How Your Cells Work (the body’s laboratory)

The cells' warehouses

The most complex lab known is the human body. There are many cell processes going on simultaneously; some are known, some are speculated, and some we do not know that we do not know... Each cell has many buffers; these are storage for when it is needed. Magnesium is one of the many minerals that are stored within the cells. Garbage is also stored inside the cells; more about this later. Cells even share their mineral reserve storage with other cells running more critical processes, such as the heart muscles, which take priority over any of the 800+ other cell processes that use magnesium. In fact, the heart is the organ that contains the most amount of magnesium in all the body.

When a cell does not have what it needs, it simply goes dormant till the day that it gets what it needs. Just imagine what happens when your body is low on magnesium. Hundreds of types of processes go dormant in billions of cells. Joint repair cells may be the last ones to get magnesium. Cells could go on for days, months, or even years without running their processes. If the magnesium drops even further, the heart gets arrhythmia, a bit less magnesium, and the heart muscle dies due to a lack of magnesium, i.e., heath attract. BTW: The real reason for many, if not most, heart attacks is a lack of magnesium. The few MDs that know this often give the patient magnesium via IV to the patient experiencing a heart attack.

Magnesium and the heart

Calcium causes muscles to contract, magnesium relaxes the muscle; both are needed in a perfect balance for the muscles to work properly. Too much calcium and not enough magnesium, and you get muscle cramps. If that is the heart muscle, it is called a heart attack.

Potassium works as a pair with sodium; these two work to signal calcium and magnesium.

Keeping the warehouses full and clean

When you feel good, it is because most of the warehouses (cell buffers) have enough to run properly at the time, but this can change in a moment’s notice. In a really healthy body, there are full warehouses of everything, but even then, one can deplete them by some action like severe exercise, too cold, too hot, or even holding your breath, which uses up store resources.

Also, in a healthy body, the junk/garbage/toxins warehouses are empty. There are many ways to cause these warehouses to empty. There are many detoxing protocols. The best one is the one where you do not fill your warehouse with toxins and where your diet and lifestyle constantly keep them clean. No junk foods, No GMO foods, drink lots of high-quality water daily, exercise, eat only organic foods, etc. Magnesium is one of the minerals that is used to get the toxins out of the body.

Keeping the warehouses full is the key to long-term good health. When we eat, the warehouses get filled for later use. Not overstoring is also important, too much food makes you fat. When it comes to minerals, most minerals and vitamins will only be stored to the point the warehouse is full, the rest is excreted in the urine and feces. This is why it is ok to supplement them frequently. But, it is important to know which ones should not be overconsumed, such as vitamin D. Be sure to research well which supplements you take, especially the quality. Of the 60,000 or so supplement varieties on the market, most are not good for you.

Toxins and the false "viruses"

The exact opposite happens with toxins. Cells can also store toxins and other garbage, such as leftover pieces of the DNA, known as exosomes, which are often mistaken for viruses. In fact, lots of researchers are having second thoughts on what a virus is. It seems that often what is referred to as a virus is not a virus but leftover garbage called exosomes. Other researchers are starting to understand that viruses are not contagious and that no vaccine works. I am 100% against all vaccines. To learn more about this subject, I suggest reading: https://virusesarenotcontagious.com/exosomes-vs-viruses/ (archived: https://web.archive.org/web/20251012203325/https://virusesarenotcontagious.com/exosomes-vs-viruses/)

DNA is not the blueprint of life

What we were all taught is that the genome is the complete set of DNA instructions in a cell, that this set is the same in every cell of the body, and that written there is the blueprint of what you are. The first part of that sentence is a definition. The second is not true, and it is not a dissident who says so: the research says so.

As early as 2009 it was reported that there are major genetic differences between a person's blood cells and their tissue cells. The summary of that work said the findings “call into question one of the most basic assumptions of human genetics: that when it comes to DNA, every cell in the body is essentially identical to every other cell,” and that this “may undercut the rationale behind numerous large-scale genetic studies conducted over the last 15 years.”

It was not an isolated case. A July 2018 study titled “Genomic mosaicism in the developing and adult brain” puts it plainly: since the discovery of DNA the normal brain has been assumed to be composed of cells with identical genomes, and that remains the dominant view — but “this pervasive assumption is incorrect, as proven by increasing numbers of reports within the last 20 years.”

Take the practical point: if the genome is not the same from one cell to the next, then “your genes” are not a single fixed text that determines you. The blueprint is not a blueprint. And that fits everything this chapter has been saying: what governs the cell is the terrain — the minerals, the water, the warehouses full or empty, the toxins going in and out — and not a destiny written in advance. See also Chapters 12 and 25.

Two ways to mistake a name for an explanation

The first. In 2026 the headlines announced that artificial intelligence had designed “brand new viruses”, fully functional and able to replicate in the laboratory. Further down, the same article said two things: that what had been achieved was the design of whole genomes, and that “it would take another significant leap for AI to generate living organisms.” In other words: what was designed was a genome, not a living being, and the article admits it itself. The headline says one thing and the body of the text says another. Apply the five questions from Chapter 27 and you will find it is almost always so.

The second. A young man dies suddenly, and the post-mortem finds nothing: the heart looks normal. The result is given a name — “sudden adult death syndrome” — and that name is recorded as the cause of death. But look at how it is defined: it is diagnosed precisely when the cause cannot be explained at post-mortem. It is a name for the absence of an explanation. And it is a badly chosen one: a syndrome is a group of signs and symptoms occurring together, and here there were none; besides, death is a single event, not a group of signs.

What comes next is what matters for this chapter. Reaching the section on causes, the explanation offered is that these conditions are caused by changes, or mutations, in one or more of our genes. That is: the cause was not found, a name was given to the fact of not having found it, and the gap was filled with genes. But we have just seen that genes cannot carry that weight. There was a cause, or more likely a combination of causes, and neither the name nor the gene brings us any closer to it.

This section follows Dawn Lester's article “How the Mainstream Continues to Mislead” of 8 August 2026. Two honest qualifications. First: about that particular death she attributes no cause at all and expressly asks for discernment in the absence of information — so this book attributes none either. Second: she goes considerably further than this book and holds that neither DNA nor genes have ever been proven to exist as described. That is hers. What is above stands on the cited research, without needing to go that far.

Foods also carry toxins

The body requires lots more minerals to process some types of foods vs. other types of foods. Some vegetables, such as kale, contain vitamins but also toxins that need to be dealt with. The body must be able to deal with the toxins in the vegetables. This is why some foods, such as kale, must not be eaten too much or too often. I noticed a great joint health improvement the first time I eat kale, so I eat a bunch more and guess what? I got worse, this was due to my body (lab) not being able to deal with the excess toxin from the kale. So I did some research and found that kale has the K2 vitamin, so I decided to supplement K2 without having to eat kale. It seems that I am one of those victims of big pharma antibiotics which upset the delicate gut bacteria that produce K2 vitamin production.

Beware of supplements

Often a health problem can be alleviated and even cured with a supplement, but understanding how much and how often is of utmost importance. Too much of the good thing could end up being the root cause of another problem. For example, there is this new fad of taking large quantities of vitamin D. Too much vitamin D is causing many new heart attack cases; this is due to the fact that vitamin D requires magnesium. The extra vitamin D triggers cell processes that use magnesium; too much vitamin D causes a severe decrease in magnesium going to the heart, which leads to a heart attack. One cannot go without the other. This is quite common with supplements; one requires another for the correct processes to take place. Understanding the optimum quantities is a very complex science.

The gut bacteria

It takes many years of research to barely start getting an understanding of how our bodies work. Keep in mind that we are all different enough that what works for one does not work for another. There are many parameters, for example, K2 in Kale. You may need K2, so you decide to eat kale, but the toxin in the kale makes you sick. Even worse, you may not have the correct intestinal bacteria to process it. The same goes for endless foods that you may not have the bacteria to process them. K2 is a good example of a vitamin that is supposed to be produced in sufficient quantities in the gut by the bacteria, but it is often not produced due to the use of antibiotics. This is due to not enough of the correct bacteria in the gut. The root cause, having taken antibiotics that killed the K2 producing bacteria in the gut.

What puts the gut out of balance is excessive carbs/sugars, toxins, not enough fats, and/or having the bad luck of being born via cesarean and/or taking antibiotics.

Gut bacteria and other microorganisms are an extremely complex area of research that very few scientists are studying; very little is truly known. Scientists are slowly making progress in this area; expect lots of new information in the coming years. BTW: rnareset.com knows a secret about one gut bacteria; check out their product called RNA Drops.

On average, it takes two weeks of often eating a food type for the gut to adapt to it. If you have never eaten a certain food or have not eaten it in a long time, go slow... Give your gut time to adapt.

Fermented foods and leaky gut

What is well known is that eating fermented food is a must to make the gut heal and work correctly, especially those foods that you have a hard time eating or are allergic to, for example, beans; simply ferment some of them to build up your gut bacteria for that food.

Note that many people have leaky gut and do not know it. This is where unprocessed food gets by the intestine into the blood. The unprocessed food is a toxin in the blood. A way to heal the gut is a keto diet for several months.

There are many documented cases of feces (shit) transplants that have worked wonders. Big pharma does not want you to know that a healthy shit transplant cures many illnesses. You read correctly, CURES vs. endlessly feeding the big pharma monster with your money. Most do not need to go to the extreme of a feces transplant, most can improve and heal their gut via a change in diet that includes fermented foods.

The gut's garden

One of the main things you can do to heal (balance) the gut microorganisms (bacteria) is a keto diet. Imagine you have a vegetable garden, and it is all full of healthy weeds. You would have few vegetables to eat. The same garden could be made to have fewer weeds and lots of vegetables. Imagine that you have two types of workers in your gut, but you only feed one type and not the other; one type of worker will grow and demand more food (this is what happens with carbs and sugars), and the other type of worker is starving, dying, and reducing in numbers. In this very common scenario, the workers processing sugars will fill the fat cells while the other workers that are supposed to be producing vitamins are not producing much. Now imagine one day you go in and kill a whole type of worker with an antibiotic. Guess what happens with the other types of workers? They take over; now you only have one type of worker. Your gut is out of balance in a very bad way; you must restore it in order to have good health. Restoring is done in part by introducing lots of fermented foods. BTW: There are thousands of types of bacteria in the gut with their own DNA. In fact, most cells in a body are found in the gut. Scientists are still discussing how many cells a body is made of, but all have agreed there are many more bacteria cells than human cells in the body. Therefore, it goes without saying that the gut bacteria are extremely important; “gut bacteria are what produces the food for the human cells.” The food you eat is not food for you, it is food for your gut bacteria, which in turn produces food for your human cells.

How to get food to be processed better

Even anger and fear can totally upset the lab (gut processes). Lots of things can make a batch of food be poorly processed. For example, drinking any liquid with the food you are eating reduces the process efficiency of the food being processed. The more liquid, the colder the liquid, the worse, less efficient the process will be processed. Sometimes to the point that it endangers life, for example, when it allows harmful bacteria to get past the stomach due to low levels of acid. Solution, never drink any liquid with the food you eat, with some minor exceptions such as a bit of wine. Drink plenty of water 15-30 minutes before every meal to be hydrated and not feel the urge to drink.

Three are ways to increase the stomach acid. Iodine is one. A spoon of apple cider in the water before a meal is another way. The older and/or more sick you are, the more likely you are low on stomach acid. Low stomach acid leads to poor processing of all the food, which in turn produces even less stomach acid due to the lack of minerals extracted from the food. Break that cycle, and you will get better. You can also take HCl acid capsules a little before the meal with water.

Stomach acid (hydrochloric acid) is one of the most important things for health, and almost nobody talks about it. It does much more than "burn" the food: it separates the proteins so the body can use them, it releases the minerals from the food so they can be absorbed — iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc — and it is essential for absorbing vitamin B12. It is also the body's first line of defense: it kills the bacteria, the supposed "viruses," the fungi and the parasites that come in the food before they reach the intestine.

Here is the great deception: most people with heartburn or reflux believe they have too much acid, when almost always it is the opposite, they have very little. The valve that closes the stomach at the top only closes properly when there is enough acid; if acid is lacking, the valve stays loose and the little there is comes up and burns. A doctor named Jonathan Wright measured the acid of thousands of patients with reflux, and more than 90% were low on acid, not high. With age we produce less and less, so the older you are, the worse.

That is why antacids, and above all the pills that block acid (the so-called "proton pump inhibitors," like omeprazole or Prilosec), are so harmful: they switch off exactly what you need. They were approved to be taken for only a few weeks, but people take them for years. They have been linked to more infections and pneumonia, kidney problems, weak bones, a lack of magnesium and of B12, dementia and even stomach cancer. They also create dependence: on stopping them, the acid rebounds and burns more, so they are very hard to get off.

What to do instead? Raise your acid, do not lower it. Iodine helps produce it. A spoonful of raw apple cider vinegar in a little water before eating is the easiest thing there is. Sea salt provides the chlorine with which the body manufactures the acid, so a lack of salt also lowers your acid. Zinc also helps and, if needed, taking hydrochloric acid in capsules (Betaine HCl with pepsin) when eating meat and fat. And remove the foods that loosen the valve: sugar, coffee, chocolate, alcohol and too much fried fat.

Things that make a batch of food processed better are:

Drink water 15–30 minutes before every meal.

Never drink liquids while eating or immediately after a meal.

Preferably eat 15 minutes after exercise. Yeah, easier said than done. But you could make it a habit to only eat after exercising. -- Once you are really in the healthy path, you should be able to workout for hours before a meal, and your body should have enough storage in the warehouse (cell buffers). This is a good test of how healthy you really are. Even better, do you workout after a fast; be careful not everyone can do it, go slow.

Eat fruits by themselves, never with other foods, except papaya and pineapple, which are ideal to eat with heavy meals such as fats and proteins. Papaya and pineapple have digestive enzymes, and it is recommended to eat with every meal, especially if you suspect you are not processing meals correctly. There are also various enzyme supplements that can be quite helpful for some. Note: there are several types of enzymes, some are for carbohydrates and others for meat and fat.

Eat only one meal a day or all food within a window of a few hours. This will not only allow your digestive resources to build up for when you eat your next meal, but will also autophagy (kill and eat old cells), which in turn will make you YOUNGER.

Learn what oils to not eat and which one to eat. Basically, only cooking with coconut, avocado and/or animal fat; most other cooking oils are extremely toxic; in particular, the bad cooking oils cause the joints to be built by the cells with the wrong building blocks (oil). It takes 7 years of eating the correct oils to correct this.

The high-performance body

A peak-performing body (lab) can eat anything, anytime and in any amount. An ascended master can eat any poison in any amount and not get sick. BUT, almost no one has a peak performing body (lab) or are yet ascended masters. There are people who have trained their lab to process a certain food with no problem, even when eaten in large quantities, but this is probably not you. Some alcoholic and tobacco smokers are a good example, but this is not probably you… Some bodies produce quite well certain vitamins, hormones, etc. yet others do not. Those that do not, can be helped to get back in order by supplementing; supplements may only be needed for a period of time only until your body heals and gets up to speed.

For most, helping along processes with the addition of supplements will yield excellent results. The body is supposed to produce all sorts of compounds, such as vitamins and hormones, but quite often does not do it well enough; therefore, one can supplement them short-term and, in some cases, long-term. This is a very complex subject, one that requires a lot of understanding. For example, it is often a good idea to supplement various hormones, but long-term, the best is to get your lab (body) to produce them in the ideal correct proportions. This is primarily done with building block mineral supplements. https://www.rnareset.com is the only source of true ionic minerals available that I have found. Be careful, there are evil cabal-owned companies offering ionic minerals... I do not trust a well-known cabal company as a supplement provider. BTW: I have no business relationship whatsoever with rnareset.com I simply came across their company years ago and have had amazing results with their products. I also, agree with most of the logic Dr. Carolyn Dean provides about all their products. If you buy them, insist on a glass bottle, since all plastics are toxic and harmful to health.

Boosters vs. replacements

You can get a boost in many ways, but boosting supplements is often a bad idea, because it is forcing your body to perform when what it really needs is rest. There are many boosting types of supplements, such as coffee; others are replacements, such as ATP, which is what the mitochondria cells produce; btw, there are thousands of mitochondria in each cell. There are many other stimulants and replacements, such as ATP, that one can use for a boost. In some cases, it is good to use them; it is like putting oil on a rusty bolt; it gets things going. What one should never do is depend on them and ignore the solution to a problem. If what you need is rest and sleep, coffee and other stimulants is the wrong thing to do, but if your life depends on those stimulants for a few days, no big deal. Long-term, one must find synergy, or else you will wear out.

One replacement supplement that works quite well is Creatine Monohydrate; it fuels the muscles quite nicely. It has been in use for many years, and there are no known negative effects. Very low cost. There are several other supplements used by muscle builders that, in smaller proportions, will get you going fast to your end goal.

Other supplements that are of great benefit are aminoacids. Some amino acids are known to repair damaged organs like the heart muscle. Amino Acids are a way to bypass all the gut bacteria processing and put in the blood what it needs quickly. No breaking down the food is needed. So if your system is broken, this is a quick way to start feeling well but not a permanent fix.

There is lots of new knowledge being discovered about peptides; expect lots of new good news on peptides.

Vegetarian vs. carnivore

What works for one lab/body may be bad for another body. Lots of people have gone down the route of being vegetarian and claim great success. But others have almost died on a vegetarian diet; I was one of those, I got worse every day I was on a vegetarian diet, and mind you, I even went to the extreme of growing all my food to make sure it was organic. I did plenty of research on how to become a successful vegetarian and failed, simply because it was not the diet for me. IMHO, what happened to me is that I did not have the proper gut microorganisms (bacteria) to process a vegetarian diet, surely because of the extreme use of antibiotics, which nowadays is well known to kill the gut flora. On the other hand, when I am at my best is when I eat only meat. I can go on for months on only meat and feel great. This is due to more than one reason, among them genetics. Some blood types do better with one diet vs. another. Overall, everyone can do well on a keto diet, but there are lots of buts. Moving into a keto diet may be difficult for some. For example, a body that is already producing low enzymes and stomach acid is not going to do well on a keto diet at first; it may take time to adjust. Not having the proper bacteria to process vegetables is a problem with a vegetarian diet, this can be corrected with the proper fermented foods, of course I learned this later on…

Not all vegetables are alike; one thing is organic and another is a vegetable full of pesticides/toxins. A good organic vegetarian diet will cause the body to release stored toxins quickly, so keep this in mind. A low-quality organic vegetable is low in minerals; not all organic foods are rich in minerals; the quality of organic foods varies a lot. Doing a proper vegetarian diet is a very complex subject on its own; yes, it can be done, but if you do not do it correctly, long-term you can cause your body more harm than good. For example, there are essential proteins (you must eat them or get sick) that only a few vegetables have; most vegetarians make the mistake of not eating enough of certain foods and end up depleted of proteins and minerals, this is why many vegetarians are not healthy. If you decide to go the vegetarian route, do yourself a favor and get a real good education on it. On the other hand, a keto diet is a simple, easy diet. Keep in mind that we are not all made the same; choose wisely…

As you heal, a mixed diet may be the best option, keeping one diet for life is not a requirement, it is mainly to get you back to a point of good health. For example, a mostly vegetarian diet with some chicken and fish is a good complete diet that has most of the proteins and minerals needed. A keto diet with a little bit of fun here and there is ok too, which is what I do. Interesting to note that when I accidentally eat GMO foods, I get sick quite quickly. The problem is not wheat, for example; it is the GMO wheat that also contains large amounts of pesticides.

The healing crisis when changing diet

A drastic change in diet in an unhealthy body, be it vegetarian or keto, is going to produce the release of toxins. The amount of toxins in your lab (body) can vary a lot. The younger and healthier, no big deal. The older, sick, overweight, etc. lots of toxins may be released and fast. The more and faster toxins are released, the sicker you will feel, and the less you will want to continue on your diet change. In the case that it is not going well for you, it is best to simply move slowly into the new diet. Remember, anytime you give the cells what they need, they will get to work; part of the work is in cleaning up, in otherwords, expelling toxins and other garbage. These toxins and other garbage has to be taken out of the body by other processes; the organs and cells that process garbage can easily be overwhelmed and not be able to keep up with the demand, therefore you may feel sick. Headaches are quite common; feeling low energy, wanting to sleep more, etc. are often caused because the cleanup systems are overloaded. It is tricky to determine if the new diet is not for you, or is it that your system (lab) is overloaded? “Healing crisis” is a well-known condition where you feel sick, but in reality your body is healing, and soon you will feel better.

Moving to a keto diet can cause lots of carb/sugar cravings; there are ways to deal with this. I highly recommend Dr. Boz; look her up on Youtube. Although, with any recommendation, use your own discretion. The Doctor recommended the genocidal poison called the Covid vaccine, though she later regretted it and apologized.

The "shotgun" approach for the very ill

If you are one of those many that is totally depleted and sick, then going for a shotgun approach may be your best and only option, especially if you can financially afford it. Do all you can: detox, changes in diet, building block supplements, and other replacement supplements such as hormones, exercises, massages, saunas, etc. and even move house to one well away from where you currently live I recommend loading up on all the boosters you can get first before starting on major diet changes; these will make you feel good, but do not be fooled, you have a long way to go in healing yourself. Boosters are just that booster, a temporary solution, not a long-term fix, which is what you really should be after.

If finances are not available for supplements, start with a change in attitude, which is free; do any and all you can do, from diet change to exercise, meditation, breathing exercises, falun-dafa exercises, fasting, drinking more water, etc. There is a saying that God never gives anyone a challenge they cannot overcome. I strongly believe this to be true.

In short

Our labs (bodies) are extremely complex; therefore, it takes a lot of studying, experimenting, and research to achieve the level of success you seek. Medbeds may be available someday. For now, the more you learn and put into practice, the better you will be and feel NOW!

Some just want to get by without pain, others want to be able to do more, others want to be athletes, yet others want to be younger. Which one are you? What are your short-term goals? Long-term? Answers to these questions will help you set a plan and stick to it.

Excellent health is about lifestyle changes, not just diet. You will need to say no thank you to many food offers.

Remove all negative people from your life; associate only with positive people.
