Laurent Schwartz: “We cannot understand cancer if we do not understand life”

Nutrition: After The keys to cancer And Methylene bluetwo works linked to your work on cancer, you are publishing a very different book, Choose life. Why this path?

Laurent Schwartz: You can’t understand cancer if you don’t understand life! Understanding life is a scientific emergency because it is the best way to get out of the rut in which our societies have gotten lost.

You detail a hypothesis on the origin of life, which would be linked to a flow of electrons going from the center of the Earth to the atmosphere. What is the connection with the laws of physics that operate inside the cell?

Cancer is an explosion of life with the birth of a new (malignant) being, with its own cells, its own membranes and its own DNA. The birth of cancer is a consequence of the electronic flow that I described in my previous book on methylene blue. For the origin of life, the electronic flow comes from the bowels of the Earth and allows the synthesis of everything that makes up a cell. Life becomes the response to an extremely simple physical phenomenon.

But then if life is linked to a physical phenomenon, there is no intention, no consciousness, at the start?

That’s a real question! Life responds to the laws of physics but the laws of physics are not precise enough to describe it in full. There is an enormous variability which makes life flourish. Faced with the biology of particular cases, physics offers a vision of living things which has the merit of being based on elementary principles; it does not predict any animal in particular, but it predicts animals in their general aspects; as Jean Perrin said, “we do not ask science to predict the position of each pebble, but it must make the presence of each pebble possible.”

In this book you give pride of place to the water molecule, whose role in the functioning of the human body is probably minimized. Why is water so important for health?

99% of the molecules that make up us are water and water is largely forgotten in biology and biochemistry work. The work of Luc Montagnier and especially Marc Henry suggests that water plays a key role in understanding consciousness and biology. One of the goals of this book is to put water back in its rightful, central place.

What is the link between the water of the body and consciousness?

Consciousness is a poorly understood phenomenon. Scientists have done enormous work to map neurons and it hasn’t led to much. There are many cases of humans suffering from hydrocephalus but who have normal psychological development. Their brain is 5% of the norm. It is likely that memory and consciousness are located in water and not just in neurons.

You also talk about the work of Jacques Benveniste on the memory of water.

It’s a taboo and infinitely controversial subject! What is most impressive for the scientist that I am is that this work has never been reproduced, as if the very subject was frightening. There is no experience to refute or confirm them.

You also put forward an original hypothesis on the origin of dreams, linked to the energetics of the cell. At night we dream because the brain is in slow motion?

Yes, at night the mitochondria are inhibited, the temperature drops and the neurons work less quickly, which allows dreams.

I try to trace a logical path through all the phenomena we know, to try to explain them. I think that understanding life and its consequences is the best way to give hope and breathing space to society, which is not doing very well.
