An Overview of Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation (UBI) Therapy
What is Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation
Science has recognized the sun’s healing abilities for centuries.
It can eliminate bacteria, heal infections, and energize the body.
Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation Therapy (UBI) harnesses the sun's healing potential by directly infusing its rays into their bloodstream.
This therapy has profound photochemical, biochemical, and physiological effects, offering significant benefits across a wide range of diseases.
During the 1940s and 1950s, UBI was routinely employed to address medical conditions such as tuberculosis, infections, cancer, and pneumonia. However, with the widespread adoption of antibiotics in modern medicine, the use of UBI declined.
As the concern for antibiotic resistance continues to increase, there is a renewed interest in natural therapies and a resurgence in the popularity of UBI.
Ultraviolet blood irradiation (UBI) is a safe and effective medical procedure that kills bacteria and viruses while boosting the immune system and rejuvenating the blood.
How is UBI conducted?
The patient's blood is drawn and then passed through a device that exposes it to sanitizing ultraviolet rays before being returned to the patient's vein by doctors.
Ultraviolet light's photonic energy kills bacteria and viruses while increasing the amount of oxygen in the bloodstream.
UBI aids in the fight against infection by generating a strong internal response without the use of external antibiotics, which harm gut flora.
The number of UBI sessions required may vary depending on the individual patient's health, the length of the illness, and the severity of the disease.
People who receive UBI may notice an increase in energy, a better overall mood, and a reduction in symptoms.
Symptoms of illness may worsen a day to two weeks after the procedure. This is due to an increase in immune system function, which may cause any external pathogens in the blood to 'die off.' This process of death is also known as a Herxheimer reaction.
A typical UBI treatment might include re-circulating 100ccs of blood through the machine, which takes about 30-45 minutes. Depending on the severity and type of disorder being treated, a doctor may recommend up to 3-4 treatments per week for several weeks.
The procedure is usually painless, and everyday activities can resume after that treatment.
UBI Therapy
Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation Benefits
· Heightens the body's immune response
· Powerful anti-inflammatory and anti-infection effects
· Improves circulation
· Oxygenation of tissues
· Balancing effect (homeostasis)
· Reduction of tissue pain
· Increased immune and pain tolerance to radiation or chemotherapy
· Cardiovascular protection through increased metabolism of cholesterol, uric acid, and glucose
· Stimulation for production of red blood cells
· Improvement in the flow and properties of the blood
What are UBI side effects?
Pain and bruising at the injection site are the most common side effects. Herxheimer reactions, infection at the puncture site, and prolonged bleeding times are rare side effects.
Medical Research on UBI Therapy
According to published research, UBI therapy can be used clinically as a specific (psoriasis, lymph cancer) and non-specific immune-modulating therapy (chronic infections, chronic fatigue, auto-immune diseases).
UBI has an 80% success rate, with the majority of patients reporting an improvement in their overall health.
According to a scientific study published in 2016, the decline in UBI was caused by the development of antibiotics.
The search for cures to decades of viral outbreaks, from HIV/AIDS to Ebola, from SARS and MERS, and SARS-CoV-2, brought UBI therapy back into medical consciousness. A study conducted in 2020 found that treating even a small amount of blood with UBI induced a significant immune system response.
UBI is in principle an immune-modulating therapy, which means it can also help with viral infections.
