Cohen et al. (2025) advance a powerful reconceptualization of health as an intrinsic, field-like property emerging from the interaction of energy, communication, and structure. While their treatment of energy and communication as organism-level integrated variables is compelling, their conclusion that biological structure can only be represented as a “laundry list” of independent components introduces a conceptual asymmetry that is no longer supported by contemporary biophysics. Here, I argue that biological structure is best understood as a continuous, dynamic field governed by multiscale tensegrity and cytoskeletal electromechanics, with microtubules serving as active oscillatory mediators between structural geometry, metabolic energy, and bioelectric communication. When structure is treated as a field rather than an inventory, global structural integrity becomes theoretically definable and empirically measurable. This reframing restores full triadic symmetry to the intrinsic health framework and strengthens its physical grounding across biological scales.

The Tubular Architecture of Coherence: Nested Bio-Waveguides and the Maintenance of Multiscale Biological Order | ChatGPT5 & NotebookLM
Life maintains ordered structure and function despite constant molecular motion and thermodynamic noise. This continuity cannot be explained by chemical reactions alone. Biological systems sustain coherence through a nested architecture of tubular and helical waveguides — including DNA, protein helices, microtubules, cytoskeletal networks, membranes, mitochondrial cristae, collagen fibrils, and the fascial continuum — that enable mechanical, electrical, and protonic oscillations to propagate with stability across spatial and temporal scales.
This paper articulates a unified framework in which coherence emerges from phase-stabilized resonance supported by geometry and hydration. We describe how membrane potential, mitochondrial redox oscillations, cytoskeletal alignment, and fascial load-bearing continuity form a coherence cascade that integrates molecular identity, cellular organization, tissue integrity, physiological rhythm, and embodied perception. We show how aging, chronic inflammation, cancer, autoimmune dysregulation, and trauma physiology can be understood as loss of re-entrainment capacity, and how healing and regeneration occur when phase stability is restored.
The model yields testable experimental predictions and provides mechanistic grounding for clinical, somatic, and regenerative practices. Coherence is presented not as metaphor, but as a physically measurable and therapeutically modifiable property of living systems.
From Molecule to Mandala: Regenerative Coherence and the Architecture of Metabolism | ChatGPT4o
This book reimagines metabolism not as a series of biochemical reactions, but as a living, pattern-based process of coherence across scale—from molecule to mandala, from mitochondrial rhythm to symbolic restoration. Drawing on insights from redox biology, structured water science, fascia dynamics, bioelectromagnetism, and the psychobiology of meaning, we articulate a regenerative framework of metabolism grounded in coherence-first principles.
By integrating the molecular with the morphological, the cellular with the symbolic, this text offers a transdisciplinary foundation for clinicians, educators, researchers, and systems thinkers seeking to realign medicine with life’s deep grammar. Disease is reframed as a disruption of rhythm, form, and field; healing as a reentrainment of metabolic, structural, and symbolic flow.
This book is both a theoretical contribution and a practical guide—uniting frontier science with ancient principles, and mechanistic rigor with relational resonance. It provides clinicians with assessment tools, symbolic diagrams, and real-world case vignettes that show how to restore coherence in complex chronic conditions through fascia-informed, mitochondria-centered, water-aware medicine.
