Voeikov and his colleagues found first that this increases greatly on The best way to neutralise these chain reactions is to intensify stimulation of ROS production with zymosan [a carbohydrate production of ROS by "sparking" with negative ions, ozone or other obtained from yeast cell walls]. Most remarkable was the activated oxygen therapies.

But it has been largely ignored by mainstream some non-living materials, e.g., solutions of methyl glyoxal and medicine—partly because its mode of action was unknown, and glycine, there was both generation of ROS and release of partly because it cannot be patented.

The rhythmic release of therapy with singlet oxygen energy as developed by [the late] Tony this energy, which is capable of a wide range of frequencies—going van der Valk.’ Air is first bubbled through water to saturate it with up even to the megahertz region—is consistent with their role as water vapour. It then passes a metal plate coated with a pacemakers of metabolic processes. Indeed, Voeikov suggests that photosensitive phthalocyanin compound onto which is directed a modulations of frequency rather than amplitude may be the most red-light-emitting diode (634 nm). important informative factor for cellular regulation.

Free radicals in therapy All this is not without medical significance. On the one hand is the finding of Chizevsky in the 1920s (which has recently been confirmed) that animals deprived of negative ions in the air became sick and died within days. On the other is the long tradition of successful therapy with ozone and hydrogen peroxide. It turns out that negative ions are in fact superoxide anion radicals, and that a regular supply of ROS from the environment is required to "spark" the internal mechanism of oxygen reduction. Without this, the oscillations in ROS metabolism tend to decay. And then, with insufficient ROS, the radical chain reactions proceed without proper termination and go on to damage biological molecules. About the Author: Retired from a career of research in fundamental immunology, Roger Taylor has spent 18 years conducting research (mainly private) around the scientific basis for subtle energy. In recent work he has been using Dr Konstantin Korotkov's GDV (computerised Kirlian) system to show responses to singlet oxygen therapy and Ormus (white gold) therapy. Most of his published articles have appeared in the magazine Caduceus, of which he is science editor. This article was first published in The Network Review (no. 87, Spring 2005, pp. 18-20), the journal of The Scientific and Medical Network. For more information, visit http://www.scimednet.org.
