Dr Jack Kruse joins me to continue our discussion on WATER and its bio-physical properties as it relates to human health and disease. In this conversation Dr Kruse explains deuterium, the fourth phase of water, food as an electromagnetic barcode of sunlight, cellular redox, mitochondria as your 6th sense, the fundamental drivers of metabolic disease, and much, much more.

This is Part III of the Jack Kruse Series. In these conversations we explore Dr Kruse’s paradigm of health centered on Light, Water and Magnetism, mitochondrial and circadian function and how these are impacted to influence human health and disease.

Dr Jack Kruse is a practicing neurosurgeon, biophysicist and health optimisation researcher. He has done extensive research into the causes of human disease with a highly unique perspective grounded in bio-physics.

TIMESTAMPS
00:00:35 Podcast begins

00:1:45 Water is made in the mitochondrial matrix through fats, proteins and carbohydrates and is deuterium-depleted

00:03:50 What is deuterium? As it relates to the hydrology cycle of different continents

00:12:30 The different biological effects of deuterium

00:19:07 Food is an electromagnetic bar-code of the sunlight as we rotate around the sun, and eating tropical fruit out of season causes chaos and mitochondrial inefficiency

00:24:00 The quantum effects of collecting H+

00:25:50 Gerald Pollack, Del Diucie and the Fourth Phase of Water

00:32:51 Cephalopods have extremely primitive brains

00:37:04 The role of deuterium & DHA in human evolution and brain complexity

00:45:10 Consuming deuterium-rich water does not affect the mitochondria ability to create deuterium-depleted water inside the mitochondrial matrix if cellular redox is intact

00:47:45 Cellular redox is the net negative charge of the cell, and is built when light hits water to charge separate it and create free electrons

00:56:10 Impaired cellular redox leads to mitochondrial heteroplasmy & disease

01:04:30 Dr Max summarizes the first hour of the discussion. You don’t have a metformin deficiency, you have an electron deficiency.

01:12:49 Mitochondria sense your environment and inform the leptin melanocortin system in the hypothalamus and thalamus

01:18:20 Eating out of season causes mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation and circadian mismatch

01:33:20 Does physical form equal optimal health? The health consequences of ‘burying’ excess mitochondria in muscles

01:36:48 The harms of visceral fat, and WHY it gets deposited in visceral vs subcutaneous compartments – a light & melanin problem

01:45:12 Retinal and brain changes on MRI imaging of metabolic disease and fatty liver

01:52:25 Fatty liver as storage for metabolic water

01:56:15 The clinical uses of retinal Optical coherence tomography (OCT) to diagnose and treat metabolic diseases

*My mistake, I was unfamiliar with the OCT imaging modality, it uses infrared light to image the retina and does NOT use ionising radiation (as does comp
