Where are your Clinical Trials?
It has proven to be difficult, if not impossible, to proceed to full-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs) for most of the natural methods that cannot be patented or otherwise monopolized.

Healing Chronic Back Pain
At the beginning of 2021, I broke my L3 vertebra during a motorcycle accident and underwent two surgeries in which surgeons replaced my shattered L3 with a metal “cage” (looks like a spring) and fused this cage to the L4 and L2 vertebrae with bars. I also broke both...

PLMI 14th Annual Thought Leaders Consortium
Loews Coronado Bay Resort 4000 Coronado Bay Rd, Coronado, CA, United StatesThe 14th Annual Thought Leaders Consortium marks the culminating chapter of PLMI’s three-year exploration into the biology of immuno-metabolism, epigenetic regulation, and human longevity. Building on the 2024 and 2025 Consortia—which reframed chronic disease through immune-metabolic dysfunction and diet- and environment-driven epigenetic remodeling—this year’s gathering places mitochondria at the center of health, disease, and aging. Once viewed simply as the cell’s energy producers, mitochondria are now recognized as dynamic, epigenetically responsive organelles that integrate nutrition, environmental exposures, immune activation, stress signaling, physical activity, and circadian inputs into a unified metabolic-immune system. Disruption of mitochondrial function is increasingly implicated in fatigue syndromes, chronic pain, immune dysregulation, neurodegeneration, infertility, metabolic disease, accelerated aging, and diminished stress resilience. This advanced, science-driven Consortium convenes world-leading experts to explore mitochondrial biology as the cornerstone of immuno-metabolic resilience. Attendees will gain cutting-edge insights into mitochondrial signaling, mito-nuclear communication, and metabolic flexibility—alongside clinically actionable frameworks for restoring cellular vitality, reversing biological aging trajectories, and extending healthspan. Through deep scientific exploration and translational clinical strategy, the 2026 Thought Leaders Consortium will equip practitioners and researchers with the knowledge needed to redefine assessment, intervention, and long-term outcomes in personalized and lifestyle medicine.

Practical Clinical Skills in Neurotransmitter Optimization: Clinical Herbalism for Mood, Cognition & Aging
Virtual EventJoin us for the second part of this two-part virtual symposium! Mental health and neurocognitive disorders remain among the most prevalent and inadequately addressed challenges in modern clinical practice. This intensive, expert-led symposium provides a comprehensive, clinically grounded framework for integrating herbal and nutraceutical strategies into mental health care. Attendees gain a working understanding of how targeted herbal interventions modulate key neurotransmitter systems, including serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and cortisol, and how to apply these therapies strategically, whether as adjuncts to pharmaceuticals or as standalone options. Clinical applications span a wide spectrum, from anxiety and depression to Parkinson’s-related motor symptoms and age-associated cognitive decline, with a strong emphasis on practical implementation and patient-specific protocol design.
