Dr. Rath's Scientific Discoveries

During his career, Dr. Rath has made scientific discoveries that rank among the most important in medicine. His medical breakthroughs will improve the health and lives of people for generations to come.

  • Heart Disease and Other Cardiovascular Conditions
    One of Dr. Rath’s most significant medical breakthroughs is his discovery that coronary heart disease is an early form of scurvy caused by a chronic deficiency of essential nutrients in the cells composing the vascular wall. This discovery also identifies long-term deficiencies of essential cellular nutrients as the root cause of other cardiovascular conditions, including heart failure, irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure and circulatory problems in diabetes.
  • Cancer
    In a medical breakthrough that will change how cancer is treated, Dr. Rath discovered that the amino acid lysine acts as a natural inhibitor of collagen digestion. When combined with other specific nutrients in balanced quantities, lysine blocks the enzymes that cancer cells secrete to dissolve connective tissue and facilitate their spread.
  • Cellular Medicine
    Dr. Rath’s Cellular Medicine approach is a new branch of medicine that scientifically establishes nutrient deficiencies as the root cause of today’s most common diseases. Cellular Medicine identifies the optimum daily intake levels of essential nutrients for disease prevention and treatment.
