Melanin Theory

You said melanin keeps from absorbing vitamin D that makes you sick if you live in more polar areas. People who live in polar areas need less melanin/more vitamin D.

Melanin keeps you from absorbing/using vitamin D making you sick if you live in more polar areas. It basically makes you a plant, lol.

No, it keeps you from absorbing dangerous UV rays.  Lack of melanin helps to absorb vitamin D.

You said what I said except with some odd notion of intent. If lack of melanin doesn't help you absorb vitamin D, melanin prevents us from absorbing vitamin D by blocking helpful UV radiation, and even slowing genetic variation in our DNA. It could be said that melanin slows genetic diversity causing slowed evolution.

I'm afraid I'll have to disagree with this bit, as most people don't make a habit of toasting their testicles.

I know. People with lots of melanin therefore can't live in arctic areas.

Duh?

GOT MELANIN ANYONE?
 Unblind Africanus
           It is a sad and unfortunate fact that many people of Afrikan descent need to be reminded of black history month, once a year, in order for them to grasp at a few straws of self-awareness. The minds of these victims are too busy trying to emulate European behavior and “civilization” to initiate a serious exploration and “inploration” into their true essence. This goes to many extremes and is something that affects our situation negatively as well as “niggatively". I am often dismayed but no longer surprised at the amount of my brothers and sisters who lack knowledge of self to the extent that, they are not aware of what melanin is. This fundamental determinant which makes us who we are as a people has not been taught to them and they have not taken the initiative to find out about it.

           To start at the beginning: Melanin is a Greek name (from melanos) which denotes the color black. It is true however that before the Greeks appropriated Afrikan civilization and science, in KMT or Egypt (which is a Greek misguided name) the ancient black Egyptian (Metu Nefer) word that had the blackest connotation was KMT and they named themselves by it (kamau). On a psychological level, the study of melanin is a key to unlock mental slavery of black people. Melanin is the fundamental unit of the universe and can exist in four forms including Cosmic Melanin, Planetary Melanin, Plant Kingdom Melanin (chlorophyll) and Animal Kingdom melanin (black pigmentation). The latter is the appropriate field of study for Afrikans.

           In humans, tyrosine, an amino acid, is the main nutrient. Tyrosine is a precursor of melanin and lays the foundation for melanin to be produced. The body must contain an enzyme known as tyrosinase and copper to be able to use tyrosine to create melanin. In humans there are three types of melanin. The first being Eumelanin which has a high electric charge, high molecular weight and density and gives rise to colors from dark brown to blue black. A less dense form of melanin with lower molecular weight is known as pheo-melanin or pseudo-melanin. It has been established that those with no melanin have quite a few more cancers and genetic disorders than those with pheo-melanin. It is also true that people with pheo-melanin have also quite a few more cancerous developments than those with Eumelanin.       

The organ of the human body with the largest surface area is, of course, the skin. Many people are aware that the deep concentration of melanin in African peoples skin makes them black and enables them to use the rays of the sun more effectively than our less “melanated” counterparts, but what few know is that melanin is not only present in our skin but it permeates our whole physical being. It is contained in a small battery cell called a Melanosome. The degree of blackness in various organs in Afrikan people depends on the type of melanin contained and its weight.

Melanin is present in each organ and regulates the workings of our brain. Within the human brain stem are 12 centers of black melanin. On the earth, only humans have deep pigmentation of all twelve-brain centers. The brain center with the deepest pigmentation is the Locus Coeruleus or Black Dot. The Locus Coeruleus supplies the pineal gland with norepinephrine.  The pineal gland controls the flow of melatonin during the night hours to activate R.E.M sleep which allows us to communicate with internal memory pools or other dimensions of life in nature. Melanin also causes seratonin to flow more effectively in the waking state so to “inspirience” more spirituality. This also helps to keep spiritual intunement at an apex. The less melanin in an individual, the more calcified the pineal gland and less access the individual has to the spiritual world.

Melanin exists also as biopigment for vision in the eyes of humans and all vertebrates. Color vision is produced in the retina by melanin through photopigments. These allow deeper melanin concentrations, offer protection from the sun as well as a fuller vision of the color spectrum. The melanin content in the inner ear also is of great importance. Through this ear pigmentation, it was found that increased melanin increases hearing frequencies. Melanin is also used to make the Black Dot more in touch with the universe. This Black Dot (Third Eye) was seen by our Kemetic ancestors as the access point to inner wisdom and divinity. This was the invisible door to the pyramid which when activated would decipher the mysteries.

Melanin in its most concentrated form is black. It is black because its chemical structure will not allow any energy to escape once that energy has come in contact with it. This gives us an insight and shows that melanin dominant people do not require the same amount of minerals and nutrients in their diet as people with less melanin.

Melanin absorbs light rays and stores them so that they can be used as energy later on. This is why Melanin dominant people are able to use sunlight more effectively. A perfect example of melanin’s use is related to Vitamin D. Vitamin D can be found in the skin of melanin dominant individuals after sun exposure, whereas less “melanated” people require the intake of dairy products to secrete vitamin D. It is important for people with high melanin content not to indulge in dairy products because after the age of 5, 80% of highly melanated people are lactose intolerant. For our people, eating diary leads to blockage diseases in the body.  So instead of asking your brothers and sisters if they “Got milk?” you need to ask them the question, “Got Melanin?”  This is just one example and also a brief look at the pervasive manifestations of melanin and its uses. It is a fact that we have ceased to know about our melanin and ceased to use it accordingly. The key to our liberation is the reactivation of our melanin faculties.

The author of this article intends for everyone who reads it to research melanin and hence research their true self. It is important for us to know some basic fundamentals on the energy governing our life. For further research, two highly recommended books upon which this article was fed are:  Melanin:a key to freedom by Richard King M.D and Vitamins and Minerals: from a to z by Jewel Pookrum.


I figured, you knew the correct version of things, so I figured you had misunderstood it.

I hate to break it to these silly people who think that Melanin is somehow magic, but melanin is a pigment, produced by melanocytes in the Stratum Basale level of the epidermis. Melanin is a frickin pigment.

It is produced within the dendrites of the melanocyte, which bubbles off into melanosomes (intracellular vesicle) which rises through the skin to and merges with the plasma membrane of the keratinocytes, dumping the melanin into the cell. The melanin is carried by transport proteins to surround the nucleus. Hooray!

It just never ceases to amuse me over how excited/gullible the scientifically illiterate can be over a pigment. It amuses me to no end trolling their Youtube videos. Every time I get called "close minded" because I require scientific evidence before I stop ridiculing their insanities, I wear it as a badge of honor. 

How does this Melanin theory deal with the fact that Africa is the most fucked up continent on Earth?

Neuromelanin is the dark pigment present in pigment bearing neurons of four deep brain nuclei: the substantia nigra (in Latin, literally "black substance") - Pars Compacta part, the locus coeruleus ("blue spot"), the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus nerve (cranial nerve X), and the median raphe nucleus of the pons. Both the substantia nigra and locus coeruleus can be easily identified grossly at the time of autopsy because of their dark pigmentation. In humans, these nuclei are not pigmented at the time of birth, but develop pigmentation during maturation to adulthood. Although the functional nature of neuromelanin is unknown in the brain, it may be a byproduct of the synthesis of monoamine neurotransmitters for which the pigmented neurons are the only source. The loss of pigmented neurons from specific nuclei is seen in a variety of neurodegenerative diseases. In Parkinson's disease there is massive loss of dopamine  producing pigmented neurons in the substantia nigra. Neuromelanin has been detected in primates  and in carnivores such as cats and dogs.

I suppose a certain type of melanin may be responsible for proper brain function.  Unfortunately, there don't seem to be any studies as to whether or not Eumelanin quantities present in skin and hair correlate with neuromelanin in the brain.  I suspect not.

Or here, I'll just copy it out for you.

Her: " I didn't have time to read your book. Perhaps you should write one for your audience. I'm not a fan."

Funny, if you ever stopped making tendentious arguments long enough to do a quick Google and PubMed search...you would see that the structure is well understood.

<sub>...lets look at the facts
Whats proven is that dark melanin is VERY important healthwise.
Science is wasting ALOT of money trying to examin the molecular structure of dark melanin...they ARENT going to find it...the cells have to be in vitro (living)...meaning it would take a HIGHLY intelluctual being to understand this...meaning they would have to have the MENTAL CAPACITY to produce this substance in MASS ABUNDANCE to understand that science ISNT ever going to figure out its structure...this is where SPIRITUALLY come into play...
those who LACK melanin...arent going to figure out its structure, because it CANT be examined (its ALWAYS changing)...this is WHY we call it magical because in order to produce melanin in MASS abundance...you have to be able to preform a certain type of alchemy...one that has yet to be understood.
The scientists have to KILL the melanocyte in order to even look at it under the microscope...(this should tell you something)

Ever wonder why some ppl are unable to produce this substance in MASS ABUNDANCE and some arent?

because its already been coded in their DNA the amt. of melanin someone will be able produce BEFORE the parents concieve  the child.
..."well how can this be" ? one might ask

because it was coded in "THEIR" (grandparents) parents DNA how much melanin they will be able to produce...and so on.
What amazes me is the fact that an albino (how lacks total pigment)...has the mental capacity to know their limitations...but others want to push these limitations...and end up w/ skin cancer and other health disorders.

hope this helps</sub>

That's an odd assertion, there are no more major discoveries in the field of biology than there are by whites....this is where SPIRITUALLY come into play...spirituality does not explain the folding of molecules
those who LACK melanin...arent going to figure out its structure, because it CANT be examined (its ALWAYS changing)If it was always changing in structure than it would have different properties and would be a very useless macromolecule. The things that change the shape of a protein are salinity, temperature, pH etc. If those things aren't kept relatively stable you would be dead. Try again....this is WHY we call it magical because in order to produce melanin in MASS abundance...you have to be able to preform a certain type of alchemy...one that has yet to be understood.You don't have to perform "alchemy" you simply have to use an entire cell to produce it, which is a horribly non feasible thing to do for a chemical that has shown no medicinal promise.
The scientists have to KILL the melanocyte in order to even look at it under the microscope...(this should tell you something)Oh wow, it's difficult to look at a pigmented cell meant to block light that resides in the dermis? Who would have thought that? That's sarcasm btw.

Ever wonder why some ppl are unable to produce this substance in MASS ABUNDANCE and some arent?Because vitamin d is processed by light penetrating the skin, if you are in a low light area you need more light to penetrate the skin.

because its already been coded in their DNA the amt. of melanin someone will be able produce BEFORE the parents concieve  the child.
..."well how can this be" ? one might askusing a system of 4 nucleotides, I'm pretty sure it's common knowledge.

because it was coded in "THEIR" (grandparents) parents DNA how much melanin they will be able to produce...and so on.
What amazes me is the fact that an albino (how lacks total pigment)...has the mental capacity to know their limitations...but others want to push these limitations...and end up w/ skin cancer and other health disorders. People high in melanin have a higher incidence of a bunch of other disorders, and blacks have the same incidence of cancer. Who would have thunked it?

how much? and how so?

(i wonder how much this bad boy cost)

"actually meaning it would take someone looking into an in vitro cell according to what you just said"
no doe doe...meaning that it would take a highly intelluctually person to reasize that that "UR NOT GOING TO FIND THE MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF EUMELANIN in humans by killing it.

"so you have to have this chemical to understand it? That's an odd assertion, there are no more major discoveries in the field of biology than there are by whites."
??

"Because vitamin d is processed by light penetrating the skin, if you are in a low light area you need more light to penetrate the skin."
Eumelanin is an ancient substance...its been here for billions of years...vitamin D is the white mans reality...they need it not those with an abundance of melanin

i dont argue w/ idiots...hope this helps

hope ur not mixing "book smarts" with common sense..those ppl are colonized...they dont know who they are and forgot who they were...just like the negros over here

well heres a theory for the person who started this thread

-ur ability to produce melanin (or lack thereof) in mass abundance is already predeterminedso?
 BEFORE ur parents concieve, its determined BEFORE ur gender or race.no it isn't
because it was predetermined in THEIR parents..and so on. either u have it or you donteh, your genes determine how much you produce but genes change, malfunction, etc. also very irrelevant to anything. Your ability to produce curly or straight hair is determined generations ago by your ancestors genes. Does that make curly hair special?

-the use is sunscreen in UNnatural...how old is the sun?...its been here for a long time The use of melanin is unnatural. How old is the sun? It's been here for a long time. Wow that works both ways.

-since WHEN would the sun choose melanoma over the ability to synthesis vitD
The sun is not a sentient being and has chosen neither. The human body does better with more melanin in a high sun environment, and better in a low light environment with less melanin. Either way what is your point?


most of these cant be answered by looking under the highest powerd microscopes..so dont atempt
How would a microscope explain evolutionary advantages?


the most science can do is concoct a synthetic version...and smear it on the bottom of their space shuttles so they dont overheatWhat are you smoking? Melanin smeared on a space shuttle would cause it to absorb light from the sun and cause it to overheat faster. Try using those magical "street smarts" in your arguments.

hope this helps
The only thing you've helped is the pro choice movement. They're using you as a poster child.

any particular reason why you are feeding the troll? second is he saying that only white people need vitamin D?

the space shuttle is coated with a synthetic type melanin...dont look for the words MELANIN because ur not goin to find it...when u break the body down there is no such substance. just C=C (carbon to carbon) rings...without this substance coated on th underside od=f the shuttle it WOULD overheat

http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/technology/sts-newsref/sts_sys.html

and no...i dont think nature would code for hair texture color or type OVER protection from the elements

my point is that no matter WHERE you are...there is always a sun...melanoma rates are highest in latitudes of low sunlight...explain this
this theory about vitD is worthless to those w/ deep pigment...no matter where they are because nature STILL wouldnt put melanoma over VitD...ppl are DYING from melanoma
 
how is melanin unnatural???
