Dr. Jack Kruse: "Any type of non-native EMF, whether it's blue light or 1G through 5G, raises glucose metabolism or a pathway in your body called the AMPK pathway. That has an effect on your immune system. What is the effect?
"There's two branches of the immune system, the innate and the adaptive system. And it turns out the innate system actually blocks the COVID-19 from getting through the ACE2 receptor into your cell. That's the reason why vitamin D is so protective, because it raises innate immunity. But here's the part of the story that very few talk about.
"Did you know that sunlight is an immunosuppressant for the adaptive system? Let me say that again, because most people think the sun always powers up the immune system. It turns out adaptive, that's the T-cells, that's the NK cells, it's an immunosuppressant for that. Why is that important? Everybody listening to this podcast has heard that people die from this disease from cytotoxic storms. Guess what controls that? T cells, NK cells. So they're allowed to run free. Why? Because the off switch is not in their body.
"And that's the same kind of situation that's going on now in New York and in UK with kids getting Kawasaki's disease, which is related to the C19. Why? Their cytotoxic adaptive systems are not operating properly, because they've not been programmed.
"This is a story that to me gets to the crux of the issue. People realize that sun can actually be both positive and negative to the immune system at the same time. The problem is if you don't know how it works, on the surface this sounds crazy. […]
"If you have an autoimmune condition, you have the same problem that people with C19 has. Why? You have poor innate immunity, and you have a hyperactive adaptive immunity. That's actually how you get autoimmune disease. That's the reason why the classic autoimmune disease that we always talk about is MS. What do we know about MS, Sherrill? That the closer you get to the equator the incidence of MS goes almost down to zero. This is the reason why it happens. You need to become a quantum biologist. You need to understand really how the sun works with your cells.
"I'm not gonna tell you this science is easy. But if you listen to this podcast in the last hour, have I given you some simple analogies about casinos and orange trees to understand really what's going on? Have I told you simply wearing a mask reduces oxygen tension and that's what drives NAD+ lower? I've already given you the hardcore answers that are published in the literature. Problem is when you start learning a lot of this little stuff you go, 'I want to learn more.' Well that's when you become a part of my tribe, because that's what I teach. I teach you all the details. I teach you really how nature is designed to work with ourselves. that's my modus operandi, that's my goal. That's the reason I became a surgeon. As I said before, the Latin derivation of surgeon is to teach. Hopefully some of you who've listened to this podcast from the beginning to the end have seen maybe there's some wisdom in some of the chaos that I brought in this podcast."

"If you happen to be a young mother that's got a couple of kids whose pediatrician is putting kids on melatonin because they can't sleep, you need to eliminate that. Because when you take exogenous melatonin you're making the system worse for your kid. You need to realize that the iPad, the TV, your digital babysitter, is actually ruining your kid's ability to make and utilize melatonin. So I need you to eliminate that kind of stuff."

Sherrill Sellman, ND: "Why don't we go through a basic list of strategies or behaviors that you believe are going to allow us to optimize our dopamine levels, to be able to optimize our circadian rhythms, to reconnect us again. What are the steps that you have been recommending, that you have found, you offer to your community, the steps, the strategies, the behaviors that are most critical for us to regain that harmony again with ourselves and with nature."
Dr. Jack Kruse: "I think the first thing you have to do is you have to become a little bit facile with the science of mitochondria. And when I say that, you need, first order of business, find out what your mitochondrial haplotype is. […] We have different mitochondria that have innovated all over the world. The people who live in Africa, where most humans come from, the East African Rift, there's three mitochondrial haplotypes L0, L1, L2. Those are people that tend to have what we call tightly-coupled mitochondria. That means they don't make a lot of free heat in their body.
"As people's skin got lighter, like me, my clade comes from the 59th latitude in Ireland, we lost our melanin. I have still some left from freckles that are all over me. We lost our melanin, and we went up higher latitude, and we got a different type of mitochondrial haplotype. Those are H and K. Those are mostly Northern European people. Those type of haplotypes allow you to uncouple and make free heat from the cold environment so that you could live there.
"It turns out many people can still use sunlight and cold to improve their mitochondrial biology, but some people can't. There's carburetors that are on your haplotype.
"So the first order of business you can use Ancestry or 23andme. Just find out what your haplotype is. They usually will also give you a SNP (single-nucleotide polymorphism) or SAP (single amino-acid polymorphism). Those are the carburators that tell you how efficient the engine is.
"What you want to know from this data is, am I driven more by the sun, or am I driven by cold, or am I fortunate (like I am), that I can use both. Then you come up with a plan to make decisions on how are you gonna live.
"Like I told you before, I think the single most important thing is, no matter where you are, is seeing the sunrise. I'd say probably the second most important thing is if. . ."
Dr. Jack Kruse with Sherrill Sellman, ND @ 22:12–24:57 https://youtu.be/Wp7Dm2NJgmg?t=1332
Dr. Jack Kruse: "Melatonin controls all your mitochondrial biology. Most people think that melatonin is the hormone of darkness. They're shocked to find out that when you actually look at the atomic structure of melatonin, it's made out of aromatic amino acids. And those aromatic amino acids, the number-one one is tryptophan. It turns out that it only gets activated or programmed in sunlight. And guess when that light is the most important for melatonin?
"Right now. Right now. We're talking early in the morning. Part of the reason I told you, Sherrill, that we need to talk now is because the morning time is actually when I want to be outside all the time. From the time the sun rose today, until right about now, I've been out here, waiting to talk to you about this.
"And the crazy part of melatonin that people don't realize, because it has this benzene ring, six carbon ring that holds those electrons get excited by light via the photoelectric effect. This is the most amazing part of the neurohormone melatonin that I think people need to understand. […] Melatonin holds on to its light until nighttime when it releases it. […] That's when it acts. But guess what?
"When you build it actually begins when the sun's out. So if your skin and your eyes are not in the game of nature, you're never gonna get an optimized melatonin cortisol cycle. That's where it begins. […]
"That's the single most important thing that you need to get right in your life. So everybody who's listening to this hopefully they sit back in their chair and go, 'OK, I'm 60 years old. How many sunrises have I really seen in my life?'
"Then you'll start to begin to understand why you have the conditions of existence that you do in your life right now. And if you think that taking supplements, or eating an optimized diet, or doing exercise in a blue-lit gym are gonna bring you to the promised land, you definitely need to improve your ability to think. Because that's not gonna do it."

Dr. Jack Kruse: "UV light controls apoptosis and infrared A light covers autophagy. You need both of these in order to go between wakefulness and sleep. And the change program, the biochemical change program that optimizes that is melatonin levels that are created, as you know Ted, in the mitochondria. The amount of melatonin created in the mitochondria is very similar to the story of DMT in the pineal gland. It's also quantized.
"It turns out that when this system is awry, when you don't have as much quantum coherence at sleep, the system becomes screwed. How do we see that? If we had an electrode that we could put in someone's mitochondria […], the differential between cytochrome one and oxygen, health is maintained between -400 mV to -200. When you fall below -200 mV it's impossible to be quantum coherent. OK? So that's also when diseases begin to show up. […]
"The neurologic system is partially quantum coherent while we're functioning. That is the reason why it's surrounded by water. […] The brain is the most amazing thing out there. It's so different than any other organ. The basic questions that people need to ask: Why is CSF surrounding the brain? Why is CSF made inside the brain? Why did the blood vessels not come in like a kidney, they come in from the outside in through the subarachnoid space?
"The reason why is this is how quantum coherence is built in that organism _while_ it's awake. It's an organ that's built to be partially quantum coherent. It's utilizing the electron state of water with light through the eyes and the skin through the nonvisual photoreceptive system. This is all the magics that are involved in that neuroectoderm layer that you talked about. But guess what? It doesn't work well if the mitochondria doesn't make water, and it certainly doesn't work well when you're not making enough melanin to absorb enough of the light from the environment to help you.
"In other words, you lose your quantum coherent ability. What do functional medicine, even mitochondriac medicine, and centralized medicine stumble on? They don't realize that that keeps you outside the range of the DC electric current. In other words, the paradigm of say, Nick Lane, where he did a great job in his books and talks about that 30 million volt charge. Well if you don't have these processes all yoked together, your inner mitochondrial membrane may only give you 15 million charge. And when you have a 15 million charge, if you ask any physicist, if you drop the charge by half, that's also a quantized number, a quantized effect. That means that your ability to quantum tunnel with protons, electrons, or quantum entangle, also drops. Why? Because of Einstein's equation, E=mc².
"Entanglement and quantum mechanics is much easier when energy isn't constrained by mass. That's really what the story is inside of most cells."

Alexis Cowan: "You've seen the rollout of cell phones and cell towers, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 5G towers. Everything is getting even more high powered. What has that experience been like? Is it frustrating or are you hopeful?"
Andrew Marino: "Oh, I'm not hopeful until the science that Philip Handler left just goes away. That didn't happen in the 20th century and it shows no signs of happening in the 21st century. I'm writing my book [Philip Handler: Toxic Pope of Science, estimated release of late 2025] for the 22nd century so people can understand how science got into the bloody mess it's in now. Bloody mess. I'm not hopeful at all. [...]
"All I do is practice the advice that I preach: I just minimize the stressors. It's not a specific cause of disease like infectious disease, it's a stressor. It taxes the pituitary-adrenal axis, which taxes the body's immune system, which makes it less effective. Things that the body would ordinarily prevent you from developing a disease don't work. The disease comes, so you get cancer or you get any one of myriad chronic diseases.
"You can't turn back the clock and I certainly don't want to. I just minimize stuff. [...]"
Alexis Cowan: "That makes sense. I mean there's a lot of perks to using the technology for sure."
Andrew Marino: "[Laughs] Like, would you want to do without electricity? [...]
"I don't want anybody making decisions for me, and I don't want to have to make decisions for anybody else."
Dr. Alexis Cowan: "[...] I guess my biggest point of frustration is that I feel like I truly believe in the ingenuity and creativity of humans. If we were to just acknowledge the issues at hand, I feel like we could use our creativity to find ways to use technology that's safer. But when we're in the midst of denying that it's a problem to begin with, I feel like that's the biggest issue."
Andrew Marino: "You're right! That's exactly what I tried to say, but maybe not as eloquently and as concisely as you did. That's exactly right. That's what I meant when I said I don't want to be making decisions for anybody else, unless it's so acute and it's so far from something you know about. [...] At a minimum, Uncle Sam should ensure that the information is available. And Uncle Sam should not become part of the problem.
"When the FDA says that there's no evidence that cell phones cause brain cancer, that's just simply not true. The FDA is, in many cases, part of the problem and becoming increasingly more part of the problem [...]"

Ben Greenfield: "The interesting thing about the exposomics though, is that that ties back into the epigenetics. If you look at tobacco smoke, for example. You smoke, you change your methylation of a few different genes, and that actually can permanently affect genetic expression in your offspring and affect their methylation capabilities. That's some pretty important stuff to actually be looking at."
Dr. Ted Achacoso: "Yeah, in fact there's a wonderful slide, the image is out there in the internet, where there's a mother who's smoking, and then she's passing on her genes and her epigenetics to her daughter, and her daughter's daughter, because their reproductive cells of the daughter's daughter will have it. So you're affecting three generations: there's a grandmother, the mother and the grandchild will, from the smoking grandmother, actually shows the effect of epigenetics. It's actually pretty cool."

Dr. Jack Kruse: "Everything. […] That city is loaded with 5G. It's everywhere, all around. Doesn't matter where you go. When it's population dense, remember it's called the inverse square law. You've got all these people from New York moving down. You got people from Cuba moving up. They all live in a very small area. You know when you fly back into Miami you look at it, everybody's in one spot. Dude, it's one of the worst places for you to live. It used to be okay, because the sun would offset it. but it's not. And when you have. . ."

Dr. Ted Achacoso: "Then we have the microbiota or what I call the gut immune system. The biggest change from my time in medical school to now, Ben, is we were taught before it's the bone marrow. Now we know it's the gut that's the largest immune system in the body, and it's the microbiota. 78% of your bacteria are actually in your gut, and they teach your immune system what's foreign, not foreign, and so on. That's why you see in patients who are born by cesarean section, because they didn't have the proper inoculation with the vaginal organisms by spontaneous vaginal delivery, they are prone more to allergies and other immune diseases, because of this improper activation of the immune system. Now this information was not available to us before. It's only available to us now.
"What the more enlightened OB-GYNs are doing now is that if they're doing a cesarean section, they put in a gauze in the vagina, and then they deliver the baby by cesarean. Then as the head is coming out they rub the gauze in the face, hopefully to do the proper inoculation."

Dr. Ted Achacoso: "Epigenetics is a really wonderful and interesting science that has come to encouraging clinical practice. It's simply defined as genes are not your destiny. You're able to change genetic expression without changing the gene sequence themselves. In other words, you can change the way by which your genes are getting read.
"And how do you do this? There is an epigenome, meaning your DNA is actually wrapped around proteins called histones. Depending on particular substances, like for example chelators, they can actually turn on and off certain genes for you, without actually affecting the gene sequence itself.
"For example, the famous case is Angelina Jolie. She found out that she had a breast cancer gene, and she had her breasts lopped off. Actually that can be resolved with epigenetics can shut off certain cancer genes, etc.
"And what's interesting, Ben, is that it is heritable. You can inherit this. If you live a healthy lifestyle before you even get pregnant, all of those cancer genes that you shut off, your child will actually inherit them. So it's a different mechanism of inheritance altogether. So that's epigenetics.
"Many of the foods that we eat are actually epigenetical influencer. Resveratrol for example, or garlic, or even sulforaphane from broccoli. These are called histone acetylators. They shut off certain cancer genes and they turn on certain protective genes.
"Whereas turmeric and so on, these are methylators. So we can influence the genes and their expression, not by a CRISPR technology or anything like that, through. . ."

Max Gulhane, MD: "A couple of points about potentially using cold as treatment in something like prostate cancer. I see patients, and the patients are coming in and some of them are on androgen deprivation therapy. (For the listeners, it's an adjunctive method of treating prostate cancer that involves essentially turning off the male hormonal axis in an effort to prevent growth of testosterone-sensitive, potentially malignant prostate cells.) The issue here is that this essentially induces menopause-like symptoms in men, with the hot flashes and all this kind of thing. That's instructive for a number of reasons.
"One, it's potentially suggesting that menopause in women is a testosterone deficiency process. Two, I think it's like bludgeoning it with a hammer. If we could have a way more careful and physiological process that could potentially reduce the PSA, reduce the proliferation of malignant cells and keep the testosterone high, then that would be amazing."
Thomas Seager, PhD: "[…] The hypothesis is that because testosterone is anabolic, that it might promote the growth of these malignant cancer cells, because it promotes growth generally. So some physician has it in his head that we need to suppress testosterone, and that will somehow slow down the growth of prostate cancer tumor. This is dead wrong.
"It's Abraham Morgentaler, who is a physician and researcher in the United States, and he examined the data. These are large epidemiological and clinical studies. He says high testosterone is not associated with increased risk of prostate [cancer]. High testosterone protects against prostate cancer. It is exactly the opposite.
"One of the friends that I talked to when I had my high PSA, 'cause I called a bunch of guys. It wasn't easy. I'm like, 'You know, I just got these labs back. Scott, have you ever had your PSA checked?'
"Everybody had their PSA checked and everybody told me a different story. One of them was, he had a prostatectomy. He will suffer erectile dysfunction the rest of his life. He's resigned to this. He had a super-sensitive scan that showed cell that might be, maybe, cancerous, that maybe didn't get removed. And as a precautionary measure, his high-tech physician put him on testosterone blockers. He felt terrible. He gained weight. Of course his metabolism was wrecked, his muscle tone was wrecked.
"But in his mind, just like I was when I got my elevated PSA, he was scared. He said, 'I got to do this for my family. I got to do everything I can do to try and stay alive.' But his physician was harming him because the guy didn't know. The physician hasn't read the research. He's doing whatever they taught him in medical school without updating that based upon the real data.
"You can download Abraham Morgentaler papers on this. I've cited them. I put it up on our website. I've cited them in my book. You can listen to Brigham Buhler on this, he was really good at explaining the research. Morgentaler himself I think is on Instagram and trying to get the word out that testosterone suppression is hurting men's prostate health rather than helping it."

Eckhart Tolle: "The beginning of an awakening for people out of their suffering is the realization that most of the psychological suffering, because this is what we're talking about, we're not talking about toothache or anything like that. We're talking about psychological suffering. The psychological suffering arises from stories that you tell yourself in your mind about situations, about your life or your life situation.
"As a practical exercise to introduce this teaching to people, I sometimes recommend this. Next time you find yourself in a situation in which suffering arises, and suffering of course is a generic term. It can come in many forms.
"On one end of the spectrum, suffering is just feeling irritated or upset about something. It might be a minor thing but you're irritated. The other end of the spectrum there's deep despair, deep depression and sadness, or extreme thoughts of anxiety, panic and all that. So we have the two, and in between there's a wide range of different forms of suffering that derives. Very often they are not recognized as suffering by people. If you're not conscious how your mind operates, you don't even know that you're suffering. You don't even know that there is another way, that there would be another way in which you could experience this particular situation.
"So I recommend next time you find you become upset about something, or irritated, which is minor form of suffering, experiment I say. Let's imagine a situation that these things happen quite often to people. You're in the lineup, let's say it's at the airport. Airport is a source where often people experience psychological suffering because things don't go the way they expect them to go, especially these days. So you're in a lineup. It's not moving. You're getting more and more irritated and upset. […] I recommend the following practice, because you're standing there or waiting there, you might as well practice.
"Ask yourself, 'How would I experience this situation if I did not add any interpretation or any thought to it? How would I experience this moment if I didn't add any thought to it, if I did not interpret it in any way, if I just allowed this to be as it is, without burdening it with this baggage of thought.' It's okay. Let's say you're standing in this lineup, and it's you're very irritated.
"How would I experience this if I did not, in other words, if I did not in my mind say, 'This is bad,' and all the other thoughts that come after that? Because when you say, 'This is bad,' then the next thought comes in, 'My life is bad,' and you get a whole string of associated thoughts that are negative. 'How would I experience this moment without adding any thought to it?' Okay. So there you stand, and this would bring your attention into the present moment. And so your attention moves into the present moment, and in this present moment you're standing there, you're breathing, you're looking around, people moving. Whatever the room is you find yourself in, you're breathing, you're perceiving things, people. Suddenly you may find that this moment is actually free of suffering.
"The suffering did not arise, was not caused by the external circumstance. It was caused by the narrative in your mind about this circumstance. That's a huge distinction, and this is begin to live consciously when you realize this. Until you realize that you live unconsciously, which means, in spiritual terms, to live unconsciously is to be totally identified with whatever your mind is saying.
"I call it the voice in the head, the narrative in your mind, that tells you about how good, how bad things are, or how they should be, they are but they shouldn't be, they should be different. But they are as they are, always in this moment. You can't change this moment.
"So you become aware. That was discovered, by the way, 2,000 years ago by the not-very-well-known ancient Greek philosopher Epictetus. He said that, 'Most of your suffering is derived from what your mind is telling you about the situation, but not from the situation itself.' That's an enormous realization. That can be the beginning of an awakening, to see that the narrative in your mind is mostly what called this the suffering.
"But it is possible of course, that an external situation may cause physical discomfort. Obviously that's possible. Your legs are hurting, your back is hurting, or it's too cold or too hot, physical discomfort, of course that's possible. But that is not suffering in sense in which we use this term right here right now.
"The psychological suffering, unhappiness is another word you could use. It's a generic term for any form of negativity inside yourself. Unhappiness, suffering. So you begin to realize that most of that arises from a mental narrative about a situation, or about your circumstances, but not from the circumstances themselves."

Aaron Siri: "What's informed consent? You get informed, then you decide whether to consent. At the end of the day, the state should not compel above that. […]
"Mandates are the tool of bullies, criminals and dictators. If a patient refuses a medical product after being conveyed its benefits and risks, then that is called informed consent. They were informed and did not consent. Mandating over this objection is immoral and illiberal.
"[…] when we look at what has caused the most harm in humanity, in my opinion, the greatest harm to humanity has always been governments that believe that they know better than you how to live your life. […]

Aaron Siri: "You might say, well, the MMR has been carefully reviewed and studied. Has it? Really? […] We'll just take a super-quick peek. Here's the clinical trial relied upon to license the MMR vaccine. 834 children (not properly powered), no control, 42 days of safety review. And by the way, a third had gastrointestinal issues and a third had respiratory issues in the trial. […]
"Here's the vaccine information sheet for measles, mumps and rubella. It includes disclosures such as seizures, deafness, long-term seizures, coma, lowered consciousness and brain damage. But they got rid of that now, because you know, uh, heh, so anyway. . . […] These are all of the conditions that are disclosed that the manufacturers say can be caused very serious conditions, separate from the cancer stuff, separate from the heart disease stuff. These are the ones they have a causal basis to include. […]
"There was only one MMR vaccine for forever by Merck, with that clinical trial I just showed you, which was underpowered, no control and not enough safety review.
"Well, GlaxoSmithKline finally, they went and they licensed an MMR vaccine. What did they use as a control in the study? They used the Merck vaccine! So we finally could see what is the Adverse Event Rate amongst the healthy childhood population of getting these products!
"Buried in a supplemental table, not in the primary study, it's right here. So you could see that Serious Adverse Events amongst those getting MMR-RIT and MMR-II (so MMR-RIT is the GSK version, MMR II is the Merck version). Around 2% had a Serious Adverse Event.
"But here's an interesting thing. By the way I've never seen this before. They took [added two categories], 'Adverse Events prompting an ER visit' and 'NOCDs.' This is a new thing [category], 'New Onset Chronic Disease.' They removed those from Serious Adverse Events. I don't know why [chuckles].
"So you got to look at all three of them and add them up, cumulatively. Okay? So you've got 2% with the Serious Adverse Event. We looked at what those are earlier. Those are serious. You have another 10% that needed an ER visit prompted from the vaccine. And you had another about 3.4% that had a New Onset Chronic Disease during the review period for the vaccine, which was unsolicited, 42 days, and then AEs were done for 180 days.
"To me, that should be really concerning. If every few months, every child, 3.4% of children in America had a chronic disease that arose, every person in America would have a chronic disease, over a long enough period of time.
"Anyways, I'm not looking to cast aspersions on the MMR vaccine. I'm really just pointing out that in the same way that the federal health authorities do not have any issue, in my opinion, giving an impression of what these products can do, how harmful they were before there was a vaccine, and misleading the public with regards to MMR vaccine, I don't think they have an issue misleading the public regarding the COVID-19 vaccine. I think it's kind of the same type of approach.
"I should say, for what it's worth, I think most public health authorities and medical professionals are well meaning. I think that they really, they believe that they are, um, you know, they don't know. They just they have assumptions about these products. They're well-meaning. They think that they are. . . they really need to, no matter what, get you to take it, because that's going to save everybody.
"But when you step back and you're not emotional or religious about these products and you just look at the data, they paint a very different picture. And it's unfortunate that we can't have those kind of objective discussions."

Abel James: "What exactly is blue light doing when you're looking at it? Because I think a lot of people can relate to the feeling of scrolling mindlessly […] I'm guilty of this as well […] you're in a state that is absolutely suboptimal, but you can't get away from it. What exactly is going on […]
Dr. Jack Kruse: "All right, I'm going to give it to you very, very fast and I'm not going to get into the details. The process that causes this is called ferroptosis, probably something you've never heard about before. It's behind most of the microvascular changes that happen. It's a quantum-level effect through an iron atom with the interaction with blue light. […]
"But what effectively happens? Blue light has a non-visual photoreceptor called melanopsin. Melanopsin we found in the early 2000s. Then in the 2000s, we found out not only is in our subQ fat, it's in our arteries, it's in our brain. In fact, it's the number one dominant chromophore in the body. It reacts to the blue light spectrum, specifically between 435 and 470. And what happens?
"Every opsin, anytime you hear the word opsin, whether it's rhodopsin, melanopsin, neuropsin, encephalopsin, they're always bound to vitamin A called retinol. When light hits that protein retinol gets freed. Freed retinol has to be resorbed and recycled immediately. Why? Because it's toxic.
"So what does the vitamin A do? It destroys the photoreceptors. Hard stop. Now you have the mechanism.
"How does nature offset this? Because you're like, 'Jack, there's blue light in the sun, so there's got to be a program.' There is. The program in the eye is called Bazan's loop, short and long loop. What effectively happens, we recycle the vitamin A very, very quickly so it doesn't hurt us.
"What's the two chemicals that regenerate all the non-visual photoreceptors? Dopamine and melatonin. Ho! There you go!
"So melatonin, everybody […] would tell you, 'Oh, it's in your pineal gland.' No, it's actually made in your mitochondria. It turns out the mitochondria in that leptin-melanocortin pathway, […] that's the pathway that gets destroyed.
"And what happens is the problem starts first in the retina, gets generalized through the rest of the brain. Wherever the brain gets damaged that's the disease that you get. That's effectively how it happens.
"So it's a problem of vitamin A. […] (Chris MasterJohn, when he used to work for the Weston A Price foundation, he did a really nice paper a long time ago about the effects of vitamin A, that when vitamin A goes awry it ruins your sleep.) […]
"Vitamin A is a real problem when it comes to blue light. It destroys your ability to regenerate your photoreceptors. So when you regenerate the photoreceptor you can't, you need to chronically have this blue light hit for the dopamine problem. Guess where it goes?
"The leptin-melanocortin pathway has two major places that it goes with no synapses. The first one I think you know: SCN, that's the suprachiasmatic nucleus. That's what I tried to bring to the world 20 years ago when you first met me.
"Where's the other place it goes? The habenular nucleus in the hypothalamus and the thalamus. That's the relay center for the frontal lobes. Those are the two lobes that we got that our cousins don't have. This is the reason why mental illness, depression, you know addictive behaviors, obesity, that's where it's all coming from. That's where the reward tracts are. […]
"And when this disruption happens, you constantly need more and more and more. It's what you just said to your audience. That when you sit in front of blue light all day, or you're playing your music in front of blue light, you get depressed. […]
"And it turns out all the non-visual photoreceptors that get destroyed like this tend to be heme based. let me say that again. Heme based, like hemoglobin. Why?
"Because it turns out there's a very specific action spectra, 250 to 600 nm light, that's red light. Red light is the antidote to blue.
"So guess what? In the sun that's behind me, you never get blue by itself. You always get the antidote with it. That's the reason why blue light from the sun is not like blue light from your device. Guess what?
"That's the information the CIA, the FBI, and MKUltra taught the government. That's the reason why they've subtracted out the red and the UV. Because guess what? That will help save you. Got it?"

Dr. Jack Kruse: "The problem is [doctors] have to be judged by people who understand what's going on. That's the reason why politicians and healthcare administrators need to be removed from the system. Doctors have to judge other doctors. And if the health outcomes aren't there, guess what? We are going to create better doctors post-residency than we did pre-residency.
"It doesn't mean that we're going to completely throw all of our colleagues away who've been centralized through medical school or through naturopathic school or chiropractic school. We're going to judge them on their outcomes going forward.
"And then after a period of two, three, four decades, we will know definitively whose ideas are truly best that raise the public health.
"[…] This idea is not Jack's idea; Jack stole this idea from evolution. It's survival of the fittest, because the doctors who participate will have to be survival of the wisest.
"Some of the things that they do in writing say, statin prescriptions, or fluoro radiating someone for minimally-invasive spine disease, or putting an artificial disc in someone. It may turn out that when your metrics are compared against somebody say, who uses the photoelectric effect to improve the central retinal pathway and improve the leptin-melanocortin pathway, is better. Then guess what? That's how we take out bad ideas from medicine, and we do it without the influence of the people making the devices, making the drugs, or paying for the service. That's the big issue.
"And the problem is remember those stakeholders, they have for 50 to 70 years in centralized systems, have usurped the doctor's control. That has been the single biggest problem. If you look at healthcare expenditures, at least in Western medicine, what has grown faster than doctor salaries? Administrator salaries. Why why do we need that? We don't. Because it certainly hasn't improved the public health."

The Leptin Prescription
Dr. Jack Kruse: "The key is, you have to see the light in the morning. Because what does the light do? It turns on the timing mechanism in your eye. […] The better your clock works in your body, the more you lose weight. Okay?
"It turns out the molecular clock, where is it in humans? Suprachiasmatic nucleus in your eye. Okay? And that eye hooks your retina to your hypothalamus. Guess where that is? Leptin! So what's that pathway? It's called the leptin-melanocortin pathway of the central retinal pathways.
"It means light through your eye every morning is more important than the food you eat! Why? Because that is the key to the periodicity of the clock timing mechanism. In other words, when you break your fast, light is always recalibrating the clock in your body. What does the clock in your eye control? It controls leptin and controls melatonin.
"What is melatonin important for? Guess what controls autophagy and apoptosis? Melatonin biology. Why? Because it's tied to cortisol. Cortisol and melatonin are the hormonal axis that actually control this. But what controls both of them? Sunlight! We're back to photosynthesis again. […]
"So the leptin prescription tells you every morning, not behind a window, not behind any glass, no contacts on, no glasses, you go out and look in the direction of the sun.
"So what was the things I used to tell people on older podcasts? I want you to make like the Sphinx. Put your feet, your hands on the ground and look to the east every morning, just like the Sphinx, and within 30 minutes, then you can go eat your breakfast.
"And how you should eat the breakfast obviously is tied to the circadian biology of photosynthesis based where you live. So you in Colorado would be different than me because I'm at the 28th latitude. Now people who live in the zero latitude or inside the tropics, believe it or not, I'm okay with them eating some more carbohydrates than me or you.
"Why? Because it always grows there, it's not going to cause them a problem. But this assumes, a big assumption, is that they're going out and getting their skin and eyes in the game. Because if they don't, guess what? You ruin the clock mechanism. And that clock mechanism is the key to fixing your engines. Okay? That is the key."

Dr. Jack Kruse: "Deuterium affects the inner mitochondria and it turns the Krebs cycle, the TCA cycle that you learned about. […] This is a cycle that goes around, and basically it shows how carbon moves. But really what it's doing it's a cycle, and it's anabolic and catabolic. It can spin both ways.
"Turns out what happens with disease when you inject too much deuterium into the system and it breaks. Because this cycle happens inside the mitochondrial matrix. This is inside that membrane that you've been talking about, where the electron chain transport is. It breaks down. Then it becomes a linear system. In other words, you're going back to a time in evolution where the TCA cycle didn't work.
"Here's the very interesting thing about the TCA cycle that your boys in the carnivore world don't know about. If you eat carnivore, you eat nothing but fat and protein, if you don't see the sunrise, do you know that you can't use a TCA cycle? Did you know that?"
Robert Breedlove: "No."
Dr. Jack Kruse: "Shocking right? But guess what? Don't you think before anybody goes carnivore they should be told that by a fucking centralized doctor or a decentralized doctor?"

David Rasnick, PhD: "Side effect is a euphemism for undesired direct effects.
"The effects of the anti-HIV drugs are quite serious. In fact, if you look at the inserts that comes with these drugs, you'll see virtually all of them will have a black box warning label, which is the highest, the most severe warning that these drugs can have, and still be prescribable to human beings before they're taken off the market. They're lethal."
