Thanks, I’ll follow up when I’m on my desktop :)

I see two different approaches: depends on the traditional method or stand out to create the best clinical results. Those two have big different results.

If you want to get the true high quality clinical result, please jump out and look for the quantum medicine and the ancient medicines.

I am definitely in the latter category. Innovation and departure from 20th century tradition is the only way to move forward. So what would your recommend?

Look at the result of the traditional medicine: tubes inserted, organ failure, high medical cost, kidney dialysis, amputations for diabetics that are a popular disease, etc. How much research cost, clinical cost was spending. The number of patients is increased, medical cost is highly added, severe disease population increased and age going down quickly, environmental pollution is increased quickly It's a common sense to see if it's right or not? Those situations were not happen in the ancient TCM treatments.

If one wants to travel from LA to San Francisco, if not go directly north of LA, but adopt go to Mexico, Chicago, Japan or whatever differ from north of LA, you know the result: high cost and maybe, never can reach San Francisco due to time and cost constrain like a patient's available money to spend on medical treatments.

The traditional Chinese medicine TCM, only activate Qi flowing smoothly and do preventive health care to practice qigong, adopt a healthy diet, lifestyle, cultivate ethics, continuous learning to keep happy can tremendously reduce medical cost without illness. Even more than two thousand years ago, well documented how to well treat nowadays no clue diseases.

Very similarly, quantum medicine also activates local on site micro circulation to treat and/or prevent 95% diseases.

The micro circulation is the Qi in TCM. In addition, TCM unblock the pathway of the meridian that passed the site and boost the meridian's pump, i.e. the main organs on the meridian to make sure good micro circulation of the meridians. Hence, I use acupuncture/moxibustion and simple external herbal formula can treat many no clue diseases or mistreated diseases. So does only using many ancient TCM herbal formulas only can treat nowadays diseases.

The TCM background wisdom knowledge is worth to dig out and apply to the future medicines.

On the other hand, it depends on how do you define traditional medicine. Now, the common sense in the world, the traditional medicine is the current western medicine. That is a shorter history than many past existed medicines.

In Chinese, it's the TCM and in many ancient cultures, it's their ancient medicine that had created many healthy and longevity people. If using the modern technology to restate them, the cost will be lower and the results will be better.

Again, if you want to catch fish, it's better to look into the water instead of trees on land. That's the wrong direction.

If keep using treatments that makes the blood to be acidic and get a colder body than normal, you will never say "Good Bye" to the diseases.

It's your project, depends on your true heart to benefit the patients or get peers' applause is your choice. I only give you my experiences and opinion.
