Interview with Rath International in August 2001

Experience expert Tjarko Holtjer
"Without Cellular Medicine my life would be looking less good"

The health Network of dr. Rath knows a lot of advisers. People who are trying to convince others from the working of highly dosed vitamins and other nutritional supplements. Rath Internation searched one of these advisers. A short acquaintance with adviser and computer science expert Tjarko Holtjer.

The beginning
The appartment of Tjarko Holtjer is well fit up. His daughter (20 months) welcomes us with visible joy. The reason for visiting mr. Holtjer lays in his involvement with the network. He explains: "After reading dr. Rath's bestseller 'Why animals don't get heart attacks - but we people do' I was convinced. I decided to co-operate with dr. Rath's health nettwork. I didn't succeed directly in doing that. I only started to take highly dosed vitamin supplements from the drugstore. In the end I managed to enter the network of dr. Rath. Since september last year (2000) I use the vitamins of dr. Rath and I must say I feel a lot better by doing so."

Manic Depression (Bipolar disorder)
Tjarko Holtjer doesn't make a secret from the fact he is suffering from bipolar disorder. In 1997 he was diagnosed to suffer from this disease. Since then he used to take lithium. Last year (2000) Holtjer got physical complaints. Research in the hospital couldn't retrieve the cause. Holtjer: "After that I started taking the products of dr. Rath and it just feels right. Formerly the veins on my hands used to lay upon the hands, but since using the vitamins they use to reside within the skin and that looks a lot better. My heartrhytm problems have disappeared by using the vitamins. I dare to pull through a little bit more, for example while playing badminton. Real top-sports I consider being out of proportion, but I can do a lot nowadays!"

Convincing
Tjarko Holtjer is a practice example from the excellent working of the dietary supplements from dr. Rath. He used to take other supplements, but the well-balanced products of dr. Rath simply work better, according to Holtjer. As adviser in the health network his starting point is that people should take their own responsibility for their health. Holtjer: "I noticed a few people with whom I am going to have a talk with. It is a pity that many people cannot put away their scepticism. Many people tend to think they are living healthy by eating an orange from time to time. People are very easy in respect to their health. They tend to go to a doctor to receive a solution for their little health problem. The whole holistic story about what our body really needs in order to stay healthy is mostly hard to tell people."

His wife and parents-in-law started taking the vitamins already. Holtjer notices about the danger that people can get the idea to stop taking the supplements because of feeling good: "That the highly dosed dietary supplements are the cause of that 'feeling better' they don't realize at that moment."

The obtained success
Pleasantly surprised was Holtjer with the obtained success from dr. Rath and the health network in Brussels. He thinks it to be ridiculous that there are plans anyway to stop vitamin freedom. He thinks the battle will result into free obtainable supplements in the whole world. The fact that he supports the open letter from dr. Rath is obvious.

Manipulated research
Some Dutch neurologists declared lately on Dutch television that some colleges are manipulating scientific research for earning money. Tjarko Holtjer is not surprised. He knows the mechanism from nearby. An acquaintance of him studies medicine and is on parties on the expenses of companies. Most of them don't like it at all, but they have to go there otherwise their carrier as a doctor is ruined.

Advising
Holtjer thinks it is important to tell people about things that can influence their health. Holtjer: "It is their own responsibility at a certain time, but they cannot tell I didn't notice them. People who got a heart attack can be very stubborn. They think the vitamins can't help them anymore, while it could be helping just that piece of the heart, that is still pumping. It is hard sometimes, but more than reach the information to somebody you cannot do. The rest they have to do theirselves."
