Hey everyone — Adam Bigelsen here with another Substack post. This one’s a bit of a rant (a loving one), because the microscope madness continues… but with a few bright spots.
First off, a shoutout to Steve Denk, a solid guy we used to teach with in Chicago, who recently sent out a refreshingly sane email about the absurdities we’re seeing in the live blood world. Most of these so-called “live blood courses” are capitalizing on post-COVID fear and nanobot conspiracy hype — teaching nonsense and encouraging others to spread it.
Steve called it what it is: babbling buffoonery. Some of the current self-proclaimed experts are looking at common blood elements — microzymas, exosomes, air bubbles — and labeling everything as nanobots. They see dots, and suddenly it’s transhumanist tech assembling itself in your bloodstream and uploading your soul to the cloud. No awareness of basic microscopy. No understanding of optics or plasma refraction. Just… dots. And fear.
The most popular of these influencers, with tens of thousands of followers, is now offering her own microscope training — after mistaking air bubbles for nanobot construction zones. I wish I were making this up. But it gets worse: people are now overdoing chelation therapy based on this fear, trying to remove things that aren’t even there. And I personally know of two people who may have lost their lives because of this.
This is why Josh and I are so picky with who we teach. If you want to learn the microscope, start by taking our full 13-week course. We don’t hand out this knowledge casually, because we’ve seen what happens when people run off with a little information and a lot of ego — it causes real harm.
I’d rather work with a few people who think critically than go viral with fear-driven junk. So if you're one of the thinkers, the learners, and the people who care about integrity in this work, thanks for being here. And please, share this with anyone doing blood microscopy who might be caught in the hype — or needs a loving wake-up call.
Until next time… yay for discernment!
— Adam
