Abstract: Autophagy is a natural cellular process that removes damaged organ cells and proteins. It is strongly influenced by fasting duration. Autophagy is a highly regulated cellular process that plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis by degrading damaged organelles and misfolded proteins. Fasting is one of the most effective methods for activating autophagy, triggering a cascade of biochemical processes at the molecular level. This article presents a mathematical framework… Read More »Autophagy During Fasting: Mathematical Modeling and Insights

Abstract Oxidative stress (OS) arises when there is an excess of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) relative to the body’s antioxidant defenses. This imbalance can lead to cellular damage, inflammation, and chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disorders, and neurodegenerative conditions. Mitochondria play a central role in both ROS production and immune responses, making them key regulators in inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. Neuroinflammation is a critical… Read More »Oxidative Stress, Mitochondria, and the Mathematical Dynamics of Immunity and Neuroinflammation

In Indian culture, education has the highest priority. Vasant Panchami is a time to start the spring season, and education. It is the time to align with the Goddess Saraswati for knowledge, wisdom, values, creativity, and spiritual growth. It typically falls on the fifth day (Panchami) of the lunar month of Magha. The Saraswati mantras are important for subconscious mind purification.  Vasant Panchami is a festival that brings with it… Read More »Vasant Panchami Saraswati Puja Timings, Rituals, Benefits, Significances, and the Mantras

Well-being is the cornerstone of modern health, emotional resilience, and overall quality of life. As we navigate a rapidly changing world, the urgency of understanding well-being has never been greater. Mental health crises, climate change, and social inequalities are reshaping how we think about the human experience, and it’s clear that well-being is far more than just physical health. It encompasses emotional, psychological, and social dimensions that play an integral… Read More »The Top 10 Well-Being Measurement Scales and Inventories for Evidence-Based Research

The 114 chakras, 72,000 nadis, Five Elements, and Five Koshas form the bedrock of holistic health and healing practices. Both Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and Ayurveda weave these ancient principles into their approaches, offering profound insights into wellness and balance. While TCM focuses on the Five Elements—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water—Ayurveda emphasizes the interplay of Ether, Air, Fire, Water, and Earth. Together, these systems provide a roadmap for harmonizing… Read More »Five Elements of TCM vs Ayurveda for Health, Healing & Wellness

The term “Vaikuntha” refers to the eternal abode of Lord Vishnu, a realm of unending bliss, peace, and unity. “Ekadashi,” signifying the eleventh day of the lunar cycle, is traditionally associated with fasting, meditation, and spiritual practices. Vaikuntha Ekadashi is considered the day when the “Vaikuntha Dwaram,” or the celestial gates of Vaikuntha, open for souls aspiring for moksha (liberation). This day symbolizes the journey of the soul’s ascent—moving from… Read More »Vaikuntha Ekadashi: Benefits, Significance, Science, and Spirituality

As AI technologies advance and infiltrate more aspects of our daily lives, they raise fundamental ethical questions about their impact on human life and society. Can we trust these systems? Are they fair? Are they sustainable? If we’re going to live in a world increasingly driven by AI, we need ways to measure its impact. That’s where the idea of indexes comes in—to help us separate responsible intelligence from its… Read More »Measuring AI Ethics: The 10 Indexes for Responsible vs Irresponsible AI

To understand the science of intermittent fasting, it is helpful to explore the mathematics behind it. The theory of intermittent fasting is based on the idea that restricting food intake for certain periods allows the body to adapt by burning fat, improving metabolic health, and activating processes like autophagy. During fasting, the body uses stored energy (mainly from glycogen and fat) to fuel itself, which triggers various biochemical pathways. While… Read More »Mathematical Model of Liver Functions During Intermittent Fasting
