Scientists have shown off an effect not unlike that of the "phasers" in the show Star Trek - but it only works on tiny worms called nematodes.
They used a special molecule that, when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light, changes its shape.
When the worms were fed this molecule and then exposed to UV light, they exhibited paralysis.
But when the worms were again exposed to visible light, they regained their ability to move.
The work is published in Journal of the American Chemical Society.
The authors claim the research could have therapeutic applications.
The phaser is a fictional invention in the Star Trek TV shows and films, a gun-like device that can stun or kill adversaries.

Oh no. Here comes another episode of Leave it to Beeber”....
Hmmm, I sense a new food additive coming down the road...
Set phasers to stun.
I’m stuned!

FDA mandated, no doubt.
For humans it’s called “TV”.
Very good.

Denebian Bloodworms?
Additive is already included in the H1N1 vaccine. OK, I made that up, but it sure sounds like it could be true, DON’T IT?
That was my thought, too - it’ll be in the food the military is served, like this generations ‘salt peter’.
Typically, it’s the patriots, and sons and daughters of patriots, that join the military. They’re the ones the liberal elites want to control, so they’re the ones that will get this ‘special additive’.
