Dream Team: Activated

How Two Maverick Doctors and a PhD. Just Unlocked the Missing Link Between Light and the Microbiome

TL;DR - Revelations That Change Everything:

• Vaccine contamination confirmed: Dr. Hazan's independent lab testing verified Kevin McKernan's discovery of SV40 contamination in COVID mRNA vaccines, providing biological mechanism for observed health impacts
• Mitochondria come in two types: November 2024 Nature study revealed mitochondria specialize under stress—some keep energy-producing folds, others lose them entirely and manufacture cellular building blocks
• Your gut bacteria are making light: Prokaryotic bacteria emit 5,000x more light than human cells, creating a quantum communication network that coordinates with your mitochondria through specific frequencies
• The autism-microbiome connection proven: mRNA vaccines kill bifidobacteria (the bacteria depleted in autistic children), and restoring these bacteria reversed autism in nonverbal twins who became fully verbal
• Your gut has three quantum zones: Upper gut (heavily insulated nerves, UV-light producing H. pylori), middle gut (transition zone), lower gut (minimal insulation, different bacterial populations, different light frequencies)
• Health emergency: California autism rates went from 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 27, representing cognitive devolution that threatens human problem-solving capacity for future generations

Don't Trust. Verify.

You know these words. You live these words when it comes to your bitcoin stack, your investment thesis, your business decisions. You verify addresses, you verify the mempool, you verify fundamentals before you commit your wealth.

But what about your health stack?

While you're securing your time and your financial future with the Bitcoin protocol, there's another one running in the background—one that most people never think to audit until it's too late. Your microbiome is processing transactions 24/7 too, and just like a compromised hardware wallet, when it fails, your whole system fails with it.

What they revealed exposes the fatal flaw in how we've been approaching health, disease, and the very nature of how our bodies operate.

Dr. Alexis Cowan (formerly Dr Alexis Jazmyn) is a Princeton-trained PhD specializing in metabolic physiology, mitochondrial medicine, and light biology. Her podcast Undoctrinate Yourself is a wealth of knowledge for anyone who likes to swim upstream, against the current, to seek-out the causal factors of biological dysfunction and find novel ways to correct them. This is, of course, why Cowan has had Dr. Jack Kruse on more than twice already and why some of my readers might think this publication is itself more of a KRUSE-letter than a newsletter. Sorry. As the saying goes, "You just can't unsee this stuff."

The Great Convergence

Dr. Sabine Hazan has been mapping the microbiome like others map the genome. Through her lab ProgenaBiome, she's discovered that people who survived COVID without getting sick had one thing in common: high levels of bifidobacteria. Those who got severely ill? They had virtually none.

Dr Hazan has been extremely welcoming to me in our DM discussions on X regarding microbiome testing and the findings her lab has produced in the past few years; she even offered to teach me to interpret the test she developed for mapping the microbiome. Now that's inclusive science!

While her test is still prohibitively expensive for my clients to use in the context of health transformation, it's refreshing to encounter a doctor who doesn't use her credentials to dismiss other practitioners' experience and knowledge, or discount the validity of the current gold standard in functional diagnostics, the GI MAP, a test that steadily reveals powerful healing opportunities to act on in my work at Sleuth Wellness.

All this to say, it's truly amazing how available Sabine can make herself given the wide demands of her professional activities. I will be forever grateful for her patient and cordial insights on microbiome health. You'll see these admirable traits if you decide to watch the podcast, especially how she interacts with Dr. Kruse who can be understandably caustic in his passion to wake up the world to fundamental yet systematically ignored truths. Dr. Hazan has a positively disarming affect on this lion of quantum biology and neurosurgery. I invite you to check out her and her work.

Dr. Jack Kruse has spent years proving that light—not just nutrition—controls our biology at the quantum level. He's shown that our mitochondria respond to specific frequencies of light, and that modern environments are essentially hacking our cellular operating systems.

To understand what Dr. Kruse discovered, you need to grasp a fundamental distinction in biology. Your human cells—skin, muscle, organ tissue—are eukaryotic cells, complex structures with nuclei that evolved to work as part of multicellular organisms. But the bacteria living in your gut are prokaryotes—ancient, simple cells without nuclei that have been perfecting light-based communication for billions of years.

As Dr. Kruse explained to Dr Hazan: "Prokaryotes release 5,000 times more light than eukaryotic cells... the microbiome is interacting with all these different things to make the movie that you are going to see in your clinic."

Here's why this matters for your daily health protocol: your abdominal area isn't just skin and muscle. The tissue composition there is uniquely designed to interact with both external sunlight and the internal light show your gut bacteria are producing. The rectus abdominis muscle has different lipid content that makes it more photosensitive than other areas of your body, while underneath, your gut wall contains specialized light-detecting cells that coordinate with the massive bacterial colonies residing there.

Think about that. Your bacteria aren't just processing food—they're processing light. They're communicating through frequencies. They're running a quantum network inside your body that makes the Whitepaper look primitive!

The Autism Epidemic: A Canary in the Coal Mine

Here's a data point that should terrify every parent reading this: California has gone from 1 in 100,000 autism cases to 1 in 27. As Dr. Kruse warned: "If you think anybody in the state of California has got the message loud and clear, none of them understand how the light in the environment is sculpting the microbiome."

This isn't just about autism. This is about cognitive function, immune resilience, metabolic health—everything that makes us human is being degraded by the same environmental factors.

Dr. Hazan's research shows that children with autism consistently have depleted bifidobacteria. When she treated identical twins who were nonverbal and restored their bifidobacteria levels, they became fully verbal and started reading. The correlation between lab markers and clinical improvement was unmistakable.

But here's the kicker: the modern environment—the screens, the artificial light, the EMF pollution, the processed foods—is systematically destroying the bacteria that children need for proper brain development.

Your kids are being cognitively short-circuited by the same technology you rely on for business. It's time to audit your family's light exposure with the same rigor you apply to portfolio allocation or performance analytics.

The Light Story Your Doctor Doesn't Know

Most physicians learned anatomy from textbooks that are essentially medical fiat currency—backed by pharmaceutical interests rather than fundamental biology. They know that the vagus nerve connects your brain to your gut, but they don't know that this nerve has different levels of myelination that correspond to different amounts of mitochondria, which produce different frequencies of light.

Myelin is a fatty substance that wraps around nerve fibers like electrical insulation around copper wire. The thicker the myelin coating, the faster nerve signals travel and the more energy the nerve requires to function. Just as high-performance electronics need better power supplies, heavily myelinated nerves need more mitochondria to fuel their rapid-fire communication.

What medical school doesn't teach is that the vagus nerve has different levels of myelination that correspond to different amounts of mitochondria, which produce different frequencies of light. The upper gut regions controlled by heavily insulated vagus nerve branches operate like high-speed fiber optic networks, while the lower intestinal areas with thinner nerve insulation function more like slower, energy-efficient systems.

Dr. Kruse broke it down: "The gut has some very interesting things... the first part of it is innervated by the vagus nerve... highly myelinated... that means that the myelin level has a link to how much mitochondria is there... and it turns out in the microbiome that the microbiology is different with those crista and those bacteria release different light."

This is why exposing your abdomen to morning sunlight isn't just wellness theater—it's activating specific bacterial populations through quantum mechanical processes that medical school didn't teach your doctor.

The Discovery That Changes Everything

Just months ago, researchers discovered something that overturns everything we thought we knew about mitochondria. Published in Nature in November 2024, scientists found that mitochondria actually come in two distinct types—something no one had ever documented before.

"We just found out literally in the last 6 months that we've always believed that just like all electrons are the same that all mitochondria are the same. We just found out we have two different kinds of mitochondria now—we have one with crista and one without." --Dr. Jack Kruse

To understand why this matters, you need to know what a crista is: these are simply folds in the inner membrane of your mitochondria, like accordion pleats that create more surface area for energy production. Think of them as the factory floors where your cellular powerhouses actually manufacture energy.

But here's the revolutionary discovery: under stress, mitochondria specialize. Some keep their crista folds and focus purely on energy production, while others actually lose their crista entirely and transform into building-block manufacturing units, producing the raw materials cells need to survive and repair.

This isn't just academic—it means your gut bacteria and mitochondria are dynamically reorganizing based on environmental conditions. Dr. Kruse continued: "It turns out in the microbiome that the microbiology is different with those crista and those bacteria release different light."

Your gut isn't just processing food—it's a quantum biological reactor where bacteria and mitochondria coordinate through light frequencies.

The Anatomy You Never Learned

The implications become even more profound when you understand gut anatomy that medical school somehow forgot to emphasize. Dr. Kruse broke down what's really happening:

The upper part of your gut, controlled by the heavily insulated vagus nerve, houses primarily Helicobacter bacteria that emit ultraviolet light in the 200-400 nanometer range. This area has high amounts of mitochondria and is directly connected to your brain through thick myelin sheaths—biological insulation that allows rapid communication.

As a FDN-P, trained that H. pylori at any level is a barrier to optimal health, this really has my ears pricked. This lends credence to the idea that H. pylori is likely a commensurate bacteria and its over-colonization in the body may somehow interfere with light signaling but in lower amounts could maybe enhance microbial balance. I will definitely be diving deeper into this revelation as client's continue to have health struggles under large colonizations of this gram-negative bacterium.

But as you move down the digestive tract toward the colon, the nerve insulation decreases, mitochondria become more exposed, and the bacterial populations shift to anaerobic species that produce different light frequencies entirely. The lower gut, where fecal transplants actually work, operates on a completely different quantum biological operating system.

This is why one-size-fits-all protocols fail. Your gut has three distinct zones, each with different bacterial populations, different mitochondrial configurations, and different light signatures.

The War on Your Sovereignty

Just as governments want to control your money through fiat debasement, Big Pharma wants to control your biology. The centralized medical system profits from your ignorance about these fundamental processes.

• When Dr. Hazan discovered that bifidobacteria levels predicted COVID outcomes, her papers were retracted.
• When she showed that certain treatments killed beneficial bacteria, she was censored.
• When she proved that functional approaches could reverse autism, she was marginalized.

As she explained: "I was the girl that brought drugs to market for pharma. I realized it when my clinical trials were censored... we couldn't even advertise... my credit card was no longer good for Facebook."

This is what self-custodying your health really means. You cannot outsource your family's biological security to institutions that profit from your sickness.

Beyond the Matrix of Acceptable Information

The conversation between these doctors revealed something profound: we've been living in a health matrix where the Overton window of acceptable medical discourse excludes the most fundamental aspects of human biology.

You've unplugged from financial tyranny through your understanding of Bitcoin. You've unplugged from media manipulation by doing your own research. Now it's time to unplug from medical tyranny by understanding that your body is a quantum biological system that requires biological solutions to thrive; they start with the very building blocks of function.

Unless the required inputs are met, a cascade of dysfunction follows, leading to compromised performance and eventually disease.

Dr. Hazan summed it up: "The microbiome is a way to look into the future in my opinion... and it gives us another insight that we didn't have before."

The Bitcoin Parallel You Need to Understand

You understand proof of work. You understand that Bitcoin's security comes from energy expenditure and cryptographic verification. Your health operates on the same principle.

Every day, your body is performing proof of work through a process called cellular respiration. Your mitochondria are the miners, processing energy and producing the light (biophotons) that coordinates everything from your immune system to your brain function. Just like Bitcoin mining requires efficient energy inputs to be sustainable, your cellular mining requires efficient light inputs.

And this is the piece the vast percentage of clinicians and practitioners completely miss and why Jack often appears frustrated in his internet posts.

You can't just run a carnivore protocol like it's a one-size-fits-all smart contract and expect it to work for everyone. You can't just HODL supplements, or worse, pharmaceuticals, and expect your health stack to remain secure. Your biological operating system is more complex than a simple ledger of inputs and outputs, and it requires continuous auditing and optimization.

You can learn to give your body exactly what it needs at any given moment based on the feedback it gives you, but only once you've gained the wisdom to recognize its signals. The fact is, mitochondrial dysfunction isn't felt overnight, and takes months or years until noticeable symptoms arise. The wrong light environment and the connection to how it affects your microbiome isn't obvious.

Data can map improvements in microbiome balance and diversity so you can really see how your light routine, and everything else, influences the less obvious messages your body might be sending. With the right knowledge, skin issues aren't just unrelated symptoms anymore; subtle or seemingly unrelated signs from your body are no longer a foreign language when the right data allows you to translate it into actionable information. Is a gut imbalance causing overall inflammation and pain elsewhere like in your joints? Wouldn't you like to know?

Carnivore? Keto? Is that all there is?

Stacking healthy habits goes beyond diet and exercise. Stacking has to be practiced across multiple areas. In health, that doesn't mean you're "de-worse-ifying" your efforts like it can in Bitcoin. The reality is that rebuilding or optimizing wellness has to go beyond carnivore, beyond keto, even beyond lifting heavy things, with a personalized strategy that respects function and ancestry but acknowledges those of us who can't just move to the ideal longitude and latitude for perfect UV and grounding exposure, those of us who live life in the real world, have kids and admit they can't be perfect at every level.

But some things will NEVER EVER belong in your health stack...

SV40 Contamination: VERIFIED

Perhaps the most explosive revelation in this conversation came when Dr. Hazan confirmed what Dr. Kruse has been saying for quite some time: the COVID mRNA vaccines were contaminated, and she has the lab data to prove it.

Dr. Hazan explained her connection with Kevin McKernan, the scientist who participated in mapping the human genome and was part of the original microbiome project at the NIH with Francis Collins. When McKernan discovered SV40 (Simian Virus 40) contamination in the vaccines, Dr. Hazan decided to verify his findings independently.

"When he came out with his whole SV40, I actually hired David Speicher from Toronto, flew him to my lab because we had vaccine samples and I said 'let's test the vaccine.' And sure enough we did find contamination."

But the implications go far deeper than contamination alone. Dr. Hazan linked this discovery to her clinical observations about autism and the microbiome:

"That contamination is an explanation to what I saw with the messenger RNA killing the bifidobacteria. ...because we have data coming that loss of bifidobacteria is linked with autism."

The pieces fit together with chilling precision. Dr. James Adams of Arizona State University has been researching the link between the microbiome and autism since the early 2000s. His work focuses specifically on how gut bacteria composition affects neurological function in children with autism. Dr. Hazan's lab found that mRNA vaccines destroy bifidobacteria. And in her clinical practice, when she restores bifidobacteria levels in autistic children, their symptoms improve dramatically.

She described treating the identical twins we touched on earlier, who were nonverbal and aggressive: "These two identical twins... had zero bifidobacteria at baseline and then by improving the bifidobacteria their speech improved." Both twins went from completely nonverbal to fully verbal and reading.

As Dr. Kruse stated bluntly: "We cannot continue to give children these vaccines and then expect families in California to run to your clinic to fix the microbiome when the real answer is stop injecting the kids."

This isn't conspiracy theory—this is peer-reviewed research from practicing physicians with decades of experience and access to sophisticated laboratory testing. The contamination Dr. Hazan found provides a biological mechanism explaining why autism rates have skyrocketed and why functional medicine approaches focused on microbiome restoration can reverse symptoms.

Like so many earth shattering revelations these days, most of the world remains silent, or numb. Is it that the message isn't getting out there? Certainly not in the lame stream media. But even as the internet mutes the narrative control mechanisms available to the mainstream news outlets, and this information is available to those paying attention, our HHS department has still not removed mRNA jabs from the market, this, despite many opponents claims that "they want to take away all our vaccines." Why?

The Protocol: Proof of Work in Your Health

Here's what the convergence of quantum biology and microbiome research means for your daily protocol:

Your morning sun exposure isn't just vitamin D production—it's programming bacterial gene expression in your gut through frequencies that penetrate deeper than anyone imagined. Your evening blue light exposure isn't just disrupting sleep—it's literally killing the bacteria your brain needs to function optimally.

The red light therapy devices you've seen everywhere typically emit wavelengths around 660-850 nanometers—frequencies that penetrate tissue and stimulate cellular energy production. But here's what no one has tested yet: Dr. Kruse predicts that bifidobacteria—the specific bacteria Dr. Hazan found depleted in autistic children—responds optimally to a broader spectrum between 400-800 nanometers, which includes both visible red light and extends into other beneficial frequencies.

Dr. Hazan wants to test this theory immediately in controlled laboratory conditions. The hypothesis is elegant: if specific light frequencies can stimulate bifidobacteria growth and function, and if restoring bifidobacteria populations correlates with improved neurological function, then targeted light therapy might offer a mechanism to restore the bacterial populations that modern environments have systematically destroyed.

When these two start collaborating on controlled studies, we'll move beyond generic red light protocols toward frequency-specific interventions that target the exact bacterial populations each individual needs most. This could potentially accelerate recovery timelines by directly addressing the quantum biological mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental conditions.

But you don't have to wait for their research to complete. The principles are already clear:

Secure your light environment with the same intensity you used to secure your private keys. Control what frequencies enter your biological system. Audit your EMF exposure. Verify your mitochondrial function with forward-looking functional lab tests that reach beyond centralized medicine's standard blood panels. Interpret lab results using ranges composed of healthy people and stop comparing yourself to a cohort of sick ones.

Time Theft: The Ultimate Inflation

Dr. Kruse made a point that should resonate with every Bitcoiner and anyone who is lately working more hours for a diminishing quality of life: "The biggest inflation on the planet is time theft."

Every day you delay optimizing your health stack is time you'll never get back. Every meal eaten under artificial light, every evening spent staring at screens, every morning missed without proper sun exposure—it's all compounding against your future self.

The Future is Decentralized

These two doctors represent something bigger than a medical breakthrough. They represent a movement toward decentralized medicine—where individual biological sovereignty matters more than institutional profits.

The system wants compliant patients who follow algorithmic protocols. But your biology demands personalized optimization based on your unique genetic variants, your specific environment, your individual health history.

This is about more than personal health. As Dr. Kruse warned, we're facing "an extinction level event" where human cognitive capacity is being systematically degraded. The children growing up in our current environment may lack the intellectual capacity to solve the problems we're creating for them.

Your health stack isn't just about your individual wellness—it's about preserving human consciousness itself.

What Comes Next

The convergence is happening. Quantum biology and microbiome research are merging into protocols that will make conventional medicine look as primitive as financial advisors who still don't recommend any bitcoin in your portfolio.

But early adopters get the advantage. While others are still debating whether diet matters, you can be optimizing light exposure. While others are just taking generic probiotics, you can be using targeted frequencies. While others are treating symptoms, you can be addressing quantum mechanical root causes.

The question isn't whether this approach works—the science is already there. The question is whether you'll be early to the party or late to realize that everything you thought you knew about health was just the beginning of the rabbit hole.

Your biological future is not predetermined. But it is time-sensitive.

The longest-lived civilizations understood something we forgot: health is wealth, and wealth without health is worthless. You've secured your financial future. Now secure your biological future.

The rabbit hole goes deeper than you imagine. And the deeper you go, the more you realize that everything is connected—your light environment, your bacterial allies, your mitochondrial function, your cognitive capacity.

Welcome to the real health revolution. It's not about following another guru's protocol.

It's about understanding your biology well enough to write your own.

Don't trust. Verify.
