Atmospheric pressure and salt are evidence of a disaster

What you learn by reading this article can be expressed in words - amazing nearby … It is amazing, because a kind of "breath" of the living world, organized by changing the dimensionality of space, opens up to the imagination. Science calls it osmosis (pressure). It’s surprising, because every housewife is engaged in this magic of changing the dimensionality of space in the volume of a soup pot. But still, the main topic of the article is an obvious connection between salt intake and changed atmospheric pressure.

Sudden lack of salt

It turns out that salt consumption is not a gourmet whim. It is vital for a person. Our daily requirement 5…10 gram. If consumption is stopped, then the inevitable consequences come in the form of a breakdown, nervous diseases, digestive problems, fragility of bones, lack of appetite, and, finally, death. This is because the body replenishes the lack of salt by extracting it from other organs and tissues, i.e. destruction of bones and muscles.

Why did nature treat us so cruelly? Where did our "wild" ancestors have to get salt, if it became available relatively recently?

A few centuries ago, salt was very expensive, since it is rarely found in nature in a usable form. It must be mined. Only by developing salt extraction technologies, which took several centuries, we artificially satisfied this need … But why did a person find himself deprived of the resources necessary for life, although the state of the developing ecological system is abundance? Any significant infringement leads to a delay in its development.

And it would be fine it was only about a person. Practically all herbivores and birds experience the same salt deficiency. The industry even produces special feed salt for livestock. Salt is used to feed horses, rabbits, guinea pigs and parrots. In the wild, wild boars and moose will never pass by the bait in the form of a piece of lizun salt. Unhappy animals, like us, suffer from a lack of salt, but unlike humans, they do not have a salt-extracting industry. They lick stones, dig soil in search of salty, and are happy with any handouts.

Everything suggests that the current state of nature is abnormal … Something has clearly changed in the calm course of evolution. Most likely, the very need for salt arose not so long ago, as a result of some global changes on our planet. Otherwise, the animal world would have had time to fully adapt to the changes.

Scientific view of the problem

It will not be superfluous to find out how the scientific world looks at all this. But he doesn't see any problem and just tries to describe the patterns. For example, they say that the salinity of animal blood corresponds to the salinity of the world's oceans:

Let's continue the experiment on our own. In the previous experiment, the salinity of the solution varied at constant atmospheric pressure. And now we will change the atmospheric pressure with a constant composition of the solution. Let's put the same erythrocytes into a solution again, corresponding to the usual salinity of blood of 0.89% today. Of course, nothing happens to them.

But if we put all this in a pressure chamber and significantly lower the atmospheric pressure, then the cells will swell and burst.

After all, their internal pressure will become much higher than the external one. Nature has not provided cells with any other mechanism for equalizing pressure, except for a salt pump. It is quite easy to avoid cell death under conditions of low atmospheric pressure. You just need to salt the solution. The salt pump will start and pump out part of the liquid from the cell membranes. The cells will not rupture, and will live happily ever after, if only the intercellular fluids are salted in time.

This experiment shows that if scientists did not consider atmospheric pressure as constant, they would immediately notice that the salinity of blood directly depends on it. It is now believed that the constant salinity of blood is a must for all organisms. So it is, but only so far the atmospheric pressure has not changed several times.

It is interesting that within the framework of the water-salt balance, such a possibility is not considered by biologists, although we are talking about hundreds of millions of years of evolution. And if they assume that such an inert environment as the water of the world's oceans has changed its salinity several times during this time, then it is logical to assume that atmospheric pressure has changed much more.

I must admit that all the osmotic processes described above are much more complicated. Otherwise, experts in biology will blame: "Here, they say, he whipped everyone on the cheeks, but did not even go deep into the essence of the issue." Indeed, cell membranes also allow a certain amount of ions to pass through, and active chemical "pumps" of the "Na / K-ATPase" type work, which forcibly transport metal ions through the cell membrane. And water, when penetrating through the membrane, experiences resistance due to the fatty layer between the protein membranes of the cell. It is imperative to take into account that the internal pressure of the cell (turgor) is always greater than the external pressure to maintain elasticity. In animals, this is approximately 1 atmosphere. But in fact, all this does not significantly affect the water-salt balance, and the experience with erythrocytes is an example of this. All these factors only contribute to the state of equilibrium.

How it works in life

Nikolai Viktorovich Levashov wrote that the human body is a rigid colony of cells. Almost every cell in our body is similar to those experimental red blood cells.

It is surrounded by intercellular fluid and fully experiences atmospheric pressure. It is atmospheric, not arterial, since the latter falls strongly when the liquid is pushed through the capillaries. Of course, the human body as a whole is a more solid structure than a single cell. There is a skeleton of bones and strong integumentary tissues. Therefore, we are capable of large, but relatively short-term pressure drops.

When diving to a depth of more than 100 m, divers experience a water pressure of more than 10 atmospheres. Conversely, one of the NASA reports described a low blood pressure experiment conducted on monkeys (conventionally humans). The animal was placed in a pressure chamber and the pressure was reduced to vacuum. It turned out that our organisms have strength, which allows us to perform meaningful actions for another 15-20 seconds. After that, loss of consciousness occurs, and after 40-50 seconds, due to decompression sickness, the brain is destroyed.

However, our safety margin does not help with prolonged exposure to reduced pressure. Metabolic processes begin to be disrupted. The pressure of the intercellular fluid, usually close to atmospheric, becomes lower than normal, but in the cells themselves it is still high. The body begins to regulate the osmotic pressure (add blood to the blood), counteracting the bias.

Now, in order for the cells not to experience destructive internal pressure, it is required (as in our experiment with a pressure chamber) to increase the salinity of the intercellular fluid. And it is necessary to maintain this new level constantly. Need more saltthan our previous diet contained. Our body strictly monitors this by monitoring the signals of internal sensors. The brain gives a signal: "I want salty." And if you do not go to meet him, he will get this salt from all tissues, wherever possible. You will not live long and unhappily.

It is extremely interesting that the osmotic pressure is only on 60% created by ions salt, the rest of the participants in this process - glucose, proteins, etc. That is sweet and tasty … Here's the key to our flavor base. A person loves sweets also because these substances complement the counterbalance mechanism for low atmospheric pressure, help the salt pump to work. We need them as well as salt. And again, all animals that suffer from a lack of salt are also very fond of sweets. Fortunately, sweets are more common in nature. These are fruits, berries, roots and of course honey. Also, sugars are released during the digestion of starch, which is contained in cereals.

conclusions

Organisms of animals, like humans, on our planet are adapted to life in conditions higher atmospheric pressurethan we have today (760 mm. rt. Art.). It is difficult to calculate how much it was, but according to estimates, no less than 1.5 times … However, if we take as a basis the fact that the osmotic pressure of blood plasma is on average 768.2 kPa (7.6 atm.), Then it is likely that initially our atmosphere was 8 times denser (about 8 atm.). As crazy as it sounds, this is possible. After all, it is known that the pressure in the air bubbles that amber contains, according to various sources, is from 8 to 10 atmospheres. This just reflects the state of the atmosphere at the moment of solidification of the resin from which the amber was formed. Such coincidences are hard to believe.

It is approximately clear when exactly the drop in the atmospheric density took place. This can be traced back to the industrial achievements of mankind in the extraction of salt. For the last 100 years, several large deposits have been centrally developed. The use of heavy quarry equipment helped us out. 300 … 400 years ago, an increase in salt production was provided by the implementation of the technology of evaporation of sea water, or brine from underground wells.

And everything that happened before, for example, manual picking in open salt marshes or burning plants, can be called an ineffective beginning of the birth of salt extraction technology. Over the past 500 … 600 years, this technology has developed much faster than the already established blacksmith, pottery and others, which indicates its recent birth.

These deadlines fit well salt riots early 17th century, when salt became tantamount to survival. Until this century, this was not observed. Over time, with the development of technology, the demand was satisfied, the severity of the salt issue decreased, and then we no longer see such mass unrest regarding salt. That is, in my opinion, a significant drop in atmospheric density could happen in the 15th … 17th centuries.

Below is a fragment of the book by Vladimir Shemshuk with a commentary by Dmitry Mylnikov about dating, and some other facts indicated in this passage

The nuclear catastrophe that happened on Earth is not a hypothesis, not an idle fiction, but a real tragedy that played out 25-30 thousand years ago, after which a nuclear winter came, known to science as world glaciation.

A phenomenon that no one could explain in any way. The ocean contains 60 times more carbon dioxide than the atmosphere. It would seem that there is nothing special here, but the fact is that its content in river water is the same as in the atmosphere. If we calculate the entire amount of carbon dioxide that has been emitted by volcanoes over the past 25,000 years, then its content in the ocean would increase by no more than 15% (0.15 times), but not 60 (i.e. 6.000%). It remained to make only one assumption: there was a colossal fire on Earth and the resulting carbon dioxide was "washed" into the World Ocean. Calculations have shown that in order to obtain such an amount of CO2, it is necessary to burn 20,000 times more carbon than is in our modern biosphere. Of course, I could not believe in such a fantastic result, because if all the water were released from such a huge biosphere, the level of the World Ocean would rise by 70 meters. It was necessary to look for another explanation. But what was my surprise when I suddenly discovered that exactly the same amount of water is in the polar caps of the Earth's poles. This amazing coincidence left no doubt that all this water used to flow in the organisms of animals and plants of the dead biosphere. It turned out that the mass of the ancient biosphere was indeed 20,000 times larger than ours.

That is why such huge ancient river beds remained on Earth, which are tens and hundreds of times larger than modern ones, and in the Gobi Desert, grandiose dried up water systems have survived. Now there are no rivers of this size. Along the ancient banks of deep rivers, multi-tiered forests grew, in which mastodons, megateria, glyptodons, saber-toothed tigers, huge cave bears and other giants were found. Even the well-known pig (boar) of that period had the size of a modern rhinoceros. Simple calculations show that with such a size of the biosphere, atmospheric pressure should be 8 - 9 atmospheres. And then another coincidence was found. The researchers decided to measure the pressure in air bubbles that formed in amber - the petrified resin of trees. And it turned out to be equal to 8 atmospheres, and the oxygen content in the air is 28%!

The remnants of the "former luxury" from the lost biosphere are huge sequoias, reaching a height of 70 m, eucalyptus trees 150 meters each, which until recently were widespread throughout the planet (the modern forest has a height of no more than 15-20 meters). Now 70% of the Earth's territory are deserts, semi-deserts and areas poorly populated with life. It turns out that a biosphere 20,000 times larger than the modern one could be located on our planet (although the Earth can accommodate a much larger mass).

Dense air is more heat conductive, so the subtropical climate spread from the equator to the north and south poles, where there was no ice shell and it was warm. The reality that Antarctica was free of ice was confirmed by the American expedition of Admiral Beyerd in 1946-47, which caught samples of muddy sediments on the ocean floor near Antarctica. Such deposits are evidence that 10-12 thousand years BC (this is the age of these deposits) rivers flowed through Antarctica. This is also indicated by the frozen trees found on this continent.

On the maps of the 16th century Piri Reis and Oronthus Finneus, there is Antarctica, discovered only in the 18th century, and it is depicted free of ice. According to most researchers, these maps are redrawn from ancient sources stored in the Library of Alexandria (finally burned in the 7th century AD), and they depict the surface of the Earth as it was 12,000 years ago.

Dmitry Mylnikov:

A good selection of facts. From myself, I can add that the maximum height of trees at today's atmospheric pressure is no more than 135 meters, since the water in the trunk rises through the capillaries due to the surface tension of the water, so the height of its rise directly depends on the air pressure. But archaeological finds indicate that previously there were trees up to 1500 meters high! And this just gives the pressure of the atmosphere about 9-10 times higher than now.

At the same time, there is an obvious error in the dating of events. The catastrophe happened much closer to us in time. Most likely in the region of 500-1000 years, no more. Some facts from the article itself speak about this, for example, the image on the maps of the 16th century of the coastline of Antarctica, which is now hidden by ice. That is, when this map was made, there was no ice yet, and it certainly could not have been 25,000 years ago. Written sources don't last that long. This is evidenced by the fact that the peoples of the Far North still use mammoth meat for food, which is found frozen in the permafrost. This means that they froze there relatively recently. And there were a lot of mammoths. The extraction of mammoth tusks in our country is equated to the extraction of minerals and is subject to a corresponding tax, while the number of tusks that were mined in the 20th century speaks of the number in the region of 16 thousand individuals.
