The Tyranny of Progressives
The Biology of Carbon Dioxide
STORY AT-A-GLANCE
- Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a driver of energy production, as it improves the delivery of oxygen into your cells. CO2 also helps protect against the harmful effects of lipid peroxidation
- CO2 and lactate have opposing effects. Lactate is the byproduct of metabolizing glucose without oxygen in the cytoplasm. So, where lactate causes problems, CO2 has beneficial effects
- Elevated lactate production is a common theme in diabetes, Alzheimer’s, heart failure, shock and general aging. It promotes inflammation and degrades mitochondrial function. Conversely, low CO2 concentrations have been linked to epileptic seizures, muscle spasms, inflammation, hypothyroidism, stroke and clotting disorders
- All these issues, whether caused by elevated lactate or low CO2, can be successfully treated with CO2 therapies of various kinds, such as CO2 baths (where CO2 is pumped into the tub, much like bathing in carbonated mineral water) or adding CO2 into standard hyperbaric treatment
- Simpler ways to raise your tissue content of CO2 include breathing into a paper bag, having an adequate supply of calcium, and supplementing with salt, baking soda or carbonated beverages
In this 2010 interview, the late Ray Peat, a biologist and physiologist who specialized in the bioenergetic theory of health,1 reviewed some of the key benefits of CO2 and how it works within the human body. This article is a summary of the key points made in that interview.
I apologize for the video quality. The video was recorded 13 years ago, and appears to have been shot on a cell phone. In 2010 the cameras were not very good. However, the audio is fine, and more importantly, this information is really hard to come by since Peat is no longer with us. Only 2,000 people had viewed it when I first saw it.
I watched it four times as it is so good. I’m convinced optimizing your carbon dioxide (CO2) level is one of the most important strategies you can do to slow down degeneration due to aging.
On that point, I will be interviewing one of the leading breathing experts in the world, Peter Litchfield, Ph.D., who will educate us on why most breathing techniques don’t work, as they don’t address the underlying triggered breathing habits that lower CO2.
CO2 Is Crucial for Optimal Health
CO2 is typically thought of as nothing more than a harmful waste product of respiration, and a “pollutant” that endangers the earth by raising global temperatures.
The reality is that CO2 is a driver of mitochondrial energy production, and it improves the delivery of oxygen into your cells. It’s also essential for most life on Earth, plants in particular. In fact, CO2 appears to be a more fundamental component of living matter than oxygen.2 All of this was well-known in decades past, but somehow knowledge about the beneficial effects of CO2 has been suppressed over time.
Importantly, CO2 allows for more efficient energy production in your mitochondria, which is why people who live or spend time at higher altitudes tend to be healthier and have fewer chronic health problems such as asthma. The reason for this is because the pressure of CO2 relative to oxygen is greater at higher altitudes.
A Simple Biohack to Boost CO2
According to Forbes Health, biohacking is “a term used to describe various tips and tricks for enhancing the body’s ability to function at peak performance — and maybe even extend one’s lifespan.”
A biohack for mimicking being at a higher altitude in order to boost CO2 is to breathe into a paper lunch bag for a minute or two. The bag should not be too small or too large (an ideal size is 6 inches by 15 inches, or 15 centimeters by 38 centimeters). Breathe into the bag with your mouth and nose covered until you feel better.
With each exhale, you expel carbon dioxide. By rebreathing the carbon dioxide inside the paper bag, you effectively raise your carbon dioxide level. According to Peat, breathing into a paper bag a few times a day has been shown to bring blood pressure down by as much as 30 points, and stabilize it there after a few days of repetition.
CO2 and Lactate Have Opposing Effects
As explained by Peat, CO2 and lactate have opposing effects.3,4,5 So, where lactate causes problems, CO2 has beneficial effects.
For example, elevated lactate production is a common theme in diabetes, Alzheimer’s, heart failure, shock and general aging. It promotes inflammation and degrades mitochondrial function. Conversely, low CO2 concentrations have been linked to epileptic seizures, muscle spasms, inflammation, hypothyroidism, stroke, and clotting disorders.
According to Peat, all these issues, whether caused by elevated lactate or low CO2, can be successfully treated with CO2 therapies of various kinds, such as CO2 baths (where CO2 is pumped into the tub, much like bathing in carbonated mineral water) or adding CO2 into standard hyperbaric treatment.
Simpler ways to raise your tissue content of CO2 include breathing into a small paper lunch bag a few times a day as detailed above, having an adequate supply of calcium, and supplementing with salt, baking soda or carbonated beverages.6
Peat tells the story of how he told an individual suffering from transient ischemic attacks who’d gone to the emergency room with stroke symptoms and paralysis on several occasions to drink a soda or carbonated water when the attacks occurred, as the bubbles in carbonated drinks are CO2 gas. “That worked for him,” he said.
CO2 Promotes Efficient Energy Production
Lactate is the byproduct of glycolysis, or nonaerobic respiration. It occurs when your mitochondria are compromised and are unable to metabolize glucose. Instead of pyruvate going to the mitochondria to be burned, it is oxidized to lactate in the cell’s cytoplasm. When this occurs in the presence of oxygen it is called the Warburg Effect, which is major pathway that cancer cells use.
As illustrated in the graph below, glucose can be metabolized in two different ways. When fat intake is too high, glucose is burned though glycolysis, which uses no oxygen and produces lactate. This is a highly inefficient way to produce energy, as it generates only 2 ATP per glucose molecule. And, in the context of this article, no CO2.
When fat intake is in the sweet spot of 15% to 40%, and glucose intake is high enough, it can be burned for fuel in the mitochondria. This generates up to 38 ATP per glucose molecule. In this process, NADH and CO2 are also produced.7
If fat intake is over 40% and the carb intake is below 200 grams per day, the glucose is burned in glycolysis in the cell’s cytoplasm, which produces lactate that suppresses glucose oxidation and shifts metabolism to the burning of fats instead.
Lactate also promotes inflammation and fibrosis. CO2, meanwhile, limits the formation of lactate, increases oxidation of glucose, helps trigger mitochondrial formation (i.e., boosts the number of mitochondria in your cells) and boosts cellular ATP concentrations.8
As explained by Peat, glycolysis products (pyruvate and lactate) compete with CO2 for binding sites inside the mitochondrion. Glycolysis decreases energy production by reducing CO2.
Energy Production Summary
In summary, two key points from all this are:
1.The most efficient way to generate cellular energy is to burn glucose in the electron transport chain of your mitochondria (aerobic respiration). In addition to generating up to 38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule (opposed to the two generated through glycolysis), it also generates an estimated 50% more CO2 than fat oxidation.9
In order for glucose to be metabolized in your mitochondria, your dietary fat intake needs to be sufficiently low so as not to inhibit the oxidation of glucose. While there’s no hard evidence on how much fat is too much, I suspect you need to restrict fat to 30% or 40%, depending on your individual needs, to optimize your glucose metabolism.
2.There are two possible energy states:
i.A glycolytic stress state in which energy production is reduced by the inhibition of CO2.
ii.An energy-efficient state in which CO2 is produced and lactate is suppressed.
CO2 Protects Against Lipid Peroxidation
CO2 also helps protect against the harmful effects of lipid peroxidation. Lipid peroxidation10 refers to a process in which free radicals and other harmful oxidants attack lipids (fats) that have carbon-carbon double bonds. Polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) such as linoleic acid (LA) are particularly prone to this.
The key that many fail to recognize is that lipid peroxidation increases when CO2 levels are low, as CO2 protects the fats from damage. As explained by Peat, when CO2 is low, that’s when PUFAs increase their production of lipid peroxides11 (oxidation products of phospholipids).
Lipid peroxides degrade into reactive aldehydes such as malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxy-2-noneal (4-HNE), which damage DNA and proteins, causing them to malfunction. Lipid peroxidation is known to contribute to conditions such as cancer, atherosclerosis and neurodegenerative conditions, just to name a few.12
Peat cites one experiment in which they showed that when you raise the CO2 in human tissues to three times normal, the amount of lipid peroxides went to zero. So, CO2 has a potent anti-inflammatory effect and effectively protects against lipid peroxidation.
This is an important piece of information, as most people nowadays consume enormously excessive amounts of seed oils that are loaded with PUFAs, and thus have very elevated levels of stored LA in their cells.
As explained in “Linoleic Acid — The Most Destructive Ingredient in Your Diet,” LA is a primary contributor to chronic disease, as it causes mitochondrial dysfunction and promotes inflammation.
Augmenting CO2 in your tissues may be an effective way to limit LA-induced damage while you work to eliminate the excess LA from your tissues and replace it with healthy fats (which can take six or seven years).
How Lactate and CO2 Influence Stress
Peat also goes into an extended discussion involving many separate pieces to explain how lactate and CO2 influence the stress response and other parts of human biology that impact disease, including cancer.
For starters, the cytochrome oxidase enzyme — also known as Complex IV in the mitochondrial electron transport chain, which is what uses oxygen — governs your rate of oxygen consumption.
So, the more cytochrome oxidase you have, and the more active it is, the greater your oxygen consumption. Cytochrome oxidase is also responsible for increasing the total number of mitochondria within the cell as needed to accommodate for increased oxygen consumption.
When you saturate a cell with a very large amount of CO2, you rapidly increase the amount of cytochrome oxidase in the cell, and you boost its activity almost instantly. This shifts the oxidative balance of the cell towards the oxidized state, as electrons are being pulled out of the system. This lowers reductive stress in the cell, which is what you want to do.
In healthy cells, there’s a balance between NAD+ and NADH that is critical for energy production. Conditions like cancer or diabetes disrupt this balance, leading to excess lactate and reduced NAD+. Carbon dioxide is crucial because it prevents excessive lactate production, maintaining a healthy NAD+ to NADH ratio.
CO2 also influences the water balance in cells, supporting an oxidized cellular condition with lowered reductive stress that results in proper oxygen utilization. Hyperventilation, or over-breathing, which reduces CO2, typically leads to overproduction of lactate, contributing to stress and disrupting cellular balance.
CO2 in Emergency Care
Peat also discusses the role of CO2 in emergency care that has the potential to save your life or the life of someone you love. Stroke patients are typically ventilated with pure oxygen to prevent hypoxia-induced brain damage,13 but this isn’t the best way to help these patients.
A ventilation strategy called permissive hypercapnia appears to be far better. Permissive hypercapnia refers to a ventilation strategy employing partial pressures of CO2 that are higher than physiological norms. I have been encouraging those in the hyperbaric oxygen community to explore and adopt this strategy in their hyperbaric chambers. As explained by Peat:
“Quite a few people are now, just in the last few years, starting to talk about permissive hypercapnia … instead of ventilating someone to death [by] giving them pure oxygen. When people aren’t getting enough oxygen to the brain, they’ll give them pure oxygen and then hyperventilate them.
The idea is to shrink their brain by hyperventilating them, because it shuts down the blood circulation of the brain. But if they’re dying of a lack of oxygen to the brain, [that’s] not what you want to do …
I had mentioned [using carbonated beverages during ischemic stroke] in a nutrition class. I had said soda water, meaning carbonated water, but the next week, one of the students said that she had interpreted it as baking soda in water.
Basically, it’s the same idea, but she said she gave a spoonful of baking soda to her mother who had been half-paralyzed for six months, and 15 minutes after drinking just a glass of baking soda water the paralysis lifted and stayed away.”
The reason baking soda worked in this case is probably because CO2 is carried through your bloodstream by sodium bicarbonate (baking soda).14 Peat goes on to discuss how, in the past, firemen used to carry CO2 for the treatment of shock and respiratory arrest.
In the 1920s, Yandell Henderson, director of the Yale Laboratory of Applied Physiology, devised a system using oxygen with 5%, 7% or 10% CO2 added in. Fire departments all over the United States, and many hospitals, were using 5% CO2 to resuscitate babies that had stopped breathing and treat shock cases. It was also used post-operatively to aid in the recovery process.
The Green Agenda’s Flawed View of CO2
In closing, Peat also overturned key arguments of the green agenda by pointing out that during the Carboniferous period of Earth’s history, when plant and animal life was extraordinarily abundant, carbon dioxide levels were some 20 times higher than they are now, and temperatures were relatively stable.
“The expansion of vegetation will reflect infrared rays back into space,” he said, “so it’s sort of like the Earth has a thermostat that will regulate for huge changes in in CO2,” he said.
Even more importantly, nothing thrives in low CO2 environments — not plants, not animals or insects and, as evidenced by everything discussed above, not humans. If anything, the world may actually need a bit more CO2, seeing how CO2-deficiency states are rampant, forests are dying and plants aren’t growing very well. As noted by Peat:
“All animals and even plants suffer from a lack of carbon dioxide. If you lower it, even plants won’t do well … In the 1940s, people experimented with poisoning to death rats or mice with 50% carbon dioxide, keeping them dead for an hour and then reviving them, and they had no brain damage. If they gave them extra CO2, they weren’t damaged by the absence of oxygen. So, for primitive organisms, it’s more essential than oxygen.”
The increasingly erratic weather systems we’re now experiencing likely have little to do with the CO2 content of our atmosphere, and far more to do with a combination of decades-long weather manipulation15 and natural solar cycles.16,17

If You Have Lyme, Morgellons or Unexplained Health Issues, Read This
Morgellon’s, Lyme disease aka nanotubes and how to deal with these lab created nano tube infections while Rothchilds are spraying you like bug with intention to create intrabody area network with help of these nanotubes and today with the help of Covid bioweapon injection technology to make you part of surveillable world internet system.
CHEMFLU~LYME~MORGELLONS CURES
Lyme symptoms flare up depending on our emotional state, how happy we are, our stress level, diet, exposure to environmental toxins and EMF pollution, our exercise and sunlight exposure and our commitment to maintaining an anti-infectious body terrain. Pathogens such as Lyme associated Borrelia burgdorferi require a toxic host with a weak immune system in order to survive. To eliminate Morgellons, you need to reinstate the immune system by doing a heavy metal cleanse, eliminate candida overgrowth, stop life-harming addictions and detoxify and regenerate the liver.
Symptoms increase when you drink alcohol, eat sugar or damage your immune system with processed and cooked foods etc… The first issue to address is backing off of sugar, alcohol, grains, coffee, smoking etc… Grains and all other dead/cooked sugars are fuel for candida, Lyme, Morgellons and other pathogens including the newfangled genetically engineered pathogens being sprayed on us from above via chemtrails. The Morgellons fiber growth feeds off of sugar, as does Lyme and Candida, and these also complex the heavy metals in their biofilms and structures, locking away the heavy metals in the body and preventing their elimination. When these pathogens establish themselves in the joints this leads of arthritic type soreness and in the brain, it leads to brain fog, memory loss and the loss of sensory acuity.
To deal with the chemtrail bioweapons a comprehensive program that needs to be undertaken that includes going on a ketogenic fast, and/or by eating 1 tsp of coconut oil every 2 hours, or monolaurin (for Lyme, bacteria, viruses, fungi) is the fastest way to remedy the situation. But we also have to increase cell voltage, remagnetize the body, do the heavy metal chelators, take antifungal and antiviral agents, break down the biofilms and do colon cleanses to eliminate the accumulated morbid mucoid layer in the GI tract. Mucoid plaque is a term was coined by Richard Anderson, author of “Cleanse and Purify Thyself,” to describe what he claimed to be a combination of harmful mucus-like material and food residue that coats the gastrointestinal tract of most people. It is said that the black mucoid plaque must be removed to achieve physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health.
Lyme disease is exceedingly difficult to treat, due to its well-known shape-shifting (pleomorphic) abilities and biofilm, with conventional antibiotics often failing to produce a long-term cure. Whatever “cures” you employ you need to incorporate them as party of your diet and daily routine. Preventing and treating Lyme disease symptoms by improving overall immune system and cleanse your body of immune-compromising toxic heavy metals and other toxins. In order to minimize inflammatory cytokine cascades, you must have good gut health including strong digestive enzymes, good bacteria, and adequate stomach acid.
For those not already in a high fever, then heating the body helps to kill off pathogens. Hyperthermia treatment in a sauna or infrared sauna, steam room, and hot and cold while taking antifungal/antibiotic herbs like Cat’s Claw, Olive Leaf and Stevia Leaf, plus Cayenne pepper to assist. Also whole-body hyperthermia makes other forms of cancer treatment work better.
If you have coinfections such as Lyme, Morgellons or Mycoplasma you need to adopt an anti-candida-type diet, and stay away from sugar, alcohol, cereals and life harming addictions like smoking. The anti-infection diet needs to be free of gluten/cereal, dairy, sugar and consist largely of fresh-raw fruit and vegetables, bitter herbs, non-damaged fats, plant proteins, and sprouts for enzymes. Due to the demineralized cooked food diet, the average human is overrun with candida sp. which makes us vulnerable to infectious disease, cancer and Morgellons. Both sugar, cereals and alcohol should be avoided as they feed pathogens.
People are finding probiotic fermented cabbage juice (not Jillie’s Juice)beneficial to cleanse the liver and thus support resistance to Morgellons and Borrelia. Probiotic fermented cabbage and cabbage juice is a fast fix for inflammation pain. The Max Gerson method of cancer cure with fresh potassium rich juice (carrot, celery, beet, apple), in association with coffee enemas will stimulate the immune system to overcome Lyme bacteria and other infections. By detoxifying the liver and colon coffee enemas treat the emotional basis of disease, treating depression and mental illness.
COPPER: Copper deficiency reduces the elimination of iron and heavy metals. Colloidal Copper and Niacin + D-Ribose helps eliminate spirochetes and other pathogens and repairs DNA and repairs telomeres. Copper peptides help convert the amino acids to collagen. Taking copper rich food sources not only helps maintain healthy white blood cell numbers, but it also helps your cells better engulf pathogens. Copper Rich Foods: Beef liver, sunflower seeds, lentils, almonds, dried apricots, dark chocolate, molasses and asparagus. Many of the excellent food sources of copper are leafy greens, including turnip greens, spinach, Swiss chard, kale, and mustard greens, legumes, whole grains, nuts, and seeds. There is an inexpensive way of getting chelated copper into the body to reduce mycoplasma, Morgellons and Lyme infection. You can add copper sulfate to the soil when growing vege greens in the garden, or wheatgrass sprouts and microgreens. You can also spray colloidal copper on growing food so that it is absorbed and chelated.
THREONINE: A therapeutic dose of 8-15g/day of the essential amino acid Threonine supports thymus growth, is an immuno-stimulant and reduces inflammation. Threonine improves intestinal absorption, helps metabolize fat and prevents fatty liver. It also strengthens collagen, elastin and tooth enamel. L-Threonine is useful for improving mental stability, irritability and reducing spasms, as it increases glycine in the brain and acts as a calmative and sedative. 1g in the morning and evening reduces depression. Threonine also aids in the formation of B12, and needs to be taken along with B6, B3 and Magnesium. Threonine stabilizes Blood Sugar by improving gluconeogenesis (the creation of glucose) in the liver. Threonine and Lysine is found in cottage cheese and wheat germ, chicken, brewers yeast, eggs and other protein foods.
LYSINE: Lysine is the rate limiting essential amino acid necessary for the production of skin, bones, cartilage, connective tissue, nails and hair. The levels of the amino acid Lysine go down with stress, age and poor diet reducing epithelial collagen strength and leaving us vulnerable to infection by bacteria, fungi and viruses. Lysine along with cofactors B-complex and Vitamin C are involved in the production of the coenzyme acetyl CoA, and in carbohydrate metabolism. In fact Vitamin C increases Lysine strength and levels in the body. Lysine deficiency causes a loss of calcium in urine. For Herpes (and other viruses) take lysine, zinc, Vitamin C and bioflavonoids, and use Zovirax cream or 4% zinc sulphate topical solution for lesions and sores. Avoid foods high in arginine when taking Lysine therapeutically as it competes; and avoid copper as it degrades lysine. Lysine is a biosorbent that protects against heavy metal toxicity by chelating the metals so they can be removed from the body.
N-ACETYL CYSTEINE: The sulfur containing amino acid N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) can help with a diverse array of issues including mood disorders, brain issues, lung problems, sleep disorders, infections, and oxidative stress. NAC is more detoxifying to the body than Vitamin C, is a powerful liver-detoxifier and it can even offer protection against the flu. NAC aerosol nasal spray such as NAX (N-acetyl cysteine & Vitamin C) can help drain the sinuses and mucus burdened bronchioles, and helping to reduce fluid in the lungs. Nebulized glutathione or NAC is one of the most efficient antioxidants/anti-inflammatories used in treating conditions of the respiratory tract infections, pulmonary fibrosis, asthma, emphysema, and lung cancer.
GLUTATHIONE: The levels of the body’s main antioxidant Glutathione reduce as we age. NAC increases glutathione levels which promotes the proper functioning of B-cells, T-cells and phagocytosis. In high doses NAC is anti radiation and anti-tumor, it chelates heavy metals, dissolves kidney stones as well as improving lung and skin conditions. Glutathione helps transport amino acids across membranes, including L-alanine and threonine, which are necessary for the production of lymphocytes (white blood cells) and macrophages, as well as red blood cells. Glutathione levels are high in the thymus gland; in fact thymus size increases when supported with supplemental NAC to boost glutathione levels, along with supporting cofactors such as Vitamin C, Zinc, Selenium, Beta Carotene and Alpha Lipoic acid. IV Glutathione has been found effective for treating Parkinson’s. Cruciferous vegetables include broccoli sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, garlic mustard, cabbage and kale, and in addition to providing sulforaphane, they are some of the richest food sources of glutathione.
QUICK FIXES: Juicing a cabbage and putting probiotics in it, and drinking a shot glass every few hours should quickly reduce symptoms. Sore inflamed joints can be rubbed with DMSO, Magnesium Chloride Sol, Black Seed Oil or Castor Oil for immediate relief. A bath with Baking soda, Sea salt, Epsom salt and Borax will detox and alkalize your blood, providing immediate relief. For Lyme and other bacteria take 5,000iu vitamin D3 and 100 mcg K2 a day for 16 months to completely eradicate these infections. Omega 3-Krill oil, Magnesium, CoQ10, Turmeric, and Probiotics. Medical Mushrooms: Reishi Mushroom is known to digest or block the following pathogens: Aspergillus niger, Bacillus subtilis, Candida albicans, and Escherichia coli.
Other ingredients may be Hyaluronic Acid, Fulvic Acid, DMSO and MSM. Put in spray bottles and keep in the fridge, spray face, neck, chest etc… throughout the day, and especially just before bed. It reduces the stress lines in the face, and relaxes wrinkles…it also feeds and softens the skin. It would be helpful to heal the Morgellons/Lyme/Mycoplasma skin lesions caused by chemtrails. Itching stops within hours. Our bodies make Creatine from the amino acids glycine, arginine and methionine. Creatine may be key to turning the body toward anabolic building metabolism for it increases protein synthesis, especially within muscle fibers.
ARGIRELINE: (Acetyl Hexapeptide-8) is a peptide that visibly reduces wrinkles, scars and lesions. It relaxes the muscles in the face to promote a smoother, less wrinkled look. Argireline is a unique peptide composed of three amino acids: glutamic acid, methionine and arginine. Argireline is expensive, however you can make your own version of the anti-aging formula by mixing a tsp each of glutamic acid, methionine, arginine and magnesium chloride in a cup of special water (ORMUS Trap, octagonal, shungite water or high silicon spring water).
ANTI-INFLAMMATORIES: Some herbal remedies to reduce inflammatory cytokines and repair glial scarring are: Artemisia, Astragalus, Bromelain, Boswellia (frankincense), Capparis spinosa, Celery seed, Cordyceps, Ginkgo, Licorice root, Lion’s Mane Mushroom, Magnolia, Olea europaea, Paeonia lactiflora, Propolis, Punica granatum, Japanese Knotweed, Banana Tree Stem Sap, Red Sage, Rhodiola, Skullcap and Schisandra berry, Turmeric, Green Tea leaf extract, NAC and Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), Royal Jelly, Yuan Zhi (Chinese Senega or Snakeroot). Grate some ginger root and make 6 cups of ginger tea per day; this will cure the fuzzy head by settling the stomach and cutting inflammation in the brain.
ANTIHISTAMINES: Antihistamines assist in the alleviation of symptoms from infection with spirochetes and other bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma and fungi. Wild oregano, rosemary and thyme (herb and oil) contains a substance called Rosmarinic Acid which is a powerful antihistamine and antioxidant. Turmeric inhibits anaphylactic shock, stabilizes mast cells and prevents histamine release. Other antihistamines include, Angelica, Ashitaba, Watercress, Pea sprouts, Onions and Garlic, Moringa, Holy basil, Tarragon, Sage, Savory, Hyssop, Chamomile, Grape seed, Skullcap, Jewelweed, Catnip, Feverfew, Goldenseal, Stinging Nettle, Catnip, Cayenne pepper, Black Pepper, Peppermint, Black cumin seed, Galangal and Ginger, Lotus root, Pomegranate, Capers, Mangosteen, Rhodiola, Milk Thistle, Propolis and Pine bark.
A diet rich in the flavonoid luteolin has been shown to reduce mast cell activation. This is found in carrots, bell peppers, thyme, rosemary, peppermint, oregano, romaine lettuce, artichoke, pomegranate, rooibos tea, buckwheat sprouts and cucumbers among other things. Lemon balm is a viricide and soothes nasal passages; skullcap is anti-inflammatory, and antihistamine, aids in treating allergies or allergic rhinitis, particularly when used with stinging nettle. The fullerenes in Shungite have pronounced anti-inflammatory, antihistamine, analgesic, anti-allergenic, detoxifying, immune-enhancing effects, and can be ingested like activated charcoal. Shungite charged water sprayed on the skin offers relief.
***Dr. Cass Ingram has great home-cure books on all aspects of Chemtrail survival including “Natural Cures for Radiation and The Lyme Disease Cure.” Dr. Cass Ingram includes in his Lyme Protocol: Wild Oregano, Bilberry extract (25% anthocyanosides), Noni, Milk Thistle, Echinacea (purpurea & angustifolia), Goldenseal, Shiitake, White Willow (bark), Garlic, Grapeseed extract (min. 90% polyphenols), Pine bark, Black Walnut (hull and leaf), Raspberry, Fumitory, Gentian, Tea Tree oil, Galbanum oil, Lavender oil (plant & flower), Oregano oil (plant & flower). I would suggest a Tea made from Elderberry, Elder Flowers, and St John’s Wort as an antiviral.
RAW COCONUT: Fresh raw coconut flesh contains high levels of lauric acid, a type of saturated fat that resists harmful viruses, bacteria, and fungi, and promotes brain health. The natural water from a young, raw coconut, for instance, is loaded with vitamins, minerals, and electrolytes, and is perfectly balanced to keep your body hydrated and nourished. Raw coconut can also help boost energy levels, promote healthy thyroid function and hormone levels, rejuvenate skin, and heal a damaged gut.
SPICY COCONUT CHAI: An antiseptic tea can be made with coconut milk, cinnamon stick, cardamom, clove, galangal, pinch of black pepper and turmeric and ginger root.
SYMBION FOR LIFE: This probiotic is especially formulated with three strains of lactic acid bacteria that have been proven to not only get the aggressive candida strains back under control and to prevent the overgrowth of the aggressive strains of candida in the future. Morgellons sufferers find it beneficial. www.symbionprobiotics.com
COLLOIDAL SILVER is a popular broad spectrum germ killer. Colloidal silver treatment protocol known to effectively disable the bacterial coinfections of Lyme disease. Colloidal silver works quickly — killing disease-causing organisms in six minutes or less and the pathogens cannot develop resistance to it.
DMSO/Ag/Si: The Philosopher’s water works to reduce the Chembug, especially in association with intermittent fasting of 3 days, to reboot the immune system every week (for severe cases) or every month (for mild cases). Colloidal Silver, DMSO and Silicon may be a method of killing nano-bacteria, Lyme, mycoplasma and candida inside of cells in the body.
STEVIA LEAF TINCTURE: Whole leaf Stevia tincture absorbed sublingually may effectively kill Borrelia burgdorferi spirochetes and cyst forms, stevia also effectively reduces the biofilm of B. burgdorferi by about 40%. Liquid Stevia made from alcohol extraction was most effective against Borrelia, while the powder form showed no effect. Alcohol extraction of whole leaf Stevia provides a safe and more effective means to combat Lyme spirochete infection. Stevia is three hundred times sweeter than sugar, has zero calories and does not raise blood sugar levels. To treat Lyme disease, the chemical compounds present in stevia must be absorbed through the intestines — but the reason it works so well as a sweetener is because these substances are not absorbed through the intestines. To get around this point a whole leaf stevia tincture used sublingually (under the tongue) may work to get the active anti-lyme ingredients directly into the bloodstream — and consequently into the brain The Stevia/Propolis tincture is taken sublingually to kill the spirochetes, even those in the brain. *The whole leaf Stevia powder is so fine, the tincture doesn’t need to be filtered and put into dropper bottles, instead the thick brandy/herb mixture can be put into a small amber bottle and applied under the tongue with the back of a small spoon.
*CAUTION: Although certain stevia preparations fall under the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s “generally recognized as safe” list, they may still cause mild side effects such as nausea. I think Whole leaf Stevia would only cause problems used in large quantities as a sugar substitute. Minute quantities as a sublingual tincture should be fine.
MULTI-TINCTURE: One possible tincture for chemtrail flu/Lyme/Morgellons could be made of the leaves of Bilwa, Olive leaf, Cat’s claw, Guava, Lemon, Graviola, St. John’s Wort, Clove, Wormwood, Sida acuta, Cryptolepis, Andrographis, Stevia leaf, Turmeric, Galangal, Cardamom and Cinnamon sticks. Take directly sublingually or in a small amount of filtered water.
BILWA LEAF: The leaves of Bael patra is considered as one of the most important herbs in Ayurveda. The sacred tree can cure problems like inflammation, bleeding gums, constipation, dysentery, asthma, heart attacks, jaundice, anemia etc. It helps to regulate the digestive system, blood sugar & lipid levels. The extract of unripe Bael fruit can effectively treat hemorrhoids and vitiligo (discolored patches in different areas of the body). It is also used to treat anemia, ear and eye disorders. Extract of Bael fruit has antimicrobial, antiviral and antifungal properties that help in treating various infections in the body. The oil extracts from Bael can be used to cure respiratory disorders like asthma or cold.
BIOCIDIN: Biocidin® has broad reaching effects, including addressing biofilms. Ingredients Bilberry extract (25% anthocyanosides), Noni, Milk Thistle, Echinacea (purpurea & angustifolia), Goldenseal, Shiitake, White Willow (bark), Garlic, Grapeseed extract (min. 90% polyphenols), Black Walnut (hull and leaf), Raspberry, Fumitory, Gentian, Tea Tree oil, Galbanum oil, Lavender oil (plant & flower), Oregano oil (plant & flower).
PURGATIVES: The African plant medicine Iboga, is an alkaloid rich root bark that causes an intense psychological journey, and a serious detox of the body, mind and spirit. During a shamanic Iboga journey the powerful purgative effects can kill and expel viruses, parasites, harmful bacteria, other diseases and nano-fibers from the body. It is said that those who use Iboga would find strange fibers coming out of their stomachs in their vomit. Ayahuasca would have a similar healing effect.
ANTI-NANO-BACTERIA PROTOCOL: David Wolfe has a great Longevity NOW Program for changing the body’s terrain to no longer support nano-bacteria, calcification, candida or cancer. This anti-nano-bacteria protocol is similar to that needed for the complex chemtrail syndrome that includes harmful agents as Lyme, Morgellons, and mycoplasmas and heavy metals. See YouTube Video: David Wolfe Educates About Arthritis, Calcium, Osteoporosis; and the book “Longevity Now: A Comprehensive Approach to Healthy Hormones, Detoxification, Super Immunity, Reversing Calcification, and Total Rejuvenation” (2013).
In the book “Longevity Now,” David Wolfe exposes the number-one cause of all degenerative illness and aging: calcification. Caused by an excess of calcium and the presence of nano-bacteria, calcification can be found in some degree in virtually every adult and even some children. It leads to a plethora of illnesses and manifests as achy joints, hardened arteries, cellulite, cysts, kidney stones, gallstones, dental plaque, cataracts, and bone spurs, among many other health problems. By breaking down calcification and removing parasites, heavy metals, and other “unwanted guests” from your system, you can reverse the aging process and eliminate the prospect of degenerative disease from your future.
ESSENTIAL OILS: Tea Tree oil, Galbanum oil, Thyme, Marjoram, Hyssop, Sage, Savory, Lavender oil, Oregano oil, Frankincense, Thieves, Neem oil and Tamanu oil. Applying an oil, like lavender, to your ankles, lower legs, waist, neck, and arms can repel them and prevent acquiring them and their bites. Lucuma nut oil promotes skin regeneration and wound healing and, thus, may a good base for topical Lyme/Morgellons treatment. The leaves are good for parasites. Cinnamon leaf oil has antiseptic, analgesic, antispasmodic, antibiotic, astringent, carminative, aphrodisiac, cardiac and other benefits. In a Johns Hopkins lab study, essential oils from garlic, myrrh trees, thyme leaves, cinnamon bark, allspice berries, ginger flowers and cumin seeds showed strong killing activity against dormant and slow-growing Lyme disease bacterium.
OXYGEN THERAPIES: Removes heavy metals and prevents pathogen overgrowth. Spirochetes can hide but must feed in plasma. But seem to love red cells at the non-oxygenated side of hemoglobin or in venous blood cells that are O2 deficient. When well oxygenated and the body’s pH is alkaline and bacteria, viruses and fungi can’t reproduce. Food grade Hydrogen Peroxide therapy, Ozone foot bath therapy, Ozone ear insufflation, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Ozone converts ammonia to nitrates.
BORON: Boron improves the natural ability of the human body to absorb calcium and magnesium. Boron significantly reverses arthritis and osteoporosis by improved calcium integration into the cartilage and bones. Boron is able to enhance the testosterone level in males and improves the production of estrogen in women. It increases the level of natural sex hormones and can bring back sex drive within a few days of treatment. Borax is taken throughout the day against Mycoplasma, Morgellons, Nano-bacteria. For internal use make up a recipe of 2 tsp Borax/Qt of distilled water, with 1 tsp to 1 Tbsp taken 3X per day.
Borax in baths and footbaths is also recommended. Externally — soak in a hot bath for over 30 minutes with 1 cup of Epsom Salt, 1 cup of Baking Soda and ¼ cup of Borax; or a footbath with 1/4 cup of each, Epsom Salt, Sea Salt, Borax.
CLAY PACKS: Pure Calcium Bentonite Clay with a 100% negative ionic charge will rid the body of these positive ionic charged nano-particles, by pulling them out the like a magnet. It will also pull out at the same time all the toxins, poisons, heavy metals, unwanted bacteria, viruses, and radiation simply and easily without passing them through the bloodstream at all. Clay and activated charcoal is even stronger at drawing out toxins.
CHARCOAL SOAP: Activated charcoal soap binds to dirt and oil to cleanse your pores, while tea tree oil cleanses and kills bacteria and fungus. It is relief giving to the “itchies” when scented with peppermint oil.
SULFUR SOAP: Helps reduce itching and inflammation of the skin and speeds the healing of acne and infection lesions. Sulfur based Amino Acids Methionine, Cysteine, Homocysteine, and sulfur rich vegetables aid the detox necessary to fight infection. Regularly rub sulfur ointment onto your feet and onto bumpy areas of skin infected with candida.
CASTOR OIL PACKS: Castor oil contains a unique fatty acid that stimulates the liver, reduces inflammation, and increases lymphatic circulation and NK killer cell production (NK cells are lymphocytes that play a major role in deactivating viruses and combating tumors). Castor oil packs before bed can dramatically improve sleep. Packs may also be placed over the thymus gland (under the breastbone) to increase NK cells and over congested lymph nodes to help the lymph move.
REMINERALIZING TOOTHPASTE: A clay, charcoal peppermint toothpaste is great for cleaning the teeth. Make a toothpaste with bentonite clay, food grade calcium phosphate, activated bamboo charcoal mixed with water, ionic minerals and drop or two of peppermint or clove essential oil. Bamboo charcoal has more silicon in it than regular charcoal.
THE LEMON CURE: In case of itching, burning sensation or eczema apply lemon on the affected area. It is very good to cure any kind of skin disease. Cut open a squeezed lemon half and rub on your lesions, acne, scars and marks.
MORGELLONS LESION TREATMENT: Tony Pantalleresco offers a formula for a Topical Solution for Nano Poisoning/Morgellons sores on the face and body. What many are experiencing are sores on their scalp, forehead, jawline, back of ears, neck, back and chest. Mix into a paste and put on offending areas. 2-3 ounces of egg white, 10 drops of rosemary oil, 10-20 drops of iodine, 10-20 drops of colloidal copper.

Gene Therapy Cancer Link
Cancer begins when genetic changes interfere with the normal replication and replacement of cells in the body. Cells start to grow uncontrollably and may form a tumour. It is the No. 2 leading cause of death in the United States.
Unfortunately, it appears the disease may be on the rise thanks to the experimental Covid-19 injections. Because official U.S. Government data confirms the risk of developing cancer following Covid-19 vaccination increases by a shocking 143,233%.

The Hug
The average length of a hug between two people is 3 seconds. But the researchers have discovered something fantastic. When a hug lasts 20 seconds, there is a therapeutic effect on the body and mind. The reason is that a sincere embrace produces a hormone called “oxytocin”, also known as the love hormone. This substance has many benefits in our physical and mental health, helps us, among other things, to relax, to feel safe and calm our fears and anxiety. This wonderful tranquilizer is offered free of charge every time we have a person in our arms, who cradled a child, who cherish a dog or a cat, that we are dancing with our partner, the closer we get to someone or simply hold the Shoulders of a friend.
There is a great deal of scientific evidence related to the importance of hugs and physical contact. Here are some reasons why we should hug::
1. STIMULATES OXYTOCIN
Oxytocin is a neurotransmitter that acts on the limbic system, the brain’s emotional centre, promoting feelings of contentment, reducing anxiety and stress, and even making mammals monogamous. It is the hormone responsible for us all being here today. You see this little gem is released during childbirth, making our mothers forget about all of the excruciating pain they endured expelling us from their bodies and making them want to still love and spend time with us. New research from the University of California suggests that it has a similarly civilising effect on human males, making them more affectionate and better at forming relationships and social bonding. And it dramatically increased the libido and sexual performance of test subjects. When we hug someone, oxytocin is released into our bodies by our pituitary gland, lowering both our heart rates and our cortisol levels. Cortisol is the hormone responsible for stress, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
2. CULTIVATES PATIENCE
Connections are fostered when people take the time to appreciate and acknowledge one another. A hug is one of the easiest ways to show appreciation and acknowledgement of another person. The world is a busy, hustle-bustle place and we’re constantly rushing to the next task. By slowing down and taking a moment to offer sincere hugs throughout the day, we’re benefiting ourselves, others, and cultivating better patience within ourselves.
3. PREVENTS DISEASE
Affection also has a direct response on the reduction of stress which prevents many diseases. The Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami School of Medicine says it has carried out more than 100 studies into touch and found evidence of significant effects, including faster growth in premature babies, reduced pain, decreased autoimmune disease symptoms, lowered glucose levels in children with diabetes, and improved immune systems in people with cancer.
4. STIMULATES THYMUS GLAND
Hugs strengthen the immune system. The gentle pressure on the sternum and the emotional charge this creates activates the Solar Plexus Chakra. This stimulates the thymus gland, which regulates and balances the body’s production of white blood cells, which keep you healthy and disease free.
5. COMMUNICATION WITHOUT SAYING A WORD
Almost 70 percent of communication is nonverbal. The interpretation of body language can be based on a single gesture and hugging is an excellent method of expressing yourself nonverbally to another human being or animal. Not only can they feel the love and care in your embrace, but they can actually be receptive enough to pay it forward to others based on your initiative alone.
6. SELF-ESTEEM
Hugging boosts self-esteem, especially in children. The tactile sense is all-important in infants. A baby recognizes its parents initially by touch. From the time we’re born our family’s touch shows us that we’re loved and special. The associations of self-worth and tactile sensations from our early years are still imbedded in our nervous system as adults. The cuddles we received from our Mom and Dad while growing up remain imprinted at a cellular level, and hugs remind us at a somatic level of that. Hugs, therefore, connect us to our ability to self love.
7. STIMULATES DOPAMINE
Everything everyone does involves protecting and triggering dopamine flow. Low dopamine levels play a role in the neurodegenerative disease Parkinson’s as well as mood disorders such as depression. Dopamine is responsible for giving us that feel-good feeling, and it’s also responsible for motivation! Hugs stimulate brains to release dopamine, the pleasure hormone. Dopamine sensors are the areas that many stimulating drugs such as cocaine and methamphetamine target. The presence of a certain kinds of dopamine receptors are also associated with sensation-seeking.
8. STIMULATES SEROTONIN
Reaching out and hugging releases endorphins and serotonin into the blood vessels and the released endorphins and serotonin cause pleasure and negate pain and sadness and decrease the chances of getting heart problems, helps fight excess weight and prolongs life. Even the cuddling of pets has a soothing effect that reduces the stress levels. Hugging for an extended time lifts one’s serotonin levels, elevating mood and creating happiness.
9. PARASYMPATHETIC BALANCE
Hugs balance out the nervous system. The skin contains a network of tiny, egg-shaped pressure centres called Pacinian corpuscles that can sense touch and which are in contact with the brain through the vagus nerve. The galvanic skin response of someone receiving and giving a hug shows a change in skin conductance. The effect in moisture and electricity in the skin suggests a more balanced state in the nervous system – parasympathetic.
Embrace, embrace with your heart.~~

An aim in life is the only fortune worth finding.
The son and grandson of prominent Scottish engineers, Louis was expected to follow in their footsteps. He dutifully attended engineering school, and excelled there, but upon graduation he disappointed his parents by announcing that he intended to become a writer rather than a civil engineer. Later he would disappoint them again by marrying Fanny Van de Grift Osbourne, a pistol-packing American divorcee who was 12 years his senior.
But following his heart led him ultimately to happiness and success. When he died at age 44 of a cerebral hemorrhage, he was not at a desk in Scotland doing a job he hated, but rather at his home in the South Pacific, happily married and doing a job he loved, his novels Treasure Island and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde having won him enduring fame.
“An aim in life is the only fortune worth finding.”
Robert Louis Stevenson was born on November 13, 1850, one hundred seventy-three years ago.
