 Fellowship in Endobiogenic Medicine: Integrative Physiology and Clinical Phytotherapy
The fellowship in endobiogeny will change the way you
practice medicine forever. It offers a clear method of
understanding both why and how an individual becomes
ill and how to bring them into a state of balance. Stop
wondering which supplement to use, or how to evaluate
a patient’s imbalances.

“As a board certified pediatrician with fellowship training in integrative medicine and extensive training in functional medicine, I encourage all practitioners to consider training in Endobiogeny. [This] model has opened up amazing doors of understanding that were unavailable to me before. I feel fortunate to be part of this remarkable medical movement and encourage others to consider it.” —Pejman Katiraei, DO, Medical Director, Wholistic Medicine Clinic, Loma Linda University American Society of Endobiogenic Medicine & Integrative Physiology

Endobiogeny
Endobiogeny is a theory of terrain based on
modern concepts of physiology. It explains how
the body develops, maintains and adapts.
Endobiogeny is holistic and humanistic, transcending
the information-based system of modern medicine
to create a meanings-based system.
The effectiveness of the approach of endobiogeny
comes from the level of analysis used. Functional
medicine is primarily concerned with cellular and
sub-cellular activity, enzymatic pathways and
environmental toxins. Standard medicine focuses on
cell receptors and blocking or forcing their activities.
While these two approaches are detailed and
scientific, they do not contextualize cellular activity
within the whole body as a dynamic system.
Mind-body medicine works at the levels of
neurotransmitters, the autonomic nervous system,
and a general sense of hormonal and immune system
activity in the body. However, it does not offer a
comprehensive evaluation of how the body or the
mind develop or become out of balance, nor how the
of the body is managed and maintained.
complexity
Endobiogney asks, “What is the manager of this
complex, dynamic system called the human body?”
and answers, “The endocrine system.” It is the only
system that is ubiquitous, regulates other systems and
regulates itself. It is the only system that initiates life
before there is a mind, a nervous system, or an
immune system. But going upstream to the level of
management, endobiogeny evaluates in reality, all
levels of function from the sub-cellular to the mind, but
always seeks to inter-related these findings with a
global context of the living human being vs. a
collection of cells functioning autonomously.
“My patients appreciate the fact that when I talk to them I’m understanding their physiology and patterns of disease a really deep level. [The fellowship in endobiogeny] at has given me an understanding I could not have gotten anywhere else. It informs the way I practice and will continue to for the rest of my career.” —Amy Chadwick, ND, Palmer, Alaska Biology of Functions The biology of functions is a blood-based testing
system unlike any system currently available. It
provides depth, meaning and context to lab results by
describing the terrain of the individual, as well as the
origin and purpose of physiologic states. It facilitates
the development of a treatment plan unique to each
patient. The findings can be applied to any type of
medicine, from Chinese to standard Western medicine.
The results from the biology of functions can guide the
proper selection of drugs, medicinal plants,
intravenous nutrients, and other types of therapies. American Society of Endobiogenic Medicine & Integrative Physiology

Treatment
The depth of understanding that endobiogeny offers
allows the clinician to rationally select treatments
based on the actual state of their patient and not
based on generic protocols or best guesses of what
may work. The emphasis is on natural plant
preparations such as tinctures,
gemmotherapy,
medicinal teas and aromatherapy. Unique dietary
regimens, cleanses and lifestyle modifications will
also be taught.
The Fellowship In Endobiogeny “As a board certified pediatrician with fellowship training in integrative medicine and extensive training in functional medicine, I encourage all practitioners to consider training in Endobiogeny. [This] model has opened up amazing doors of understanding that were unavailable to me before. I feel fortunate to be part of this remarkable medical movement and encourage others to consider it.” —Pejman Katiraei, DO, Medical Director, Wholistic Medicine Clinic, Loma Linda University “I find that there are a lot of parallels between endobiogeny and osteopathy. Endobiogeny looks at the global system from the perspective of the endocrine system. Osteopathy looks at the global system from the perspective of the fascia. I believe that they work well together. Evaluating patients using the endobiogenic method has given more depth to my practice. My manual treatments hold better in conjunction with my endobiogenic treatments.” —Beth Thompson DO, San Diego, Ca “After years of practicing conventional medicine, I became frustrated. When I found endobiogeny, I found what I was looking for to better treat my patients. Under Kamyar Hedayat’s instruction, I have been given a vast amount of tools to treat my patients. The training has given my the skills that I need to help patients get better.” —Laramie Wheeler, DO, FAAP Ammon, Idaho American Society of Endobiogenic Medicine & Integrative Physiology
The fellowship is a 23 month program that:
•
Is practical, allowing students to start applying
the endobiogenic system from the end of the first
seminar
•
Teaches how to approach any physiologic
imbalance in a rational and systematic method
based on assessing the neuroendocrine etiology
of imbalance
•
Teaches how to apply corrective and regulating
therapeutic strategies, be it with medicinal plants,
vitamins, minerals, essential fatty
homeopathy,
acids, probiotics, dietary or lifestyle modifications
