  • Acupuncture Meridians Are REAL? The Primo Vascular System Discovery
    Feb 20 2026

    For 2,000 years, anatomists said acupuncture meridians didn't exist. In 1963, a North Korean surgeon found them — then vanished. In 2002, a physicist at Seoul National University turned on a fluorescent dye and lit them up again. In 2016, Auburn University independently confirmed it.This is the story of the Primo Vascular System (PVS) — a microscopic network of channels hiding inside your blood vessels, lymph vessels, and organs. It carries stem cells, biophotons, and immune cells simultaneously. And it may be the physical proof of what Chinese medicine has been describing for millennia.

    This is Episode 05 of The Future Qi — an investigative series bridging Traditional Chinese Medicine and modern science. Not pseudoscience cheerleading. Not dismissal. Just evidence.

  • Your Body’s Check Engine Light: The 2,000-Year-Old Secret Your Phone Knows
    Feb 18 2026

    Welcome to the end of the road trip through the human body. 🚗💨

    If your car’s check engine light came on, you’d know what to do. But what about your body?

    In this finale of our "Check Engine" series, we explore the "Grand Unification" of Ancient Wisdom and Future Tech. We reveal how Artificial Intelligence has mastered the final two frontiers of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM): Listening (Auscultation) and Smelling (Olfaction).

    But this isn't just about ancient scrolls. It's about the phone in your pocket. 📱 Why can an AI diagnose heart disease from your voice? Why can an "E-Nose" smell diabetes on your breath? And what happens when the machine knows you're sick before you do?

  • Your Ear is a USB Port to Your Brain (Hacking the Vagus Nerve)
    Feb 15 2026

    What if your headphones weren't just for music, but a direct line to your nervous system?

    In Part 3 of our "Check Engine" series, we discover the body’s hidden OBD Port: The Ear.

    We’re moving beyond just reading the dashboard (Tongue & Pulse). Today, we find the keyboard. We uncover the mind-blowing link between Ancient Chinese Medicine’s "Inverted Fetus" map and modern "Earable" technology. Whether you call it "Shen Men" or "Vagus Nerve Stimulation," the science is the same: your ear is a biological backdoor, and you can hack it to lower stress, stop pain, and reboot your brain.

    From US Air Force "Battlefield Acupuncture" that stops pain in minutes, to the "NADA Protocol" used in disaster zones, we enable you to hack your own stress response—right now.

    Join the experiment: Have you ever used your ear to hack your stress? Let us know in the comments!

  • Can AI Feel Your Qi? The Science Behind Pulse Diagnosis
    Feb 4 2026

    Can a robot feel the "spirit" in your blood? 🤖❤️

    In this episode of Future Qi, we bridge the 2,000-year gap between Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence. We explore the "Digitalization of Touch"—how machine learning and haptic sensors are validating what ancient masters have known for centuries.

    We unpack the fascinating "War of Worldviews" between Dr. Zang (The Old Master) and Neo (The AI Architect). Is the artery just a rigid pipe, or is it a living river? How can a computer predict pregnancy just by listening to the "music" of your blood flow? And can we eventually record the heartbeat of a loved one to hold their hand long after they are gone?

    Join us as we decode the mathematics behind the mystic.

    In this episode, we cover:

    • The Pipe vs. The River: Why Western medicine sees plumbing, while Eastern medicine sees nature.

    • The 3D Pulse Map: Decoding the Cun, Guan, and Chi positions.

    • Translating Poetry to Physics: How "Wiry" equals arterial stiffness and "Slippery" equals hemodynamics.

    • The Music of the Heart: Using FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) to hear the bass and melody of your blood.

    • Haptic Telemedicine: Feeling a patient's pulse from 6,000 miles away.

    • Digital Immortality: Capturing the "Ghost in the Machine."


      ⚠️Correction Note: Please note that the pulse chart in the video contains an error. The correct mappings are: Left: Cun (HT/SI) | Guan (Liv/GB) | Chi (KD/UB) Right: Cun (LU/LI) | Guan (SP/ST) | Chi (PC/SJ)

  • Is Your Tongue Lying to You? (AI vs. Ancient Wisdom)
    Feb 3 2026

    It’s 6:00 AM. You’re in front of the mirror. You stick out your tongue and panic: “Is that coating normal?” 👅

    In this debut episode, we treat the tongue as the body's "Check Engine Light." Artificial Intelligence can now read it with 98% accuracy (detecting Diabetes before a blood test!), but there is a problem: Modern life is breaking the data.

    We uncover:

    • The "Starbucks Factor": Why your morning coffee is confusing the AI.
    • The "Mobile Paradox": Why beauty filters are erasing your diagnosis.
    • The "Liar Paradox": When a red tongue implies a cold body (True Cold, False Heat).
    • Future Tech: Hyperspectral imaging and "The Daily Tongue Tracker" app.
