It is believed that every organism is “living of light.” That DNA, which is inside of every cell within every organism, not only codes and stores genetic information, but absorbs, stores and emits a low-intensity light called “biophotons.” This theory, proposed by Dr. Fritz Popp, founder of The International Institute of Biophysics, suggests that nature uses low-intensity light to effectively transmit information. Since our planet is fueled by the sun, it is suggested that sunlight, an incoherent light that behaves like a flashlight diffusing and spreading light onto the world, is transformed into coherent light or directed-light inside of organisms where it acts like a laser-pointer that’s able to remain stable over long distances. The result is the idea that inside of every organism there is a light-based communication network which serves to rapidly transmit information between cells for the purpose of maintaining life. Like us, plants are organized by the sun, and Popp suggests that plants store light in their DNA during photosynthesis, which means that when we eat vegetables, for instance, we are not consuming calories but literally “eating sunshine.” Healthy foods, like a healthy body, transmit ultra-weak emissions of coherent light, whereas when there is stress and disease, the body has too much light, losing its necessary ability to constantly improvise and adapt. Today, there are over 40 scientific groups working on biophotons, and with the use of instruments such as CCD cameras that are typically used in astrophysics, images of biophoton emissions have been captured. Currently, researchers are exploring various applications, ranging from biotechnology and agricultural solutions, to food and water quality testing, to non-invasive medical diagnosis. The idea that our body is a light-based quantum coherent network, where biophotons are distributed throughout the body in a range of vibrations that feed each cell its required frequency so that our bodies may function harmoniously, may sound radical. However, what may sound even more incredible is the suggestion that the biophotonic network in our body behaves like an electromagnetic field that connects to the electromagnetic field of the Earth, which serves to produce an optical hologram of every living organism on the planet. Wow. “Here comes the sun.”
