The study of epigenetics reveals that the environment plays a crucial role in gene expression, challenging the idea that DNA is entirely deterministic. Indeed, only 5 to 10% of genes are actively used, while the rest, long considered "useless," can be influenced by various environmental factors such as emotions, significant events, or external conditions. This dynamic highlights the importance of the interaction between the environment and cellular behavior, where elements such as electromagnetic fields, light, and mechanical stress modify the structure and function of cells.
The concept of tensegrity in osteopathy illustrates this interconnection. Each bodily interaction is perceived as a vibration that travels throughout the organism, connecting cells through intercellular adhesion molecules and a dynamic cytoskeleton. Furthermore, transgenerational inheritance suggests that traumas experienced by our ancestors can influence our own genetic code, manifesting up to three generations later. Finally, understanding the four fundamental forces of life, particularly the electromagnetic force, is essential for grasping the complex interactions within biological systems, where every electric field inevitably generates an electromagnetic field, thus shaping our existence.
