A Teoria Científica de Chee e os seus Novos Princípios e Visões para a Fisiologia, Medicina e Saúde

Johnson JH Wang

Rapid deterioration of demographic profiles in developed countries has rendered current healthcare systems unsustainable. Viable solutions are converging to expansion of services in Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM), of which a major component is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Unfortunately, CAMs have stagnated as an ensemble of empirical technology without a scientific theory, mostly operated under the wings of conventional (western) medicine. To remedy this fundamental shortcoming, this author began in 2018 to develop a scientific theory of Chee (often called Qi, meaning the power of life) for TCM. Our approach postulates that, for Chee to permeate the whole human body, the main pathways are in the newly discovered human organ named “Interstitium” published in March 2018. Preliminary results on scientific theory of Chee and its field equations, plus some validations, were published in 2022, thus metamorphosing TCM to scientific TCM (STCM). This paper reports updated and refined results on the theory and its validation, instrumentation, and clinical issues. It is shown that the Chee theory reveals significant new, synthetic, and macroscopic concepts and visions shedding light on human physiology, medicine, and healthcare. Translational research on a broad spectrum of applications on STCM and other CAMs is ongoing and successful.
