Be a Crackerjack Mechanic Healing and medical science has become so over-complicated and confusing that practical measures can escape even the most studious physician. We need to simplify protocols and practices that work and skip many downstream details and "studies without solutions" which become overridden and irrelevant in basic bioenergetic theory. Remember that we require a certain operational voltage just to remain alive and that addressing redox balances raises all boats as it restores biochemical function. It is only logical to concentrate on correcting what organic farmers call "cultural practices" to provide the basic conditions needed for the health of plants and animals allowing them to thrive. Electrons! It can not be argued that solar energy in the form of photons does not power all living cells and organisms, or that oxidation/oxidative stress/inflammation/burning-rust is the opposing destructive force, also essential in immune response. Still few look upstream to the source. Though pharmaceutical interests buried this line of thinking over 50 years ago, it is truly baffling that alternative health researchers generally fail to acknowledge the 800lb fact as well; that life is governed by redox principles and that raising system voltage is goal one. How can we ignore the findings of Albert Szent-Gyorgyi (colleague of Warburg and Krebs) back in 1939 or more recently Linus Pauling and Fredrick Klenner or currently Doctors Thomas Levy, Russel Jaffe, Jack Kruse, Mark Sircus, Suzanne Humphries, Margreet Vissers(NZ), Gerald Pollack, Steve Hickey, Hillary Roberts, Andrew Saul plus The Riordan Clinic and others? ***Anyone serious about taking control of their health should understand how their body works and avoid the suffering that will undoubtedly ensue in the game of life. Stop and google redox, pH, oxidative stress and inflammation to begin. Then read, study and learn the language of science; look up any terms you are unfamiliar with and the physicians and scientists mentioned above. A few hours a week will illuminate the big picture and next year you will know,... and be able to thrive and avoid the pain that comes to the unaware with age. Go slow. En fuego, Inflamm-itis ORP, oxidation-reduction potential, follows pH (log of acid-base balance) and describes electron populations and the whole-body charge terrain of biological systems; no electron voltage, no energy, no oxygen, no cell replication, no life,... car no go! "Downstream details" like DNA expression, RNA synthesis of enzymes and balanced hormone production are downstream from this unavoidable biological fact of chemistry and physics. So let's take a look at what determines this fundamental balance, and a few of the pathways involved. I would argue that low system charge/low redox potential is the source of most all "labeled diseases" which manifest in an array of symptoms in various parts of the body. This is an extremely bold statement, but since inflammation, the 800lb "-itis" in the room, has been widely recognized as the common denominator, one has only to look at what inflammation is in basic chemical terms. Again, inflammation like rust and fire is a loss of electrons and a balance shift toward oxidation to some degree or other. Science is coming to the realization that positive/negative charge differentials is how the universe, water, weather, gravity, your radio and living organisms work, not to mention the boy-girl thing. In practical terms, our falsely celebrated industrial technologies with their sloppy production of chemical oxidants and acids that pollute the globe and our bodies ARE THE DISEASE. No scientist has yet been able to find a flaw in this approach that has cured thousands and better yet, prevented disease in many more. The Motors Metabolism is the central generator of ATPs/voltage that power life. We burn electron-rich carbon bonds constructed by photosynthesis in the plant kingdom. These carbon bonds, either directly from sugars/fats/proteins in plant foods or restructured in animals, are processed in our gut system with the help of acids, enzymes and include value added substances produced by microbes, and is delivered to the liver and on to mitochondrial furnaces. The efficiency or inefficiency of these electric generators is key and subject to dietary fuel blend, liver function, speed of circulation, delivery of oxygen, antioxidant protection of mitochondrial membranes, availability of various cofactors, expression of DNA, etc. When too much sugar enters bloodstream and jams into mitochondria it surpasses oxygen delivery capabilities and an acidic condition results which refuses further oxygen penetration and gnaws away at cell structures; oxidative stress/inflammation. This is why ketogenic diets, fats over carbs and things like coconut oil, avocados, grass fed meats and intermittent fasting have entered the conversation. Electrical Grid Body charge is affected by the electrolyte minerals (magnesium, potassium, sodium and bicarbonate) which transfer electrons and buffer pH in blood and body fluids; we don't want acidic H+ protons to destroy valuable O2 making water, H2O. Cell membranes must also be charge conductive to transport materials effectively. Made of phospho-lipids, membrane transport is crippled by oxidized unsaturated fats as found in processed vegetable oils and trans fats, but improved by a proper balance of Omega 3 fats and saturated fats. Also critical is the connective tissue matrix where acupuncture chi flows, electrons of course, and must be maintained with collagenous proteins as found in bone broths and constructed with the help of ascorbate/Vitamin C. Think cell structures, tissues, how they are built and how they work on water interfaces and charge separation. We manufacture antioxidants like sulfur-based glutathione and SOD in house, and also build charge from sunbathing and radiant heat, and earthing ostensibly via our main component; water. We gather extra electrons from a multitude of electron rich substances that easily donate electrons like antioxidant vitamins, polyphenols, molecular hydrogen/H2 and negative environmental ions so prevalent in forests and on oceans, all according to intestinal/neurological/emotional tonus. Power Theft Charge is stolen by inflammation/oxidative stress, now recognized as the mother of all chronic disease and bad ageing. Inflammation is a normal healing immune reaction to pathogens, bio-toxins and stress. Electron theft can become chronic via low grade oxidants like cumulative heavy metals that may take decades before a named disease is diagnosed. In this category are pharmaceutical drugs, fluoridation, vaccination, deficient and toxic processed foods that start with chemical/GMO agriculture/glyphosate/BT toxin. Air and water pollution, toothpastes, dental amalgams and infections, body care products, sunscreens, plastics, off-gassing construction materials, dirty electromagnetic sources like cell phones/wifi/certain appliances and lack of sleep pile up... and the list goes on. Dirt in The Tank/ Clogged Filters Glyphosate and the BT toxin in wheat, corn, legumes and grain fed meats may be the largest contributor to the explosion of autism, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, depression and cancers over the last 25 years. Both of these chemicals cause leaky gut and leaky blood brain barriers. Glyphosate is not only an antibiotic destroying friendly bacteria leading to gut dysbiosis and non production of ketones and serotonin, but it ties up many minerals required in enzymatic processes and antioxidant formation. Like fluorine compounds, glyphosate can be considered a deadly enzyme poison, tying up zinc, manganese and selenium so critical for essential enzyme production. BT sprayed on caterpillars causes their outer membrane to leak, they shrivel before your eyes. The BT gene, artificially, transplanted into the DNA of corn can also translocate into gut bacteria, hijacking their biochemistry to continually punch holes in the intestines. Government protective agencies proclaim all this deadly crap is safe? Troubleshooting A good definition of Holistic Practice is the art and science of taking all factors into account under four broad headings; nutrition, toxicities, lifestyle habits and emotional balance. Singular drugs or supplements are usually bad answers promoted on behalf of financial interests and mumbo-jumbo marketeers; stay tuned, fresh gimmicks based on fragmentary evidence appear constantly so follow the money. And look at the remedies that have been outlawed or discredited by conventional medicine using fraudulent studies (one can also win by sabotaging competition). Things like sunbathing, hyperbaric oxygen, GcMAF, Rife, cannabinoids and the forbidden Vitamin C were made taboo. These off-insurance ideas must come out of pocket, after folks have already been extorted to pay huge premiums for pharma-care. On the other hand, those who can't imagine how these "alternative" therapies might work have no inkling how bioenergy is involved in healing and will not use them. A well nourished, pro-bacterially colonized, properly vitamined and mineralized, exercised and oxygenated organism in a happy unstressed state will produce strong voltage, rapidly eliminate toxins and be free of infections and disease. Unfortunately most Americans are deficient in these areas. When problems crop up there are major pathways to consider and address. Hair metal/mineral analysis, CRP (level of inflammation), pH and Vitamin D3 tests, along with apparent symptoms can help direct corrective measures. Important to note that deficiencies require BIG or BIGGER doses within a comprehensive protocol and time to correct them. Most health articles focus on named symptoms like gingivitis, arthritis or cancer usually followed by a drug or supplement recommendation. Instead we can look at correcting life-essential conditions to reverse the singular low-voltage "disease" holistically. The goal is to raise bio-energy/body charge/ORP-redox potential and you will notice similar elements in effective protocols for a range of conditions. As in a radio or car, fresh batteries pull in distant stations and return function to starters and accessories. A concerted holistic approach targeted upstream simplifies our efforts in organized fashion.... White Gas or Bio-Diesel Start with the gut and nutritional inputs. The human gut is perfectly analogous to garden soil. There must be organic materials and a bounty of minerals for legions of soil microbes to breakdown and furnish complete nutrition to a plant's roots. Ignorant farmers poison their soil with toxic fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides destroying microbial diversity feeding their pathetic crops directly with chemical mineral salts. Their produce swells quickly with water and looks like the real thing, but has little nutritive value, low antioxidant polyphenol content, poor flavor and only a fraction of the bio-energy found in items grown in live soil. Modern feedlot animals like humans have similarly been switched off to an easily absorbed standard American diet of processed grains and sugars. Gut biomes are devastated by grain/sugar-heavy meals and do not yield bacterially value-added nutrients or essential immune factors, but become putrid breeding grounds for pathogens and begin to leak their bio-toxins and stray proteins through intestinal linings poisoning the bloodstream. The body reacts by over-producing antibodies and nagalese which down regulate immune macrophages only to allow systemic infections, cancers, allergic reactions, autism, autoimmune conditions and general inflammation (AKA loss of voltage/redox potential and bio-energy). Vaccines and various substances injected directly into the bloodstream have similar deleterious effects. Many of the "wonders" of modern technology are killing us and our biosphere. Using a drug to correct conditions resulting from this scenario makes absolutely no sense when you can address problems at the root level. Many times pharmaceuticals multiply the misery. Survival depends on situational awareness of factors that do not directly meet the eye. I have found that an organic/non GMO low carb, high fat and moderate protein diet is fundamental. That means gardening, shopping farm markets and scratch cooking with raw organic produce, meats, raw milks, free range eggs and making bone broths. Next I dose big with sodium ascorbate made from pure Vitamin C crystals fizzed w baking soda and water, on the order of 20 to 50 or more grams per day broken up into bowel tolerance doses taken a half hour before meals and at bedtime. Doses of 100 to 150 grams of ascorbate can be given intravenously in case of poisoning, brain swelling, sepsis, pneumonia or other acute emergency. C Now? The thing about Vitamin C is that its easily donated electrons immediately begin to raise system charge and drop inflammation. The addition of baking soda neutralizes ascorbic acid turning it into palatable sodium ascorbate and helps alkalize, oxygenate and preserve electrons while improving flow of blood and lymph. Vitamin C is a great detoxifier which demolishes toxins as it charge-mobilizes metals ( molecules stick or unstick due to charge attractions/repulsions) to be eliminated with the help of chlorella, charcoal, fulvic acid or clay. Metals like mercury, aluminum, lead, cadmium and free iron source oxidative stress by continually catalyzing the production of destructive hydroxyl free radicals... so detox those metals! Hot unpaired reactive oxygen radicals oxidize all cell structures and are responsible for serious inflammation, disease and rapid ageing, Raising charge powers white cells and macrophage disposal units, and speeds the elimination of toxins that would otherwise stagnate and further steal charge...... Megadose Vitamin C taken orally or IV also generates hydrogen peroxide, the flipside of anti-oxidant action; pure intra-cellular immune oxidation that destroys pathogens, cancers and cell debris. "Unfortunately" Vitamin C/ascorbic acid is a cheap commodity only rarely mentioned by health gurus. The common admonition to avoid "synthetic" Vitamin C/ascorbic acid was probably started by marketers of pricey C preparations. You should now know that Vitamin C/sodium ascorbate is used strictly as a bulk electron source orally and via IV, the reason for its effectiveness, and that obtaining therapeutic electron dosages from food sources is absurd, ever try to eat a bushel of limes? Dosage is always individual according to one's level of inflammation, to quantitatively extinguish the fires of oxidation which result from every insult and the bodies natural reaction to them. Vitamin C is the key healing and maintenance supplement in my "forbidden protocol" which includes minerals, polyphenols, occasional natural antiobiotics, mindfullness and healthy lifestyle choices; all in the context of an organic diet. It can be performed safely and inexpensively at home which may explain its lack of popularity across the health industry? Operational Tips Things like exercise, sunbathing, sauna, occasional fasting and outdoor recreation intersect with breathing meditations and staying in the eternal infinite now. Recognize or avoid the media campaign of fear; it tugs at the ego and strips one's power of will and intent "for the benefit of the herd" as it buries the military industrial agenda deep in the psyche to control the minds of the public. This would include all the gratuitous gun violence and military drama; monkey see... monkey do. Also included in the don't be fooled category is the network creation of foreign enemies and domestic divisions over political party, racial, gender, religious and sexual orientation lines,... divide and conquer. Admittedly, natural energy healing is a bit complex, but cheap, doable at home and safe; many thousands of papers, books and blogs have been written. Though positive results appear in the matter of a few days, it does take some study and discipline to reclaim vigorous health which comes easily when the big picture comes into focus, like changing oil. An even bigger picture exposes industrial man's suicidal technologies. Beside weapons and fossil fuels, ...chemical agriculture and pharmaceutical drugs are the major vector of disease, infertility and depopulation. Only the aware will survive and reproduce. Is this a conspiracy or simple corporate greed? Is this an artificial evolutionary step to selectively remove the useless, gullible and ignorant among us? Only time will tell, or maybe never. Keep asking yourself questions in an effort to truly understand concepts that linger in the mist and eventually the sun will come out.
