The primary cause of dis-ease - I say it’s the physiological model that needs updating.
We are not MACHINES working with gases of combustion (oxygen) and exhaust (carbon dioxide).
We are powered by hydration NOT oxygenation.
Hydration equals salt plus water.
All dis-ease begins with dehydration / dryness / oxidation.
I logically dismiss the gaseous exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in my article: We breathe air not oxygen.
Air is measured by its moisture or humidity.
Oxygen, a man-made product, is calibrated by its DRYNESS in parts per million of water contamination.
The lungs require air reaching the alveoli sacs to be at 100% humidity or dew point, that is water.
Can you spot the mis-match?
Oxygen is a man-made PRODUCT of air not a constituent of air. Oxygen is made by stripping air of moisture. Oxygen is converted to nitrogen with the addition of carbon particles. Nitrogen is non-combustible oxygen. Nitrogen is synthetic smoke. Smoke smothers a fire.
There is no oxygen or nitrogen or the other 1% of products in fresh air. Polluted air is cleansed with rain.
The test for air: it will not change a glowing splint.
The test for oxygen: it will relight a glowing splint.
The test for nitrogen: it will smother a glowing splint.
So what are the lungs doing with water drops at the alveoli sacs?
The lungs are rehydrating the passing red blood cells in the alveoli capillaries with salt water.
The respiratory mucosa provides both moisture and salt to the inhalation air. So it salt water that is absorbed by the RBCs. The lung lymph drains excess salt water at the alveoli, so we can spend time in steam rooms without injury.
The IV saline drip is also rehydrating red blood cells when they pass through the fluid.
The red light monitoring is checking hydration NOT oxygenation.
Dehydrated RBCs are dark and contracted.
Hydrated RBCs are light and full.
Oxygen is prescribed because it can kill. Oxygen’s toxicity is due to its power to dehydrate.
ROS reactive oxygen species is a label to describe damage from dehydration.
Why has chronic dis-ease increased dramatically over the 45 yrs?
Salt restriction directives that have poisoned our minds against salt.
Water follows salt into and out of the body. Any dryness or dehydration causes problems.
Low salt or hyponatremia or dehydration are the same condition.
Low salt means lowered blood volume. This lowers blood pressure. To compensate the heart rate increases.
This is such an insightful take on the problems of modern day medicine (and our approach to the world at large, really). I think of it as a problem between parts-form-a-whole (A+B) thinking and growth (a to A) thinking. The A+B approach means that we think we can isolate one part of a thing (such as the salicin example you give being made into acetylsalicylic acid), ditch the rest, and then add it to the body with no deleterious effects to the rest of the whole. As you point out, this can be disastrous to overall health. But this A+B approach is essentially how the entire Western world functions (I am currently studying the effects of it in our architecture). It's amazing how broad what you're talking about can be applied.
Love the analogy of the sword and its effects on the body. Very smart visual.
Definitely gave you a subscribe after coming across your ideas. Keep it up!
Amen. Our digestive system, including the gut bacteria, WANTS to work for its living. If we do all the work before the food hits the stomach, the system and the bacteria start making trouble, just as an unemployed city makes trouble. This principle was well understood 120 years ago. Dietician Ellen Richards wrote about 'sophisticated foods'.
Dana Ullman is a brilliant homeopath who has been helping people for over 40 years. I am sure you know that homeopathy was the first form of accepted medicine in America before the Flexner Report in 1910. A true tragedy for human health and healing. There are homeopathic remedies for absolutely everything. I was bitten by a snake a few years ago which caused horrible clotting and inflammation (a long story) I took Lechesis 200 C potency, which is snake venom. I take Arnica montana before and after any type of surgery--healing much quicker. For covid Cinchona, which is hydrochloroquine; coffea cruda for depression and insomnia. . . . Well, you can explore and download the repertory from the Ainsworth Homeopathic Remedy page https://www.ainsworths.com/remedy-store/ . . .so impressive! Like all of the excellent alternative therapies which can help or cure chronic health issues, homeopathy is at the top.
I have become a big advocate of ending my shower with a 3 minute cold water rinse after reading its many health benefits. Yes it’s uncomfortable especially at 1st but by the end you don’t realize the cold as much.
On a side note. There’s a lot of Dr’s now discussing what role parasites play in cancer and most recently MS. Dr. Lee Merrick, a spine surgeon discusses this on her website and why parasitic cleanses should be done. I haven’t been brave enough to do this yet. But hopefully you will do an article on this because I’d love your perspective. Thanks
Thanks, but as you know you need a Rx for that. Since then however I have used food grade DME and also wormwood. Again, there’s no studies however clearly spelling out how much or for how many days or how often to do it. I tolerated both completely fine though.
Unfortunately, yes it's true. Here's the source for both the Applebee's quote, and also the latest iteration I could find of the applicable FDA Regulations. Enjoy!
You’ve “refined” the problem pretty well...😊. Pretty simple too: If it was created by an unnatural process, it will ultimately harm you. I have been focusing on food additives for quite some time since I discovered they caused my Migraines. But your inclusion of drugs, technologies, social interactions, etc. is a terrific observation, and food for further thought. Thank you!
Homeopathy takes a huge variety of natural substances and refines them through a series of dilutions which increase their potency and their energy. I believe that it isn't for everyone, especially if you have a toxic diet, as you refer to. Once someone is on the path of maintaining their health, doesn't receive vaccines, exercises daily and has a positive mind, homeopathy is the most non-toxic subtle intervention available. I have been taking homeopathic remedies for all types of issues since 1983 and have never once had a bad reaction. One's immune intelligence is activated and if you use the most appropriate remedy for the symptoms healing is usually quick! You can find volumes of Materia Medicine. Here is one of the best:
Homeopathic solutions seem to be a paradox - they are both refined in that they represent entirely the energy and resonance of a substance, yet...are almost entirely absent of the substance itself.
I once read an article in a journal that discussed a bee’s feeding behavior as being relative to homeopathy. (2013?). The author related that there had been a surge of credible recent research in homeopathy in about 2001, but it had died out.
I've been saying for a while that most chronic disease is caused by our foods and chemical exposures (including pharmaceutical drugs). I hadn't thought about the mental and social aspects before, but I think you've made a valid point: anything unnaturally refined or processed causes chronic disease in the body because it must use an unnatural process to deal with it.
I'm a bit confused by this...if oxygen is dehydrating then why is HBOT so beneficial....also would a mix of gasses be better than 100% oxygen...
There are of course other variables like the pressure difference.

Increased heart rate indicates dehydration/low blood volume/low blood pressure.
Increasing heart rate increases heart stress.
Do you see how salt demonisation is a dis-ease increasing strategy NOT a health strategy.
Find any part of the body that does NOT suffer if deprived of adequate fluid?
Hydration is a continuous problem our physiology solves. Get salty!

Interesting model.
Will have to brush up on it.

Thank you Ren.
Funny you mention it, my wife is also exploring similar problems in architecture.
Oh wow — does she have a Substack? I’d love to see her take on the problem
She just started one. https://hstudio.substack.com/
I'm sure she'd love to engage with you on the topic.
I just subscribed :)
Muy de acuerdo, el refinamiento en los productos que consumismos resulta siempre tóxico.

Exactly. And that allows it to work above the confusion of the body, addressing the source of all healing. The best way to understand how homeopathy works, is to try a remedy on yourself. The "experience" for each person depends on how receptive and open they are to a holistic healing. I suggest subscribing to Dana Ullman's substack page https://danaullman.substack.com/p/disinformation-on-homeopathy-two?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=517471&post_id=123169941&isFreemail=true&utm_medium=email.

An easy “parasitic cleanse ” consists of simply taking ivermectin; a natural anti-parasitic compound derived from fungi!
Thanks, but as you know you need a Rx for that. Since then however I have used food grade DME and also wormwood. Again, there’s no studies however clearly spelling out how much or for how many days or how often to do it. I tolerated both completely fine though.
No, you don’t! Go to Ivermectin.com

Here's some refinement for you, from Applebee's Menu Ingredients:
"Q: For some menu items containing soybean oil, why is soy not marked as an allergen?
The FDA exempts highly refined soybean oil from being labeled as an allergen."
Wait...is this true?!
Do you have a source for this?
Buffalo Wild Wings nutrition document says the same thing.

Food for thought…no pun intended???
Of course…😁
Much appreciated.
I couldn't have the time to think about these things without the support of my readers.
Thank you.
I love your angle with this. Interesting synthesis or... refined... point of view ;)
I enjoyed this and think you are onto something - another, related, concept people have come up with is "hypernovelty" https://garysharpe.substack.com/p/book-review-a-hunter-gatherers-guide
Daniel Schmachtenberger refers to them as "hypernormal" stimuli

It's the memory power/magic of water! You mentioned Gerald Pollack and his research before. Mind blowing stuff.
I agree wholeheartedly!

Hi remnant i would like to suggest for healthy living ideas so that we can work towards minimising risks for chronic diseases.
By all means, suggest away.
