- Top notch presenters.
This looks very good. Wish they could have called it something like the "Joy of Food" though as "the psychology of eating" just doesn't quite cut it for what (it seems) they are trying to convey.
sounds like an eating disorders workshop whereas, at least taking a short look at this, it's a much deeper dive into the world of flavor and nutrition while nurturing aspect of food is given credit. -

Keebler - I guess I was confused - the institute is about eating and some of the presentations are about eating, but the conference is on healing!
And it's fairly profound, with pearls of wisdom in every other line I hear!
It's interesting to listen to these folks - sometimes I feel like I'm hearing flirting around the edges of what we deal with, like one speaker said they had childhood arthritis - hmmm - and never quite mention what might be causing symptoms they fought to overcome -
one doctor finally did mention chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia and Lyme disease - thank you, doctor - I do think it's important to name the entities that people will need to know about in order to heal from what ails them -
But there's also a broad range of discussion about what is healing, and that's interesting - so go catch some speakers - there's several everyday for the next two weeks - and see what you all think...

- Robin,
Thanks for the clarification. I was confused, too. I guess I only looked at the conference briefly and saw some aspects of nutrition or just assumed it would focus on food because of the organization's name.
It does look very nice, indeed. Thanks for pointing this out. -

This is a very eclectic healing conference - all kinds of topics, from helpful physical info, to healing attitudes, etc. See my top post for the url where you can sign up and watch.
Anyone can dip into it as you wish - around 10 experts are being featured a day, anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour each.
Lyme disease and related issues have been mentioned a little bit, and I'm always glad when they are, as they could be contributing to and causing mystery ailments being discussed.
Want to say my mind was blown by a presentation yesterday, and it's not often when someone can blow my mind! I had to listen twice just to kind of take in what they were saying!
The speaker was Dr Jack Kruse, he's a neurosurgeon, he's got a website (www.jackkruse.com) and active blog.
His topic was the physics of healing. He said that the biochemical model does not go deeply enough to explain what's happening in the body.
I don't think I'm going to be able to really explain all this stuff, as it's new for me.
However, I totally resonated with what he was saying, because of my past mysterious results with healing modalities I tried in the past to heal whatever ailed me, ie unknown Lyme.
One of my experiences was looking at flashing purple light, 6x/sec, for 20 minutes, then leaving the office and crossing a field to get back to the bus stop.
Suddenly I realized I could smell again, as I was smelling all these field plants. I had had a "dead" nose for several years. The bus dropped me off in front of a restaurant in SF that was offering free wine tasting. So I thought I'd check it out, with my new-found ability to smell again.
And for the first time, had an inkling of what people have talked about re bouquet of this and that smells and tastes and aromas in their favorite wines.
This story, btw, was one that the lumatron people - the name of the light machine - enjoyed, and I had my own story told back to me many years later by someone associated with the machine!
But it made no sense to me - purple light, through the eyes, restored my sense of smell (for 18 months, then it disappeared again)?? I used to try to bat my eyes at purple anything to see if I could duplicate the flashing purple light, but it never worked!
Dr Kruse's talk was the first talk to shed some light, so to speak, on this experience. I'm not going to vouch for what he said, just that he did say that he has citations from the scientific literature for everything he's saying.
He said that the hydrogen atom, H2, has an affinity with purple light - that atoms give off light and the one associated with hydrogen is purple.
Now, hydrogen is the smallest element. It's a proton with an electron strip. A lot of phenomena that we don't understand is happening at that level - at an atomic level, a particle level, ie at the level of quantum mechanics.
To move on: He said that the mitochondria in all our cells, ie the organelles that create our energy, use an electron transport chain to get their energy. He said that food is broken down into electrons which get used for creating our energy, thus food is a proxy for light. And indeed, that's how plants are generated in the first place, with interaction between sunlight and chlorophyll in the plants that absorb the light.
The mitochondria monitor electrical signals from electrons. Mitochondria are filled with hydrogen-signalling molecules. If they lose control of the electronic signals, then disease develops.
He said our circadian rhythm - ie 24 hour rhythm is controlled by quantum physics. Our daily rhythm depends on light, water and magnetism.
Water is good for us - it has a lot of molecular hydrogen in it. Alkalinized water is best. I recall that whole life expos were always demonstrating magnetized water as being good for us.
All our seasons have different temperatures. The amount of photonic power - light is made up of photons - in the photons connected with electrons varies according to the various temperatures. He called them quantum nanoheat machines.
The mitochondria can tell the difference between all the seasons as they handle the varied energy from the electrons that derive from the foods of that season.
Mitochondria are small nanoelectromagnets designed to pick up a magnetic signal. Then they transduce that signal into another form of energy our cells can make sense of. They change light into DC current. Our bodies are electromagnetic, remember, and operate as such.
He said only one lipid - ie, type of fat - can make that change occur, ever since our biological type, called eukaryotes, burst on the scene in the Cambrian age, and it's never changed nor ever been replaced.
This lipid is called DHA, it's not coded in our DNA, it's only found in seafood (hm - think primordial waters and early life...). The cell membranes of the mitochondria, I think he said, need to be loaded with DHA in order to make DC electric current for our body to use.
Ok, I just googled DHA - it's a polyunsaturated omega-3 fatty acid called docosahexaenoic acid. It's a primary structural component of the brain, retina, heart, etc.
So regarding all our discussions here of taking various sources of omega-3s, maybe we can start to think about it in a different way, ie the way it's being utilized in a physics way in our bodies.
Another tidbit: mitochondria release infrared light when we shiver. It's a healthy light for us.
Now we get to the gut - it's a very big topic these days, as the gut-brain connection is being heavily studied. The gut is full of bacteria, in fact contains hundreds if not thousands of times more bacterial cells than us. It's called the gut microbiome, and there are entire free online webinars on this gut health topic.
The gut microbiome co-evolved with bacteria. Bacteria can release light. Second, we need their molecular hydrogen.
Gut membranes also have DHA in them, which utilize what the bacteria can offer them - ie, light and molecular hydrogen.
Btw, I was also informed at another science event that stem cells, which generate our tissues, also have the capacity to capture light, much as a silicon chip in electronics captures electronic energy, in stacks. So eventually we may come to understand how everything works similarly where light energy is involved in creating life's various energies.
The two organs in our body with the highest mitochondrial density are the heart and the brain.
Somewhere I took down a statement that the heart's magnetic field extends out for 22 feet. We may be having a magnetic experience re feeling in our heart area.
Our modern life interrupts a lot of this electromagnetic chemistry and is not good for us. Nonnative electromagnetic energies affect our magnetic perceptions and cause light indigestion. Leaky gut is a form of light indigestion. The problem lies with hydrogen generation in the gut mitochondria.
Here's another tidbit - proteins are folded molecules in us, but when they are misfolded, they can't generate the right frequency of light that we need.
I feel like I've just started to mention the key players for energy in our world and us - as I or others here make sense of this, we may get to a more "physics" understanding of what's right and wrong for us.
Then, obviously, we try to generate more of what's good for us and less of what's not good for us.
