Damage to melanin in brain leads to mental disorders. Repair melanin damage with light stability inside the tropics
Dan Lawson: "When somebody says the biophysics for mental health, like what picture should they have in their mind?"
Dr. Jack Kruse: "It's a broad question. Everything about health is tied to those three metrics that you mentioned in the opening, which is light, water and magnetism. […] The neural system uses electricity, but the electricity in us starts first with light. And how to make that electricity that goes through our frontal lobes, and going to places that cause most of those mental illnesses is where […] the cornerstone of foundation of health begins, where good cognition, good consciousness begins.
"You can stave off all the mental illness, and that begins with melanin, which is a pigment that […] absorbs all frequencies of light. From that pathway that it absorbs the light when it gets hydrated by mitochondria, because our mitochondria make water, it decreases its electric capabilities. And where mental health is eliminated in terms of bad disease, is that current has to be about one trillionth of one ampere throughout the neurologic system.
"And this is say, go the other way, say places where it's absent or that one trillionth of ampere is gone, then you get low dopamine, you get things like food disorders and depression. You go the other way and say the melanin gets dehydrated because your mitochondrial functions stinks, then you wind up with a disease called schizophrenia, which is chaotic […] Why? because it's extremely high and it's not released in a circadian fashion. In other words, when the neural structures need it, you're not able to maintain that tension in that neural tract and you wind up with another disease. […]
"The light spectrum is really the key in understanding how this thing is put together and how melanin is the motherboard for, I guess you'd want to say the hardware, which is our brain. Then you begin to understand a new way that cognition is built and then mental wellness is built."
[…]
"The basis of cognition, consciousness and mental disorders is that DC current. And that DC current, turns out it has to be really honed with precision. It's quantum mechanical. What does that mean? That any degree that it's off means that you're signaling in your brains off. In other words, if you really want to get rid of that bipolar disorder, it's going to be really difficult to do in an environment that doesn't give you any light stability.
[…]
"Say you do have one of these disorders that you're interested in, I would submit to you that it makes far more sense for you to probably relocate for one, two, three or four years [to inside the tropics], leave the Zoloft at home, and see how nature treats you. Because if you start to notice that when you get light stability and you're able to rewire your brain, you're able to put alpha MSH, melanin, POMC working in your brain and those neural tracts come online, your friends and family may say, 'Hey, you're a different person when you go down there, and we're starting to notice this as a difference.'
[…]
"I can tell you, those with the severest mental illness, what I tell them when I see them, you're looking at three to five years inside the tropics. Why? That's how long it takes to rebuild the aromatic amino acids that make up all the neurotransmitters.
"But the number one defect that these people have is they have a melanin defect inside their brains. And the melanin is critical to developing the DC electric current. […] If you can't pull that electric charge, you don't have melanin. It tells you it's a photobioelectric story. It's not a pharmaceutical story."
