Energy is a physical concept but is not really explained well in biology. In physics, it is well explained by Noether’s theorem. That equation says that any symmetry, either local or global, implies there must be a conservation of some physical quality in reference to energy transformation to keep the system functioning.
Mammals break time symmetry by conserving POMC biology. Most people have no idea that just about everything I post falls directly in line with Noether’s idea in biology. Until you understand it clearly, you will keep making mistakes in judgments on how you live and in your health.
This is exactly what mammals do with melanin and Wide Band Gapped semiconductors within their cells. It is the focus of my current Patreon series. Time symmetry (circadian biology) can be broken, but to do it chronically, and still maintain your health, you have to conserve one thing to keep the system from falling apart = The one thing mammals conserve to satisfy Noether’s axiom is their melanin content. The KT event imprinted Noether’s theorem in every mammal cell on this planet to reserve time for this subfamily of living creatures.
What did her theorem tell us? Noether taught us that with respect to energy and momentum in the universe, energy “informs” space and time how to curve. This solves many problems in physics but has yet to have the same in biology because most biologist still has no idea how life is controlled by non-linear optical arrangements of semiconductive proteins inside cells. How did this woman give Einstein’s theories a major boost after his miracle year?
HOW DOES EMMY NOETHER THEOREM TOUCH BIOLOGY? LET’S US CANCER AS AN EXAMPLE
Most people have the centralized perception that cancer shortens our time on Earth but in the June 2016 webinar, I uncovered principles that cancer may be an old solution that nature was looking for again when we lost a key feature in cells, to allow us to operate well in our new modern world. This is regressive atavism making a reappearance in the series.
The decentralized perspective inserts POMC biology and a lack of UV light as the missing link in most cancerous tissues and this disease really develops this idea fully. Either way, no matter your perspective we are talking about “time” when it comes to cancer.
In fact, the higher the grade of the tumor the less time you have to live. This is the current belief of most patients and of allopathic centralized medicine. Becker’s work actually refutes this idea.
Have you ever thought about why time and energy are linked fundamentally and really explain cancer well?
Amalie Emmy Noether was born on 23rd March 1882 in a world in which women were not always appreciated for their intellect. In the German city in which her family lived, the local university—the University of Erlangen entirely prohibited women from being accepted as students. Despite this, Noether managed to gain special permission to sit in on lectures. This exception presumably had something to do with her father, who was a professor of mathematics at the school. Seven years later, she became the first woman to earn a doctorate degree from the university.
In 1915, David Hilbert and Felix Klein invited her to work at the University of Göttingen, a world-renowned mathematical institute, to help solve a key problem in the field of general relativity (Einstein), which treats gravity as a bending of space caused by mass and energy.
The theory seemed to have serious cancer at its core: Energy caused the bending of space, but gravity itself was energy. Thus, it would seem that the energy of bending space made yet more energy. Presumably, this would bend space more, resulting in more energy. It seemed like the theory could cascade in this manner to the point that energy would grow forever. And because this didn’t happen in reality, there needed to be a solution to the problem. Emmy’s solution, which has come to be called Noether’s theorem, was worked out in the same year she arrived and had far-ranging implications in physics.
Her theorem has yet to hit biology because biology still doesn’t realize that all biochemistry is quantized by light via non-linear optics in cells. Light tells cells how space-time how to bends inside our cells at the electronic level in us too. It turns out MELANIN is key to this information transfer. Melanin is a 100% story tied to Noether’s theorem.
HOW?
Noether’s theorem defines how time stamping in cells remains accurate. This ensures the accuracy and periodicity of the circadian mechanism in cells. All mammals have to do is keep their skin in the game where melanin is located in ALL mammals.
Energy is a physical concept but is not really explained well in biology. In physics, it is well explained by Noether’s theorem. That equation says that any symmetry, either local or global, implies there must be a conservation of some physical quality in reference to energy transformation. Modern cancers in mammals reflect a disease state of a lack of energy and time. Might cancer just be a maladaptive state to the light we live under when we look at Norther’s theorem as it relates to POMC biology? I think so. So for the concept of time, what is really conserved in cells so they become able to avoid cancerous transitions in their organs?
KEY BLOG MOMENT: It turns out, the answer is that light energy their surfaces sense itself, must be conserved at the electronic state in cells for time to manifest in living things. When UV light is conserved in biology melanin and mitochondrial biology become optimized to maximize energy conservation at the electronic level of our cells. Energy can only be conserved if the information quanta in sunlight are brought to mitochondria to help maximize autophagy and apoptosis.
Cancer is not really the disease it appears to be. It is a maladapted state that mammals took advantage of 65 million years ago. Today, mammals are being redacted from it because they chronically live under the light that is devoid of UV light exposure. Cancer is a state where space-time is deformed in a cell because UV light is missing at the electronic level of cell organization. This is why cells move in our body even today. They are looking for a source of UV light. Without movement, we call metastatsis occurs. This movement has a negative connotation in centralized medicine today but in mammals, but it really is not a defect in us. In fact, mammalian metastasis is one of our superpowers. Without diapedesis our immune system would fail. Without it, neural migration of melanin fails. Without it, embryological construction of the mammalian body plan fails. This is one of the most counterintuitive consequences of Noether’s Theorem.
As a decentralized physician, your job is to ask a lot of questions about light abuse in every cancer patient you see to get to the root cause of where their mitochondrial and melanin biology went awry. POMC loss begins where the primary cancer began. Once you find the primary cancerous lesion you can guess where the melanin loss is if you are good at remembering where that tissue came from on an embryological basis.
Is your life lived the same way every day as we go around the sun? Will you do it this way for 75-85 years and just call it a life? If you know I am speaking to you, pay deep attention to this blog. I want you to make one small change today. I want you to stop settling for easy and begin to embrace living your days with an edgy rawness that must be found in SUNRISE.
RAW: When you wirelessly connect to others from here on out do it in a raw primal fashion. Make them feel “your rawness”. Never let them feel totally comfortable around you again. Let them know you have depths they have not been invited to. Make them want to visit these levels. Become like the masterpiece in DaVinci’s collections he never finished. Become like a painting in his studio that wasn’t dry yet because of the heat in the room. Push people to their edge with your heat. One hard nudge from you and you become able to smear paint all over their painted facades. You’ll begin to change your life and you’ll certainly change everything about them without their consent.
Nature is the way of seeing the truth. Only Nature penetrates human habit, pride, passion, and intelligence to reveal wisdom. Nature erects a boundary around us that tethers us to her. Sunrise and sunset are two such boundaries. If we stray too far from the laws in either, we pay a deep toll. The relationship between what we see and what we know is never settled. Each morning we see the sunrise you are beginning the needed melanin renovation to keep you alive and away from diseases like cancer.
We know that the earth is turning toward the sun to create the picture we see. Yet the knowledge, the explanation, never quite fits the vision we experience and we never really understand how it renews us. That is due to a lack of awareness/dopamine that creates our need for transformation. This demand is built in by seasonal light changes. The demand is not great at the equator but rises to extremes at higher latitudes. This is why life is sparse above 60 latitudes.
Transformational change is a state of bold total annihilation or what we were to something we envision ourselves to be. It can not simply be a better version of the business-as-usual approach. Transformational learning is a shift in our context of reality and our point of view about ourselves.
The next slide blows the entire centralized paradigm of science up. You are not defined by your nuclear genome. You are defined by your ability to adapt to your environment. The light in that environment is the key source of energy and this is why MELANIN is the most critical semiconductor in your body. Without it, your circadian mechanism cannot operate. This explains why circadian gene regulation occurs at a post transcriptional level in mammals. If Darwin was right it would happen at a PRE transcriptional level, but it does not.
SUMMARY
Melatonin and melanin are biogenic amines linked to sunlight’s local effect on cells. POMC was created to observe these local effects in cells on the central energy pathway in mammals, namely the leptin-melanocortin pathway. Let us expand this idea to the laws of physics to see how biology follows those rules. Melatonin recycling changes local symmetry in tissues, therefore it affects the space/time dimension possible in tissues and the timing mechanisms in cells. Symmetry is often thought of globally, but it turns out Einstein’s general relativity, put local symmetry front and center in physics in 1905.
It appears melatonin and melanin control the local symmetry of light collection for cells too. It is a proxy for how effectively we collect light locally within cells and this is shared with the entire organism via leptin biology. This explains why leptin has an absorption spectra of 220nm. This wavelength is below terrestrial sunlight so the brain can be informed about the state of VUV creation from melanin sheets inside of our tissues.
Einstein’s idea was unorthodox in physics in 1905, so my ideas in this series may seem queer at first until you see its beautiful simplicity in design. Moreover, that simplicity appears over and over again in how the melanin/melatonin/POMC cycle uses Einstein’s ideas locally in cells to maintain our longevity. These things are both related to how light can flow in cells and tissues locally.
Only UV light is capable of non-linear optical effects, so it makes a lot of sense why cells are built around this part of the spectrum of visible light. Look at the SECOND picture above in this blog and carefully re-examine it now that you have read what Noether’s Theorem means to mammals.
I said this in Reality #11, “most modern technology works electronically by making electrons do the things we want them to do on semiconductors. All electronic semiconductor circuits work on the basic idea that any given electron can influence the control of other electrons and holes adjacent to those electrons. What programs electrons in cells? UV light does.
Physics since Einstein and Noether has taught us that energy and momentum in light energy tell space and time how to curve. As light falls to us it gains energy and momentum, so in this way, on a relative basis UV light photons have a weight or inertia associated with it. That weight and inertia affect our surfaces where POMC is located to record that measurement to make things like melanin, Vitamin D3, and matrix water as a biochemical signal of the photons at the electronic state in cells.
Gravitational lensing is tied to energy flows by weight and momentum changes in light. UV light offers massive changes in momentum because it has the smallest and most powerful energy in the terrestrial spectrum of solar light.
Neother’s theorem is also found in the story of grey hair. Why? Grey hair is a story of melanin and circadian biology gone awry.
This story hyperlinked here shows the IRF4 gene to gray hair by interfering with the production of melanin.
What did centralized science forget in this story above? Local control of symmetry in the melatonin cycles: the development of grey hair and melanoma are linked by melanosomes and melatonin cycles locally in cells. One thing the study in 2016 did get right is this: The mammalian story of melanin and POMC clearly shows we are NOT at the mercy of our genes.
That idea is the belief of centralized science today. I reject it as a decentralized physician now. The current study on mammalian hair genes found that environmental factors controlled about 70% of cases of hair graying. Isn’t that being explained in this series and really in those blogs now? To the centralized mindset, genes appear responsible for about 30%, at least in the Latin American cohort. Might that be a facade because Latin America is inside the tropics where UV light is very stable from season to season? I think so.
They said, “The study confirms that (going gray) is at least a mix of genes and environment”
I chuckled when I read it.
The genes in both diseases are not important in this process. The light environment that turns it on and off is what is important. Light is critical in that environmental switch on or off. Losing the local symmetry of melanin/melatonin cycles from poor environmental light signals is the key to why IRF4 turns hair grey and what causes melanoma and all cancers in mammals. Melatonin inhibits Electron Chain Transport to allow cells to recapture apoptotic efficiency to avoid cancer. This is the decentralized position on what really causes cancers.
Conservation of energy is a law of physics, and Noether’s theorem says that the laws of physics come from symmetry. Specifically, Noether’s theorem says that every symmetry implies a conservation law. Mammals must conserve melanin to remain at a dissipative state at their electronic level. Noether’s theorem clearly lays out why centralized science is a joke. She deserved a Nobel for her work, but the centralized machine does value women like Ms. Noether.
The neural retina is considered to be an extension of the central nervous system and has several features in common with the brain. The neural retina is similarly sensitive to degenerative processes, in which the closely adjacent retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) which contains melanin plays a key role in normal and abnormal physiology. There are various forms of degenerative processes, including one of the leading causes of visual impairment, age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The molecular mechanisms of AMD are continuously being elucidated, with a focus on oxidative stress due to the lack of melanin in tissues. Natural melanin is known to protect the skin from ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. This is in large part attributed to its surface quinone residues that can efficiently scavenge all free radicals. Mitochondrial oxidative stress is believed to be a contributing factor in the etiology of numerous neuronal disorders. However, the precise mechanism(s) by which mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) modify cellular targets to induce the death of neurons remains unknown.
Melanin is known to be the highest-quality scavenger of ROS and RNS in humans. Melanin is also paramagnetic and this makes it sensitive to the magnetic fields created by the spinning F0 head of the ATPase.
When we lose RPE tissue from donors with Acute Macular Degeneration we find that they all exhibit REDUCED mitochondrial redox power and glycolytic function compared with healthy donors. Recall that mitochondria make the majority of melatonin used to regenerate photoreceptors. Dopamine is the other chemical used in photoreceptor regeneration. It can be made directly from melanin. (See pic below) One should look at the top row in the slide below and realize that the eye is to the left of the aromatic amino acids and the brain side of the flow chart to the right side. Dopamine can be made directly from DOPA or melanin in the retina/brain when hypoxia is present. The topline of this slide below can go from left to right with higher oxygen tensions (UV light present) and from right to left when pseudohypoxia (low NAD+/high lactate/ low thiamine or pyruvate) is present in the mitochondria of the tissue in question.
The mitochondria are a major source of ROS where an estimated 0.4–1% of total oxygen consumed in this vital organelle is reduced to O2 . − (superoxide radical)
From a pool of RPEs from AMD donors, their tissues were found to be MORE resistant to oxidative inactivation of the (TCA/glycolysis) two energy-producing pathways and were less susceptible to oxidation-induced cell death compared with cells from healthy donors. Investigation of the potential mechanism responsible for differences in bioenergetics and resistance to oxidative stress showed RPE from AMD donors had increased PGC1α protein expression as well as differential expression of multiple genes in response to an oxidative challenge.
These findings seem like a paradox to most of the beliefs flying around neurodegeneration and retinal pathology. It raises the question what is oxidative inactivation?
In eukaryotes, two isozymes of aconitase exist; one localized to the matrix of the mitochondria and the other in the cytosol (also known as iron regulatory protein 1). M-aconitase catalyzes the reversible isomerization of citrate and isocitrate via its intermediate form, cis-aconitate, in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. Because of m-aconitase’s unique [4Fe-4S]2+cluster which contains a labile iron atom, and its proximity to mitochondrially generated ROS, it is an ideal candidate for oxidative inactivation. Indeed several neurodegenerative diseases in which oxidative stress has been implicated, as well as in vivo and in vitro models of these disorders collectively demonstrate decreased aconitase activity
Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) is fully loaded with melanin and located under photoreceptors’ outer segments and plays an important role in the maintenance of photoreceptors by completing the visual cycle and phagocytosis of shed photoreceptor outer segments. Lipofuscin is a NATURAL byproduct of the visual cycle, and it is currently believed to be a nondegradable compound that accumulates in the RPE cells and eventually damages the RPE cells and inevitably causes photoreceptor degeneration. Vitamin A has an absorption spectrum of 328 nm. This is UVB light. Vitamin A is the only Vitamin known to emit light. The emission of light is called fluorescence when absorbed light of a short wavelength and emitting light has a longer wavelength.
Lipofuscin is the major cause of fundus fluorescence that can be detected by Fundus Autofluorescent (FAF) imaging systems.
The neural retina is the light-sensitive tissue of the eye. It consists of several layers of neurons interconnected by synapses. The primary light-sensing cells in the retina are photoreceptor cells, rods, and cones. The RPE is the pigmented single-cell layer located right behind the retina, firmly attached to the underlying choroid and in close contact with photoreceptor cells. The RPE (below) has several crucial functions for vision, namely, scattered light absorption, epithelial transport, spatial ion buffering, visual cycle, phagocytosis of outer segment photoreceptor membranes, secretion, and immune modulation.

With exposure to light, during rhodopsin photolysis, toxic retinoid side products (Vitamin A) can be produced in photoreceptor cells. Biogenesis of these products occurs when two molecules of all-trans-retinal condense with one molecule of phosphatidylethanolamine in the photoreceptor membrane.
Evolution has developed a powerful mechanism that prevents the accumulation of retinoid side products in terminally differentiated photoreceptor cells. Throughout life, the debris of the photoreceptor outer segment (POS) apical part is phagocytized and digested by RPE cells (above), while new photoreceptor discs with rhodopsin molecules are synthesized by the photoreceptor inner segments. However, the lysosomal enzyme system of the RPE cell is not effective in the degrading of POS debris, because the latter is supposed to contain modified retinoid side products of rhodopsin photolysis, as well as modified lipids and proteins.
In other words, the lysosomal enzyme system of the RPE cell cannot recognize such modified molecules and does not digest them. As a consequence, lipofuscin granules (LGs), containing retinoid derivatives, are formed and accumulated in RPE cells with age. They have been long believed to be just a cell metabolism by-product. However, it has been established that LGs are one of the sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in RPE cells. This explains why melanin is the most prominent protein in the RPE because it handles the ROS/RNS from the LGs with ease. If melanin is not present or degraded then lipofuscin becomes a problem. Visible light exposure induces ROS formation in LGs, initiating oxidative stress in RPE cells. Oxidative stress is believed to be central to the development of AMD. The quantum biologic reality is quite different. If melanin is not present then and only then is ROS/RNS/ and lipofuscin a problem because it also consumes surrounding DHA that is needed in the repair process.Its absence is characterized by an increased level of ROS resulting in damage or modification of cellular proteins, lipids, and DNA, impairing their physiological functions. Therefore, the development of AMD is associated with the progressive accumulation of lipofuscin.
Lipofuscin is a pigmented, heterogenous byproduct of failed intracellular catabolism conventionally found within lysosomes or the cytosol of aging post-mitotic cells. Numerous studies indicate that the formation of lipofuscin is due to the oxidative alteration of macromolecules by oxygen-derived free radicals generated in reactions catalyzed by redox-active iron of low molecular weight. This protein usually is found in places where POMC is not turned on by endogenous UV light stimulus and or where melanin is absent and is supposed to be. Melanin is an excellent absorber of free radicals to limit oxidative damage. This changes the optics inside the cells. Melanin is the semiconductive protein that is designed to chelate the iron complexes to clear them. When melanin is degraded or absent this cannot occur.
The nature and structure of lipofuscin complexes seem to vary among tissues and show temporal heterogeneity in the composition of oxidized proteins (30–70%), lipids (20–50%), metals cations (Fe3+, Fe2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Al3+, Mn2+, Ca2+) (2%), and sugar residues (Benavides et al., 2002; Double et al., 2008).
Looking at the retina is the best way to predict the topographic risk of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis. Below you can see the lipid deposition in the macula in AMD. This lipid deposition mimics what we see in atherosclerotic plaque formations when there is melanopsin damage, lack of melanin, and/or a lack of ferroelectric currents on the endothelium. In the eye, a lack of the ferroelectric current can occur at multiple locations to cause various diseases associated with lipid accumulation.
High lipofuscin levels in the RPE have been associated with retinal degeneration and blindness in Stargardt disease patients and animal models. Currently, centralized science believes there is no treatment to prevent and/or revert lipofuscin-driven retinal degenerative changes in humans. This slide and paper below show that with the blue light hazard injury or nnEMF damage to brain tissue LED light can really make a difference.
That belief is present because none of them realize a combination of UVA-IR-A light can stimulate POMC to create melanin to clear the iron complexes that are common in this disease.A lack of ATP is a big factor in this disease.
Most modern ophthalmologists are fully unaware that IR-A light can create ATP even when the cellular damage is overwhelming. I found this out in my clinic three years ago with some patients with AMD and bone injuries. I did not know about this issue until that time because I do not treat AMD.
There is also a belief in ophthalmology that there is no way to recover melanin creation in the RPE once humans are born. The use of high intensity IR-A light needs to be considered. This belief also needs to be revisited because it is clear that there is neuroplasticity present in the layers of the human eye that contain melanin & DHA in concert.
Stargardt disease is usually caused by changes in a gene called ABCA4. This gene affects how your body uses vitamin A. Recall when Vitamin A is liberated from opsins in the retina it is freed by incoming light. Vitamin A is normally recycled in the eye by the rhodopsin system to prevent accumulation.
The body uses vitamin A to make cells in the retina (the light-sensitive layer of tissue at the back of the eye). Then the ABCA4 gene makes a protein to clean up the fatty material that accumulates after the photooxidation of light that’s left over. In Stargardt disease, this gene doesn’t work — so the fatty material builds up in yellowish clumps on the macula. Over time, this fatty material kills the light-sensitive cells and destroys central vision.
Stargardt disease is an inherited genetic disease, which means it gets passed down from parents to children. This disease mimics what we see in the peripheral retina of people with type two blue light hazards.
When lipofuscin is seen in the inferior peripheral retina it is the first sign of coming neurodegeneration in the brain in the frontal and temporal lobes. This is where Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal dysplasia form.
The key feature for most neurodegenerative disorders is the accumulation of misfolded protein aggregates, framing them within the classification concept of proteinopathies or “protein conformational disorders”. However, it is important to underscore that not all neurodegenerative diseases are considered protein-conformational disorders. Proteins are semiconductive materials in cells that need constant care and rejuvenation. Melanin performs this vital function in tissues. If the redox power in the cell is suboptimal those semiconductive protein components will accumulate in the extracellular matrix of tissues ruing optical signaling.
Although the molecular underpinnings of neurodegeneration are still not completely understood by centralized medicine, if you are following my thesis, it should be obvious where the problem lies. As melanin is degraded or lost we see the loss of the RPE microvilli on the basal side of the RPE. This infolding by the microvilli increases the surface area of the RPE over a millionfold. The loss of microvilli is the first clinical sign of a POMC problem in the eye. This is the clinical sign one can see on OCT retinal scans that melanin needs renovation.
As melanin is lost at the tissue level so is mitochondrial function, so is the electric potential on lipid rafts, and melatonin levels drops from mitochondrial dysfunction. Recall from the picture above, that dopamine can be made DIRECTLY from L-DOPA when tissue level hypoxia is present. Dopamine can be created from melanin in mammals, but in the face of tissue level mitochondrial dysfunction but this ability is lost as well. This destroys many photoreceptor regeneration pathways (below).
Every thing listed above is destroyed and can lead to a myriad of diseases that afflict modern humans.
As a result, the ROS made in the eye cannot be absorbed by melanin. This increases the oxidative stress associated with the eye and into the brain via tracts that are topographically linked to the RPE and the rest of the human cortex. It also empties the retina of DHA because DHA breakdown products act to limit inflammation by stimulating autophagy. Without autophagy, we get apoptosis (apoptosis = cell loss = tissue/organ failure) with resultant necrosis. This can happen in any organ.
When it happens in the retina and AMD begins. Type two blue light hazard destroys the photoreceptors at the junction of where they meet melanin sheets in the RPE as seen below.
DHA in mammalian tissue is broken down into elovanoids and resolvins. Elovanoids and resolvins enhance the expression of pro-survival proteins in cells undergoing uncompensated oxidative stress. DHA helps stimulate autophagy to recycle photoreceptors in mammals. We have the most DHA in our tissues as a mammal for a reason; our brain is unique in the mammalian family. As we age heteroplasmy rises and so does melanin degradation. Thus, aging is associated with increasing levels of pro-oxidant factors (reactive oxygen species, ROS/RNS)
Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL)
This disease shows the effect of lipofuscin accumulation which rapidly destroys optical signaling in the brain by destroying white matter in the brain. Clinically, NCLs are associated with variable, progressive symptoms, including dementia, visual loss, seizures, and cerebral atrophy. One of the most striking morphologic changes in neurons during normal aging is the accumulation of lipofuscin (LF) aggregates, iron complexes, as well as, neuromelanin pigments. LF is an autofluorescent lipo-pigment formed by lipids, metals, and misfolded proteins, which is especially abundant in nerve cells, cardiac muscle cells, and skin. This disease shows the effect of rapid damage to the non visual photoreceptor system. Below you see the thinning or the corpus callosum (black arrow) which connects both halves the brain. You also see the thinning of the brainstem where the sleep centers are (white arrow). Even the cerebellum has prominent folia present below.
Within the Central Nervous System (CNS), LF accumulates as aggregates, delineating a specific senescence pattern in both physiological and pathological states, altering neuronal cytoskeleton and cellular trafficking and metabolism, and is associated with neuronal loss, and glial proliferation and activation. Traditionally, the accumulation of LF in the CNS has been considered a secondary consequence of the aging process, being a mere bystander of the pathological buildup associated with different neurodegenerative disorders. This will be seen in an enalarging ventricular system as the matter of the brain becomes atrophic. This is visualized by the two arrows in the MRI below. The real offender is a lack of melanin and DHA in our tissues due to nnEMF and blue light destruction liberating Vitamin A.
The enlarged state of the ventricles above destroys the FM radio station you learned about in QE #47 & 48. All of these things show you where melanin is being destroyed with mitochondria as the non visual photoreceptor system is being destroyed.
I believe self-organizing criticality theory (SOC) needs to critically look at the work of Ilya Prigogine on how dissipative systems operate in mammals. I believe this is why SOC is stuck in the mud with modern centralized neuroscientists. To understand this idea you need to understand how the liberation of Vitamin A from our non-visual photoreceptors begins the process of diseases by destroying all of our photoreceptors.
People in centralized science seem to forget that all of the cytochrome proteins in our mitochondria are also heme-based photoreceptors that are linked to this damage cascade. This is found in every human disease I have studied the last 20 years, from Autism & Alzheimer’s diseases all the way to zoonosis. This fully explains how our environmental choices lead to mitochondrial destruction in a few steps. This is wholly an idea in decentralized science that needs to be understood.
Why do cells organize by changing their size and shape in mitochondria before diseases or phenotypes begin to vary Uncle Jack?
Efficiency of maintenance of metastability in the tissue is the short answer. The science of how heat interacts with matter is called thermodynamics and this science can be boiled down to 4 laws. Most people talk about the main three laws, but the fourth one shows us how energy flows in the universe by a microscopic reversible process. The 4th law is “The Onsager reciprocity relationship.”
This law shows how symmetrical coupling of processes (circadian mechanisms in cells) can arise naturally in a system under energy flow that moves from an areas with a lot of energy to one with a small amount of energy. The area around a mitochondria where melanin is unusually prominent in humans and cell membranes of the skin is loaded with energy because of proteins that act like a capacitor. This is what melanin does for cells. It drives the Onsager reciprocity to operate in cells. A capacitor is a battery holds a ton of charge. This is what melanin is doing in cells. Lipofuscin is evidence of a destroyed battery.
In nature, Lars Onsager showed that energy moves from high potential to lower potential naturally. He is often given credit for this unofficial 4th law of thermodynamics. All these laws of thermodynamics are subject to one main law of how energy relates to matter in the universe. That law is mass equivalence, or E=mc^2.
All things in biology, boil down to size and shape, not genetics as the current centralized paradigm professes. This is why size is a signal for ongoing thermodynamic changes in the Vitamin A cycle of the POMC neurons in the suprachiasmatic nucleus before gender tracts in the hypothalamus are laid down in the embryo. This is evidence of light changing the signal for mitochondrial autophagy and apoptosis programs related to gender issues in decentralized fashion. We see the changes in the tissue at a macroscopic level.
SUMMARY
The blue light hazard creates lipofuscin in tissues by Vitamin A liberation. It is not a consequence of any other process linked to DHA as some of the ignorant have spewed on social media.
Vitamin A liberation always is associated with sleep disturbance.
DHA content in your cell membranes INCREASES your ability to engage in autophagy because it breaks down into chemicals involved in the visual and non visual photoreceptor system that resolve inflammation via wound healing. Vitamin A destruction caused by blue light impedes this effect by lowering resolvins and elovanoids in the photoreception repair process in humans. This is what leads to increases in lipofuscin in tissues. It is an early marker of organ failure. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0531556514000722
Autophagy is critical in growing and maintaining the neocortex size of humans. This is especially true in cases of neurodegeneration and autism when you are trying to repair defects from Vitamin A liberation in any mammalian tissue. This turns Vitamin A into an aldehyde that acts to destroy all visual and non-visual photoreceptors that impede tissue regeneration in humans. This leads to increases in lipofuscin. It is a marker for Vitamin A liberation.
Anyone who thinks this is due to too much DHA needs to be placed on ignore. it is 180 degrees opposite this opinion.
The quality of their sleep (also linked to the Vitamin A cycle) is also critical because it maximizes autophagy and does not deplete our stem cells in the recycling process. The more efficient autophagy is the more you protect your stem cell supply and the longer you can live or regenerate.
Autophagic efficiency is linked directly to energy-mass equivalence (Einstein). The more electrons you have in your brain the more autographic efficiency you will have to absorb exogenous or endogenous light production. All cells created in the young human’s brain are newly minted post-mitotic cells (think Autism as an example). Broken autophagy at a tissue level almost always tells us there is a problem with the sleep centers in dorsal longitudinal fasiculus mentioned in recent blogs. Many diseases have this effect built into pathogenesis.
Autophagy augments longevity in all post-mitotic cells in 5 ways:
The 5 cytoprotective effects of autophagy:
1. Reduced accumulation of toxic protein aggregates or misfiled proteins via Vitamin A damage
2. Destroying bad mitochondria via mitophagy and sensed via size and shape changes in mitochondria
3. Reduced apoptosis to prevent stem cell depletion = organ failure
4. Reduced necrosis to stop organ failure.
5. Improved hormesis by increasing the redox stickiness of semiconductors made of carbon and water like melanin & collagen.
Why is blue light bad for mitochondria and why does it cause us to eat more than we should? All foods are linked directly and indirectly to photosynthetic webs. Most modern humans are divorced from evolutionary theory and from mitochondrial science. Blue light/nnEMF spreads out the respiratory proteins on cytochromes and destroys the cytochromes via Vitamin A liberation and this DECREASES our natural coupling ability in our mitochondria DNA was given to us by our maternal haplotype. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4684129/
People at war with their species’ directives from Nature will always cause collateral damage in the lives of those around them. It begs the question, how smart are we really today? Humans now write books to collect their ideas. Books are really harbors for these beliefs. This book below might hint that our current beliefs around technology might be the death of human intelligence. Humans are now creating books with the idea that we can “do better” than nature. Might this be a situation where our ‘best invention’ or our final act on the planet? Our assumptions are based on the lenses we use to view the world. Are we now at the time where we have to put some Windex on our glass eyes? I believe it is the job of ‘mitochondriacs’ not to be on the same side as the executioners.
2. Is time a risk for us all?
Without risk, life is worthless; without risk, biology does not work. Evolutionary biology is based on the random risk of natural selection and the conditions of existence. Evolutionary biology has used time as its canvas of innovation. Darwin coined both of these terms but only explained the first well. The second idea was his better one, but he simply could not explain what conditions of existence meant. The reason was simple. He did not understand quantum field physics.
Of the two, he said he knew, the latter was the most powerful force in biology. He was dead right, but since his time evolutionary biology and my critics have believed natural selection is the most important. It is not true. Today, we know “conditions of existence” meant epigenetics.
Darwin spent the rest of his life looking for ‘epigenetics’ in an idea labeled “Pangenes”. He believed that Pangenes were responsible for translated environmental influences that have now become known as epigenetics today. Today we know that small frequency EMFs called the Schumann resonance imprints water and create a life where there was none by using the power of quantum coherence of water.
Evolution is in large part, about how these electromagnetic epigenetic signals are transferred from living organism to living organism by bioelectrical cellular communication; it’s comparing quantum resonance notes and frequency notes and copying and pasting new epigenetic signals on RNA and DNA to make new genetic recipes to create a survival solution from life’s current condition of chaos. Water hides the mechanisms of quantum field theory from our senses. The miracle of your brain isn’t that you can see the world as it is. It’s that you can see the world as it isn’t to understand how you fit in Nature.
When we understand how that dish was created, we gain deep insight into how to keep that dish tasting fresh every time a generation is replicated. Today trans-generational epigenetics tells us something is badly off in our species. How we use light determines the time we experience.
3. What is time to you?
Time is among the very few things that once lost can never be recovered. Think about it: the average life of a person is just a reservoir of 2.4 billion seconds or 75 years in first-world nations, where life expectancy is quite high. The situation is worse in third-world nations. This is how we know in reality time is relative. So, with each passing second our reservoir sheds time, just like in an hourglass.
Time is always in motion. It does not stop for anyone, rich or poor, famous or ordinary, Muslim or Christian, man or woman. Time, like light, never stops moving.
Moving light amongst atoms creates the sensation of time in cells.
4. If time is light, what light are you using to spend your time?
Even with the best light of the sun, time depreciates in quantity, but appreciates in value as time goes by. As we age, we realize that we are not invincible and that death is always around the corner. It becomes crystal clear that time is a great asset that we have wasted away chasing after things that have no importance at all. Darwin never linked biology to light and light to timing. This is why his theories remain ONLY operational back to the Cambrian explosion. At that moment in Earth’s history, his theory becomes impotent.
The Cambrian period, part of the Paleozoic era, produced the most intense burst of evolution ever known out of the blue 650 million years ago. The Cambrian Explosion saw an incredible diversity of life emerge, including many major animal groups alive today.
The major animal body plans that appeared in the Cambrian Explosion did not include the appearance of modern animal groups such as: starfish, crabs, insects, fish, lizards, birds and mammals. These animal groups all appeared at various times much later in the fossil record. Cephalopods however were one of the first animals to emerge and their body plan was the rough draft of what would become the homo sapien brain 650 million years later.
The forms that appeared in the Cambrian Explosion were more primitive than these later groups, and many of them were soft-bodied organisms. However, they did include the basic features that define the major branches of the tree of life to which later life forms belong. For example, vertebrates are part of the Chordata group. The chordates are characterized by a nerve cord, gill pouches and a support rod called the notochord. In the Cambrian fauna, we first see fossils of soft-bodied creatures with these characteristics. However, the living groups of vertebrates appeared much later. It is also important to realize that many of the Cambrian organisms, although likely near the base of major branches of the tree of Life, did not possess all of the defining characteristics of modern animal body plans. These defining characteristics appeared progressively over a much longer period of time.
5. Was time the canvas of Darwin’s theory?
Darwin lived in a world where the church made everyone believe for 2000 years that the Earth was no older than 6000 years old. Lyell’s observations in geology had a tremendous impact on Darwin before he got on “The Beagle”. It made Darwin realize just how important timing was to biology. This idea was to think of time are grand scales = BIG TIME.
Life however uses time at small scales and this is why cells were built. Cells are like the states inside the borders of the USA. Some states share a time zone and others do not. This is why California and Florida are so foreign to many people. They are small little rooms in us where atoms must be specifically arranged to operate with amazing fidelity Tissues are comprised of small states called cells. And within the cell, there are municipalities and counties. All of those local zip codes in cells are under the direction of the light of our sun.
Today, it remains noteworthy in centralized science taught to physicians that it is exactly this timing principle, that is foundational to the cumulative power of incremental change over millions and billions of years and thousands of generations. Darwin realized time was critical to life’s formation. Both of his ideas, natural selection and conditions of existence, are subject to a deep understanding of true space-time in a palindromic fashion.
Mitochondria are dissipative structures in cells, but not the only ones. They transform energy and create order from the disorder in light energy they use to operate. The water mitochondria create via the metabolism of food is probably the single most important dissipative structure that life is based upon in cells. According to Ilya Prigogine, determinism loses its explanatory power in the face of irreversibility and instability in dissipative systems. This is a major departure from the approach of Newton, Einstein, and Schrödinger, all of whom expressed their theories in terms of deterministic equations.
What does all this scientific mumbo jumbo above imply with respect to time?
Time is the most critical issue to the dissipative system. While most current thermodynamical analyses used in biology completely ignore space-time structure, the “thermodynamics of organized complexity” applying to living systems depends WHOLLY on space-time heterogeneity, which allows a ‘free’ variation of microscopic states within macroscopic constraints. THIS DEFINES WHAT A MITOCHONDRIA WAS DESIGNED TO DO AND TO BE IN A VARYING EMF FIELD CREATED ON THIS PLANET by the sun.
Darwin knew conditions of existence (environment) were the most critical part of his theory, but he could not figure out how natural selection and conditions of existence operated in unison to create evolutionary change. The neo-Darwinist who came after him totally destroyed his theory because they focused on nuclear DNA as the change agent. It is not. Genes only code for part of the semiconductor life uses to change life.
This illustrates the point that when the centralized paradigms in science do not know what they do not know and when what you do not know turns out to be the most important thing in how evolution unfolds, epic mistakes in understanding are the result. This is how unintended consequences happen. We are looking at the wrong genome to understand life.
This missing link in his work almost sunk his theory back in his epoch. They both lie at the heart of his evolutionary opus if you read it. I have read it many times. Just like an individual basalt flow, an asteroid strike, or the tiny amount of sedimentary rock, that can be carried away annually by a waterway, the change within species due to natural selection is quite small if we just consider it over its life span of some years or decades. Darwin was able to grasp how far it could take life when given the “proper geological time” to work with. That time was able to apply consistent pressure for a few tens or hundreds of thousands of years, and those small changes start to begin to add up to massive alterations to the organism = Big time is geological time scales. Evolution happens at the attosecond, not geologic time.
Darwin proposed his theory at a time when Newton’s perspectives about time drove thinking. Back in Darwin’s epoch, time was not relative, it was absolute because Newton’s ideas dominated physics. Darwin never knew Newton was wrong about time so this never affected Darwin’s theory. Time being relative has big implications for biology. It means inside cell compartments, time zones, and zip codes exist because the light is moving at relative speeds depending on the matter that it interacts with within a cell.
These interactions create new spectral densities that control how change happens in a cell. In fact, it is these light frequencies that turn on and off genes coded for in DNA. What Darwin did not know is that our mtDNA is the source of that coherent biophoton light. The gene is not the key but the light that turns them on or off is the key to the mystery.
Cells capture sunlight using melanin and ater semiconduction and transform that sunlight in cells into biological biophotons. That transformation creates the light that sculpts all life. That is the hammer of evolution. In a weird twist of fate, Darwin and Genesis have a lot in common and neither one of them ever realized it. Biological bio-photons switch on the body’s processes like an orchestra conductor bringing each individual instrument into the collective sound. At different frequencies, they perform different functions.
This is why Darwin’s theory has remained unfinished for 170 years. We do not understand how light is being used in cells. If the majority of light around us is unseen, what is it capable of doing to cells? What are the implications for time? Is this what drives evolution? Is this what makes disease show up immediately without any change to nuclear DNA? Of course, that is what I now believe.
6. Does the perspective we have of time color our beliefs in science?
Time at small scales is why Nature innovated cells.
In my writings, I am pointing out the very same problem that modern chemistry and biology have today, because of how they fail to include molecular timing as a vital ingredient into the recipe of how life forms and evolves from the chaos the world it finds itself in presently. We know light controls timing. What we are finding out now is how light does it. Moreover, we are seeing diseases in modern man that illuminate these ideas. Decentralized clinicians are now asking “how does modern life affects the evolutionary flux right now?” The answer is called transgenerational epigenetics. This should be called the new name for “conditions of existence”.
Today, modern science has no idea that the smallest changes in “molecular timing” can cause massive changes in the cellular response in one hundred years to cause massive neolithic disease at very short time scales of human life. My ideas and Darwin’s idea are cut from the very same cloth as Darwin, but my clock is radically different than Darwin. Because time is relative I can say Darwin was wrong because his theory was based on an innacurate viewpoint of how biology uses time. What is the difference and why am I provocative in saying Darwin was wrong? Because he had a Newtonian understanding of time and I have an Einsteinian understanding that everything is relative including time and this is a game changer in understanding the big themes in biology.
Absolute time of Newton means there is cause and effect. When time is relative there can be no cause and effect because everything is based on a probability. This is a huge problem for modern medicine who thinks the cause and effect in RCT is the gold standard. It is a centralized fallacy.
Darwin used “big time”, to figure out his evolutionary opus, while I am using “femto and atto-time scales” to figure out the riddle’s buried in Nature. This idea was hinted in the Rubin/Huberman podcast when I talked about Dr. Gazi Yasargil. He innovated Cushing and Dandy’s world of neurosurgery by bring the operating microscope to surgery so neurosurgery lost its macroscopic perspective of neurologic disease and got it at the microlevel. Today, I am doing the same with quantum biology. I am making biology and medicine leave the paradigm of biochemistry and thermodynamics to head to the quantum level of understanding. I am shrinking down our field of vision to make sense of the macroscopic world of disease. Because of this perspective, it turns out, timing at the smallest scale in cells can cause disease to show up out of the blue. Pun intended.
Einstein’s science is based in quantum field theory and his Theory of Relativity also uses “time” as a key variable. Noether’s thereom is tied to Einstein’s theory of time. The analogy is startling, when you consider it. Modern science has lost the perspective of nanoscopic time on the biochemistry of life because it works on quantum coherence and not in the world of classic physics that modern science sees today. The bioenergenic stoichiometry of ATP hydrolysis can not explain real time enzyme fluxes and kinetics when they are measured in living tissues. I can, using quantum field theory.
To see how blind biology really is, they gave Peter Mitchell a Noble Prize for this idea in 1978. Because of this alone, I do not expect them to adapt fast. Embarrassment is hard to overcome in centralized science. Every organic chemist on this planet believes Mitchell’s is right about membranes and chemiosmosis and if you continue to follow those organic chemists, you will die faster than you should. This is a bold statement, but it is based on the universality of quantum thermodynamics in cells.
Once I realized disordered quantum time was the etiology of our demise, I sensed that nothing so makes us desire to spend out time wisely than to reflect on vita brevis; the brevity of life. Disordered time increases entropy production in cells. It does this by moving atoms around incorrectly and the light becomes impotent inside of cells to carry on the business of living properly.
7. When you see time as relative and not absolute what is the result?
Based upon what I know now about time, I believe we need to think differently than we ever have heretofore about how light sculpts time in our cells. When you fully understand the implications of Einstein’s ideas on biology you will begin to see what unfolds in a doctor’s office and on social media in a different light.
Ever since Einstein papers in 1905, scientists have also been scratching their heads about how to make sense of space and time. Before then, almost everybody thought Isaac Newton had figured it all out. Time “flows equably without relation to anything external,” he declared. Absolute space is also its own thing, “always similar and immovable.” Nothing to see there. Events of physical reality performed independently on a neutral stage where actors strutted and fretted without influencing the rest of the theater of life.
But Einstein’s theories turned Newton’s absolute space and time into a relativistic mash-up — his equations suggested a merged spacetime, a new sort of arena in which the players altered the space of the playing field. It was a physics game changer. No longer did space and time provide a featureless backdrop for matter and energy as it flowed. Formerly independent and uniform, space and time became inseparable and variable. And as Einstein showed in his general theory of relativity, matter and energy warped the spacetime surrounding it.
Cells create their own space-time effects using sunlight.
Melanin captures sunlight and buries it at the electronic level in cells with the help of water created by the metabolism of food. This gives cells the ability to bend space-time differently in different compartments of a cell’s zipcode. Each zipcode is like and instrument in the orchestra. To make the music of life, each zipcode needs to be conducted to create a harmony. Circadian biology is the conductor of all the zipcodes. Centralized modern medicine can not fix this mess by itself, but we can teach people how to slow time down for patients to give them a chance to collectively solve the issue for themselves. Once manufactured EMFs are created by energy transformation they can not be destroyed, but the law of energy conservation says they can be transformed. Every EMF ever created outside the Schumann resonance is like a 45 caliber bullet shot into the human SCN that goes on forever bouncing off the ground and hitting the ionosphere.
As the hyperlink above shows, extraterrestrial nnEMF just being on the outside of the protection of our magnetosphere carries risk to cells.
8. Does the simple variation of the tilt of Earth change how cells experience times at the smallest scales?
If you focus on the fuel & the timing of how food is made photosynthetically, while neglecting the fidelity of the matrix engine, you’ll never understand how biology operates electronically. The tilt of the axis of the Earth is the source of all the quirkiness in circadian biology. This non-linear relationship should astound you. When you think about it, and I mean really think about it, as I have done for 20 years you begin to see how the process links the environment to cellular processes.
Circadian rhythms provide a selective advantage by anticipating organismal cyclic needs and guaranteeing optimal metabolic capacity during active hours when the sun is out. It is wholly dependent on the invisible parts of the terrestrial spectrum of the sun. If those hours are in the sun the clocks work differently if they are in the darkness and nocturnal. Impairment of circadian rhythms is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and emerging evidence suggests that metabolic diseases are linked to perturbed clock machinery and not the fuel source at cytochrome 1 (NADH/NAD+). I told you a long time ago tryptophan was a time crystal and most of you laughed. NAD+ is made from tryptophan. I am laughing at you now for mocking me when I knew better. NAD+ informs the circadian system how to tick with a better periodicity. The more periodicity in the clock mechanism the better the clock is in controlling the flow of entropy in all the zipcodes in cells. That is how we are organized below the level of the cell. 100% physics. Biology is not a foundational science. It is a complex of non linear physics and condesed matter physics.
It appears that certain fuels operate the matrix better when cytochrome 1 is “time defective” in recycling NAD+ to move protons in mitochondria. That is it should not be carte blanche to vilify foods, as most LCHF people do. We have to stop blaming foods for what improper light causes. Bad light causes bad timing to occur. Why it happens is very counterintuitive, but I hope you are begining to see how Uncle Jack sees the world now.
In the universe, photons do not experience time. They are packets of energy that have no mass and must constantly move. Photons ONLY interact with electrons in matter in a cell. All parts of the electromagnetic spectrum interact with matter differently = this is where time relativity comes from.
Look at the picture below. The atoms in the center have different electrons, therefore living cells experience time differently.
All food webs are linked directly back to the sun via photosynthesis. It should be the reason you learn more about the quantized cytochrome engines that are defective because of a broken circadian mechanism that happens due to your choices made of light used in your environment. When you realize this is all tied to our planet’s tilt, you just fall back into a chair and are stunned. This is foundational to the Black Swan mitochondriac perspective. The circadian clock regulates many transcriptional–translational processes influencing whole-cell metabolism and particularly mitochondrial activity. It uses light variations to change the charge density of things DNA codes for to get the job done. Below is how light creates the zipcodes in organelles in cells.
9. How does time link to life?
Life is built around the complexity of how light powers electrons. Life is all about ionization. Ionization is the process by which an atom or a molecule in a cell acquires a negative or positive charge by gaining or losing electrons. This often in conjunction with other chemical changes from the action of electron movements and alterations in their charge. Light excites and powers electrons & protons to do some unusual things that cells depend upon. (pic above)
In the simplest Quantum Field Theory that describes our reality, the quantum electrodynamics of Julian Schwinger, Shinichiro Tomonaga and Richard Feynman, there are only two quantum fields: the electromagnetic field and the electron field.
The inception of QFT is usually dated 1927 with Dirac’s famous paper on “The quantum theory of the emission and absorption of radiation” (Dirac 1927). Here Dirac coined the name quantum electrodynamics (QED) which is the part of QFT that has been developed first.
The Heisenberg uncertainty relation means that a quantum field cannot sit still. Instead, it froths and boils, a bubbling soup of particles and anti-particles, constantly created and destroyed. This complexity is what makes quantum field theory hard to comprehend. Even nothingness is difficult to understand in quantum field theory.
QFT is used in particle physics to construct physical models of subatomic particles and in condensed matter physics to construct models of quasiparticles. Life uses many quasiparticles to comminicate via non linear optics framework. QFT treats particles as excited states (also called quanta) of their underlying quantum fields, which are more fundamental than the particles.
Quantum Field Theory (QFT) is, at least in its origin, the result of trying to work with both quantum mechanics and special relativity. Loosely speaking, the uncertainty principle tells us that we can violate energy conservation by ∆E as long as it is for a small ∆t.
“Small time” is how cells experience time at the atto or femto/atto time scales.
Few know that the uncertainty principle doesn’t just refer to an observer not being able to know simultaneous position or velocity of particles and waves in Nature, uncertainity also tells us there is no determinacy between time and energy.
It also means there is no cause & effect. There is only a probability that something can happen. This is a big deal for modern science who still believe in cause and effect in how science is done in centralized medicine via RCTs.
I think they know it, but they hope you do not realize it. Why? If you did fully understand it, they’d have no business. when you see my perspective clearly you begin to view the PEER literature as fake news. This will offend most PhDs. It should. You are accomplices in this theft of time.
FAKE NEWS IS A BUSINESS PLAN now.. FAKE CENTRALIZED SCIENCE has become the most PROFITABLE version of manufactured truth for the profiteers.
I think Satoshi had to have an interest in mathematics and physics at some point in his life. The way he built BTC code is that proof. He seemed to know that the uncertainty principle connecting energy & time could be violated, so time scarcity had to be BTC base case in its code.
The principle of indeterminacy applied to time and energy is critical in decentralized structures like cells.
Deep implications of this perspective of time I’ve developed post Darwin?
Spacetime & gravity has to emerge from something else. Why? Because of the incongruity present in relativity and quantum mechanics. It’s impossible to understand how Einstein’s gravity & the math of quantum mechanics can reconcile their longstanding incompatibility.
Einstein’s view of gravity as the manifestation of spacetime geometry has been enormously successful in science. But quantum mechanics has also shared this success. QM describes the machinations of matter and energy on the atomic scale with unerring accuracy.
It has been tested thousands of times and QM is undefeated. Attempts to find coherent math that accommodates quantum weirdness with geometric gravity, have met formidable technical and conceptual roadblocks. I believe both emerge from light, the electromagnetic force. We just have not realized it yet.
Quantum entanglement doesn’t happen in spacetime as most believe.
Entanglement actually creates spacetime.
Light creates entanglement and time.
Entanglement arises from the connection between particles.
Life takes full advantage of all of these connections via the partnership of melanin and water in cells.
10. What is time on a psychologic level for humans?
On a psychological level, time is quite malleable to our perception of time. When life speeds up, time slows down, such as at moments of great threat like trauma that require a slower arena for the will to act. If you are about to be hit by a car, time should slow down for you, allowing you perhaps to jump or duck (if there is time of course). Anyone with panic disorder will tell you that their 10-15 minute long panic attacks actually feel eternal. Of course things are not that simple. Time goes slowly when one lacks meaning in their life as well. Think back to the old clock on the wall of your last class of the week back in high-school. Children experience time differently than adults do as well. It seems to them Christmas takes ten years to get here every year.
SUMMARY
The point here is to make you aware that time is relative in how we experience and perceive it and today, no one is realizing that how cells experience time tells the story of modern diseases. That is what I want you to realize today.
Darwin was able to think what might happen while he slowed down time in his own mind. I am presenting the other side of the coin for you to consider. What happens to biochemistry when timing at femtoseconds is altered because our electric or magnetic fields are altered as life evolves over a short period of time? Essentially, how do alterations in light change quantum time in your cells to speed up epigenetic de-evolution to cause disease?
I can not compete with your current beliefs about time, nor do I want to. When you read my work, I need you to suspend your beliefs around time, then allow me to show you what I have found about how time really is below the cell level.
Let the science of Einstein and Darwin lead you as it lead me for 20 years. I had to erase my beliefs to get to a new understanding of what nature is doing at the smallest scales in mitochondria. I was a victim of poor thinking because of my centralized education. I decided to unlearn to relearn and then became a survivor. I have chosen to become a warrior for these new ideas.
I spent an entire year and half of my life realizing that all I was taught had to be rethought with this new perspective on time. I was trained to believe all the lessons in physics, chemistry, and biology textbooks were accurate. Then, I had the realization being wrong for 40 years really has no feeling unless I ascribe one to it.
Just because something’s logical, doesn’t mean it’s wise. Something can make sense in and of itself, but when tested against reality yield an undesirable or inefficient outcome. Being seduced by impractical logic is antithetical to wisdom, you just feel smart despite being wrong. I am addicted to be correct. This is why I could care less what others think about me or my methods. I am vicious and relentless for the truth.
If you know you’re wrong, and feel like your on solid ground you might feel like you are correct. This is where most of your centralized thought leaders are right now in science and politics. It was my Dunning Kruger moment close to 20 years ago.
I was in that place in 2005. I got stuck in the box of thinking I was correct, when I was dead wrong. Today, I am asking you to think deeply about the time paradox and the possibility that quantum field theory may explain every perplexing thing you see in a doctors office today.
The variables we are facing today in our modern electromagnetic environment are going to help us understand the results and the diseases we face in modern healthcare.
Darwin used the fossils in the ground to gauge his idea of “deep time” in millions of years. He realized small changes over” big time” could lead to massive changes in geology and for life. Lyell’s ideas in his book gave him that insight.
Darwin and Einstein gave me the insight to figure out why everyone in my clinic had inflammation in their MRIs and trashed labs when I began to look closely at them. When cells timing is off = small quantum spacetime has to be altered at some level. This is axiomatic because we know time is relative. This implies molecular chaos can result when light changes inside of cells and disease can happen on quicker timescales than we all believe possible. When we cannot hold the charge density light brings to our tissues we experience time differently. We get diseases faster and we die sooner than we should.
This is why Alzheimer disease can happen in 40 year olds today. This is why 3 year olds can go through puberty, and 10 year olds get carotid stenosis now and develop heart disease by 20 today. This is why autism incidence and prevalence has exploded in three decades. It is also why myocarditis can show up and kill people after weeks to months of getting a jab. Diseases of aging are now diseases of youth because our environment has changed dramatically on Earth with respect to light use.
Altered quantum time under the influence of manufactured light is the MAIN reason why this is happening today.
Humanity can’t manage time because we can not stretch a minute or stop a clock, yet. Time goes on and we can make a better use of time, by managing ourself better using our choices and priorities around light. This is the new knowledge I’ve been sharing for close to two decades now. We manage time best by managing the light around ourselves better. Decentralized MDs of the future need to become expert metronomes.
With every minute that passes from here on in, realize we are trading our lives for something. Let’s ensure that the trade is worth it and that it’s not squandered.
We ALL have the same twenty-fours a day to enjoy and use to the best of our ability that any successful person who has ever lived did or does. That’s 86,400 seconds a day, 168 hours a week, 24 hours a day for 7 days a week to fulfill our mission. Soon you will realize every person mission on this planet should be aligned to making sure our cells are using sunlight because we are all entangled to its power.
How do you see time now?
I see time in the first cite on Tweet number 11-12.
Linear optics includes most applications of lenses, mirrors, waveplates, diffraction gratings, and many other common optical components and systems. Cells use some of these things but were limited for a long time because the two domains of life had no way to use this sunlight maximally because primative cells were destroyed by UV light. This kept life simple. The development of photosynthetic crystals 30 million years before the Cambrian explosion changed the possibilities of cells. They began to be able to use non-linear optics to change their interiors.
Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals serves the goal for generating coherent laser in the ultraviolet (UV) and deep-ultraviolet (DUV) frequency range through second-harmonic generation (SHG).
RBCs and chlorophyll are porphyrins. They absorb UV-IR light but they are able to split water which has a huge ionization energy of 12.06 eV. Nature decided to use NLO crystals to create an ocean of freed electrons from water to move in a semiconductive circuit of carbon. Among the different classes of nonlinear materials, prophyrin compounda are a kind of macrocyclic conjugated organic molecule which have an extensive system of delocalized π-electrons, constitute a major organic molecules suitable for NLO device applications. It seems nature got in this game long ago.
Materials with large birefringence (Δn) are highly needed by fiber-optic isolators, whereas crystals showing strong second-order harmonic generation (SHG) are the key component for all-solid-state laser devices.
Fiber-optic isolators are passive devices that reduce back reflections in optical fibers and backscattering of light to improve the signal to noise ratio.
Nonlinear frequency conversion provides essential tools for cells in generating new colors/frequencies as well as unique quantum states of light. Nonlinear optical processes in solid-state materials are widely used for generating quantum light, including single photons, entangled-photon pairs, and quadrature-squeezed states.
The monolithic integration of optical elements onto a wideband gapped semiconductor chip provides several advantages. These include suppression of phase fluctuations and other sources of noise and decoherence, the compactness required to build complex quantum photonic networks that would be impossibly large with traditional table-top optics, and an increase in system-level efficiency that ultimately impacts information processing and communication rates. Cells settled on specific atoms on a hydrated carbon base to build their optical network.
Cells have been using optical communication for 3.7 billion years but the tech industry just began using atomic sources of single and entangled photons for 55 years. The tech industry recently began to use spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC). This is a χ(2)nonlinear process in which a pump photon is destroyed to create two correlated photons traditionally called the signal and idler.
It was not until 1995 that a high-quality, intense source of polarization-entangled photon pairs became available with table-top type-II spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC), which enabled the production of all four EPR-Bell states
DNA/RNA only codes for proteins. On Earth, we only use 20. The 20 naturally occurring amino acids have the ability to make 75,000 different proteins because each difference in the amino acid sequence is a different protein. One change of an amino acid from the sequence is considered to be a new protein. It is also accepted if the protein has a repeating unit of one amino acid.
But Nature stepped up its game at the Cambrian explosion when more UV light fell to Earth and the two domains of life merged to form eukaryotes which protected DNA from UV degradation. How did this happen? I believe the Cambrian explosion is when melanin was created due to the elevated UV reaching the surface and MSH-like genes were innovated from viral parts in the sea and they eventually were added to the interior of early eukaryotic cells. To this day most of the integument cells have POMC located in them. Because melanin can absorb all frequencies of electromagnetic radiation the excess boost of UV became useful and not detrimental to the new domain of life. Very rapidly these cells were changed because cells could use more powerful frequencies of light in which to harvest solar power. That power was used to build complexity. This changed how cells could communicate.
The essence of what we are talking about here is how can terrestrial sunlight be boosted to take advantage of the chemistry of water and the 20 amino acids coded for in DNA.
In my podcast with Dr. Huberman told me about his fascination with cephalopods and how he uses them in his research. He seemed quite shocked and I told him our cells are doing the same thing in our brains except we cannot see the light as we do in squid because they have a simpler design. I asked him if he understood where the light was coming from and what it represented. He really had no idea. He has always been fascinated by these animals and how they take light in through their eyes and reflect it on their integument to emit the light to the environment to communicate. I explained to him what he sees in the tanks every day in his labs is evidence of semiconduction in cells and the cells using second-order electro-optical signals to create birefringence.Birefringence is the optical property of a material having a refractive index that depends on the polarization and propagation direction of light. Sunlight is unpolarized. Water surface is a typical polarizer in nature. Water becomes polarized by sunlight.
Electro-optics are part of non-linear optical communication.
Applying a voltage to a crystal changes its refractive indices and introduces birefringence. This is what a mitochondrion does inside human cells. We change the voltages on our inner mitochondrial membrane and this changes the colors a mitochondrion can emit. All those colors stimulate different chromophores inside the structure of a mitochondrion to run the metabolism of oxidative phosphorylation and create water, CO2, and heat to reverse the process of photosynthesis. The light show cephalopods are putting on is the optical representation of their metabolism in real-time. It doubles as a communication skill because they can vary their metabolism in the compartments of their cells. They emit these colors to communicate. It replaces their ability to speak. Humans have had 560 million years to upgrade and change their communication skills.
I told Dr. Huberman I liked cephalopods because as a neurosurgeon they allow me to look back and see the earliest organizations of a neural network. Many people do not know that Cephalopods evolved during the Cambrian period (∼530 Ma) very close to when this UV expansion fell to Earth. This also explains how we went from bacteria and archaea so fast into very complex cephalopod animals. The earliest melanin chemicals were critical to this rapid evolution. These animals came from a monoplacophoran-like mollusk in which the conical, external shell was modified into a chambered buoyancy apparatus. During the mid-Palaeozoic (∼416 Ma) cephalopods diverged into nautiloids and the presently dominant coleoids.
NON-LINEAR OPTICS is the base communication system inside of cells. Nonlinear optics allows us to change the color of a light beam, to change its shape in space and time, and to create the shortest events ever made by humans. Nature has been at this game a lot longer than Silicon Valley. They just began the game in 1961.
Nonlinear optical phenomena are the basis of many components of optical communications systems and optical sensing. NLO(Nonlinear) Crystals, means crystals that can generate nonlinear optical effects from a laser beam or electricity, a magnetic field, a semiconductor LED, or a strain field. As we age we lose the ability to make metabolic water and most of the biomolecules that use NLO are hydrated. As we become hydrated many people find that the addition of plant chemical psychedelics can replace the missing water to amplify NLO functions in cells. There is a famous quote attributed to Tesla about harnessing the magnetic flux of the sun to make it useful. Blood is one such crystal that allows mitochondria to keep a constant communication network operating between our sun and our colony of mitochondria. NLO crystal in us does this for living systems. Below is an NLO system in your standard laser pointer.
Why do cells value wide band gap semiconduction?
WBG semicondutors make VUV light and cells intern use this light to craft UV biophotons for signaling.
The real answer is they need it to create order out of the chaos in sunlight and to ramp up power generation to create the negative entropy state in a cell. This creates a dissipative structure in a cell that invites the complexity of biological cycles to begin to form and gain order and be controlled by light emission from within the cell. This requires atomic-level precision.
Semiconductor quantum wells have very large optical nonlinearity at low levels of excitation and give larger absolute changes in absorption and refractive index. This allows for the massive signal amplification from visible light we see in all living neural networks. Optical nonlinearity from free carrier absorption or free carrier refraction is important at wavelengths of 10 μm or longer.
Optical signal processing in cells for the last 560 million years is the future for human technology when they figure out how to use semiconductors as cells do with a carbon lattice that is hydrated. When Silicon Valley figures this out this will offer them an optical generation of electrons and holes to control the absorption and refractive index of their semiconductors. Cells already do this. They have been perfecting this for 3.8 billion years on Earth.
The nonlinear refractive index of water can be as large as 7 × 10^–10 cm2 W^–1 in the THz frequency range — a million times larger than the value in the visible and near-infrared, according to Russian researchers. The finding confirms earlier theoretical predictions that ionic vibrations in water generate large THz nonlinearities. https://opg.optica.org/oe/fulltext.cfm?uri=oe-27-8-10419&id=408122
What are the most important nonlinear effects of optical fiber communication?
Two important nonlinear effects in optical fibers fall into this category; both of them are related to the vibrational excitation modes of silica. These phenomena, known as stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) and stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS), were among the first nonlinear effects studied in optical fibers.
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS)
Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) is an inelastic process where a photon of the incident optical signal (pump) stimulates molecular vibration of the material and loses part of its energy. Because of the energy loss, the photon reemits in a lower frequency (Smith, 1972). This is how we make light weaker than the incident light that is absorbed.
The interactions in SRS are due to molecular vibrations rather than acoustic ones. Scattered light can appear in both the forward and backward directions when this is used in cells.
STIMULATED BRILLOUIN SCATTERING
Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is similar to SRS in that energy is transferred from an optical pump beam to longer wavelengths through interaction with the glass medium, except that acoustic phonons are involved in the actions, and hence the frequency shift is small, about 11 GHz, and the bandwidth very small, typically 50 MHz.
The fundamental difference is that, the optical phonons participate in SRS while SBS is through acoustic phonons. As a result of this difference, SBS occurs only in one direction
Phasematching conditions for SBS result in unidirectional gain, i.e., in the backward direction relative to the pump, however, the gain is polarization-independent.
Because of the narrow bandwidth, the gain efficiency is large (e.g., 6 dB/mW in a typical fiber), and the threshold pump power low (e.g., 1 mW), however, long interaction lengths are required to achieve large gain, the noise figure is poor, and the saturated output power low (e.g., 1 mW).
Like SRS, SBS can limit the power that can propagate in an optical fiber without unwanted loss or onset of lasing, but is generally only a problem for sources with narrow linewidth, i.e., comparable to the Brillouin gain linewidth.
SUMMARY
Cells use visible light in many queer ways. Here youre being introduced to how wide band semicondutors are used to create light to signal and use light to create time & sound signals in cells to allow life to happen.
Light wakes us up but it also has the power to illuminate our mind to create things from the mist of ideas. Facts alone, cannot illuminate nature’s truths, only wisdom can. Remaining coherent with truth will always illuminate the path of another soul’s journey.
Our life seems to be a series of events and accidents. Yet when most of us look back we do see a pattern to our life. One day in your life really is a microcosm of what your life has been up until that point. With reflection, you realize everything you can imagine has its own new reality if you begin to live it and give it life. There is no greater agony than carrying thoughts of an untold story inside you. What light is doing inside of you should astound you.
When you begin to sense your real heart emotions in life, you begin to sense it is never too late to be what you might have been. This introspection makes you see your heart has always had problems, which your mind could never understand. The difficulty is trying to rebuild yourself with this insight, piece by piece, with no instruction manual, and no idea as to where all the important parts of your life fit. It’s the possibility of changing who you are with your imagination that ultimately, makes life interesting.
Time is valuable in life. Use it well and you can achieve greatness. Less excuses, more results. Less distraction, more focus. Less me, more we.

Lower the mass in the SCN and the CSF that fills your ventricles. Why was sweating a key sign to follow in the Leptin Rx written 19 years ago now? When you sweat you are degrading melanin for a short term benefit. Then you need to renovate back by increasing redox by using the sun to turn on and translate POMC to make alpha MSH. https://twitter.com/DrJackKruse/status/1671199992227278858
Implications?
Eccrine sweat glands already exist at birth in humans and are widely distributed over the whole skin surface with only two exceptions: lips and glans penis. Depending on individual variation, there are 1.6–5 million sweat glands found across the human body with an average density of 200 sweat glands/cm2 ranging from 64 sweat glands/cm2 on the back to 700 sweat glands/cm2 on the palms and soles. Eccrine sweat glands are another superpower in mammals built by the POMC system that was expanded in us. Humans expanded the use of eccrine and apocrine glands compared to other primates. Apocrine glands are the breast of females used to mature our brains and is a signal to turn on the melanin renovation pathways in infants.
Dermcidin is an antimicrobial peptide expressed in eccrine sweat glands and plays a big role in innate host defense mechanisms. Eccrine sweat glands also play an important role in body temperature regulation for topologic control for melanin. These glands also secrete a fluid mainly composed of water and various ions.
32) Why do you want to rid the CSF of all the deuterium in it that is creating white matter plaques in the brain and deforming the ventricular geometry? Because water without deuterium absorbs more of the light cells need to optimize themselves.

SUMMARY
Experience directs our learning to instruct us, how one event or observation constantly follows another; without instructing us in the secret connection of the events or observations, which binds them together, and renders them inseparable. This is where wisdom is found. Today’s post exemplifies this situation perfectly.
The clock in the pineal organ, the clock in the retina (SCN), the clock in the your liver, the peripheral clocks in all the other tissues all behave differently, but they use the exact same molecular machinery. Think back to quantum biology one blog for a moment. I taught you about how biology builds a zero entropy system for perfect energy/information transfers in water and carbon nanotubes of collagen. I have not given you all the goods yet, but each blog is building up to the magic in Nature decentralization plan.
It does this by using multiple pathways to do many things at once using light as the paintbrush and quantum field action of water as the canvas. Here we see the same thing in central and peripheral clocks controls. Even before these two studies in Nature, it was clear to me from the neural network level, that the properties must have been modified by something else in the environment that affected the cell directly or indirectly using the interactions between cells in the tissue to control the process. Dr. Montaigner’s work on water and EMFs was the missing link, in my humble opinion. Light is part of the EMF spectrum. It became clear to me at least that the path of life and circadian cycle control is the domain of quantum controls that use particle and wave mathematics to be the thermostat to control the processes in cells. Life then built a complex set of biochemical and hormonal pathways to create micro nanomachines to transduce those environmental signals to control the processes of growth and metabolism in their zero entropy systems.
The key chemical to the entire equation is the use of water in cells because it is the ultimate quantum canvas for life to paint her masterpiece on. It is the perfect dipole molecule to bind to proteins to make liquid crystals function as semiconductors inside of cells. You just saw in BD how the crystals can break. The method of breakage is vast in humans. This is where diseases come from. The proxy for the breakage is always found in the heteroplasmy % of the tissue in question. Water makes protein semiconductors operate in humans. It is assistated massively by melanin to charge separate water. Doping these semiconductors with atoms makes a wide band gapped semiconductor or a narrow band gapped one. This changes their ability to do the things physiology requires of cells.
Water is life’s quantum field It does things to electrons and protons you wouldn’t normally expect, to keep life far from equilibrium. These effects are all non-linear. and often photonic. It just made fractal sense the more I dug into the science of 9 different scientific disciplines. The real problem blocking all nine from this reality is that none of them seem to know what the other is studying and finding out. They are buried in their own scientific silos. They just keep doing their own thing without sharing what they have learned and then connecting to the fabric of nature.
Today when you look back to where you began with me, and see where you are right now you’ll see how far you have come. Now you have to decide how far you want to go with me.

Today is the summer solstice and that is why this blog is being released today. More people with bipolar disorder will be admitted to ER’s in the Northern hemisphere today than any other day. Now you are going to learn why this is the case.
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a chronic and common psychiatric pathology, which can be particularly disabling. The disease has a global prevalence rate of 1–4%, begins at an early age, i.e. predominantly between 15 and 25 years old, and persists throughout the life of patients. BD is characterized by a recurrence of mood depressive episodes (pathological decrease in mood and energy), hypomanic or manic episodes (pathological increase in mood and energy), or even mixed episodes (simultaneous presence of depressive and manic symptoms).
Bipolar disorder is a common mental condition in our modern world with a seasonal pattern of onset. In the spring, there is a higher incidence rate of mania or mixed onset and suicide associated with equinox and solstice. The reason for this is a defective pruning mechanism related to the cortisol melatonin cycle in cells. The question is then what controls this pruning in us?
The pruning method of control in the brain is normally controlled by the cortisol melatonin cycle. Cortisol usually creates new pathways and melatonin trims or prunes them to suit the environment the person is in.
In bipolar disorder this system has gone awry. Remember cortisol is controlled by light via ACTH and melatonin levels are made by the mitochondrial matrix.
Explain this me like I am a 3rd grader Uncle Jack?
What if I told it was because the FM radio station evolution built into your head went awry because the manner in which it works was usurped by your light choices. Would you believe that?
The FM receiver used by Mother Nature in our brain includes a clock that measures light and cavities filled with water. It turns out that the shape of things in our head is prognostic on how good time our clocks tells. Imagine that. These two antenna use a phase locked loop system that is also used in modern FM radio receivers in our car. Can you believe that? Because of its usefulness, the phase locked loop is found in many wireless, radio, and general electronic items from mobile phones to broadcast radios, televisions to Wi-Fi routers, walkie talkie radios to professional communications systems and very much more.
Mother Nature built this FM radio station in the nervous system over 3 billion years ago. This is why brain’s first became important. Their original purpose was to inform cells of the seasonal connection between the sun and Earth. In turn, this data could be made useful to direct biological changes. This is how light changes biochemistry inside of us. This is how we know it is summer time. In bipolar disorder this system is awry when it is encumbered by too much mass in the antennae of the system.
What bends space/time in the universe? The masses associated with the matter in the universe does. Anything that has more mass than the smallest atomused inside of our molecular clocks changes how we experience time. Mass bends space/time! Now ask yourself what do magnetic fields do to space-time?
Magnetic fields tend to flatten and stiffen the fabric of space-time when masses are added to them and this alters our perception of seasons.
The circadian activity generated in the SCN clock of the eye needs to be transmitted to the rest of the brain in some way. It seems like the clock timing tract splits into two wires and informs the brain of what season it is. In Bipolar Disorder this is impossible because the in the eye clock is usually where the defect lies. That defect in the antenna ruins the fidelity of the system and our brain cannot tell where the Earth and sun are in relation to one another. Pretty remarkable gadget Nature built in our head. It appears the excess mass in the antenna screws up the connection of the FM radio station. Without a proper connection, the fidelity of the music coming from system fails. That is what bipolar disease is to a metronome. Can you believe that? My friend the metronome says it’s all true because of the physics of clock timing. It is apparently thrown off when we have too much weight (mass) in our clocks. Does something to the fabric of space time to deform magnetic fields. Wild decentralized stuff I tell you.
3rd grade bipolar lesson is over.
BACK TO THE SCIENTIFIC EXPLANATION OF BIPOLAR DISEASE
These thymic episodes the bipolar patient experiences are interspersed with phases of clinical remission, known as “euthymic” episodes. The disease is associated with a high morbidity and mortality rate and due to the significant functional impact it induces, including during euthymic periods, BD is the cause of poor quality of life and is one of the ten most disabling diseases according to the World Health Organization. The diagnosis of BD is mainly clinical and can be supported using scales or questionnaires. The diagnostic delay is estimated at around 10 years. This delay is clearly related to the heterogeneity of the clinical expression of the disease. The phenotype of the disease is relative because how patients experience time is relative to the environment they inhabit.
The study of the literature shows that this delay in treatment seriously affects the prognosis, particularly on the functional level, and constitutes a major public health problem. In addition, there are no good biomarkers, easily usable in current practice, to help the clinical decision for the diagnosis or for predicting the course or prognosis of the disease. One thing is known about bipolar people. Many of them have the same changes in their eye as diabetics. They also tend to get metabolic syndrome in the guts more frequently than any other mental illness as is documented in the cites below. They tend to have pale skin in their thoracic and lumbar regions as well.
WHY ARE SLEEP DISORDERS ALWAYS LINKED TO THIS DISEASE?
Sleep disturbances and sleep/wake rhythms are major in BD. These disturbances are observed during the different phases of the disease and are major symptoms of mood episodes and belong to the diagnostic criteria for depression, hypomania, and mania. In addition, these anomalies are also found during the euthymic phases of this disease. Indeed, patients suffering from BD would be more likely to present a more evening chronotype and a more languid and rigid circadian type than healthy subjects as well as a decrease in the efficiency of their sleep, an increase in sleep duration, an increased sleep latency and a prolongation of the duration of awakenings after the onset of sleep. These disturbances in sleep and wake/sleep rhythms are associated, among other things, with more frequent relapses, an alteration in the quality of life, and cognitive disorders.
Additionally, neurocognitive deficits are frequently associated with BD. Most typical deteriorations found are impairment of episodic verbal memory, executive functions, processing speed, and sustained attention. These troubles can be present during mood episodes but also in around 30% of patients during euthymic phases. Cognitive deficits of patients with BD have a direct impact on their psychosocial functioning, on the risk of relapse, on treatment adherence, or even on their ability to insight. Their early detection associated with the identification of prognostic and predictive biomarkers of the response to cognitive and functional remediation tools is essential in order to be able to offer early and appropriate treatment.
Due to its embryological origin, the retina is an integral part of the central nervous system. The retina is a complex neural tissue (above in a BD patient), consisting of several layers of retinal neurons. They have structural and functional properties similar to cerebral neurons. You’ve seen this laid out in detail in this series. In addition, molecules involved in brain neurotransmission such as dopamine, serotonin, glutamate, or GABA, are also involved in retinal neurotransmission. The retina is now considered a relevant candidate for the study of neurotransmission abnormalities in neuropsychiatric pathologies. The function of retinal neurons can be measured using the OCT (below) or the electroretinogram (ERG).
ERG is a simple, fast, inexpensive, and non-invasive process that aims to measure the electrical activity of retinal neurons in response to light stimulation and provides indicators of synaptic transmission. This technique can represent an important electrophysiological measurement in biomarker research within psychiatric diseases. However, studies evaluating retinal function with ERG in BD are very few today. I think in the future In addition to the electrophysiological anomalies mentioned above, structural anomalies at the retinal level have been described. Indeed, several studies carried out in optical coherence tomography (OCT) have shown that subjects with BD present a thinning of the layers of retinal neurons. Additionally, results also seem to suggest that retinal thinning in the periphery of the retina where melanopsin is located may be related to disease progression. People with bipolar disease are equisitely sensitive to light it appears. This is what makes them different.
As previously described elsewhere on Patreon, retinal neurons and cortical neurons have similar properties. It should be noted that measurements of retinal function with ERG and measurements of cortical function with visual evoked potentials (VEP) share the same characteristics. Indeed, both can be performed using light flash stimulation and using luminous black-and white reversing checkerboard (pattern stimulation). In addition, they are complementary measures for the analysis of dysfunctions of the central visual pathways. Thus, the combined study of VEP using EEG could be relevant and complementary to ERG for a study of all visual neural pathways in neuropsychiatric pathologies in the future. I think OCT shows these changes when clinicians think to order them in bipolar patients. This is going to be how centralized medicine slowly decentralizes in my opinion as these tests reveal the quantum mechanical changes that occur in the antennae of the phased loop signaling you are about to learn about in this blog.
BIPOLAR DISEASES AND LITHIUM & METABOLIC SYNDROME
Lithium is the most common drug used to treat bipolar disorder. Overall, compared to placebo, lithium appears to decrease the risk of suicide by more than 60% in bipolar disorder.
Blue light increases blood glucose and insulin from POMC cleavage of ACTH and CLIP. Did you know that people with newly diagnosed bipolar disorder are 3.5 times more likely to have metabolic syndrome? What is the connection? Abnormal light in their environment is the link. Metabolic syndrome changes how the gut works with the brain because of changes in the SCN and the CSF that surrounds the thalamus. It is most often seen in those who live an indoor existence while bathing themselves in blue light and nnEMF. The best way to avoid all mental illness is to remain in the sun and remain in the dark when the sun sets. It is not that hard when you understand how light changes the topology of the eye, skin, and gut. When you bathe in light at night or day mental illness and a sleep disorder will find you eventually in some way.
ISOTOPIC LESSON ON LITHIUM: DEEP PHYSICS
Lithium drugs are widely used for treating bipolar disorder. They work, but nobody really knows how they work in cells. I think I might. How might a mitochondriac attack this problem? How about by mito-hacking the periodic table of elements yet again?
Consider the link between size discrepancy and the proton spin crisis between B-meson and protons. B-mesons are approximately 2/3 the size of protons and each of the quarks that make them up have a spin of 1/2. Protons do not follow the expected spin predictions that mesons have given us. Why would lithium be linked to this proton story? Remember that mitochondria in neurons deal with protons and B-mesons in the mitochondrial matrix as I laid out in my April 2016 webinar on this topic. Those details are not important here but the size difference of the atoms is.
Might lithium’s effects somehow be due to the quantum effects of the size variation of isotopes found in the matrix in the SCN and the leptin melanocortin pathways in some areas as it travels through the brain?
You do know that different isotopes of elements have different nuclear spins, right? People who listened to my Kruse for Dummies lecture should now fully understand why lithium works in bipolar disorder and why it can help reverse some of their Metabolic syndrome effects. Lithium alters the binary code of life because it has spin number that mimics one fo the atoms used in the binary code.
Guess why a mitochondrion favors protium (H+) over deuterium (D)? Atomic mass is the answer.
Might isotopic effects cause some quantum change in a material or a receiver built into our system? Might the size variation of isotopes found in the blood be linked by Nature to make circulating blood act differently than water in other parts of our body? LINK TO THE LECTURE
IS BIPOLAR DISEASE REALLY AN ALTERED SIMULATION OF REALITY DUE TO ISOTOPE VARIATION IN NEURONS?
Deuterium is an isotope with spin = 1, unlike hydrogen-1, which has spin = 1/2.
Photons (particles of light) can have a spin of –1 or +1.
Why can’t photons have 0 spins?
The definition of the spin as the angular momentum of a particle at rest is also inapplicable to the photon since there is no rest frame for the photon, which moves at the speed of light. Light never rests or stands still once it is liberated from matter.
What bends space/time? Mass does. Since Deuterium has more mass than H+ it bends space/time more than protium. Now ask yourself what do magnetic fields do to space-time?
By reanalyzing the basic equations of general relativity, a researcher has discovered that magnetic fields tend to flatten and stiffen the fabric of space-time when masses are added to them.
How does this affect the circuit between the sun, earth, and the human brain?
It should immediately raise a question about this solar circuit in bipolar patients. Daytime has strong electric fields associated with sunlight. Nighttime has little.
Does a strong electric field cause time dilation in the SCN and the tracts linked to it in the mammalian brain to cause bipolar disorder?
The spacetime curvature for a charged static spherical body is given by the Reissner–Nordström metric:
With these mathematics, you can feed in the value of whatever charge you want and calculate the time dilation as a function of distance from the charged body. If you do this you’ll discover something rather odd in Einstein’s field equations, namely, the charge reverses the effect of the mass.
Do you remember how many times I have told you in podcasts that redox potential is the net negative charge in a cell? Do you see now how that charge can offset the bad isotopic variation in some of your tissues to make your clocks work better in the circuit that tells the brain what season it is? Remember sunlight deuterium depletes us. Light at night adds deuterium to our tissues. This ruins our clock function.
Is this why mammals conserve charge using their POMC biology in their cells Uncle Jack to offset this deuterium problem? Yep. The excess mass of heavier isotopes in cells and mitochondria causes time to slow (relative to the observer at infinity) but adding charges back to proteins/water (of either sign) can make the time speed up again.
Wait a minute Dr. Kruse, explain that again.
The sun creates massive electric fields during daylight. Implications for Bipolar Disorder?
Does a strong electric field cause time dilation in the universe? Yes, it does because a strong electric field generated by the sun adds a massive net negative charge to cells that absorb this radiation. POMC makes sure this happens in the human brain via Noether’s thereom.
This is true because the mathematics of physics says it operates this way.
It appears this is what really causes Bipolar disorder at its fundamental core.
TYING IT BACK TO MY THESIS OF THIS SERIES
The adrenal medulla of mammals was born under the light stress of the KT event. This is why I wrote the adrenal fatigue blog years ago but no one saw things back then like they do now. I told the implications of that Huberman/Rubin podcast were VAST. Bipolar disorder is one of the effects.
Man’s five senses can capture the vastness and the immensity of our cosmos and POMC is the paintbrush that allows it. POMC is the paint that goes on the canvas, your brain. POMC is a color palate that humans use to paint their mind. In some ways, that palate confines us to the limited real estate of the sensory organs in our brains to understand all the complexity of the universe. All 5 senses tract directly to the thalamus of humans that surrounds the 3rd ventricle of their brains. But there is a wisdom in being connected to nature in this fashion. Yet, few see the artistic symmetry of confinement. I am trying to explain this art to you now every day, in every word I write in everyone of these blogs. It is time for you to LEVER UP your knowledge.
THE LEVER UP LESSON: The adrenal cortex synthesizes three main groups of hormones (glucocorticoids, mineralocorticoids, and adrenal androgens) (Auchus and Miller, 2001). The homeostasis of glucocorticoids is regulated by a feedback mechanism CONTROLLED BY POMC gene translation via solar light and temperature sensors (non-visual photoreceptors) in the skin, eye, and autonomic nervous systems that are relayed to and through the hypothalamic POMC center and the circumventricular organs (water networks in the ventricular system of the brain) by means of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH), the pituitary gland by ACTH, and the adrenal cortex by cortisol (Koch, 2004).
The mammalian cell responds to all stress, including light stress, by increasing cholesterol production.
Cholesterol is the MAIN non visual photoreceptor of the brain. If you go into an ICU with a patient with an acute infection and draw their lipids (not often done except by a tool like me) you will find sky-high LDL cholesterol.
And that is both LDL and HDL, but the LDL fraction is much higher. Is that a problem? No. But Big Pharma has trained centralized MDs to reflexively reach for the Rx pad to write for a statin. This is why so many people with Bipolar disorder also have metabolic syndrome as a comorbidity as well. Their LDL is high because they are all solar deficient. Remember LDL cholesterol lacks electrons realtive to HDL cholesterol.
The other non visual photoreceptor in the brain that is common is melanopsin and it is found in the blood vessels. With blue light at night it increases blood flow and increases blood pressure excessively. High blood pressure is part of metabolic syndrome.
Few MDs & psychiatrists today are trained to even know full spectrum sunlight lowers cholesterol naturally. Even fewer realize sunlight is the best treatment option for Bipolar disorder. Blue light at night makes this disease deadly.
In fact, in metabolic syndrome, higher LDL cholesterol stabilizes the inner mitochondrial membrane function during heavy oxidative phosphorylation (cellular energy production). So a raised LDL actually helps mitochondria retain its electric charge to condense H+ inside the mitochondrial matrix to make energy using the light hydrogen isotope.
This is how the cell controls space time and magnetic fields inside of their tissues to ACCURATELY SIMULATE THE PHYSICS OF YOUR ENVIRONMENT.
In bipolar disorder, this is a broken mechanism at the level of the SCN because there are atoms in it with higher masses than their should be. (D>H+)
Do you know what sits really close to the outer mitochondrial membrane in most mammalian cells?
POMC waiting to create melanin from the biophotons released from the mitochondria right next to it. Making CO2 and DDW is the reason our cells stole bacteria 600 million years ago. And since the cell is trying to recover from a light stressor, it needs a good inner mitochondrial membrane in which to transfer its electrons to oxygen and use the H+ liberated by melanin buried in water to make ATP by the spinning ATPase Fo head.
When the deuterium isotopic variation mechanism is broken in the SCN, lithium can be used to help offset that loss in the CSF networks in the ventricular system of the brain. Effectively, lithium is adding mass to the water of CSF to offset the deuterium in the SCN to allow it act as a better FM radio antenna to tell the season for the brain.
That is why lithium can help some of these people.
The problem with lithium is that it can never reverse the disease. Only strict sun exposure and darkness at night can repair the broken mechanism at the SCN level to help eradicate this disease in humans. When the SCN is loaded with too much deuterium, as such, it cannot accurately tell time.
The isotopic variation changes as their choices in light vary leading to mania and depression cycles in things the ipRGCs link directly to. Note the positioning of the habenular nucleus in the next two pictures and you’ll see the circuit manifest before your eyes.
What controls the autonomic nervous system in the gut of mammals that get metabolic syndrome?
NEUROANATOMY LESSON TIME: POMC does because it is found in high concentration normally in the outflow tracts of the neurons from the hypothalamus that connect to the gut. This connection is made via the dorsal longitudinal fasciculus. That tract targets the thoracic nerves that connect to somites where other melanin stores are located from the neural crest. Remember before when I told you bipolar people tend to have pale trunks and abdomenal skin? Now you know why this link is important. These dermatomal layers need melanin renovation in BD.
When I see a patient with BD I always examine their skin in these areas before I order an MRI (above). Why? Pale skin in these areas always corelate to white matter lesions in their brain (shown above). Centralized science is still clueless why this is the case. You no longer will be. This is decentralized medicine 101. White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are much more common in subjects with bipolar disorder (BP) than in healthy subjects. The more prominent that lesion or the larger their ventricles tells me how severe their disease is. LINK I have also observed that paleness of the skin in these areas also corelates with thicken of the choroid on OCT images of the retina and with changes in the inferior nasal retina on my eye exams.
The hypothalamus is the key brain site for central control of the autonomic nervous system, and the paraventricular nucleus is the key hypothalamic site for this control. Much of the medial surface of the thalamus and hypothalamus form the wall of the third ventricle pictured above.Part of the hypothalamus forms its floor. Its thin, membranous roof contains the choroid plexus that makes cerebrospinal fluid which is 99.8% water. The third ventricle narrows quickly at the posterior end of the mammillary bodies. These bodies are the key to memory formation and important in dreaming. Anatomically, the PVN is adjacent to the third ventricle and many of its neurons project to the posterior pituitary. These projecting neurons secrete oxytocin and a smaller amount of vasopressin, otherwise the nucleus also secretes corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH).
Recall my Brain Gut #16 blog told you that the PVN is where adrenal fatigue began. It is a light disease that turns off POMC in the hypothalamus and not a real adrenal disease.
The PVM neurons massively express POMC but without UV light this switch never gets turned on. Bipolar patients are all lacking that critical UV light switch. The major pathway from the hypothalamus for autonomic control is the dorsal longitudinal fasciculus in the human brain. Below is another picture of the third ventricle (red box) that is adjacent to the hypothalamus and thalamus in humans.
The dorsal longitudinal fasciculus (fasciculus of Schutz) is a periaqueductal (area around ventricular system Aq above) ascending and descending fiber system arising from the hypothalamus and terminating to the autonomic nuclei of the pons and the medulla, conveying autonomic fibers from the brain to the gut in humans. It also conveys pain and is important in sleep pathways of humans. These are usually altered in bipolar patients as well because of a lack of melanin in these areas.
The dorsal longitudinal fasciculus is found within the dorsal brainstem tegmentum. It passes through the periaqueductal gray matter and contains both ascending and descending fibers. The ascending fibers pass from the reticular formation (sleep region/insomnia) passing to the hypothalamus thus transmitting information related to the viscera.
People who travel a lot across time zones or people who use a lot of blue light or nnEMF in their cities are going to have massive sleep disturbances like people with mental disorders because they have broken the same rules of Nature. I view insomnia as a mental disorder in decentralized medicine.
This surface is acritical in barrier in the brain health of humans. This is the pathway where metabolic syndrome, poor sleep, and fatty liver all come from. Many of these same findings are found in diabetics, bipolar disorder, and those with sleep disorders like insomnia. Patients with bipolar disorder tend to have all these symptoms at times that vary based on how defective their FM antennae are.
This explains how a lack of sunlight leads to most gut and sleep issues modern humans face. Without proper DLF input to the gut via the brainstem, ferroelectric currents are lost and circadian control of the gut lumen is awry. This opens the gut barrier to many potential problems.
Pro-opiomelanocortin co-localizes with corticotropin-releasing factor in axon terminals of the noradrenergic nucleus locus coeruleus. It is not just a PVN sotry folks. Where the problems lies will determine aspects of the disease you get. This nucleus is filled with neuromelanin. The locus coeruleus (LC), a small brainstem nucleus, is the primary source of the neuromodulator norepinephrine (NE) in the brain. The LC receives input from widespread brain regions, especially the hypothalamus and projects throughout the forebrain, brainstem, cerebellum, and spinal cord.
What is the main function of locus coeruleus?
It is the brain’s main source of the neurotransmitter noradrenaline (norepinephrine). This chemical is excitatory and is released in response to pain or stress, stimulating what is referred to as the ‘fight-or-flight’ mechanism. This means that it activates the sympathetic nervous system via those thoracic nerves I mentioned above. Those are the same nerves that innervate your brown fat and also give input to the superior cervical ganglia that I mentioned in Time 12. Without UV light exposure in the eye and skin in these dermatomes melanin is degraded and noradrenaline is diminished. You remember that nor adrenalin can be made from melanin right? See the slide below far right top line.
Neuropsin is a 380 nm light sensor that the locus coeruleus needs to function well.
Without this system operational, this opens the BBB and the gut barriers. We see this in most psychiatric cases and in TBI cases due to the stress response. Now you can see why really the brain-gut barrier is linked. Usually, there is a lack of melanin in the DLF and/or the locus coeruleus to create the aura of brain-gut barrier when in reality what links the two is a lack of UV light to stimulate POMC in both hypothalamic pathways and melanin is degraded leading to many disease phenotypes. Each somite in the spinal cord also has POMC in it derived from the neural crest in this part of the body. For the gut this is linked to the celiac ganglion which comes from T5 -T11 thoracic nerves. So thoracic level solar exposure is key to renovating gut level melanin. It is counterintuitive until you see it all laid out in front of you. A lot of this deep science would have been the Vermont 2019 video I was going to give 4 years ago. I think I still might do it for the Kruse for Dummies folks.
SUMMARY
Neil Cherry PhD from New Zealand showed in 2002 that there is strong and robust scientific evidence of the human brain detects and responds to the Schumann Resonance signal based on the work of many researchers Robert O. Becker worked with in the 1970s. People with bipolar disorder cannot connect well with the Schumann resonance because of excess mass contained within the receivers of the signal which comes from the sun and Earth. As a result this leads to behavioral and neurologic dysfunction. Since increased mass of isotopes used in this system affects coherence times that are possible in cells, they lose their ability to maintain quantum coherence and the system becomes dysfunctional. How long a system can maintain coherence is a function of the atomic mass in that system. You can see now why any additional masses in the SCN or habenular nucleus destroy this realtionship. The pictures below shows the specific details of the pathogy laid out for you.
The brain uses a range of frequency patterns monitored by the EEG system in our neurosurgical clinics. The frequency range of the EEG rhythms coincide with the frequency range of Schumann Resonance signal (0–45Hz). The alpha wave is identical to the frequency most commonly linked with Schumann resonace on Earth. The normal brain has developed an ELF oscillating ion system, primarily using calcium ions (above), to control neurotransmitter release. The release is awry in BD. Dr. Russ Adey at UCLA established this in the 1970s. Adey work is cited below. The human brain and its optical clock lattice in the SCN is now well established in the literature. Blackman’s work on calcium ion resonace frequencies was cited multiple times in Becker’s books and my early blogs on the non ionizing effects of nnEMF and neurological compromise. Blackman’s research also cited below, has taught decentralized MDs that external electromagnetic ELF signals induce altered neuron calcium ion effluxes in mitochondria of brain tissue.
These ELF signals between the sun and Earth are weak, yet they match the ultraweak UV biophotons that cells create in response to the Schumann extraterrestrial signal. This allows the brain to know the season. The stable synchronization of the brain’s electromagnetic systems using a system that mimicks an FM radio has actually led to humans becoming thinking, emotional, memory machines of biology that are capable of quite a bit of intelligence in the human central nervous system. In order to carry out these functions the brain has developed electromagnetic transmitters and receivers in the neurons to accomplish this task in the SCN, leptin melanocortin pathway that extends into the thalamus of man and into his spinal cord. The thalamus is where the alpha wave finds its genesis in humans. This connection is pictured below.
The receivers used by Mother Nature in the human brain included a phase locked loop system, described by Ahissar et al. This paper is cited below. The phase locked loop system is also used in modern FM radio receivers in your car. In the human brain it provides an FM radio receiver that non-linearly resonantly interacts with the Schumann Resonance signal. The phase locked loop or PLL is a particularly useful circuit block that is widely used in radio frequency or wireless applications in tech gear. In view of its usefulness, the phase locked loop or PLL is found in many wireless, radio, and general electronic items from mobile phones to broadcast radios, televisions to Wi-Fi routers, walkie talkie radios to professional communications systems and very much more.
Mother Nature built this system over 3 billion years ago in the brain’s of living systems to inform cells of the seasonal connection between the sun and Earth so this data could be useful for biological changes. In bipolar disorder this system is awry when it is encumbered by too much mass in the recievers.
The circadian activity generated in the SCN needs to be transmitted to the rest of the brain and henceforth to the rest of the body via non-optical signaling to stay well. In Bipolar Disorder this is impossible because the SCN is where the defect lies. That receiver is not receptive to the Schumann’s information. Coherent connection ruins the fidelity of the system. Most of the centralized science right now believes it is through direct wiring tracts. I do not. I think it is via the hydrogen bonding network in water through the areas where there is no blood-brain barrier in the brain that provides the fidelity of the phased locked loop. This allows electron and proton tunneling and quantum coherence to allow for rapid communication in the system. I believe all biological processes in any living organism are due to the creation of biological biophotons in the ultraweak VUV-IR-A range. Light can dictate highly selective and specific electromagnetic interactions between particular biomolecules because of changes in mass or the magnetic moments of the component boxcars of biochemistry. In most cases, these interactions involve and are driven by semiconductive proteins surrounded by water, which act as logic gates do in the system of organization seen in solid-state physics.
The human brain SCN contains the key mechanism to having a strong diurnal pattern that assists the sun to maintain the circadian rhythm. The Schumann Resonance signal continuously synchronizes the brain wave ELF patterns in a set range of grouped frequencies that begin in the thalamus that surrounds the 3rd ventricle of the brain. The ventricular system also acts a resonant cavity on Earth to receive the signals. The hydrogen bonding network in CSF is another receiver in the phased locked loop communication system mentioned above. This stabilizes the brain’s electromagnetic system of communication and its fidelity has enabled intelligence and stable thinking to evolve to the point where this complex understanding of the biophysical environment interacting with the human brain can be reasoned, understood, and appreciated.
DNA only codes for the key backbone proteins that will become the main conductors of any life process within the organism. The mitochondrial matrix created the other part (water hydrogen bonding network) of this semiconductive backbone in cells to surround the protein. Both parts of the semiconductor have to be operational to simulate time from your environment at the level of the SCN. Everyone focuses on refraction errors in the eyes. Few spend time understanding how the eye clock really operates at a quantum mechanical level with the Schumann frequency. This is why psychiatry remains impotent to help reverse this disease.
Let’s review the lessons from 100’s of my blogs now in relation to this disease.
A. Hydrogen bonds form between water molecules, giving rise to supramolecular aggregates/clusters/coherent domains. Some call this EZ water. The clustering of water is a cooperative phenomenon, which means that forming one hydrogen immediately favors the formation of several other hydrogen bonds, and vice versa, breaking one bond leads to breaking up a whole cluster. Thus clusters are dynamic flickering networks with lifetimes of 10^- 11 to 10^-10 seconds. Light changes those hydrogen bonding networks by moving charges around. https://phys.org/news/2022-10-revolutionary-technique-hydrogen-efficiently.html
B. Hydrogen bonds are the key to coherence in cells. Hydrogen bonds act like a spec of dust in the formation of snow, ice, or crystals.
How do coherent excitations make the system sensitive to specific, weak signals? Such a weak signal will be received by the system only when the system is ‘in tune’ — rather like a very sensitive FM radio receiver, which can resonate to the signal. Furthermore, a small signal will be greatly amplified for it will not only affect one molecule, but because many other molecules are in the same state of readiness, they too, will be affected in the same way, and the signal is correspondingly multiplied as many times as there are molecules responding to it.
The shape of your ventricular system which is filled with H+/D is another clue for me that the receiver system is broken.
The hydrogen bonds in water have a critical point at which they change and act like dust. When enough energy is pumped in bond angles change and this makes water liquid crystalline and a better antenna to receive signals of what season it really is. People bipolar disorder have bad antennas.
More lessons from old blogs you need to recall now to understand Bipolar:
C. Sunlight creates electric fields in our atmosphere every day and that sunlight creates a Coulomb force in our body. Coulomb force is an electrostatic force. Electrostatic phenomena arise from the forces that electric charges exert on each other. Such forces are described by Coulomb’s law. Even though electrostatically induced forces seem to be rather weak because of how we experience them in life, when the scale shrinks, as it does in a cell, the electrostatic force increases tremendously in strength as the scale drops. Scale drops = less mass present
D. For example, some electrostatic forces such as the one between an electron and a proton, that together make up a hydrogenatom, are about 36 orders of magnitude stronger than the gravitational force acting between them. The electrostatic force generated in your skin is another example of a strong electrostatic force because the skin, as an insulator can hold large amounts of charge from the sun if it is normal. It is not in bipolar disorder.
E. Modern physics now has proven that energy and information are equivalent in physics. Landauer’s Principle of 1961 & Shannon’s 1948 work was critical in making this linkage. Modern quantum biology has experimentally proven that energy is trapped directly at the electronic level in cells. Energy is stored not only as vibrational and electronic bond energies in biochemicals, but also in the structure of the system: its membranes, and in gradients, fields and flow patterns, compartments, organelles, cell water, and tissues. All this in turn enables organisms to mobilize their energies coherently at any time it is needed and hence make available the entire spectrum of stored energies for physiological work. It is energy on demand by atomic design.
F. What is the bandwidth of the entire electromagnetic spectrum of light? The electromagnetic spectrum starts from wavelengths of 10^-14 m at one extreme to 10^8 m at the other, spanning a range of 10^22. In terms of doublings, 10^22 ≈ 273, or 73 octaves. Visible light is a small fraction of this bandwidth but that bandwidth does very specific things that cells take full advantage of.
Light is an EMF. Sunlight (visible light) is a very specific EMF that interacts with specificity for atoms in cells. That specificity is created because the EMF selects the type of water created by the dissipative system. This DDW water surrounds the atomic lattice inside cells whose integrity is maintained by the nuclear genome blueprint. The atomic arrangement in cells also allows for light absorption and light emission. The light that cells emit is also quite specific. It is an ultraweak extreme low-frequency biophoton that spans the visible spectrum frequencies. This is the light that is used for optical signaling and it drives the molecular resonances that drive the internal motions of biochemicals in cells. Light drives biochemistry. Biochemistry does not drive light.
Conventional centralized biochemists do not understand these nuances of what biophotons are and how they are created by EMFs, water, and oxygen in cells. So You should not expect centralized physicians (psychiatrist) to get this nuance either.
G. Claude Shannon taught the world that information flows via entropy. All clocks should be thought of as flowmeters for entry. This includes the biological circadian clocks in cells. Wheeler taught physics that information and energy are one and the same thing. Shannon’s mathematics from his 1948 paper advanced the linkage of entropy and information. Shannon’s paper also told us anything can be a message. (Kruse for Dummies lecture) H+ and electrons are fermions. Deuterium is a boson and this small difference can ruin how an FM antenna works.
I believe sunlight messages for mitochondrial DNA and nuclear are controlled by “fermion messaging” (pic above from old blogs). DNA is informed about what to do with optical information from the sun via mtDNA signaling (optical and free radical) and this message is transmitted over water’s hydrogen bonds adjacent to proteins in a cell. DNA is a very complex topologic insulator that is an antenna for our star’s information.
H. Water makes up 99% of molecules in every cell and it fills the ventricles of our brain. Water is a very small molecule that has more hydrogen bonds in it than any other compound. Liquid water contains the densest hydrogen bonding of any solvent, with almost as many hydrogen bonds as there are covalent bonds and hydrogen bonds in its structure found anywhere on Earth. These two bonding networks are the binary code in water. Just as a computer can use a 1 and 0 to create digital information on the internet, hydrogen bonds create the internet in your cells. Shannon taught us the information content of any kind of message could be measured in binary digits or just bits. This was the basis of the Kruse for Dummies talk.
I. Water’s hydrogen bond network changes at a pico and femtosecond level in any environment. Inside a cell, its atomic arrangement is controlled by electrostatic forces in a cell created by the redox power of the mitochondria in that cell. These hydrogen bonds can rapidly rearrange in response to, light frequencies, charge density, and changing conditions and environments (for example, solutes like K+ in a cell). This is how our ventricles tell seasons in us. When the FM system is bad you cannot tell seasons and bipolar disorder is the result.
J. Shannon demonstrated, contrary to what was commonly believed in the 1940s, that engineers could beat their worst enemy ever: transmission errors-or in their technical jargon, “noise.” Noise is anything that disturbs communication. Your FM radio antenna does not work when there is noise in the system. It can be an electric signal in a telephone wire that causes crosstalk in an adjacent wire, a thunderstorm static that perturbs TV signals distorting the image on the screen, or a failure in network noise to increase the energy of the transmission signals or send the same message repeatedly-much as when, in a crowded pub, you have to shout for a beer several times. Shannon showed a better way to avoid errors without wasting so much energy and time: coding. Nature does the same thing.
She takes the message in the hydrogen bonding network of water that surrounds every protein and encodes that information in fermionic code in mRNA, mtDNA, RNA, tRNA, and DNA. Deuterium is a BOSON. It ruins the fermionic signal and that CAUSES bipolar disorder.
DO YOU GET IT YET?
K. Coding is at the heart of information theory. All communication processes need some sort of coding to limit the noise and create a high-fidelity signal that doesn’t degrade. Bipolar disorder is due to tissues in our FM radio station in our head having too much mass in them. Water preserves the information and transfers it to nucleic acids via hydrogen bonds. Just as the telephone system transforms the spoken voice into electrical signals. In Morse code, letters are transmitted with combinations of dots and dashes. The DNA molecule specifies a protein’s structure with four types of genetic bases. Digital communication systems use bits to represent or encoded information. Each letter of the alphabet, for example, can be represented with a group of bits, a sequence of zeroes, and ones. You can assign any number of bits to each letter and arrange the bits in any way you want. In other words, you can create as many codes as desired. Cells have done this to run life’s program. The more mass a tissue has the less time it can remain quantum coherent to transfer information in any system.
All of these lettered lessons above ^^^^^ have been published in my blogs or forum for years. Please ASSIMILATE THEM NOW.
This blog was easy to write because piece and parts of it are in hundreds of other blogs.
The emission and absorption spectra of proteins can be used to make predictions of what light frequencies will couple with proteins and the matrix to create DDW water. The logic in the system of operation can only be comprehended when you understand how the subatomic parts of nature are able to be used and manipulated by quantum mechanical abilities. I told you a long time ago, in the Cold Thermogenesis series, that the default state of life was sleep. Then as evolution progressed with evolved wakefulness. This idea was counterintuitive to many at the time. The reason for my prediction was simple. I read Feynman’s 1982 paper on a computer simulating the physics of the environment and thought to myself what organ in humans fit his description of an ability to simulate the physics of Nature? The SCN fit perfectly.
The SCN filled with deuterium and your CSF overhwelmed by deuterium is where bipolar disease comes from. Patients with Bipolar Disorder also have a higher risk associated with retinal detachment, primary retinopathy, diabetes retinopathy, hypertensive retinopathy, and retinal vascular complications than the controls. Now you all know why this blog came after the last one.
Please re-read QE # 44-47 again. The concepts are there to explain this disease and all sleep disorders. The last blog was on diabetic retinopathy. Those patients also always have features of metabolic syndrome. So do most mental disorders and sleep disorders. Now you can see why they are all linked. You have effectively broken the FM antenna station nature put inside your skull. If you have insomnia, (yes, Sam this is for you) part of your system in the periaqueductal grey area is broken in your brain because you loaded this area up with deuterium by using Netflix too often while travelling outside your time zone to omuch for your brain, and you decided to live in Chicago with all its associated nnEMF and population density. It should be obvious why you cannot sleep with these circumstances, no?
What I am explaining to you now is where in the topological map of the human brain the POMC deficit is located leads to the phenotype of the disease we see in our clinics. Patients with this disorder intuitively know they need more sun. How they go about it is often incorrect as you see in cite 4 below.
Understanding the human eye and retina and linking it to entropy in a cell was the only quantum leap I made to understand this concept. The flow of entropy is why I made this prediction back in 2010. All molecular clocks are flow meters for entropy. I knew the SCN had to be doing something unusual with the retina and the brain during sleep. The SCN appears to be a perpetual motion machine built into the brain. Feynman wrote a paper in 1982 stating he believed a quantum computer could simulate physics if it used a time crystal.
The SCN is a small computer in your eye that is simulating the physics of the environment between the sun and Earth to make the best predictions for cells in tissues. In bipolar disease that time crystal is not working well because the mass inside of it put there by the light you allow ruins it. Adding mass back to the water networks, using lithium is how lithium operates.
The problem is the system fidelity operates at quantum mechanical precision with respect to mass and this is why results are so uneven in patients with this disease.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a well-recognized microvascular complication of diabetes. What is not well recognized is that light stress release of ACTH from POMc and CLIP is the main driver of the disease. Blue light is a nnEMF that causes diabetic neuropathy. It causes many other diseases as well.
Growing evidence suggests that, in addition to retinal vascular damage, there is significant damage to retinal neural tissue in diabetic retinopathy. This is especially true in the RPE melanin sheets which have many functions in the eye.
OCT IS USED TO VISUALIZE THE RPE IN RETINAL SCANS:VIDEO
Studies have revealed neuronal damage before clinically evident vascular lesions and this alone should have gotten researchers to realize that light into the eye and not food is the key driver of these diseases. Centralized medicine now classifies DR as a neurovascular complication. ACTH release drives blood sugar and insulin higher. Hyperglycemia from ACTH actually turns off the cleavage of alpha-MSH, Beta-MSH, and gamma-MSH. This lowers the dopamine level in the eye via hypoxia and elongates the globe to cause myopia. What else might it cause? The blog has many new diseases linked to this mechanism. The last blog showed you how autism was linked to it.
In contrast to skin melanin, which is constantly synthesized by the epidermal melanocytes, it is currently believed that melanin in the RPE does not regenerate I no longer believe this is true. Melanin is known to function as a potential radical scavenger and photoprotective agent. It also scavengers metal ions when photoreceptors are destroyed by the action of seeing using sunlight. The retina had to be built a certain way to compensate for this ability. What are the implications of Nature’s design in the retina with respect to modern disease creation?
The neural retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) diverge from the optic vesicle during early embryonic development. The optic vesicle forms as an evagination from the diencephalon. They originate from different portions of the optic vesicle, the more distal part developing as the neural retina and the proximal part as RPE.
I believe they retain their neuroplasticity and today’s textbooks are wrong. So when the RPE is damaged their connection will be in the diencephalon before there is radiation into the cerebral hemispheres. I believe this is where the defect begins in autism during neurulation. I also think this is where blood disorders like Hemophilia, von Willebrand’s disease, and Von Hippau Lindau’s disease arise as well.
Wait, what?
So when retinal changes are present during my exam I am always interested in an MRI of the brain in the diencephalon as the next step in my own work-up because I am looking for things no one else looks for. The diencephalon is the region of the embryonic vertebrate neural tube that gives rise to anterior forebrain structures including the thalamus, hypothalamus, posterior portion of the pituitary gland, and pineal gland. The diencephalon also encloses the third ventricle. Below in the center picture, you will see a massively enlarged 3rd ventricle in someone with non-visual photoreceptor problem that began in their retina. It came to my office as a case of normal pressure hydrocephalus and brain atrophy. A look in the eye made the link for me easy.
Ventricular size measurement is necessary for the determination and follow-up of many neurological illnesses, and pathologies. Ventricular enlargement is an indicator of brain parenchyma loss (Karakas et al, 2011). Furthermore, ventricular size measurements are used in studies of hydrocephalus, schizophrenia, tumors, trauma, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, gender, aging, and atrophy which is associated with many neurological diseases such as stroke and dementia, Huntington’s disease (Karakas et al.; Gameraddin et al.; Honnegowda et al.) and provides useful indices of cerebral asymmetry and atrophy. The knowledge of ventricular system anatomy is essential for clinicians, neurosurgeons, and radiologists (Kanakaraj et al., 2016; Farheen & Sukre, 2017). Due to literature findings, ventricular size is considered a potential indicator in the determination of many diseases related to the brain. I think it is the key to understanding where melanopsin and melanin damage are located in the human brain. It is a treasure trove of non-visual photoreceptor damage that we can use to predict future diseases. Additionally, the normal reference values of ventricles obtained by MRI are necessary to form the baseline data for interpreting pathological changes, planning neurosurgical operations, and determining the presence and progress of some neurological diseases. Below you see the 3rd ventricle is almost nonexistent in a healthy brain compared to the picture above.
Fig. 1 above is an Axial T2-weighted Turbo Spin Echo MRI (TR:3600, TE:87 ms) of measurement areas of healthy subjects. (FH) Frontal horn width. (TIDS) The maximum transverse inner diameter of the skull. Note how the 3rd ventricle is small here in the pic.
Today’s facts are the boundary of human knowledge. These facts are set for it, but should not bind us to what the central paradigm believes. We must look past that edge to explain things they cannot. If our mind is open, we can spot new data and formulate ideas to test. Our mind requires nature’s connection to provide the software to run the hardware inside the skull. To build this natural quality, a “natural mind” is also a necessary requirement for this process. These facts allow our species to travel hopefully throughout life, and this appears to be why the journey of discovery supersedes the arrival.
Below is the location in the periphery of the retina where most of the melanopsin IPGRCs are located in the periphery of the retina and not in the macula/fovea. AMD, cataracts, and many neurodegenerative disorders show defects in this same area on OCT scans. Central vision is not affected early in these diseases. This paradox needs an explanation. Today, you’ll get my explanation from my 30 years of careful observation in a decentralized fashion.
Damage in this peripheral area outside the fovea correlates with cognitive decline in neurodegenerative diseases. Most ophthalmologists are not taught the reason why this area of the retina has the highest amount of O2 utilization in the entire human body. These photoreceptors use high O2 because this increases the band gap of the semiconductive proteins in the RPE to regenerate melanin in the RPE. Most eye professionals are told that RPE has no regenerative potential. I’m not so sure I believe this any longer. The cells may not divide but the melanin inside of them needs constant renovation via POMC activation and/or migration from Bruch’s membrane of the choroid where melanocytes are closest to RPE in adult humans for some reason. Moreover, this is where most retinal bleeds occur in diabetic retinas and this is where most retinal surgeons use laser coagulation to stop diabetic retinal changes and bleeding from proceeding. I doubt many of them realize this puts their patients at higher risk of many neurodegenerative conditions due to the disruption of the VUV creation at the WBG semiconductors of the eye. Please note the last line in the slide below. It will be critical in your understanding later in this blog.
KEY POINT: A recent systematic review and meta-analysis reported that vision impairment is associated with 2.4-fold greater odds of cognitive impairment in existing cross-sectional studies and 1.7-fold greater odds in longitudinal studies.
Do you still think laser treatment for retinal bleeds has few risks with 800-1200 burn holes from retinal surgeons’ lasers?
What is the link? The key feature for most neurodegenerative disorders is the accumulation of misfolded protein aggregates, framing them within the classification concept of proteinopathies or “protein conformational disorders”. The key change is alpha helices are changed to the beta format by changes in the pH of the surrounding fluids. People forget that pH is a log function of the H+/D ratio of the tissue. Here we are back to seeing the impact of the Kruse for Dummies lecture yet again. The H+/D ratio is key to understanding chiral effects in tissues and how certain diseases manifest. Diabetic retinopathy is one of those diseases.
However, it is important to underscore that not all neurodegenerative diseases can & should be considered protein-conformational disorders. Proteins are semiconductive materials in cells that need constant care and rejuvenation (redox management). Protein conformational changes can happen from the protein or water side of the biological semiconductor. If the redox power in the cell is suboptimal those semiconductive proteins will misfold and accumulate with their associated components. We see these changes in the retina all the time in the RPE before diseases in the brain or other tissue manifest. This mimics what we see in the choroid of children who will become fat because their choroid has thickened. This was the key lesson I taught you in the Vermont 2017 lecture.
I just never told you it explains a whole lot more. And none of you bothered to ask me either.
Although the molecular underpinnings of neurodegeneration are still not completely understood by centralized medicine, if you are following my thesis over the last 20 years, it should be obvious where the problem lies. It begins with altered light frequencies at surfaces to cause unusual diseases. Melanin’s charge separates water to make H+, oxygen, and electrons. Therefore it is the most powerful redox semiconductor in a cell. It explains why most melanin tends to be adjacent to the perikaryon in cells where mitochondria also reside. There are no coincidences in Nature. Recall that mitochondria make 95% of melatonin in a cell and that melatonin acts as the change programmer of the matrix and a major antioxidant to control ROS/RNS generation along with melanin that is adjacent to it.
As melanin is degraded or lost in the eye photoreceptor complex we see the loss of the RPE microvilli on the basal side of the RPE. This causes infolding by the microvilli and increases the surface area of the RPE over a millionfold. The loss of microvilli is the first clinical sign of a POMC problem in the retina. This is the clinical sign one can see on OCT retinal scans that melanin needs renovation. As melanin is lost so is the redox power of the cristae in mitochondria. As a result, melatonin levels drop locally in those mitochondria and they all make less water and consume less oxygen. As a result, the tissue becomes hypoxic. This changes the free radical stream in mitochondria which changes the biochemical pathways used by the photoreceptors to regenerate in the retina. When this occurs, simultaneously DHA is consumed locally in photoreceptor damage. Normally most people think the consumption and oxidation of DHA are pathologic (Ray Peat) but that is wrong. It is wrong because DHA is the only PUFA in evolutionary history found to be transformed into highly anti-inflammatory chemicals called docasanoids and elovanoids to protect the RPE from ROS generation. This is an optical switch used in photo repair that requires UV-A light to be present when hypoxia exists in the retina. This is the basis of the Bazan short loop in the eye. This is pictured below in detail. This is direct evidence that redox power in the retina is lost because melatonin and melanin are both redox proteins that respond to this signal in retinal cells. Note that the liberated Vitamin A from the non-visual photoreceptor damage in the eye is what destroys the redox power of melanin and melatonin in tissues. Normally this process is tightly controlled by the physiology of the retina and terrestrial sunlight frequencies with DHA in the retina. If any of these thermodynamic givens are disrupted disease manifests.
Recall that dopamine can be made from L-DOPA from melanin in hypoxia but this ability is lost as well. As a result, the ROS made in the eye cannot be absorbed by melanin. This increases the oxidative stress associated with the eye and into the brain via tracts that are topographically linked to the RPE and the rest of the human cortex.
As we age heteroplasmy rises and so does melanin degradation. Thus, aging is associated with increasing levels of pro-oxidant factors (reactive oxygen species, ROS) and the dysfunction of the antioxidant systems in the brain, leading to protein and cellular damage and ultimately to neurodegeneration. That is the real cause of most cases of neurodegeneration. This is why Alzheimer’s disease is now referred to as Type 3 Diabetes.
Hyperglycemia causes retinal damage through complex metabolic pathways leading to oxidative stress, inflammation, vascular damage, capillary ischemia, and retinal tissue hypoxia. Melanin scavenges ROS/RNS/metal ions to clear them to prevent protein misfolding of the semiconductor complexes in retinal tissues that connect to deeper optical tracts in the brain. This mimics how prions spread disease.
This preserves non-linear optical processes in tissues to maintain tissue function. When melanin is absent or degraded the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS/RNS) leads to the generation of oxidative stress (lowered melatonin/melanin), which will result in the excessive production and accumulation of catabolism of these semiconductive proteins in these areas of the body. Melanin normally cleans up this debris when the eye is healthy. Without UV light exposure, the creation and accumulation of these complexes will occur and disease follows.
In ophthalmology textbooks, they repeat this statement all the time. Melanin granules in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) have many important functions which are not yet completely understood by centralized science.
One thing they do get right is that melanin in the RPE protects the cell from damage caused by oxidative stress. It also turns off vascularization of the fovea of the macula. This pigment acts as a free radical sink and diminishes cytotoxic lipid peroxidation that occurs in most eye diseases when melanin is not present in the RPE. Melanin in the retinal pigment epithelium is mostly eumelanin. There are two types of eumelanin, which are brown and black, synthesized from levodopa or tyrosine. The melanin amount in the RPE reduces importantly in aged eyes. When this occurs we know by definition melanin and Vitamin A are a problem in the eye. This is what destroys the Bazan loops in the eye and what also increases the need for DHA in the central retinal pathways.
Retinal hypoxia is further worsened by high oxygen consumption in the rods in the periphery. This seems like a problem to centralized researchers who do not seem to realize this is how dopamine is made from melanin to regenerate all the photoreceptors in the visual and nonvisual systems. The rods use a Warburg metabolism by design because of this arrangement. Melanopsin synthesis needs a massive blood supply in the periphery of the retina to create astronomical amounts of this opsin in the retina. I believe the reason for this is to increase the band gap because the rods and iPGRCs of melanopsin use so much oxygen to regenerate. The collateral effect of this arrangement creates more VUV light and ROS that stimulates melanin renovation on the RPE. This is why the RPE is so close to it in the retina.
The RPE cells are the workhorse of the retina and have a large job to do as the slide shows above, yet the RPE is a thin layer of cells that textbooks say does not UNDERGO mitosis. If it does not undergo mitosis it means its nucleus has to be protected from any stray VUV light created endogenously. This is the job of melanin in this layer in the RPE. It absorbs all frequencies of light to keep the nucleus of the RPE cells from dividing. This is why the RPE has dark neuromelanin. Persistent hypoxia in this area results in the destruction of pericytes around the retinal vascular arcades that first create A-V shunts in the retina. I believe this is exactly how AVMs of the brain form in maldevelopment in embryos and in adult forms of humans. This is also the first step in diabetic neuropathy. I believe it is also a step we see to varying degrees in TBI cases. Centralized medicine has missed this in TBI because they are not doing OCTs as part of the workup.
This increases vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and other pro-angiogenic factors )lack of melanin) always lead to vascular proliferative diabetic retinopathy/macular edema and progressive visual impairment when melanin is absent or not renovated by adjacent melanopsin damage.
BAZAN SHORT LOOP LOSS OF DHA DUE TO LACK OF MELANIN/MELATONIN
Optimal glucose control has favorable effects on diabetic retinopathy primarily because this allows for melanin renovation. POMC is such a unique mammalian intervention because the cleavage products work in opposition to one another, yet mammals figured out a way to make food directly from light without an intermediary WBG like chlorophyll. Melanin utilization was truly an innovation of evolutionary design using the colors of sunlight that bend the most inside the globe.
This blog is showing you how Nature hides her recipes in plain sight. What is most obvious is also often most concealed in Nature by her design. This is why you need curiosity to see what she is really doing and understand why she is doing it.
Melatonin controls mitochondrial DNA biology but dopamine creation from melanin controls how we decipher and sense time between the inside and the outside world. This creates the illusion Nature needs and wants. Nature never wanted us to see that 380 nm light is her favorite spectral density to run her photo repair process using the NON-VISUAL PHOTORECEPTOR SYSTEM. This system is far more critical to life than sight because it controls the eye clock pathways that are designed to simulate the physics of your environment from your brain to make the best metabolic choices of biochemical pathways in cells linked to the leptin-melanocortin pathways of humans. This is the best prediction machine evolution has ever built.
Implications of this idea? You can live well blind unless your eye clock mechanism is involved in your blindness. You will never thrive when your non-visual photoreceptor system is damaged whether you are sighted or not. This is the critical piece that modern centralized ophthalmology is missing today Creating melatonin in the mitochondria of tissues like the eye is the most critical surface for humans. The cristae are where the magic really happens. Melatonin initially controls all regeneration of the photoreceptors, visual and nonvisual in humans except the Muller cells in the retina. This is also by Nature’s design. Melatonin needs help from the non-visual photoreceptors to finish the job of photo repair in the CNS. Both of these chemical molecules are made by sunlight early in the day when a certain spectral frequency falls to Earth as it collides with aromatic amino acids in our eye to slow light down and create the quantum magic we call life. RNA and DNA have a homochirality to them. <——-Do not miss this hyperlink.
Below are two of the slides from that Vermont 2018 talk that put forth this idea for the first time in public.
^^^^The exact same thing goes on in your retina where melanin is located in the RPE.
This implies that your eye is off and on the switch of the human brain’s non-visual photoreceptive system. Now I am showing the wiring diagram of how this optical switch was built by nature.
Aromatic amino acids have to have an opposite chirality to fit this design quantum mechanically. You might remember my lecture from Vermont in 2018 introduced the idea of chirality to my thesis. The chiral heat effect of UV light is critical in this process. If this process is disturbed the entire system becomes off-kilter and disease will result. That is how and what melatonin, dopamine, DHA, and melanin, surrounded by matrix water are doing and what Nature is hiding from the observers of centralized science in the retinohypothalamic tract.
I wonder when centralized science will realize that the mitochondria also generate a magnetic field that is far stronger than the Earth or the sun’s magnetic effect because its scale shrinks. They seem to forget the lesson in physics as scale shrinks the electromagnetic force gains in strength. Might Mother Nature be using these forces in her quantum design to do things that are impossible at the macroscopic level that centralized science observes cells?
YEP.
Modern centralized treatments never focus on the intricate photo-regeneration of the retina. This process is critical in TBI and many brain diseases as well. This is just not a retina story developing before your eyes Patrons. The closest we came to this comprehension and realization of these ideas was in Becker’s work on regeneration. Another place we came close to in centralized science was in the work of neurosurgeon Robert Spetzler in the 1980s.
We still have not appreciated what either man really found (pic above and below). No one in neurosurgery today realizes that AVMs and aneurysms are due to a defect in melanin and melanopsin in the arterial beds of the brain that mimic what happens in the embryogenesis of the human retina. Instead, the focus of centralized scientists has been on the anatomic realignment of what appears in tissue in post-natal life. Big mistake.
AVMs anywhere in the post-natal human is a sign of melanopsin damage and a melanin problem passed down transgenerationally. AVMs of the dura and skin are big-time signs we still do not understand.
Aneursyms of the brain are also markers for melanopsin and melanin issues within.
Aneurysms of the aorta are also markers of melanopsin and melanin renovation problems postnatally. An aortic aneurysm is the type of aneurysm rupture that Albert Einstein died from. It is also the type of aneurysm that Rick Rubin almost died from.
LESSONS FROM DIABETIC NEUROPATHY
Diabetic retinopathy stoichiometry defines most traumatic brain injuries. Every diabetic provides a lesson for a decentralized clinician. Centralized clinicians remain in the dark because they are bad at understanding opsin math.
What goes bad in diabetes in the eye? The photorepair regeneration system goes awry and this gives the decentralized MD something to understand the optical physiology of the human brain. In the Rod Outer Segment melanin renovation is astounding. It goes bad in diabetic retinopathy. Humans have 125,000, 000 rods in the retina., 1 RPE cell attends to > 200 photoreceptors. Each rod sheds approximately 3 mm a day. Thus, the human retina must shed 375 meters each day. This means > 10,000,000 meters of the disk have been shed by the age of 75. The most astounding ability of the human retina is that it must synthesize 9 billion opsin molecules per second in order to maintain its function. If it cannot regenerate the rhodopsin, melanopsin, or neuropsin you are guaranteed to get get some neurodegenerative condition linked to some degree of diencephalic breakdown in a topological map. Where the opsin is destroyed is a marker for where the disease will manifest as time elapses.
Other treatments for diabetic retinopathy include laser photocoagulation, which improves retinal oxygenation by destroying the high oxygen-consuming rods by their replacement of low oxygen-consuming glial tissue. No one has thought to use melanin renovation of the RPE to solve this problem because no one in ophthalmology realizes that melanin is a wonderful creation of condensed matter physics and atomic molecular orbital engineering. It is truly the most amazing protein anywhere in the human brain. No wonder humans put it in every organ system compared to other primates. In places it is absent or missing destruction lies in its wake. Remember alpha MSH is stimulated by UV-A light. 380nm light is UV-A light. It shares this common tie for its love of UV-A light with melatonin.
Hypoxia is a potent stimulator of VEGF, and HIF-1 alpha and intravitreal anti-VEGF antibodies have been somewhat effective in regressing macular edema according to some studies done in retinal neovascularization. The problem is using natural light to renovate the photoreceptors that should have hit somebody’s mind in 125 years still astounds me. We know that dopamine and melatonin regenerate the photoreceptors and we also know melanin creation improves the regeneration of dopamine from melanin by way of L-DOPA. We also know as melanin returns to the RPE the amount of melatonin made in the mitochondria of the retina also improves. When the RPE is loaded with melanin sleep improves tremendously because Vitamin A goes down and the visual cycle of photoreceptor regeneration is CONTROLLED locally in the eye by DHA, dopamine, melatonin, and melanin working in concert. This is why sunny days at the beach always lead to great sleep.
Very few people have linked the complex pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy with an altered spectrum of sunlight because they do not seem to understand the biology of POMC even today in 2023. They continue a biochemical focus with their lens pointed to retinal oxygen/fuel consumption with resultant hypoxic damage to retinal neurons. Blue light destroys melanin because it raises blood glucose and insulin. UV light and IR-A light is what are critical in the melanin renovation of the RPE. The biochemical focus wants to continue to discuss potential mechanisms through which sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors improve retinal hypoxia—through ketone bodies. This is incredibly myopic because no one seems to understand mammals make glucose and insulin from blue light.
Melatonin plays a key role in the coordination of the diurnal and seasonal circadian system, which underlies how the biological clock works everywhere in humans.
Mitochondrial DNA is more vulnerable to alteration than nuclear DNA, mainly for two reasons. As such mtDNA damage LOWERS local melatonin levels. So circadian disruption alters melatonin levels locally in many tissues. That lead to diseases.
Melatonin controls mitochondrial DNA and dopamine controls how we experience, decipher, and sense time between the inside and the outside world. Nature hid that she made this dopamine in the eye when parts of the retina were forced to be hypoxic to degrade melanin to create dopamine. In this way, Nature never wanted us to know how important melanin was. Creating melatonin also occurs first in the eye and is the most critical surface creation for humans. Melatonin is made by the aromatic amino acid tryptophan which absorbs a very unusual amount of full-spectrum UV light according to its absorption spectra. This is light that never reaches the surface of the Earth in most places. So the curious would ask themselves how does this happen? Deuterium in the circulatory system of the retina, when sunlight entered the eye and hemoglobin’s unique optical window of 250-600nm, was the key to solving that mystery in the eye. This explained why the choriocapillaris exists as it does in the adult human retina.
The choriocapillaris is the innermost structure of the choroid in humans that directly nourishes the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptors.
The embryology of this layer of the retina shows the power of melanin. The initial human choriocapillaris form by hemo-vasculogenesis. This is how hemoglobin if formed in the human embryo. This area of the retina forms just like red blood cells do in our marrow and liver. This means the same cells in this region of the retina express special fetal hemoglobin called Hb-εas well as CD31, CD34, VEGFR-2, or vWf (where hemophilia and von Willebrand’s disease comes from), further suggesting the same precursors were capable of erythropoiesis, hematopoiesis, and vasculogenesis, the definition of hemo-vasculogenesis, as occurs in blood islands in cells. In the fetal period, hemo-vasculogenesis is completed the same way for blood cells and new blood vessels. They appear to form by angiogenesis since endothelial cells were proliferating in the same way at the same time. So is melanopsin. 9 billion opsin molecules are synthesized per second in the retina’s outer photoreceptor region. This requires massive amounts of oxygen to synthesize this amount of melanopsin. All these unique pieces fit now and make sense. Porphyrins are another non-visual photoreceptor in humans.
What was the key to this entire process occurring? Melanin had to be absent in the embryo at a specific time in morphogenesis when the choriocapillaris is forming. Just the presence of melanin in this area of the retina appears to stop hemo-vasculogenesis in the embryo’s retina creating the picture above in the adult retina. This is why the retinal angiogram of the adult human retina shows no blood vessels in the adult macula. Diabetic retinopathy is like autism. It is an atavistic effect of the embryo of previous stages of evolution of the eye that allowed for blood vessel growth in the fovea.
It is also why diabetic retinopathy is associated with neovascularization or angiogenesis with excessive blue light exposure. When melanin/melanopsin is disrupted or destroyed, blood vessels can grow and neurulation is changed in the optical pathways. You saw the same thing in the last blog on autism. Blue light also changes the retinoid cycle of the retina. Melanin’s presence or absence is critical in both the embryo and in the adult form of humans. Blood vessels bring RBC and RBC brings oxygen and oxygen is key to melanin biology. When hypoxia develops dopamine shows up from melanin degradation. Have I told you yet that the choriocapillaris creates the highest blood flow of any human tissue and it has the outer rod photoreceptors adjacent to it that consume the most oxygen of any tissue in humans? Do you want to guess why this arrangement exists? The picture below gives the answer.
If you have a high demand for oxygen you keep melanin in its optimal state and any photooxidation in the visual system of the photoreceptors needs dopamine. It also is needed to make 9 billion opsins per second. If the non-visual photoreceptor system fails, you’ll wind up with some diseases mentioned in this blog.
Dopamine is made from tyrosine, another aromatic amino acid that also absorbs short-wave UV light. This is why both molecules are tied to the physiology in the sys and skin and are linked to melanopsin. Melatonin controls all regeneration of the photoreceptors in man except the Muller cells in the eye. Both of these chemical molecules are made by sunlight as it collides with aromatic amino acids in our eye to slow sunlight down so it can become matter. That is how they link to one another. The Reality #12 blog told you long ago how they work in a cell but no one asked me in the comments the right question.
Most people with Parkinson’s disease know that they are deficient in dopamine in the midbrain, but most people do not know that that defect in that area spreads to the region from the eye first in a very similar fashion to how a prion disease works. The Vitamin A deficit in the eye is how the blood disorder von Willenbrands disease or hemophilia A happens due to the changes in the retinoid cycle of the embryo. These can be transgenerational diseases but few people see what I see in the embryology of the retina. This is why PD patients have misfolded proteins associated with their disease that mimics how prions operate in disease states. It is a story laid out in the OSF #3 blog post in detail. I’ve been telling you this story for a long time but now you have new eyes to perceive it. What has always been the clinical take home from Uncle Jack?
My Rx was not hard. Most of you refused to believe it was this simply because you were all ignorant of the optics of the non-visual photoreceptive system built into us by Nature. Stop complaining and just do what Nature requires you to do. I am giving you my life’s work for the cost of a cup of coffee. SHARE IT. You owe me that much.
MORE SCIENCE TO MOTIVATE YOU INTO NATURE
First, mitochondria are a major source of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) via cytochrome C oxidase’s ability to hold oxygen between Fe and Cu ions. The electrostatic grip is linked to the free radical made. The light in the environment controls the electrostatic power via the effect of D shell electrons in these metal atoms. Therefore mitochondrial DNA is under much stronger oxidative stress than nuclear DNA. Second, mitochondria have a matrix-side negative membrane potential for oxidative phosphorylation. This membrane potential concentrates lipophilic cations inside the mitochondrial matrix up to approximately 1,000-fold. Deuterium and H+ are positive cations. Deuterium and H+ are both positive cations that varying lipophilic attributes FYI. Too bad some of the deuterium critics don’t know these basics. This is why the matrix favors H+ over deuterium and why the ECF and non-lipophilic tissues will naturally contain more deuterium (plasma). This deuterium in the blood is how cells make their own UVC light used to make neurohormones from aromatic amino acids that control local mitochondrial biogenesis.
^^^^Both slides were from Vermont in 2018. Please stop telling me I have not been telling you this story for years when the reality is you refused to sink to my level and LEVER up your knowledge. If you do not lever up your knowledge you are never going to stop believing the dermatologists and ophthalmologists who are being paid by Big Pharma to keep you from the most simple things to keep you healthy. The slide below was used in 2017 in Cancun by a group of optometrists/ophthalmologists who refused to see where diabetes came from………blue light toxicity. I hope you get the lesson today they still cannot fathom.
SUMMARY
Diabetes has been and will always be a chronic mammalian disease when the purple and red light is removed from our environmental light. The focus on a ketogenic diet is misplaced when you consider the quantum effects of manufactured light on the photoreceptors mentioned above.
The biochemical ideas continue to dominate the literature because they believe ketones are energetically as efficient as glucose and yield more ATP per molecule of oxygen consumed than fat, with less oxidative stress. While this is true, no ketogenic diet has ever been able to reverse DR primarily because diabetes is not a disease of diet. It is a disease of blue light. Instead, we need a paradigm shift where eye physicians begin to realize full spectrum sunlight leads to direct retinal benefits which occur quickly when UV light and IR-A light are reintroduced to improved fuel energetics. these two frequencies of light induce less hypoxia and reduce inflammation through the recycling of DHA and the neuroprotective metabolites of the short loop of Bazan in the eye. Modern eye care is in the dark ages in treating this disease of blue light overexposure.
MORE ON THE ipRGCs of the retina and SCN. Someday if someone funds my research, autism might be the first topic I’d suggest we study. Why?
Melanin seems to be important for migration of neurons in all mammals. I told you that in the recent blogs around melanin and metastasis. And this idea clued me long ago in that I might be able to explain autism because of my unique perspective on melanocyte migration and how it links to melanopsin regeneration.
Implications of a lack melanin pigment in mothers and fathers and what this might mean to their germ lines that become a child? Here is one of my kids above.
Today’s lesson is going to come from kitty. Most of you know I love cats. My favorite cat has always been the Siamese cat. My first cat was one and my current cat (above) is a Siamese. You might not know why I am fond of Siamese cats but you will soon. They taught me a lot about melanin when I was a boy in New York City.
CATS & HUMANS WHO ARE ALBINOS HAVE A MELANOPSIN LESSON TO TEACH
Most albino human beings and albino cats lacking retinal pigment in the RPE have observable nystagmus and many exhibit strabismus. The optic chiasm (pic above) of albino mammals including human beings and cats shows that almost all their retinal ganglion cells cross at the optic chiasm with few uncrossed optic fibers. This shows you there is a problem with morphology in mammals neurulation patterns. Something has to be behind this misrouting behavior. My bet is a lack of melanin allows the stickier deuterium isotope to affect cell migration during neurulation of the mammalin brain due to the kinetic isotope effect of deuterium on hydrogen in cells. One D controls 96 atoms of H+ (pic below). I think the massive increase of atomic weight and the kinetic isotope effect are critical in the misrouting behavior of neurons and this has dramatic effects on organization of the visual system of mammals. There are details about mammalian embryology that have lead me to this conclusion. I think it might be behind what causes autism, as well. A lack of melanin in the parents and their germ line cells maybe the precipatating event that begins this cascade of events on. I believe this idea is tied to autism because the effect is quite heterogenous in presentation, hence why they call autism a spectrum of disorders.
In 1965, C.L. Sheridan noticed that retinal ganglion cells originating in temporal retina of albino rats did not function well, hypothesizing that albino rats have fewer uncrossed, non-decussating optic fibers. R.D. Lund anatomically verified that albino rats have fewer non-decussating optic fibers compared to pigmented rats. For several years the abnormality of reduced non-decussating optic fibers at the optic chiasm in albinos was thought to be limited to rats and rabbits. Guillery reported atypical visual system organization in Siamese cats, but the association with albinism was not identified.
CIRCADIAN BIOLOGY ENTERS THE FRAY OF MY KITTY STORY
The mammalian SCN is controlled by light and temperature and by the ipRGC of melanopsin. I told you that a long time ago in the Cold Thermogenesis #6 blog. What else didn’t I mention back then?
In 1971, Creel initially published the connection between Siamese cats and albinism, and hypothesis that reduced non-decussating optic fibers likely is a “highly general transspecies phenomenon in albino mammals”. Siamese cats all have blue eyes and blue eyes = less melanin in the iris. Siamese cats, Himalayan mice, rats, and rabbits all express a mutation that is a temperature-sensitive pigmentation defect, that is, allowing pigment to show up only on the cold parts of the body.
This is why their coats are so grey and white (my kitty above). Moreover, their retinae lack pigment too. Many human infants are born with blue eyes because their brains are devoid of melanin because humans brains are born into life in an immature state. That is the case for human blue eyes, but what about the cats? Why do Siamese cats have blue eyes almost all time? It is not just their iris that has reduced melanin. Here we see the interplay of UV light and cold and begin to understand why this link is present from an evolutionary standpoint. Wide band gapped semiconductors can make the same light endogenously from atoms doped to proteins or via cooling environmental temperatures. I believe this is the basis of where the mammalian dive reflex comes from. Most humans who live at high latitudes where it is colder also tend to have blue eyes and blonde hair. The link is unmistakable when you realize it.
Cooling is usually occurs at surfaces in mammals (eccrine sweat glands) and most of their surface has arterioles loaded with higher levels of deuterium that act a Bose Einstein condensate because of deuterium unique nuclear spin. This makes their surface something important. It is called a topological insulator. Mammals interiors are filled with fermions = electrons and H+ ions. They follow Dirac fermion statistics. Here we see a physical difference manifesting in mammals for some reason.
Is there a trade off for mammals who live in colder environments? Yes there is. what is it?
They have less visual and non visual photoreceptors in their sensory organs.
Is this true in human mammals too, Uncle Jack? YEP.
Note when humans have normal pigmentation in the eye (RPE) tend to have optimized neuro-opthalmological migration in their visual system as well. It appears melanin is a beacon for proper migration of neurons in the eye to deeper brain structures in humans. This is critical in the eye because of the location of the SCN to the RPE. The SCN controls the eye clock, circadian rhythms, and the pupillary response in mammals to bright light. It also affects their behavior. This is markedly changed in autistic kids.
In humans with pigmented retinae, retinal blood vessels spare the foveal area. In albino human retinae, blood vessels intrude into foveal area. Pigmented human retina exhibit an avascular zone surrounding the fovea. Albinos do not exhibit this arrangement. They have blood vessel encroach into their fovea. Humans with destroyed RPE from diseases like diabetes get the very same neovascularization of the fovea. This ruins their central vision over time.
This is a big clue for what decentralized clinicians should be looking for in human’s with autism. If a lack of melanin is part of the pathophysiology of this disorder than we should see some subtle changes in OCT and their arteriole beds in the diencephalic derivative of the brain if we look for it, if I am correct. I think a lack of melanin pigment initiates atavistic expression in autistic kids of the central and peripheral nervous system. This lack of POMC or POMC translation leads to alterations in the melanopsin system that ruins normal neural migration.
The phenomenon is called atavism—this is the reappearance of a trait that had been lost during evolution before in the same species. In autism many of these kids cannot talk or interact with their species. We know our nearest cousins cannot speak either. We also know that early primates were loners and that social networking became a big trait later on in evolutionary history of the primate. This is another throw back behavior seen in autism that would have been seen in transitional chimps on their way to us. This change would not be found in our DNA either. Our genes do not determine who we are, but with atavism, they can sometimes serve as reminders of our evolutionary past. Functionally this is what autism in humans looks like to me from my current perspective. Another big clue for my hypothesis is found in the embryology of the visual and auditory systems of mammals.
MELANIN IS ALSO A TIME CRYSTAL FOR EMBRYOGENESIS IN MAMMALS
Embryonic progression in albino mammals’ visual and auditory systems seem to also take a step back in evolutionary time and it seems this program is initiated by lack of melanin pigment. Non albino animals do not exhibit this altered migratory pattern. Abnormalities of optic chiasmic misrouting in albino mammals is a developmental field defect that is seen normally in preceding phylogeny. Complete crossing of optic neurons at the chiasm is a normal developmental event in vertebrates prior to mammals. This reinforces my beliefs that atavism is a central problem in understanding modern autism.
The presence of melanin pigment in the embryonic retina is the signal that initiates retinal ganglion cell pathway routing from the eye to the SCN and from the SCN deep into the brain. Insufficient coding for retinal pigment launches an earlier, more stable genetic package directing a different targeting of optic neurons and this results in autism.
Genetic makeup includes preserved earlier evolutionary features. Charles Darwin popularized atavism in the 1860s as the term for reappearance of ancestral characteristics in future generations.
Today we know that vision and hearing evolved together dating back to the PaxB gene, which is a single gene controlling eye and precursors to hearing (mechanoreceptors) in box jellyfish. This occurred before independent Pax 2 and Pax 6 genes showed up in primates much later. There are evolutionary connections between eyes and mechanoreceptors of the inner ear to the extent that during evolution are linked to melanin generation in those sense organs. I told you earlier in the series melanin was the favored semiconductor of all mammals post KT event. This story fits this narrative as well. If POMC/melanin is absent for any reason, it appears human neuroplastiticty allows sensory cells to shift their sensory modalities to an older phylogeny experienced in evolutionary history. Why is this a big deal? The melanopsin phylogeny predates even primate evolution in time.
I think this happens in modern humans because of a loss of information and energy transformation in the embryo due to a lack of POMC or POMC translation in the parents cells and their germ lines that create their child. I think this is what autism is at its core. It is lack of POMC that has huge implications for the neurulation of the diencephalon in humans and its really old relationship to melanopsin biology.
BACK TO THE CATS
What happens when cats lack melanin in their eyes? Do they exhibit traits that mimic human autism? They exhibit fewer photoreceptors, they have foveal/area centralis hypoplasia, & exhibit misrouting of the temporal retinal ganglion cells, while having a variation of geniculate terminations, and most importantly they develop vascular intrusion into foveal area. They also exhibit abnormal cortical projections, and fewer cones in macular area. Lacking pigment in the cat leads to some major migration problems in the adult form. It seems albino kitties and Siamese cats have a lot in common with autism.
The animal model closest to organization of primate visual system studied the most is the albino cat. Albino cats have observable nystagmus, and many have strabismus. Figure 1 above pictures the optic chiasm of an OCA1 albino cat shows almost all retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) cross at the chiasm.
Not all of them do and the ones that do not cross tend to innervate areas they should not be in. The non visual photoreceptor associated with these RGCs is melanopsin. The number of binocular cells was found to be reduced in visual cortical areas of Brodman numbered 17, 18, and 19 in Siamese cats and albino cats. This impairs their stereovision. So these cats do not have great vision, but this is because they are adapted to colder environments with more blue light and less UV light. Their SCN periodicity can be retuned by cold weather. The trade off for their lack of melanin is altered neural migration in their brains.
This surface temperature thing is a big deal in mammals because our SCN changes its periodicity to temperature and light. I believe this explains why autistic kids do not like temperature changes or being touched. (another sensory processing delay). I have a sense why this happens in autistic kids because these changes are seen in cats as well who lack pigment. Autistic kids have a broken topological insulator in their skin, eyes, and circulatory system. I think they are exquisitely sensitive to the chiral pinch of deuterium in their blood and this creates a lot of endogenous light that overwhelms their system because they have poor melanin sheets within the basal levels of their skin. This allows too much deuterium to leach out of the circulatory system and into the substance of their subcutaneous tissues. These leaching of deuterium than alters non visual photoreceptors in that location.
There is some rather unique things to know about this situation. Evolution seems very fond of the SCN melanopsin connections I mentioned in QE #44. Why? Melanopsin retinal ganglion cells are always completely crossed or bilaterally projected into suprachiasmatic nuclei above the optic chiasm and these projections are not affected by albinism in any mammals. Interesting don’t you think?
I think this goes back to where melanopsin came from phylogenetically. It came from our fish amphibian origins 380 million years ago. Phylogenetically older connections are less abnormal in albino mammals by exhibiting a bilateral suprachiasmatic projection pathway to the SCN. These tracts appear to be unaffected in albinos. This tells me this system is highly protected by evolution because of how important it is to be able to simulate the physics of your environment to be highly adaptable. This also explains another peculiarity about the melanopsin system.
Melanopsin regeneratiion acts largely independently of the visual cycle. This tells me the melanopsin system has old roots in evolution and evolution has specifically made sure it did not co evolve similar mechanisms with the rod and cone system of the eye. Melanopsin neurons also control pupillary size with the autonomic nervous fibers of the third cranial nerve.
When this system is disrupted we get mammals that are not adaptable at all. This defines modern humans who are on the autism spectrum. Most children with autism have trouble sleeping, which may exacerbate other challenges associated with the condition. Sleep problems hint at disruptions in the circadian clock, a cellular timer that keeps cells in sync with the day-night cycle. Vitamin A disruption causes sleep disorders.
I have a sense that we will find out in the future that autistic children have wiring defects in their chiasms and in their sensory relay pathways because of a broken Vitamin A cycle in the melanopsin system along with a lack of melanin and POMC activity in the germ cells. This Vitamin A problem will lead to science realizing these kids all have altered melanopsin regeneration pathways compared to humans that do not have this deficit. I believe the melanopsin system has its own regeneration system because it is VITAL to accurate time crystal managment of the circadian mechanism you saw in the last blog. The SCN simulates the physics of our environment to program our metabolism from these light signals. This is broken in autism.
LACK OF POMC/MELANIN = ALTER MELANOPSIN REGENERATION = VITAMIN A PROBLEM
Vitamin A is necessary for normal embryonic development in humans, but its role in the adult brain is poorly understood by centralized science in 2023. Vitamin A derivatives, called retinoids, are involved in a complex signaling pathway that regulates gene expression and, in the central nervous system, controls neuronal differentiation and neural tube patterning.
There is another reason why I think this Vitamin A, melanin, melanopsin story is linked to autism. Most people know that the majority of melanin in the eye is in the RPE. What many however do not know is that the photosensitivity melanopsin requires a steady supply of cis-retinaldehyde, a type of retinoid. The primary source of this vitamin chromophore (328nm) in the vertebrate eye comes from a complex multistep enzymatic pathway, known as the retinoid or visual cycle (above). In this cycle by 11-cis retinaldehyde is regenerated from bleached all–trans originating in photoreceptor outer segments of rods. The critical elements of this pathway occur in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Here is the problem. Since melanopsin is found in the more superficial layers of the retina, quite distant from the RPE, it would seem poorly placed to obtain cis-retinaldehyde from this RPE source. So how does melanopsin do it? Why does it have its own regeneration pathway separate from rods and cones?
Chromophore regeneration in rod photoreceptors relies solely on a tissue adjacent to the rod and cone layer of the retinal pigment epithelium. Cone photoreceptors rely both on the RPE and Müller glia, which traverse the entire depth of the retina to regenerate. Melanopsin doesn’t use either system.
In the mammalian photoptic retina light activates melanopsin to trigger a G protein cascade that causes membrane depolarization. The ipRGCs/melanopsin response is opposite to that seen in our rods and cones, which hyperpolarize, but resembles the actions of photoreceptors found in invertebrates like fruit flies and horseshoe crabs. This system exhibits atavism mentioned above. In humans, ipRGCs fire spikes. They are understood to use glutamate as their primary neurotransmitter; uniquely among RGCs, they also express a peptide neurotransmitter called PACAP (pituitary adenylate cyclase activating peptide).
Known influences of ipRGCs extend well beyond their direct targets. Examples are regulation of melatonin synthesis in the pineal gland and the development of synaptic plasticity in the hippocampus. I believe they drive synaptic plasticity in all of our brain’s circuits and this is why melanopsin is the most numerous opsin in humans.
Why do I mention this detail? Most people forgot human embryology of the brain and skin. They have forgotten that Vitamin A/retinoic acid have massive effects in the morphogenesis and growth of the neural tube. Not only will deuterium affect neural migration from the notochord, but the chemical signal governing it is likely also awry. Most of which can be explained by defective notochord signalling. This would cause neurulation defects from the thalamus to the adult hemispheres. This process is how humans create their hemispheres in the last trimester and postnatally. This set of circumstances fits the modern phenotype of autism based upon my knowledge of human brain embryology. I think the key problem in the autistic embryo is a problem of Vitamin A signaling being comingled in the eye, optic chiasm, hypothalamus, thalamus and eventually the neocortex in humans. This would create a wide spectrum phenotype in the adult human.
Modern humans are new phylogenetic creatures in evolution and we know that optic projections near chiasm projecting into hypothalamus antecede vertebrates evolution because they occurred in early chordates. Chordates first appeared on Earth 590 million years ago. Those are the animals that innovated melanopsin originally.
It appears that fact surprised Dr. Huberman and Dr. Berson based on what Huberman said in the Rubin podcast. It did not shock me because I knew mammals came from early chordates because of my time in the Museum of Natural History in New York. This is why it made sense to me why we had melanopsin in our brains. I was shocked to learn in 2014-2017 that we also have it all our blood vessels, skin, fat, and our outer inferior retina. Nature does not make mistakes.
This is my kitty today as I write this blog. She likes IR-A and UV-A light now. I have a sense all parents with autism need to learn a lot more about full spectrum sunlight and the key frequencies of IR-A light and the 380 nm light that controls the photorepair mechanisms in mammals. When they do, they will realize how to help fix the problem they created by their abuse of blue light and tech screens.
SUMMARY
When I was 8 was the first time I got a Siamese cat. I asked the lady at the museum why my cats eyes were different colors than other cats and she did not know the answer. She told me she’d find out and few weeks later I found out about melanin as an 8 year old kid. She told me all chordates had retinal pigments matching vertebrates. Humans were the latest version of vertebrates. That lesson would come in big later in my life. I never forgot about my kitty’s eyes. And that is why it never surprised me that the melanopsin chromophore showed up in human brain. My childhood was prepping me for a later discovery around this amazing protein. People with autism one day may thank Siamese cats for solving this enigma disorder for centralized science.

The SCN is an optical lattice clock that pays attention to all the zip codes in a cell and functions as a true time crystal. It mitochondria imprint the time signal into the water & melatonin that the SCN’s mitochondrial create. This amazing part of the brain and a direct target of the ipRGC’s of melanopsin from the inferior nasal portions of the retina. (slide below from my Vermont 2018 talk)
I discussed time crystals in my 2018 Vermont talk briefly and told my members they were first thought about in 1982, rediscovered in 2012, and physically discovered in 2014. Today, in 2023, the time crystal is a new category of phases of matter, expanding the definition of what a phase is. All other known phases, like water or ice, are in thermal equilibrium: time crystals are dissipative far from equillibrium structures. Their constituent atoms have settled into the state with the lowest energy permitted by the ambient temperature in the environment, and their properties don’t change with time. This makes them a perfect metronome to keep time for multiple zip codes that exist in cells. The time crystal is the first “out-of-equilibrium” phase: It has order and perfect stability despite being in an excited and evolving state. This makes it highly responsive to light photons to create the tick-tock of periodicity that exists in circadian controlled mechanisms.
Essentially a time crystal is an object whose parts move in a regular, repeating cycle, sustaining this constant change without burning any energy. they are harvesting information in the system to create order from chaos.
The consequence is amazing: You appear to evade the second law of thermodynamics, which states that disorder always increases over time. We know from Maxwell’s work in “demon’s” and the work of Lindauer, that there is an infantessimal requirement of energy and information loss, so that this state of matter still has to obey all of physics laws. Kruse for Dummies attendees heard this in my presentation. Because of this, this explains why all living things must sleep. In sleep this debt is paid back to the system to remain highly ordered time crystal. I told you a long time ago, in the Cold Thermogenesis series, that the default state of life was sleep. Then as evolution progressed with evolved wakefulness. This idea was counterintuiitve to many at the time. The reason for my prediction was simple. I read Feynman;’s 1982 paper and thought to myself what organ in humans fit his description of an ability to simulate the physics of Nature? The SCN fit perfectly.
When I read the paper in my residency I immediately thought to myself is this what the SCN is doing for the body? It is an organ that can simulate the physics of the environment to inform the rest of the body of that information to create some semblance of order. Everybody knows that perpetual motion machines are impossible. However, in quantum physics perpetual motion is okay as long as we keep our eyes closed and do not observe it. By sneaking through this crack we can make time crystals operate. This mimics sleep.
My intuition was rewarded in 2012, when Physics Nobel Laureate Frank Wilczek theorized that time crystals had to exist and they were finally identified in 2014- 2016. Time crystals exhibit the bizarre property of being in constant, repeating motion in time despite no external input. Their atoms are constantly oscillating, spinning, or moving first in one direction, and then the other. The recipe for a time crystal is below.
Note the bottom part of the picture above. This appears to be exactly what is happening when sunlight hits the RPE in the eye and send photonic information to the SCN with no synapsing in between. The information stream is UNINTERRUPTED. This is unusual in the mammalian retina. Almost every tract in the eye synapses before it gets into the brain. This one does not. Interestingly the same tract sends uniterrupted information of light to the habenular nucleus that controls mood and behavior in mammals. It also makes sense why the same intrinsic photoreceptor retinal ganglion cells of this melanopsin tract send its information to the habenular nucleus of the thalamus.
The eye is the off and on switch for time for the entire diencephalon of mammals. This turns on and off the brain. It made sense to me finally why the thalamus created alpha waves of 7.83 Hz prior to sleep cycling. The thalamus has to be able to record the asymetry of light and day accurately to awaken the rest fo the brain from the default state. It turns out few people have realized the Schumann resonance on Earth varies day to night. This helps attune the periodicity of our time crystals in the SCN. They become more accurate clocks as periodicity increases.
A coupling between geomagnetic activity and the human nervous system’s function has now been fully identified by virtue of continuous monitoring of heart rate variability (HRV) and the time-varying geomagnetic field over a 31-day period in a group of 10 individuals who went about their normal day-to-day lives. (paper above)
It was found that the participants’ HRV rhythms synchronized across the 31-day period at a period of approximately 2.5 days, even though all participants were in separate locations on Earth. This tells us the ability is built into all mammals. Overall, this suggests that daily autonomic nervous system activity not only responds to changes in solar and geomagnetic activity, but is synchronized with the time-varying magnetic fields associated with geomagnetic field-line resonances and Schumann resonances. Biology is amazing when you observe its abilities.
The Schuman resonance is a charging opportunity for the human brain’s time crystals: How do cells charge?
Charging by friction – this is useful for charging insulators/semiconductors. If you rub one material with another (say, a plastic ruler with a piece of paper towel), electrons have a tendency to be transferred from one material to the other. For example, rubbing glass with silk or saran wrap generally leaves the glass with a positive charge; rubbing PVC rod with fur generally gives the rod a negative charge. Vortexing liquid crystals semiconductors also creates friction which can generate a charge that is quantized. This is how water gains charge in the circulatory system via turbulent flow around the cells in blood plasma.
Charging by conduction – useful for charging metals and other conductors. If a charged object touches a conductor, some charge will be transferred between the object and the conductor, charging the conductor with the same sign as the charge on the object. RBC’s are conductors and can transfer their charge to water in blood plasma. This is why coherent domains in water develops a net negative charge when it forms. This is how you build redox power in sunlight because charge is being transferred.
Charging by induction – also useful for charging metals (dopants on our semiconductors) and other conductors. Again, a charged object is used, but this time it is only brought close to the conductor, and does not touch it. This mimics how sunlight interacts with melanin, hemoglobin and chloroplasts in living systems in trapping light energy before it changes to an electric charge in the coherent domains water. To gain the charge best from sunlight you need to be grounded to Earth. If the conductor is connected to ground (ground is basically anything neutral that can give up electrons to, or take electrons from, an object), electrons will either flow on to it or away from it. When the ground connection is removed , the conductor will have a charge opposite in sign to that of the charged object. This is why being disconnected from Earth chronically leads to things like rouleux formation and clotting. Since water molecules, are naturally polarized (magnetic dipole), they can quickly remove charge from a charged object. This is why blood is 93% water by volume. Mother Nature uses every last bit of physics the universe gives her to work with.
On sunny clear days with low humidity are associated with ionospheres with high electric fields, low magnetic fields and diminished energy transfer from the sun to us if we do not have a connection to Earth. Why? Electrostatic charges are not transferred well when water is not present in the ionosphere. This is why dehydration from a lack or water production in mitochondria favors illness.It is also why deuterium is not favored by living systems in nature. It cannot transfer charge as well as light hydrogen can, because its extra mass affects bonding strengths in all molecules it is used in. This is why life tries to exclude it. (kinetic isotope effect = one D controls 96 H+ atoms) This restricts semiconductive flow from eye, skin, and gut to internal structures.
Dry air is a relatively good electrical insulator, so if something is charged, like clouds on a sunny day, the charge tends to stay in th cloud where the water is. In more humid conditions, such as you find on a typical summer day in New Orleans, water molecules, become polarized because water is a magnetic dipole, as such, theycan quickly remove “a charge” from a charged object. This is why the southeast has massive electrical storms. Electrical storms are how the Schumann resonance on Earth is formed. It is also why humans can get massive benefits even in cloudy weather in the southeast but the same is not true in Seattle. Seattle has the clouds but not the humidity or the electric storms of the Southeast. The humidity of the ionosphere does not allow charge transfer from the solar plasma to the ionosphere to out wide band gapped wetware carbon based semiconductors.
LINK TO THE KRUSE FOR DUMMIES LECTURE
Your brain is filled with water (CSF) next to your thalamus. CSF is deuterium depleted water. You probably understand why it is this way now if you listened to the Kruse for Dummies lecture. H+ transfers charge better in the brain than deuterium can. It is designed to sense this daily diurnal change of the Schumann resonance created by these electrical storms. This is why living further south where these storms are more common is longevity building 101 behavior for mammals who want high fidelity information.
The NC State research findings on water raises some interesting questions about the behavior of liquids when confined at a small scale in a cell or inside a mitochondria. It appear life took big advantage of this”sheet effect” 3.8 billion years ago when bacteria first showed up on Earth because it held promise for shaping future energy-storage technologies for cells who could take advantage of it.
When water is depleted of its atomic mass it improves its magnetic moment while restricting the heavy deuterium in our blood and out of our tissues. This creates a unique surface on mitochondria. I talked about that unique surface here. Surface changes are a change in topology. This helps to preserve stability of hydrogen bond networks in the coherent domains inside of cells, protecting against aneuploidy in chromosomes and resisting strand breaks in nucleic acids. This also lengthens our telomeres and gives us longevity. It also allows for optimized non linear optical signaling within the cell to preserve the liquid crystaline structure inside the cell in water. That water sits adjacent to your protein semiconductors who work by Fermion statistics in the topology. This can affect a persons ability to handle a stressed environment who is exposed to nnEMF radiation, blue light, or food eaten out of season or from the wrong latitude. It likely is the reasonn autism exists.
Blood is designed to carry this charge information like a Jacquard card from the sun. Moroever, the information is in quantized format (H+/D ratio in the spectrum of light) to mitochondria for processing. It does this for sunlight and it does it for food as well. Food is broken down in the gut and carried to cells in lipid rafts in our cell membranes that act as electric field sensors for our environment. Our food grown locally in our environment has its hydrogen stripped off and are broken down to electrons. Allopathic medicine and functional medicine remain ignorant of how charge is quantized and how that effect is brought to bear massive effects in tissue to our mitochondrial colonies. We have ten to the 14th mitochondrion in our cells. This far outstrips the bacterial colonies we have in our gut.
Anyone who tells you the microbiome control our health is some expert you need to avoid. The math of quantum biology says otherwise.
What is the special ability “time crystals” afford cells?
Time crystals could be used to build quantum devices that work at room temperatures in a wet environment. The wet environment would provide the quibits in the form of H+ and deuterium as its binary code.
Time crystals are also the first objects to spontaneously break “time-translation symmetry,” the usual rule that a stable object will remain the same throughout time. A time crystal is an engima because it is both stable and ever-changing, with special moments that come at periodic intervals in time. Its periodicity links to its accuracy as a time piece. In this way all time crystals should be thought of as flow meters to measure entropy. This is what time functionally is.
In Feynman’s 1982 paper proposing time crystals in quantum computers/devices, the physicist argued that they could be used to simulate the particles of any imaginable quantum system. A time crystal exemplifies that vision. It’s a quantum object that nature has created in your eye in the middle of your retina-hypothalamic tract, and given its complex combination of delicate ingredients it is capable of imagining and conjuring up the recipe provide to it by the local environment to create a solution for those conditions of existence that allow for the lowest entropy state. These neurons in the SCN filled with melanopsin and POMC are stirred to action to decipher the best code for cells by using nature’s most baffling laws as their substrate. The basis of their action is H+ and deuterium levels at the atomic level. My members who listened to the Kruse for Dummies lecture are probably smiling now because this blog really makes sense to them now.
SUMMARY
There have always been certain “Rules of the Road” when it comes to our Universe, and one of them is the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
This law states that when energy changes from one form to another, or when matter moves freely, entropy (disorder) in a closed system always increases. Entropy is a measure of the spread of matter and energy to everywhere in the Universe to which it has access.
The best way to understand entropy is to consider my kitchen: Every day there are dirty dishes in the sink and the countertops are covered with various substances. Every day, I wash the dishes and clean the countertops, thus decreasing their entropy, but the very next day, the sink is again full of dirty dishes and the counters are covered.
How can something move, and keep moving forever, without expending energy? At the outset, this seemed an absurd idea — a major break from the accepted laws of physics. But Wilczek’s papers on quantum and classical time crystals (the latter co-authored by Alfred Shapere of the University of Kentucky) survived a panel of expert reviewers and were published in Physical Review Letters in October 2012. Wilczek didn’t claim to know whether objects that break the symmetry of time exist in nature, but he wanted experimentalists to try to make one.
“It’s like you draw targets and wait for arrows to hit them,” he said. “If there’s no logical barrier to this behavior being realized, then I expect it will be realized.”
The experimentalist found his idea in Nature.
My axiom: What Nature does not forbid eventually occurs. This is a true evolutionary axiom. And “time crystals” seem to be one of the first states of matter cells innovated billions of years ago on Earth when life was simple in its bacterial and Archean formats.
“Time crystals” — are physical structures that move in a repeating pattern, like minute hands rounding clocks, without expending energy or ever winding down. Unlike clocks or any other known objects, time crystals derive their movement not from stored energy but from a break in the symmetry of time, enabling a special form of perpetual motion to exist. Once this idea was thought to be crazy, it is now been proven to exist in Nature.
The SCN is the most special state of matter in you because it is where your time crystal story begins and orders everything important in your cells. Something that’s this stable makes it so unusual, and because of this, special things become useful to the organism. Now it makes total sense to me why the retina wires directly to the SCN and the habenular nucleus in the thalamus.
This is how our time crystals in our eye clock tell the rest of the body to simulate the physics inside of cells. This choses what biochemical pathways are best to create the best chance of survival on that day. EVOLUTION IS HAPPENING EVERY SECOND YOU ARE ALIVE. Most have no idea this is true. When you interupt the pathway from the environment to your time crystals disease is the result.

2. “Nonlinear two-level dynamics of quantum time crystals” by S. Autti, P. J. Heikkinen, J. Nissinen, J. T. Mäkinen, G. E. Volovik, V. V. Zavyalov and V. B. Eltsov, 2 June 2022, Nature Communications.
The first primate-like mammals, or proto-primates, evolved in the early Paleocene Epoch (65.5-55.8 million years ago) at the beginning of the Cenozoic Era. They were roughly similar to squirrels and tree shrews in size and appearance. The existing, very fragmentary fossil evidence (from Asia, Europe, North Africa, and especially Western North America) suggests that they were adapted to an arboreal way of life in warm, moist climates.
They probably were equipped with relatively good eyesight as well as hands and feet adapted for climbing in trees. These primate-like mammals (Plesiadapiformes) would remain rather shadowy creatures for us until more fossil data become available. These animals bodies were rapidly changed by POMC, specifically ACTH, and the appearance of flowering plants bearing fruit loaded with deuterium. This raised their blood sugar and insulin levels to stimulate the rapid sexual development we see today in humans called precocious puberty. This is why they changed so rapidly and why they radiated so quickly once the sun returned to Earth. Slowly over time, both parts of the POMC gene sculpted early mammals to become primates in the ten million years after KT.
The primate-like mammals do not seem to have played an important role in the general transformation of terrestrial animal life immediately following the massive KT global extinction of plants and animals that occurred about 65,500,000 years ago. The most dramatic changes were brought about by the emergence of grazing and browsing mammals with tough hoofs, grinding teeth, and digestive tracts specialized for the processing of grass, leaves, and other fibrous plant materials. The evolution of these herbivorous mammals provided the opportunity for the evolution of the carnivorous mammals that specialized to eat them. Sorry, PETA but Nature does not care about ideology. These new hunters and scavengers included the evolutionary lines that would later produce the dogs, cats, and bears of our time. Adaptive radiation was resulting in the rapid evolution of new species to fill expanding ecological niches, or food-getting opportunities. Most of these new animals were placental mammals and their interiors were being filled with melanin. With the exception of bats, none of them reached Australia and New Guinea. This explains why they did not exist there until people brought them in recent times. South America had also drifted away from Africa and was no longer connected to North America after 80,000,000 years ago. However, around 20,000,000 years ago, South America reconnected with North America and placental mammals streamed in for the first time, resulting in the extinction of most of the existing marsupials there.
The beginning of the Eocene Epoch (55.8-33.9 million years ago) coincides with the emergence of early forms of most of the placental mammal orders that are present today. In addition, placental mammals with larger bodies and bigger brains began to appear in the fossil record at this time. Paul Falkowski has suggested that this is due to the fact that the amount of oxygen in the earth’s atmosphere more or less doubled around 50 million years ago. Larger mammals have relatively fewer capillaries for the distribution of oxygen to the cells of their bodies. Subsequently, they must breathe air that is more oxygenated. Brains have especially high oxygen requirements. In addition, pregnant placental mammals must transmit a substantial portion of the oxygen in their blood to their fetuses. Coinciding with the increase in atmospheric oxygen at the beginning of the Eocene Epoch was a relatively abrupt global warming of 9-16 F. (5-9 C.) lasting at least 200,000 years. This also would have been a major factor in the rapid evolution of animals and plants at the time. Overall, climates were significantly warmer during the Eocene than now. There were crocodiles in the Arctic, pine forests in the Antarctic, and palm trees in Wyoming. There was no polar ice. As a consequence, sea levels were close to 330 feet higher than today. Sea rise is likely critical in the primate clade for future encephalization.
The first true primates evolved 55 million years ago or a bit earlier, near the beginning of the Eocene Epoch. Their fossils have been found in North America, Europe, and Asia. They looked different from the primates today. They were still somewhat squirrel-like in size and appearance, but apparently, they had grasping hands and feet that were increasingly more efficient in manipulating objects and climbing trees. The position of their eyes indicates that they were developing more effective stereoscopic vision as well.
Major evolutionary changes were beginning in some of the Eocene prosimians that foreshadow species yet to come. Their brains and eyes were becoming larger, while their snouts were getting smaller. At the base of a skull, there is a hole through which the spinal cord passes. This opening is the foramen magnum (literally the “large hole or opening” in Latin). The position of the foramen magnum is a strong indicator of the angle of the spinal column to the head and subsequently, whether the body is habitually horizontal (like a horse) or vertical (like a monkey). During the Eocene, the foramen magnum in some primate species was beginning to move from the back of the skull toward the center. This suggests that they were beginning to hold their bodies erect while hopping and sitting, like modern lemurs, galagos, and tarsiers. By the end of the Eocene Epoch, many of the prosimian species had become extinct. This may be connected with cooler temperatures which helped drive the evolution of wide-band gapped semiconductors in cells because they work better to create more VUV light to sculpt the mammalian body plan and the appearance of the first monkeys during the transition to the next geologic epoch, the Oligocene period happens about 34 million years ago.
Early Monkeys and Apes
The body size of mammals in many species lines progressively increased after the end of the age of dinosaurs as they took advantage of the vast expanses of land and plant food made available by the extinction of the giant reptiles. The biggest land mammals ever to live evolved around 39-40 million years ago (near the end of the Eocene Epoch) and flourished during the subsequent Oligocene Epoch (33.9-23 million years ago). The largest of them was a hornless rhinoceros (Indricotherium transouralicum) living in Eurasia that weighed 16.5 tons (15,000 kg.) and stood 18 feet (5.5 m.) at the shoulders. By comparison, the biggest African elephants today weigh 6.7 tons (6,046 kg.) and stand 13 feet (4 m.) at the shoulders.
Unfortunately, the Oligocene Epoch was largely a gap in the primate fossil record in most parts of the world. This is especially true for prosimian fossils. Most of what we know about them came from the Fayum deposits in Western Egypt. While this area is a desert today, 36-31 million years ago it was a tropical rainforest on the edge of a large lake or sea. The marine chain was always close to these animals.
Monkeys evolved during the early Oligocene or possibly near the end of the Eocene. Their ancestors were most likely prosimians. These monkeys were the first species of our infra order–the Anthropoidea. Several genera of early monkeys have been identified. Apidium and Aegyptopithecus are the most well-known. The former was about the size of a fat squirrel (2-3 pounds or .9-1.4 kg.), while the latter was the size of a small dog (13-20 pounds or 5.9-9.1 kg.). Compared to the prosimians, they had fewer teeth, less fox-like snouts, larger brains, and increasingly more forward-looking eyes. These and other anatomical features suggest that the early monkeys were becoming mostly diurnal fruit and seed-eating forest tree-dwellers.
New World monkeys appeared for the first time about 30 million years ago. It is generally thought that they began as isolated groups of Old World monkeys that somehow drifted to South America either from North America or Africa on large clumps of vegetation and soil. The evidence suggests that Africa is the most likely continent of origin. Such “floating islands” produced as a result of powerful storms tearing at the land still occur in tropical regions of the world today. It is likely that other kinds of small animals were transported to South America in this way as well.
Due to the comparative scarcity of Oligocene Epoch prosimians in the fossil record, it is generally believed that the monkeys out-competed and replaced them in most environments at that time. Supporting this hypothesis is the fact that modern prosimians either live in locations where monkeys and apes are absent or they are normally active only at nighttime when most of the larger, more intelligent primates are sleeping.
The Oligocene was an epoch of major geological change with resulting regional climate shifts that likely affected the direction of evolution and altered fossil preservation conditions. By the beginning of the Oligocene, North America, and Europe drifted apart and became distinct continents. The Great Rift Valley system of East Africa also was formed during the Oligocene along a 1200-mile-long volcanically active fault zone between tectonic plates that are moving away from each other. We believe this is the cradle of man.

This created an easy north-south regional migration route for animals. Around 120 million years ago, the tectonic plate that forms the Indian subcontinent began to rapidly drift north across the Indian Ocean from Antarctica. By 50.5 million years ago, India began crashing into Asia at a rate of 10-12 inches (25-30 cm.) a year and continues to do so today forming the Sahara desert. The crashing of India turned a rainforest and ocean in Africa into a desert. This has progressively forced up the Himalayan chain of mountains and the high Tibetan Plateau beyond. During the Oligocene, the continuing growth of this immense barrier altered continental weather patterns significantly by redirecting the summer monsoonal rains to the east. This created a vast arid rain shadow region in Central Asia and very likely triggered global climate changes. The cooling and drying trend with the associated expansion of grasslands that had begun in the late Eocene Epoch accelerated, especially in the northern hemisphere. A result was the general disappearance of primates from these northern areas. However, climates in most regions were still warmer than today.
By 16-14 million years ago, in the middle of the Miocene Epoch (23-5.3 million years ago), the ongoing movement of tectonic plates in the Great Rift Valley system created new volcanic mountain chains in east Central Africa. These in turn altered local weather patterns. Some areas became wetter while others more arid due to local rain shadows. In addition, the progressive global cooling trend continued. Growing polar ice caps reduced the amount of water in the oceans, causing sea levels to drop. This exposed previously submerged coastal lands. As a result of this and continental drift, a land connection was reestablished between Africa and Eurasia along the eastern Mediterranean Sea coast that provided a migration route for primates and other animals between these continents. Much of the East African and South Asian tropical forests began to be replaced by sparse woodlands and dry grasslands because of climate changes. As a result, there were new selective pressures affecting primate evolution.
Primate fossils are common from the Miocene. However, not all primates are equally represented in the fossil record. Apes apparently evolved from monkeys early in this epoch. Fossil monkeys and prosimians are comparatively rare from most of the Miocene, but apes are common. It appears that apes at that time occupied some ecological niches that would later be filled by monkeys. One of the earliest of the monkey-to-ape transitional primates was Proconsul. It lived in African forests 21-14 million years ago.
Among the numerous Miocene primate species were the ancestors of all modern apes and humans. By 14 million years ago, the group of apes that included our ancestors were apparently in the process of adapting to life on the edges of the expanding savannas in Southern Europe. They were very likely members of the genus Dryopithecus, which were generally similar in appearance to modern African apes. These apes evolved mostly during a relatively short global heat wave that began around 15 million years ago. This caused enough polar ice to melt so that sea levels once again rose 80-130 feet.
Toward the end of the Miocene, less hospitable cooler conditions in the northern hemisphere once again caused many primate species to become extinct while some survived by migrating south into Africa and South Asia where it remained relatively warm. About 8-9 million years ago, the descendants of the dryopithecines. in Africa diverged into two lines–one that led to gorillas and another to humans, chimpanzees, and bonobos. Around 7 million years ago, a further divergence occurred which separated the ancestors of modern chimpanzees and bonobos from the early hominins (human-like primates) that were our direct ancestors.
Who Are We, Really?
The more clearly we can focus our attention on the wonders and realities of the universe about us the less taste we shall have for the destruction of our species. Wonder and humility are wholesome emotions, and they do not exist side by side with a lust for destruction. Where we invest our time and attention is MORE important than how we invest our money. Time is the most valuable asset most waste. Do things in life, be clenched, and curious. Do not wait for inspiration’s shove or society’s kiss on your forehead. Pay attention. In fact, pay deep attention. It’s all about paying attention. Attention is vital to your humanity. It connects you with others. It makes you eager, to learn and be curious.
If you are a paleoanthropologist or archeologist you think fossils are the Rosetta Stone for discovering the path that human evolution took. If you are a proteomic evolutionary biochemist you think molecular arrays are the best way to decipher the tea leaves of Mother Nature ways. If you are a geneticist you think RNA/DNA is the Holy Grail of human evolution. If you are a dental specialist, like University of Arkansas professor, Dr. Peter Ungar you think it’s all about the mammalian teeth.
Today’s bro scientists on the internet like to define evolutionary thinking by thinking about the Paleolithic epoch and how it might have shaped the hominid tree. The Paleolithic shaped the tree to be sure, but had nothing to do with planting the acorn. What we came from was alien to who we are now.
Our complexity came from a binary code that became more able to bend and expand the neural tube of primates. Bringing melanin into our interiors was the key to creating those bends and encephalizing primates.
We are silly talking monkeys whose body plan was sculpted by light captured by melanin that charge separated water to augment the power plant buried in biochemistry and mitochondria.
Clock genes were used to coordinate all zip codes inside the Jacquard cards of biochemistry to measure the overall flow of energy to extract information about where the Earth is in relation to the sun. The sun created the most powerful protein in Earth’s history because it can harvest the power of the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Water was the plasma for most of Earth’s history, but nature created melanin to work with water something unique occurred. The binary code of life that builds order from chaos begins by deciphering the code that exists between H+ and deuterium separated from water and plugged into ancient biochemical pathways to sculpt something new.
Metabolic pathways called the PPP and TCA cycle control the fractionation of hydrogen isotopes in mammals, and as such, determine morphogenesis in the neural tube because it places with precision where the isotopes have to be located to create the bends needed in the notochord to build a human brain from a primate’s brain.
Metabolism is 100% controlled by the SCN optical lattice clock in your eye. Melatonin acts here. Without that precision, there would be an improper mix of lipids at the lipid rafts that control the morphogenetic plan of humans. That precision of lipid (DHA/cholesterol) content allowed for maximum absorption of sunlight to create an electric current that could control deuterium with its large magnetic moment.
Melatonin controls the 2 change programs in mitochondria and mitochondrial create melatonin and water. In the above 4 slides, you see how hydrogen is being moved in these boxcars. Changing the isotope of hydrogen changes everything in the mammal body and brain plan. This is how primates changed.
Melatonin is made from a time crystal that controls the timing mechanism in all zip codes of the cells as it changes. This means when hydrogen or deuterium is added to its back it changes its timing mechanism. This leads to more bending of the neural plate in locations it occurs in the brain.
Cells of the mammalian grow and divide at different rates because of the amount of deuterium and hydrogen in them. This created NEW neural folds that allowed for a new plan to develop from the primate brain. These quantum processes are regulated by a complex interplay between the underlying notochord and overlying ectoderm, by putting hydrogen isotopes in specific places on signaling molecules used in brain growth. These semiconductive proteins are called Sonic Hedgehog (Shh), bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP2), and noggin. They operate via the Jacquard card of the Wnt signaling pathway that has been used in life all the way bad to the first form of life on Earth. The differential growth of the neurons between those bends is wholly linked to deuterium content as its different magnetic moment interacts with electric currents from the lipid rafts in the embryo to cause the issue. The sun is the source of that information current.
The seasonal light stress that primates faced was sensed by the non-visual photoreceptive proteins and POMC. This non-visual system was designed by Nature to allow mammals to alter the fat content in their lipid rafts to better handle UV light. This is why cholesterol also has an absorption spectra of 220nm light. Most do not know this. When UV light returns to the mammalian environment membranes sense the change non-visually and this information is sent to their colony of mitochondria where a redox shift occurred involving mTOR.
380 nm UV light captured by neuropsin sends an anabolic electrical signal onward in mammal embryos. This was connected to 290-320nm light captured by cholesterol to create Vitamin D. Cholesterol and neuropsin are non-visual photoreceptors. Cholesterol and Vitamin D3 are nearly identical in chemical structure. Full-spectrum sunlight naturally sulfates both of these photoreceptors. The only difference in both bio-molecules is a single double bond in the second ring of the cholesterol backbone. This gives Vitamin D3 one less hydrogen atom than the closed ring of cholesterol. Hydrogen is the chameleon sculptor.
Sulfation makes chemicals more water-soluble. Now we can see why water pathways in the brain became so important in humans and the way their brains were used.
This electrical information from the non-visual system acted like Morse code to the hypothalamus in the embryos of primates which were gaining more melanocytes as primates lost their hair. That internalization of melanin created more POMC neurons inside the skull which created more beta lipotropin peptide from POMC cleavage. This created more HDL cholesterol in the skin of these transitioning primates. Sunlight also sulfates this HDL version of cholesterol Why? Sulfated HDL cholesterol has more electron density at its electronic level and this makes it another ideal nonvisual skin photoreceptor. It also changes how the other non-visual photoreceptor in the skin which is more famous operates. That is the vitamin D machinery in the skin. Vitamin D is linked up to the non-visual photoreceptor system Vitamin, namely Vitamin A at the RXR receptor.
This signal is also picked up in the eye at the RPE of the retina. This information was sent to the hypothalamus to also assist in the mammals changing the surfaces and bending of the notochord. This was all done by fractionation of the isotopic mix of hydrogen which affected the translation of the POMC gene. The bending of the notochord in primates lead to movements of the foramen magnum of primates from the immediate back of the head to the center of the head to help bipedalism. In favt bipedalism was the first thing to change in humans from chimps.
At term, the human fetus has about 13 % of body weight as fat, a key form of energy insurance supporting brain development that is not found in other primates. The location of neonatal fat is mostly subcutaneous while the brain is still underdeveloped. What does fat become in human metabolism? CO2 and metabolic water. That water is the fuel source to build our brains. As we lost hair we expanded the eccrine sweat glands on our skin to eliminate deuterium from sweating and this also cooled our surfaces to allow melanin’s ability to charge separate water to become more efficient.
A human child at birth cannot walk or talk. This makes them unique in the primate tree. They also lost most of their hair exposing their skin to the sun. Most of their melanin was imported to their interiors while their brains developed. As the brain matured, the child lost much of its subcutaneous fat. It almost seems that the survival of the fattest (primate infant) was the key to human brain evolution. It should be no surprise that the leptin-melanocortin pathway controls that biology by way of POMC.
The proopiomelanocortin (POMC) gene was most likely derived from an ancestral opioid-coding gene following the 1R chordate genome duplication event. During the radiation of the jawless fish, the POMC organization plan emerged multiple melanocortin sequences (α-MSH/ACTH and β-MSH) and a C-terminally extended opioid sequence (β-endorphin).
Following the 2R genome duplication event, the γ-MSH sequence was gained. Among the jawed vertebrates, three distinct trends in the evolution of the POMC gene are apparent: the gain of the δ-MSH sequence (cartilaginous fish), the loss of the γ-MSH sequence (ray-finned fish), and the retention of the post 2R POMC organization plan (lobe-finned fish/tetrapods). POMC is synthesized in the pituitary gland and in neurons of the hypothalamus, where an array of posttranslational processing mechanisms, such as endoproteolytic cleavage and N-acetylation, generate distinct sets of end-products in these tissues.
The most striking feature of the melanocortin end-products is the rigorous conservation of the primary sequence of α-MSH and the first 25 amino acids of ACTH throughout the family of mammals. That stronghold has lasted for the entire evolutionary history of mammals on Earth.
Does Nature make mistakes?
Melanin, our wide-band semiconductor made from alpha MSH, and ACTH sculpted our morphologic and physiological change without any major changes to our genomes. They used the binary code of hydrogen and deuterium with sunlight to do the job. That story was covered in my first Kruse for Dummies lecture.
The binary code of life is the isotopic variation of hydrogen and deuterium parsed through the human Jacquard loom. That loom was the POMC gene of mammals. The result of the code interacting with the loom was a gorgeous wide band gapped semiconductor that sculpted the subatomic world inside of cells to create the most intricate fabric the universe has to date. Humans.
