Life in the Cell Begins at the Edge of Death, Part 9
Part 9: Coming Full Circle
Think again about the concepts:
- ‘life within the cell begin at the edge of death’
- ‘life itself is sustained by endless reversal of continuous molecular breakdown – aerobically powered by acetic acid burning within your body‘.
The take home message is this: all short chain carbon fuels – made from 4 to 12 carbon atom chains – provide for ‘instant energy’ for living humans. Instant energy is acetic acid. The moment acetic acid is produced… POOF! It disappears and goes up in smoke. This is why you may have heard “coconut oil helps people’s metabolism”; the stuff just breaks down quickly and burns, and there is nothing mysterious about it.
I haven’t told you a thing about long chain fats yet (14 carbon atoms or longer chained fatty acids) – other than right now: they do not easily breakdown into fuel. I only mention this now because this explains why, after death, the human body decomposes breaks down into mostly long chained fatty acids – and we see virtually no short chained fats.
What’s next, going forward
Carbohydrates and glucose do not break down directly or easily into acetic acid like fatty acids do. Carbohydrates or glucose need bacteria to split their ‘carbon atom backbones’ into smaller carbon chunk molecules, which may or may not result in acetic acid.
