New Textbook “The Original Cure” Unveils the Hidden Revolution of Native American Medicine as a Solution for Modern Healthcare Crises

The Original Cure, Native Medicine's Hidden Revolution by Dr. Anthony B. James
Version 1.0.0

BROOKSVILLE, FL – In a groundbreaking release that bridges the divide between ancient tribal wisdom and modern clinical science, Dr. Anthony B. James presents “The Original Cure, Native Medicine’s Hidden Revolution: Tribal Wisdom’s Enduring Bridge Between Past Ceremonies and Future.” Available now on Amazon, this comprehensive textbook establishes Native American Traditional Indigenous Medicine (NATIM) not merely as cultural history, but as a recognized, sophisticated “Whole Medical System” capable of addressing the chronic diseases that plague modern society.

While modern allopathic medicine excels at acute trauma care, it often fails to cure chronic conditions like diabetes, autoimmune disorders, and mental health crises, resorting instead to palliative chemical management. “The Original Cure” offers a radical alternative: a functional medicine blueprint that treats the “Bio-Psycho-Socio-Spiritual” whole.

A Blueprint for Integrative Immunity

A central feature of the book is the adaptation of the T.O.B.I.N. Protocol—an integrative immunity holistic approach originally defined by Dr. Benoit Tano.  Dr. James expands this framework to create a clinically robust strategy for NATIM practitioners, addressing the five causative factors of chronic disease:

  • Toxicity (The Removal of Burdens)

  • Oxidative Stress (The Fire Control)

  • Biological Agents (The Parasitic/Viral Link)

  • Inflammation & Immune (The Defense System)

  • Nutrition & Neuro-Endocrine (The Fuel & The Mind)

“We are offering the world a functioning, non-lethal, ethically grounded medical system that has survived genocide and suppression to emerge as the healing agent for the 21st century,” writes Dr. James.

From the Reservation to the Urban Clinic

“The Original Cure” serves as an institutional action plan for implementing sovereign healthcare. It provides detailed architectural and operational blueprints for “Future Clinics”—Integrative Wellness Centers that can operate on sovereign tribal land or as urban off-reservation hubs. These centers are designed to utilize “Two-Eyed Seeing,” combining the best of Western diagnostics with Indigenous ceremonial and somatic therapies.

Key Features of the Book Include:

  • The Legal Fortress: A deep dive into the legal basis for Native American Religious Therapeutics, citing protections under the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA) and the American Indian Religious Freedom Act (AIRFA).

  • The Green Pharmacy: A comprehensive guide to the “Green Arsenal” of Indigenous plant medicines, detailing their clinical applications for metabolic and immune health.

  • Somatic & Adjunct Therapies: Detailed protocols for incorporating Chirothesia (healing touch), sweat lodge therapy (clinical hyperthermia), and sound healing into a clinical environment.

  • Cultural & Historical Context: An exploration of Indigenous philosophy, anthropology, and the “Genetic Mismatch” that drives modern metabolic plagues.

About the Author

Dr. Anthony B. James is the Dean of the American College of Natural Medicine and a Medicine Chief of the Native American Indigenous Church. An adopted son of the Crow Tribe (Whistling Water Clan), Dr. James has spent a lifetime “chasing two rabbits”—the rigor of academia and the spirit of the Medicine Wheel—ultimately discovering they are one path.

Leave a comment

SomaVeda® Healing Protocols Textbook by Ajahn, Dr. Anthony B. James

New Textbook Empowers Healthcare Providers and Individuals with Evidence-Informed, Holistic Strategies Rooted in Ancient Wisdom and Modern Science

[Brooksville, Florida – October 25, 2025] — In a world where over 80% of the global population relies on traditional and complementary medicine for primary healthcare—according to World Health Organization (WHO) estimates—comes a timely resource addressing the lingering impacts of COVID-19, vaccines, and boosters. We are thrilled to announce the release of “SOMAVEDA® HEALING PROTOCOLS: Natural Recovery After COVID, Vaccines, and Boosters with Ayurveda, Thai Yoga, Integrative Medicine and Protocols to Reclaim Health” (ISBN: 979-8359022765), a pioneering textbook co-authored by Dr. Anthony B. James, ND(T), MD(AM), OMD, RAAP, and Dr. Benoit Tano, MD, PhD. This comprehensive guide is now available for purchase on Amazon: Purchase Link: https://amzn.to/42W3gmm).

Drawing on the synergistic power of SomaVeda Integrated Traditional Therapies®, a U.S.-patented system blending Indigenous Traditional Thai Yoga, Ayurveda, Marma Chikitsa (vital point therapy), and evidence-based integrative approaches—the book provides step-by-step protocols for symptom relief, immune restoration, and holistic recovery. Tailored for physicians, naturopaths, yoga therapists, and wellness practitioners, it tackles common post-viral challenges such as chronic fatigue, inflammation, neurological fog, and autoimmune flares through non-invasive, culturally resonant methods. With only 61% of the global population accessing reliable modern healthcare services in 2022 (WHO data), this resource bridges the gap, emphasizing accessible, patient-centered strategies that honor the 6.4 billion people worldwide who turn to traditional systems for vitality and resilience.

“This book is more than a recovery manual—it’s a blueprint for reclaiming sovereignty over one’s health in an era of unprecedented medical complexity,” said Dr. Anthony B. James, Grand Master of Thai Traditional Ayurveda and Dean of the American College of Natural Medicine. “By integrating ancient protocols like Thai Yoga Therapy and Marma Chikitsa with contemporary Integrative Immunology, we empower individuals to address root causes, not just symptoms, fostering true healing and prevention.”

Dr. Benoit Tano MD, PhD, a board-certified allergist-immunologist and founder of Integrative Immunity Health System, adds, “Post-COVID and vaccine-related immune dysregulation affects millions, often overlooked by conventional models. Our protocols leverage probiotics, peptides, and Ayurvedic balancing to restore harmony, drawing from my 25+ years in allergy and hormone optimization. This collaboration with Dr. James exemplifies integrative medicine’s potential to transform chronic illness into opportunity.”

Key highlights of the 300+ page volume include:

– Diagnostic Frameworks: Tools to assess dosha imbalances (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and biopathy (energetic armoring) in post-viral contexts.

– Hands-On Protocols: Over 50 illustrated SomaVeda® techniques, including pranic healing, lymphatic drainage, and Homeopuncture for pain reversal and vitality.

– Immune Mastery Strategies: Insights on postbiotics, peptides, and herbal synergies, informed by Dr. Tano’s expertise in mast cell activation and histamine intolerance.

– Case Studies and Evidence: Real-world applications from NAIC Natural Wellness Solutions Tribal Wellness Center, supporting WHO’s call for TCIM integration in national health systems.

Published by Meta Journal Press, the book aligns with the WHO’s 2025–2034 Global Traditional Medicine Strategy and advocates for an equitable, evidence-based fusion of ancient and modern care. It builds on Grand Master Dr. James’s 42+ years as the first Western Ajahn (Master Teacher-Professor) recognized by the Royal Thai Government and Dr. Tano’s global lectures for the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine (A4M).

Press Release! Decoding Ai Bias In Medicine

Faculty of the American College of Natural Medicine releases new Medical Textbook!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Decoding AI Bias in Medicine: How Artificial Intelligence Ignores Traditional, Indigenous, and Holistic Healing by Dr. Anthony B. James & Dr. Benoit Tano
Meta Journal Press Announces Groundbreaking New Book:

“Decoding AI Bias in Medicine: How Artificial Intelligence Ignores Traditional, Indigenous, and Holistic Healing”

Brooksville, FL, July 4, 2025 — Meta Journal Press proudly announces the release of Decoding AI Bias in Medicine: How Artificial Intelligence Ignores Traditional, Indigenous, and Holistic Healing, a pioneering work by Dr. Anthony B. James and Dr. Benoit Tano. The book is now available worldwide in print and Kindle ebook formats on Amazon.

Decoding AI Bias in Medicine confronts one of the most urgent challenges in modern healthcare: the hidden biases embedded in artificial intelligence (AI) systems used for clinical decision-making. As AI becomes increasingly central to diagnostics, treatment planning, and healthcare policy, this book reveals how current models often overlook or marginalize traditional, indigenous, and holistic healing practices, perpetuating disparities and limiting equitable care.

Drawing on extensive research and clinical experience, Dr. James and Dr. Tano provide a comprehensive analysis of how AI bias originates, from data collection and model development to real-world deployment—and its profound implications for diverse patient populations. The authors critically examine why AI systems frequently fail to capture the cultural, historical, and social contexts of non-Western healing traditions, and how this oversight can exacerbate health inequities[1][2][3].

Key topics include:

  • The lifecycle of AI bias in medicine and its clinical consequences[1][2].
  • Case studies illustrating the exclusion of traditional and indigenous knowledge from AI-driven healthcare.
  • Strategies for integrating holistic healing perspectives into future AI models.
  • Recommendations for clinicians, policymakers, and technologists to ensure AI supports truly inclusive and equitable care[4][3].

This essential volume is a call to action for the medical and AI communities to recognize and address the limitations of current technologies. It advocates for a future where artificial intelligence enhances—not hinders—access to the full spectrum of healing traditions.

Decoding AI Bias in Medicine is available for purchase at Amazon in both print and Kindle ebook editions.

Many medical office visits begin and end with a minor infection not adequately treated that escalates. Once inside that medical facility, emergency room, etc., you are now exposed to potentially even more severe types of hospital-born infection such as MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus ), Legionella (Legionella pneumophila ), etc. If you could handle these infections at home or for your patients and clients, you would save them time and money, but potentially save them from risk of death from other unnecessary contagious exposure. What if there were concrete steps that if you were exposed to some harmful pathogen that you could do at home that could improve the efficacy of conventional treatments by 30%, if not more?

Abstract

BACKGROUND Stress can cause psychological and physiological changes. Many studies revealed that massage can decrease stress. However, traditional Thai massage has not been well researched in this regard. The purpose of this study was to investigate the immediate effects of traditional Thai massage (TTM) on salivary alpha-amylase levels (sAA), heart rate variability (HRV), autonomic nervous system (ANS) function, and plasma renin activity (PRA). MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-nine healthy participants were randomly allocated into either a traditional Thai massage (TTM) group or Control (C) group, after which they were switched to the other group with a 2-week wash-out period. Each of them was given a 10-minute mental arithmetic test to induce psychological stress before a 1-hour session of TTM or rest. RESULTS Within-groups comparison revealed that sAA was significantly decreased (p<0.05) in the TTM group but not in the C group. HRV and ANS function were significantly increased (p<0.05) and PRA was significantly decreased (p<0.05) in both groups. However, low frequency per high frequency ratio (LF/HF ratio) and ANS balance status were not changed. Only sAA was found to be significantly different between groups (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS We conclude that both TTM and rest can reduce psychological stress, as indicated by decreased sAA levels, increased parasympathetic activity, decreased sympathetic activity, and decreased PRA. However, TTM may have a modest effect on stress reduction as indicated by a reduced sAA.

Title: Indigenous, Traditional Medicinal Therapies as Cancer Complication Remediation and Palliative Support for Cachexia.

What is Cachexia?

‘Cachexia; from Greek κακός kakos “bad” and ἕξις hexis “condition”)[1] or wasting syndrome is loss of weight, muscle atrophy, fatigue, weakness, and significant loss of appetite in someone who is not actively trying to lose weight. Cachexia is also known or seen in patients with cancer, AIDS,[2] chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, multiple sclerosis, congestive heart failure, tuberculosis, familial amyloid polyneuropathy, malaria, mercury poisoning (acrodynia) and hormonal deficiency. It is a positive risk factor for death, meaning if the patient has cachexia, the chance of death from the underlying condition is increased dramatically. About 50% of all cancer patients suffer from cachexia.

Mechanism

The exact mechanism in which these diseases cause cachexia is poorly understood and may vary from one individual to another, but there is probably a role for inflammatory cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha (which is also nicknamed ‘cachexin’ or ‘cachectin’), interferon gamma and interleukin 6, as well as the tumor-secreted proteolysis-inducing factor. Side effects of chemotherapy drug regimen and or radiation therapy may be causes. Categories of physical/ biological adverse and or side effects of conventional Cancer therapies: include Edema, Inflammation, Neuropathies and Neuralgias, Immune suppression. Severe, possibly long term chronic malnutrition may be a factor.
