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

Die Colitis ulcerosa ist eine chronische Entzündung der Schleimhaut des Dickdarms. Sie verläuft in Schüben, so dass sich Krankheitsphasen mit symptomfreien Zeiten abwechseln. Die Colitis ulcerosa betrifft nur den Dickdarm und bleibt auf die oberste Schicht der Darmwand beschränkt, nämlich die Darmschleimhaut. Dort bilden sich „Geschwüre“, also Wunden und flache Defekte in der Schleimhaut. Die Erkrankung verläuft in Schüben und ist durch verschiedene Symptome gekennzeichnet. ULCEROSAL COLITIS Homepage / Diseases / Chronical Inflammation / Ucelerotic Colitis Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammation of the lining of the colon. It progresses in spurts, so that phases of illness alternate with periods without symptoms. Ulcerative colitis only affects the large intestine and is limited to the top layer of the intestinal wall, namely the intestinal mucosa. “Ulcers” form there, i.e. wounds and shallow defects in the mucous membrane. The disease progresses in episodes and is characterized by various symptoms. The long-term risk of colorectal cancer is increased compared to people who do not suffer from ulcerative colitis. Ulcerative Colitis Causes of Ulcerative Colitis Causes of Ulcerative Colitis The exact causes of ulcerative colitis are not yet fully known. However, it is assumed that a combination of genetic predisposition, environmental influences and a disturbed intestinal barrier can promote the development of the disease. Genetic predisposition There is a genetic predisposition to ulcerative colitis. If other family members have inflammatory bowel disease, the risk of the disease is increased. However, only the predisposition is inherited, not the disease itself. Environmental influences Certain environmental influences can promote the occurrence of ulcerative colitis. These include infections, certain food components or lifestyle. It is thought that improved hygiene standards and a Western lifestyle may increase the risk of the disease. Impaired intestinal barrier In people with ulcerative colitis, the protective mucous layer on the intestinal lining is often thinner than in healthy people. This weakens the intestinal barrier and allows bacteria and other harmful substances to penetrate the intestinal wall more easily. This leads to activation of the immune system and an inflammatory response. Symptoms of Ulcerative Colitis Ulcerative colitis can cause a variety of symptoms that may occur during an acute flare-up. The disease often progresses in episodes, with phases alternating with and without symptoms. The typical symptoms of ulcerative colitis include: Other symptoms can include: ⎯⎯• Diarrhea, often mixed with blood or mucus ⎯⎯• Crampy abdominal pain, often in the left lower abdomen ⎯⎯• Bleeding from the anus and anemia as a result of the bleeding ⎯⎯• Fever and general feeling of illness ⎯⎯• Weight loss ⎯⎯• Fatigue ⎯⎯• Constant urge to defecate with the feeling of having to defecate urgently or uncontrollably ⎯⎯• Frequent bowel movements, up to 20 times per day ⎯⎯• Nocturnal bowel movements Complaints outside the intestines are often expressed through inflammation: ⎯⎯• Skin ⎯⎯• Eyes ⎯⎯• Joints Symptoms can vary depending on the extent and severity of the inflammation. It is important to note that not all patients with ulcerative colitis have all symptoms and that symptoms can also vary from person to person. Treatment options for Ulcerative Colitis Treatment for ulcerative colitis aims to control inflammation and relieve symptoms. The therapy usually takes place in close collaboration with a specialist in gastroenterology and can consist of various measures. Here are some therapy options: Medication There are several anti-inflammatory medications that can be used to treat ulcerative colitis. These include aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, immunosuppressants and biologics. The choice of medication depends on the severity of the disease and the individual needs of the patient. Nutritional therapy A healthy and balanced diet plays an important role in the treatment of ulcerative colitis. In some cases, a special diet, such as the anti-inflammatory diet, may be helpful to relieve symptoms and support gut health. Surgical interventions In severe cases or complications, surgery may be necessary. The affected section of intestine can be removed to relieve symptoms and improve the patient's quality of life. However, surgery is usually only necessary if other treatment methods do not provide sufficient relief. It is important to note that treatment of ulcerative colitis must be individualized and that regular care from a gastroenterologist is important to monitor the progression of the disease and adjust therapy accordingly. INUSpheresis® INUSpherese® for ulcerative colitis The INUSpherese® treatment aims to address the underlying causes and thus have a positive influence on chronic inflammation. With INUSpherese® technology, we use blood filtration to specifically eliminate harmful substances that contribute to disease promotion and inflammation, such as environmental toxins and misdirected autoimmune antibodies. At the same time, a demonstrable reduction in inflammatory messengers such as CRP or TNF-a in the blood can be achieved. The aim of INUSpheresis® is to improve the patient's well-being and health in the long term. It can help strengthen the immune system and the body's own self-healing powers. However, it is important to emphasize that INUSpheresis® is a medical procedure and should only be performed by qualified professionals. There are only a few centers in Germany that offer this technology and it is mostly used by experienced doctors in combination with other holistic therapeutic approaches. As one of the few practices in Germany, we at ELLANN® work with the innovative therapy INUSpherese®. As a certified INUS partner, our aim is to help our patients free their bodies from toxic burdens and improve their health in the long term. Treatment INUSpheresis Details Various studies have already been carried out on the effectiveness of INUSpherese®. 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®?

Der Begriff "Umwelterkrankungen" bezieht sich auf Krankheiten, die nachweislich durch spezifische Umweltfaktoren begünstigt, ausgelöst oder aufrechterhalten werden. Viele Erkrankungen werden in Verbindung mit Umweltfaktoren gebracht. Einige können auch ohne diese Einflüsse auftreten (z. B. Migräne), während andere ausschließlich durch externe Faktoren entstehen (z. B. Pollenallergien).  ENVIRONMENTAL DISEASES Homepage / Diseases / Environmental Diseases The term “environmental diseases” refers to diseases that have been shown to be promoted, triggered or maintained by specific environmental factors. Many diseases are associated with environmental factors. Some can occur without these influences (e.g. migraines), while others arise solely from external factors (e.g. pollen allergies). Our daily lives bring us into contact with a variety of toxic substances. Pesticides are contained in many agricultural products, and foods contain numerous additives such as flavors, colors and preservatives. Cosmetics and care products can also contain toxic ingredients. We even find chemicals in the air we breathe, such as solvents from paint and other furnishings. A person's ability to detoxify depends heavily on their genetic factors. Some people are better at breaking down toxins than others, based on genetic variations in enzymes involved in detoxification. These genetic differences may cause some people to be more sensitive to environmental toxins and have a higher risk of health problems. Environmental Diseases Causes of environmental diseases Environmental diseases are, as the name suggests, caused by various environmental factors. These factors can be roughly divided into biological, chemical and physical influences. These “trigger effects” can trigger one or more environmental diseases. Biological environmental factors Biological environmental factors include pathogens that can colonize under certain conditions, as well as allergens such as pollen and ticks. Mold and pathogenic germs can spread under unfavorable environmental conditions. Another aspect is introduced poisonous plants from tropical regions. Chemical environmental factors Chemical environmental factors include environmental toxins such as arsenic, lead, chromium, pesticides, mercury and radioactive particles. In addition, synthetic compounds enter the environment through products such as cosmetics, medicines and detergents and accumulate there. Air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and particulate matter, as well as construction-related pollutants such as asbestos and polychlorinated biphenyls, also contribute to environmental diseases. Physical environmental factors Physical environmental factors include radioactive radiation, infrasound, noise, UV radiation and electromagnetic fields. These factors can also cause health problems. Examples of environmental diseases MCS (Multiple Chemical Sensitivity) Toxikologisch induzierter Toleranzverlust (TILT) Multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) is a medical term for increased sensitivity to various chemical substances that would not normally cause health problems at low concentrations. This sensitivity leads to symptoms that can manifest in various organ and systemic systems of the body. It is important to know that these symptoms occur when levels of these chemical substances are well below levels considered harmful to most people. In addition, in people with MCS, the body's ability to detoxify is impaired. In the past, MCS has often been associated with psychosomatic elements. This may be because neuropsychological symptoms are often prominent and because women are more commonly affected by MCS (for various reasons). Unfortunately, this has led to some stigmatization of women suffering from MCS, and their complaints have often not been taken seriously. Environmental diseases are now being intensively discussed and researched worldwide and those affected are taken seriously in their suffering. Learn more Toxicologically induced loss of tolerance (TILT) is a two-stage disease process. It affects a specific group of people who are prone to a variety of symptoms and new intolerances after a large amount of chemical substances or repeated minor exposures. Symptoms of TILT may include: fatigue Headache weakness skin rash Mood swings Memory problems Difficulty concentrating (often referred to as "brain fog" or brain fog) Breathing problems Unlike known disease mechanisms such as cancer or hormonal imbalances, which develop gradually, the explanation for TILT does not fit into standard toxicology or allergy research. TILT takes place in two phases: Initiation (Phase I) This phase begins when a person is exposed to certain chemicals that normally affect the immune system and/or nervous system. In this phase, the chemical must interact with one or both of these systems in a way that makes the person sensitive to future triggers. Triggering (Phase II) After initiation, affected individuals are no longer able to tolerate everyday exposures to various chemical substances, even those that they previously tolerated well. These can be various things such as fragrances, cleaning products, smoke, certain foods or medications, and even materials that come into contact with the skin. Exposure to these triggers results in the symptoms mentioned above. Even foods and medications that were previously tolerated can now trigger symptoms. Overall, TILT causes the body to become hypersensitive to many different substances, which can lead to a variety of health problems.

Symptoms Environmental toxins can cause different symptoms and health consequences, depending on the type of toxin and the exposure time (how long one was exposed to the toxin). Here are some common symptoms: Respiratory problems Some environmental toxins, such as air pollutants and smoke, can cause respiratory problems such as coughing, shortness of breath and asthma. Skin problems Exposure to certain chemicals or pollutants may cause skin irritation, rashes or dermatitis. Gastrointestinal complaints Ingesting contaminated water or food can cause gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Headache and dizziness Some toxins can cause neurological symptoms such as headaches, dizziness and confusion. Reproductive problems Some environmental toxins can affect fertility and cause reproductive problems. Allergic reaction Some people may develop allergic reactions to certain environmental toxins. Long-term exposure to environmental toxins can cause significant health problems, including Cancer, organ failure andserious neurological disorders . Other long-term consequences can include: depression miscarriage sleep disorders Metabolic diseases (leaky gut syndrome) It is important to note that the symptoms and consequences of environmental toxins can vary depending on individual sensitivity as well as ability to detoxify, length of exposure, and type of toxin. Long-term health consequences Treatment of environmental diseases The treatment of environmental diseases is very individual as the triggers and symptoms can vary from person to person. Some approaches are listed below: Avoiding triggers The first step in managing environmental illnesses is to identify triggers and minimize exposure to them. This may mean removing or avoiding certain foods, chemicals, fragrances, or other substances from the immediate environment. Environmental control Improving air quality in your home and work environment can help reduce symptoms. This may include removing sources of pollution, using air purifiers, and improving ventilation. Nutrition A well-thought-out diet can help control symptoms. A nutritionist can help you create a diet tailored to your specific intolerances. Supportive therapy Some patients benefit from supportive therapy approaches aimed at relieving symptoms. This includes the use of pain relievers, antihistamines, or other medications that may be prescribed depending on individual needs. Psychological support Since environmental illnesses are often associated with psychological stress, support from a psychologist or psychiatrist can be helpful in dealing with the emotional challenges of the illness. detoxification INUSpherese® therapy is an advanced method for purifying blood plasma, also known as environmental apheresis. By using intelligent filter systems, INUSpherese® offers an individually adapted detoxification method that is also gentle on the patients. INUSpheresis® INUSpherese® for environmental diseases INUSpheresis® aims to strengthen the immune system and support the body's own self-healing powers. This is done by clearing the blood plasma of harmful substances, such as pathogens and environmental toxins, which normally stress the immune system and can severely impact overall health. The use of INUSpheresis® is particularly relevant for people who suffer from chronic inflammation, autoimmune diseases or environmental stress. This therapy can help to significantly improve the quality of life of these patients. It is advisable to work with a specialized medical professional who will help develop a tailored treatment strategy and find the optimal solution for the individual situation. As a certified INUSpheresis® center, ELLANN® specializes in the treatment of environmental diseases and offers you professional support from diagnosis to therapy and subsequent prevention. Find out more about this under Treatment or arrange a personal consultation. Treatment Personal appointment The method of therapeutic apharesis has been mentioned in over 21,000 scientific studies (PubMed, January 2021). Also the therapy concept The German Environmental Study on Health, also abbreviated as GerES, is a comprehensive study of the pollution levels of the population in Germany. This study has been carried out at regular intervals by the Federal Environment Agency since 1985. GerES VI (2023–2024): Research teams are currently collecting current data on the environmental impact of the adult population across Germany on behalf of the UBA. The teams visit the participants at home and collect urine and blood samples, conduct interviews and take samples of, among other things, drinking water, house dust and indoor air.

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
