Illuminating Water and Life

Abstract: This paper reviews the quantum electrodynamics theory of water put forward by Del Giudice and colleagues and how it may provide a useful foundation for a new science of water for life. The interaction of light with liquid water generates quantum coherent domains in which the water molecules oscillate between the ground state and an excited state close to the ionizing potential of water. This produces a plasma of almost free electrons favouring redox reactions, the basis of energy metabolism in living organisms… Show more

“…One hypothesis that may be considered is electromagnetic signaling and resonance. 23 Jacques Benveniste, in the same way, proposed that a ligand molecule emits an electromagnetic signal with a frequency identical to the receptor's molecules that causes them to co-resonate and activate the same intracellular responses. 24…”

“…One answer, not previously considered, is EM signaling and resonance. 39 Jacques Benveniste, in the same way, proposed that a ligand molecule emits an EMS with a frequency identical to the receptor's molecules that causes them to co-resonate and activate the same intracellular responses.…”

“…Chai et al, 37 Ryzhkina et al, 38 and Ho 39 pointed out that the near-surface EZ expands extensively in the presence of incident radiant energy: that is, growth of this more ordered, negatively charged, zone is dependent on incident EM energy. As stated by Pollack, the energy derives from the radiant energy absorbed and stored in the water.…”

“…This phenomenon has been explained from a (Grotthuss) conduction mechanism that involves the exchange of the chemical O-H bond and the hydrogen bond in the O-H•••O hydrogen-bonded system formed by an H 3 O + /OH − ion and an H 2 O molecule. Metabolic/energetic regulation may well depend on the flow of protons (proton currents) and on other nonlinear optical and phonon effects such as solitons via liquid semi-crystalline water (which is sharing all the characteristics of soft matter, as for colloids, polymers, gels and foams 3 ) [15], structured in nanospaces throughout the extracellular matrix into the interior of every single cell and its nanospaces [16]. Moreover, the separation of positive and negative charges is important for short and long range collective coherent correlation (SLRCCC), especially in the form of proton-SLRCCC.…”
