Evaluation of the Energy of Consciousness Healing Treated <i>Withania Somnifera</i> (Ashwagandha) Root Extract Using LC-MS, GC-MS, and NMR Spectroscopy

Abstract

Abstract:Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) root extract is very useful herbal medicine since from ancient time. The current study designed to investigate the impact of The Trivedi Effect ® -Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment on the structural properties of the ashwagandha root hydroalcoholic extract using LC-MS, GC-MS, and NMR spectroscopy. Ashwagandha root extract was divided into two parts -one part was control (without treatment), while other part was treated with the Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment remotely by seven renowned Biofield Energy Healers and defined as the Biofield Energy Treated sample. The LC-MS analysis revealed that the retention time of the phytoconstituents remained same in both the control and treated samples, whereas the peak area % at respective retention time was significantly altered. The peak area% of the treated sample at R t of 5. 3, 5.5, 6.4, 6.5, 6.8, 6.9, 7.1, 7.3, 7.8, 7.9, 8.0, 8.2, 8.4, 8.6, 8.8, 9.0, 9.1, and 10.1 minutes were significantly reduced by 0.57% to 38.10% compared to the control sample. In addition, the peak area% of the treated sample at R t of 5.7, 6.7, and 8.1 minutes were significantly increased by 16.00%, 244.44% and 19.62%, respectively compared with the control sample. A total of 21 withanolides such as withanoside IV, coagulin Q, viscosa lactone B, withanolide A, withaferin A, withanone, withanolide D, ixocarpalactone A and withanolide sulfoxide, ixocarpalactone A, withanolide sulfoxide, withanolide B, etc. were proposed with their structure from the molecular mass at m/z 783, 569, 621, 489, 473, 767, 471, 505, 992, and 455 at retention times of 6. 4, 6.5, 6.8, 7.1, 7.9, 8.1, 8.4, 9.1, and 10.1 minutes with the help of GC-MS and NMR data of both the control and Biofield Energy Treated samples. There were significant changes observed in the peak intensity values at the same retention time in the Biofield Energy Treated sample in the range of -75.32% to 108.51% compared with the control sample. These findings suggest that The Trivedi Effect ® -Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment could be beneficial for altering the concentration of the phytoconstituents in the ashwagandha root extract by modifying their intrinsic physicochemical properties, which might be helpful to improve the bioavailability of active constituents of W. somnifera extract that might provide better therapeutic response against inflammatory diseases, immunological disorders, stress, arthritis, cancer, diabetes, sexual disorders, aging and other chronic infections.

The Influence of Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment on Low Bioavailable Resveratrol in Male Sprague Dawley Rats

“…Biofield Energy Treatment leads to receive the energy by the object and respond in a useful way, while The Trivedi Effect ® has been reported with the significant discovery in both living organisms and nonliving materials. The Trivedi Effect ® has been described with significant transformation in the physicochemical properties of metals, chemicals, ceramics and polymers [18][19][20][21][22], improved agricultural crops overall productivity, yield and quality by several folds [23][24], altered antimicrobial characteristics of pathogenic microbes at genetic level [25][26][27], improved activity of nutraceutical compounds [28,29], livestock [30], and many more.…”

“…Recently, it has been reported in the literature that The Trivedi Effect ® has the significant capability to alter the physicochemical and thermal properties of various pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and organic compounds through possible intervention of neutrinos [31,28]. The Trivedi Effect ® -Consciousness Energy Healing Treatment would be a useful approach for the enhancement of the bioavailability of pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals.…”

A Study on the Effect of the Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment on Physicochemical and Thermal Properties of Vitamin D<sub>3</sub> (Cholecalciferol)

“…Biofield Energy Healing Treatment (The Trivedi Effect ® ) is drawing importance in several fields include material science [12], pharmaceuticals [13], nutraceuticals [14], organic compounds [15,16], microbiology [17], agricultural [18], biotechnology [19], genetics [20], medical [21] due to its amazing ability for modification of the characteristic properties of the numerous non-living and living substances. Recently literature reported that The Trivedi Effect ® -Energy of Consciousness Healing Treatment has the astounding capability to alter physicochemical properties such as crystalline structure, crystallite size, particle size, surface area, and thermal stability of various nutraceuticals such as herbal medicines, minerals through introducing a new polymorph [22][23][24][25][26]. It is assumed that Biofield Energy Treated pharmaceutical/nutraceutical compounds would be beneficial for enhancement of their therapeutic efficacy against the diseases.…”
