite. As a rule, this spot slowly increases in size to a diameter of up to 50 cm, with the redness in the center of the spot usually subsiding. But the appearance can vary. The center can remain red, but multiple rings can also form around the reddened center (like a target). The stain usually disappears after 3 to 4 weeks. However, in about 25 percent of those infected, a red spot does not develop or is at least not noticed. Stage 2 This stage begins when the bacteria spread throughout the body. It can begin days to weeks after the spot first appears. It is therefore important to pay attention to possible symptoms. Common symptoms of early disseminated stage of Lyme disease: ⎯⎯• exhaustion ⎯⎯• Chills ⎯⎯• Fever ⎯⎯• Headache ⎯⎯• Stiff neck ⎯⎯• Muscle pain ⎯⎯• painful joint swelling These symptoms of Lyme disease can last for weeks. Almost half of those infected who are not treated develop additional, usually smaller, red spots on other parts of the body. These symptoms are often misinterpreted and mistaken for flu or normal viral infections, especially when erythema migrans is not present. The nervous system is affected in around 15 percent of patients. The most common complications are meningitis and facial paralysis. Stage 3 If the initial infection is left untreated, further symptoms can often occur months or years later. Typical late-stage symptoms include: ⎯⎯• Lyme arthritis: Intermittent or chronic inflammation of the joints that affects one or more joints. In most cases the knee joints are affected. There is also pain in the tendons and muscles. ⎯⎯• Skin appearance: The skin on the feet and hands becomes bluish and very thin. ⎯⎯• Nerves: These can be further damaged. In severe cases, parts of the body are paralyzed. ⎯⎯• Chronic fatigue ⎯⎯• Character changes ⎯⎯• Mood swings In the worst case scenario, untreated Lyme disease can be fatal. Therapy for Borreliose Treatment for Lyme-Borreliose usually includes antibiotics, which are prescribed depending on the stage of the disease. Cases detected early can often be treated with two to four weeks of antibiotic therapy. In advanced cases, where the disease has spread further or complications have already arisen, longer antibiotic therapy may be necessary. It is important that treatment begins as soon as possible after diagnosis to reduce the risk of long-term effects. INUSpheresis® INUSpherese® for Lyme-Borreliose Borreliose has complex effects on the body. New research suggests that lipid metabolism may play a crucial role in this disease. Bacteria such as Borrelia burgdorferi are able to use the host organism's fats to survive and spread within the body. This could be why patients with Lyme disease often have altered lipid profiles, including elevated lipid levels. This suggests that elevated lipid levels may be contributing to Lyme disease persisting and causing serious complications. A pilot study examined the role of circulating lipids and lipoproteins in Lyme disease patients and observed the effects of extracorporeal double membrane filtration (INUSpheresis®) on disease progression. The lipid profiles of the subjects with Borrelia infection were analyzed before and after the use of INUSpheresis®. It was found that after INUSpheresis® the concentrations of circulating lipids such as cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL, LP(a) and other inflammatory lipids decreased significantly. At the same time, disease symptoms and indicators of inflammation such as C-reactive protein (CRP) improved. Due to these promising results, we at ELLANN® offer INUSpheresis® as an accompanying therapy for Lyme disease. Study INUSpheresis Details Which diagnoses can INUSpheresis® help with? ⎯⎯• Allergies ⎯⎯• Lyme disease ⎯⎯• Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) ⎯⎯• Chronic hepatitis C ⎯⎯• Hashimoto ⎯⎯• Hyperlipidemia ⎯⎯• Crohn's disease ⎯⎯• multiple sclerosis ⎯⎯• Multiple Chemical Hyper- sensitivity syndrome (MCS) ⎯⎯• Parkinson's ⎯⎯• Post-COVID syndrome ⎯⎯• Post-vac syndrome ⎯⎯• Rheumatism (chronic inflammatory) ⎯⎯• Heavy metal poisoning ⎯⎯• and more What exactly is filtered by INUSpherese®? INUSpheresis® was developed to remove a variety of disease-promoting substances and toxic substances from the blood. These include environmental toxins, heavy metals, allergens, metabolic products, inflammatory messengers, infection toxins and harmful proteins. Specially developed filters make it possible to specifically filter out these pollutants while preserving healthy components of the blood. INUSpherese® does not affect your vaccination protection because antibodies and immune cells that are responsible for your vaccination protection are preserved. This makes INUSpheresis® an extremely effective method for cleaning blood plasma and supporting general well-being and health. Ist die INUSpheresis® a blood wash? INUSpheresis® is not a conventional blood wash or plasma exchange method. It is also not dialysis, in which urinary substances are filtered out. INUSpheresis® is characterized by the targeted removal of harmful substances, while essential and healthy components of your blood remain untouched. This includes vital electrolytes, proteins, nutrients, blood cells and antibodies. The use of specially developed filters ensures that only pathogenic contamination is removed during the treatment. This makes the treatment particularly gentle and generally very well tolerated. How many INUSpherese® treatments are necessary? The number of INUSpherese® treatments required depends on your individual health status and health goals. A basic cycle of two treatments within 48 hours is recommended. For more intensive needs, such as extensive heavy metal elimination or complex clinical pictures, a third and even fourth treatment session every 6 to 7 weeks can make sense. Your personal treatment plan will be drawn up by our doctors after a detailed consultation. How much does an INUSpherese® treatment cost? An INUSpherese® therapy, which consists of two treatments, accompanying infusion concepts and a preparatory medical consultation, is usually priced between €5,400 and €5,700. This cost information is intended to serve as a rough guide, as the exact investment can vary depending on your individual health condition and any additional therapy options. As part of the therapy planning, you will receive detailed advice and a detailed cost overview that is individually tailored to your health goals. Frequently asked Questions

Das Chronic-Fatigue-Syndrom (CFS), auch als Chronisches Erschöpfungssyndrom bekannt, ist eine chronische Erkrankung mit einem vielseitigen Krankheitsbild. Die Hauptsymptome zeigen sich über einen langen Zeitraum (mehr als 6 Monate) als andauernde starke Erschöpfung, die durch Schlaf nicht zu beseitigen ist und sowohl körperlicher als auch geistiger und/oder seelischer Art sein kann. CHRONIC FATIGUE SYNDROME (CFS) Homepage / Diseases / Chronical Inflammation / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), also known as chronic fatigue syndrome, is a chronic disease with a diverse clinical picture. The main symptoms appear over a long period of time (more than 6 months) as persistent, severe exhaustion that cannot be eliminated by sleep and can be physical, mental and/or emotional. The care situation for patients with CFS in Germany has so far been very difficult because there are no specialized centers and many doctors have little knowledge of the disease and adequate therapeutic approaches. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) Causes of CFS causes The exact mechanism of how chronic fatigue syndrome develops has so far only been partially understood. The disease begins with an infection - usually in full health. Possible triggers can be: Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and other herpes viruses Dengue viruses Coxsackie viruses Influenza Borrelia Bacteria (Legionella, Coxial) There are a number of proven connections that suggest that CFS is an autoimmune disease in at least some patients. Most people with chronic fatigue syndrome are highly productive until the disease occurs. As a rule, the disorder occurs suddenly and often after a stressful event. These risk factors include: Immune defects More cases in the family Vulnerable phase with physical or psychological stress Symptoms The problem with CFS is that the symptoms that occur initially appear unspecific and are therefore not associated. They could also indicate other illnesses. What is striking, however, is that the symptoms of CFS appear suddenly. The main symptom is onesevere fatigue for at least six months, resulting in severe restriction of everyday activities. Other symptoms can include: ⎯⎯• Persistent signs of infection such as a sore throat, painful lymph nodes or a slightly elevated temperature ⎯⎯• Susceptibility to infections ⎯⎯• Joint pain ⎯⎯• Muscle pain ⎯⎯• Headache ⎯⎯• Sleep disorders despite severe fatigue ⎯⎯• Increase in infections ⎯⎯• newly occurring allergies ⎯⎯• Food intolerances ⎯⎯• Disorders of the autonomic nervous system, which include dizziness, rapid heartbeat and intestinal problems The symptoms are chronic in most patients and often lead to occupational disability. Those who are particularly seriously ill are dependent on care. Treatment of CFS Because the exact cause of CFS is unknown, there is no specific treatment. Treatment therefore focuses on relieving symptoms and improving quality of life. This may include the use of pain relief medications, cognitive behavioral therapy, and rest. INUSpheresis® INUSpherese® as a treatment option for CFS INUSpheresis® can help alleviate the symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) by removing inflammatory substances from the body to reduce underlying inflammation. By eliminating these substances, patients have the opportunity to recover from the symptoms of CFS and improve their quality of life. We have compiled further information about INUSpheresis® for you here. Treatment INUSpheresis Details In onestudy from 2022, striking similarities between long COVID and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) were reported, suggesting viral and autoimmune causes. In both diseases, antibodies against certain neurotransmitter receptors play a crucial role. A similar increase in these autoantibodies was found in both patient groups examined. Washing blood with a special filter appears to be effective in reducing these antibodies and significantly improves the distressing symptoms of CFS patients. Therefore, this form of blood purification could be a promising therapeutic option for patients with long COVID and CFS, even if previously unknown antibodies and inflammatory mediators are involved. You can find more interesting studieshere. Study situation News & study situation Which diagnoses can INUSpheresis® help with? ⎯⎯• Allergies ⎯⎯• Lyme disease ⎯⎯• Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) ⎯⎯• Chronic hepatitis C ⎯⎯• Hashimoto ⎯⎯• Hyperlipidemia ⎯⎯• Crohn's disease ⎯⎯• multiple sclerosis ⎯⎯• Multiple Chemical Hyper- sensitivity syndrome (MCS) ⎯⎯• Parkinson's ⎯⎯• Post-COVID syndrome ⎯⎯• Post-vac syndrome ⎯⎯• Rheumatism (chronic inflammatory) ⎯⎯• Heavy metal poisoning ⎯⎯• and more What exactly is filtered by INUSpherese®?
