The therapies of the future –
already being performed in the Clinic DDr. Heinrich® today!
It usually takes quite a long time until you, as a patient, can benefit from new therapies. Approval procedures, expensive studies, economic interests of the pharmaceutical industry – all of these things can delay enjoying the benefits of innovative active ingredients that are nowadays already known among experts.
Of course, these procedures primarily serve to protect your health and safety, since it must be assured that the new product being offered at the market provides benefits and does not cause any harm. And this frequently takes a long time, in particular when it comes to newly developed chemical substances. The pharmaceutical companies are compensated for their effort through high prices and patent protection.
However, it is sometimes for economic reasons that influential companies show little interest in having new and reliable, but non-patentable active ingredients come onto the market, since these competing products would cause existing sources of income to run dry. For lack of patentability (e.g. in naturally occurring substances), it is simply not worth for the industry in some cases, to risk the existing market.
Even if you are an interested consumer, for legal reasons, you cannot simply become a customer of those reputable laboratories that are producing the new substances for research institutions. The only way that remains is buying over the Internet from foreign websites by prepayment or the illegal purchase under the table from fitness clubs, etc. If products are acquired from such sources, there is always the risk involved that something unusable will be delivered; but even if not: Who guarantees that the content and dosage in your specific case is correct?
For many years, we have been offering innovative active ingredients and therapies to our patients in our Clinic DDr. Heinrich® that are demonstrably effective and harmless, though have not yet been approved, but are legal within the framework of an individual medicine production (magistral medicine) and provided in highest quality.
This assumes that you are our patient and that we were able to specifically clarify questions about medical indication in your individual case. Subsequently, we can provide you with appropriate medications and highest quality active ingredients.
Natural Tanning by Means of Melanotropic (Pigmentation Enhancing) Substances
Is there anyone who would not want to be beautifully tanned without sunburn and without having to apply the annoying sun creams, crammed full with chemicals, on face and body every few hours?
Well, there’s already an alternative: Certain natural active substances (e.g. Melanotropin, Melanotan) that stimulate the autologous production of brown pigment in the skin. These substances are already used in custom therapies for the treatment of sun allergies. But, as many similar substances, they cannot be patented. Therefore, achieving high sales revenues with the active ingredients mentioned above is not possible and investments in multi-million dollar approval processes are unprofitable.
These natural substances are ideal to protect the skin from UV radiation and, despite the use of sunscreen, provide a beautiful, long-lasting tan without getting sunburned.
If these active ingredients would generally be approved for sun protection, it would threaten the cosmetics industry’s multi-billion dollar business with sun protection creams and after sun products, since they are effective, more convenient to use and less stressful than various sun creams with their chemical ingredients.
Some might argue that the cosmetics industry and their lobbies have been preventing their approval for years. In any case, there is currently no pharmaceutical company showing interest to pursue the expensive approval of effective, but non-patentable substances. Instead, pharmaceutical companies are working full speed on slightly modified active ingredients and hence, patentable active substances. We will keep you updated.
As patient of the Clinic DDr. Heinrich®, melanotropic substances for natural tanning are already available to you now.
