*Glucose is a sugar molecule that is the body's main source of energy; most carbohydrates are broken down to glucose during digestion. Fructose is a different form of sugar, commonly found in fruit. Sucrose, or table sugar, is a disaccharide consisting of a molecule of glucose joined to a molecule of fructose. merit changes. For us, the first big change came ten thousand years ago with the advent of agriculture."- Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.) |
| "When an oxygen molecule loses an electron, it becomes an unstable molecule called a free radical, which tries to stabilize itself by grabbing another electron from a molecule of any body substance or tissue nearby, causing that molecule in turn to become unstable. Antioxidants are molecules that are able to donate an oxygen molecule to the free radical without becoming destabilized themselves.
This process of free radical creation is called oxidation, a normal and important part of your body's metabolism." - Earl L. Mindell, RPh, PhD with Virginia Hopkins, MA, Bottom Line's Prescription Alternatives (Get the book.) |
 "One CFC molecule can destroy tens of thousands of ozone molecules, and can continue doing so for many decades before it is itself destroyed.
Along with the new reports of thinning ozone, we are faced with pictures of children in Australia and New Zealand who have to cover their skin and wear broad-brimmed hats, and with estimates of the increases in skin cancers and eye cataracts that are likely to result from the increased exposure to ultraviolet light. But skin cancers and eye cataracts will probably be the least of our worries. What will happen to other creatures?"- Peter Russell, Waking Up In Time: Finding Inner Peace In Times of Accelerating Change (Get the book.) |
 "The complement cascade is set off when the first complement molecule encounters an antibody bound to an antigen (tagged for removal). Each of the complement enzymes acts on the others to create a cylinder-like shape that punctures the antigen cell membrane and, by allowing fluids and molecules to flow in and out, dooms the target cell.
MOUNTING AN IMMUNE RESPONSE
Microbes attempting to get into the body must first get past the skin and mucous membranes, which not only pose a physical barrier but are also rich in scavenger cells and some types of antibodies."- Tom Bohager, Everything You Need to Know About Enzymes to Treat Everything from Digestive Problems and Allergies to Migraines and Arthritis (Get the book.) |
 "If it bumps into a DNA molecule, trouble. But if it encounters a glutathione molecule, the twosome are often terminated by a chemical reaction; the carcinogen is neutralized, detoxified. Obviously, the more glutathione molecules in tissue, the greater the statistical chances that they will meet and destroy a carcinogenic molecule, leaving vital DNA untouched. Thus, not keeping enough glutathione molecules available in the darkest interior of your being could be an event of potential doom.

For us, the first big change came ten thousand years ago with the advent of agriculture. (And it devastated our health, leading to a panoply of deficiencies and infectious diseases that we've only managed to get under control in the last century or so.) The biggest change in our food environment since then? The advent of the modern diet." - Michael Pollan, In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto (Get the book.) |
 "Some viruses are based on a related type of molecule, RNA, while prions are, in a sense, self-replicating protein molecules.) Special structures within each organism's cells act as computers to execute these gene programs. The execution consists of manufacturing certain molecules (proteins) from simpler molecules (amino acids) under certain external conditions. For example, the sequence 'ATG' is an instruction to incorporate the amino acid methionine into the protein molecule being manufactured."- David Deutsch, The Fabric of Reality: The Science of Parallel Universes and Its Implications (Get the book.) |
| "Nature no longer had to build these macro-molecules through the combination of smaller subunits; instead, each molecule served as a template from which copies of itself could be built. And these copies served as templates for further copies. Nature had invented its own way of learning.
"Remembering" modifications from previous generations, living cells were able to "learn" those characteristics that enhanced their chances of survival. And the better they survived, the faster their numbers grew." - Peter Russell, Waking Up In Time: Finding Inner Peace In Times of Accelerating Change (Get the book.) |

Antioxidants are molecules that are able to donate an oxygen molecule to the free radical without becoming destabilized themselves.
This process of free radical creation is called oxidation, a normal and important part of your body's metabolism. It's when oxidation reactions overwhelm your body's ability to stabilize them that they do damage."- Earl L.

| "Energy is produced when an oxygen molecule loses an electron. The process destabilizes the molecule, like a balloon that deflates when its knot is untied. In its wild flight, the freed electron (free radical) seeks to unite with another electron to stabilize itself. The liberated electron resolves its problem by stealing an electron from another molecule.
This causes a chain reaction resulting in cellular chaos. The molecules strike furiously against each other in an effort to stabilize themselves, further destabilizing other molecules within the cell." - Francisco, M.D. Contreras, Health in the 21st Century: Will Doctors Survive? (Get the book.) |

 "SYNTHETIC - means that in the laboratory, the scientist has attempted to reconstruct the exact structure of the crystalline molecule by putting together or chemically combining molecules from other known sources. Chemically, therefore, there is no difference between the synthetic and the crystalline. As a vitamin, there is no difference between the two."- Kenneth W Thomas, Ron Gilbert, Gerd Schaller, Side Effects: The Hidden Agenda of the Pharmaceutical Drug Cartel (Get the book.) |
 "A free radical is a molecule that is missing an electron, and since it wants to rebalance its electrical charge, it will try to steal an electron from wherever it can: molecules of fat, protein, DNA, etc. When DNA is altered, it can lead to cell mutation, possibly leading to cancer. Therefore, it is good to have spare electrons to give to these free radicals so that they don't wreak havoc.
A healthy, vital body contains lots of spare electrons. According to David and Annie Jubb, people who radiate, appearing to glow with light, are those with abundant spare electrons."- Susan E. Schenck, The Live Food Factor: The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet (Get the book.) "The chlorophyll molecule is almost identical to the hemoglobin molecule, which is the oxygen carrier in human blood. Therefore, when you eat plants in their living, unheated state, the chlorophyll actually feeds oxygen to your body. Cooked food does not contain this organic type of oxygen. This is why, when you eat lots of greens or drink wheatgrass juice, you immediately feel a surge of energy. Wheatgrass is an especially good source of oxygen." - Susan E.

 "Each molecule of glycogen in these tissues is bonded to a water molecule, so as the glycogen is liberated, the water rushes into your bloodstream and passes through your kidneys. Bingo! Now you know why you get a sudden "miracle" weight loss when you start most diets. Believe it or not, you've stored this water because in ancient Africa, winter was a dry season; you're designed to store fat and water when your genes perceive winter is coming. That bloated feeling and your high blood pressure usually disappear when you start Phase 1, for this reason."- Dr. Steven R. Gundry, Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You - And Your Waistline - And Drop the Weight for Good (Get the book.) |
 "However, because these natural medicines are not readily patentable, pharmaceutical companies try to tweak the natural molecules to create a novel synthetic molecule that can then be patented as something novel and unique. Often these molecules cause as much cell mischief as the help they offer.
Having found ginger to be a COX-2 inhibitor, Schulick, a master herbalist with twenty-five years of experience, scoured all the available medical databases, including the National Library of Medicine and the U.S."- David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.) |
 "Evolution has sited many different receptor molecules on the surface of nerve cell, each of which will stick to only one specific molecule."7 The result is that nerve cells have a guide that directs them toward connection with other cells. All that is required for connection is that other nerve cells have matching receptor molecules. The cells are able to ignore all other nonmatching nerve cells.
Darling goes on to point out that these cells establish a "skeletal nervous system upon which all subsequent fibers can build."- Dr. Arthur Janov, Primal Healing: Access the Incredible Power of Feelings to Improve Your Health (Get the book.) |
 "A food can contain a molecule that your body has difficulty breaking down or digesting. As that molecule is allowed to continue down your intestinal tract, your body shows signs of an intolerance response. Lactose intolerance is an example of this type of toxic food response. Food intolerances can also be caused by food additives such as benzoates (including sodium benzoate, an additive found in literally thousands of processed foods) and sulfites, which are added to processed foods to extend their shelf life."- Frank Lipman, Mollie Doyle, Spent: Revive: Stop Feeling Spent and Feel Great Again (Get the book.) |

 "All he or she can do is to make use of the properties of substances so that a specific molecule can form. Moreover, simply because a molecule that was first produced in a laboratory was at the time unknown in nature does not mean that the molecule does not occur in some plant that has not yet been discovered or studied. For example, N,N-DMT was first synthesized in a laboratory and described as an artificial molecule. Later, it was discovered that this same molecule occurs naturally in plants, animals, and even humans."- Christian Ratsch, The Encyclopedia of Psychoactive Plants: Ethnopharmacology and Its Applications (Get the book.) |
 "Where the Molecules Dance The First Decade
"A molecule of steel, a molecule of gas, a molecule of brain matter are all of the one primeval substance—the Ether."
Clara Bloomfield-Moore Keely and his Discoveries, Aerial Navigation, 1893
"What ether is, no one knows. "
Thomas H. Burgoyne, The Light of Egypt, 1900
With the funds obtained through the sale of stock, Keely began the construction of a much larger multiplicator with which to decompose or disintegrate water, and with the vapor obtained he promised to run an engine. The multiplicator became a huge structure, weighting 80,000 lbs."- Theo Paijmans, Free Energy Pioneer: John Worrell Keely (Get the book.) |
 "The resident neighbor of the cell is the molecule.
A molecule is the tiniest possible piece of a substance that can still be identified as that substance. These molecules are composed of smaller units. These units, called atoms, are the smallest units of matter. Atoms are substances such as hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon. These atoms are bound together in a configuration specific to a substance. Chemical formulas, equations, and diagrams all represent the authenticity of these configurations."- Richard, Dr. DiCenso, Beyond Medicine, exploring a new way of thinking (Get the book.) |

 "In the first experiment, which involved only one person, effects were produced by a combination of "directed intention, unconditional love and specific imagery of the DNA molecule." In the words of one of the researchers, "These experiments revealed that different intentions produced different effects on the DNA molecule causing it to either wind or unwind."18 Clearly, the implications are beyond anything that's been allowed for in traditional scientific theory until now.

 "To control that movement, the walls incorporate a dynamic system of aqueducts and pumps to move nutrients in and out of the bacterial cell; some of the pumps use a charged molecule to push or pull molecules with an opposite charge into the cell. Other systems use proteins to open channels in the cell wall that permit the entrance or exit of only one material. Still others assemble a train of proteins that pass an amino acid from one to the other, while other proteins hold open the membrane channel."- William Rosen, Justinian's Flea: The First Great Plague and the End of the Roman Empire (Get the book.) |
 "CANCER: The phytonutrient anethole, which occurs naturally in fennel, has been shown to reduce the gene-altering and inflammationtriggering molecule called NF-kappa B. It also helps reduce tumor necrosis factor (TNF), a cancer-signaling molecule, thus enhancing cancer cell death.
STOMACH RELIEF: Anethole and other terpenoids have been known to inhibit spasms in the intestinal tract, acting as a gas-relieving and cramp-relieving agent.

 "Researchers in France have found a special molecule containing the amino acids lysine, threonine and serine that resemble a small piece of collagen. This molecule is able to replenish the collagen matrix, which helps restore the tautness and elasticity of the skin. This molecule contributes to creating firmer young appearing skin.
The TDRC also contains colostrum from New Zealand, extracts of reishi and other Japanese mushrooms, and alpha hydroxy acids (AHA). The AHA appears to smooth out wrinkles and lines.
TDRC has a skin protection factor of 15."- James A. Howenstine, A Physician's Guide to Natural Health Products That Work (Get the book.) |
 "Rise and Fall of the Machine
In the southwest of Brussels, a three-hundred-foot-tall molecule rises along the edge of the Laeken Park. The molecule, made of steel and glass and magnified 165 billion times, has been there since the world's fair of 1958. In that year, as a gesture to the exciting new technologies developed after World War II, Belgium commissioned the molecule as its host pavilion. They called it the Atomium."- Mark Schapiro, Exposed: The Toxic Chemistry of Everyday Products and What's at Stake for American Power (Get the book.) |
