Atom’s Blog
Atom Bergstrom, born Gosta Ingvar Bergstrom, Jr, is credited as the founder of Sun Sync and the leading expert on a Sun-Centric lifestyle.
Atom’s journey towards health, nutrition, longevity, and meditation goes back to 1955, when he first started reading books by D.C. Jarvis, J.I. Rodale, Carlton Fredericks, Adelle Davis, Aldous Huxley, Paramahansa Yogananda, Swami Prabhavananda, and numerous others. His exposure to the above mentioned authors instigated a deep desire and passion to understand and unlock the secrets to optimal human wellness and longevity.
Atom was inspired by the words of Thomas Jefferson: “School teaches all of the branches, but none of the roots.” He sought the answers to his questions, not in classrooms, but in books, relationships, and life experiences. His quest for true knowledge and wisdom began by studying in hundreds of libraries across the country and evolved by studying with teachers and masters including Swami Adano Ley, Sufi Adnan Sarhan, Rabbi Michael Shapiro, Taoist Master Yun Xiang Tseng, and Fitness Icon Gypsy Boots.
His most significant teacher was Swami Adano Ley with whom he spent 14 years. During this time, he studied a variety of sciences extensively, including the sun centric lifestyle, and ultimately graduated from Adano Ley’s Texas Institute of Reflex Sciences. The knowledge and wisdom he gained studying under a highly evolved swami combined with his emphasis on scientific research & personal experience would soon become the heartbeat of Sun Sync Nutrition.
For the past 40 years, Atom has dedicated his life to the continuous learning and teaching of Sun Sync Nutrition, Time Conscious Eating, Cosmo-Chemistry, Reflexology, Muscle Response Testing, Body Language Analysis, Iris Analysis, Lucid Dreaming, Meditation and many other sciences.
Swami Nitty-Gritty (Adano Ley) was holding a Satsang in Flagstaff, Arizona, in the 1980s. I was in a rear side chair in the darker shadows outside the living room where Nitty-Gritty was seated. “Just how does Adano stay awake all the time?” I brooded, fighting fatigue and sleepiness. “I’ve got to learn how to do…
Each of the 12 2-hour BioPeak Organ Times of the Lung, Large Intestine, Stomach, Spleen-Pancreas, Heart, Small Intestine, Urinary Bladder, Kidney, Circulation-Sex, Triple Heater, Gall Bladder, and Liver meridians is polarized beginning with … (1) one hour of “assimilation” and concluding with (2) one hour of “elimination.” We don’t reallybreathe out of both nostrils at…
Skin transmutation is the “easiest” part of Shape-Shifting 101. We have the same genes – but more refined and evolved – as a CHAMELEON. Lizzy (not her real name) walked into Scandia Health Foods in Carpinteria, California, and asked me (the manager) what I thoughtof high-protein diet products. “Not much,” I replied. Lizzy protested, pointing…
If white skin is transplanted onto black skin (or vice versa), does the transplanted skin change color or stay exactly the same? It changes. WHY??? If you cocainize your arm and expose it to blazing desert sunlight all day, does your skin redden or brown … or … do … something … else. It does…
Swami Nitty-Gritty (Adano Ley) recommended the following formula for bone fusion (after a break) or for bone building … (1) a teaspoon of dolomite powder (for calcium), (2) goat cheese or sheep cheese of the feta variety (for more calcium), (3) a teaspoon of clarified cow butter (for silicon). (4) a dill pickle (for sodium…
To a”timed” body – synchronizing the 12 Organ Meridian Systems – it makes little difference if edible oils are saturated, monounsaturated, or polyunsaturated. An optimally timed body – by way of Time-Conscious Eating or otherwise – can transform all 3 saturation levelsback and forth on demand. According to Barclay Moon Newman, “The New Heavy Nitrogen,”…
Time-Conscious Eating is a FIFO (“first in, first out”) accounting system, not a FILO (“first in, last out”) or a LIFO (“last in, first out”) accounting system. Warehousing food in a FILO system squanders potential energy and immunity. A FILO physiology leads to constipation – including calcium constipation, e.g., arteriosclerosis and calciphylaxis. A LIFO physiology…
Swami Nitty-Gritty (Adano Ley) advised coordinating colors to the days of the week to boost the 7-day lipid immune response by synchronizing the biological CIRCASEPTAN (7-day) RHYTHM with the “social” circaseptan rhythm. This also helps release and integrate traumas associated with specific colors. A trauma is ALWAYS associated with a specific color. Here’s Swami Nitty-Gritty’s…
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) correlates teeth and bone formation with the Kidney Meridian. Then why is oxalic acid a tooth’s best friend and (supposedly) a kidney’s worst enemy? 70-80% of kidney stones are composed of calcium oxalate. Did you read my blog entry “Calcium (Too Much Is Toxic or Abuse)”? By the 1940s, most dentists…
Emanuel Revici, M.D., classified vitamins B-6 and B-12 as catabolic and alkalizing, and vitamins B-1, B-2, niacin, niacinamide, and pantothenic acid as anabolic and acidifying, although these vitamins have no effect on the pH of NORMAL TISSUE. Unlike normal tissue, a lesion remains a lesion simply because it’s incapable of balancing pH values. (A local…
Cortisol keeps you from dying in your sleep at night from sleep apnea by regulating carbon dioxide and potassium. Cortisol also protects against cancer by removing excess potassium from cells when you’re most vulnerable to carcinogenesis from sleep acidification. Meditators make better vegetarians because they’re more acidic than non-meditators. Cortisol is designed to reset the…
Swami Nitty-Gritty (Adano Ley) defined DARSHAN as “a flash fire in your head.” He said, “Darshan is convex vision, leukocytes beaming through your eyes.” Nitty-Gritty compared convex vision, the ability to look THROUGH objects, with concave vision, the ability to look AT objects, saying, “The invisible and visible are in coordination with one another. Seeing…
The Periodic Table of the Elements is a 7-level (chakric alignment) “pyramid of complexity” – from assured stability at the baseupwards to conditional stability at the top. The higher the state of hierarchic organization, the more fragile and vulnerable the evolving structures. Each step up this pyramid (from entropy to syntropy) denotes a … (1)…
When I first encountered Swami Nitty-Gritty (Adano Christopher Ley) in 1975, I had not the slightest clue I was joining a boot camp for Spacefaring Immortals … … although my involvement in the Gurdjieff Work made me aware of the “bliss-stokirno” needed to power trans-space ships like the Karnak across the universe. I’m now an…
Food-based calcium eaten 3 times a day in the correct “growth periods” helps prevent cancer, but … Osteoporosis is NOT a calcium deficiency. Cow bones are not rendered into calcium tablets — they’re rendered into gelatin capsules. Swami Nitty-Gritty (Adano Ley) remarked, “I’ve never seen a limestone bridge.” Porous weak bones have plenty of calcium,…
Amygdalin is a procyanogenic glycoside — also known as vitamin B-17, the “antineoplastic vitamin.” Soaking almonds for a minimum of 6 hours and a maximum of 3 days decomposes traces of amygdalin into the much more chemically active hydrocyanic acid, also known as hydrogen cyanide or prussic acid. Oversoaking almonds beyond 3 days ferments them…
Aging is a DISEASE. Swami Nitty-Grittycalled the deathist attitude “Living to Die.” Biogerontologist Aubrey de Grey calls it the “pro-death trance.” Wake up and smell the juvenile hormone within your own Fountain of Youth thymus gland, oh, deathless one! Ageism and deathism have evolved into a powerful market for both the greeting card industry and…
A frog put through a blender (entropy) is not a living frog (negentropy). Emanuel Revici, M.D. (1896-1998) discovered the hierarchic biological systemization of electropositive entities binding successive electronegative entities (to live inside). A proton is electropositive in relationship to the more electronegative electrons it captures (to live inside). This pattern evolves in complexity and size,…
Infrared Fraunhofer lines can be used to completely neutralize ANY carcinogen with its corresponding anticarcinogen. Col. Dinshah Ghadialiwas on the right trackwith his Spectro-Chrome Therapy, but he concentrated only on single color predominancelimited tothe Fraunhofer region between 4000-7000 angstroms (red to violet) without considering IR or UV frequencies. According to Dwight L. McKee, M.D., Emanuel…
L-arginine assists the muscle response needed for erection via nitric oxide. L-lysine assists the circulatory response needed for erection via oxygen. Now that’s I’ve got your attention … Food-based vitamin C counteracts the herpes virus. Quoting Swami Nitty-Gritty (Adano Ley), “Herpes is a drastic deficiency of vitamin C.” The most potent vitamin C combinationoppositional toherpes…
