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.

EditorialDoes Vitamin C Cause Kidney Stones? Rekindling the DebateIt has frequently been claimed that ingestion of large doses of vitamin C can increase the risk of developing kidney stones, because vitamin C is converted in part to oxalate. While these claims have...Letter-Norton
Oxalate Article May Be MisleadingKudos to the Townsend Letter for publishing the January 2015 piece by William Shaw titled “The Green Smoothie Fad: This Road to Health Hell is Paved with Toxic Oxalate Crystals.”1 This is a valuable and timely warning about serious...Letter-Lee-06-2015
An Unjust Attack on GreensI enjoyed the article that Dr. Shaw wrote in the January issue. However, I did research on oxalate and feel that it’s unjustly attacking greens, while oxalate is present in meat and other foods. I was just sharing this research...Letter-Lee-05-2015

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.
