Breakthroughs in Clinical Medicine
When a clinical problem such as osteoporosis is understood from both an energy science and matter science view then there is an complete understanding of the problem
Such an understanding can be called a breakthrough That is, a complete understanding of a particular clinical problem is known at both the molecular and energy levels
We need more of these but such breakthroughs are now occurring in clinical medicine now and then
Of course what we're really saying is that both disciplines see the problem from their own view but then come together to make a solution
Similar situations are occurring in our understanding of gastrointestinal function and seeing it from an energy science view This then leads our matter science medical approach to new solutions
Or it can lead to including energy science medical therapies
But it is this collaboration that is happening that creates these breakthroughs
Have you seen breakthoughs or insights in your life? Do you see how these can be the same in clinical medicine?

Pharma Versus Foods As Medicines
"Mary, it looks from all your tests so far that you have a nonbacterial inflammation of the bladder," I said
"Well, what can we do about it? Because I'm miserable"
The choice is yours We can give you some pharmaceuticals that will ease the pain
"Is that all? Isn't there something else? Will the drugs clear the problem?"
"The pharmaceuticals typically don't clear the condition They make the symptoms tolerable"
"If you want to deal with the problem, I think the best option is to use a nutritional approach and to help with the symptoms pharmaceuticals as well When you're feeling better then the pharmaceuticals have done their job and you can rely on the nutritional work that you started"
Mary paused and considered the options "Hmmm, well I'm not that uncomfortable Maybe if I tried the nutrition stuff for awhile and if the symptoms were getting me down I could do something more with the pharmaceuticals?
"Anything works and I think that approach is very reasonable"
I continued, "Using a nutritioanal and herbal approach can be additional to medication but it should be foundational to all healing processes that we undertake At times however medications and surgery are the early cornerstones of therapy"
This sample dialogue that occurs in my office almost daily now follows the theme that foods are medicines and that treating them as such helps us develop a deep awareness as to how they can impact our physiology
Do you believe foods used properly can be healing? Have you seen the nutritional formats at foodsheal.com? Using foods appropriately for your energy makeup can create a prevention theme to your nutrition

Valid Energy Sciences
Throughout this blog reference is made to "energy science" so today I'm going to explore this subject in more depth primarily to help our readers understand what I mean by this term
In my way of thinking there are only two qualified energy sciences: traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) which comes from the Tao philosophy; Ayurveda is the medical discipline within the Yoga tradition of India, grounded in the Sankhya philosophy
We've heard of the terms prana, qi(pronounced chi), ru, ruha These are words to describe the universal energy and specifically for us and our understanding, the biological energy of movement
The energy of prana or qi is composed of the universal frequencies of cold, light, mobile, dry, rough, subtle, and clear The energy term prana is used interchangeably with the Vata energy pattern, the principle of movement
The energy of Pitta(energy of transformation in the biology and universe) The qualities here are hot, light, mobile, sharp/penetrating, liquid, and oily This corresponds to yin in the TCM tradition
Kapha(energy of stability in the biology and universe) correspond to yang(pronounced "yawn") The vibrational frequencies here are cold, heavy, static, oily, slimy/smooth, slow/dull, dense, liquid, hard, soft, gross, and cloudy
So there we have it The contrasting terms of the energy sciences, TCM and Ayurveda
Vata(Prana) Qi
Pitta Yang Masculine Right side
Kapha Yin Feminine Left side
These energy sciences are very deep and sophisticated in their systems of healing and contemporary "new age" energy theories will have to be understood in light of these ancient systems if they can be trusted in their claims of healing
What makes these energy systems the sciences they are is that they are grounded in an understanding of the energetic qualities of the universe herself, namely the primordial vibrational frequencies of the universe as described above as qualities(also see String theory)

Multivitamins
Fooducate is a blog that I follow and they had this to say about multivits http://bit.ly/awfWzb
From this post we can say with reasonable skepticism that multivits are suspect about giving us the nutritional rewards for which we are hoping
There is a saying among medical providers that you may have heard about Americans having the most expensive urine and poop on the planet
But why? Is it the supplements problem? Is it our gut absorption problem? Or is it a combination that lead to their ineffectiveness?
I would contend that it's multifactorial Our guts are not healthy to absorb what's presented to it
And the products are in a crystalline matrix that are not readily recognized by the normal GI tract The mindbody needs a picture frame around the molecule, say mannose, to be absorbed Taking powdered mannose would be be as good as taking regular aloe vera, for example
So what should we do?
Eat whole fresh food cooked
Choose foods according to your mindbody makeup
Avoid food incompatabilities
Improve digestive fire by using churan
Take triphala
How much money do you spend on multivits? Are they crystalline or natural formed? Is there value in improving your gut function?

Alzheimer’s Dis-ease and Pitta Appetite
To me the worst health case scenario is early dementia Vibrant capable friends who illuminate everyone around them suddenly become poorly functioning neurologically To the point that they don't even recognize us
Did you know that there is more insulin secreted from the brain than from the pancreas? And when the brain begins to produce less and less insulin protein plaque formation similar to what is observed in diabetes 1 and 2 can lead to a different form of diabetes, type 3
It appears that Alzheimer's(early onset dementia) may be a form of diabetes as a result of lack of insulin production
The protein plaques in Alzheimer's "gum up" the works, so to speak, leading to neurological deterioration
So what does this have to do with energy science nutrition? It turns out that a voracious appetite(Pitta imbalance) treated by using self medicating foods such as white flour and refined sugar is one of the major culprits in the onset of type 3 diabetes or Alzheimer's dis-ease
When Pitta is provoked(out of balance) the appetite can be calmed by using refined sugar and carbs Oh, not good! That means pastries used to calm the appetite is not such a good idea
Here are some things that you can do to help with that raging appetite
Begin using a nutritional format for your energy makeup which means cutting out refined sugar(including high fructose corn syrup) and white flour
Exercise regularly
Eat your biggest meal at noon
Don't snack routinely(if you must use fruit according to your makeup)
Drink water when hungry
Use aloe gel on a regular basis
Have you ever had an appetite so strong that you'd eat cardboard? Did you find that a candy bar took the appetite away? Did you know that the hot quality is suppressed by the cold quality of sweet?
