Ayurveda states: "The intestine in the brain of the brain", which has been backed by modern Western science to the point that now we know that, indeed, there are neurons in the intestine, which are not different from those found in the brain itself. Our modern diet, poor in healthy fibers and overabundant in processed foods, pesticides, and harmful artificial chemicals, is taking a toll on the health of "the brain of our brain", making diseases such as leaky guts far from a rarity these days. In this episode, Dr. Marianne Teitelbaum. explains how the human intestine functions, how modern lifestyle affects it, and how the magical properties of butyrate protect and restore its well-being. Some handy diet tips are also part of this erudite lecture packed with invaluable information.

In this episode, Dr. Marianne Teitelbaum reveals all the mysteries of ayurvedic pulse diagnosis. In Western medicine, the pulse of a patient is assessed to obtain two pieces of information: its rate or speed and its evenness or regularity. But in Ayurveda, it is a full health diagnosis that assesses the whole physiology, and it can detect the imbalances of the three doshas (vata, pitta, and kapha), the clogging of the physical and vibrational channels (shrotas and nadis), the accumulation of toxins, and even some spiritual qualities of the examined patient.

Modern life in a highly polluted environment where we are exposed to 80.000 chemicals and the EMF/EMR radiation from computers and cell phones, plus the consumption of highly processed foods, can take a toll on our health in a myriad of ways. The millennia-old science of Ayurveda records causes and treatments for Multiple Sclerosis, which still bring hope to patients today. In this incredible episode, Dr. Teitelbaum reveals all the possible causes of MS disease and addresses its ayurvedic treatment options beyond the reach of pharmaceuticals and the Western-medicine approach.

Tulsi is regarded as a divine plant in ayurveda. It is loaded with medicinal properties, particularly for the physical and vibrational heart, the skin, and the lungs, as attested in the Charak Samhita, the millennia-old Sanskrit text that Vaidya reads and translates during the session. It is also a mandatory feature in any Krishna temple, in India and across the world, where live Tulsi plants are grown in dedicated areas of the temple. This lecture by Vaidya Ramakant Mishra is part of the video seminar "Dravya Guna - Ayurvedic Pharmacopeia", a once-in-a-lifetime series of conferences held at the Prana Center over a three-month span in 2009. The whole collection of lectures totals 45 hours of tutorials, available as streaming videos at www.VaidyaMishra.com.
