To restore health and end the disease, a medication or treatment must address all areas of dysfunction, on all levels of the human body. These 3 levels, when corrected simultaneously, provide the key to disrupting the pathophysiological cycle of illness and ensuring long-lasting health. This is the modern-day, scientific understanding of Body, Mind, & Spirit.

Medicine is starting to acknowledge the tight coupling of mind and body, and how thoughts, emotions, and stress can trigger biochemical responses that impact health. Studies into the psycho-neuro-endocrine-immunological level (PNEI) (or mental level) allow us to better understand the pathway that carries signals which trigger specific biophysical actions. Signaling pathways at this level are responsible for the activation of T-cells, B-cells, natural killer (NK) cells, and macrophages – all of which play a critical role in immune function and each individual’s reaction to the presence of certain pathogenic, environmental, or even psycho-emotional triggers. Mounding evidence now exists in this […]

An in depth exploration of a new integrative model of health and disease for understanding the disease process – the CPPI (Complete Pathophysiological Process of Illness). Trace disease pathology through three distinct levels of human dysfunction as defined like never before; and in doing so, we just may find the answer to some of medicine’s most prominent questions of the past century – e.g. Who gets sick, who heals, and why? We know that there is much more to the human organism than biochemistry, as the actions which play out on that level are in fact, “reactions” to various organizing instructions […]
