Quantum entanglement holding together DNA?

Posted by on

I’ve been reading up on the ways in which quantum physics may help expand out understanding of chemistry and biology.  This was one of the more interesting ideas I came across: that quantum entanglement may be what holds DNA together. So: this part is tough. The nucleotides in DNA—the molecules that make it up—join together to form the …

It’s no secret that having lunch messes with your biochemistry. Once that sandwich hits your stomach, genes related to digestion have been activated and are causing the production of the many molecules that help break food down. But a new study suggests that the connection between your food’s biochemistry and your own may be more …
