" In time a degenerative action of hydration states (aging) may occur. In keeping with the cellular energy mechanisms discussed above, both the intracellular and extracellular components of tissues operate within certain frequency bands causing hydration binding to become important factors if the energy associated with the tissue diminishes over time. Such diminution may occur via many different mechanisms including the aging process or other degenerative processes. Stiffening of joints and limbs may be a related to a lowering of the photonic energy states within the hydration bonds associated with the ECM. "Data EHE07 Fleming1
