Bio
Professor Ian Brighthope graduated with a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery in 1974. It was in the fields of plant and animal nutrition that Professor Brighthope became aware of the importance of optimum nutrition and the use of nutritional supplementation in animal production, the treatment of animal dysfunction and the potential of this approach in the prevention and treatment of human disease. Also, the addition of agricultural and food processing chemicals to the food chain concerned him, and this resulted in his investigating their harmful effects on human health in general, and in particular, the human nervous, immune and endocrine systems. Neglect of these areas of human care prompted him to adopt the nutritional and environmental medicine approaches in his medical practice, which was the first of its kind in Australia.
The Brighthope Clinics and Biocentres were developed in the 1970's. They specialised in Nutritional and Environmental Medicine with particular interests in cancer, heart disease, psychiatric diseases, learning and behaviour disorders, psychological disorders related to foods and chemicals, the chronic fatigue syndrome, arthritis, asthma, food and chemical sensitivities, auto-immune diseases, diabetes and the treatment of acute viral illnesses and other conditions with megadoses of intra[1]venous Vitamin C and other nutrients.
The antioxidant and intravenous Vitamin C clinics under his management were the first of their kind in Australia. They treated patients from all walks of life from all over the world. The Brighthope Clinic was the first Integrative Medicine Centre in Australia in which modalities such as herbal medicine, acupuncture, chiropractic, meditation, chelation therapy, intravenous nutritional therapies and others were integrated with mainstream and hospital medicine in the 1970's. In the early 1980's, he coined the term 'Integrative Medicine'. This term was adopted by the Australasian Integrative Medicine Association (AIMA), which has become a significant force in changing the practice of orthodox medicine in Australia. Professor Brighthope was closely involved in the establishment of Integrative Medicine in Australia.
As president of ACNEM, Professor Brighthope pioneered the first post-graduate medical course in nutrition in Australia and remained on the faculty as one of its principle lecturers from 1980 until 2007. In August 2007 he was awarded the Inaugural ACNEM award in recognition of more than 25 years of outstanding service in the field of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine including 25 years as founding President of the College. He initiated the ACNEM fellowship program and examinations and now plays a pivotal role in maintaining, as an official ambassador, ACNEM as the peak body in Nutritional and Environmental Medicine in Australia and Asia. A quality assurance and continuing medical education program is an integral part of the qualifying fellowship program. Professor Brighthope also edited the ACNEM newsletter from the beginning of the organisation and evolved it into the ACNEM Journal.
Professor Brighthope, in association with Professor Avni Sali, formed the Graduate School of Integrative Medicine at Swinburne University in 1996, at which he was honoured with a Full Professorship Professor Brighthope has published extensively for the general public and has appeared regularly in the media as an advocate of nutritional and environmental health. He is the author of 5 books and many scientific and medial lectures and reviews. His books have been endorsed by many luminaries, most notably the late Linus Pauling, the only person to have ever been awarded two unshared Nobel Prizes.
Professor Brighthope has acted as an advocate of doctors practicing Complementary Medicine for over 45 years. Professor Brighthope's lifelong ambition is to change the way medicine and healthcare is practiced for the benefit of the public and to see nutrition, nutritional and environmental medicine the building blocks and keystones to world health and peace. In 2019 he was made a director of the National Institute of Integrative Medicine in Melbourne, Australia.
Professor Brighthope is currently the Director of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine at the National Institute of Integrative Medicine in Melbourne , Australia. In August, 2022, frustrated with the damage being done by the mainstream medical authorities and politicians of all persuasions, he formed The WOW, The World Of Wellness International Limited, a public support and educational organisation. He is also on the board of the World Council for Health (Australian) and the spokesperson/adviser to the Aligned Council of Australia.
Professor Brighthope continues to campaign for the best of health care and world peace.
