The Human Body Emits, Communicates with, and is Made from Light

Science has found that our bodies emit light. The term for this light is biophotons.

How do biophotons affect your health? Here is a short list:

• They are emitted by the human body and can be measured.
• They can be created through mental intention and awareness.
• They may modulate basic processes within cell-to-cell communication and your DNA.

And humans are not the only ones who have this. Plants, animals and even bacteria also exhibit biophoton activity.

Like anything that helps support and regulate the body, knowing what affects biophotons can improve your health. Among the most common ways to strengthen this aspect of your health is meditation and taking certain herbs.

The Best Way To Boost Your Smart Gene

Did you know you have a gene that makes you smart?

You do. It produces a substance called BDNF. BDNF acts like growth hormone for your brain. It enhances nearly every part of brain function, including:

• synapses (the connections between nerve cells).

• synaptic transmission (how neurons talk to each other).

• the formation of the “glial” cells (these act as your brain’s immune cells, anchor neurons, and help clean up waste).

• the development of dendrites (your brain cells’ “antennae,” these cells receive signals from other parts of the brain and communicate them to the cell body).

• brain cell formation and protection.

Sounds like a good thing to have, doesn’t it?

If you want to enhance it, there is one common nutrient that does the job. It is DHA. DHA is part of Omega-3 fish oil.

More Skin Allergies From Chemical In Cosmetics And Household Products

There is a recent increase in skin rashes.

Some of these come from skin contact with on particular chemical. That chemical is found in a variety of products. These include shampoos, moisturizers and shower gels.

In other words, if you have a skin rash, it may be coming from the products you use.

The chemical is called MI. It is used to control bacteria and yeast. But it also can cause a skin rash in sensitive people. Even in people without sensitivity, if they are exposed to too much, it can trigger a response.

You Can Have A Much Younger Body & Mind

There are some simple things you can do to slow the effects of aging. And some of these will make you actually feel younger.

You can take advantage of these improvements for little to no money. And you will likely be surprised at how simple most of them are. For example, if you learn to breathe the right way, you will increase the ability of your lungs to take in oxygen. And oxygen is like rocket fuel for your brain and body.

And although the article mentions drinking thyme tea, it does so because of thyme’s antioxidant properties. Antioxidants reduce inflammation and increase health. That means if you increase antioxidant foods and supplements, you will also get this effect.

For the full list, see this article. You can learn all about it here.

Why Are These People Trying To Sneak One By You?

The Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA) doesn’t want you to know important things about the food you eat.

They are now pushing to have the FDA declare that GMO foods can be labeled “natural”.

Natural? Well, I guess as natural as anything cooked up in a laboratory can be. The deeper irony here is that you can’t patent anything that is natural, but you can patent GMO organisms.

If, like me, you want the right to know what you are eating, you need to read this article. It includes things you can do to defeat this attempt to deceive you.
