PODCAST LESSONS FROM 2024: DID YOU UNDERSTAND UNCLE JACK?
Most of you did not. As I said in two podcasts with Daniel Prince and Mark Bell, an inconvenient truth will develop in front of your eyes if you look at the revenue numbers. The second highest revenue generator for banks in the U.S. is hospitals. Number 3 is drug (pharma drugs), cosmetic, and toiletry.
This is why makeup companies and sunscreen companies are lumped in with drugs. The more sun you block, the more drugs become profitable. Number 4 is the health and medical insurance industry. Number 5 is pharma wholesales. The sicker we become by DARPA light programs, the easier it is to control our behavior.
Due to control, numbers 2, 3, 4, and 5 become more profitable. The incentives dictate the outcomes in American centralized healthcare. Centralized Medicine is how you create economic slaves. This is why the DARPA MKULTRA blue light story should be huge, but nobody links things together anymore because their dopamine and melatonin levels are in the tank. Also, because of the blue light MKULTRA story, Danny Jones podcast (first one).
That is what is controlling everything at this point in America. Big Med, Big Harma, Big Insurance are fighting back. Follow the money.
WELCOME TO THE TRUTH. HOW DID DARPA HELP THE COVID ARCHITECTS?
Understanding the Warburg Metabolism and Oxygen Sensitivity
The Warburg effect refers to a metabolic shift observed in cancer cells, where they predominantly rely on glycolysis for energy production even in the presence of oxygen, rather than oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) in the mitochondria. This is often interpreted as a metabolic adaptation to support rapid cell proliferation. However, my decentralized hypothesis reframes this as a photo-bioelectric phenomenon driven by disrupted mitochondrial electrical resistance with a loss of mtDNA water production and amplification of melanin production from excessive ultraweak biophoton production rather than a simple fuel shift.
In the COVID jabs, the cancer pathway is more risky in any vaccine that uses SV40 as the promotor in its production. The second engineered risk is for any jab that uses lipid nanoparticles to surround spike proteins. Both of these modes are capable of causing a disrupted electrical resistance on the inner mitochondrial membrane to cause this process. The patients with Pfizer COVID jabs should be expected to present with stage 4 cancers via the mechanism I am presenting here.
The Warburg effect is well known in biology. It is described via a situation where a cell has elevated glucose utilization in cancer cells. It has traditionally been seen as an adaptation for energy (lactate production via glycolysis). However, recent research suggests it may reflect a broader metabolic and circadian dysregulation rather than a primary fuel source. Studies indicate that circadian disruption (e.g., from artificial light, shift work) uncouples mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, lowering NAD+ and raising NADH, leading to pseudohypoxia, ubiquitin marking, and high glucose as a compensatory response. This aligns with the idea that the Warburg metabolism signals environmental stress (e.g., light-nitrogen mismatch) rather than a cancer-specific fuel shift.
HOW DOES IT REALLY HAPPEN IN A DECENTRALIZED FRAMEWORK OF THERMODYNAMICS
I argue from first principles that the Warburg shift arises due to damage to melanopsin (from blue light or nnEMF) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), which impairs water production at cytochrome c oxidase and disrupts the proton motive force (Δψ) across the inner mitochondrial membrane. This leads to decreased electrical resistance and an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS)/reactive nitrogen species (RNS), WITH a simultaneous overproduction of ultraweak biophotons in the UV range. The resulting dehydration of melanin sheets and loss of bioelectric signaling (a DC current on the order of one trillionth of an amp) prevent regular cellular repair and apoptosis, pushing cells into an atavistic, anoxic-like state reminiscent of pre-oxygenated Earth environments.
In this context, oxygen becomes problematic for cells due to its high electronegativity on the periodic table and role as the terminal electron acceptor. Typically, oxygen facilitates efficient energy production via the electron transport chain (ECT) by reducing electrical resistance on the inner mitochondrial membrane. However, when electrical resistance drops and Δψ is compromised, oxygen’s presence exacerbates oxidative stress, further damaging mtDNA and amplifying ROS/RNS and transforming energy in ultraweak biophotons (Popp, VanWijk). This creates a vicious cycle where oxygen, instead of supporting regeneration, acts as a toxin, driving chronic disease states like cancer. The duration and intensity of the signal predict how fast the process of oncogenesis occurs in patients. This explains why people who took Pfizer jabs contaminated with SV40 and LNPs face the highest risk of turbo cancers.
Why Should We Be Treating Cancers/COVID Patients as an Oxygen Allergy?
Treating a patient with the Warburg metabolism as having an “oxygen allergy” aligns with my model because:
- Disrupted Bioelectric Regulation: The loss of electrical resistance on the inner mitochondrial membrane signals a breakdown in the bioelectric currents that regulate cellular repair and energy flow. Oxygen, by lowering resistance further due to its electronegativity, amplifies this dysregulation, mimicking an allergic or hypersensitive reaction where the body cannot tolerate a usually beneficial substance.
- Excessive Oxidative Stress: The overproduction of ROS/RNS in this state turns oxygen into a pro-oxidant rather than an antioxidant. This is analogous to an allergic response, where an environmental factor (oxygen) triggers an exaggerated and harmful reaction, leading to tissue damage and inflammation.
- Angiogenesis and Oxygen Delivery: My insight suggests that cancer cells, under this bioelectric dysfunction, stimulate angiogenesis via ultraweak biophoton release, increasing blood flow and oxygen delivery to the tumor. This paradoxical oxygen influx worsens the condition, as the mitochondria cannot utilize it effectively, reinforcing the need to limit oxygen exposure to break the progrowth cycle, similar to avoiding an allergen.
- Evolutionary Context: I propose that the Warburg shift reflects a return to an anoxic metabolic state, where cells adapted to low-oxygen environments. Treating it as an oxygen allergy acknowledges this evolutionary mismatch, suggesting that reducing oxygen availability (e.g., through hypoxia-mimicking therapies) might restore electrical resistance and halt the atavistic progression.
- Therapeutic Implications: Interventions like Vitamin C, methylene blue, or deuterium-depleted water (DDW) would work by modulating electrical resistance and mitochondrial function, potentially reducing oxygen’s toxic effects. This supports a strategy of minimizing oxygen’s role until the bioelectric and regenerative signals are restored, akin to desensitization in allergy management. This also explains why people who were treated in hospitals had high death rates. They were all given supplemental oxygen and/or ventilated. This was precisely the wrong thing to do. Why? Doing it pushed the failing colony of mitochondria with a loss of electrical resistance to ARDS. This was what I saw in ICUs and why so many people hold the belief that centralized healthcare was a killing machine for COVID-19 patients.
Connecting to A Broader Decentralized Thesis
My decentralized medicine thesis emphasizes natural light cycles (e.g., UV-A and IR-A for regeneration via melanin and POMC) and challenges centralized metabolic dogma with quantum-physical principles. The “oxygen allergy” treatment rationale fits this by prioritizing bioelectric and environmental factors (light, electromagnetic fields) over biochemical fuel shifts. It suggests that restoring mitochondrial water production, melanin hydration, and electrical resistance via natural light exposure and avoiding blue light would reverse the Warburg effect and prevent chronic diseases like cancer. It also opens the door to drug treatments that increase electrical resistance in these patients. This would include vitamin C, methylene blue, Ivermectin, and Fen/ben combos. All these drugs increase electrical resistance on the inner mitochondrial membrane, which is why they work. Water also helps because it is Nature’s Faraday cage for EMFs. This fundamental insight is lost in centralized healthcare.
WHY IS DEUTERIUM DEPLETED WATER USEFUL IN CANCER?
If you understand what I have laid out here, cancer is photo-bioelectrical electrocution of the inside of a cell. Why? Dehydrated melanin causes massive amplification of the DC electric current a cell makes. Remember what Nick Lane told us in his book Power, Sex, and Suicide? A healthy inner mitochondrial membrane contains 30 million volts of electric charge. This charge would typically be devastating to a cell. When I read this fact long ago, it raised a big question: How does a cell dampen the electrical charge?
Pure water containing no ions is an excellent insulator of electric charge. This is why Nature created the DDW, which was made by mtDNA at cytochrome C oxidase. What was the stimulus for her to gain this wisdom? It was the wound of the Great Oxidation event. The toxic wound Nature sustained from the creation and eventual dominance of oxygen on Earth was a stimulus that drove massive electrocution and endosymbiotic growth or the merger of the FIRST two domains of life on Earth 650 million years ago. Nature would never have innovated mitochondria without this photo-bioelectrocution caused by oxygen.
Pure water is non-deuterated water. But not even “deionized” water is completely free of ions. Water undergoes auto-ionization at any temperature above absolute zero. Further, because water is such an excellent solvent, it almost always has some solute dissolved in it, most frequently a salt. This increases its electrical conductivity. This explains why all systems in the body except the matrix have saltwater in them. It also points out something else.
nnEMF dehydrates us, leaving more NaCl in less water and increasing electrical conductivity. When you consider how melanin responds electrically to dehydration, you should begin to see why this is a double whammy for a cell or organism. This is why nnEMF causes so many diseases. When you understand the wiring diagram basics, you will realize that we are effectively self-electrocuting ourselves on a chronic basis when there is a loss of electrical resistance in our membranes. This is what causes pro-growth programs in cells. This same set of circumstances caused endosymbiosis. Oxygen drove the growth and fusion between bacteria and Archea to make a mitochondrion. That was the original cancer on Earth. Shocking truth bomb, huh?
WHY CAN I SAY THIS? The basics of electrical resistance is a physics story.
Suppose water has even a tiny amount of such an impurity. In that case, it can conduct electricity readily, as impurities such as salt separate into free ions in aqueous solution by which an electric current can flow.
It is known that the theoretical maximum electrical resistivity for water is approximately 182 kΩ·m²/m (or 18.2 MΩ·cm²/cm) at 25 °C. This figure agrees well with what is typically seen on reverse osmosis, ultrafiltered, and deionized ultrapure water systems used, for instance, in semiconductor manufacturing plants.
A salt or acid contaminant level exceeding even 100 parts per trillion (ppt) in ultrapure water begins to lower its resistivity level noticeably by up to several kilohm-square meters per meter (a change of several hundred nanosiemans per meter of conductance).
NICK LANE’S 30 MILLION CURRENT
Pure water has a low electrical conductivity, so Nature chose this water format to be adjacent to the inner mitochondrial membrane post endosymbiosis to prevent further self-electrocution. As a result, this increases significantly upon solvation of a small amount of ionic material water such as sodium chloride. Thus, the risks of electrocution are much more significant in water with the usual impurities not found in pure water. This is why people on heart transplant lists do better when they are given hypertonic saline solutions. In cardiac care units, we induce electrocutations when we use a defibrillator to restart a failing electrical organ called a HEART.
Recall that in centralized medicine, when people have a cardiac arrest, we use defibrillators to jump-start their hearts with an electrical charge because the mtDNA cannot create it. We can improve this situation by using a hypertonic salt solution before the defibrillator. This should be a change made to all ACLS and ATLS protocols. Hypertonic saline is also a key player in decentralized medicine treatment plans. Neurosurgeons are the one group of centralized MDs who learn how to use hypertonic saline in neurosurgical emergencies.
WHY YOUR WOUNDS CREATE YOUR WISDOM: ALL-NIGHT SURGERY LESSONS
This is why I quickly figured out biophysics once I allowed the wounds of my patients to teach me new lessons. Remember that little girl I told you about in the Danny Jones podcast, whom I did a 24-hour surgery with Metallica blasting all night? I told the world it was the most critical case I had ever handled in my career. Why has no one ever asked me why I said that in any podcast or Q&A? PODCAST LINK
It was that case that taught me why methylene blue and hypertonic saline were tools I could use to save her life. Few centralized MDs understand biophysics. That night, I began using mannitol on that little 16-year-old girl, and I noticed something unusual. Every time anesthesia dosed her with it, it dropped her blood pressure dramatically. I realized I was inducing acute heart failure because she was in neurogenic and cardiac shock at the same time. This is when i began to scream at my neurosurgery staff and told him to get out of my way and I am going to try something new. I realized I had to jump-start her heart and limit her brain swelling to get more time to remove the bone from her brain. So, I immediately stopped the mannitol and gave her hypertonic saline to defibrillate her heart using basic biophysics. NaCl increases electrical currents, so I could jump her heart, giving me more time to save her life.
Anesthesia told me that once I did this, her BP stabilized, and her ECG improved. As I continued to work, Metallica’s song Nothing Else Matters came on in the background. The lyrics hit me just at the right time. Now, go listen to the lyrics sometime.
I realized that after switching her IVs to hypertonic saline to save her failing heart due to the massive intracranial injury, I had to simultaneously add a methylene blue drip to run in slow to increase the electrical resistance in her brain’s demolished mitochondria to give me more time to work in her brain. This was akin to using biophysics to jump her heart while her brain was damaged.
These two seemingly incongruent things should NOT be done simultaneously, but I knew it was my only chance to save her.
I knew this was not what I was taught, but I had the strangest feeling then. I had to do it because it was the right thing to do in my mind. That is what stimulated the massive fight between my neurosurgeon staff and me. That is when I told everyone in the room that they should leave right then if they did not like or agree with what I was doing. Only the staff neurosurgeon left the OR that night. If you listened to the Danny Jones podcast, you know the rest of the story now. That is why these tools are dangerous in the wrong hands.
What did Metallica whisper to me that night in the operating room?
So close, no matter how far
It couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
To this day, I get tears in my eyes when that song is played around me.
Wounds create our wisdoms and that is why we must embrace the pain and suck that life deals. A wound is never a mistake if it teaches you a lesson you learn from. Then, it becomes tuition. I said that in 1998, at the Morbidity and Mortality conference, they reviewed this case. Not only didn’t i get canned, my neurosurgery staff all came up to and told me what I did that night was crazy wise. All except one guy. The centralized neurosurgeon whom I threw out of the room was a career military man who had contracts with DARPA working on primates.
That is why this podcast is a key listen for any Savage.

The Next Step?
While my model is intriguing and integrates diverse data, it relies on a bioelectric paradigm that departs from mainstream centralized mitochondrial and cancer biology. To the centralized players, my concept of oxygen as an “allergy” will be considered metaphorical. My perspective is quite different. It is AXIOMATIC. As such, when I returned to ICU medicine as a trauma neurosurgeon, I found these ideas very useful for framing therapeutic strategies for hospitalists and nurses (e.g., hypoxia therapy, redox modulation) who cared for these patients.
My decentralized interpretation of the Warburg effect is a marker of circadian mismatch, not a fuel source. Moreover, it is well supported by recent findings in the literature. The old idea that fuel source is critical is now on life support. The next blog will blow that out of the water.
As I’ve described, artificial light at night disrupts NAD+/NADH balance, increases ubiquitin, and drives glucose spikes to brake ubiquitin marking. AM UV and natural light cycles restore NAD+, lower ubiquitin, and normalize metabolism, reducing cancer, obesity, and autoimmunity, as Ive emphasized with plants and animals sharing this response in the ubiquitin series on my website.
LITERATURE SUPPORT
Recent Research on the Re-Interpretation of the Warburg Metabolism As a Circadian Shift
- Circadian and Metabolic Perspectives in the Role Played by NADPH in Cancer
- This source discusses the Warburg effect as metabolic reprogramming in cancer cells driven by NADPH availability and touches on its connection to circadian rhythms. It notes that the Warburg effect is linked to circadian disruption. It provides a direct context for NAD(P)H imbalances in cancer, aligning with the decentralized reinterpretation of the Warburg effect as a signal of metabolic and circadian dysregulation rather than a fuel source.
- Associations among Metabolism, Circadian Rhythm, and Age-Associated Diseases
- Some sources have explored the connection between the Warburg effect, tumorigenesis, and circadian rhythm disruptions, particularly in age-associated diseases like cancer, obesity, and diabetes. They hypothesize that circadian misalignment (e.g., from artificial light) activates the Warburg effect as a cell-autonomous transformation, supporting the view that it reflects an environmental circadian mismatch rather than a metabolic adaptation for energy.
- Cancer metabolism in space and time: Beyond the Warburg effect
- Space medicine sources have delved into cancer metabolism’s spatial and temporal aspects, suggesting that the Warburg effect may involve broader metabolic and environmental factors beyond simple glycolysis. It provides a foundation for reinterpreting the Warburg effect as circadian and light-related factors influence it. It is consistent with my argument about artificial light’s role in uncoupling light-nitrogen cycles in the mitochondria.
- Oncogenic fatty acid oxidation senses circadian disruption in sleep-deficiency-enhanced tumorigenesis.
- This study links circadian disruption (e.g., sleep deficiency) to fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and the Warburg effect in cancer. It shows how clock gene dysregulation (e.g., CLOCK, BMAL1) and NAD+ levels drive tumorigenesis. It supports my hypothesis that the Warburg effect signals circadian mismatch from artificial light, with NAD+/NADH imbalances and ubiquitin marking playing key roles.
- Exposure to artificial light at night: A common link for obesity and cancer?
- This source highlights how artificial light at night (ALAN) disrupts circadian rhythms, increasing risks of obesity, diabetes, and cancer through mechanisms like melatonin suppression, NAD+ decline, and metabolic reprogramming. It aligns with my interpretation of the Warburg effect as a response to circadian misalignment from artificial light, connecting it to ubiquitin, NAD+/NADH, and disease.
- Artificial Light at Night and Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
- This review consolidates studies from 2000–2024 on ALAN’s association with type 2 diabetes, obesity, and cancer, emphasizing circadian disruption, NAD+ decline, and glucose metabolism changes. It supports the decentralized view that the Warburg effect and related metabolic disorders stem from artificial light-induced circadian mismatch, not just metabolic adaptation.
DECENTRALIZED MEDICINE HAS ANSWERS FOR THE DARPA-INDUCED CANCER WAVE
- My insights reveal that shorter wavelengths (e.g., blue light at night) increase cancer risk by uncoupling light-nitrogen cycles inside mitochondria, lowering NAD+ and pseudohypoxia and raising ubiquitin. At the same time, AM sunlight provides massive red light exposure without UV (290–420 nm), which promotes water production for a latitude-determined duration. This improves mtDNA hydration before we stimulate the regenerative stimulus. Hydration endogenously becomes a Faraday cage for the destroyed inner mitochondrial membrane that has lost its electrical resistance.
-
As the day progresses, sunlight adds other light frequencies that promote diurnal regeneration, oxygen delivery, and health via melanin, POMC, and porphyrins. The Warburg metabolism is an epigenetic post-translational signal from mitochondria that light mismatches, not a fuel shift, cause the condition. This implies that the surface photo-electrochemistry of the eye, skin, and gut can outpace the biochemistry inside the cell in order of critical importance.
- When someone exhibits the Warburg metabolism, the patient must be treated like they have an oxygen allergy. Why?
- Adding oxygen to a mitochondrial decreases electrical resistance, altering the regenerative currents stimulated by mtDNA and melanin. A red light stimulates water production, while ultraweak biophotons stimulate POMC translation to create endogenous melanin.
- This review consolidates studies from 2000–2024 on ALAN’s association with type 2 diabetes, obesity, and cancer, emphasizing circadian disruption, NAD+ decline, and glucose metabolism changes. It supports the decentralized view that the Warburg effect and related metabolic disorders stem from artificial light-induced circadian mismatch, not just metabolic adaptation.
- The mtDNA water production engulfs melanin to RAISE electrical resistance to make a DC electric current that is one trillionth of one amp. This current is used to renovate and regenerate mammalian tissues. If this signal is awry and the electrical resistance drops, this creates lowered NAD+, massive upregulation of ROS/RNS, and massive overproduction of ultraweak biophotons in the UV range. As a result, too little mitochondrial water production is made.
- At the same time, too many ultraweak biophotons are made, creating a situation where melanin sheets created are chronically dehydrated in the cell, and there is persistent chronic ROS/RNS and no generation of the bioelectric signal that the cell needs to self-repair itself. This situation leaves the cell with a massive epigenetic upregulation of endogenous melanin, which becomes highly conductive in the cell, ruins the surrounding regions, and affects the local production of melatonin by mitochondria, making up 95% of melatonin in humans. It is not a pineal story. That is functional medicine nonsense.
- The loss of the cell’s melatonin production will not allow apoptosis to eliminate the poorly functioning cell. When these bioelectric changes occur, the cell reacts atavistically to return to an older evolutionary format when cells were in anoxic environments before the great oxidation event. As a result, the body responds by lowering oxygen delivery to the defective mitochondria because oxygen is the terminal electron acceptor.
- Due to its high electrionegativity on the periodic table, it reduces electrical resistance. During a Warburg shift, the cell needs a raised electrical resistance to stop the process. Organisms with melanopsin damage must vary resistance to bioelectrical flows to survive. Resistance in cells directs energy flow and computes information, which drives biochemical pathway decision-making.
-
- When melanopsin damage occurs from blue light or nnEMF, the cells use glucose, alanine, and glutamine. These choices were the best choices when the Earth was anoxic. The Warburg shift is needed in a cancer state to stop the progrowth epigenetic program that has started due to melanopsin damage and mtDNA mutation, stopping water production at cytochrome c oxidase. Loss of oxygen increases electrical resistance on the inner mitochondrial membrane. Once melanopsin damage occurs in any tissue, water production slows down at cytochrome c oxidase, and oxygen use diminishes because of the destruction of delta psi on the inner mitochondrial membrane.
- Picard and Levin recently wrote an article in which they made my decentralized case for me when they said, “Organisms adapt and optimize fitness by achieving lasting changes in energy resistance.”
- This explains why Vitamin C, methylene blue, and DDW all operate to help prevent a turbo cancer. They act to limit the stay currents coming from the inner mitochondrial membrane from the damage of SV40 and LNP-spike proteins destroying it. The Resistance to energy flow (éR) triggers signaling outputs whose information content activates (epi)genetic regulatory pathways, which open communication between mtDNA and the nDNA to produce enduring cellular, physiological, anatomical, and behavioral changes. DDW also protects your cells and organs from this self electrocution that leads to turbocancers.
- These changes feedback to minimize and optimize éR over the long term, enhancing the system’s efficiency, environmental fitness, and health for the environment sensed by mitochondria. Cancer is not a metabolic disorder. It is a Photo-bioelectric disease that can be amplified by DARPA bioweapons. Turbocancer happens because the duration and intensity of the jabs predict it. After all, bioelectrical activity demolishes the resistance to energy flow (éR) rapidly.
- You must start at the magneto-heliosphere for a decentralized medical lesson on mtDNA diseases like cancer. Learn the actual ticket that moves the needle of all humans. You must learn that when your Inner mitochondrial membrane has no electrical resistance, this signals a poor redox charge (delta psi) on the inner mitochondrial membrane. This is when oxygen becomes a toxin for most chronic diseases. Your centralized shills will never get you to this level of understanding.
- Cancers grow because blood flow amplifies to these regions due to the excessive release of ultraweak biophotons. This action stimulates angiogenesis, bringing more oxygen, not less oxygen, to the cancer. Since oxygen has a high electronegativity, it draws current across the damaged landscape of the inner mitochondrial membrane, and this causes massive amplification of ROS and RNS. This causes the progrowth situation to persist and exist. The goal is to limit the spread of that current by any means necessary.
- People forget that oxygen’s toxic nature drove endosymbiosis on Earth 650 million years ago. Otherwise, Nature would have never innovated mitochondria. Oxygen’s paramagnetism keeps us alive in an oxygenated atmosphere, but it becomes deadly in one where there is a loss of electrical resistance on the inner mitochondrial membrane.
- These are the critical missing pieces of information in producing all chronic disease epidemics. This also explains why turbocancers are now present at record rates in the jabbed. Become the disruptor, or be disrupted by DARPA centralized medicine machine. They are tapering the Ponzi scheme and it should be no mystery to anyone here how they are doing it.
- Artificial light damages melanopsin, which is associated with dehydration. This exacerbates the bioelectric signals, explaining modern disease epidemics. This aligns with my decentralized medicine thesis, reinforcing the need for natural light cycles and challenging biological dogma with quantum-physical wisdom. MAHA = HAHA
- SUMMARY
In summary, a patient with the Warburg metabolism should be treated like they have an oxygen allergy because the loss of mitochondrial electrical resistance turns oxygen into a toxic agent that amplifies oxidative stress, disrupts regeneration, and drives pro-growth signals. Restoring bioelectric balance and resistance is a mandatory clinical need and is key to managing the trubocancer state.
