In this era when the whole world is in a psychotic recession, where Covid-19 feeds on human substrate unprepared for the "pandemic state", the only real salvation is listening to one's metabolism. It is not a title from Hollywood, it is a real lockdown of the human race which, once again in history, demonstrates its ineptitude which, by syllogism, would mean a lack of resilient property. A resilience not in relation to a material, but metaphorically projected to a reflection where man, the only protagonist endowed with intellect, once again makes the same mistakes by entering the usual loop that punctually repeats itself every decade. Mind and body seem to be no longer distinguishable and have lost the structuring quality that their role determined and made possible constructive actions on the world. The distance between observer and observed, between mind and matter, has faded as if to cruelly provoke a loss of consciousness and identity crisis, hindering the creation of new models, theories and correlations that allow to act in this world. Neuroscience is shedding light on crucial aspects of the nervous system, such as the modalities of neuronal growth and selection of unused synapses (Edelman 1987), as well as the effects of learning or repeated and recorded experiences, on metabolism and cellular gene transcription ( Kandel, Schartz, Jessel, 1991). Psychosomatics with a view to multifactoriality and interdependence for mind-body study are the key points for the study presented here.
The purpose of the present investigation is to combine the modus operandi of today’s medical-scientific research, particularly in the nutritional field, with the humanistic soul of philosophical thought, always aiming at the demystification of the reality and at the unmasking of the contradictions characterizing the current psychosocial model of economic development. The divergent thought, supporting axis of the proposed research, allows, in fact, to carry out a meticulous epidemiological examination of the diachronic parabola of pathologies connected to eating disorders, to then decline it in an innovative case study on the correlation between salivary pH increase and loss of fat mass. The comprehension of the metabolic model in an oscillatory perspective of mind-body quantum entanglement, makes possible a unitary and organic consideration of the human psyche not only as a result of biochemical processes and of higher cognitive functions (connected to the prefrontal cortical area), but also as a result, in recent times, of worrying and deleterious digital - media contaminations, often responsible for all those psychopathologies linked to the deformed perception of the body-self, to the loss of contact with reality and to all kinds of eating behavior disorders subtly injected by society of appearance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
