Earthing: The Most Important Health Discovery Ever?

Product Information

Parameters that differed by these criteria included white blood cell counts, bilirubin, creatine kinase, phosphocreatine/inorganic phosphate ratios, glycerolphosphorylcholine, phosphorylcholine, the visual analogue pain scale, and pressure measurements on the right gastrocnemius.

I use it in my bed at night, with bare feet. So far the only improvement is easier to get out of bed and stand up straight. I'm hoping it will work on my sleep as I'm needing help in that area. Do have a general feeling of being well, and I look forward to it's coldness on my feet at night! And I understand too, that this book is not only about walking barefoot. It's also about buying electronic tools to help you connect with the energy. Let me say though, that considering that prana is flowing around us and inside us 100% of the time, I don't feel I need to plug in to an outlet if I want to connect on a deeper level with the life force that is everywhere.

‘Earthing’ by Clinton Ober

Clinton Ober and a medical doctor have put together a great, easy to read book on the physical benefits of being grounded. They look at a variety of modern life challenges from depression to heart disease and how the process can help to alleviate and speed up the cure process. Eight healthy men ages 20–23 were put through a similar routine of toe raises while carrying on their shoulders a barbell equal to one-third of their body weight. Each participant was exercised individually on a Monday morning and then monitored for the rest of the week while following a similar eating, sleeping, and living schedule in a hotel. The group was randomly divided in half and either grounded or sham grounded with the use of a conductive patch placed at the sole of each foot during active hours and a conductive sheet at night. Complete blood counts, blood chemistry, enzyme chemistry, serum and saliva cortisol, magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy, and pain levels (a total of 48 parameters) were taken at the same time of day before the eccentric exercise and at 24, 48, and 72 hours afterwards. Parameters consistently differing by 10 percent or more, normalized to baseline, were considered worthy of further study.

Applewhite was able to document changes in the ambient voltage induced on the body by monitoring the voltage drop across a resistor. This effect clearly showed the “umbrella effect” described above. The body of the grounded person is not subject to the perturbation of electrons and electrical systems.

Look at what you put on your feet on a daily basis. Most of you wear one form or another of footwear that evolved from simple foot coverings designed to protect against chilly and challenging ground conditions. You are likely wearing something much more elaborate, a statement reflecting your culture, fashion, behaviour.. etc.. You habitually wear shoes even when they do not serve any practical purpose.” use of a ground tool or specially designed wall plug to connect to “conductive floor mats, chair pads, sheets, mattresses, and common electrode patches to earth individuals indoors while sleeping or sitting”. The book includes numerous case histories of various formerly severely plagued individuals whose symptoms and ailments improved dramatically after being earthed. Condition: Good. Item in good condition. Textbooks may not include supplemental items i.e. CDs, access codes etc.

A natural gait is biomechanically impossible for any shoe-wearing person.. the plantar surface of the foot is richly covered with some 1,300 nerve endings per square inch.. to keep us in ‘touch’ with the Earth.

Inclusion in an NLM database does not imply endorsement of, or agreement with, And I'm not going to plug my bed into an outlet. We're bombarded with really unhealthy EMF waves all day, especially now with tech everywhere in our homes and outside. So there's something about this plugging in things to "connect with the earth" that just seems a bit far fetched.This never-before-told story-filled with fascinating research and real-life testimonials- chronicles a discovery with the potential to create a global health revolution.
