Ancestors
of human species have been living on the planet earth for about six million
years while the modern form of humans only evolved about 200,000 years ago.
Civilization is only about 6000 years old, and industrialization started in the
1800s.World population interconnectedness is enhanced with love and mercy but
disrupted with dishonest, lies and wars. Human species has been feedingon animal fat as the finest and prime source of energy for all human
history. In 1953 Ancel Keys and collaborates illusionized human kind that their
historical source of energy is toxic. Massive health, behavioral as well as
economic consequences followed. Human hearts known historically to be the seat
of spirit, soul and emotions is proven by our group to orchestrate with global
energetic fields. Global consciousness as represented by the planetary
electromagnetic fields is in critical need to be feed with awakening merciful
information. Documents refuting Ancek Keys dogma and reverting humanity to the
truth in their energy source is presented in this review. The harmony we expect
is not only physiological but will affect our global planetary environment for
the wellbeing of human species in earth.
