Pneumonia and Nutrition: An Interesting Twist
Some brilliant researchers from Hopkins and U of Maryland have used energy science information to reveal that the lining of the lung airways are able to sense the bitter taste This link appeared in of all places, the Wall Street Journal!
From an energy science medical view all the linings of all the channels of the mindbody have the ability to sense all six tastes: sweet, sour, salty, pungent, bitter, and astringent
Sooooo… what you say? Well, maybe not so exciting for you but…
For me with a matter science background interested in the energy science applications, I'm very excited in seeing my research colleagues beginning to explore the mindbody in an energy science way It begins to show the guidance that the energy science model can give to the matter science probings of our mindbody
Bitter as we covered in the past is the alkaline taste in Nature and balances the inflammatory nature of an insult such as pneumonia So if we have acid indigestion we use something alkaline like baking soda(bicarb) to reduce the acid
Now the researchers are finding that in the inflammatory condition of the the bronchial airways that there is dilation of the airways rather than constriction and that it is due to the stimulation of the bitter taste receptors in the airways
As the article relates, "the airways "taste" dangerous illness-causing bacteria," leading to the ability to clear the infection and mucous resulting from the infection
Since the lungs have the Kapha energy pattern dominant in the lung fields, it would make sense energetically that since Kapha is balanced by the bitter taste a bitter taste would bring about balance and restore health to the infected lung airways
It's yet another validation of the energy science medical model done by matter science medical research but studies such as these help show the value of the marraige between the two disciplines
Until tomorrow To health as a Skill Love DrBill
