Mission Statement Nederlands

The objectives of VITALWORLD are in complete accordance with the WHO Definition of Health: "Health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity". It considers itself as part of the global "Health for All" movement, providing new strategies in the context of global "civilization, technology and economy related new risks" which pose new threats in achieving these objectives. However, we are not treating diseases. VITALWORLD underlines the educational character of her programs. It is inviting everybody to become involved in a learning process about Self Care. VITALWORLD considers as its responsibility:

To initiate, promote and support optimal health for everyone;

To make VITALWORLD Self Care educational project available to everybody worldwide;

To develop a health rather than a disease (symptom) oriented medicine, focusing on prevention, lifestyle, early diagnosis and treatment. A health and lifestyle oriented health care needs a health oriented medical-scientific foundation;

To establish an integral, ecological approach to health and disease, in which the interrelationship between phenomena is emphasized, rather than analysing, separating parts from the whole;

To explore the new scientific approach of "the flow system" (f.i. THE solution to "the metabolic syndrome") as the common denominator of health and disease, based on medical system theory;

To face the challenge of the threats of the 21st century, e.g. the civilization, technology, society and economy related disorders, as there are the "new risks", the ever increasing chronic diseases, environmental pollution, deficiencies, electro-stress, malnutrition, immune deficiencies and iatrogenic illnesses;

To prevent future epidemics like SARS, bird flu, swine virus e.g. mutated streptococcus and threats of other infectious diseases;

To be a crucial factor in an ageing society. Only Self Care and holistic health can achieve optimal well-being and regeneration;

To implement VITALWORLD educational programs on all levels: from primary health care, family and community health - medics and para-medics - clinical medicine to universities and the national health services;

To assist in developing a community infra-structure with self-reliance, training of local basic health consultants, a new public health care based;

To lay emphasis on women as the ones who prove to be most responsible for their health and that of their families e.g. communities;

To assist in related activities, organizations and institutions, e.g. organic agriculture, women programs, strengthening of local cultural identity, environmental awareness and nature conservation;

To introduce A New Health Care based on the three echelons of Self Care, holistic and technological medicine respectively;

To offer "Third World" countries an affordable, effective health care in which traditional and Western medicine are complementary;

The miracle is: all the know-how is already available. Let's thus create a truly effective global health care to the benefit of everyone;

We do this through offering the free Personal Health Plan; the Seven Steps toward health, the unique Flow System Therapy; the scientific foundation of medical system theory and the development of A New Health Care;

We offer the VITALWORLD Program to everyone worldwide, from the poor to the rich, a natural health care without any side-effects, cheap, comprehensive, simple, effective and in accordance with people's own inherent wisdom and experience;

The financing of our project will be largely based on the ancient Chinese system, whereby the doctor was paid as long as his people stayed healthy.

In practice: after having done our program and your health proves to have been (considerably) improved, then you are invited to give us a donation. This money will be used to extend our activities of eradicating all preventable disease out of this world.
