===================================

Diseases of Circulatory System and Heart

Heart Attack
Causes:
Since the heart has to work perpetually. its muscles need continuous supply of blood. which is provided to them through coronary arteries. If for any reason, the coronary arteries become congested or is blocked, reduction of blood supply results to angina or heart attack. The basic reason of constriction of veins and arteries has not yet been determined but the fallowing are considered the main causes:

Old age, high blood pressure, cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, obesity, luxurious life style, grief, anxiety, anger and  addiction of drugs etc.

Symptoms:
Muscles of the heart are very sensitive, if the blood supply to these muscles is stopped for 30 minutes to 2 hours; the heart dies. The patient of heart attack suffers from great pains in the left side of the chest, which increases with movement and reduces with rest bu does not subside completely. Cold sweating, feeling weakness and difficulty in breathing accompanied with nausea and vomiting are also few of the symptoms. For exact diagnosis the medical science is using ECG.

Treatment:
1. Patient of the heart attack is to be hospitalized under the care of heart specialist. To cure the weakness Red Chromatized water, 2 ounces, is to be given after breakfast.
2. Turquoise-coloured Chromatized water, twice a day.
3. Yellow Chromatized water. before meals.
4. Orange Chromatizcd water after meals.
5. Follow the advice of the heart specialist.

———————————-

Low Blood Pressure
Causes:
Some people naturally have low blood pressure: it is not a disease. As a disorder, loss of blood, heart problem, affect of germs, nerve strain, grief, loose motions and voting can also cause low blood pressure.

Symptoms:
If the BP is 5 to 10 degrees than the normal level, one feels giddy and if fall further one enters a state of shock and feels drowsy. In such a case he is to be taken be the hospital immediately.

1 . Besides attending to the actual cause or the Low BP, give the patient Red Chromarized water, twice a day.
2 Patient is to be lied down under the Red lights, for 15 to 30 minutes.
=============================

Psychiatric Problems

Depression
Causes:
There are many reasons for this problem of depression, which could be; addiction of drugs, sudden quitting any such habit, protracted illness, worries and remaining in a state or grief etc. If a patient according to the psychiatrists, remains
continuously in this state for two weeks only then he could be declared as a patient of depression otherwise it would be considered just as a passing state of mind.
Symptoms:
The patient of this disease remains sad, and unhappy and resulting his melancholy he loses interest in tile, becomes isolated, either gains weight or starts losing it, remains anxious and restless, ability to think properly diminishes and feel like committing suicide.

3. Yellow Chrormatized water, twice a day in the afternoon.
================================

Gynecological Diseases

Hypo-lactation
Causes:
Sometime milk is not produced in the breasts to fulfill the needs of the baby. Deficiency of prolactine hormone, which is excreted by Pituitary Gland and weakness of the mother’s health are the main causes of this problem.
Treatment:
1. Red Chromauzed water. twice a day.
2. Orange Chrornatized water, after meals.
3. Violet light upon the head for ten minutes.
==============================

Dandruff

Causes:
Rich, fatty and fried foods and use of salt excessively, bathing with hot water are few of the causes of this problem.
Symptoms:
White scaly particles are there on the scalp, which do not look nice,
Treatment:
I. Blue Chromatized water, twice a day.
2. Orange Chromatized water, after lunch.
3. Green Chromatized water after dinner.
4. Massage the hair oil, which is charged in the moonlight. Glu-e-sabz(an oil)  is herbal hair oil that has heen charged in the moonlight.

=============================

Sexual Diseases

Spermatorrhoea
Causes:
Excessive indulgence of sexual intercourse,masturbation and sensitivity of the penis. use of alcohol. kidney stones, constipation, irritation of gallbladder, excessive consumption of meat etc are few of the causes
Symptoms:
If it is due to kidney stones, constipation. irritation of gallbladder, few drops of seminal fluid follow urination, Strong and potent diet can cause discharge of seminal fluid, Masturbation and excessive indulgence in sex activities renders a
patient lethargic, lazy and feels pains in the body, complains burning and irritation when urinates, passes urine excessively and repeatedly, back aches, nerves and muscles grow weak, physical weakness and debility, looses temperament easily, loss of
memory, dullness, doesn’t have good sleep, loss of appetite, sex desire initially surges and subsides, usually suffers from constipation, merely the thought of sexual intercourse causes the discharge.

Treatment:
1. Olive-coloured Chrornatizcd water. twice a day
2. If constipation is there, Yellow Chromatized water, twice a day
3. Green Chromatized water. twice a day.
4. Massage Violet Chromatized oil upon the lower back. in circles
5. Massage of yellow Chromatized oil on and around the naval point. early in the morning before break fast.

——————–
Masturbation
Resulting excessive discharges, mind and the body grow weak, repeated and burning urinations, veins of the penis swell, lethargy and laziness, feels depressed, doesn’t feel like working, avoids company and wants to remain alone. Such person does not want to face people because of self pitting, grows pale, has dark shade under the eyes. eyesight dims, and has headaches frequently.

3. In the morning, massage Blue Chromatized oil in circles at hip joint in the lower back.
4. Before going to bed. massage Violet Chrornatized oil over the bladder
5. To treat the constipation and gas, massage abdomen with Yellow ointment.
———————-
Impotency
Causes:
Mostly it is psychological, lack of testosterone hormones, protracted ailments like shrinkage of liver, cancer in any pan of the body, heart problem or diabetes, Sex stimulation almost comes to an end in the people who cautiously practice celibacy for a long time, they are not impotents. when the sex stimuli are reactivated they perform their sex obligations quite normally. Women also suffer from the deprivation of the sex desires and feel aversion from the sexual activities or they feel scared of this act.

NB: It is the duty of parents and teachers to provide the necessary information to the young generation and tell the boys and girls about the hazards of too much involvement and aversions.

Treatment:
Besides treating the impotency, that disease should also be treated that is causing it. See Diabetes, Heart Diseases and Cancer etc.
1. Violet Chromatized water, twice a day, till curing and then just once at night.
2 Massage Violet Chromatized oil, twice a day, at the lower back.
3. Dark Blue Chromatized water. twice a day.
4. Red Chromatized water. after meals.
5. For the deficiency of hormones; massage Red Chrornatized oil, twice a day, on the calves and in the groin.
———————
Premature Ejaculation
Causes:
Over-worrying, masturbation, sex literature, perverted thinking and due to dilution of the seminal fluid are the major causes of this problem. Besides treating the problem, such diet is recommended that could increase the viscosity of the semen.

Basically, success or failure in the sexual intercourse is directly related to with the mind. When mind remains occupied with negative thoughts, the nerves get affected and due to loss of moderation and balance, this problem finds its way in.

Peace of mind and heart boosts the will power and the sex becomes a natural activity.

Symptoms:
Immediate discharge at the time of sexual intercourse and at times, it discharges even before the erection is complete and this cause feeling of shame.

Treatment:
I. Olive colour Chromatized water, twice a day.
2. Sky Blue Chromatized water, after meals,
3. Massage violet oil in circles at lower back, initially twice and upon getting better just once a day.
4. Dark Blue Chromatized water, before meals.
5. If excess of red is noticed, green Chrornatized water. before meals.
==============================

AIDS

Causes:
HIV Virus (Human Immune Deficiency Virus) causes the disease of Acquired Immunization. Deficiency Syndrome or AIDS, It severely damages the immune system of the patient and he suffers from one or the disease In quick succession.

This virus transfers due to blood transfusion, from mother to child and unnatural sexual activities. Its symptoms may manifest in two years or take ten. It is not incurable. lts treatment needs persistent caring and regularity.

Treatment:
Sky Blue Chromatized water. twice a day,
Yellow Chromatized water, before meals.
Green Chromatized water, after meals.
Red Chromatized water, twice a day.
Violet light in the armpits, for ten to fifteen minutes, before going to bed.
Get a 6 x 9 inches transparent glass sheet painted in dark green and make the patient to look at it for 15 minutes, once in the morning and once in the evening.
Massage Blue Chrornatized oil upon the joints of the neck and Violet Chromatized oil upon the lower back joints, for five minutes each, in anti-clock wise circular movements, once in the morning and once in the evening,
Massage Turquoise Colour Chromatized oil, in the armpits and groin, using the right hand thumb, for five minutes each.
============================

Cancer

Causes:
Cancer is the disease that results from the harm to the blood. When a person is trapped in few specific thoughts and finds no way to get out of them, the electric current responsible for our actions turns poisonous and starts causing infection in the blood. Resulting from imbalanced flow of currents, ultra microscopic viruses are produced in the blood. These viruses  accumulate at one place and start consuming that electric current which is an essential need for the functioning of life. These viruses feed themselves upon the R B. Cs (Red Blood Corpuscles) causing leukemia, in which the White Corpuscles of blood and tissues exceed the limit. Body tries to get rid of these excessive Corpuscles in the form of various secretions. This results in overall weakness and man turns into a skinny skeleton and finally embraces death.

In another type of cancer because of accumulation of viruses, veins and arteries of the patient are damaged. This destroys the entire circulatory system, which ultimately results in death of the patient.

Cancer is of many types: it could be affecting only one part or the limb or a system of the body.

Symptoms:
Since the electric current of the red colour is the food or the Cancer: the cancer consumes the electric current present in the Red Blood Corpuscles: the patient is deprived of the Vital energy needed for the maintenance of life. The patient looks pale and complains about pains especialy’ in the affected area.

Treatment:
1. The atmosphere around the patient is required to be made red, i.e., the room where the patient lives, its walls, curtains, bed sheets, pillowscovers and even the clothes of the patients should be red.
2. Red light upon the body for upto 15 minutes several times a day.
3. Red Chromatized water, 3-5 times a day.
4. Massage Red Chromatized oil upon the back of the trunk, thighs and calves, once a day.
5. Tell the patient that this disease is curable and he has to use his will power to overpower it.

The Genesis of Acids and Alkalis

Posted by: Meds | Comments (0)

In ancient times, the Egyptians and Greeks defined certain substances based upon their taste.  Both the Greeks and the Egyptians had discovered that one particular substance was very sour.  This became to be known as vinegar, which was produced from the fermentation of fruits to produce wine.  Therefore, a new categorization of substances was developed that included all things that were sour. 

The Greeks were also familiar with a different category of substances.  They found three slippery substances left behind as residue after burning certain materials.  These three substances were:  potash, soda, and lime.  Potash, which must have been the first to be discovered, was produced from wood ashes.  When some waters were produced and allowed to evaporate, the film left behind was soda.  Lime was produced from burning seashells.  Ultimately, the Greeks discovered a new category to define substances based upon the property of feeling slippery. 

In 1386, to build on the Greek’s definition of sour or slippery, a new terminology was developed to speak about things that felt slippery.  From the Arabic word al-qaliy, which means “the ashes”, the term alkaline was developed.  This word was then used to speak about things that felt slippery. 

During the middle ages, the advancement towards defining sour and slippery substances was slow.  European trading with China led to the introduction of the highly valued clothing good, silk.  During the 16th century in France, fabric dyers found that when particular chemicals were added to the dying agent, the colors became more vibrant and even changed colors.  Deeper and richer colors could be produced by adding these chemicals to the dying vats.  The dyers noticed that when one chemical was added to the vat, it turned the dye a red color.  On the other hand, when a different chemical was added to the vat, it turned the dye to a bluish-green color. 

The fabric workers understood that certain substances changed the color and intensity of the dyes used in the industry. At that time they did not need to know how it worked; they just needed to know that the dyes changed colors.  For this reason, the fabric workers did not know that the dyes introduced another method for distinguishing between substances the Greeks defined as sour and slippery.  Also, there was not a good understanding of the definition of alkaline, except that alkali substances were slippery. Therefore, the phenomenon was overlooked by the fabric workers and science all together.

As trading with China’s silk continued, Europeans were also obtaining precious metals such as gold and silver.  However, these metals were often mixed together to produce an alloy.  In 1626, an attempt to separate gold from silver led to an important advancement towards understanding substances that were only definable by their taste and texture.  It was found that the sour substances defined by the Greeks also could dissolve silver.  When a sour substance was added to the gold/silver alloy and allowed to boil, the silver dissolved.  After the solid gold pieces were removed, the silver was then re-obtained by allowing the sour substance to boil away.  This discovery of the dissolving properties of sour tasting substances led to a new terminology.  From the Latin word acidus, which means “sour”, the term acid was developed.  This term was then used to define sour tasting substances that had dissolving properties. 

Johann Rudolph Glauber began as a pharmacist; however, he soon changed his line of work and became an alchemist.  Living in Amsterdam, Glauber ran many experiments concerning acids and alkalis, which were not yet distinctly defined.  In his laboratory, he ran many experiments and observed their reactions.  A few significant discoveries Glauber made were that of spiritus salis (hydrochloric acid), spirit of alum (sulfuric acid), and spiritus acidus nitri (nitric acid).  Spirit of alum and spiritus acidus nitri were used for separating gold and silver; however, he was the first to produce concentrated amounts of either chemical.  From his experiments of these three compounds with various chemicals, Glauber noticed that some chemicals reacted violently with one another producing an effervescence effect. 

 In 1658, he described these violent reactions as being a “battle”:

“When nitri fixi (potassium carbonate, a base) is added to spiritom nitri (nitric acid)…the spiritus acidus and liquior fixus have slain each other”

The fact that acids and alkalis “battle” one another is not the only significant discovery made by Glauber.  Also in 1658, Glauber noted that when an acid and an alkali react, they produce a new kind of compound called a salt:

“Liquor fixus (potassium hydroxide alkali) and spiritus acidus nitri (nitric acid) are in their nature…totally unlike, foes and adversaries of each other…and when the two are brought together…and the one part has overcome and killed the other, neither liquor nor a spiritus acidus can be found in their dead bodies, but the same has been made, as both were before and from which they were derived, namely ordinary saltpeter (potassium nitrate salt).”

This observation that an acid and alkali react to yield a salt was a big advancement in acid-alkali alchemy.  In fact, this led Glauber to find another important chemical salt.  From one of his experiments, Glauber found that when spirit of alum (sulfuric acid) was reacted with ordinary table salt,  a new salt was produced.  This salt was sal mirabilis (sodium sulfate), which was also called Glauber’s salt.  By producing many unattained compounds (hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, sulfuric acid, sodium sulfate, etc.), Glauber’s contributions to alchemy were very important. 

With the discoveries presented by Glauber, the chemical world added another terminology that was now broken into three categories:  acid, alkali, and salt.  What are the properties of these three categories that make them different from one another?

Robert Boyle was born in Ireland where he grew up until he was eight years old.  He was then sent to school and traveled around Europe with a French tutor.  After his stint of traveling and studying, Boyle returned to Ireland where he joined the Invisible College.  The Invisible College was not actually a college at all; it was a group of prominent philosophers who inquired about questions relevant to the time period.  This group later became the Royal Society of London for the Improvement of Natural Knowledge after it had been granted by the King of England.  Boyle was named to the council and held an important role in the Royal Society. 

During the 17th century, the majority view of compounds suggested that all chemical compounds are composed of the same four elements:  fire, earth, water, and air.  For example, when a log is burned in a fire, it leads to the four elements.  The log begins to combust (fire), sap flows from the wood (water), smoke rises from the log (air), and the ashes (earth) are left behind after the log is finished burning.  Boyle disagreed with this hypothesis and suggested that differences in compounds were to “different textures” (configuration and cohesion of different elements).  For this reason and many others, Boyle was known as the “skeptical chemist”.  In fact, Boyle wrote his first book The Skeptical Chemist, which questioned the majority views of alchemy. 

Boyle found Glauber’s work interesting.  The new category of salts intrigued him and helped to support his hypothesis that not everything is composed of the same four elements.  Boyle began experimenting with acids and alkalis.  From his experiments, he was able to fit a better definition of an acid and alkali.  On top of what the Greeks and Egyptians defined as being sour and what metal purifiers noted as excellent solvents, Boyle added that acids could also precipitate certain substances.  Acids were very good in precipitating sulfur.  On top of what the Greeks defined as being slippery, Boyle noticed that alkalis also contained “detergent properties”.  Alkalis were also good at dissolving sulfur and oils; and just like Glauber, he found that alkalis were good at counteracting the properties of acids.  He also noticed that some chemicals do not fit into the category of an acid or alkali. 

Boyle continued his research of acids and alkalis and began to conduct experiments concerning how to identify an acid or alkali using indicators.  He set up a number of different experiments which he published in his 1664 book Experimental History of Colours.  Boyle knew from the French silk dyers that dyes were made from plant juices, so he began to experiment with the affects of acids on certain plant juices.  He discovered what the French dyers had known a century before, only now he understood why the phenomenon they observed occurred.  He noted that when an acid is placed in a jar containing a purple plant juice, the solution becomes red.  Also, when an alkali is reacted with the same purple plant juice, the solution becomes bluish-green.  Boyle had rediscovered an interesting and useful means of testing if a chemical was acidic or alkaline. 

The development of acid and alkali indicators did not stop there.  Boyle began to create small pieces of paper that had been soaked in lichens juice.  After the paper had been removed from the juice and dried, it became a soft purple color.  When the paper is touched to something acidic in character, the paper becomes red.  Likewise, when the paper is touched to something alkaline in character, it becomes bluish-green.  This new technique uses the same concept as the plant juice testing, but it is made much simpler by touching paper to the sample.

As sports nutrition is becoming more and more an interesting and in-demand field in scientific study, venues to expose and encourage developments have been established. There are several journals related to sports nutrition. The following are some examples:

International Journal of Sport Nutrition & Exercise Metabolism

IJSNEM  offers information on sports nutrition and exercise metabolism by publishing original scientific investigations, scholarly reviews and articles which focus on the application of the principles of biochemistry, physiology, and nutrition to sport and exercise.

Although sport nutrition today is a distinct academic and applied field of work, it receives input from-and makes contributions to-fields like nutrition, physiology, biochemistry, psychology, clinical medicine, and the sport and exercise sciences.

These perspectives are welcomed and encouraged in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism (IJSNEM). The journal now serves as a forum for the publication of scholarly and applied work regarding the nutritional, biochemical, and molecular aspects of exercise science.

Original researches with human subjects are given top priority in IJSNEM but relevant researches with experimental animals are also submitted. Case studies showing systematic, rather than casual observation conducted with appropriate instrumentation will be accepted. Articles with clinical application are also included. Aside from these, editorials, digests of related articles from other fields, research notes, and reviews of books, videos, and other media releases are offered in the journal.

International Journal of Sports Physiology and Performance

IJSPP is an international peer-reviewed journal focused on sports physiology and performance. It aims to advance the knowledge of sport and exercise physiologists, sports-performance researchers, and other sports scientists by examining and publishing practical and research aspects of sports physiology and sports performance.

Articles in sport physiology and related disciplines that have connections with enhancing sport performance, preventing decrements in performance, or enhancing recovery of athletes are featured in IJSPP. The journal publishes original research reports, invited reviews, commentaries, technical reports, case studies.  There is also an editorial section.

Usual topics in IJSPP include team sports, individual sports, performance aspects of environmental physiology, applied sports nutrition, strength and conditioning, biomedical science, and applications of sport technology. Readership include sport scientists, sport physicians, coaches, academic researchers, students, and related professionals.

Controlled experimental and observational researches as long as they are comprehensive or systematic and appropriate standards of scientific methodology and analysis are met are welcome.

Motor Control (MC)

Motor Control is an international journal has been created for information exchange on the control of human movement through a lifespan. The journal provides reports to keep readers abreast of current developments in the field of motor control as well as motor disorders.

MC publishes various types of research papers: clinical experimental, modeling and theoretical studies. Varied disciplines complement each other in this publication: biomechanics, kinesiology, neurophysiology, neuroscience, psychology, physical medicine, and rehabilitation. Aside from research papers, review articles, quick communications, commentaries, target articles, and book reviews are also featured.

Contribution to the understanding of movement control should be clearly demonstrated in an article for it to be published.

Quest

Each issue of Quest examines critical issues facing physical educators in secondary schools and research developments in the sport sciences and other sub-disciplines of human movement. Theoretical explorations to applied studies in this journal synthesize research to help advance the field of physical activity.

Quest does not publish original research reports on professional development of physical education but welcomes articles that are based on, complement, or review empirical research related to it. Quest considers both theoretical and practical articles. Readers includes academicians, teachers, and administrators

The Journal of Applied biomechanics

(JAB) is a quarterly journal dedicated to the study of human biomechanics in sport, exercise, and rehabilitation. The reader will find research articles, clinical studies, and other pertinent information highlighting current advances in biomechanics in each issue.

The effect and control of forces that act on and are produced by the human body are highlighted in JAB. Studies related to modeling and human movement simulation and to the effects of internal and external forces like nutrition on body structures during skill development and rehabilitation are also appropriate.

Original research reports, invited review papers, and “target” articles on selected current issues in the field are published. Jab also contains book reviews, technical notes, an editorial section, and other special features.

This interview is an excerpt from Kevin Gianni’s The Healthiest Year of Your Life Program which can be found at http://thehealthiestyearofyourlife.com. In this excerpt, Dr. Mark Hyman, M.D. shares on the Functional Medicine Model and his experiences as a doctor and a patient that led him to embrace it.

The Healthiest Year of Your Life Excerpt with Dr. Mark Hyman, M.D., a best-selling author, a respected medical consultant and a leader in the field of functional medicine.

Kevin: Welcome, everyone, to this first installment of The Healthiest Year of Your Life Program. You’re in for a treat tonight, I promise. My guest is Dr. Mark Hyman, M.D., who is a respected medical consultant, New York Times best-selling author and a leader in the emerging field of functional medicine. Functional medicine is ideal medicine made real. It is a new medical model, a more successful way of treating human illness and disease born of recent technological and clinical advances applied in a fresh methodology. As Dr. Hyman says, “the future of medicine available now.” Functional medicine moves beyond diagnosis-based medicine to allow treatment of the underlying causes of disease. It works with the body’s natural forces to achieve what Dr. Hyman calls ultra wellness, lifelong good health and vitality. Doesn’t that sound good?

So what I want to do now is welcome Dr. Hyman to the program. This is exciting. You’re one of my own personal heroes in terms of medicine and I’ve read all your books and I’m really excited to have you here.

Mark: Well, it’s a great opportunity to be able to talk about the work I do and it’s really grown out of my own experience of being sick and my own patients and learning a whole new field, called functional medicine.

Kevin: Well, why don’t you talk a little bit about how you got here and your story from when you first started and now, how it’s developed into functional medicine?

Mark: Well, actually my original development started way back when I was in college where I was very interested in Chinese and Asian studies and actually the ancient healing systems of China. I learned Chinese and then I actually became a yoga teacher and way before I went to medical school I was very interested in health and was a vegetarian and actually thought I was going to go into medicine to do this kind of work in the first place.

So I had this sort of in my mind right from the beginning and then I slowly got into medical school and sort of got brainwashed little bit and took on the medical model fairly strongly, because it was pretty convincing model. Over the years, I began to realize that even if I was doing a great job with this model I could only do so much for people. It was kind of like I was putting my finger in the dam. In about my mid 30s, I went to China and actually I was there doing a project there, but I got sick. I got mercury poisoning. I got back to the states and a number of different things happened and my whole body collapsed and I developed chronic fatigue syndrome. It was through the process of my own illness and recovery and through my work as the medical director at Canyon Ranch that I discovered a new way of treating and diagnosing illness that was based not on symptoms, but based on the causes of illness. It was based on the underlying issues that are really at the root of why we get sick and I realized that with putting your finger in the dam and simply treating symptoms you may quiet them down briefly, but the disease, or the processes that are causing the disease still are going on.

So for example, if you take a high blood pressure pill your blood pressure normalizes, but if you stop the pill your blood pressure goes up. So you really haven’t done anything to treat the high blood pressure. All you’ve done is suppress the symptoms. So I began to have to understand this not in sort of an academic way, but in a very real way to my own process of detoxification and healing, because I had no other way to get better. Conventional medicine didn’t offer me any solutions other than here take some Prozac, or take some drugs that deal with this or that, that were really not helpful anyway and so I got very lucky at the time and I was working at Canyon Ranch and I was introduced to the work of Jeffrey Bland, who is a nutritional biochemist, student of Linus Pauling, who’s been working over the last 35 years really reframing our medical science in a way that allows us to understand things and how they work together.

This is called systems biology and it’s an understanding that there are thousands and thousands of diseases, but there are really only about seven underlying systems in the body that has to function in order for you to be healthy and those things, when they’re not functioning create illness and the treatment and the diagnosis has to be focused on those seven things. So the rest of the names in the things we call diseases really become more irrelevant as we understand those seven causes. So you can have migraines, or depression, or Alzheimer’s disease, or heart disease, or diabetes or irritable bowel, or whatever. Those are just names for collections of symptoms and that any two people with exactly the same named disease can totally different problems. We have no way of knowing that if you have depression, one person might have mercury poisoning. Another person might be severely folate deficient, or B12 deficient. Another person might be hypothyroid and you can’t treat them all with Prozac. They’re not suffering from a Prozac deficiency. They are suffering from some fundamental, underlying imbalance that has to be addressed in order for them to get better and the body has to get the things it needs to function and thrive properly.

So this is sort of the evolution of functional medicine which has happened over the last 15 years and we have just recently published a textbook of functional medicine that lays out this paradigm in great detail. For those who are health practitioners, it’s a wonderful resource, with over 20,000 scientific references. I contributed a couple of chapters to that. Mine was very large chapter on influence of diet on health, which is a big topic. It’s a really exciting model, because it’s not just an idea. I’m a practicing physician and every day I see patients in my office and I always say I get to be a witness to miracles.

Kevin: Wow. What’s the difference between integrative medicine and alternative medicine, as opposed to functional medicine?

Mark: Great question. That’s a great question and I think it’s an important question. Let me just go through the history of how we got to where we are. We had conventional medicine, which is basically a reductionistic science. It breaks things down into component points, component parts. We have organ systems. We have various diseases. Then came along holistic health, which said we should pay attention to some other things, like mind-body effect and we should use some other treatments that help the body heal, like meditation, or yoga, or massage, or energy healing and then there was sort of a movement in awareness of other modalities, called alternative medicine, which included things like Ayurveda and Chinese medicine, which unto themselves are entire, whole healing systems with their own philosophy and methodologies that are very different from conventional medicine. Then Andy Wilde came along and he said there’s all these great things out there that we’re really not paying attention to that have been around for centuries or even some newer techniques that can really help the body heal, whether it’s osteopathy, or acupuncture, or herbs and we should integrate those treatments with conventional approaches to kind of have the better outcome. So what that does is that it says well, here are the conventional diagnoses; migraine, irritable bowel, depression, arthritis, whatever. We’re going to use these treatments, these alternative therapies and integrate them with conventional therapies.

Now, I think that’s a good advance, but I also think it’s very limited, because we’re simply doing what I call, green medicine, in the sense where we’re simply applying an herb instead of a drug. Someone that has a migraine headache, you give them feverfew instead of Imitrex. Maybe that’ll work and maybe it won’t. Maybe it’s a less toxic therapy, but it does nothing to help us figure out if that person has a migraine, because they have a gluten allergy, or because their estrogen levels are imbalanced, or because they have a mitochondrial defect and need high doses of riboflavin. The feverfew is not going to work. So you have to have a way of thinking to understand the architecture, so functional medicine is the next step. It’s the next evolution and it’s a way of using all therapies, whether they be conventional, or alternative, in a way that allows you to think about things differently and allows you to get to the problem, deal with the causes and help the body regain balance and it’s a really informational architectural of a model of a philosophy, or a theory basically, of how things work. It’s based on systems biology and allows us to understand how things relate and connect. So it’s not exclusive or inclusive of any particular treatment, modality, test, anything, so surgery could be functional medicine. It’s really, what is the best treatment for this particular problem and how do we find that out, because in conventional medicine, or integrative medicine we don’t have that opportunity.

I’ve seen in case conferences with patients in integrative medicine and you take someone, for example, with migraine and you’ll sit around the table with various modalities like acupuncturists, say well, they have a spleen chi deficiency and they need acupuncture and an herbalist says they need this herb, feverfew. A nutritionist may say they shouldn’t eat aspartame, because that can cause headaches. The other one says maybe they’re just really stressed out and need some mind-body therapies and spiritual healing. So you’re sort of getting a smorgasbord of choices, but no organized way of how to use them and you can’t use everything on everybody. So you have to figure out what is the root and you have to figure out how to navigate to that problem.

Kevin: You say there are seven causes of disease, or illness. Are those the basis of the functional medicine?

Mark: Absolutely. Those are what I call the seven keys to ultra wellness, but they’re also called the seven core imbalances of functional medicine. So I simply borrowed them and made them accessible to lay people, because it’s very hard for people to understand mitochondrial and oxidative redox imbalances, or biotransformational dysfunction, but I try to translate these concepts into things that people can actually get and understand and do something about.

Everybody gets that there’s some nutritional imbalances. Everybody gets that you can get inflammation. Everybody gets they might have detox issues. Everybody gets that you might have trouble making energy in your body. Everybody gets the might have stress and mind-body imbalances. Everybody gets that you can have hormonal problems. So these are the base end, or digestive problems. These are the basic systems and if those are not in balance, your body can’t be healthy.
