After gaining a medical degree from the Military Medical Academy in Łódź, he worked as a medical practitioner for the Polish Military, and in 1965 he was posted to the Military Sanatorium Centre in Ciechocinek, a famous health resort/spa town in central Poland. There, he spent most of his professional life, specialising in physical medicine, balneology and dietetics; later working in other sanatoria until his retirement.
Dr Kwaśniewski wrote close to one thousand press articles and authored eleven books. Some titles have been translated into English, German and Czech; translations to Russian, French, Bulgarian and Hungarian are currently under way.
Since 1967 Dr Kwaśniewski has immersed himself in studies of scientific principles of nutrition, and cultural/dietary determinants of health and disease. With that knowledge, he has created an original, ?mathematical? model of human nutrition - the so-called ?optimal nutrition? (ON), which is based on the rudimentary biochemistry and fundamental laws of science.
An equally ground-braking concept of Dr Kwaśniewski, as far as medical treatments are concerned, is selective stimulation of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) using specific electric currents, so-called ?selective currents? (SC). This form of treatment is based on the theoretical work of Austrian physiologist E. Henssage (published between 1951 and 1956).
Dr Kwaśniewski devised an electrical stimulator which can stimulate, locally or systemically, either the sympathetic or parasympathetic arm of the ANS. This form of stimulation enables a specific amendment of ANS dysfunction. Such dysfunction, which is also recognised in the Chinese medicine as an imbalance between Ying and Yang, is known to occur in many pathological states either locally, in a specific part of the body/organ, or systemically. Selective currents effectively remove the domination of either sympathetic or parasympathetic systems, which in all cases leads to improvement or abatement of disease symptoms, and in many cases to full recovery. Since their conception, selective currents have been adopted as treatment in many medical centres in Poland, and are being used predominantly as a powerful yet very safe adjunct to ON in the treatment of a number of so-called incurable diseases.
According to Dr Kwaśniewski, the pivotal aspect of ON is the ratio (1:3-3.5:0.8 )between the mass (not the caloric value) of principal dietary macronutrients (proteins, fats and carbohydrates) consumed on a daily basis. This proportion is dictated by a range of known factors including: the scientifically proven human nutritional requirements, the content of human breast milk from well-nourished mothers, dietary habits of long-lived shepherd peoples, as well as by the dietary guidelines passed-on by ancient scholars, e.g. via the Bible.
Equally importantly, the principles of ON also require that dietary proteins should be of the highest possible biological value, therefore those which are biochemically closest to the human body, i.e., of animal origin. Furthermore, the body ought to receive the energy in its the best and purest form, i.e., as ATP and other energy-rich compounds, and in the form of the best ?fuel?, i.e., as long-chain saturated fatty acids (mainly of animal origin), which provide the most energy per a unit of mass compared with other fuels, e.g., glucose. Dietary carbohydrates, complex rather than simple, should be limited to the amount, which prevents the formation of ketone bodies, i.e., approximately 0.8 g per kg of normal bodyweight, but they should be avoided as a ?fuel?. Therefore, in that model of nutrition, consumption of 1 g of high nutritional value animal protein is accompanied by the intake of 3 to 3.5 g of animal fat, and 0.8 g of starchy carbohydrate.
Determination of daily intake of macronutrients is based on the obligatory daily protein requirement, which is about 1 g per 1 kg of normal bodyweight. Consequently, a typical (not overweight) 70 kg person would need to consume 70 g of protein, around 210 g of fat and not more than 50 g of carbohydrate daily. For overweight or obese individuals, the amount of dietary fat should be reduced to 1.5-2 g per 1 g of protein until the weight loss is complete. Because the obligatory protein requirement is greater in children, in growing, post-puberty teenagers, and in highly physically active individuals, the protein intake should be increased to about 1.5 g per kg bodyweight. Also, carbohydrate intake should be increased in children to about 1.5-2 g per kg bodyweight.
Implementation of this model of nutrition, which delivers the lowest amounts of protein and energy compared with other types of nutrition without the necessity to limit the caloric intake, results in a virtual elimination of life-dominating sensations of hunger and thirst. It also produces certain psychosomatic changes, which result in the improvement of human intellect and responsiveness to stress stimuli, e.g, fear.
In 1974, Dr Kwaśniewski devised the program ?Optimisation of population?s nutrition?, which was at the time supported by the Premier of the Polish Government and one of the eminent Polish medical scientists Prof. Julian Aleksandrowicz. However, because of the popular boycott of ?experts?, the implementation of that program was postponed until more animal and human data became available. Animal studies, which were conducted by Prof. S. Berger in 1976 and Prof. H. Rafalski in 1978 -1979, indicated that the ON improves general development and learning ability, increases volume of brain on average by 8%, and leads to higher brain content of ATP, RNA, DNA and fats in rats. Animal studies conducted by Prof. H. Rafalski also showed that the ON has extraordinary anti-atherosclerotic properties and that it reverses experimentally induced atherosclerotic changes.
In 1981, a group of eleven eminent Polish scientists under the direction of Prof. H. Rafalski conducted clinical investigations of the effects of ON on coronary artery disease in middle-aged, mostly obese male patients who also suffered from other serious complaints. The study showed that the ON implemented over a period of 6 months caused a significant loss of weight in overweight subjects, did not cause any measurable negative, but produced measurable positive changes in patiens health. These changes included improvement of physical condition; improvement in functioning of cardiovascular system; abatement of symptoms of coronary heart disease; and an improvement in the function of the respiratory system. There was no evidence of ketosis, hypercholesterolemia, or hyperuricemia, which were considered the main reservations against the ON. Unfortunately, because of the political upheaval at the time, results of these studies were never published.
During the period between 1987 and 1990, Kwaśniewski operated a treatment centre named the Health Academy Arkadia. Using only ON and selective currents, the centre treated 1665 patients suffering from various so-called incurable diseases. In each and every case the improvement in the patient?s condition was observed and in many cases the treatment produced a full recovery within a period of weeks after the adoption of ON.
Over the last few years, more then 3500 patients have been successfully treated in the ON treatment centre in Jastrzebia Góra (near Gdańsk), one of many presently operating Arkadias in Poland. Of that group, 650 patients suffered from Type I or Type II diabetes and all of them showed marked improvement in their condition whilst undergoing treatment in that Arkadia, which resulted in substantial reductions in doses of insulin or oral medication. In many cases, including those of Type I diabetes, abatement of disease symptoms was observed in patients who continued ON following the termination of all forms of pharmacological treatment.
Clinical evidence accumulated by Kwaśniewski, and recently by many of his fellow medical practitioners, indicates that ON is the causal treatment of many serious diseases. Impressive results, including full recovery, have been observed after treatment with ON and SC of such degenerative ailments as multiple and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, thromboangiitis obliterans, ankylosing spondylitis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Rapid improvements and full recoveries have been routinely achieved in the treatment of diseases of digestive system such as stomach and duodenal ulcers, Crohn?s disease and other forms of inflammatory bowel disease, in liver ailments such as fatty liver and cirrhosis. Similar results including full abatement of symptoms are seen in various cardiovascular ailments including those caused by atherosclerosis and in cardiac insufficiency. A number of patients have experienced marked reductions in the size of an enlarged prostate, and medical practitioners in many ON treatment centres have also observed reduction in the size of various types of tumours. The most spectacular results of ON treatment include full recovery from 20 year-long Parkinson?s disease and from chromophilic tumour of adrenal in a child. The latter disorder was accompanied by an extremely high blood pressure and blood catecholamine?s levels 70-times greater than normal. Unfortunately, none of these results have been published thus far.
It is reliably estimated that at present ON has been permanently adopted by more than 2.5 million people, predominantly in Poland, but also in many other countries all over the world. In a great majority of those who adopted this model of nutrition, ON brought either a relief from symptoms or a cure of a variety of so-called incurable diseases, loss of excess body fat, significant enhancement in mental function, thus resulting in a marked improvement in the quality of life.
The proponents of ON instigated the formation of the Polish National Association of Optimal Brotherhoods, which at present unites over 60 regional Brotherhoods in Poland and a number of Brotherhoods in other countries. The main objective of the Association is the renewal of humanity into biologically healthy species, which is not subjected to constant assaults from various diseases, famine, self-inflicted destructive actions, thus is able to exist without wars, crime, or terrorism.
According to Kwaśniewski, ON is the only model of human nutrition, which can causally address the physical and psychological degeneration of human kind by reversing the pathological structure and function of the human brain, which in turn is behind the past and present problems of human kind, according to many contemporary and past scholars.
