This theme that the author will write in this editorial is based on her clinical observations in the care and treatment of patients with Down’s syndrome. In the article written by Akhtar and Bokhari (2021) entitled Down Syndrome, they are saying that this syndrome is a genetic alteration caused the presence of all or only part of the third chromosome 21. These patients present growth retardation, mild or moderate intellectual disability and characteristic facial mark. [1]

In this article, the author will show one case of 30 years-old female patient with Down’s syndrome that lives with her parents and she also had a boyfriend with Down’s syndrome. The patient had dermatitis in the abdomen and also had an itchiness in the skin, had a large tongue that barely fit in her mouth, started to work in a medical cooperative due to a law in Brazil, so that a company could employ patients with disabilities.

This patient had to be diagnosed in Chinese medicine with Yin deficiency of the Kidney (because of feeling more Hot sensation) and Blood deficiency (due to the bowel habit was not daily) and formation of internal Heat (due to the condition of dermatitis). Also, the physician did the chakras’ energy measurement of this patient and revealed that all her chakras’ energy centers were completely deficient in energy (rated one out eight), with exception of the seventh chakra (spiritual chakra), that was normal, rated in eight.

The author orientate the patient to avoid some kinds of foods according to Chinese dietary therapy (avoiding dairy products, raw food, cold water and sweets. It was also advised the patient to avoid coffee, soda and mate tea and the last group of foods to avoid was fried foods, eggs, honey, coconut, alcoholic beverages and melted cheese. She was treated using acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting and replenishment of the chakras’ energy centers using homeopathic medication, according to the theory created by the author entitled Constitutional Homeopathy of Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, where the author links homeopathy medications created by Hahnemann (1755 - 1843), with traditional Chinese medicine’s reasoning. Using this theory, the physician can treat the root of all problems at the same time (that are the energy imbalances between Yin, Yang, Qi and Blood) , that are normally produced and distributed by the five internal massive organs. [2, 3]

The theory of balancing the internal energy to achieve cure of most diseases at the same time was presented in an Acupuncture Research Conference that was held in Harvard Medical School, in Boston, United States, in 2015, where the logic of the study was that if the physician treats the energy imbalances between Yin, Yang, Qi and Blood of the patients, all the clinical emotional and physical symptoms and diseases will be treated at the same time. [2, 3]

What we see in the characteristics of Down’s syndrome patients is that they can be characterized as a mental deficit. In the article written by Dykens (2007) entitled Psychiatric and behavioral disorders in persons with Down syndrome, she is saying that these patients have broad intellectual disabilities and there is a gap between the treatment of this kinds of mental health associated with Down’s syndrome. [4]

In this article, the author will show another point of view regarding the treatment of conditions associated with Down’s syndrome, rebalancing the internal energy using Chinese dietary counseling, auricular acupuncture with apex ear bloodletting and replenishing the energy of all internal organs, with highly diluted medication, such as homeopathies according to Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine and replenishing these energies, and the author will show an improvement of the patient’s physical, mental, emotional aspects and also in the intellectual level. [2]

In the article written by Lott (2013) entitled Neurological phenotypes for Down syndrome across the life span, she is saying that patients with down’s syndrome have neuroanatomic alterations such as alterations in the gross brain structure characterized as microdysgenetic alterations. [5]

The treatment of energy deficiency in these patients with Down syndrome brought more intelligence, better mental, physical, fitness to face all obstacles at work, in competitions in the sport that she was doing (swimming) and more balance to face and solve everyday problems. [2, 3]

The use of homeopathic medicines according to the Constitutional Homeopathy of the Five Elements Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine , has been a very important tool to give life to these patients, just as the world population also have intense chakras’ energy centers deficient in energy, who are in a condition of extremely lack of energy from the 5 internal massive organs (Kidney, Liver, Heart, Spleen, Lung), as Huang (2021) wrote in the article entitled Energy Alterations and Chakras’ Energy Deficiencies and Propensity to SARS-CoV-2 Infection. [2, 6]

In addition to energy replenishment of the chakras’ energy centers, the author always reorients the patients with Down’s Syndrome nutrition, according to Chinese dietary therapy, to avoid ingesting various foods, with the purpose of improving the absorption of nutrients that is normally the responsibility of Spleen and pancreas meridian , that are normally not usually balanced (fifth chakra), causing the malabsorption of all the nutrients that the patient is ingesting, causing to a less Blood production, leading to the deficiency of the other massive internal organs, which depend on this absorption of nutrients of the Spleen-pancreas. [2, 3]

By balancing and strengthening the five massive internal organs of the patient with Down’s syndrome, the patient can have more physical, mental and spiritual health and also improve their intelligence, which is governed by the Kidney (second chakra) and thus have a more balanced and healthy state. [7]

Through this case reported in this editorial, we can show that often, patients with Down syndrome are rated as lacking in intelligence, lack of energy to exercise their physical, mental and intellectual activities and are often rated as those caused by the disease syndrome itself of Down syndrome. But actually, there are natural forces within that patient's body that are out of balance and that are causing the symptoms of these patients. These imbalances and energy deficiencies probably have, as one of the factors, the influences of other things existing in the environment in which the patient lives, such as the influences of electromagnetic radiation that are generating changes in the energy of the physical body of these patients, and leading to these consequences, which are often labeled as caused by the disease itself. The treatment of these energy imbalances shows us that there is an improvement in these symptoms in these patients, which were often said to be caused by the Down’s syndrome disease, but there are other energies that make up the physical and mental body of the patient, who are disabled, and that we can act to improve the quality of life of these patients. [3, 8].

The author does not yet know that if the energy deficiencies found in these patients would be the cause of the alterations that predisposed them for the formation of chromosomal alteration, or that the patients presented these alterations after having already had a genetic alteration. So, more studies using more patients in these analysis need to be done in order to understand deeply what is happening in patients with Down’s syndrome, in the energy point of view, that we do not know and understand yet. [4]

 According to Hippocrates (460 bce - 375 bce), natural forces within us are the true healers of the disease. According to him, we need to treat the patient (energy imbalances) and not just treating the diseases ( that is the Down’s syndrome). [9]
