The myth that the sun is toxic. The medical curriculum is subsidized by big pharma Meredith: "What would you say is the biggest myth that people have about going out in the sun?" Dr. Jack Kruse: "That the sun is toxic. That is absolute utter nonsense. If it was, every wild animal and all these beautiful trees around us would have every rip roaring disease, and it turns out we're the only animal on this planet that has chronic disease epidemics. And what do we do? We come out of our mama, we wear clothes, we wear sunglasses, we have sunscreen. […] It's almost ludicrous. If you took your three children to one of the farms that are up here, and you saw a baby horse or a baby pig being born, would they come out with Abercrombie & Fitch on it? […] Is there any animal that does what humans do? Maybe we need to start asking those questions right then and there. Maybe we need to start questioning anything. […] "I always tell people it's the mark of an educated mind to take something you fundamentally do not believe, so any physician watching this who doesn't believe that the sun is helpful for health, you need to hold that concept in your mind, go examine it, go look at all the papers that are out there. You might be shocked at what you find. You may find that what you learned at Harvard, Yale, Cornell, UCSF, UC San Diego, any place you want to go. All of those places, the medical curriculum is subsidized by big pharma. Shocker." Dr. Jack Kruse with Meredith @ 27:20–28:22 & 30:22–31:02 (posted 2020-11-13)

Information is energy. Light has information in it. When you're in the wrong light, you delete melatonin, you delete your life force. "What's the defect in the environment that led to this disease state?" Dr. Jack Kruse: "And it turns out with information theory, what does it say? When information is lost from light, mass has to be expended. […] "Information is energy. That's the leap. And it turns out that light has information in it. Well if you're a doctor, don't you think you want to know what kind of information your patients are getting? Do you think the information in an indoor blue-lit world is maybe different than the one that comes from the sun when you're outside in the morning? "And do you think that may have bigger implications then maybe you currently think now and just because we live in indoor existence and 99.8% of the light that humans live under today is manufactured, that should be a stunning realization too. You should say, 'Well, if we're living under this light that we created from Tesla and Edison, how is this ruining information signaling?' Like are we making all the zeros and ones that we're supposed to? Is disease maybe tied to what Jack just said, when information is lost in a system mass is lost. "Well last time I checked melatonin is made out of mass. When melatonin is lost, you lose the two change programs in mitochondria. You can't change them. So guess what? Now I just explained to you that a loss of information of your light can actually create losses of things with mass [snaps fingers] overnight. Like it doesn't have to develop; there's no prodrome. [snaps fingers] It [snaps fingers] happens [snaps fingers] like that. Why? Because how does light work? Photons experience no time, and you keep forgetting that. […] "I tried to give you that clue about the light bulbs in your house. I want you to understand that when you change the light bulbs in your house compared to that sun behind me, that ultimately it's going to lead to a deletion of mass and different proteins in your body. It turns out that those proteins might be some of the most important proteins you have. Like melatonin, everybody thinks about sleep. It's not, it's really not. Melatonin controls actually how good your engines are in your body, which are your mitochondria, through those two change programs you talked about. […] When you're in the wrong light, you delete melatonin from the system. That means you deleted your life force. OK? […] "Is anybody really asking the fundamental question? Like, 'What information in my environment is being lost that's causing a problem in my life?' No, because the patient doesn't know to ask that question when they show up in your office. It's your job as a clinician to say, 'What makes this person unique? What about them is causing them to lose information from the waveforms in their environment?' Instead of looking at the defect in them, […] maybe the way we need to think about this, 'What's the defect in the environment that led to this disease state?' Then maybe you'll get a different answer than you've gotten from doctors for 10, 15, 20 years."

Practicing cold thermogenesis at age 14: "I would always go out with a wet head. […] I'd ride to school on the subway, in between the subway cars, and my hair would freeze." Why cold thermogenesis is useful for many diseases Dr. Jack Kruse: "I remember distinctly, waking up in New York City, going to high school. I would always go out with a wet head. At the time I used to have curly hair like Robert Plant from Led Zeppelin, and it used to go down the back of my head. I would go out with it soaking wet, it would make my coat wet. I'd ride to school on the subway, in between the subway cars, and my hair would freeze. Every day my mom was convinced I was going to have pneumonia, I was going to die. Turned out when I was that age, I was the only one in the house that never got sick, even living in New York City, traveling in a subway. That's the effect of cooling on your head. That's something called cold thermogenesis. "Well, let's fast forward now 30 years. I'm a neurosurgeon. What do I do when someone gets their head bashed in? I cool their head to improve their function. Why? Because it actually makes mitochondria a more thermally efficient heat engine. How about that? So guess what? The same principle that I didn't even know I was doing at 14 years old, now at 55, people are paying me money for it. "And when I teach people to use it for different diseases now, their primary care doctor will say, 'Oh well, you know, we're not talking about your head kicked in. We're talking about you having diabetes, or we're talking about you having obesity. It won't work for that.' Well, it won't? Tell me why it won't? And they can't. It's the height of ignorance and arrogance for someone not to examine the science behind something then go out and tell the public, 'Oh, this won't work.' […] It's an epidemic in medicine right now. Huge epidemic. "And I always tell people, it's the mark of an educated mind to take something you fundamentally do not believe, […] you need to hold that concept in your mind, go examine it, go look at all the papers that are out there. You might be shocked at what you find." Dr. Jack Kruse @ 28:30–30:43 (posted 2020-11-13)
