The answer is that the earth is not a closed system. A flood of information-containing free energy reaches the earth’s biosphere in the form of sunlight. Passing through the metabolic pathways of living organisms, this information keeps the organisms far away from thermodynamic equilibrium, which is death. As the thermodynamic information flows through the biosphere, much of it is degraded to heat, but part is converted into cybernetic information and preserved in the intricate structures which are characteristic of life. The principle of natural selection ensures that when this happens, the configurations of matter in living organisms constantly increase in complexity, refinement and statistical improbability. This is the process which we call evolution, or in the case of human society, progress.https://www.ecologise.in/2017/03/21/information-theory-pioneer-john-scales-avery-planets-converging-crises/
In his 1944 book “What is Life” Erwin Schrödinger (one of the main founders of quantum theory) showed that, even at that early date, he was already aware of how life and entropy are related. He wrote: “What is that precious something contained in our food which keeps us from death? That is easily answered. Every process, event, happening, call it what you will; in a word, everything that is going on in Nature means an increase of the entropy of the part of the world where it is going on. Thus a living organism continually increases its entropy, or if you will, produces positive entropy., which is death. It can only keep aloof from it, i.e. alive, by continually drawing from its environment negative entropy…”
“Entropy, taken with a negative sign, is itself a measure of order. Thus the device by which an organism maintains itself at a fairly high level of orderliness (= a fairly low level of entropy) really consists in sucking orderliness from its environment.”
when we we're fixing up the house and doing showings, I treated my relative to stop my bulk batches of rice/lentils or rice/beans. Then I realized the brown rice was gonna go bad. But as far as seasoning - I like curry spice although I'm leery of the salt levels. I'm big on a low salt diet as salt keeps me awake. The original human culture did not eat salt! Salary as a word is from salt - but it counteracts the acidity of grains. I don't think rice is acidity as wheat. Anyway I'm a huge fan of spirulina - as my eyes turn dark green from eating spirulina. That stuff is amazing but the taste is not so good neither the texture. In Africa the season "buns" with spirulina - for sports events. Yeah I guess I am an ascetic now that you mention it.
I dumpstered dived food for ten years and I ate a BULB of organic garlic a day to counteract all the crap food from dumpsters - while I bicycled all year round ten miles a day. My skin turned permanently yellow from all the sulfur in the garlic but Special forces takes hydrogen sulfide injections as it doubles strength and endurance. You know Ellen Page was on a talk show and everyone wondered why her arm pits and hands were orange! She was drinking carrot juice all the time so her skin turned orange. Hilarious. yes - I do appreciate fresh greens - for taste - like arugula is probably a favorite taste of mine.
My 6 year old niece has great sense of taste - complained the pumpkin pie had too much cinnamon and her dad confessed he had taken the top off and accidentally put too much in. Also females smell much better - their sense of smell due to oxytocin levels. Kind of fascinating. So biophotons from fresh food and taste/smell are tied together. Chinese are good on this - Umami is the best. Shiitake shrooms and tomatoes and parmessan cheese - this increases your oxytocin levels naturally from Umami.
The increased glutamate levels also increase oxytocin levels and so you get this warm fuzzy love feeling from the taste of your food. Thanks for reminding me. Umami is a taste that Westerners do not even know about - except the meat/tomato combo with cheese. But melanin in shrooms give it as well. Try Artist Conk tea - the taste seems kind of horrid but I think you'll get umami plus that tea if very medicinal - antiviral, antibacterial - kills cancer. Artist Conk is a very easy to find shelf shroom. You need a big serrated knife to cut it when fresh.
