Everyone likes a ‘freebie’ and, when it comes to our health, if we had constant free access to something that had the potential to make a significant difference to the way we feel and our overall wellbeing, most of us would be pretty happy.
American cardiologist Dr Thomas Levy who is widely acclaimed for his research on vitamin C says, “without exception every process that requires or produces energy is dependent on electron movement or flow. In fact the health status for all living organisms is determined by overall electron flow – good electron flow = healthy, energetic, long life – poor electron flow = low energy and disease – no electron flow = death.”
I first read about ‘Grounding/ Earthing’ early in 2010 when another American cardiologist Dr Stephen Sinatra devoted most of his monthly newsletter to it. His comment “The benefits of ‘Earthing’ are so profound that I believe it may be the greatest health discovery of our time” got me thinking that I should really look into this. The discovery started out with shoes in 1993 when Clint Ober a pioneer in Cable TV had noticed that almost everyone was wearing synthetic-soled shoes.
He wondered if it might be a problem for people if they were insulated from the naturally occurring electrical charges in the Earth’s surface. The ‘snow’ (electromagnetic interference) that was common on TV screens prior to the introduction of Cable TV disappeared as a result of ‘Earthing’ the ‘Cable’.
Clint’s curiosity led him to conduct an experiment on himself which involved using a conductive form of duct tape which he laid on his bed in a grid form. He then ran a wire to the outside to an ‘Earthing’ rod buried in the ground. He lay down on the bed and the next thing he knew it was morning – the best night’s sleep he had experienced in years. Clint repeated the experiment with the same result and in addition he began to notice a significant decrease in pain that he had lived with for many years.
I can recall my early years at primary school when we didn’t wear shoes and somehow we didn’t come down with the colds and illnesses that are now so prevalent. Today there is hardly a pair of feet not fitted out with fashionable brands of walking shoes and ‘trainers’. We have all lost contact with the Earth.
At one time it was believed that the Earth is neutrally charged but it’s now known that it has a negative charge. This is very important for us because damaging free radicals that rob electrons from ‘us’ are positively charged. By simply reconnecting ourselves with the Earth, we have an opportunity to enhance electron flow and thus minimise the potential for free radical damage. We take antioxidants as supplements for exactly the same reason.
Humans evolved like all animals without insulating barriers between the Earth and our feet. The soles of our feet are extremely sensitive due to a high concentration of nerve endings and because nerve tissue is electrically conductive, it’s not difficult to understand why it’s so easy for us to tap into the Earth’s limitless supply of electrons.
Getting our daily vitamin G is very simple, totally safe and absolutely free. Take your shoes off and have a safe and happy Christmas and a healthy year in 2020. (JOHN APPLETON)
