Interpretation of the Degenerative Phenomena

By Dr. Oscar Vargas-Machuca E MD - February 7, 2003

The cell, the primordial element of living organisms, is the smallest portion of living matter, which contains all the attributes that determine the living: birth, reproduction and death, as well as it constitutes the building blocks of tissues and organs. Their internal structure is a true miracle of the creation of the universe, and its comprehension, though extraordinary advances in science, have not been able to decipher its nature in its totality.
The internal organization of a cell remains under the control of the different transformations that produce the combinations and interchanges of the various organic molecules that make them up. The transformations have a particular specific nature, which make them occur in different compartments of the cell at different time intervals, and thus give rise to the cellular structure.
All the chemical transformations produced are of extreme complexity, and are regulated by the extraordinary specificity of covalent bonding. This entire complicated act is carried out only by 45 essential factors, which give rise to proteins and enzymes that make up the albuminous phase of the cell, where physical and chemical changes take place. All these changes, which are based upon the laws of thermodynamics, and gradients of transformation both negentropic and entropic, work in perfect harmony and under the regulation of molecules of DNA; the basis for genetics.
Under these circumstances, the cell has extraordinary properties in its functioning, and among the most important is the ability it has to defend itself against the various diseases. This property is manifested through the large memory accumulated in the genetic code, throughout the millions of years of evolution and further modified by genetic adaptations. These new modifications allow for the better, faster and stronger defense against the various infecting agents, both internal as well as external, that are constantly trying to neutralize normal cell functioning.
It is simple to understand that we have defended well, and our mere presence today is the proof that we are survivors, against the struggle we had to overcome in order to attain biological strength. Thus, our species is a triumphant one. However, we should not feel all too proud to think we are super-living-entities, or that thanks to all the attributes mentioned above we should be always free from disease. In truth, our daily living offers proof contrary to what we may think; our specie is indeed sick and in most of the cases, we die prematurely, either from infectious problems, or degenerative, involutive or proliferative disorders. In one phrase, dying from progressive exhaustion of our genetic program does not exist.

Our Specie Eats Poorly
In our investigation, we have been able to conclude, that the phenomena of health deterioration is the result of a chronic and persistent deficiency of an optimal diet, and that this lack of essential factors make the cell function inefficiently. Thus, halting the development of enough defensive potential, as well as regenerative power, needed to prolong life.

Alen and Eveliza
Are both compounds formed by nutritious substances, which are of special qualities, in view that they contain an elevated concentration of essential factors in their natural state of singular aggregation; giving these products a higher biological power than that found in the nutrients in our daily and regular diets. From an esterochemical point of view, food molecules are found as isomers, which quirality is unstable and thus, they must denature through physical and chemical actions. These actions are what we use in the preparation of our foods, acts that most likely destroy 80% of the nutritious power of our meals. This occurs because we transform these nutritious molecules into chemical compounds that cannot be recognized by our enzymes and thus, end up having no nutritious value.

The Tragedy of Humanity
Our species does indeed eat poorly, and no one in this world has a perfect diet; this tragedy began approximately 700,000 years ago, when we freed ourselves from being scavengers and discovered fire. The action of fire over food makes it more digestible by diminishing the size of the molecules, however, without noticing, it also helped destroy the chemical arrangements of organic compounds, which were of immense value to the repairing capabilities of our food. The changes produced by the use of fire, make nutrients unrecognizable, to our enzymes, this phenomenon although simple, encloses the key to our good health and longevity, and we should take it seriously if we want to be able to explain and understand the processes of health and sickness. On the other hand, the amount of nutrients that we ingest daily are scant, to understand this better let us follow this reasoning; assume that a person eats 500 grams of food, this food comes from organic material and thus contains 70% of water, which subtracted from the original amount leaves us with 150 grams of solid food. Of these 150 grams 60% is made up of fats and sugars, thus leaving 60 grams of solid food. However, these 60 grams must be cooked, in order to diminish the size of the molecules and make them more digestible, of course, in this operation we also destroy the quirality or chemical constitution of essential factors, degrading an 80%, a percentage which subtracted from the 60 grams leaves us with only 12 grams of nutritious molecules. This last amount from any point of view, is a ridiculous quantity of reconstructive material for our tissues. The previous reasoning is of great transcendence for the interpretation of the degenerative phenomenon that our specie experiences prematurely, and which final corollary is diseases and premature aging.
