Paolo Mainardi Physics teaches us that in complex systems the relationships between different elements generate new properties not related to those of the individual elements themselves. Although the human body is certainly a complex system, this approach has not been applied much in medicine, that, until now, with a botanical approach, has divided the body […]
Gut’s role in multiple sclerosis Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is commonly considered an autoimmune disease, depending on an auto-antibody attack against myelin. Though its antigens are unknown, specific biological markers (1) have not yet been identified, as well as pathognomonic symptoms and paraclinical tests that allow for a safe diagnosis (2). Diagnosis is not easy at […]
Parkinson can be reduced through natural remedies: a) Parkinson is caused by a brain dopamine deficit b) Brain dopamine is synthetised by tyrosine only, an essential amino- acid that originates only from diet c) Gut’s inability to absorb appropriate amounts of tyrosine reduces brain dopamine availability d) A disbiotic intestinal flora excessively decarboxylates tyrosine (see […]
Insomnia can be reduced through natural remedies: 1a) Sleeplessness is caused by a brain melatonin deficit, that is synthetised by serotonin, on its turn synthetised by tryptophan, an essential amino-acid that originates from diet only 1b) Gut’s inability to absorb appropriate amounts of tryptophan reduces both serotonin and melatonin brain availability 1c) Alpha lactalbumin is […]

Can crisis be controlled through natural remedies? From ancient times until the XIX century, fasting was the common cure for epilepsy. Later on, in 1866, Radcliffe proposed a diet high in fats and low in carbs (ketogenic diet), capable of producing ketogenic bodies that were held responsible for fasting’s anticonvulsant action (see diet and […]
Depression can be reduced through natural remedies: 1a)Depression is caused by a brain serotonin deficit (1), 1b)Brain serotonin is synthetised by only tryptophan, an essential amino-acid that originates from diet only 1c)Gut’s inability to absorb appropriate amounts of tryptophan reduces serotonin brain availability 1d)Alpha lactalbumin is the serum protein nature has prepared for us (2). […]
Cephaleas Various neurotransmitters are involved in headaches: Serotonin: The role of serotonin is confirmed by the efficacy of triptan drugs, that are serotonin agonists, i.e. they are so similar to serotonin to be exchanged for it. Thus, the importance of increasing serotonin availability is essential. Unluckily due to their side effects, a frequent use in […]
Anxiety Anxiety can be reduced through natural remedies: 1a) anxiety depends on brain serotonin deficiency 1b) brain serotonin is synthesized only by tryptophan, an essential amino-acid that comes from diet only 1c) Gut’s inability to absorb the appropriate tryptophan amounts reduces serotonin brain availability 1d) alpha lactalbumin is the serum protein that nature has prepared […]
Alzheimer Alzheimer symptoms can be reduced through natural remedies: 1a) brain serotonin controls the cholinergic system that is responsible for cognitive functions 1b) brain serotonin is synthetised only by tryptophan, an essential amino-acid that originates from diet only 1c) Gut’s inability to absorb appropriate amounts of tryptophan reduces serotonin brain availability 1d) Alpha lactalbumin […]
