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.

Clinical Trial – Intraumbilical Amino Acids and Glucose Supplementation Via Port by Severe IUGR in Human Fetuses
Placental insufficiency is responsible for fetal loss in about 40% of all stillbirths and
long term neurological deficits. The mean interval from diagnosis of brain sparing of severe
IUGR fetuses to delivery has been recently identified by only seven days (Flood K et al, Am J
Obstetrics and Gynecology 2014).
The critical placental player in the active amino acids (AA) transport from the mother to the
fetus is the trophoblast, which is irreversibly changed in severe IUGR fetuses caused by
placental insufficiency. Thus, a logical partial solution of IUGR could be the direct supply
of AAs and glucose to the fetus, in order to improve the fetal growth, normalize the fetal
programming and to prolong the pregnancy.
The aim of this prospective pilot study is to further test the efficacy of the administration
of AAs and glucose supplementation with hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO), via a subcutaneously
implanted intraumbilical perinatal port system, as a treatment option for severe IUGR human
fetuses with brain sparing.
