The discussion explores the potential protective role of DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) against electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation, suggesting it acts as a biophysical Faraday cage and possesses unique anti-inflammatory properties crucial for human health, particularly in the context of modern technology's impact.

I hope that at some point, like you
mentioned, that eventually the human
species will evolve to a point where we
will have adaptive mechanisms to
tolerate this non-native EMF. I hope,
but I'm not sure if we're going to
manage to do that before many
consequences begin to show up. Maybe
maybe it is happening already. Do you
have any thoughts on that?
>> Yeah, I mean, um as part of my thesis,
if you read it,
you already have some of those
compensatory mechanisms present, and you
don't realize it. So, let's uh go back
15 years when I wrote my book. What's
the name of the book? The Paleo Diet.
>> RX. Where is that book?
There's something above paleo and
carnivore that we should think about.
What is that? DHA. What what else didn't
we talk about about much in the
beginning wiring diagram? I told you
there's something unique about the IMM
that it has no DHA in it, but you want
to know the other interesting thing? DHA
is in every single other membrane in the
human body.
And and it turns out in our brain, we
have more of it than any other place.
Also turns out what houses the leptin
melanocortin pathway in the eye to the
hypothalamus where the leptin receptor
is has more DHA in it than anything else.
else.
So, guess what DHA also is.
It is
like a biophysical Faraday cage in a sense
sense
because it protects us
from EMF. How does it do that? Does it a
lot of different ways, but the number
one way uses the TCA cycle
to create myelin. Everybody knows the
story about children that their brains
are much more sensitive to EMF. So,
So,
that shouldn't be a shock, but what else
do you know about children? Their brains
aren't fully myelinated till
25 years old.
Well, maybe there's a story there that
we're forgetting. This is the reason why
children have this issue with
technology. Then, there's another
evolutionary, how shall we say,
uniqueness to DHA that everyone forgets.
DHA is the only lipid on Earth, and
remember, if you believe evolution, this
is a big statement. It's the only lipid
on Earth that's never been changed in
600 million years.
Why is it that DHA is that special?
Okay, I'm going to tell you the reason
why. A guy that taught me as a resident,
this will show you how he's still alive
today. His name is Nicolas Bazan.
His research found
that DHA is unlike any other
polyunsaturated fat for one reason. When
it breaks down, it creates things called
um neuroprotectins, resolvins, maresins,
and something else, which is called
elvanoids or doc- docosanoids.
These are chemicals that are highly anti-inflammatory,
anti-inflammatory,
not inflammatory like the people like to
tell you about seed oils.
So, it's a polyunsaturated fat that is
extremely unusual. Wow.
Wow.
>> And Nicolas Bazan
did dedicated his whole life to studying
the eyes of mammals because that's where
he is. He's in the Department of
Ophthalmology and Neurosurgery at LSU.
He taught me
that the reason we don't get damage from
uh sunlight is because of the system
that's built in the eye because when we
have photo-oxidation in the eye, the
system is designed DHA is designed to
get rid of the inflammation really fast.
Do a heart stop for a minute and go,
"Wait a minute. Doesn't that sound a
little bit like children
who are getting digital babysat with an
iPad or an iPhone? Maybe they can't have
this protection like the eye has. Maybe
if we can figure out how to fix this
problem sooner, maybe we can avoid
children being digital babysat until
their brains fully myelinated, and then
maybe people won't be born
with the electrosensitivity. And could
this be the reason why
uh certain people are electrosensitive
because they don't have enough DHA
within their central and peripheral
nervous system? Well, it turns out all
those things are true. Imagine a tablet
that doesn't blast artificial blue light
into your eyes, disrupt your sleep, or
sabotage your health, but actually uses
sunlight to power the display. If you've
been listening to this podcast, you
already know how damaging constant
artificial blue light can be on your
circadian rhythm, your sleep, and your
overall health. That's why I love my
Paper Seven tablet by Harbor Reno. It's
definitely one of the most interesting
devices I've used in a while. The Paper
Seven tablet uses something called an
RLCD display, which means there is no
backlight and essentially no blue light.
Instead, it reflects ambient light just
like paper. So, the brighter your
environment, the better the screen
looks. And unlike e-ink devices, which
are slow and stuck in black and white,
this gives you full color, a smooth 60
Hz refresh rate, and the ability to run
all of your favorite apps. It also comes
with 8 GB of RAM for smooth performance,
a 7.8-in display that's perfect for both
reading and productivity. And at only
240 g, it's easy to carry around
anywhere. The battery life holds up
really well, too. You're getting around
10 hours of active use and up to 12 days
on standby. So, you're not constantly
thinking about charging it. For me
personally, I like to use it a lot for
writing, researching, and preparing for
my podcasts. Basically, all of my
administrative work. And the best part
is I can do all of that outdoors in
natural light. So, I can actually
support my biology while I work instead
of fighting against it. And because the
screen gets brighter in brighter
environments, it's incredibly easy on
the eyes even in direct sunlight. I've
also noticed that it naturally improves
my nighttime habits because indoors,
especially at night, the screen isn't
overly bright or stimulating since it
uses your environment to power the
display. So, it kind of guides you
towards better sleep hygiene and
healthier circadian rhythms without even
trying. At the end of the day,
technology isn't going anywhere. So, the
goal is to find tools that work with our
biology, not against it. And this is
definitely one of those devices. You
definitely want to hurry up and grab
yours today as they are extremely
popular and run out of stock really
fast. The link will be in the
description below alongside with a 15%

with a lot of the stupid vegans
about DHA, and I told them, you know,
you guys always talk about
polyunsaturated fats, but here's the
funny thing.
Every single study you see on DHA,
no matter what organ it is,
the more DHA you eat, the more healthy
you are, and no one can explain it.
Well, I just explained it to you. I told
you why it happens. Yes. And it turns
out these inflammatory, I should say
anti-inflammatory chemicals made from
the breakdown products of DHA protect
us. Why? Cuz they all create light to
actually help us adapt.
And that light inside us
actually stimulates us
um to get better. And this is this is
one of the things where cosmology and
and biology meets. The number one food
that diabetics need to eat is seafood
for the same reason I told you before
because the DHA is highly protective
when you have this ROS destruction going
on because of the short circuit in the
inner mitochondrial membrane, but the
key thing is, if you can give a diabetic
control of those four atoms, guess what happens?
happens?
They can slow down the ROS and RNS
signaling in the mitochondria. Yeah.
Then they can get electron tunneling
through two and three. As soon as that
happens, they become able
to replace the old engines. This is a
small section from the full podcast
conversation. So, if you want to find
