1. When inflammation is present in the brain (excess protons or too few electrons), the three fundamental laws of nature are altered in our tissues. This causes them to decrease their ability to deliver higher levels of oxygen to the neocortex below to maintain proper cognitive function. This decreased oxygen density over specific portions of the neocortex acts to limit its function, relative to other areas of the neocortex by changing proton conduction.
Image
2. This single event uncouples mitochondrion in the neocortex and it raises that neuron’s basal metabolic rate. A chronic raised basal metabolic rate leads to cerebrovascular diseases because it increases mitochondrial respiration and the amount of physiologic work a cell has to do. This is why ALL brain diseases are associated with atherosclerosis at a core level. This is precisely how leptin resistance causes a neuro-cognitive decline in humans.
Image
3. The CSF around the hypothalamus becomes less dense and has a higher temperature with higher levels of cytokines in it, causing us to lose energy/info to the environment. We’ve known for a long time that only two things lower metabolic rates in living things, strong solar stimulus, and cooling. This changes the hydrogen bonding network possible in CSF. The problem for medicine is that these scaling laws of energy flux have not made it into clinical medicine as yet. This loss of energy means less oxygen is delivered to the neurons in the hypothalamus, which is designed to work optimally when there is harmony and energy balance in humans.
Image
4. This is why in EMF 2, I told you the leptin receptor was an ‘account’ of photons, protons, and electrons. All bits of matter that make things up roughly have equal numbers of electrons and protons. The number of photons varies. The basics of what most people forget are that if this were not so, there would be an excess of a positive or negative charge, and this would create a massive force pushing all the excess charge out, leaving behind a core group of neutral charges.
5. When sunlight moves electrons/protons in us with the energy in light waves it alters the arrangement of our bio-molecules and changes their thermodynamics. A change in an arrangement is a change in the "information" in the system. Different molecular arrangements have different energies/information associated with them. This difference in energy/info is how bio-molecules are quantized to light frequencies. It also explains how metabolic networks became coupled to terrestrial solar frequencies.
Image
6. The brain evolved, I believe to order this process using solar frequencies between 250-780 nm. The circadian signals are how that energy harmony is translated from the outside world to the inner workings of biochemistry. When these signals are off for any reason at all, we begin to lose energy to our environment by emitting black box radiation from our bodies. Essentially, we are losing captured sunlight, and this decreases the amount of physiologic work a cell can do. This means in illness cells are losing energy at the vibrational or electronic level and can no longer remain a dissipative structure.

7. Prigogine defined dissipative structures and their role in thermodynamic systems far from equilibrium, a discovery that won him the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1977. In summary, Ilya Prigogine discovered that the importation and dissipation of energy into chemical systems could result in the emergence of new structures (hence dissipative structures) due to internal self-reorganization. In his 1955 text, Prigogine drew connections between dissipative structures and the Rayleigh-Bénard instability, and the Turing mechanism.  Prigogine's theorem is germane to these ideas.

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 is probably the single most important dissipative structure that life is based upon in cells.  According to 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.
8. Indeterminism is the opposite of determinism and is related to chance.  Chance is related to probability. In science, most specifically quantum theory in physics links directly to probability and not cause and effect.  Indeterminism is the belief that no event is certain and the entire outcome of anything is probabilistic. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and the "Born rule", proposed by Max Born, are often starting points in support of the indeterministic nature of the universe.  Indeterminism is also asserted by Sir Arthur Eddington and Murray Gell-Mann. Indeterminism has been promoted by the French biologist Jacques Monod's essay "Chance and Necessity". Ilya Prigogine argued for indeterminism in complex systems.
9. At life's genesis chaos has to gain order.  Dissipative structure theory really aims to solve this problem for biology by using physics.
Dissipative structure theory led to pioneering research in self-organizing systems, as well as philosophical inquiries into the formation of complexity on biological entities and the quest for a creative and irreversible role of time in the natural sciences.

There is a well-known theorem of minimum entropy production derived by Prigogine, which states that entropy exported from a system reaches a minimum, or becomes zero, at thermodynamic equilibrium and at steady states close to thermodynamic equilibrium. Prigogine's theorem is a direct consequence of Onsager's reciprocity relationship which holds at steady states close to thermodynamic equilibrium. The principle of internal entropy compensation, is in addition to, and implies the principle of minimum entropy production, and may even be valid in regimes far from thermodynamic equilibrium.
Image
10. He had some very interesting things to say about TIME in his work and Nobel Prize speech.  You should watch it sometime. I think they are key to understanding circadian biology and timing. All of our time reversible equations in physics created by Newton, Einstein, and Schrödinger describe a simplification of what actually occurs in nature. We live our lives with eyes blinkered, dismissing reality as the exception to our neatly formed approximations of what time really is.
11. Time is a critical issue for dissipative systems.  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 ‘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.
Image
12. His theories offer us another possibility of some form of enthalpy-entropy compensation, as mentioned in my work in connection with enzyme catalysis, so that coherent energy is conserved in organelles in the cell, with no entropy generated. This is maintained by the atomic organization of atoms in a cell. The system could be arbitrarily far away from equilibrium, so long as, at some sufficiently macroscopic space-time of interest, the overall balance is attained, and the net entropy production of the system either vanishes or reaches a minimum.

The internal balance of entropy production means that the system maintains its organized heterogeneity or dynamic order. It is in turn dependent on energy flow being symmetrically coupled and cyclically closed over the system as a whole. In other words, it depends on the validity of Onsager's reciprocity relationship in systems far from thermodynamic equilibrium.
13. Circadian time stamping is done AFTER DNA is translated. This implies that the genetic code is not the primary issue in diseases and health creation. Time stamping is due to his theorems of Prigogine. Circadian time stamping also puts undue stress on our cell’s mitochondrion and they begin to act less like a part of our cellular design and more like a captured slave bacteria that they really are.  Since a mitochondrion has bacterial origins, most of man’s chronic diseases look like infectious diseases at the core.  This is deceptive because this viewpoint does not go down to the most critical level to understand how subatomic charged particles behave at small scales with the electromagnetic forces that light waves can impart to them.
Image
14. One of the hallmarks of the living system in cells is that they are exquisitely sensitive to specific, weak signals. Most of these signals are electromagnetic in nature. The human eye can detect single photons falling on the retina, which pass information directly to the SCN and all its mitochondria. This retina is where the light-sensitive photoreceptors in cells send out an action potential that represents a million-fold amplification of the energy in the photon. This defines what a non-linear stimulus is. Some of you know it by the butterfly effect.

It is not just a property of the central retinal pathways. The entire system is a plasma or syncytium of excitable matter ready to react to the environment's EMF signals. Similarly, a few molecules of pheromones in the air are sufficient to attract male insects to their mates. This sensitivity is characteristic of all parts of the system and is a consequence of the energy stored = related to the AMO physics of organization.

No part of the system has to be pushed or pulled into action, nor be subjected to mechanical regulation and control. Instead, coordinated action of all the parts depends on rapid intercommunication throughout the system because of how it is built to react to light. The organism is a system of “excitable media” (syncytium) — excitable cells and tissues poised to respond specifically and disproportionately to weak signals because a large amount of energy stored everywhere automatically amplifies weak signals. These signals often direct things in cells into macroscopic actions. This is how order is built from chaos in a dissipative structure described by Prigogine's theorem.

1. Today's lesson comes from my forum.

Dr. Rob asks me the following:

" Jack, based on your recent cancer blogs and critique of Seyfrieds Metabolic and Levin‘s bioelectric models - it’s clear your photo bioelectric framework is correct.

A Photo-Bioelectric Coordination Hypothesis of Cancer

I propose a framework in which cancer represents a system-level collapse of photo-bioelectric coordination, rather than a primary genetic, metabolic, or bioelectric disease. In this model, organismal integrity depends on a coordinated Organ Trinity:

The Organ Trinity: Light, Shadow, and Darkness

In health, organismal integrity depends on coordination between these three central organs, each operating in a distinct but complementary energetic mode:

The hypothalamus functions as a photonic interpreter. It translates environmental light into biological time, establishing circadian phase and temporal order. This is the domain of Light - timing, anticipation, and synchrony.

The liver acts as a photoelectric buffer and decision hub. It integrates metabolic load, redox stress, toxins, and fuels, determining whether the organism should proceed, pause, or shift strategy. This is the domain of Shadow - adaptation, buffering, and reversible retreat.

The heart provides continuous charge circulation. Its uninterrupted electrical and mechanical activity sustains organism-wide coherence and regenerative safety. This is the domain of Darkness—ongoing work, continuity, and renewal.

These organs are coordinated through nested signalling layers: photonic information (including circadian light and UPEs), photoelectric transduction (via cytochrome c oxidase, heme proteins, and melanin-like systems), and organism-wide DC bioelectric fields consistent with Becker's work on the perineural system and endogenous DCs..
2. Dr. Rob's questions continue.....

"Photons as Primary Biological Drivers

This framework explicitly positions photons as the primary informational input in biology, with bioelectricity emerging downstream of photoelectric transduction. Causality is hierarchical: photons → photoelectric transduction → bioelectric fields → biochemistry → genetics This ordering reflects the necessity of temporal and energetic coherence before molecular signalling can be meaningfully interpreted. Biology is therefore not merely bioelectric, but photo-bioelectric, with light establishing phase, coherence, and permissible state transitions.

The Liver as a Central Photoelectric Organ

This hypothesis emerged from recognising an architectural asymmetry: the liver is the only primary human organ with complete regenerative capacity and the dominant site of fermentation and alcohol metabolism. More fundamentally, it possesses the densest photoelectric infrastructure in the body, high concentrations of heme proteins, melanin analogues, extensive mitochondrial mass, and strong UPEs, suggesting a unique role in maintaining coherence under photonic and metabolic stress. Rather than viewing fermentation as a pathological detour, this framework treats it as a Shadow state, a stress-buffering, redox-preserving fallback when photonic or respiratory coherence is threatened."Image
3. Dr. Rob continues....

"Cancer as Photo-Bioelectric Coordination Failure

Three Questions Every Cell Once Asked:

In a healthy organism, cells continuously receive answers to three implicit questions:

When should this happen?
(answered by photonic timing via the hypothalamus)

Should this happen?
(answered by hepatic buffering and redox decision-making)
Can this happen safely?
(answered by continuous charge flow and regenerative capacity)
When cells can no longer answer these three fundamental organism-level questions, they default to autonomous survival programs."

How? @MitoPsychoBio is currently trying to sell the centralized paradigm idea that mitochondria are just a energy powerhouses. He is right, but for the wrong reasons. He stays in biochemistry because it is all he understands. The answer is in physics of light.

Mitochondria make light in the form of UPEs.

To understand the connection between electromagnetism and the weak nuclear force, it helps to think of them as two different "dialects" of the same original language. While they look and act differently today, they were once a single, unified
electroweak force.

1. The Core Connection: A Shared Origin

Physicists discovered that if you look at the universe at extremely high temperatures, like those just after the Big Bang, electromagnetism and the weak force merge into one. In this high-energy state:
They become identical Messengers: All the particles that carry these forces (the photon for electromagnetism and the W and Z bosons for the weak force) were originally massless and indistinguishable from one another.

The Big Split: As the universe cooled and temperature pressure and energy changed, it underwent a process called spontaneous symmetry breaking. This is similar to water freezing into ice: the "fluid" symmetry of the water is lost as it locks into a specific crystal structure.

2. Why They Seem Different Now
The reason we experience them as separate forces today is due to the Higgs Field, which acts like a "thick syrup" pervading the universe.

The Weak Force (Heavy): The W and Z bosons interact strongly with the Higgs field, which gives them a massive "weight." Because they are so heavy, they can only travel tiny distances (less than the width of an atom), making the weak force extremely short-ranged in Nature.

Electromagnetism (UPE Light): The photon does not interact with the Higgs field at all. It remains massless and can travel across the entire universe at the speed of light, which is why we can see stars billions of light-years away.

3. A Simple Analogy
Imagine a heated magnet:
At high heat: The magnet loses its north-south orientation. All directions look the same; it has perfect rotational symmetry. This is the unified electroweak state.
As it cools: The magnet suddenly "chooses" a direction and develops a north and south pole. The original symmetry is broken, and two distinct "sides" (forces) emerge.

What is UPEs major target in a cell? MELANIN. Melanin is a magnet because it has unpair electrons. Picard forgets the basics because of biochemical myopia.

Picard will soon learn when he learns some physics from his wife that mitochodnria acts as lenses in tissues with respect to light running optically around, in, and through them.

He will soon realize that my idea that mitochondria polarize internal UPEs to maintain "efficiency" suggests a highly specific optical environment (topology). His wife can tell him that the Nobel Prize for topology was given in 2016. Blue light from any man made source is polized circularly. Look it up. That is how they engineered it.

Why Picard needs to learn physics if he really wants to be a mitochondriac? The physics of polarization is linked to the weak force via Parity Violation. Because of this, exogenous CPL in the form of blue light should act as a "spoiler" if its handedness or energy levels conflict with the cell's internal chiral "tuning," potentially forcing the biological topology into a less efficient state through asymmetric photochemical induction.  

Picard does not seem to remember that CPL's are so specific they are now being used to evaluate the central retinal pathways and brain for misfolded proteins in human disease. Fact check me Savages.  

Right now centralized medicine seems to have no idea protein misfolding is caused by the diagnostic tools. CPL interacts so specifically with chiral biological structures, it is being used in 2026 as a non-invasive tool for detecting diseases like Alzheimer’s, which involve changes in the "handedness" of protein plaques. You should be aware of their myopia. I'm challenging Martin to challenge his own right now.

The tie to the evolution of melanin is not just elegant but pivotal in understanding the modern disease landscape, especially when one considers how scale enters the equation with respect to the electromagnetic force. My emphasis on how electromagnetism's effects amplify dramatically at nanoscale distances flips the script on "weak" external inputs like blue light: What seems subtle globally becomes a destructive force internally via amplified UPE cascades in tissues leading to photobio-electric scarring and dessertification. The mechanism of blue-light disruption is well documented (via chronodisruption, melanopsin dysregulation, and ROS amplification in studies from the 2010s–2020s), and in a 2026 context, emerging biophotonics data only strengthens my ideas. I'm doing playing small ball with the smooth brainers. Time to step on the gas.Image
Image
Image
Image
2. For the biochemistry food retards: Can you make melanin or dopamine if the parity violation in polarized life destroys your pool of L-tyrosine or L- phenylalanine due to polarized blue light exposure?

Look at the dam slide, top line below.

This perspective is a masterclass in decentralized thinking where the surface chemistry (eye/skin as photonic interfaces) trumps internal biochemistry because scale dictates electromagnetism's dominance.

UPEs aren't mitochondrial noise; they're nanoscale lasers signaling via polarization, with melanin/dopamine as the evolved decoder. Modern disruptions (blue/nnEMF) exploit this by amplifying weak inputs into destructive cascades, explaining disease epidemics as "optical mismatches" since GOE. GAME SET MATCH MY SAVAGES.Image
3. While the weak force provides a constant "hidden" bias, Circularly Polarized Light (CPL) acts as a powerful external "wand" that can either reinforce or override it. This is how man made light is engineered by DOD/DARPA design (MKULTRA)

Asymmetric Photochemistry: CPL from star-forming regions can selectively destroy one handedness of a molecule while leaving the other intact. This has been demonstrated in experiments with amino acids and extraterrestrial ice analogs.

Interaction with PVED: If CPL and the weak force's PVED bias point in the same "direction," they can work together to amplify homochirality much faster. If they oppose each other, the stronger environmental factor (often CPL in high-radiation space environments) determines the final topology.

Amplification Mechanisms: In 2026, researchers are studying how tiny initial biases (from either CPL or PVED) are magnified through "autocatalytic" networks, where a molecule acts as a template for more of itself, eventually leading to 100% of one handedness in living systems.

Picard love affair with Levin needs to END. Logic is defined by light in the system not bioelectricity.Image

Dr. Morse has zero clue what ultrasound does to water in a tendon over time. If he did he would not help you facilitate your future torn Achilles tendon. If you want prevention do not screen. Walk on a beach with your feet in the water every AM, begin using grounding shoes, and use the abscopal effect of sunlight on your skin to increse the piezo electric and flexoelectric strength of solar photons to strengthen your tendons and joints.

You do not have to come to El Salvador to see me. I offer you this Rx here on X for free. You can asked Adrian Peterson, Drew Brees, or Cam Akers. We use biophyscis and quantum biology to help our trainers and athletes.

In centrlaized medicine where ultrasound screenings are used this is what they do not tell you: Using conventional orthopedic management most of these injuries requiring 9–12 months on average. See Dan Marino. Achilles tendon ruptures are severe injuries in the NFL, with historical return-to-play (RTP) rates around 60–70% and typical timelines of about 11 months for those who do return.

The first person who used decentrlaized ideas was Jerry Rice for his ACL. See how that went. He came back in same season. See TO. Broke his leg in season and played in SB that same season.
See AP.
Tore his ACL and embraced the suck of decentralized ideas and ran for 2000 yds the next yr. See 2012 T Suggs. Tore his Achilles and came back in 6 months to play in the last SB the Ravens won with Harbaugh.

Tom Brady began to use naked sunbathing to fuel his play to 47 yrs old after a KC Safety took his ACL out. These are the things centralized medicine has made fun of at your expense. Aaron Rogers uses decentrlaized medicine to come back from his ACL and is playing tonight. The media and retards made fun of his use of cold and darkness with him walking the beach in malibu as he came back at over 40 yrs old. That was a very un- Marino think Aaron did a few years ago.

Do you want to be like everyone else and do ultrasounds on you achilles or do you want to put the extra in ordinary to do what the few in the NFL have? Embrace the suck of Nature to come back fast.Image

2. Let us ask the question Dr. Morse is too ignorant to raise, namely, what are the effects of using ultrasound on coherent domains in water? It is well established in the literature that for collagen to keep its piezo and flexoelectric abilities to performs it must be well hydrated by CCO from heme proteins. So what does screening ultrasound do to the collagen matrix in the Achilles based on what is known?Image
3. Ultrasound used in medical offices is considered by water researchers to be high intensity. Did you know this? I know the good doctor Morse doesn't because he has never read a water journal in physics in his life. If he had, he'd never have invited anyone to Miami to use a high intensity ultrasound machine to screen them. WHY?Image

2. George H.W. Bush ws remembered in history books written the CIA cabal as the president who oversaw the collapse of the Soviet Union. This is horse shit but he did have another major foreign policy achievement that is absent from the history books authored by the CIA.

He was THE KEY champion of free trade and a key architect of globalization and sustaining the Deep State. His legacy is now in danger and many of his family have serious criminal problems since Maduro is out of VZ were the secrets are.

Venezuela wasn’t our enemy and never has been. The cabal controlled CIA were the real enemy in Venezuela.

Free trade was a purposeful narrative controlled by the shadow government. It was a convincing strategy at the time, and it garnered support from many Americans who believed in a more “fair” trading system worldwide. Another bush Deep State Coup against America.

Bush signed NAFTA ONE month before leaving office, and he said it would become a “model” for future trade agreements.

What is was, was just another CIA template to steal taxpayer time and money.​ You bought the CIA psyops chief and all your followers should know you are a shitty diagnostician.Image
3. NAFTA was intended to lift old tariffs, duties and trade barriers, in order to increase trade.

What has DJT reinstalled in his first year in the second term before he went into VZ?

TARIFFS.

This is why the DEEP STATE hates DJT.

This signals to them that DJT the CIA is the enemy of the people of the USA.

Why did the shadow government based in intelligence, controlled by Bush, want to increase trade to Mexico and Canada?

Barriers are the key to H.W. BUSH and Jeb Bush plan.

Why did Bush family cartel members lift all those barriers?

They learned the game from Prescott Bush during the time he hid Nazi money in WW2.

Was it about tariffs, or was it about the free “flow” of goods? What was going to be allowed to “flow freely?”

These goods from NAFTA countries would be declared “National Goods” and be free from state or local government control.

Why is that process a big deal, chief?​

​CENTRALIZATION allowed CIA control of the flow of goods in VZ.

Why would limited government control over goods traded between Mexico, the U.S. and Canada be so important to the shadow government controlled by the CIA in VZ?

I’ll ask the question again.

Was NAFTA just about free trade or was it a precursor to setting up the largest drig operation and money laundering scheme on Earth for the CIA and Deep State?

Who were the leaders that signed the NAFTA trade deal?

The three leaders were George H.W. Bush, the Canadian Prime, Minister Brian Mulroney and Mexican President Carlos Salinas de Gortari.

Mexico was key in understanding the psy-ops design. You failed at this class.

It was all about allowing the free flow of drugs into the US from the Mexican Cartels to control Americans and dumb them down and steal their assets. That has been going on since George H Bush left office.
4. Who was Carlos Salinas de Gortari?
​He was Mexico’s 60th president and leader of the controlling political party in Mexico called the Institutional Revolutionary Party. (PRI)
He was a very powerful politician and became very popular with his economic reforms, including NAFTA.

What else did he do besides NAFTA?
​He privatized everything he could in Mexico. That facilitated centralized control by the few in his country. This is how we got the lattest robber barrons.

President Salinas oversaw the biggest privatization program in Mexico, and it was directly connected to NAFTA.
Privatization didn’t create competition at all. It just transferred ownership of the monopolies from the government into private hands.

The year before the NAFTA agreement, Mexico only had two billionaires. When Salinas left office, there was 28 billionaires. That was not just a coincidence it was designed by the CIA banking cartel on Wall Street. Those 28 billionaires became the new robber barons of globalization. Carlos Slim was one of these guys in telecom and Big Tech.

There is a Bitcoin link. Raúl Salinas de Gortari, Carlos's brother, loaned Ricardo Salinas Pilego 29 million to buy TV Azteca during his presidency, leading to later investigations and public scrutiny.

This is why I have always been leary of Salinas role in Bitcoin in Mexico.

Go and listen to his Bitcoin story he always talks about 1994. Know your enemies bro by knowing their history. .Image

The viral claim made by the guy in the video is of poor quality FYI. If you review the data that "January babies are smarter" appears to stem from recent social media posts and reels, often attributing it to increased maternal melatonin during darker winter months in the third trimester (typically October-December for a January birth), which allegedly boosts fetal brain myelination and white matter development for faster neural signaling and higher IQ.

However, this is not strongly supported by rigorous scientific evidence and studies on birth month and intelligence show mixed, small, or inconsistent effects, and melatonin’s role in fetal myelination, while plausible, lacks direct causal proof for superior outcomes in January specifically.
2. Sun exposure (red/NIR light) also boosts mitochondrial melatonin production, which doesn't always circulate but supports local cellular repair. This could counterbalance winter darkness if mothers get daytime light, per my emphasis on light cycles for health.Melatonin, produced in response to darkness, does influence fetal brain development, including myelination (insulation of neural fibers for faster signaling). Maternal melatonin crosses the placenta, helping regulate fetal circadian rhythms and neuroprotection.

Reviews in Human Reproduction Update (2014) and Frontiers in Endocrinology (2020) show melatonin rises in late pregnancy, peaking at night, and supports fetal brain maturation, antioxidant protection, and timing of birth. Winter darkness (longer nights) could amplify this, as noted in Children (2024) where seasonal effects increase melatonin synthesis.

Animal studies (e.g., in sheep) link higher maternal melatonin to better fetal myelination and white matter integrity. Human evidence is indirect: Preterm infants given melatonin show reduced brain injury risk (PMC7820522, 2021), and winter births correlate with slightly better sleep regulation in infants due to in-utero darkness cues.

However, no studies directly link third-trimester winter darkness to superior IQ or myelination in January babies. Brain development peaks in the last trimester, but total darkness exposure varies: For North America (shortest days November-February), March-April babies (conceived ~June-July, third trimester December-March) might actually get more cumulative darkness, as I've calculated, contradicting the viral claim.Image
3. One more key confounder here is that 95% of melatonin production in humans is mitochondrial not pineal. Image
