Dr. Kendra Gaines, Editor-in-Chief, IJHC When I am asked about my reaction to AI and ChatGPT, I get quiet, usually because the question makes me grumpy. I don’t like to impose my rare grumpiness on others, so silence seems like the best alternative. But it has been a few years now that I’ve been considering
Igor Nazarov¹, Ph.D., Caitlin A. Connor2, DAOM, PGDip, AMP, EHP-C Artificial intelligence systems in healthcare function as sophisticated mirrors of human consciousness-based information processing patterns, revealing the layered architecture of how embodied consciousness accesses universal knowledge repositories. This study demonstrates that AI effectiveness depends fundamentally on the consciousness development level of healthcare professionals using these

Do not be concerned; I am not venturing into that swamp of disagreement and all-too-often hostility. Nonetheless, politics is undeniably connected to health, as I
Glen Rein, Ph.D. Context: A previous hypothesis proposed a key role for conformational changes in macromolecules like proteins to mediate the biological effects of Healing Arts practitioners. This mechanistic hypothesis is supported by preliminary results by the author indicating healers could change conformation of purified DNA in aqueous solutions. Methods: Aqueous solutions of purified human
A Pilot Study: Igor Nazarov, PhD1 This pilot study investigated the effects of Light Technology-treated wearable devices on human strength metrics. Thirty-two participants underwent a standardized 25–30-minute workout using Medex “selectorized” equipment to eliminate warm-up effects, followed by measurements on an ARX machine. Performance was assessed during a 10-second isometric leg press both without and with
