In the evolution of humanity, the scientific relationship between the Theory of the Five Elements described in the Eastern philosophy and science of physics, cosmology, evolution, biology and medicine is still not clearly known. Consequently, physicists, anthropologists, biologists and medical scientists have been investigating to find objective proofs and clinical evidences that would elucidate it. In this study, findings and discoveries in sciences of these arenas are examined to find the scientific relationship. The relationship between the Theory of the Five Elements and science of cosmology, evolution, human embryology, traditional medicine, the newly-discovered Primo Vascular System (Bonghan circulatory system), and lifestyles is proposed on the basis of findings in science and in the perspective of the author’s hypothesis of the “ultron”-“logotron” theory in this study.
