It's Official: Ditching The SATs Was A Big Mistake

Gee, what could go wrong?  May I say something?  Our pre colledge education is generally insufficient in terms of optimizing the top ten percent.  It mostlymakes do to broadly inform the other ninety percent and then ships of the best third to university and good luck there.  What I am saying is that the top ten percent is often poorly prepared as well.  how is this going to work out.

SAT was a competition that drove a rapid uptake of core knowledge which was otherwise easily missed.   You need to be well grounded in elementary mathematics to do calculus.  You need competant reading skills which should easily induce excellent writing skills.

all of which means doing way more than the curricullum demands.  It certainly means enjoying books and doing math puzzles to sharpen up.  No one ever got a 1400 SAT level without a massive reading schedule.  You have to feed the monkey.

It's Official: Ditching The SATs Was A Big Mistake

Saturday, Dec 13, 2025 - 07:10 PM


Authored by Jonathan Miltimore via The Washington Examiner,

In early 2020, the University of California set the tone for the rest of the country when its regents voted to drop SAT and ACT admissions requirements through 2024. That decision, initially framed as a pandemic necessity, quickly reshaped admissions nationwide. By late 2022, roughly 1,750 schools, or about 80 percent of U.S. universities, had adopted test-optional policies, according to Forbes.

“It’s a sea change in terms of how admissions decisions are being made,” Robert Schaeffer, of the National Center for Fair and Open Testing, told NBC News.

“The pandemic created a natural experiment.”


Five years later, the results of this “natural experiment” are in. A report released by UC San Diego in November tells the story.

“Over the past five years, UC San Diego has experienced a steep decline in the academic preparation of its entering first-year students—particularly in mathematics, but also in writing and language skills,” a new university report reads.

“This trend poses serious challenges both to student success and to the university’s instructional mission.”

Those words might sound ominous, but they don’t do justice to just how bad the slide has been.



Roughly 1 in 8 UCSD freshmen are working with math skills that don’t clear the high school bar - a 30-fold jump since 2020.

It gets worse, however.

The report concluded that 70 percent of those students fall below middle school levels.

To give you an idea of what we’re talking about, a full quarter of students failed to solve the following equation: 7 + 2 = [ ] + 6.

This means that my 9-year-old son, who tests high in math, is likely more equipped mathematically than many of these college students. I say this not as a point of pride, but to emphasize the disservice done to students thrust into (very pricey) college courses.

It’s not just math, however.

The report found that 40 percent of students deficient in arithmetic also couldn’t write (or, in the euphemistic language of the report, “required remedial writing instruction”).

The report was unflinching in its assessment.

“Admitting large numbers of students who are profoundly underprepared [for college] risks harming the very students we hope to support, by setting them up for failure,” it declares.

UC San Diego should be commended for coming forward to report a phenomenon that is undoubtedly true at universities across the country.

Many at the time warned that ditching standardized tests was a bad idea. Research shows that high school GPAs don’t tell you much about how students perform once they get to campus. Standardized test results, however, do.

So, why did universities engage in this “natural experiment”?

There is no single answer, but politics, ideology, and crass incentives all played a role.

Let’s start with politics.

As David Leonhardt pointed out in the New York Times, universities are run by progressives, and “standardized tests have become especially unpopular among political progressives.”

Some progressives say standardized tests cause too much stress.

Others say they’re biased to explain why men score higher, on average, than women and why some racial groups perform better than others.

Ideology, a kissing cousin of politics, also plays a role. The fact that universities ditched standardized testing during the peak of the DEI craze is not a coincidence. As Leonhardt noted in the New York Times, the hostility to standardized tests is based largely “on the theory that they hurt diversity.”

This is a kooky claim for various reasons, not least because it is rooted in bigotry. But there was also a method to the madness. Abandoning standardized tests, which are rooted in objectivity, gave universities the ability to admit students on their terms. By making admission more subjective, universities were giving themselves cover for their own unlawful admissions policies.

Finally, there’s the financial incentive.

It’s no secret that demand for higher education is plummeting. (This trend is partly driven by pure demographics, but high tuition and the diminishing value of college degrees also play a role.)

As a result, universities are confronting an “enrollment cliff.” While declining numbers of new students would have posed a challenge regardless, the problem was worsened by pandemic-era learning losses caused by widespread high school closures. Removing standardized tests was a (kind of) solution to this problem. If not enough students are qualified to attend university, remove the qualifications.

In the end, ditching standardized tests will be remembered as a chapter in the broader story of the decline of U.S. universities. The decision didn’t cause the fall, but it accelerated a trend toward lower academic standards—one that harmed not just the reputation of universities, but also students who were admitted for all the wrong reasons.

Sadly, they will be left paying the price.

Regenerative Farming Just Went Mainstream; Here's Why It Matters

sometimes a twenty year war is just over.  We won and yes, if you follow my blog, it is we and every farmer out there who got started into the approach.  

Or traditional agricultural meme was deeply constrained by lack of power.  Industrial ag changed that but was imperfect.  Regenerative ag happens to be biologically sustainable top to bottom.  The mere idea that making cattle move to crush the lower portion of the grass for worm feed every few hours will double your stocking rate is a global revolution that will fully restore all soils and create usuable new soils.  The boreal forest can become global silvaculture ideal for cattle husbandry.

Recall those glorious alpine pastures in switzertland?  those were once barren pine forests.  that is what 12,000,000 square kilometers of boreal forest can look like.  While filling all lakes with salmon and creeks with beavers.

Regenerative Farming Just Went Mainstream; Here's Why It Matters

Saturday, Dec 13, 2025 - 06:00 PM

Authored by Mollie Englehart via The Epoch Times,

My phone started dinging almost all at once.

Text messages, links, alerts—people were telling me that Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins was about to make a major announcement on Dec. 10 related to regenerative agriculture. A YouTube link was circulating. The livestream was about to begin. There was a sense of anticipation in the air.

When the video came on, Rollins stood alongside Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and others. What stood out immediately was not the funding amount, but the language: soil health, human health, nutrient density, the microbiome, and microbiology. The living systems beneath our feet and within our bodies were finally being discussed as part of one connected reality.

That language matters.

Then the announcement itself came: $700 million allocated toward regenerative agriculture.

On paper, that sounds significant. In reality, when spread across acreage that is already regenerative, it comes out to roughly $16 per acre. My phone began lighting up again—this time with frustration and disappointment. Farmers were doing the math. Many compared it to the $12 billion recently allocated to soybean farmers to ease losses from China no longer buying at previous levels. The imbalance felt familiar.

I felt that disappointment myself. But I stopped.

Because the truth is, the government is not going to save us. It never was.

What matters is what was said on stage—out loud, at the highest levels of agricultural leadership. Years of pushing, educating, farming, and speaking have forced the mainstream to acknowledge that regenerative agriculture exists and that what many of us have been saying for years is not fringe, not experimental, and not untested. It is rooted in biological reality.

Not long ago, when regenerative agriculture was barely even a term, a simple Google search would return little more than my brother Ryland Engelhart’s small website and the work of Allan Savory. That was essentially it. Today, regenerative agriculture is discussed in policy rooms, media, and public health conversations. That shift did not happen by accident.

As someone who has spent years pounding the pavement on small stages, podcasts, newspaper articles, Instagram posts, and anywhere else someone might listen, hearing words that could have come straight from my own mouth—or from the mouths of so many friends—spoken by the Secretary of Agriculture was a real turning point.

It was not only agricultural language that shifted.

In the same period, advisers for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention held hearings on the hepatitis B vaccine and made recommendations to reconsider whether it should be universally mandatory in infancy. Hepatitis B is primarily transmitted through blood and bodily fluids, including sexual contact and needle exposure. These modes of transmission do not logically apply to newborn infants.

For decades, the trend has moved in only one direction, with more interventions introduced earlier and with less public debate. Seeing even one policy questioned openly represents a meaningful shift. It does not mean the system is fixed, but it does suggest that logic and discussion are beginning to reenter conversations where they have long been absent.

For years, soft language has been used to control public discourse. Conversations about vaccine efficacy, soil degradation, chemical agriculture, and the microbiome were not debated openly. They were often shut down through social pressure and professional risk.

That grip appears to be loosening.

Government leaders are now speaking openly about the microbiome, soil microbiology, and nutrient density. There is growing acknowledgment that chronic disease, metabolic dysfunction, and declining fertility do not exist in isolation from how our food is grown. Regenerative agriculture, once dismissed as niche, is now part of national policy discussions.

Is this the sweeping reform some of us want? No.

Is it enough? No.

But it is movement. And movement matters.

I also want to acknowledge someone who has been pushing this work forward long before it was widely accepted. My brother, Ryland Engelhart, started Kiss the Ground as a small nonprofit in his garage at a time when regenerative agriculture was rarely discussed outside of farming circles. Through years of commitment, education, and personal sacrifice, he helped bring this conversation into the mainstream.

He has since stepped away from Kiss the Ground and is now focused on a new advocacy effort called American Regeneration, continuing his work to advance soil health, regenerative farming, and national policy conversations around land stewardship.

Today, Kiss the Ground has produced two documentaries—“Kiss the Ground” and “Common Ground”—available on Amazon Prime, introducing millions of people to the realities of soil regeneration and land stewardship. That progress did not happen because institutions embraced the message early. It happened because people refused to stop pushing.

The government still has a long way to go. I do not trust it to lead this transformation on its own, and neither should farmers, parents, or patients. Pressure matters. Accountability matters. Demanding more matters.

But so does recognizing when something has shifted.

Once certain truths are spoken publicly, they cannot be taken back. The connection between soil health and human health has been named. The role of microbiology in food and medicine has been acknowledged. Regenerative agriculture cannot be pushed back into obscurity once it has entered the national conversation.

We are not winning through sweeping victories. We are winning incrementally. And for those of us who have been pushing uphill for years, that matters.

Incremental wins are still wins. And the direction of the wind has finally changed.

What Just Emerged in a New Scan of Lake Superior Will Shock Everyone!

I have waited decades for all this to be figured out.  Lake Superior is one of hte most unusual geological regions on Earth.  I do not think it is a craton or massive impact zone, but that may be part of the genesis.  What we have is a super volcano already a billin years extinct.  The collapse caldera is a hundred miles across and buried miles deep.

all this supports the huge mineral wealth throughout.  Starting with the native copper mines that supported the European Bronze age from efore 2500 BC through 1159 BC and anchored a global maritime trade empire.

All that strange geology can now be fitted together and so far, it is unlike anything else on earth so far.  But then sudbury is an ancient meteorite craton produced deep sourced nickel ores and it is all part of this.

What Just Emerged in a New Scan of Lake Superior Will Shock Everyone!

The surface of Lake Superior has always projected a sense of permanence, a cold and vast calm that resists easy interpretation. Stretching roughly three hundred fifty miles in length, or about five hundred sixty kilometers, and plunging to depths exceeding one thousand three hundred thirty feet, or about four hundred six meters, it has long been regarded as a geographic constant rather than an active geological question. Yet recent scan data gathered beneath those dark waters has quietly unsettled that assumption. What lies below the lakebed is no longer a matter of conjecture or folklore but a structural reality that forces a reexamination of what Lake Superior actually represents in the deep history of the North American continent. What if the largest freshwater lake by surface area in the world is not merely a basin carved by ice, but the scar left behind by something far more violent? What if the lake itself is not the beginning of the story, but the aftermath? 

New scans of Lake Superior reveal a massive, previously unknown structure beneath the surface. This subsurface mapping initiative uncovered a circular feature of immense scale, challenging long-held assumptions about the lake's geological history. Explore the implications of this surprising discovery for the region's past and present.

3I/ATLAS Still Shows an Anti-Tail, as it Gets Closer to Earth

Let us beg a question or two.  3I/ATLAS has a persistent antotail which appears to be physical.  It is not going away either.  At the same time ,the closest approach to the sun is inside the orbit of Mars - just.

so just why does none of our inner planets and smaller objects in the Astetroid belt have such an antitail.  And just what does the sun have to do with any and all apparent outgassing shown by comets?  Our scientific universe is full of untestible ideas accepted only because their creators are dead and are not about to call for caution.

everything we know about Solar comets argue for Newtonian assembages drawing in an unconsolidated mass of frozen volitiles in particular.  It is completely reaonable that this object will be accompanied by a cloud of unconsolidated material and that incresasing heat as the sun is approached will alter this cloud.  3I/Atlas is not close enough for any of this.  Yet i do posit that a comet running close enough to break up will also have a massive breakdown of hydrocarbons producing elemental carbon as we observe with the comet impactor of 12900 BP or the Pleistocene nonconformity.

And what is non gravitatinal acceleration?  goodbye Newton and hello my cloud cosmology.  My quick theory fix is to allow intelligent adjustment of contained DARK MATTER to the outside of the object itself in whole or in part, sufficient to adjust the kinetic enegy of the object and also able to entrain particles ahead of the object.

As I gave already posted, this capability would allow interstellar transits outside of the solar globe at velocities approaching a meaningful fraction of lightspeed.  Again, bigger is better and mayalso allow terraforming of Venus if big enough.

Again all this is plausible if your mind can accept that our material experience is a wave guide like device for DARK MATTER which i suspect consists of neutron pairs which are inherently neutral.  Trust me when i say this works and represents a lifetime working with conforming evidence, any piece of which looks crazy time.

As of today, December 14, 2025, the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS is at a distance of about 270.5 million kilometers from Earth. Its images are delayed by a quarter of an hour, as it takes light from 3I/ATLAS 15 minutes to reach us. On December 19, 2025, 3I/ATLAS will get closest to Earth at a perigee distance of 269.9097 (+/-0.0060) million kilometers.

The latest image of 3I/ATLAS was taken by Teerasak Thaluang on December 13, 2025 at 21:30:26 UTC with a 0.26-meter telescope in Rayong, Thailand (as reported here). The rotational-gradient brightness map shows a prominent anti-tail, uncommon for comets, pointing in the direction of the Sun.

Whereas an anti-tail had been seen for solar system comets as a temporary perspective effect when the Earth crossed the comets’ orbital plane, this is clearly not the case with 3I/ATLAS. The anti-tail was apparent in the first Hubble Space Telescope image, taken on July 21, 2025, when 3I/ATLAS was approaching the Sun from a geocentric distance of 2.98 times the Earth-Sun separation (AU) — as reported here and analyzed here, and was also apparent in the second Hubble image taken on November 30, 2025, when 3I/ATLAS was receding away from the Sun at a distance of 1.91 AU from Earth — as reported here. The anti-tail was also apparent in thousands of images taken in between these dates.

The anti-tail of 3I/ATLAS is therefore not a perspective effect. It is a real physical jet, with a glow extending from 3I/ATLAS towards the Sun. Its nature is a mystery because gas and micrometer-dust particles are expected to be pushed away from the Sun by solar radiation pressure and the solar wind, creating the appearance of a tail — as routinely seen in solar-system comets. There was no mention of this mystery at the NASA press conference about 3I/ATLAS on November 19, 2025 (accessible here).

To explain the physics of the anti-tail of 3I/ATLAS, I have written three scientific papers. The first two of these peer-reviewed papers, co-authored with Eric Keto (accessible here and here), associate the anti-tail with scattering of sunlight by fragments of ice shed from the sun-facing side of 3I/ATLAS. These tiny ice particles evaporate before they get pushed back significantly by the solar radiation pressure and so they never appear as a conventional cometary tail. The third (single-authored) paper, published on December 8, 2025 here, associates the anti-tail with a swarm of objects that lag behind 3I/ATLAS because of its non-gravitational acceleration away from the Sun (as reported by JPL Horizons here). Analysis of the latest Hubble image could potentially favor one of these explanations.

By recognizing anomalies, we can learn something new. By ignoring them, we remain ignorant.

3I/ATLAS will reach its closest point to the Sun around Oct. 30, 2025, at a distance of about 1.4 au (130 million miles, or 210 million kilometers) — just inside the orbit of Mars. The interstellar comet's size and physical properties are being investigated by astronomers around the world.

The 80-Million-Year-Old Cure: How Ancient Microbes Restore Eden

a realy interesting meme. We do comms through our own microbe biome rather naturally and this permits access to DNA changes across the global biome. Our natural inclination is to see separation and uniqueness when that could be completely wrong.

we are just learning to plausibly support it all.  and a virus remains a hypothesis with scant physical expression.

Exactly how diverse is our external biome?

The 80-Million-Year-Old Cure: How Ancient Microbes Restore Eden

How Fermented Foods Carry Tomorrow's Medicine from Yesterday's World

Sayer Ji

Dec 13

Modern humans have severed their connection to deep biological time through C-sections, antibiotics, and sterile environments, creating a generation hosting overgrowth of opportunistic bacteria instead of ancestral allies

Raw honey contains 80-million-year-old Lactobacillus strains that maintain biological memory across geological time spans, offering solutions to modern health challenges¹

The human holobiont requires microbial partners for full functionality, with 99% of our genetic material belonging to our microbiome—without these partners, we cannot access our full biological potential²

Traditional fermented foods act as temporal bridges, carrying coherent microbial communities that can restore disrupted microbiomes and reconnect us to our evolutionary heritage³

There’s a spoonful of raw honey sitting before you. What you’re about to taste contains something that should be impossible: living bacteria that have been reproducing, unchanged, for 80 million years. These ancient Lactobacillus kunkeei strains were already old when the last dinosaurs walked the Earth⁴. They’ve survived ice ages, mass extinctions, and the rise of mammals, carrying within their tiny cellular bodies a form of biological memory that modern science is only beginning to understand.

As I explored in “How Raw Honey Could Save Your Microbiome (and Travel Back In Time)”, these microbial time travelers offer us a direct connection to our evolutionary past and a means to recover and cultivate into perpetuity the immense vitality and healing potential encoded within it.

This is where our story begins—not with mystical claims, but with a scientific mystery that opens into something far more profound than we imagined. How do these microbes maintain their identity across such vast stretches of time? And more mysteriously, why does consuming them seem to activate healing potentials in our own bodies that feel less like medicine and more like... remembering?

The etymology of “remember” literally means “bring back (re-) into bodily being (-member),” and consuming foods with an ancient microbiome intact restores the body to an Edenic past still recoverable in modern times. This linguistic truth points to something our ancestors understood intuitively: memory isn’t just mental—it’s cellular, microbial, visceral.

The Great Severance: How We Lost Our Microbial Souls

The answer to these mysteries becomes even more urgent when we consider what we’ve lost. Walk through any modern maternity ward, and you’ll witness a profound biological tragedy unfolding with each cesarean birth. The average modern human is born through a sterile surgical procedure, immediately washed with antimicrobial soaps, and raised in environments scrubbed clean of the infinitely complex and highly intelligent and capable microbial diversity that shaped our evolution.

By the time we reach adulthood, we’re hosting methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Candida overgrowths, and other opportunistic invaders instead of the ancient bacterial allies that should rightfully inhabit our bodies⁵. We’ve traded our biological birthright for the illusion of cleanliness, and the cost is becoming terrifyingly clear in epidemic rates of autism, allergies, autoimmune conditions, and mental illness - and the rapid decline in our species’ health, especially our children, and which is only now being reversed with the rise of movements like MAHA and MEHA around the world.

To understand the magnitude of what’s at stake, we need to grasp a revolutionary truth that’s overturning our basic concept of human identity. You are not an individual. You are a holobiont—a superorganism composed of human cells and microbial cells in roughly equal numbers⁶. In fact, genetically speaking, you are only about 1% human. The other 99% of the genetic material you carry belongs to the bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microorganisms that call your body home⁷. Without these “germs” and “pests,” within hours if not minutes, you would cease to exist.

As I detailed in “How the Microbiome Undermines the Ego, Vaccine Policy, and Patriarchy”, this revelation fundamentally challenges our notions of individual identity and even the patriarchal assumptions about biological inheritance.

This isn’t a metaphor or an exaggeration. It’s biological fact. And it means that without your full complement of microbial partners, you literally cannot be fully human. Consider what we now know about the holobiont’s capabilities:

Neurotransmitter Production: Up to 95% of your body’s serotonin is produced by gut bacteria⁸. Without the right microbes, you cannot experience the full spectrum of human emotion.

Immune Education: Your immune system learns through early microbial exposure what to defend against and destroy and what to tolerate⁹. Without proper teachers, it remains ignorant and reactive.

Nutrient Synthesis: B vitamins, vitamin K, and other essential nutrients are produced by your microbial partners - even vitamin C¹⁰. Without them, you’re nutritionally incomplete regardless of diet.

Genetic Expression: Your microbiome profoundly influences the expression of your own genes, effectively determining which version of yourself gets expressed¹¹.

The Hidden History of Humanity’s Microbial Partners

To truly appreciate what we’ve lost, we need to understand the depth of our co-evolutionary relationship with microbes. For over 99.9% of human history, every baby was born vaginally, immediately coated with mother’s protective microbiome. Every child played in dirt, ate fermented foods, and lived in intimate contact with animals and nature. Every adult hosted a diverse ecosystem of thousands of microbial species, each contributing unique capabilities to the human holobiont.

These weren’t random associations. Over millions of years, we co-evolved specific partnerships:

Lactobacillus species that perfectly match the pH of the human vagina, creating an acidic environment hostile to pathogens while nurturing beneficial species

Bifidobacteria that specifically digest human milk oligosaccharides—sugars in breast milk that humans can’t digest but that feed these crucial infant microbes

Bacteroides that help us extract nutrients from plant fibers our own enzymes can’t touch

Psychobiotic strains that produce neurotransmitters and influence our mood and cognition

Each of these relationships represents millions of years of co-evolutionary (or, use ‘co-designed,’ if you are a Creationist) fine-tuning. When we sever these connections through C-sections, formula feeding, antibiotics, and sterile living, we’re not just losing a few bacteria. We’re losing evolutionary/intelligently designed partnerships that define our humanity.

The Physics of Biological Memory

To understand what’s really happening when we eat temporally deep foods—and why they matter more than ever in our sterilized age—we need to explore how biological information persists across time. In “Bridging Energy and Information: Codality in an Aetheric Framework”, I explored with my father Dr. Sungchul Ji how information and causation represent two complementary modes of interaction in nature, with codality denoting information-mediated correlations between objects via an informational field.

This isn’t just abstract physics. It has profound implications for how we understand food, health, and our connection to deep time. DNA isn’t merely a storage system for genetic information. Research by Dr. Konstantin Meyl and others suggests it also functions as an antenna system, capable of transmitting and receiving biological information¹². When DNA unzips during replication, it creates electromagnetic vortexes—little whirlpools that may generate waves carrying the information of life itself.

But how does this explain the persistence of biological memory across millions of years? The answer may lie in what physicists call phase conjugation—a phenomenon where waves can create “time-reversed” mirrors that restore order from chaos. When you consume that spoonful of honey containing ancient Lactobacillus strains, you’re not just introducing bacteria. You’re creating conditions for phase conjugate healing, where the ancient order encoded in these microbes can help restore your own disrupted biological patterns.

The Mechanism of Microbial Time Travel

This mechanism helps explain the “microbial time travel” phenomenon I described in my honey article. When those 80-million-year-old Lactobacillus enter your gut, several remarkable things happen:

1. Immediate Recognition: Despite millions of years of separation, your cells recognize these ancient allies. Research shows beneficial bacteria can influence gene expression in human intestinal cells within hours of colonization¹³.

2. Chemical Conversation: The bacteria begin producing metabolites—short-chain fatty acids, vitamins, neurotransmitters—that your cells have evolved to expect and utilize.

3. Genetic Dialogue: Through horizontal gene transfer, microRNAs, and extracellular vesicles, the bacteria share genetic information with your cells and other microbes¹⁴.

4. Field Effects: If Meyl’s research is correct, the bacteria’s DNA creates scalar field patterns that resonate with your own DNA, facilitating information transfer beyond mere chemistry. In fact, certain bacteria DNA and scalar field effects generated by them may pull unique energy and information out of the the morphogenetic field (aether), with profound implications to human health, consciousness, and well-being.

5. Ecological Restoration: The ancient bacteria begin rebuilding ecological niches in your gut, creating conditions that favor other beneficial species while inhibiting pathogens.

This isn’t just colonization—it’s biological remembering at the deepest level.

The Inter-Kingdom Symphony

As explored in “Leonardo da Vinci & The New Biology,” we now understand that organisms communicate across kingdom boundaries through microRNAs—small RNA molecules that can survive digestion and directly regulate gene expression in other species¹⁵. This revelation completely transforms our understanding of nutrition.

When you eat a tomato, you’re not just consuming lycopene and vitamin C. You’re downloading tomato microRNAs that can:

Regulate inflammation pathways in your cells

Influence your antioxidant production

Modify your cellular stress responses

Even affect your gene expression patterns for hours or days

This inter-kingdom communication becomes even more profound when we consider fermented foods. Each ferment contains not just bacteria but an entire ecosystem producing bioactive compounds:

Neurotransmitters: GABA, serotonin, dopamine produced by specific bacterial strains

Vitamins: B12, K2, and others synthesized by microbial communities

Regulatory RNAs: Complex networks of genetic regulators from multiple species

Bioactive Peptides: Protein fragments with hormone-like effects

Organic Acids: Compounds that modulate pH and cellular metabolism

A single spoonful of authentic sauerkraut contains more biological information than any pharmaceutical drug ever created.

Royal Jelly: Nature’s Epigenetic Time Machine

To truly grasp biological time manipulation, consider royal jelly—that mysterious substance that transforms an ordinary bee larva destined to live six weeks into a queen who can live six years. As I detailed in “The Sacred Biology of Royal Jelly”, this isn’t just nutrition—it’s biological alchemy.

Royal jelly works primarily through epigenetic mechanisms. The protein royalactin activates signaling pathways that alter gene expression patterns throughout the developing bee¹⁶. What’s remarkable is that these same pathways exist in humans. When human cells are exposed to royal jelly, researchers have documented:

Telomerase Activation: The enzyme that rebuilds chromosome caps, essentially reversing cellular aging

Stem Cell Proliferation: Increased production and activity of regenerative cells

Mitochondrial Biogenesis: Creation of new cellular power plants

Epigenetic Reprogramming: Reversal of age-related gene methylation patterns

But beyond these molecular mechanisms lies a deeper truth. Royal jelly represents concentrated biological time—the queen-making potential that exists in every female bee larva, waiting to be activated. When we consume royal jelly, we’re accessing this same potential for transformation encoded in our own cells.

The Meristem Principle: Life’s Immortality Algorithm

In “The Immortal Fractal: How Meristem Cells Reveal Life’s Scalar Blueprint”, I explored how plant meristem cells maintain perpetual embryonic potential—they can divide endlessly without aging. This same principle appears to operate in certain microbial communities, especially those preserved in traditional ferments.

Consider a sourdough starter maintained for centuries. Unlike isolated laboratory cultures that gradually accumulate mutations and lose vitality, these traditional cultures maintain remarkable stability. Why? Because they’re not just collections of microbes—they’re coherent biological systems exhibiting collective intelligence.

In a healthy ferment:

Multiple species create metabolic networks more stable than any single organism

Bacteriocins and other compounds maintain ecological balance

Horizontal gene transfer allows rapid adaptation without losing core identity

The community exhibits emergent properties no single species possesses

When you maintain a sourdough starter or kefir culture, you’re not just keeping bacteria alive—you’re stewarding a practically immortal biological system that exhibits the same perpetual renewal as plant meristems.

The Sacred Geometry of Fermentation

The connection between fermentation and sacred geometry isn’t metaphorical. Microbial colonies often organize themselves into precise geometric patterns—hexagons, spirals, fractals—that maximize efficiency and communication. These patterns mirror those found throughout nature:

The hexagonal cells of honeycomb

The spiral of a nautilus shell

The branching patterns of blood vessels

The golden ratio in flower petals

As I explored in “The Immortal Fractal,” these patterns aren’t arbitrary. They represent optimal solutions to biological challenges, refined over billions of years. When we consume fermented foods, we’re ingesting these patterns—not just physically, but informationally.

The Sacred Technology of Prayer Hands

As I explored in “Your Body’s Hidden Technology: The Scalar Field Between Your Hands”, even simple practices like bringing your palms together in prayer position may create bioelectric conditions that support healing and coherence. This becomes even more relevant when we understand the electromagnetic nature of our microbial partners.

Your body generates multiple electromagnetic fields:

The heart’s field extends several feet beyond the body

The brain produces complex wave patterns

Every cell maintains an electrical potential

Your microbiome collectively generates its own field signatures

When you create coherent bioelectric states through meditation, prayer, or other practices, you’re not just affecting your own cells. You’re creating an electromagnetic environment that:

Supports beneficial microbes that thrive in coherent fields

Inhibits pathogens that prefer chaotic electromagnetic environments

Facilitates communication between your cells and your microbiome

May enhance the scalar field effects that coordinate biological systems

The most advanced healing technology on Earth costs nothing, requires no training, and you've been carrying it since birth. You've probably used it without knowing what it does.

The Hygiene Hypothesis Validated: The True Cost of Sterility

The “hygiene hypothesis” has evolved into the “old friends hypothesis”—the recognition that humans co-evolved with certain microorganisms essential for proper development¹⁷. The evidence is now overwhelming:

Children raised on farms have 50% lower rates of asthma and allergies¹⁸

Amish children, living in close contact with animals and soil, have virtually no autism¹⁹

Each course of antibiotics in infancy increases risk of obesity, diabetes, and inflammatory bowel disease²⁰

C-section birth correlates with 20% higher risk of asthma, 40% higher risk of immune disorders²¹

Without microbial teachers, our immune systems remain uneducated, unable to distinguish friend from foe. The result is an immune system that either overreacts (allergies, autoimmune conditions) or underreacts (chronic infections, cancer).

But the cost goes beyond physical health. The gut-brain axis means our mental health depends on our microbiome:

Depression correlates with reduced microbial diversity²²

Anxiety disorders show consistent microbiome disruptions²³

Autism spectrum disorders involve significant gut dysbiosis²⁴

Even personality traits correlate with microbiome composition²⁵

We haven’t just sanitized our environment—we’ve sanitized our souls.

Water: The Universal Solvent of Time

Water deserves special attention in our exploration of biological time. Not all water is created equal. Gerald Pollack’s research on “fourth phase” or “exclusion zone” water reveals that water in biological systems forms highly ordered structures that can store and transmit information²⁶.

Spring water that has percolated through mineral-rich geological formations for thousands of years carries:

Mineral matrices that support specific microbial communities

Electromagnetic signatures from its underground journey

Structural patterns that influence how it interacts with living systems

Microbial ecosystems adapted to that specific water source

Traditional peoples didn’t just prefer certain springs for their taste. They recognized that different waters carried different healing properties—what we now understand as distinct microbial communities and mineral profiles that support different aspects of health.

Modern water treatment destroys these properties:

Chlorination kills beneficial microbes while selecting for resistant pathogens

High-pressure pumping destroys water’s structural organization

Straight pipes eliminate the vortexing motion that naturally structures water

Fluoridation may interfere with microbial communication systems

The result is “dead” water that cannot properly support the microbial ecosystems we need to thrive.

The Path of Restoration: Practical Protocols

Understanding these principles transforms how we approach healing. We’re not trying to add health to a broken system—we’re removing obstacles to our natural state of biological coherence. Here’s an expanded protocol for rebuilding your connections to deep biological time:

Phase 1: Cessation and Recognition (Weeks 1-4)

Stop the Assault

Eliminate antimicrobial soaps, replacing with simple castile soap

Switch from chlorinated tap water to spring water or filtered water

Discontinue unnecessary medications that disrupt microbiome (under medical guidance)

Remove processed foods that feed pathogenic organisms

Create Space for Healing

Begin each meal with gratitude for the biological intelligence in your food

Spend 10 minutes daily in nature, barefoot if possible

Practice the prayer hands meditation to create bioelectric coherence

Start a journal documenting your relationship with your microbiome

Phase 2: Gentle Introduction (Weeks 5-8)

Begin with Liquid Probiotics

Start with 1 teaspoon of sauerkraut juice or kefir water daily

Gradually increase to 1/4 cup over two weeks

Add 1 teaspoon raw honey to warm (not hot) water each morning

Introduce one new fermented food weekly

Support with Prebiotics

Jerusalem artichokes, dandelion greens, garlic, onions

Green bananas and cooled potatoes for resistant starch

Diverse vegetables to feed diverse microbes

Traditional stocks and broths for gut healing

Phase 3: Colonization and Cultivation (Weeks 9-16)

Expand Fermented Foods

Add solid fermented vegetables, starting with 1 tablespoon per meal

Introduce milk kefir or yogurt if tolerated

Try water kefir for a probiotic beverage option

Experiment with fermented condiments (mustard, hot sauce, chutney)

Royal Jelly Protocol

Start with 1/8 teaspoon royal jelly under the tongue

Hold for 30 seconds before swallowing for sublingual absorption

Gradually increase to 1/4 teaspoon daily

Best taken on empty stomach for maximum effect

Phase 4: Deep Integration (Weeks 17-24)

Advanced Fermentation

Start your own sourdough culture or kefir grains

Learn to ferment seasonal vegetables

Share and exchange cultures with others

Create a “fermentation pharmacy” with multiple active cultures

Environmental Microbiome

Garden without gloves to exchange microbes with soil

Adopt a pet if possible for microbial diversity

Swim in natural bodies of water (if you are able to, visit an ancient ceynote in Mexico)

Create a home environment that supports beneficial microbes

Phase 5: Maintenance and Evolution (Ongoing)

Living in Biological Time

Maintain daily fermented food consumption

Continue bioelectric coherence practices (learn more)

Seasonal eating to align with natural microbial cycles

Regular fasting to allow microbial ecosystem recalibration

Share the Wisdom

Teach others about the holobiont nature of humanity

Share fermentation cultures and knowledge

Create community around traditional food preparation

Document and pass on successful protocols

Signs of Successful Restoration

As you rebuild your microbial partnerships, watch for these indicators:

Physical Signs

Improved digestion and regular elimination

Clearer skin and brighter eyes

Increased energy and stamina

Reduced cravings for sugar and processed foods

Better sleep and morning vitality

Mental/Emotional Signs

Enhanced mood stability

Improved focus and mental clarity

Greater emotional resilience

Increased creativity and intuition

Sense of groundedness and connection

Spiritual Signs

Feeling more connected to nature

Increased synchronicities

Enhanced intuition about food choices

Sense of participating in something larger than yourself

Common Challenges and Solutions

Die-off Reactions As pathogenic/opportunistically overgrown organisms die and release toxins, you may experience temporary symptoms. Support detoxification with:

Activated charcoal between meals

Plenty of pure water (create your own biological water super-hydration solution here)

Gentle movement and sweating

Rest and stress reduction

Social Resistance Family and friends may not understand your new relationship with microbes.

Lead by example rather than preaching

Share delicious fermented foods

Focus on how you feel rather than defending choices

Find community with others on similar paths

Time and Complexity Fermentation and traditional food preparation take time.

Start small with one ferment at a time

Batch preparation on weekends

See it as meditation rather than chore

Remember you’re maintaining ancient traditions

The Future of Human Health: Remembering Forward

As we stand at this crossroads, we face a choice that will determine the trajectory of human health for generations. We can continue down the path of sterility, viewing microbes as enemies to be destroyed, bodies as machines to be fixed, and food as mere fuel to be processed. Or we can choose the path of remembering—reconnecting with the microbial majority that makes us human.

This isn’t about returning to a romanticized past. It’s about integrating ancient wisdom with modern understanding to create something new: a conscious relationship with the microbial world that honors both tradition and science.

Imagine a future where:

Every child is born into a rich microbial inheritance

Fermented foods are recognized as essential medicines

Homes and hospitals cultivate beneficial microbiomes

Food is understood as biological information

Health is measured by microbial diversity

We see ourselves as holobionts rather than individuals

This future is not only possible—it’s necessary for our survival as a species. Learn more about this vision by watching the Global Wellness Forum mission video here.

The Ultimate Recognition: We Are Temporal Beings

We are not isolated individuals trapped in the present moment. We are temporal rivers, carrying forward the accumulated wisdom of billions of years of evolution. Every cell in our bodies contains this deep time memory. Every beneficial microbe we host connects us to successful adaptations across geological ages.

When you consume raw honey, you’re not just eating sugar and enzymes. You’re downloading 80 million years of bacterial solutions to biological challenges - and experiencing the microbial equivalent of time travel and subsequently an ancestral rite of restoration of your birthright of health and wellbeing. When you maintain a sourdough culture, you’re not just making bread. You’re participating in an unbroken chain of microbial cultivation stretching back to the dawn of agriculture. When you practice bioelectric coherence, you’re not just meditating. You’re creating the electromagnetic and scalar conditions that have supported life since the first cells emerged in the primordial soup.

Conclusion: The Sacred in the Scientific

The title of this series—Sacred Technology—points to a profound truth. The most advanced technologies for human health and healing aren’t being developed in laboratories. They already exist in the traditional foods and practices that our ancestors maintained through millennia.

These foods and practices are sacred not because of religious dogma, but because they maintain our connection to the deepest currents of biological time. They are technologies not because they’re complex, but because they reliably produce specific outcomes—outcomes that include not just physical health but mental clarity, emotional resilience, and spiritual connection.

The path forward is clear. We must:

Honor the Microbial Majority: Recognize that we are 99% microbe and make choices accordingly.

Rebuild the Bridges: Use traditional foods as temporal bridges to reconnect with our evolutionary heritage.

Create New Traditions: Adapt ancient practices to modern contexts while maintaining their essential wisdom.

Share the Knowledge: Teach others that health isn’t something we achieve but something we remember.

Trust the Process: Understanding that healing happens on biological time, not human schedules.

Every choice matters. Every meal is an opportunity to vote for connection over isolation, depth over superficiality, wisdom over cleverness. In a world that profits from our disconnection, choosing to commune with deep biological time through our food is both radical resistance and profound healing.

We were never meant to be alone. We were designed as walking ecosystems in constant communion with the living world. That communion is still available, encoded in every drop of raw honey, every bubble of fermentation, every glass of living water.

The ancient microbes are still broadcasting their wisdom. The scalar fields still carry their songs. The temporal bridges still span the ages. We need only tune back in, one conscious bite at a time.

This is the true sacred technology: using nature’s time-traveling pharmacy to remember who we’ve always been. Eden isn’t a place we’ve lost—it’s a state of biological coherence we can recover. And it begins with something as simple as a spoonful of honey, carrying the whispers of ancient allies ready to help us remember our way home.
