Your Body Can Predict The Future (Pop Science Article)


Listen to Your Intuition, Because Your Body Can Predict Future Events Without Conscious Clues
Humans can predict the future when we have some evidence--like clouds and the smell of rain hinting at a storm. But can we anticipate future events without sensory clues?

Pre-cognition might really exist, at least in some limited fashion, according to a new study of studies. Humans can anticipate near-future events even without any evidence presaging the event--and apparently without realizing it. One researcher even hints that quantum behavior might be involved.

It’s not necessarily extra-sensory perception, but “presentiment” can be real, and it may be based on physiological cues that biology still can't explain. It's something we've all experienced to some degree--like when you just know the driver in the lane next to you is coming over, or when you can feel that your boss is coming down the hall and you’d better look busy.

Predicting the near future is actually very common, notes Julia Mossbridge, lead author of the study and research associate in the Visual Perception, Cognition and Neuroscience Laboratory at Northwestern University. If we see dark clouds and smell the sharp musk of rain, we can deduce that a storm is probably coming. It’s the whole where there’s smoke, there’s fire logic. But even without these sensory clues, humans can react preemptively--there’s an unexplained “anticipatory effect,” according to Mossbridge’s meta-analysis.

TAGSScience, Rebecca Boyle, intuition, nervous anticipation, senses, sensory perception“Human physiological measures anticipate what seem to be unpredictable future events by deviating from a baseline before an event occurs,” she and her co-authors write.



The study examines other studies that support this hypothesis, and examine how people respond to stimuli. They find a consistent anticipatory effect in various studies, according to the paper. There are several reasons why people seem to be able to predict what will happen, the authors say--it could be “sensory cueing,” in which an experimenter gives something away; it could be a matter of inaccurate sensor readings; and it could come from the other studies’ data crunching. But that isn’t enough to explain this consistent yet small “anomalous anticipatory activity,” as Mossbridge dubs it.

“We can't explain it using present-day understanding about how biology works; though explanations related to recent quantum biological findings could potentially make sense,” Mossbridge notes in a statement.

Whatever is causing it, she believes the effect is clear--although no one can explain it.

“If this seemingly anomalous anticipatory activity is real, it should be possible to replicate it in multiple independent laboratories,” she and her co-authors write. “The cause of this anticipatory activity, which undoubtedly lies within the realm of natural physical processes (as opposed to supernatural or paranormal ones), remains to be determined.”

The study appears in the journal Frontiers in Perception Science.

Are We Ready For The New Age?

Are We Ready For the New Age?

Sometimes we find ourselves in a blind alley mostly because we don’t listen to our inner self. But what does that mean? The inner self is the personified inner essence of our existence and it represents our inner mind, which is activated when we look inside ourselves and look for solutions to certain problems within us. For when we lean on other people, such solutions are always questionable.

We should try to find within ourselves the power necessary for us to look within and find our own truth inside ourselves. But what is truth? It is the path eluding us when we don’t take care of ourselves, but deal mostly with others and so forget about ourselves and our path or truth. Our truth is our path, liberating us from burdens of our past and showing us the way to a better tomorrow.

When we are able to distinguish between our way and the ways of other people, we are already on the path of truth, setting us free from everything we no longer want in our lives. Inner peace gives us the courage to stand up for ourselves, for when we find our inner calmness, we are strong on the outside as well, and inner peace frees us from all uneasein our minds and places us on the path of inner wisdom, setting us into the centre of our own activities.

Whenever we ask ourselves about our mission in this life, we should look inward, into our own consciousness. Our soul is sending us all the information we want through our feelings, but if we are focused outwardly, there is a great number of disruptive factors, distracting us from recognizing the feelings of our soul.

The soul is a very subtle energy, encompassing all knowledge, feelings, love and comprehension of life itself, and it directs us on the way of wisdom towards the final goal. The soul’s final goal is oneness with everything that exists, and the soul is aware of oneness due to its Divine origin. When we separate ourselves from others due to low emotions, we cannot find love within us, but only what distances us from our true selves.

(NaturalNews) Soy is relatively new to our diets in the U.S. The soybean was first introduced into the U.S. at the turn of the 1900s to be used in the manufacturing of industrial products like oil, plastic and ink. Soy was not even considered a food product and was actually deemed unfit for consumption. After WWII, cultivation of soybeans in the U.S. rose to 140 billion pounds per year. Fast forward another 65 years and soy products in our food and animal feed are found everywhere.

According to the USDA, over 90 percent of soy produced in the US is genetically modified. Numerous studies prove that genetically modified organisms (GMOs) increase allergies, increases resistance to antibiotics, lower thyroid function, cause organ swelling (particularly the pancreas) and even cause cancer. Then there are high levels of glutamate, manganese, fluoride and aluminum along with toxic chemicals that food manufacturers use to process soy that toxify our bodies.

Soy choices - Fermented or not

The history of the ubiquitous soybean begins in China. But the Chinese did not eat unfermented soybean products because they recognized them as quite toxic. In fact, the early uses of soybeans in China were for the nitrogen-rich root systems that worked to rebuild soil with crop rotation - not for eating.

Unfermented soybeans contain large quantities of potent enzyme inhibitors, which block the action of trypsin and other enzymes humans and animals both need to digest protein. You do find some amounts of the same inhibitors in all seeds, grains and legumes, but in soybeans, these inhibitors are highly resistant to traditional cooking and preparation methods. These anti-nutrients in soybeans can cause serious gastric distress, reduced protein digestion and chronic deficiencies in amino acid uptake.

In a very large study by Ralston Purina alongside many other animal studies, diets high in trypsin inhibitors cause enlargement, pathological conditions and cancer of the pancreas.

Unfermented soybeans also contain goitrogen substances that suppress thyroid function along with hemagglutinin, a clot-promoting substance that causes red blood cells to clump together. Both trypsin inhibitors and hemagglutinin are also growth depressant substances. All of these products are neutralized in the fermentation process.

Most soybean products that counterfeit traditional food items like baby formulas, some soy milks and fake meats are made with soy protein that is isolated from the carbohydrate and fatty acid components that naturally occur in the soybean. To produce soy-isolate, soybeans are ground up, cooked to a high temperature, rinsed in chemical solvent, mixed with a caustic solution, acid washed, doused with another caustic alkaline solution and spray-dried at high temperatures to make a high protein powder soy-isolate.

In rat studies, feeding soy protein isolate with even low levels of trypsin inhibitors resulted in reduced weight gain and stunted growth compared to controls.

Precocious puberty and other estrogen-driven problems of soybeans

Soy contains phytoestrogens which mimics true estrogen. In infant soy formula, the phytoestrogens consumed by the baby are equal to four birth control pills every day. With so much soy in a child's diet, early-onset puberty has rocketed the past few decades. Estrogen overload from soybean products are also known to drive breast cancer, infertility, decreased sexual libido and uterine fibroids.

The soy ploy exposed

Advertising trickery has turned soybean products into a multi-billion-dollar industry. A Mayo Clinic study summed up soy benefits: Out of 34 supposed "benefits" of soy products, only three could be proven: Soy is a valid source of protein, lowers cholesterol, and suppresses diarrhea in infants who are intolerant to regular formula.

Although unfermented soybeans can provide a few positive benefits, unless it is fermented, soybean products not only lack the health benefits advertised, but are generally very bad for you. Americans bought the hype, bought the goods, ate the products, and now we are paying for it in both our and our children's health.

Don't be a sheople. Nourish your body with only fermented soy products.

Thoughts of the day...



"Each of us, in the premotor cortex of our brains, has what are called mirror neurons. Such neurons fire either when we perform an action or when we see the same action performed by someone else. There are connections from that part of the brain to the emotional centers. Such neural circuits are believed to be the basis of empathy." --George Lakoff


"We have to go for what we think we're fully capable of, not limit ourselves by what we've been in the past."
