Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

Condition
  • true_cause: Lack of glucose in the brain during trauma. When there isn't enough glucose stored in brain tissue to feed central nervous system, emotional upheaval creates lasting effects. NOT from loss of electrolytes as science believes.
  • Hardened emotional memories: Old traumatic experiences 'harden up' in the tissue of the brain. These hardened memories need to be softened and loosened through new positive experiences and nature-based healing before they can be released.
  • Glucose cost of trauma events: One substantial traumatic event costs the equivalent of buying a new car in glucose reserves. Long-term trauma (abusive relationship, chronic illness) costs the equivalent of buying a house. Each subsequent trauma depletes reserves further, making people more vulnerable.
  • Why some people develop PTSD and others do not: People with ample glucose reserves in brain tissue ('thick skin') can handle more trauma without lasting damage — the glucose acts as a buffer. People with depleted glucose reserves (from poor diet, chronic stress, viral load, or heavy metals consuming glucose) are far more vulnerable to PTSD from the same event.
  • Glucose depletion as true cause: The true physical cause of PTSD is insufficient glucose in the brain's tissue at the time of trauma. Glucose places a protective veil over sensitive brain and neurological tissue. Without enough stored glucose, corrosive adrenaline/cortisol saturates brain tissue, electrical storms occur in the brain from traumatic events, and neurons overheat and permanently burn out, leaving lasting damage.
  • Soul separation: When trauma strikes, the emotional center of the brain receives an electrical shock. This can cause a soul-out-of-body experience — the soul temporarily leaves the body and fear fills the gap. This spiritual dimension of PTSD must also be addressed in healing.
