title: Quanta and coherence effects in water and living systems.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To review the progress the author has made over the past 5 years in understanding coherence effects in water and living systems using quantum mechanical models.
  
  
  BACKGROUND
  The implications of existing theoretical work on water are discussed.
  
  
  METHODS
  Available techniques for the measurement of frequencies imprinted in water are described or referenced.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The importance of frequency is shown in respect of the understanding of the mechanisms of homeopathy, acupuncture and how bio-information may be stored in water and also in respect of chemical and electrical sensitivities or hypersensitivities; hypersensitivity being that degree of sensitivity that seriously interferes with normal functioning.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Water and living systems have macroscopic quantum properties that can give rise to a memory for frequencies, long-range effects, and entanglement between separated systems.
