"This accumulation of radioactive isotopes within the cell serves
as a basic component of radiogenic metabolism and, may also, be
accelerated in times of stress or disease. When accompanied by
increased free radical production, the chance for a positron-
electron reaction multiplies. Similarly, documented ingestion of
known radioactive materials, e.g., potassium supplements such as
those taken by KF, will further increase the matter-antimatter
potential and the likelihood of an intracellularly-mediated nuclear
event (51).
In addition to the electron-positron mechanism to produce high-
energy gamma radiation within the cells capable of producing a
photodisintegration event, the K40 itself provides an abundant
supply of gamma radiation. K40, the most commonly occurring
radioactive source within the human body, represents two-thirds of
our internal radiation. It is found intracellularly, predominantly,
in the lean mass of human tissues. Each day, 0.12 uCi (micro
Curies) of K40 in the average man emits 41 million gamma rays (1.46
MeV), 300 million beta rays (.56 MeV), and 500 million delta rays
(various energies). The biological half-life of K40 is 30 days (51).
K40 not only effects intracellular H2O but also comes into contact
with intracellular D2O (deuterium oxide). Deuterium atoms are rare;
sources differ in the natural abundance of deuterium, ranging from
1 part in 4000 to 1 part in 7000 (1:4000 or 1:7000) with an average
of approximately 1:6000. Subsequently, of all the water a person
drinks, or comes in contact with, 1 drop in every 6000 drops will
be a drop of heavy water (52). The photodisintegration of
deuterium, releasing a proton and neutron, can be accomplished with
as little as 2.225 MeV (calculated cross section). "
