Dr. Petra is a naturopathic doctor certified in functional medicine. She practices Deutenomic medicine, which is the science of water movement in a body. She was born and raised in the Netherlands and moved to New York in her 20s. She has spent eight years in California where she graduated from Bastyr University in 2016. After four years of seeing patients in Santa Monica, she currently only consults patients via telemedicine. Since 2021, her credentials have also been recognized and certified in Hungary, which extends to most other European countries.

She is known for her in-depth research and detailed follow through on each and every one of her patients. Her passion for seeking truth guides her to understand how we can do better in restoring patients’ health.

Boros and colleagues published in 2016 “Submolecular regulation of cell transformation by deuterium depleting water exchange reactions in the tricarboxylic acid substrate cycle”

The role of deuterium in biology is a potential missing piece in the elusive cancer puzzle, explaining cancer epidemics in western populations as it seemingly correlates with excessive deuterium loading from processed carbohydrate intake in place of natural fat consumption.“ https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mehy.2015.11.016

In 2011, original data published in Cancer cell clearly implicated a deficiency of the mitochondrial metabolic enzyme fumarate hydratase as the cause of the glycolytic shift. They also demonstrated how restoration of the enzyme activity reversed glycolytic and tumorigenic features of the fumarate hydratase deficient cells.

The authors again demonstrated that the restoration of fumarate hydratase function leads towards a normal metabolic phenotype, rather than a lactic fermentation driven “Warburg”-like phenotype, without additional changes.
