Abstract

Current concepts in Tibetan medicine have been in practice for over 1500 years. We have previously shown that Tibetan medical theories are consistent at the microscopic molecular level and macroscopic whole-body level for the understanding of myelin lipids and multiple sclerosis. We have since added functional medicine system biology theories and approaches for an integrative approach in the clinic and find that the use of functional labs provides an optimal outcome for assessing the effects of Tibetan medicine in the clinic and in clinical research. This includes evaluations of the gut microbiome, genetics, and gene expression. We share the overlap of Tibetan and functional medicines as relates to nervous system disorders by comparing and contrasting multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and Parkinson’s disease. We share how the use of functional labs correlates with Tibetan medical theories to provide optimal outcomes for monitoring the effects of Tibetan medicine. Similarly, the theories of Tibetan medicine can help simplify complex laboratory data into meaningful patterns and we provide examples of a variety of functional labs that are utilized to help determine Tibetan herb and herb/mineral formulations. This also allows targeting of nutritional supplements to help stabilize nervous system imbalance. In addition, we review the integration of the Neubie direct current device for helping to restore nerve conduction and function in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and atrial fibrillation. The integration of Tibetan and functional medicines and the Neubie direct current electrical stimulation device provide a synergy that optimizes clinical healing outcomes. We believe this approach is also beneficial for other Traditional medicines.

Biography

Short Biography:
Dr. Cynthia Husted, PhD, is a medical researcher and the founder and president of the Science and Spirit Institute. She earned a Ph.D. in physical chemistry with a focus on nuclear magnetism and quantum mechanics as a possible link to the energy concepts of traditional medicines. Over the past 40 years, she has conducted interdisciplinary research on neurological disorders, integrating perspectives from physics, neuroscience, traditional medicine, integrative medicine, and functional medicine. Her work explores the role of energy in healing, particularly through the lens of Tibetan medicine. Through the Science and Spirit Institute, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, she focuses on healthy longevity and restoring balance in neurological disorders and chronic illnesses, including autoimmunity, mood disorders, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and atrial fibrillation. Her approach emphasizes the connection between mind, body, and spirit through a deeper understanding of universal energy.
