HBOT News Network welcomes back Dr. Hemal V. Mehta, M.D.; Medical Director of Vibrant Health of North Carolina. Dr. Mehta has joined HBOT News Network three times previously, where we focused heavily on the topics of fasting & regenerative medicine – see Dr. Mehta & Fasting, Dr. Mehta & Fasting (Part 2), and Dr. Mehta & Regenerative Medicine.
We are thrilled to have Dr. Mehta return to discuss Vibrant Health University. Vibrant Health University is a new start-up educational program through Vibrant Health. It is a way to help educate, not just the public, but also providers who are interested in performing regenerative therapies, regenerative injections, and providing an alternative to patients that’s not typically available.
Vibrant Health University wants to steer the medical field and general public away from the traditional heavy focus of pharmacology and surgical techniques; and educate people more on the integrative approaches available for regenerative therapies and regenerative treatments. What people can expect from Vibrant Health University (once it gets up and going), is a variety of online programs and podcasts they can watch. Then, if interested further, physicians can choose the option for an in-person educational program where Dr. Mehta or his team can visit the physician’s office (or the physician can visit them) and the physician can then witness live demonstrations, and learn how to do proper procedures for regenerative treatments, while incorporating their protocols into their treatment plans.
The courses at Vibrant Health University will be a structured program with a certification process. Dr. Mehta explains that they are planning to provide different tiers. For example, a lower tier, a medium tier, and a higher tier of education to providers based on their level of expertise, and based on how much knowledge they already have and how much they want to obtain. The ultimate goal of the program is to have the courses accredited by the appropriate certifying boards to count as continuing medical education for physicians.
Dr. Mehta & di Giralomo spend time discussing the importance of physician education, the continued benefits of fasting, and how to gain control of excessive inflammation.
Dr. Mehta remind us of Vibrant Health’s focus — to integrate traditional and non-traditional medicine to give each patient the best outlook and care. Ultimately, integrative medicine is integrating functional medicine and holistic therapies with what we’ve learned through history regarding how the human body works. God gave us everything we need to survive from the beginning of human life. Dr. Mehta ends this segment by explaining through the study of medicine, it’s incredibly difficult to not believe that there is a God or a higher power that has created this body. The human body is made to be able to tolerate all kinds of different injuries, in all kinds of different aspects of life, while adapting to the environment. There is absolutely no other machine that man has ever made that’s even similar to the divine healing capabilities of the human body.

Therapeutic use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for children with autism spectrum disorder
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is neurodevelopment disorder, characterized by impairment in social interaction, verbal and non-verbal communication and the presence of restricted and repetitive stereotyped behaviors. The condition manifests within the first 3 years of life and persists till adulthood. At present, the etiology of ASD is largely unknown, but genetic, environmental, immunological, and neurological factors are thought to play a role in the development of ASD. The prevalence of ASD has increased dramatically in the past few decades. According to current estimates from the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as many as 1 in 91 children have ASD in USA.
