Cell Danger Response Through the Lens of Chinese Medicine
from The Balancing Point Podcast · host John Nieters
In this episode, I explore the striking parallels between Cell Danger Response and Traditional Chinese Medicine. I explain how Qi relates to cellular energy and ATP, why Wei Qi can remain stuck in a defensive state, and how chronic illness can keep the mitochondria, immune system, and nervous system on high alert. We also look at why recovery requires restoring safety, reserves, and healthy energy flow.- - - - - John is nationally and internationally known for treating chronic and degenerative health conditions known as “knotty” diseases in Chinese Medicine.
