Abstract
Abstract The innovative treatment methodologies for tuberculosis by the German physician Hermann Brehmer (1826-1889), established in the mid-19th century, achieved significant success and may offer valuable insights for the modern treatment of cachexia in AIDS and cancer. Brehmer's approach, which included hydrotherapy, a special diet, and rigorous physical activity, demonstrated impressive patient outcomes and highlighted the potential for integrating historical methods with contemporary therapeutic strategies. This paper provides a comprehensive understanding of Brehmer's methods, their evolution, and their potential applicability to modern chronic infectious diseases and conditions associated with cachexia, ensuring that the audience is well-informed and knowledgeable. By examining the interplay between nutrition, physical activity, and immune function, a holistic approach is proposed that combines Brehmer’s principles with immunotherapy to optimize treatment outcomes for HIV, tuberculosis, and cancer patients.
