Abstract
Essential fatty acids (EFAs), including omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, are crucial components of our diet, as the body cannot synthesize them. They play vital roles in cellular structure, energy production, and the synthesis of eicosanoids, which regulate inflammation and immunity. Omega-3 fatty acids, such as ALA, EPA, and DHA, are found in flaxseeds, walnuts, and fatty fish. They offer numerous health benefits, including cardiovascular protection by reducing triglycerides and blood pressure, anti-inflammatory effects, and support for brain health and cognitive function. Omega-6 fatty acids, primarily LA found in vegetable oils, are essential for skin health, growth, development, and immune function. A high ratio of omega-6 to omega-3, such as 20:1, is linked to obesity, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. An optimal ratio of 4:1 reduces the risk of cardiovascular diseases, helps manage inflammatory conditions, supports mental health, and prevents cancer progression. Additionally, they can improve insulin sensitivity, reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. To optimize health, it is important to incorporate EFA-rich foods such as fish, flaxseeds, and vegetable oils into the diet while ensuring a balanced intake of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids.

Abstract
Anthroposophic medicine is an integrative, multi-professional medical system founded by Rudolf Steiner and Dr Ita Wegman in Europe in 1920 and now widely used throughout the world.
Anthroposophic medicine proposes an extension of the art of healing. It expands conventional medicine with a holistic vision of the human being and nature, of disease and treatment, based on scientific investigation of the supra-sensible aspects of the human being and nature.
In addition to specific medicine/drug therapies, it also offers non-drug treatments (biographical work and psychotherapy, art therapy, eurythmy, etc.) which involve the active participation of the patient.
Anthroposophic medicine is based on extensive preclinical and clinical research.

Abstract
With changing lifestyle and stressful pattern of work, fertile generation is suffering from male infertility. Ayurveda has given us an ideal style of living; but our modern attitude especially western attitude is making our life little miserable.
Here I want to present a case report regarding Vandhyatwa. This is a case of Oligospermia. We all know and even practice also that in case of Oligospermia Shukravardhak Chikitsa is given. But in such cases if we use Shukrashodhan Dravyas instead of using only Shukravardhak treatment, we get results much earlier.
To overcome the problems like high viscosity in semen and less sperm count and decreased motility of sperms I used Shukrashodhan MahakashayDravyani as coated in Charak Samhita.
The patient had 7years of primary infertility. Investigations had already been done by doctors of other system of medicine (modern Medicine) and the opinion by the expertise was that male infertility should be treated with priority.
With strong trust in Ayurveda, the couple turned to me without taking any medicines from other system of medicine.
After thorough examination, proper physical, mental history. And treatment based on Trividha Chikitsa (Tripod treatment) was decided as
1. DAIVAVYAPASHRAY CHIKITSA –Enchanting of Mantras were encouraged for both partners. NIYAM, MEDITATION were advised to both partners.
2. YUKTIVYAPASHRAY CHIKITSA- Shukrashodhan mahakashay tablets prepared by Rudra pharmacy were used followed by Vajikar aahar (Aphrodisiac diet).
3. SATWAVAJAY CHIKITSA- Counselling of both husband and wife with some advice of Vihar chikitsa was done time to time.
Semen analysis with one month interval was inspected for 3 months .At the end of 3 months, patient had normal viscosity with increased motility of sperms. Though the total sperm count didn’t show significant increase in count, at the end of 5th month ,I received good news of pregnancy from patient.
In short, with changing era, youngsters are facing big problems in fertility. We can certainly make them happy with our Ayurveda.
Key words: Oligospermia, Viscosity of semen, Shukra, Ayurved, holistic medicine

Abstract
Women experience significant physical and emotional changes during their reproductive years, culminating in menopause—the cessation of menstruation and reproductive capacity. The transition leading up to menopause, known as the perimenopausal period, is often marked by a range of symptoms due to fluctuating hormonal levels. In India, perimenopausal syndrome is prevalent but frequently overlooked. Conventional treatments, such as estrogen-progesterone therapy, can have side effects that discourage women from seeking help.
In contrast, Ayurvedic management focuses on holistic well-being and prevention. This case report highlights a patient treated with Arvindasava and Praval Panchamrut, two Ayurvedic formulations known for their supportive effects on women's health. The combination of these medicines resulted in significant improvement of perimenopausal symptoms, offering a natural alternative with minimal adverse effects.
Ayurveda emphasizes individualized treatment, aiming to restore balance and enhance quality of life during this transitional phase. The positive outcomes observed in this case underscore the potential of Ayurvedic approaches in managing perimenopausal syndrome, providing relief and promoting well-being.

Abstract
This comprehensive review investigates the multifaceted relationship between emotional intelligence (EI), positive work environments, and their collective impact on individual health and immunity, drawing insights from seminal works and empirical evidence. Woolery and Salovey's exploration highlight the intricate linkages between emotional intelligence and physical health, emphasizing emotional expression as a key component. Emotional intelligence encompasses competencies such as emotional expression, identification, analysis, understanding, and regulation, all of which play crucial roles in shaping individual responses to stressors and interpersonal dynamics. Notably, emotional intelligence facilitates appropriate emotional disclosure, which has been associated with improved mental and physical health outcomes.
In alignment with findings from Google, stress manifests in various physical signs and symptoms, ranging from difficulty breathing and panic attacks to muscle aches and changes in weight. These manifestations underscore the physiological repercussions of chronic stress, emphasizing the importance of mitigating stressors within the workplace context. A positive work environment, characterized by supportive relationships, effective communication, and recognition, serves as a buffer against stress-induced health ailments. Moreover, emotional intelligence emerges as a prerequisite for fostering such conducive work environments, as individuals with higher EI levels exhibit greater adaptability, resilience, and interpersonal skills.
Research indicates bidirectional relationships between emotional intelligence, workplace environment, and immune function. Positive emotions and social connections fostered within a supportive work environment have been linked to enhanced immune function and expedited recovery from illness. Conversely, chronic stress and negative workplace dynamics can compromise immune responses, exacerbating existing health conditions and predisposing individuals to infectious diseases.
In conclusion, leveraging emotional intelligence and cultivating positive work environments are pivotal strategies for promoting employee health and immunity. Employers and organizational leaders can implement targeted interventions, including EI training and culture-building initiatives, to optimize workplace well-being. Future research endeavors should focus on elucidating mechanistic pathways linking EI, work environment, and immune function, thereby facilitating the development of evidence-based interventions aimed at enhancing employee health outcomes.

Abstract
There is an emerging worldwide epidemic of cognitive decline and the more severe pathologies of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
There are many contributing factors leading to this pathology, including genetic predisposition, sleep disorders, toxic foods and polluted environments, blood sugar imbalances and persistent stress.
The predominant pathology in the brains of those who suffer from this frightening syndrome and disease arethe accumulation of amyloid plagues and tau proteins that interrupt the healthy functioning of the neurons of the brain.
Certainly, healthy lifestyle choices can help prevent or delay cognitive decline.
Pharmaceutical solutions thus far have shown only limited benefits. Additionally, the cost and potential negative side effects of the medications are cause for caution.
Recent research in the effects of Gamma wave sound and light at 40 Hz on brain health offer the most promising strategy to prevent and treat cognitive decline.
This lecture will present the emerging evidence on 40Hz sound and light therapy and provide strategies that offer the benefit of high patient compliance.

Abstract
The present study is technically mixed but primarily qualitative. Content analysis was used to quantify the summary of the data in terms of counts and percentages of how many participants contributed to qualitative themes and the health survey is quantitative. The study was designed to provide a comprehensive analysis of facts that influence participant’s decisions and perceptions about the use of conventional, alternative, and integrative medicine for chronic pain. Users of three types of medical treatments are generally characterized as being above, normal, or below normal health compared by 1998 normal health standard by participants. The study’s participants were 17 people who experienced or were diagnosed with chronic pain using patients’ perception survey (SF-36). The questionnaire asked about their experience of chronic pain, treatment, and health outcomes and the way they perceived conventional, alternative, and integrative treatment.
Physicians were interviewed. From the physicians’ perspective, interviews suggested that integrative medicine is more open to the use of other medical treatments and modalities for chronic pain. Although interviewees who practiced conventional and alternative medicine were somewhat open to other medical treatments and modalities, they were more restricted in their willingness to utilize treatment modalities different from their practice of medicine compared to integrative medicine. Participants were more aware
A Qualitative Study of why they chose alternative medicine but were less aware of why they chose integrative medicine even though they were satisfied with it.
The primary focus of this study was patient satisfaction and perceptions of conventional, alternative, and integrative medicine in the treatment of chronic pain: 8 showed satisfaction with alternative treatment only; 7 were satisfied with integrative treatment for chronic pain or some combination of modalities; 13 participants chose alternative methods because they perceived it as good for body or mentioned personal preferences and practicality. For most, complementary and alternative medicine (CAM)seemed beneficial, holistic, and more natural healing. Some patients appeared unclear of the difference between integrative and alternative medicine. The study showed that patients preferred alternative, complementary, and integrative medicine to conventional medicine. Evidence suggests that patients’ choice of treatment are linked to the strong value they attach to their culture, religious beliefs, and confidence in their doctor.
Additional research is recommended.

Abstract
Peptides are signaling molecules that play a crucial role in promoting cellular repair, regeneration, and longevity. In Functional Medicine, peptides are increasingly recognized for enhancing cellular communication and influencing processes such as inflammation, metabolism, and tissue regeneration. Bioenergetics, which focuses on energy flow within biological systems, complements peptide therapy by improving cellular energy production and balancing the body's natural energy fields.
This presentation explores the intersection of peptides and bioenergetics in optimizing cellular health. By integrating peptide protocols with bioenergetic assessments and therapies, Functional Medicine practitioners can enhance the body’s ability to heal and rejuvenate at the cellular level. Emerging research highlights the potential for this combination to address aging, chronic diseases, and energy deficiencies more effectively than either approach used in isolation.
In addition to individual cellular benefits, this synergy can be leveraged to support systemic health improvements, such as boosting immune resilience, enhancing detoxification processes, and improving mental clarity and cognitive function. The bioenergetic field’s role in harmonizing the body’s energetic frequencies, coupled with the regenerative power of peptides, holds promise for slowing down the aging process and mitigating the impacts of environmental stressors. This combination opens new frontiers for addressing complex, multifactorial health issues holistically and integratively.
We will delve into case studies and the latest findings on how the synergy of peptides and bioenergetics can support optimal health and vitality. Additionally, this presentation will propose a comprehensive model for incorporating these therapies into clinical practice, demonstrating their value in a personalized approach to wellness. Attendees will gain insights into practical applications of peptides and bioenergetic treatments and strategies for implementing them to achieve sustainable, long-term health outcomes.

Abstract
This validation study is based on molecular modeling, DFT/MM, based on density functional theory (DFT), which is attracting attention as an artificial intelligence (AI) technique.
Using the software Spartan, DFT/MM allows theoretical determination of the heat of formation, electronic energy structure, UV/Vis and IR/FIR spectra of hydrated singlet oxygen species [1O2(H2O)2], hydrated superoxide anion radical [O2-*(H2O)2], hydrated hydrogen peroxide [HOOH (H2O)2], hydrated hydroxyl radical [HO*(H2O)2], whitch are produced in the mitochondrial endoplasmic reticulum.
Health is a state in which the chemical energ, i.e., superoxide anion radical [O2-*(H2O)2] is generated in the mitochondrial endoplasmic reticulum, and microwaves and radio waves are emitted by generating a capacitive alternating current in membrai-structured mitocondria. Similar to the heating phenomenon in a microwave oven, heating cells with microwaves and radio waves (far infrared rays) promotes metabolic chemical reactions in cells, thereby maintaining a healthy body. Furthermore, far-infrared rays from the sun, i.e., microwaves and radio waves, also activate [1O2(H2O)2] in the mitochondrial endoplasmic reticulum, promoting the production of [O2-*(H2O)2] and contributing to maintaining a rhythmic health state. [1][2][3]
The cause of health problems is the deterioration of cellular metabolic function, i.e. aging, caused by the destruction of the mitochondrial endoplasmic reticulum bilayer membrane by the harmful reactive hydrated hydroxyl radical [HO*(H2O)2] generated from [O2-*(H2O)2]. Now, when we think about health care, the following question arises: Why do mental stress, excessive fatigue, and lack of sleep cause a decline in cellular metabolic function?
Do brain cells communicate with other cells in the body using microwaves and radio waves? In other words, when brain cells are subjected to mental stress, it induces lack of exercise and insomnia. As a result, the chemical energy [O2-*(H2O)2] in the mitochondria of the body's cells is not converted into microwaves or radio waves, but becomes harmful [HO*(H2O)2].
The generation of the [HO*(H2O)2] destroys the lipid bilayer structure of the mitochondrial endoplasmic reticulum and causes the cell structure to swell [1]. It is believed that bacteria and viruses invade the swelled cells. As a result, the rhythmic drive of the metabolic chemical reactions of the cells is reduced, leading to a deterioration in health.
We conclude that the direct cause of health problems is not pathogens (bacteria/viruses), but cellular aging. Health care is about cultivating the health of the mind and body through proper lifestyle and dietary habits. Doctor of Medicine Shibasaburo Kitasato, the "father of modern Japanese medicine," stated his medical ethics as "a doctor's mission is to prevent disease. I should add that the prevention he is referring to is not against pathogens.
We may add that Kitasato Shibasaburo's portrait is on Japan's new 1,000 yen banknote.

Abstract
Research is now showing us that meditation and mindfulness are highly effective tools for reshaping our brains. There is compelling evidence that meditation and mindfulness are very effective at creating physical, lasting change to our nervous and endocrine systems.
There are over 5000 peer-reviewed studies showing us what’s going on inside our brains when we meditate, using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), which has assisted in the acceptance of it. Meditation and mindfulness offer help for anxiety, symptoms of depression and the relapse of depression, insomnia, improving heart health, decreasing cholesterol levels, chronic pain levels, and increasing levels of empathy. Maybe we underestimate the power of the mind. The body and the mind are not separate. We tend to other aspects of self-care – we wash ourselves; we clean our teeth twice a day. What are you doing to support your nervous system? This is part of the global shift towards functional medicine – to prevent illness or disease from occurring in the first place.

Abstract
A Mucocele of ventral surface of tongue is a benign cystic lesion of the salivary gland that contains mucus. It is clinically identified by one or more soft, fluctuating nodules over the ventral surface of the tongue. There are two leading cause of it. The most common cause is due to trauma to the excretory duct of the major salivary glands. And the less common cause is due to obstruction of salivary duct.
The prevalence rate of ventral tongue among all the types of Mucocele is 25.86% between age group 15-24 years.
Specifically, the ventral tongue has a 50% recurrence rate in comparison to other types of Mucocele.
The case study presented here is a detailed analysis of a 24-year-old male affected by Mucocele of ventral surface of the tongue and its homoeopathic management.
Case summary: A 24 years unmarried male patient came with the complaints of nodular fluctuating, soft extra growth on the ventral surface of the tongue since 3weeks. Initially it was small but slowly it goes on increase its size.
After a detailed case study and repertorisation, the patient was prescribed Natrum Muriaticum 200C, one dose, once in a month, for 3 months. The case was assessed by measuring Naranjo Criteria Score. This case brings to light the usefulness of Natrum muriaticum 200C in the treatment of Mucocele of the ventral surface of the tongue.

Abstract
Analyzing a set of basic lab work for preventative care using Eastern medical concepts, diagnoses, and patterns is under utilized in both conventional medicine and acupuncture practices. Eastern Medicine and Acupuncture is a 3000+ year old technique that treats the body as a collective series of systems that all work together. Functional Medicine uses lab work to help support the body to work as optimal as possible and find the root cause of the issue. By understanding a basic set of labs using both these techniques, acupuncturists should be able to comprehend and utilize functional blood chemistry panels honoring the patterns and philosophy of Eastern and TCM medicine. Acupuncturists view the body as a series of organ systems that work as a whole. When acupuncturists learn to analyze functional blood chemistry labs in their practices using Eastern and TCM medical concepts, diagnoses, there is more opportunity for practitioners to treat imbalance before it reaches a diseased state. This lecture focuses on the Iron Panel, analyzing four markers from a simple blood draw and the differential diagnoses found in many anemic patients.

Abstract
Chronic illness is a relatively new concept, especially in 120 years in our societies. Although people may have been chronically ill before, mainly as a result of injuries, there was no severe chemical stress either in their environment or within their body.
Chronic toxicity, the relative toxicity balance, is a particular way of being specific to our societies. It has also been observed that systemic detoxification cures and diets are particularly effective in our time. It is possible to get rid of chronic illnesses, for which modern medicine recommends that we get used to the diseases while taking medication and learn to live with our complaints.
What these cures have in common is that they significantly increase the elimination, utilising drainage and elimination methods, of the deposits in our metabolism and the residues that saturate our connective tissues, which cannot be eliminated from the body due to food preservatives and the use of medicinal products.
Although this is not new, as Samprapti describes, the accumulation phenomenon in written records goes back five thousand years. In the past, the process was much slower than it is today.
Systemic detoxification cures such as the Gerson Therapy, the Buchinger-Lützner Fasting Cure, the Breuss-Muermann Cure, the Budwig Diet, or even the Melius Therapy that I have been using for 30 years not only rid our bodies of accumulation but also generate an internal environmental change in which our bodies can use the energy resources available to them more efficiently. This is a spontaneous process that can be achieved by walking, eliminating energy deficits caused by food deprivation, breathing exercises, and meditation, even if we are unaware of what is happening.
Energy deficiency can be measured by Voll-like electro-acupuncture. Stability, the PIE index, and the hierarchy of Chinese five elements values, as qualitative coefficients, can be related to meridian balance and, more broadly, to the quality of homeostasis.
Using an energising treatment, I would like to show what it means to have excess energy in the body in the short term.
What chance does energising itself give us?
How is it possible to overcome chronic illnesses inspiringly if the effectiveness of known, proven methods, which take months to apply, is also supported by direct energising?

Abstract
The World Health Organization’s historic definition of health in 1948 was a key inspiration of the wellness concept. It also foreshadowed the resistance of modern healthcare to move beyond a limited, disease-model focus. The original concept of High-Level Wellness (Halbert Dunn, MD, PhD, 1961) can now be seen as a missing complement to healthcare’s focus on the disease model and levels of illness. The next major evolution of the wellness concept are three key theories of wellness pioneer John W. Travis, MD, MPH, the Illness-Wellness Continuum, the Iceberg Model of Health and Wellness Energy System, his whole person model. The latter can be likened to a “Human Operating System” of 12 fundamental life processes. Four of the 12 life-processes mirror the foundations of the 4 pillars of mindfulness: awareness of Breath, Sensation, Feeling and Thought. The intrinsic interrelatedness of the 12 life processes can enable a client to experience multiple positive benefits (in various life processes) from a single self-care practice. This phenomenon is referred to as the “Holographic Growth Process” and can contributes to improving client self-efficacy and the development and strengthening of a “wellness mindset.” Dr. Travis created the first wellness center in the US in California in 1975, and developed the Wellness Inventory, the original wellness assessment, based on his whole person model of 12 life processes. The assessment was used as a whole person intake in a 1-on-1 facilitation process with his clients. His facilitation process was a forerunner of modern wellness coaching. Today health & wellness coaching is in the early process of integration into healthcare as well as in health insurance provided wellness programs but is typically delivered within a disease management framework. Results will be shared of two hospital pilots funded by insurance companies using a series of workshops on the 12 life processes with one with school staff and one with community and staff participants.

Abstract
These days, more and more people are seeking alternative, integrative natural therapies to complement their traditional medical care OR in place of their conventional medical treatment. The immunotherapeutic stimulation of the patients own immune response is an important and integral factor for fighting cancer at it’s optimum to “seek out” and destroy the malignant cells through immunomodulating properties activating macrophages, natural killer {NK} cells and T cells to attack the tumor cells along with lymphokines, interleukin 1 and 2, CD$ and CD8 to activate the cell mediated response. The research being clinically evidenced based, reveals an effective, organic, sustainable and safe naturopathic plant-based product, a proprietary compounded blend, physician formulated, that has shown great success with cancers, chronic diseases and the COVID=19 virus, with a successful track record for more than twenty years. It is my pursuit to help as many people as possible with this innovative, revolutionary and unique product by improving the outcomes for patients with a better chance to live longer and thrive with this natural plant-based immunotherapy.

Abstract
Insulin is the medication used for the treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus. According to American Diabetes Association, 10,5% of US population have diabetes, 90-95% are diabetes type 2, 5-10% are diabetes type 1 and 1-2% have maturity- onset of young diabetes. According to traditional Chinese medicine, diabetes is formed when
there is Yin deficiency and Heat retention. Purpose of this study is to demonstrate that patients with diabetes that are using insulin, can reduce glycemia reducing the use of insulin when treating the internal massive organs ( Liver, Heart, Spleen, Lungs and Kidney) lack of energy and the treatment of this condition rebalancing the internal energy of Yin, Yang, Qi and Blood and taking out the Heat using Chinese dietary counseling, auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting and systemic acupuncture and replenishing the internal massive organs energy using highly diluted medications according to the theory Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine. Methods: three cases report of diabetes type 1(one patient) and diabetes type 2(two patients). They were using insulin to control glycemia and all of them were having glycemia more than 500 mg/dl. After receiving orientations of Chinese dietary counseling, to avoid foods that could increase the Yin energy deficiency and could cause more Heat retention, and receiving acupuncture and auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting and systemic acupuncture, and also, receiving highly diluted medications according to the theory Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine and crystal-based medications ( after measuring the energy of the five internal massive organs that revealed that all organs were in the lowest level of energy, rated one out of eight). Results: the glycemia of all patients reduced dramatically to less than 150mg/dl and it was orientated to reduce the insulin use to prevent the hypoglycemia. Conclusion: the conclusion of this study is that we can reduce hyperglycemia of diabetes patients using insulin orientating the patients the dietary aspects to balance the Yin and Yang energy and taking out the Heat. The use of Chinese medicine’s tools using auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting and systemic acupuncture and replenishing the internal massive organs energy using highly diluted medications were important to treat the cause of diabetes formation in all these patients (energy imbalances) and not just treating the symptoms, that are the hyperglycemia.
