WHY IS DEUTERIUM IMPORTANT?
When a deuterium atom replaces hydrogen, it changes the architecture, molecular dymanics, magnetism and function of the molecule, protein, or nuclei acid it is part of.
This is due to its large kinetic isotope effects (KIE). The difference in size and weight of the deuterium atom changes the speed of any reaction as well as the electromagnetic coherence of the cell, tissue, or organ.
Deuterium has a role in structural proteins, the glycocalix, and connective tissues where it provides strength, form, and magnetism. However, it can have devastating effects when present in excess amounts in the glycocalix, cytoplasm, in moving proteins, or inside the mitochondrial matrix.
Deuterium can also be considered as a growth- and transforming factor for all microbes, including virus hosting cells and viruses, while deuterium is an oncoisotope in mammalian cells with mitochondria.
