Readers Summary:
1950To understand why I make this prediction, we need to look back in time for a minute and take a comparative look at our planet at 1950. From space, you would probably first notice that millions of pieces of ‘space garbage’ called satellites and the International Space Station is no longer present and had disappeared from orbit around the earth. The moon would appear six and a half feet closer to earth back then. Moreover, the continents of Europe and North America would be four feet closer together. Antarctica would have been a few degrees colder and its western shore would be frozen solid water and not be mixing with seawater of the Southern Ocean, as it is today. Zooming in for a closer shot, you would be able to spot some of the industrial clamberings of the Golden Age of Capitalism in the West and some of the stilted attempts at the Great Leap Forward in the East. Lasers, barcodes, contraceptives, hydrogen bombs, semiconductor chips, credit cards, synthesizers, superglue, Barbie dolls, pharmaceuticals, factory farming, and distortion pedals for electric guitars would just be coming into existence on the surface of our planet. All this happened in the last 63 years. All of these things were the forebearer of the massive increase in the use of fossil fuels used to create electric power to electrify the surface of the tectonic plates of continents of the earth. There would be 66 percent fewer humans on the planet than there are now. Over a million different species of plants and animals living in 1950, would exist, that have since gone extinct in those 63 years. There would be 90 percent more fish in the oceans, a billion fewer tons of plastic in our garbage dumps, and 40 percent more phytoplankton in our oceans. There would be 200 percent as many trees covering the land and about three times more drinking water available from ancient aquifers planet-wide. There would be about 80 percent more ice covering the north pole during the summer season and 30 percent less carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere. The earth’s magnetosphere would still be relatively stable, as it was for the last 4000 years. None of these conditions currently exist any longer on this planet. Why should you care today in 2013? Well, begin by looking at the incidence and prevalence of neolithic diseases since the same time. You will notice a distinct coupling. How the Macrocosm of Space Meets the Microcosm of the Planetary Field All of these events have another evil twin called ocean stratification. This is an even more important factor in nature that few seem to understand. Water chemistry is a huge factor in life. Moreover, it is tied directly to the last chapter in my book, The Epi-paleo Rx. We are losing one of our best defenses to mitigate excessive environmental non-native EMF, as seafood dwindles in our oceans. When seawater temperature rises for any environmental reason, oxygen diffuses out of it. When your temperature rises, oxygen diffuses out of your tissues too! These are natural chemical and physical laws of the universe people. Biology is not immune to these laws. Biologists just act as is if they are. When oxygen drops in the ocean so do iron levels in seawater. When iron falls in you, so does your tissue oxygenation. You have much in common with Mother earth. Iron levels in our ocean are have been measured and are dropping today. Iron is an element that is vital for life. In fact, every form of life on this planet uses it to some degree to make sense out of the random chaos of the chemistry of atoms that life orders together to make the beautiful musical composition that is life. For humans, metabolism requires iron in many tissues. The thyroid can not maintain energy balance without it working in its proper context in a cell. iron carries oxygen to tissues in our cells via hemoglobin. We can measure hemoglobin and oxygen disassociation rates in medicine easily today. Do you know what happens to seawater when iron falls? It changes the color of seawater. A loss of iron can paradoxically make the ocean water crystal blue clear and devoid of life. Anyone who has seen the water around the tropics or the equator know the water there has always been really blue. It is not blue the further you get away from the equator. What else should you know about blue sea water and may not? The bluer sea water is, the less life it contains. The further north or south you go from the equator ocean water becomes green. When iron is present in abundance the water is green and filled with life. What else do humans need iron for? Without iron our immune system crashes, we become dazed and confused, cold and very lethargic. Our metabolic rates can plummet. Neuro-immunity, it turns out, is tied to proper iron levels too! If you think iron does not have amazing properties, think about this geologic evolutionary trick that occurred since India crashed into Asia to form the Mount Everest and the Himalayas. Without the formation of the Mount Everest, there would be no Sahara desert. The Sahara desert dumps billions of gallons of iron dust into the oceans to stimulate the phytoplankton that supports the marine life of the North Atlantic by creating oxygen from sunlight in the photic zones in sea water. Moreover, this iron dust also allows the ocean to become a massive sump to generate massive plant growth like seaweeds in the ocean that can absorb massive quantities of CO2 out of the atmosphere to offset all the CO2 humans have been releasing into the air since the Industrial Revolution. What Else Does Iron do for Life? Iron protects the marine food supply from excessive man-made EMF by absorbing excessive EMFs just like it does in the core of a dying star. It is here where space physics should be instructive to us humans about our current healthcare plight. When a star depletes all its hydrogen it begins to fuse heavy elements to make sunlight. As the core of the star changes its fuel source the spectral color of the star also changes its photoelectric effect in its light. In nature, a star explodes when it burns through all of its hydrogen and helium. It then progresses through nuclear fusion turning those gases in its core to other elements. Its core produces energy from hydrogen fusion first, then helium, then carbon, then neon, then oxygen, then silicon, and it all ends in iron. Stars, like humans, also have a life cycle. Very few people see the fractal pattern of human life in a star’s life, but nature does. I think you might need to remember this too. It is going to be quite important as this series goes on. Iron plays an important role in normal brain metabolism. It is a co-factor to enzymes involved in neurotransmitter synthesis and metabolism, and a component of cytochromes essential for energy production in mitochondria. However, iron reacts with oxygen, resulting in the production of neurotoxic free hydroxyl radicals responsible for membrane lipid peroxidation and accumulation of lipofuscin in neurons. Why do you think iron accumulates in neurons when they are sick and dying? In a star, it accumulates iron as it becomes energy depleted and it begins to emit large amounts of EMF before it explodes. Iron is stored in the ferritin protein that is present at higher concentrations in the basal ganglia. Excessive iron accumulation has been associated with various neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson’s disease, atypical parkinsonian disorders, pantothenate kinase-associated neuro-degeneration, Alzheimer’s disease, aceruloplasminemia and different types of hereditary cerebellar ataxias, such as Friedreich ataxia. Iron is not present at birth in neurons, and progressive iron deposition in different structures of the brain accompanies normal aging processes. In healthy adults, the maximum iron concentration is found in the globus pallidus (GP), the red nucleus and the pars reticulata of the substantia nigra (SN). In the dentate nucleus of the cerebellum and in the neostriatum, deposition is much slower. Iron levels are much higher in the gray matter than in the white matter (myelin), with a content ratio ranging from 2:1 to 4:1. How a Dying Star and an Obese Human are Congruent Using Nature’s LawsStars burn bright with light because they first burn hydrogen. As the atomic fuel changes the quality of the photoelectric spectrum of light they emit also changes. Light from hydrogen has a powerful spectral profile. Light from a red giant has a far different spectrum of light. A dying star does not have strong powerful light. The photoelectric effect decreases its spectral power because of the fuel used in nuclear fusion, but the simultaneous frequency of the EMF released from the dying star simultaneously increases dramatically. What else happens as a star loses its energy? It gets larger and has a larger radius along its equator. This causes the star to evolve into a Red Giant. See, an obese person also gets larger radius around their waist when they lose energy too! Remember what I told you in EMF 2? As the dying star begins to burn all its fuel it is left with an iron core and an increasing EMF frequency is emitted from the star. As this powerful EMF ramps up and increases it heats up the iron core of the star and causes it to explode into a supernova. From this stardust all the other elements on chemistry’s periodic table manifest. We are made from the remnants of that very same dust! In fact, life on earth requires 85 of the elements on the periodic table. Seven of the most abundant elements in the universe, hydrogen, helium, oxygen, nitrogen, magnesium, silicon, sulphur and iron are represented in most organisms. This is ingredient list for the recipe of all life. What binds them all to create the whole is that life is is energy, from the star’s photoelectric effect. The fuel it uses to make light alter its color. This color change is very important in spectroscopy of stars. In humans, it is even more important. Humans lose energy in our modern world and emit black box radiation just like a dying star does. In the upcoming Energy and Epigenetic 6 blog, this effect will be seen to be massive. Back to Modern EarthSince 1950, we have lost 90 percent of the fish in our seas. No one seems to notice this. It appears nature is now batting last, in the human line up of priorities. This is when the world’s vertical circulation current, from shallow to deep in the sea, and vice versa, shut down. It becomes important because that’s how oxygen is sent down to the ocean depths via (higher density water) the water column and important marine food sent up via the thermohaline current. This effect is will be felt differently in different places on the earth. This will be felt strongest at the mid-latitudes between the Tropic of Cancer and Capricorn. As it happens, the water there will become bluer as life dies in the ocean. The reason is simple physics. When seawater temperatures rise, oxygen diffuses out of it as we mentioned earlier. Hotter ocean water becomes “less electron dense” and colder water allows more oxygen to become dissolved within it. When there is less electron density in water, the sun’s visible light can not liberate all the electrons to make the maximum amount of energy possible. Electrons give chemicals their specific chemical phenotype in chemistry. It seems many biochemists may have forgotten that very basic natural truth too when we speak about foods. When electron density goes down in chemistry, life also begins to simplify because of a lack of energy to split electrons from water. This limits life ability to survive. This is why water chemistry matters huge to life and to the marine food chain. Water ChemistryAll life transfers energy using chemical redox reactions. This means they involve the transfer of electrons from one substance as a donor to another which is an electron acceptor. They do this based on the math called the reductive potential. (We spoke about the main reducing element in biochemistry in EMF 4: NADPH made from the Pentose Phosphate Pathway (PPP). The reduction potential is based upon the affinity for electrons compared to the affinity of hydrogen for electrons as a baseline. It begs the question then, where do the electrons come from to power these reactions? The short answer is the sun. Albert Szent Georgyi knew electrons and photons held the key to life. He just did not follow that pathway of physics. He was a trained MD, and this is why he fell short. The sun splits water from its molecular chemical composition of H2O into 2 Hydrogen + 2 electrons + oxygen. These electrons are transferred to plants and foodstuffs via photosynthesis on the back of the water molecule. This is why plants, trees, and bacteria need water to grow. Animals have a more complex way of doing it because as more complex life forms they require more energy to power their newer evolutionary designed systems. Animals transfer the electrons from food to their mitochondria using water in a cell as the transfer mechanism. In this process, they use proteins loaded with iron to do it using quantum tunneling. If I were you, I would not forget that point. How Food is Codified by Light and Its Electrons Delivered to CSF Water Foodstuffs just happen to be the way life packages this energy transfer of electrons from plants to animals to deliver them to the inner mitochondrial membrane when we eat to use the power of the sun’s electrons to make chemical energy in ATP. This is how food codifies the photoelectric effect of visible light from our sun for the brain to perceive energy. Moreover, where these electrons come from, is very important for food and for proper brain function. I posted this question over two years ago to some paleo luminaries and “they” did not get the connection at all. The SupraChiasmatic Nucleus of the brain pays attention only to light and dark signals, not to codification of electrons or protons from food. I first eluded to this in Cold Thermogenesis 6. This system is the “digital system” (fast) of light transfer in the brain we spoke about in Brain gut 11 through the eye and into the SCN. This is the major circadian clock of life forms. Light sets the photoperiod and vitamin A cycle in the human brain. There is another system in the brain that works as an “analog system” (slower) alongside this digital system. It uses other tissues derived from neuro-ectodermal tissues in an embryo to power itself. Skin happens to be one of these tissues. The skin also collects sunlight to make Vitamin D from UVB light. The gut collects the sun’s photons and electrons from these seasonal food sources based upon where the animal is on the planet. Both of these neural circadian systems act in unison to help activate the DC current that begins in the brain/Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) interface surrounding our brain’s surface and then oozes out of our spinal nerves above our peripheral nerve fibers that control motor and sensation but are below our myelin layers. This layer of CSF forms the interfacial water of Schwann cells and oligodendroglia in the CNS and PNS. Every Schwann cell, oligodendroglia cell, and microglia cell in humans has been found by electron microscopy to have open nanopores in their cell membranes linking these water molecules together in this system. Becker was the first scientist to show how they work in human bone regeneration. Later on, Becker found this DC current was also found to be present in all vertebrates, to regenerate their own tissues. Once again, the DC current is an experimentally proven scientific fact since the 1960s. In Energy and Epigenetics 1, I showed you how the human infant myelinates its own brain normally. It does it well only in ketosis from its mother’s milk, which is designed by evolution to be chock full of fats and proteins. Here we see that fats are critical in myelin maturation. Seventy percent of myelin is fat, whose substrate building blocks are found in human milk. This assumes a mother breastfeeds her child. This shows you how food electrons are processed in a growing nervous system. So how else might food affect this analog system by evolutionary design? Food electrons primarily affect the peripheral molecular clocks in organs like the liver and the gut by using incretin hormones hormone system. This system is part of the analog system for neural circadian control. As the electrons are stripped from the food they are being carried to the inner mitochondrial membrane. The amount of electrons in food is also directly tied to the microbiota present in the gut, too. Few people seem to know that certain gut microbiota is immune to the effects of non-native EMF like lactobacillus. Remember, bacteria make energy from the photoelectric effect, too. This means that our gut microbiota also is codified by the food we eat in seasons. As the season roll on, the earth’s native EMF also changes in a subtle fashion. This means the brain has to be able to sense this change, and it does. How it does it is nothing short of amazing. It is also why certain gut bacteria are associated with obesity and thinness. No one seems to see this homology. I do. This is a story tied to the electromagnetic spectrum. This adds a layer of complexity but how the environmental information gets codified by the brain is the same in all animals. The Two Circadian SystemsThe vagus nerve connects the digital and analog systems together in the brain. It also is the protector of the blood-brain barrier, the gut barrier and the pneumo-environmental barrier in humans. The vagus nerve connects the entire gut down to the transverse mesocolon of the hindgut to the fourth ventricle of the brainstem. This ventricle is filled with CSF and the vagus nerve is covered with myelin in connection with this CSF. This is how the “central digital” circadian system of the SCN and the “analog circadian system” of the gut are linked to light and the timing of food grown in the environment so that the signals can be yoked via the area postrema and the median eminence in the brain. These are two areas of the brain do not have a blood-brain barrier so the electron density in the CSF is accurately tied to the local environment. The area postrema and median eminence are called the circumventricular organs. Both of them are bathed in CSF that surrounds the brain. The digital circadian signals project visible light photons from the retina to the median eminence to affect hormone release in the pituitary. The analog system from the gut’s photoelectric code for food projects directly to the area postrema. This unifies how the analog and digital circadian signals in the brain work in unison to tell an organism what their energy balance is at any time of the year by counting electron density in the CSF. Within CSF layers there also is a stratification of water by density as well. This is another example of the fractal design of how water stratification occurs in the oceans to create oxygen. This is also how the central clock and peripheral clocks yoke the photoelectric effect from the different sources in our environment. It should be intuitive now why environmental mismatches in the brain are perceived as a mixed message by our leptin receptor in the hypothalamus now. You leptin receptor job is to count the electron density in CSF that surrounds it to send this information to different areas of the body. When we have any mismatch in the photoelectric signaling in the hypothalamus, the result in a cell with the leptin receptor is molecular crowding. Molecular crowding is a synonym for inflammation. Inflammation is a synonym for leptin resistance. Key Point: It is why eating carbohydrates out of their proper light/growing season will alter dopamine and prolactin levels due primarily to altered light signals from both systems. It also why melatonin signals are linked in the digital system to light and dark cycles. Proper melatonin signaling is tied to proper calcium signaling and proper melanopsin signaling that uses calcium signaling in the brain’s pineal gland as well. They must match in the brain; if they do not, all hell breaks loose, and illness follows. Geek Fest for Electrons from the Photoelectric EffectWhy is the magic of water so important to our brain? Consider how plants do it: to synthesize one molecule of glucose by photosynthesis in plants, 24 electrons must be removed from water molecules by sunlight alone. These electrons are held by the redox potential of oxygen (+0.82V). They are pumped uphill to carbon atoms that are partially reduced to a carbohydrate with a redox potential of -0.42 V. The potential energy difference is 1.24 Volts. This change in free energy is in the positive direction. The result of this energy transfer creates 2870.2 kJoules of energy. This is an astounding amount of energy capture when you understand the quantum dance of the sun’s photoelectric power on the water. Water becomes essentially liquid sunshine for any cell. This is why trees and plants only need water and sun to grow. They don’t need food, as animals do because they spend 100 percent of their life connected to the ground and 100 percent of their life with their canopy in the sun. Animals do not. Therefore, they need different ways to manufacture the electrons the sun’s power to split water into electrons. Did you know that all bacteria, fungi and archaea, plants and trees also have the analog DC electric current? They do. They do not have the digital current because they do not use food or vitamin D. To codify this information for complex systems requires a neurologic system. Photosynthesis is where evolution initially came up with the DC electric current. As life got more complex, so did circadian signaling and this is why animals evolved a brain and came up with the adipocyte and subcutaneous fat stores. Less simple life forms did not evolve body fat because they codified all their energy needs in light and water only. A life that moves across the earth (animals), not connected to the earth, sun, or water 100 percent of the time, got “the energy of the photoelectric effect” in food and other ways. Life was quite smart tapping the potential of water for electrons in this fashion. Nothing in the universe has the ability to transfer energy this well or this easy to create complexity. This helps explain why water makes up 71 percent of the earth surface and most of our cell’s insides as well. Coincidence? Doubtful. Water and OxygenMoreover, the liberation of oxygen from photosynthetic plants and bacteria also allowed more complex life forms to evolve using more complex energy transfers. The more complex things get in an organism as evolution has evolved, the more brain one needs to control all the circadian systems tied to the environmental signals. The more oxygen in seawater meant the more electrons would be in our seas. The more life present in the sea would mean the world’s oceans would be more green, and not blue. The colder the water meant the higher the electron density would become; this directly correlates to the amount of energy available for life forms to tap for evolutionary progress. This is why the Cambrian explosion occurred 580 million years ago. Nick Lane’s book, Oxygen, clearly lays that out brilliantly. This greatly enlarged the energy pool available to the biosphere on earth, as it evolved slowly over 3.5 billion years. These energy transfers are what living creatures are interested in it. They are not interested in macronutrient ratios or beliefs about food that modern man has today. Life uses these laws of nature 100 percent of the time. When you live outside the laws of nature, you first get ill, with a neolithic disease, and then you die of one earlier than you should have. The Magic of Water in a Magnetic FieldWater also is the perfect chemical magnetic dipole chemically, so this is why it is the major substrate on the earth to become active or passive in energy transfers with the earth’s magnetic field. When water finds itself in our native magnetic field, water becomes able to transfer more energy from the sun’s light to living things. This is why water is the liquid of life and is called liquid sunshine by quantum biologists. It is also why NASA, first looks for water than a magnetic field, when it is searching for life elsewhere in the cosmos. When water exists in an extreme low-frequency EMF field, as was normally found on earth before 1850, water’s hydrogen bonds oscillate and resonate and at 7.83 Hz or harmonics of this frequency up to 89 Hz. In actuality, the earth magnetic field alters itself seasonally from 0-30Hz due to the sun’s magnetic field. These changes in micropulsations directly act upon life by changing DNA and RNA expression. We call this epigenetics. How does this happen? The amount of oscillations from these extremely low-frequency natural EMF’s causes a favorable change in the hydrogen bonds of water to alter the bonding angles in the dipoles of water molecules to become maximumly efficient to transfer energy between the sun to our cells. Since 1950, that magnetic field has been radically altered by man. If you do not believe a man can affect our magnetosphere, read this quote by Dr. Marino testimony on EMF effects from electric transmission lines: “On November 1, 1975, barely six weeks before the testimony was filed, R.A. Helliwell and his colleagues at the Stanford Radioscience Laboratory published a paper in the Journal of Geophysical Research. They presented evidence that showed that radiation from high voltage transmission lines traveled out from the earth about 90,000 miles to a region of the earth’s atmosphere called the magnetosphere, causing changes therein. The existence, composition, and characteristics of the earth’s magnetosphere are universally recognized as important influences on life on earth. Prior to Helliwell’s work, no one had known that power lines could produce such a global impact.” Or this one: “A detailed explanation of VLF spectra shows that the strongest waves emerging from the middle magnetosphere during the storm recovery period and during isolated sub-storm activity are often emissions stimulated by radiation from the electrical power distribution system. Several different types of power line radiation effects are illustrated using broadband spectral data from stations in Antarctica and North America. It appears that man-made VLF noise has a strong influence on the energetic particle population in the magnetosphere.” It is time for you all to become aware of something modern science has totally missed. Circadian Biology Super-Geeks: This electromagnetic field effect also allows voltage-gated calcium channels to work properly in the central nervous system of every animal that has a brain on our planet. I showed you this on the last blog. Twenty-three recent studies have confirmed the pathologic role of increased intracellular Ca2+, nitric oxide, peroxynitrite, following pathologic man-made EMF exposure. When EMF is excessive, increases of ROS are leached from the mitochondrial membrane, the gut, gut bacteria and lung barriers, the blood-brain barrier all become leaky to inflammatory products. Normal physiologic ROS leak in mitochondrial are vital in optimizing ATP synthesis by stimulating mitochondrial biogenesis. When you leak more you become energy inefficient in processing electrons across your inner mitochondrial membrane via quantum tunneling. In Nick Lane’s book, Power, Sex, Suicide, this view is supported by the fact that antioxidants lower not only ROS leak but also mtDNA copy number and ATP synthesis levels. This native ROS leak in our mitochondria, in effect, signals we have a low capacity for energy production relative to the demand cells are calling for, stimulating compensatory mitochondrial biogenesis to meet the stress from the environment field. Remember, excessive man-made EMF causes a massive stress response across the brainstem, as Becker, Parker, Wertheimer, and Savitz’s experiments have shown. How does EMF minimize mitochondrial biogenesis in the brain? By forcing neuronal mitochondria to run its metabolism on glucose through cytochrome 1. We covered this in EMF 4. When this happens we get excessive mitochondrial leak over time. These things are well documented in the literature already. What people have not done yet, is connect this story to how excessive man-made EMF increases this process to further stimulate ROS production in mitochondria. Supra-physiologic EMF also lowers superoxide generation when oxidizing polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) in the mitochondria. Remember I told you in EMF 7 that PUFA’s are ingested in excess, they act as dielectric blockers inside the cell membrane? Here is the mechanism on how it works. The key factor in generating new mitochondria via biogenesis is to oxidize fat, and burn it well as a primary fuel source to offset this field effect. This is where the PPP comes in. It is the simplest metabolic pathway to get this desired effect. Regulation of the PPPGeeks: The first step of the phosphopentose pathway is the irreversible committed step. This reaction is catalyzed by glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. This step is of course allosterically regulated. The product of this reaction NADPH is a strong inhibitor. So when the cytosol concentration of NADPH is high, the enzyme’s activity is low. It is also allosterically regulated by fatty acid acyl esters of coenzyme A. The transcription of the gene for this enzyme is under hormonal regulation. These hormones come from the pituitary gland, which is anatomically located next to the median eminence, which links to the “analog circadian system” to environmental signals coded for by the water found in CSF. What ultimately controls this regulation? The EMF found in the environment of DNA at this time controls it. If the CSF surrounding this area is electron dense or not, this is what ultimately determines if the DNA/RNA of the cells making our hormones are paramagnetic or not? Whatever electrifies DNA/RNA controls its epigenetic expression. Making any connections yet, folks? Oxygen and DHA are paramagnetic for a deep reason. They are drawn to magnetic fields. What do you think mitochondria might be on a quantum level? READ THE REST OF THE STORY HERE
