What is Homotoxicology?

Hans Reckeweg

Toxicology is a branch of medical biology concerned with the study of the adverse effects of chemicals on the body. Homotoxicology is essentially an extension of this concept, where toxic substances are seen to disrupt normal biological function which results in the manifestation of symptoms and signs, and ultimately disease. It is the study of the influence of toxic substances on humans, and the removal of these toxins to regain natural regulation. According to the concepts of homotoxicology, human disease is the result of toxins which originate either from overproduction within the body, or from the environment in which we are exposed2.
