Prostate Diseases - Men Avoid A Your Worst Nightmare - NuSpecies Metaphysics For Better Health & Longer Life

Written by Aston Farquharson

Life is a journey of cycles—learning, loss, renewal, and transformation—moving through generations the way tides move through societies.

When my father was first diagnosed with prostate issues, and later prostate cancer, I was on the verge of entering law school at Syracuse University. He wanted a lawyer and a doctor in the family. In time, he got his doctors—but he didn’t live to see me become a lawyer. Still, his story and mine are not ultimately about titles or achievements.

They are about love.

Our stories began with a son’s love for his father, and a father’s love for his children.

My father was a preacher who had something to say about just about everything, especially politics. He wasn’t shy about sharing his perspectives with anyone who would listen, and I loved listening. As a child, simply being near him—watching how he relating to people, watching how the community responded to him—was education I didn’t even realize I was receiving.

I followed him everywhere I could. When he surveyed his farms, I went with him. He talked about everything—life, work, people, the future.

And yet, in a way, I didn’t talk much at all.

Severe speech impediment made me an introvert. Most words were imprisoned in my cranium, others trapped beneath my tongue never seeing the voice of day. The judgment that can fall on a child who struggles to speak is not a small thing; it teaches you to become quiet. It teaches you to listen. And perhaps because of that, the two people I trusted most were Papa and Mama—people I could be around without fear of being diminished. He talked about his businesses and the education he desired for his children was no secret. I listened.

And this is where the story becomes more than memory. This is where my love for him becomes part of the origin story of NuSpecies.

When “Early” Still Isn’t Early Enough

Like many of you, at first, I didn’t understand prostate disease at all. My older brothers and sisters largely carried the responsibilities of my father’s diagnosis and care. What I heard—what filtered down to me—was that it had been caught early, and that with surgery and precautionary radiation he would live his long life. I also heard that his urologist was exceptional—a renowned Rhodes Scholar—someone whose confidence made the outcome feel almost guaranteed.

So when the cancer returned, it felt impossible.

Within about a year or so, after treatment, the cancer had come back—and this time it was in many organs. The shock hit all of us. But for me, something else surfaced too: grief I had never truly learned how to carry.

When I was eight years old, I lost my grandmother—a loss too large for my mind to understand. Hers was the first love I remembered besides mother. She was caring, and she was blind, and then she was simply gone. A few years later I lost my favorite dog—another best friend—who followed me everywhere, the way I had followed my father everywhere. At my grandmother’s funeral I hid away in the hills to avoid the pain. And after losing my dog, I vowed never to have another pet, as if avoiding love could protect me from loss.

And now here was Papa.

It took me more than twenty years to finally mourn Papa and Mama in a way that felt complete—through my Eternal Prayers of Dedication to Parents, Grandparents, and Ancestors. Some grief doesn’t arrive on time. Some grief waits until the soul becomes ready to hold it.

From Wall Street and IBM to a Different Calling

The desire to find a way to help—help myself, because I’ve had my own bout with prostate issues and recovery, and helping my brothers and other men understand prostate disease and prostate cancer—pulled me away from the corporate world. I had worked on Wall Street and later at IBM, building a successful professional life.

But the prostate story would not let me go.

When I resigned from IBM, I wrote in my letter that I was going to start a charity for prostate cancer and diabetes—diabetes that killed my mother. The support I received from IBM and Wall Street colleagues—emails, words, encouragement—lit a fire in me. Their belief didn’t create the mission, but it strengthened my resolve to follow it all the way through.

That became the foundation: my legal profession remained, but it moved backstage to a more personal resolve—one driven by family, grief, and the conviction that “this cannot be the premature end of the story for so many.”

Seeing My Father in Every Man

I consulted with thousands of men, face-to-face, and over the phone, where it felt as if I were hearing Papa’s fear again: the anxiety, the depression, the private unraveling that often follows a life-altering diagnosis.

And there were moments—deep, haunting moments—when I heard “Papa” in my spirit, beseeching God to take his life just to end his suffering.

That was when I fully understood something I already respected: medicine is a blessing to humanity. But not everyone benefits equally from the genius of medical treatments. Not everyone has access at the right time. Not everyone’s body responds the same way. And not every form of suffering is addressed by standard protocols, even when the protocols are necessary.

Papa’s Night Groans

After Papa died, I sat down with Mama.

And by the way—Mama didn’t know Papa died of cancer. We elected not to tell her. That is a whole other deep-rooted cultural story, for another time and place.

By then, I had already begun early research at the American Embassy Library—one of my most favorite places on earth as a youngster—another story altogether to be told, where I learned to solve my speech impediment—another of my experiences that first led me to love this nation called the United States of America. In that reading, I learned something simple, practical, and unsettling: urinary frequency, urgency, and difficulty urinating can be signs of prostate disease—and sometimes prostate cancer.

So I later asked Mama at our home if she remembered anything like that.

She paused. Her eyes moved with thought and reflection. Then she said, quietly:

“Yes… your father got up at nights… I heard him groaning sometimes—straining to pee—and when the urine would finally move it was dripping…he stood there long, groaning. It happened a long time before the sickness came.”

Her words stayed with me.

Because I have heard variations of it from too many men: I started getting up more at night. My flow got weak. I had to strain. I felt like I wasn’t emptying. I ignored it.

Like Papa, many men dismiss these early signs. They call it “getting older.” They call it “no big deal.” The call it “I drink water” as though they never had fluids before that. They adapt—until the stunning day when adaptation is no longer possible, and the diagnosis arrives.

It Happened to Me

When it happened to me.

My first eye-opening bout of poor urine flow was painful. It wasn’t just discomfort—it was a warning. It registered in my soul—mortality becoming real. And in the middle of that pain, I remembered Papa’s sickness and Mama’s speaking to me.

I will say it plainly: I did not just feel fear.
I felt terror. It was happening to me. I knew it. I felt it.

My PSA jumped from 1.2 to 8.9 with a UTI. I instantly saw Papa’s failed treatments, as I stood on the edge. And I saw his mortal future woven into mine! I have Papa’s genes!

Thanks to the vast studies and research I had done in physics and chemistry. Thanks to my knowledge of nature’s naturals and energy fields. Thanks to NuSpecies SDAE. With NuSpecies, nutrition-diet, and lifestyles, I got my PSA back down to 2.0 within five months.

It was not cancer. And my prostate volume and density were in normal limits, indicating that I was not high-risk at the time. I still feel I dodged the bullet. I will forever be on that edge. It stays with you.

But the concern doesn’t vanish just because you survive a scare or the edge. You don’t simply “forget where you stood.” Once the mind has stood at that edge, part of it remembers the drop even when your feet step back.

That is one of the hidden realities of prostate disease: even when the body stabilizes, the stress can linger. The condition may even linger unnoticed by medical exams, as I have witnessed many men and others.

What I’ve Seen Behind Closed Doors

To this day, I have not met a man with prostate issues—prostate disease or prostate cancer—in whom I did not see my father.

For over 20 years, I have watched fear live inside men—even the bravest men—the toughest. Well, some were Green Berets, Navy Seals—veterans of our great nation who served on the edge—they’ve lived the edge.

And behind closed doors, in private, what I hear is not always the fear of dying. Sometimes it is the fear of living after treatment: living with changed functions, changed identity, changed intimacy, changed confidence in one regard. Is this new life worth living? Or is there a Nu-Life for me? They asked me. These men were medical doctors. Top engineers in their fields. Lawyers. Scientists… probably most professions. I am not counting. I am showing you the pervasive fear…

Many men quietly believe it may be “the end” in two ways:

  1. They will lose quality of life with their partners.
    They feel almost certain about that—before any treatment even happens.

  2. They will suffer for the rest of their lives from surgery, radiation, chemotherapy, or the long shadow of side effects.

And nearly every man knows a story: someone who died, someone who declined quickly, someone whose suffering became the headline of the family. A father. A neighbor. A coworker. Someone famous in the news.

And if you’re Black, Colin Powell and others became their image—the warning sign. Even the best, richest—is not spared by this “plague” my brothers call it!

This is not abstract. It is personal, communal, and generational—especially in communities where prostate cancer hits harder and outcomes have been historically worse.

And per capita, this burden does fall heavily on men of African descent.

Later, I also saw the same “per capita” reality emerge for women of African descent.

But this chapter begins with one man: my father and his legacy that I carry to the edge.

Aston’s Educational Notes: Signals Worth Respecting

Over roughly a decade of charitable work—and then nearly two additional decades as a natural health practice—I have consulted with thousands of men, many face-to-face and others by phone. Alongside my work, our clinical team—including medical doctors, nurse practitioners, naturopathic doctors, nurses, and other health professionals—has also consulted with and supported thousands more.

The NuSpecian community has shared their experiences in thousands of testimonials, posted on our websites and across other publicly available platforms on the World Wide Web, including our YouTube channel. What you see publicly is only a visible portion of a much larger body of work spanning more than two decades.

This is not medical advice. It is education rooted in lived experience from thousands of men with prostate diseases and prostate cancer. Still, there are practical truths men deserve to hear clearly:

  • If urinary patterns change, pay attention.

  • If urinary urgency comes, pay attention.

  • If BPH comes, pay attention.

  • If PSA rises, pay attention.

  • If prostatitis/UTI comes, pay attention.

  • If there’s family history, pay attention.

  • If symptoms persist, don’t normalize or ignore them.

  • If fear rises, don’t let fear become denial.

If you or someone you love experiences ongoing urinary changes—frequency, urgency, weak stream, straining, waking repeatedly at night—bring it to a clinician. “Maybe it’s nothing” is not a strategy. It’s a gamble.

And if you are in a higher-risk group—especially Black/African American men, or men with a strong family history—treat early conversations and appropriate screening as an act of self-respect, not panic.

When Fear Rises, Coherence Matters

One of the most important lessons I’ve learned is this: fear can be informative, but it can also be paralyzing. This is what men say to me:

“She’s going to leave” or “I will lose her”. “I would rather die than not been able to perform” or “I can’t live like that” without a prostate. “Help me”.

“I was taking the medications…they didn’t work” after months or years.

They really expected the medication to fix their enlarged prostate and prevent the cancer. They were shocked at the diagnosis…some, terror in their eyes.

They ignored the frequent urination, the urgency, the dripping that wet their pants. 

They believe they are drinking fluids leading to the frequent urination. 

They are not remembering that not too long before, they would drink a gallon of fluids and not rush to urinate.

Their interrupted sleep by frequent and urgent urination disrupted their work.

They know something is wrong but do not know what exactly is wrong, so they do not take actions.

Except for those with cancer that had no symptoms like the above, their sickness was probably avoidable with corrected actions.

Their deaths were probably premature.

There is a prevailing human disease of procrastination and inaction leading to unintended consequences.

A Prostate Story Through Medical & NuSpecies Lens

In the final analysis, the thousands of clients I have worked with—face-to-face for more than two decades, and later virtually—have been my greatest teachers. They taught me, through lived evidence, what the body requires to support itself in the fight against this disease.

Not just through conversations. Through records.

Their doctors’ notes. Their laboratory reports. Imaging summaries. Medication lists. Work histories. Residential histories. Medical histories. I studied patterns across time—symptoms that repeated, outcomes that diverged, choices that helped, and choices that harmed. I read what the physicians diagnosed, then compared those diagnoses with the deeper context of each person’s life. Over and over, those realities pointed to a single conclusion: people were suffering, and much of that suffering was predictable—sometimes even preventable—if we had the courage to pay attention earlier.

That long, sobering education inevitably led to the founding of NuSpecies—not as a money project, but as a response to the pervasive suffering and the indignities in quality of life that so often follow prostate disease and prostate cancer treatment. I have seen what can happen to men without a prostate: the physical aftermath, the emotional aftermath, and the quiet strain that touches identity, intimacy, partnership, and dignity. Too often, this story lands on men in the prime of their lives.

NuSpecies Formulas and Products

What to expect from NuSpecies Products and Protocols?

Not every prostate issue is the same. Some are early. Some are late. some are invasive. Some are fast-growing or aggressive. Some are clearly coming because of density and volume of the prostate.

The potency of our protocols, our formulas, our products changed with every new discovery in science and in our NuSpecies practice with men.

Our high-potency regime packages were developed about 15 years ago. As their potency grows with added nutrients because of the inclusion of primordial others like amino acids, fatty acids, omegas. The rebuilding now regimes have nutrients spanning the ages of human existence. The regimes become our Super Ideal Protocols, the Ideal Protocols with Options based on your “needs” and “budgets”.

After over 20 years working with men with prostate diseases and prostate cancer. We learn how to support their body’s resilience to fight for itself. We humbly move the regimes Protocols to also cover from primordial to ancient nutrients and scientific breath of life’s journey. 

And after about 3 decades of studies and research work, our protocols of formulas and products now have phytonutrients and phytochemicals to support health. The body can now make balanced biochemicals to stabilize its own hormones, enzymes, and proteins.

Our Super-Ideal and Ideal Protocols are our best opportunities for men to invest in their health. Within 30 to 90 days, NuSpecian men do their labs to track and trend results. We look at PSA but more so improved prostate “density” and “volume”. NuSpecian men see wide range of other health benefits and from our Ideal Options. We also offer potent but smaller dosages based on budgets and needs—a longer period of support is required for these options protocols. We offer everyone a chance to heal by meeting them at the boundary of their needs and budgets.

Note: some issues are so pervasive and deep-rooted, here we do our dignified best to help you to support your body and we are honest with you about the outlook for you. Even the worst of the worse benefits from supplemental support to the body. Everyone deserves to live better, live longer, live to the end with dignity and without suffering, if at all possible.

We work with your doctors’ labs to show results or progress. If we need earlier tests results, we ask you to do them every 30-day, 60-day, 90-day.

Evidence of proof of improvements

NuSpecies work with your medical practitioners or doctors by utilizing their medical reports and notes and will interact directly with them as necessary to ensure your best health.

Primordial nutrients in whole food ingredients are mandatory. NuSpecies offer them in our plants to non-vegan formulas and products with fatty acids with omegas, amino acids are mandatory for ideal health support.

 

Science as NuSpecies Backbone, Humility as Our Compass

My research in chemistry and physics became part of the backbone of NuSpecies and later NuSpecianism-SDAE. Science matters. It is essential. But I also learned that the connection between biology and the deepest foundation of science is not as simple—or as precise—as many assume.

Even with our highest veneration of science, we still face a profound humility: in cosmology we often note that only a small portion—about 5%—of the universe is “ordinary matter” we can directly observe, while the rest is attributed to dark matter and dark energy—real effects we infer but do not fully understand. That’s human humility.

To me, that is not a weakness. It is a reminder: knowledge is powerful, and also unfinished.

So my study widened. Because more and more men—and others—needed faster help to pull back from the edge.

My research journey spans more than thirty years. It stretches from questions about the formation of the universe—from supposed singularities—to ancient stars that forged the atoms that became ingredients for life on Earth. It reaches into the formation of the first molecules of life, from primordial chemistry to the long history of human practices around healing.

It includes energy fields people describe as spirituality—God-based and non-God-based. It moves through history, medicine, and returns again and again to physics. Physics matters!

Because everything, in the end, keeps circling back to the physics of life. And that is, our body is over 99% all energy fields, and only less than 1% matter! This is proven science. This is proven physics. This is proven mathematics. This is the source of NuSpecies SDAE mission.

Now let NuSpecies help you to learn how to live better and longer, with the humility and guidance of science.

The Energies of Living

What does the body require?

Energy—at every level. DNA, genes, cells, organs, tissues. At every level of life energy flow matters.

The energies our bodies need at every cellular vibration and respiration. The entangled fabric of molecules that supports life—whether those molecules are in the foods we eat or within the body itself. The body is not only chemistry; it is also rhythm, signaling, coherence, and exchange. And the person is not only a body; the person is also meaning, memory, faith, fear, and love.

That is the space where my story became a mission.

And that is the space where NuSpecies—and SDAE as a guiding framework—found its footing: in the recognition that healing is never only one thing. It is biological and human, measurable and lived, physical and deeply personal—often unfolding through cycles across generations. Like my father’s and family members’ bouts with prostate as an “emergent” needing attention. Like NuSpecians’ family history spanning generations—like an ancestral legacy.

And per capita, the burden falls heavily on men of African descent.

Later, I also saw the same “per capita” reality emerge for women of African descent in other health struggles—another chapter of inequity and suffering that deserves its own careful telling.

But this chapter begins with one man: my father and his legacy that I carry to the edge.

Primordial Nutrients and the NuSpecies SDAE View of Health

What To Do?

SDAE NuSpecies Metaphysics.

NuSpecies is our products and formulas.

SDAE intertwines our mental, physical, and spiritual health. SDAE is the universal energy field internal and external to our bodies. Singularity is the “dual-aspects” matter/energy and the spirit forces that gave birth to our universe, that neither mathematics nor physics can measure. That’s the singularity, not referring black holes here.

What is SDAE in the biological sense?

In the SDAE lens—Singularity Dual-Aspects Emergence—health is never “only” one thing. It is simultaneously:

  • the outer aspect: molecules, cells, pathways, measurable physiology

  • the inner aspect: energy fields, coherence, stress, meaning, discipline, spirit, lived experience

And from these two aspects, something new can emerge over time: resilience, clarity, energy, and a body better able to maintain balance.

Nutrient Matters

Primordial nutrients like CHNOPS and other values predated earth’s existence—more than 5 billion years ago. Some came to earth from asteroids and comets. Some come from soups of the ocean floors. This is why I venerate science—physics. That is why primordial nutrients from whole-food ingredients matter. This is not marketing poetry—they are the literal building materials of biology. In a way, they are “star-born”: the atoms and mineral elements that existed long before life appeared, later arranged into the chemistry that became breath, blood, tissue, and then thought emerged. Stars are our ancestors—in their atomic gifts to us!

NuSpecies products and formulations—whether plant-forward, non-vegan, or hybrid—focus on foundational nutrition: essential and conditionally essential nutrients that support the body’s own ability to build, repair, and regulate.

Foundational building blocks above and beyond CHNOPS

For ideal whole-body support, your body relies on:

  • Amino acids (the “letters” used to write proteins)

  • Fatty acids including omega fatty acids (the “oils” that form membranes and help regulate signaling)

  • Pentose sugars (key structural backbones used in fundamental biological processes)

In SDAE terms, these are the outer-language of life: the alphabet and architecture your physiology uses every day to maintain form and function and access energy fields of nature.

Maintain or Rebuild the Systems That Build You

Health is not only about adding something new. Often, it is about supporting the systems that make you, so they can rebuild to do what they were designed to do: digest, metabolize, repair, clean, regenerate, and adapt.

Think of it this way:

  • Singularity: the moment you choose what consistently enters your body

  • Dual aspects: the body’s chemistry plus the mind’s coherence around that chemistry

  • Emergence: the long-term outcome that quietly becomes your new “normal”—better and longer life.

NuSpecies emphasizes rebuilding and maintaining body systems in a way that supports the body’s capacity to generate and regulate its own natural and key compounds—without unnecessary exposure to undesirable additives or harsh compounds.

Primordial and Evolved Nutrients

Some of what the body needs is ancient—elements and simple compounds that existed billions of years before biology. Some nutrients came to earth from stars, asteroids and comets millions of years ago. Other nutrients evolved alongside life and complex organisms. All categories matter. All categories are needed. NuSpecies SDAE uses them in our products and formulas.

NuSpecies formulas and products also carry the special ingredients with phytonutrients your body needs to support itself for good health. This approach supports the body’s ability to manage its oxygen-to-energy relationship—how efficiently the body uses oxygen, substrates, and cellular processes to produce usable energy—while prioritizing nutritional integrity and minimizing avoidable burdens like ROS or inflammation.

In SDAE metaphor, this is the body learning to “burn clean”: not as a mystical claim, but as a disciplined relationship between inputs of nature’s natural energy and nutrients, processing, and outputs.

Diets and Lifestyles

Nourishment as coherence, not punishment

Rebuilding begins at home—through consistent, repeatable choices.

NuSpecies Diet and Lifestyle guidance centers on using the right foods to support:

  • digestion that feels harmonized, not inflamed

  • metabolism that stabilizes, rather than punishes your reserves

  • energy regulation that supports daily function and recovery

In SDAE terms, diet is not just nutrition; it is ritual—a repeated act that aligns the inner and outer aspects of health. When the inner world is chaotic, the outer choices often become chaotic. When the inner world is coherent, the outer choices tend to follow.

Exercise Programs

Movement is law—and medicine in motion

Rebuilding also happens through movement, even at home, even with limitations. If you are handicapped, movement still counts. Movement is movement.

In the language of nature, the motion of mass is fundamental. In the language of the body, movement supports:

  • circulation and tissue nourishment

  • lymphatic flow (a key part of the body’s cleanup and immune transport systems)

  • stress regulation and nervous-system balance

  • cellular energy metabolism (including ATP-related processes)

SDAE metaphor: movement is how we “prove” to the body that we are still alive on purpose. It is an act of order against entropy—small daily choices that tell the system: organize, adapt, strengthen.

Even gentle motion can be a vote for life.

Clean Living: Detox, Cleanse, Purify

Support the body’s natural clearing pathways

“Detox” doesn’t need to be extreme to be meaningful. The body already has elegant systems for clearing and processing—especially through the liver, kidneys, gut, skin, and lungs. The goal is to support those pathways, not overwhelm them.

A practical, grounded approach to cleansing and purification can include:

  • hydration and mineral balance

  • fiber-rich whole foods to support regular elimination

  • reducing avoidable exposures (smoke, excessive alcohol, unnecessary chemicals)

  • sleep and recovery to support hormonal and immune regulation

  • movement to support circulation and clearance

This can help the body reduce internal burdens that may contribute to fatigue, sluggish recovery, and metabolic stress.

A note on acidity and “alkalinity”

The body tightly regulates blood pH within a narrow range. So the goal is not to chase a simplistic “alkaline” label, but to support metabolic balance, inflammation regulation, and healthy oxygen/energy dynamics through foundational habits: whole foods, hydration, movement, and recovery.

In SDAE terms: don’t chase a slogan—chase coherence.

Energy Field Matters

Quantum in Biological Systems: An SDAE Metaphor for the Living Body

To speak honestly about the fabrics that make up the tapestry of the human body, we often need metaphors—because life is not just a collection of parts. It is a pattern: a system of balance, stability, adaptation, and coherence; cycles unfolding over time.

A star is one of the most enduring examples we know of a stable, coherent system. It survives because it holds a dynamic equilibrium: an outward pressure from energy released by fusion balanced against the inward pull of gravity. That balance is not stillness—it is living tension, sustained order, continuous adjustment.

In that sense, a star becomes a powerful SDAE metaphor for the body. It is our greatest proven teacher of longevity!

Your body, too, lives by equilibrium: not between gravity and radiation, but between opposing forces such as inflammation and repair, stress and recovery, breakdown and renewal, oxygen demand and energy supply. Health is not “perfection.” Health is the ability to self-correct—to return toward balance.

And if we reach even further for metaphor, a black hole can symbolize endurance and mystery—the way some realities remain present and powerful even when we cannot fully “see” them. In astrophysics, black holes are not literally eternal, but their lifetimes can be unimaginably long. As metaphor, they remind us that nature often holds depths beyond our current understanding. This is no more true than in human health and longevity.

Spacetime, Quantum Fields, and the Body as a Living Geometry

NuSpecies SDAE Science

If the universe is a living architecture, spacetime is its geometry—the curved fabric that shapes motion, structure, and time itself. And within that geometry, physics describes a world of fields—vibrating, interacting, exchanging energy and information.

Here is the metaphysical, theoretical image:

  • Spacetime is the canvas—the curvature of reality.

  • Quantum fields are the threads—vibrations woven through the canvas.

  • Entanglement is the weaving—the invisible linkage that makes separated things behave as if they are still one pattern.

Some theories go even further—like string-based models that imagine deeper structures beneath the fields. Those ideas remain speculative, but they serve as a useful SDAE reminder: reality may have layers beneath what we can currently measure, and humility is part of intelligence.

Cosmology also teaches another humbling lesson: only about 5% of the universe is ordinary matter—the kind we can see and touch. The rest is attributed to dark matter and dark energy—real in effect, not fully understood in essence. We don’t “see” them directly, but we infer them because the universe behaves as though they are there.

That is not weakness. That is an invitation to know more: the unseen still shapes the seen.

And this is where the SDAE philosophy becomes practical.

SDAE in the Body: Dual Aspects, but One Life

As our observable universe, NuSpecies SDAE frames the human body as a “dual-aspect emergence”:

  1. The outer aspect: chemistry, cells, tissues, organs, biomarkers—everything measurable.

  2. The inner aspect: energy fields: coherence, stress, meaning, belief, purpose—everything lived.

Neither aspect is imaginary. Both are real. And what we call “health” often emerges from how well these two aspects align.

The body is not just matter sitting still. It is matter in motion, guided by energy—breathing, circulation, nerve signaling, metabolism, repair. Even at the most basic level, we are not solid the way we feel solid: atoms are mostly space, and what we call “substance” is organized structure, held together by forces and interactions.

And at the foundational level of physics, matter and energy are not enemies—they are relatives. Mass and energy are equivalent in modern physics: they can transform under the right conditions. That isn’t metaphysics; it’s established science. What becomes metaphysical is the lived implication:

You are not only made of things.
You are also made of process with energy fields.

That is why health cannot be reduced to one measurement, one symptom, or one protocol. The body is a living geometry—constantly adjusting to keep the whole system coherent.

The cleaner the inner dimensions the better the interaction and coherence with the outer dimensions of universal energy fields of the entire universe. The better our own dark energy and dark matter with dark DNA can be activated in support of better health and longer life. This is a virtual unknown but a reality that’s there!

Live Like a Star: Coherence, Clean Inputs, Sustainable Power

So what does it mean—practically—to “live like a star”?

It means honoring the body’s need for balanced inputs and stable rhythms, so it can sustain its own internal equilibrium without being pushed into chronic strain.

NuSpecies emphasizes primordial, whole-food nutrients—the deep nutritional foundations that existed long before human life: minerals, plant compounds, essential fats, amino acids, and the molecular precursors that biology uses to build, repair, and regulate itself.

Foundational structures the body relies on

To support the architecture of life, the body depends on key building blocks, including:

  • Amino acids (for proteins, enzymes, repair, signaling)

  • Fatty acids, including omega fatty acids (for membranes, brain and nerve integrity, cellular communication)

  • Pentose sugars (important structural backbones in fundamental biological systems)

In SDAE terms, these are the “alphabet and grammar” of your biology: the materials your body uses to keep writing the story of you.

Primordial nutrition and metabolic balance

NuSpecies also emphasizes supporting the body’s ability to maintain healthy oxygen-to-energy dynamics—how efficiently the system produces usable energy and recovers—while minimizing avoidable burdens from harsh additives and toxic exposures.

Because coherence is not only spiritual.
Coherence is also biochemical.

Nature’s Fields: The Real Energies That Shape Biology

When NuSpecies speaks of “nature’s energy fields,” SDAE invites a grounded reading: the body is shaped by real forces—light and darkness (circadian rhythm), gravity and movement (mechanics), temperature gradients, electromagnetic signaling in nerves and tissues, and the constant exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

You don’t need fantasy to be amazed. The real world is already profound.

Your body must be prepared by the right physical nutrient dimension to receive the spiritual-mental dimension of energy fields. DNA and genes can create energy to protect themselves. Mitochondrial galaxies can create energy to protect themselves. Every cell or tissue can create energy to protect itself. But our body must have the nutrients to do so. To stay balanced. To stay stable. To stay coherent. To resonate with good health and better life.

NuSpecies’ goal is to use primordial ingredients of nature’s naturals to assist the body in returning toward coherence—supporting the organism’s capacity to repair, adapt, and sustain itself.

Because in the SDAE view, health is not a single event.

Health is an emergence—
born from balanced structure (the outer aspect)
and coherent living (the inner aspect),
held steady over time—
like a star.

Live Like a Star—the Metaphor

An SDAE Metaphor for Mitochondria, Energy, and Longevity

Live like a star doesn’t mean “burn yourself out.” It means what a star actually does to endure: it sustains coherence.

A star survives through a living balance—an outward radiance held in equilibrium with inward gravity. It is not stillness. It is stability in motion. And in the SDAE view—Singularity • Dual-Aspects • Emergence—that is the best metaphor for the human body:

  • Singularity: the moment you choose a pattern (nutrition, movement, recovery) that changes your future

  • Dual-Aspects: the outer biology (cells, molecules) and the inner life (meaning, stress, spirit) shaping each other

  • Emergence: resilience, vitality, and healing capacity arising over time from that alignment.

A Cell is Like a Star

A cell is a living system that must keep itself ordered, powered, and responsive. It must “shine” to remain alive.

A Cell Has Many Stars

Inside each cell, mitochondria function like tiny suns—scattered throughout the cytoplasmic universe—each one converting fuel and oxygen into usable energy for the cellular ecosystem. They don’t glow visibly, but they radiate function: movement, repair, immunity, and regeneration.

Cells and Stars Must Both Shine to Endure

Stars persist by balancing forces. Cells persist by balancing chemistry and energy—especially the delicate relationship between oxygen, fuel, and ATP.

Your Inner Cosmos: Mitochondria as a Starfield

The number of mitochondria in a human body is astronomical—an inner sky that’s hard to comprehend. Estimates vary because different tissues have very different energy demands, but the principle is clear:

  • Each cell can be a galaxy of mitochondria, ranging from very few to hundreds of thousands in high-energy cells.

  • A liver cell may contain roughly 1,000–2,000 mitochondria.

  • A human egg cell can contain hundreds of thousands (often cited in the 100,000–600,000 range), because it must power early development.

  • The human body has tens of trillions of cells, and many (not all) rely on mitochondria for energy.

  • The total number of mitochondria across the body is commonly discussed in the range of tens of quadrillions (and in some estimates higher), depending on assumptions.

Whether you count stars in the sky or mitochondria in the body, the meaning is the same: you are built like a universe—organized, powered, and alive through coherence.

From Singularity to Cell: A Cosmic Origin Story in SDAE Language

Here is the “cosmic-to-cellular” arc—told as an SDAE metaphor of emergence:

= Quantum Singularity / Primordial Energy
A beginning so dense with potential that it becomes a “seed” of reality.

= Space-Time Emerges
A geometry is born—structure appears where there was none.

= Stars Ignite
Cosmic furnaces form—sustained by balance, stability, and coherence.

= Elements Form and Scatter
Stars forge and distribute the elemental foundations of life—CHNOPS (Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulfur) among them—plus minerals and trace elements that biology later learns to use.

= Chemistry Learns to Organize
Under heat, pressure, water, lightning, and time, molecules begin forming patterns—preludes to biology.

= Early Life Appears
Microbial life emerges—simple, resilient, ancient.

= Endosymbiosis: The Mitochondrial Covenant
A pivotal evolutionary “singularity” occurs: an ancient host cell and a bacterium form a cooperative union. The bacterium becomes the mitochondrion—a power plant inside the cell, enabling the energetic leap into complex life.

SDAE teaching: evolution isn’t only competition—it’s also coherence through cooperation. Emergence is often born from relationship.

Entropy, Aging, and the Work of Staying Ordered

Every biological process produces entropy—wear, disorder, and drift. Over time, that entropy accumulates:

  • misfolded proteins

  • damaged DNA

  • lipid oxidation and cellular residue

  • mitochondrial inefficiency

  • inflammatory imbalance

Aging, in this view, is not a curse—it is the gradual cost of running a high-order system in a universe that constantly tends toward disorder.

So longevity is not “escaping entropy.” Longevity is slowing the drift by consistently restoring order—biologically and psychologically.

This is why the star metaphor matters: a star must continuously balance forces to stay luminous. A body must continuously balance inputs, outputs, stress, and recovery to remain vibrant.

ATP Thermodynamic Harmony: The Body’s Lantern

ATP is often called the “energy currency” of the cell. In practical terms: mitochondria help generate ATP so your cells can do their work—repair, signal, defend, and regenerate.

In SDAE metaphysics, ATP is the outer light—the measurable glow of biological function. But there is also an inner light: the coherence of the nervous system, the will to endure, the meaning that stabilizes a life under stress.

Dual-aspect truth:

  • You can’t separate energy from biology.

  • And you can’t separate biology from the lived inner world that shapes it.

Feed Your Stars: Primordial Nutrition and Cellular Coherence

Primordial nutrients—whole-food, foundational ingredients—support the body’s ability to rebuild and maintain its systems. In SDAE language: they help restore the conditions for coherence so your inner starfield can keep shining.

= Primordial — Maintain & rebuild mitochondrial function
Support the systems that generate and regulate ATP.

= Primordial — Maintain CHNOPS foundations
Support the elemental and molecular building blocks life depends upon.

= Primordial — Maintain the core structures of life

  • Amino acids (protein structure, enzymes, repair)

  • Fatty acids including omega fatty acids (membranes, signaling, nervous system integrity)

  • Sugars and structural backbones used throughout metabolism and cellular processes

  • Vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients that support cellular regulation

SDAE metaphor: nutrition is not just “fuel.” It is instruction—information delivered to biology.

"The Repair Cathedral: DNA, Genes, and the Architecture of Renewal"

Nature’s way is not perfection—it is rebuilding.

Inside the nucleus, the body maintains a living library:

  • DNA carries the code

  • Genes are functional segments within that code

  • Histones are proteins DNA wraps around (like thread on spools)

  • Chromatin is DNA + histones (how tightly or loosely your genetic book is opened)

  • Polymerase and repair enzymes help copy and repair DNA

  • Telomeres cap chromosome ends and are maintained by specialized mechanisms (including telomerase in certain contexts)

In SDAE terms: your biology is not only matter—it is a self-repairing story. The healthier the conditions, the more faithfully the story can be maintained.

“Dark” Genome, Seen and Unseen: An SDAE Mirror of Dark Matter

Much of the genome does not code for proteins, yet it plays important regulatory roles. Some genomic regions are also difficult to sequence or interpret. People sometimes use “dark genome” as a metaphor—by analogy to “dark matter”—to describe what is real in effect but not fully understood in detail.

SDAE metaphor: the unseen shapes the seen.
In the body, what you don’t notice—sleep debt, stress physiology, inflammation, micro-nutrient gaps—can still steer outcomes.

Ancient Viral Echoes: When Old Code Becomes New Defense

The human genome contains remnants of ancient viruses (endogenous retroviral sequences). Modern science has shown that some of these sequences have been repurposed over evolution—sometimes contributing to normal biology, sometimes influencing immune behavior. It’s an active area of research, with both promise and complexity.

SDAE framing: emergence can arise from what once looked like “foreign” or “dead.” Biology recycles history.

Thermogenesis, Motion of Mass, and “Burning Entropy”

= Thermogenesis
Digesting and metabolizing food takes energy. Protein-rich foods tend to have a higher thermic effect than fats or carbohydrates—meaning the body expends more energy processing them.

= Motion of Mass — Movement is medicine in motion
Movement supports:

  • circulation and oxygen delivery

  • lymphatic flow and metabolic clearance

  • nervous system regulation and stress release

  • mitochondrial signaling and metabolic resilience

Even small movement matters. If you’re limited physically, gentle motion still counts. Any movement is a vote for coherence.

SDAE metaphor: movement is how you tell the body, “Organize. Adapt. Shine.”

Clean Living: Support the Body’s Natural Clearing Systems

Rather than extreme “detox” claims, a grounded approach is to support the body’s built-in clearing pathways—liver, kidneys, gut, skin, lungs—through consistent habits:

  • hydration

  • fiber-rich whole foods

  • sleep and recovery

  • reduced avoidable exposures

  • movement and circulation support

Some disease processes, including tumor environments, can involve hypoxia (low oxygen) and altered metabolic chemistry. But the body tightly regulates blood pH, so the goal isn’t chasing simplistic “alkaline” slogans—it’s supporting metabolic balance, immune resilience, and recovery capacity.

Closing: Live Like a Star

Live like a star means:

  • build your life around coherence

  • feed your inner starfield (mitochondria) with foundational nutrition

  • move to preserve order against entropy

  • recover deeply to repair what daily life wears down

  • align the inner world (meaning, spirit, discipline) with the outer world (biology)

In the SDAE view, health is not a single event.
Health is an emergence—a luminous life built from steady balance, day after day—
like a star.

  • Hand holding (weekly check ins - reminders to book lab appointment)

  • Symptoms checklist

  • Journey doc

  • Long-term benefit of doing the ideal package now - don’t waste time and money trying all kinds of things and then come back to us three years from now with a worse prostate issue. (Reference a story from a client).

 

Extra Notes:

The right protocol encompasses the universal nutrients and energy fields. Something like NuSpecies SDAE: mental-spiritual and physical balance with stability and coherence at every biological level. When one level is warp, the whole space of the body is warped!

This is one reason NuSpecies SDAE matters in this chapter: because prostate disease is not only a biological event. It is also a human event—psychological, relational, spiritual, and existential. SDAE gives language to the “two aspects” unfolding at once: the outer medical reality and the inner lived 99% reality of energy fields—both real, both consequential, both needing attention.

When Men’s Suffering Brought Women Into the Room

My first ten years of charitable work focused on helping men with prostate disease. But the work didn’t remain “men-only” for long—because life doesn’t separate suffering by neat categories.

The men came to me, and then their wives came. Their daughters came. Their loved ones came. They came knowing I wasn’t even a medical doctor!

The men were suffering through the plague of prostate disease, and at the same time the women were being maimed in their own way—through repeated myomectomies and hysterectomies, through the heavy burden of uterine, breasts, thyroid, menopause, ovarian, and autoimmune diseases, through procedures that sometimes felt less like healing and more like surrendering pieces of themselves.

That is how men’s and women’s health became intertwined in my work—and that is how the foundations of NuSpecies took shape. And that is how the NuSpecies SDAE origin story emerges.

SDAE—The Singularity Dual-Aspects Emergence—speaks in two dimensions at once: an outer physical dimension of 1% matter and an inner dimension of 99% energy fields (with experience and meaning). It reminds us that health crises are lived in both places at the same time. Others see the 1% physical, NuSpecies SDAE learns that the 99% non-physical is more critical for better health and longer life.

NuSpecies SDAE as the Framework: The Outer Facts and the Inner Experience

This is where SDAE belongs in the conversation—not as “proof,” not as a replacement for medicine, and not as a medical claim—but as a language and education for the full human reality of illness.

SDAE—The Singularity Dual-Aspects Emergence—speaks in two dimensions at once: an outer physical dimension and an inner dimension of experience and meaning. It reminds us that health crises are lived in both places at the same time.

In prostate disease, the outer is clear:

  • symptoms

  • lab values

  • imaging

  • biopsies

  • staging

  • treatment plans

  • side effects

  • recovery timelines

But the inner is just as real:

  • many energy fields.

  • fear and anticipation

  • shame and silence

  • identity and masculinity

  • intimacy and partnership
    dignity and meaning

  • the sense of “What happens to my life now?”

SDAE does not ask us to abandon science. It asks us to stop pretending the human being is only a lab report.

And in my world—my lived experience with clients—some of the deepest suffering has not been the diagnosis alone. It has been the loneliness of carrying the diagnosis, the silence that follows, and the private dread that no one knows how to name.

SDAE insists: name it.
Not to dramatize it—
but to stop leaving people alone inside it.

SDAE offers a simple anchor here: when the inner world becomes chaotic, return to coherence—return to breath, presence, dignity. SDAE language emphasizes balance, coherence, compassion, and the reality of the inner world—standing beside science with humility, not competing with it.

Sometimes the bravest thing a man can do is not “be fearless.”
It is to be honest enough to say:

“I am afraid—and I will still take the next right step.”

It is only ever too late when all is lost.

 


 

Why I Keep Looking for Help

What pushes me to keep searching for possible help for prostate disease and prostate cancer is not theory. It is lived reality:

  • those who died,

  • those who survived,

  • and those who might still be alive if they had done—or had been able to do—what they were advised to do.

In the end, certainty is an illusion of sorts.

But there are still choices. There is still action. There is still dignity. There is still time—sometimes more than people think.

And if this chapter gives anyone one gift, let it be this:

Don’t ignore what the body whispers—
and don’t dismiss what the heart screams.

Because both are real.
Both are part of the story.
 And both deserve a response.

A Responsible Health Boundary

These principles are educational and supportive, not a replacement for medical care. If someone is facing prostate disease, cancer, or any serious condition, the SDAE frame encourages both aspects to be honored:

  • Outer aspect: medical evaluation, evidence-based treatment, qualified clinicians

  • Inner aspect: meaning, nervous-system regulation, faith/spirit, family support, lifestyle discipline

When the two are aligned, what can emerge is not a guarantee—but a stronger, steadier way of living through the reality of the condition.
