Mindsip insights from this episode:
Enhance blood flow with 30 minutes of grounding
Grounding for 30 minutes can increase the negative surface charge on red blood cells by 270%, which helps them separate and improves blood viscosity.
Ground yourself to extinguish inflammation's electrical fire
Inflammation is a form of oxidation, and grounding is like throwing water on that fire by providing the free electrons needed to neutralize reactive oxygen species.
Normalize cortisol levels through grounding for better sleep
Studies show grounding synchronizes cortisol levels to their natural daily rhythm, with levels being lowest at midnight and peaking around 6 am, which improves sleep.
Utilize grounding to reduce inflammation with Earth's electrons
The primary benefit of grounding is not shielding from electric fields, but supplying the body with free electrons from the Earth to reduce inflammation.
Utilize grounding technology for rapid recovery in cycling
A team doctor for a winning Tour de France team secretly used grounding technology, calling it an unfair advantage, to help his athletes recover overnight.
Boost ATP production through grounding to reduce inflammation
A forthcoming study will show that grounding increases ATP production by reducing the inflammation that can impair mitochondrial membrane function.
Test portable earthing device for optimal electron balance
After 20 years of development, a portable device that provides the body with the correct amount of electrons to mimic grounding is being tested.
Eliminate pain through grounding techniques
Since pain is a byproduct of oxidation and grounding provides the free electrons to neutralize it, you cannot have pain in a grounded body.
Focus on results to embrace earthing benefits for women
Over 24 years, 99% of earthing customers have been women because they focus on the results and benefits rather than arguing about the technical proof.
