Electricity for Health

in the 21st Century

nable to sleep on a hot, muggy summer night, I switched

on the television. A movie, Mary Shelleys Frankenstein, had
started. Professor Waldman was a medical scholar that had
been censured for his rebellious wayshe had diverged from accepted
academic research. Played by John Cleese, his face loomed on the screen
as he explained to Victor Frankenstein, a medical student, played by
Kenneth Branagh: For
thousands of years the
Chinese have based their
medical science on the belief
that the human body is a
chemical engine run by
energy streams. He went on
to explain how they insert:
needles like these into
the flesh at various key points
to manipulate these electric
streams. The enraptured
Frankenstein marveled, I see,
so electricity is the key.
For centuries, the Chinese
have known about and worked with the bodys electrical nature from an
intuitive basis. What, I wondered, has modern science discovered about
the flow of electricity in the body? What evidence is there for an invisible
river of electrons that provides life and health?

The Electrical and Electromagnetic Nature of the

Body
What drives life is a little electrical current,
kept up by the sunshine. All the complexities of intermediary
metabolism are but the
lacework around this basic fact.
Albert Szent-Gyorgi

espite the fact it is a fight for scientists to gain recognition and

acceptance for their work in proving the electrical nature of
the body, numerous patents have been filed, papers published,
books written, and web pages developed to explain the subject. The
research of the following scientists stood out for me. Each breaks new
ground in better understanding how our bodies work to keep us alive and
well.
Jacques Benveniste, M.D., a French scientist states: Life depends on
signals exchanged among molecules.1 These signals travel at speeds
beyond our comprehension. As Benveniste points out, established
medicine is based on the theory
that molecules communicate
only when a key molecule finds
the right keyhole molecule.
A key must be put in the right
keyhole in the same way we
unlock a door. Finding the right
keyhole allows the molecule to
pass along information or, in
other words, create a chemical
reaction. He had been a scientist for many years before he realized the
absurdity of this theoryit suggests a random and cumbersome process
that would be far too slow to account for the lightning speed of reactions
2

in the body. Benvenistes research is based on the fact that molecules

vibratea fact known for decades. These vibrations are the tools of the
tradethe communication system by which biological functions are
controlled. The vibrations are
electromagnetic frequencies
that send signals. Water is one
medium in the body through
which high-speed transmission
of messages between molecules
is possible. We can now
understand, says Benveniste,
how millions of biological
molecules can communicate at
the speed of light. Identifying the specific electromagnetic frequency
for different molecules allows modern science to diagnose and heal using
those electromagnetic frequencies. A discovery that, to this day, is largely
ignored by established medicine.
Electromagnetic frequencies generate electrical currents and electric
currents produce electromagnetic fields. As a result, the terms electricity,
electrical current and electromagnetic are
often used interchangeably.
Another leading scientist, Robert O.
Becker, M.D., broke new ground with his
research in healing using electricity. He
started by proving the electrical nature
of the nervous system and the brain. In
The Body Electric, he states: Our work
on nerves and the brain was leading
toward a whole new concept of life whose
implications only gradually became
apparent.2 Then came his discovery
that bone healing and growth were set
3

in motion by a tiny charge of electricity. Becker found electricity best

described all life functions. Electricity is commonly conducted with the
use of crystal structures. Crystal structures are a key to understanding
the electrical nature of cells. Becker explained, The electron microscope
has shown us crystal-like structures of previously unsuspected complexity
in all living cells, 3 In addition, he described another system hidden
within the biological structures of
the body for electrical transmission.
The sheaths surrounding the nerves
themselves are not merely insulation
as described in established biology.
They function as wires to conduct
electricity that reaches into each
area of the body to create a normal
electrical environment around each
cell, or a stimulatory one when
healing growth is needed. Becker
had cleared the way for the Body
Electric as a new paradigm in
medicine when he stated, those
embarrassing little oddities that the
chemical-mechanistic theory could
not explain are beginning to be
understood
Modern medicine is still largely
ignoring the research of Benveniste,
Becker and other pioneers that have
helped us to better understand how
the human body functions and, more
importantly, how to better help it heal. Franz Morrell, M.D., a German
researcher, inventor and author, also proposed an electromagnetic system
to explain how the body can transmit large amounts of information
extremely fast. How much information? Morrell states: In a single cell
4

the amount of information being transmitted per second is so great that it

would take a hundred years to read if it were printed.4
Science & Vie, a French magazine reported more evidence for the electrical
river in our bodies. Translated the article states: White cells (leukocytes)
kill bacteria and pathogenic fungus by electrocuting them.5 White blood
cells are a key immune system component. This discovery gained further
attention when a letter, sent by the research team, was published in
Nature, a UK science journal.6
The next researcher that stood out reminded me of what I was taught in
high school sciencethat the exchange of sodium and potassium across
the cell membrane creates a pump that is an essential function to sustain
life. A physicist in Greece, Panos Pappas, Ph.D. reminds us what we are
not taught. Pappas explains that the
pump hypothesis is not complete as
it does not explain how the amount
of sodium differs from the amount of
potassium being exchanged. What,
then, is the missing ingredient? The
missing ingredient is electricity!
The rapids get rougher here as
mainstream science does not accept
transmutationone element being
changed or transmuted into another.
Both a French and a Japanese
scientist, Louis Kervran and George
Ohsawa, proved that sodium can be
transmuted into potassium with the
addition of oxygen and electrical energy.7
When describing the transmutation process, tracking how the body
uses electricity, and how the body works to maintain a balance between
sodium, potassium and other chemical reactions in the body, Pappas
exclaimed, This makes understandable the wisdom of positioning the
5

adrenal glands on the top of the kidneys.8 It isnt necessary to understand

the details of the reactions to appreciate his realizationthat our Creator
knew how to best design our bodies.
Lets pause to review why electricity is a key to how the body functions.
Communication within is instantaneous. Electromagnetic signals are the
only way to account for the astounding speed and number of transactions
our body must conduct simultaneously. Our bodies are composed of
the elements that readily conduct electricity: water, crystal structures
and nerves. Research is proving that our immune system depends on
electricity to zap pathogens. And, electricity explains how the body
balances chemical reactions such as the crucial exchange between sodium
and potassium.
Daniel L. Kirsch, Ph.D. and Fred N. Lerner, Ph.D., sum up for us:
Atoms are bonded electrically. Further in our rudimentary training
we learned that there are voltage potentials across the membrane of all
cells. They do not, however, speculate on the staggering significance of
these facts.9 Researchers with open minds who are willing to go beyond
established thinking and theories are getting closer to understanding our
Creators grand design for how we function in the river of life.

The Body Uses Light and Sound

The saying is, as above so below. We have
light and sound here because they already exist
in the higher planes. These are very
important aspects of God,
the Light and Sound.
Harold Klemp

any religions agreethere is a life force that sustains us. Its

called the Holy Spirit, Prana, the Qi or Chi, the ECK, the
Force, and other names. Scriptures describe this formingpower as Light and Sound. Like many others, I enjoy the inspiration,
upliftment and love that comes
from experiencing this Light
and Sound inwardly using
contemplative techniques.10
How does this Light and Sound
manifest physically?
Lets start with Heinrich Hertz,
a physicist, who discovered the
photoelectric effect in the
1890s. This effect means that light
interacts with matter to create
electricitywhen light strikes a
substance, electrons are discharged.
Later, renowned scientist Albert
Einstein, proposed that we receive light as photons. The photon is both a
particle and a wave that travels at the speed of light.
We absorb photons directly from sunlight and also from plants depending
on their health or nutrient content. Photons from the sun are absorbed
7

not only through the eyes but also

through the skin. Research confirms
the existence and importance of the
acupuncture points and meridians
for conducting light to the body.
And the acupuncture points and
meridians have also been proven to
be more electrically conductive than
surrounding tissue.2, 11
I was excited to learn that light
produces electrical currents in the
body. I found it even more intriguing
to discover that the reverse is also
trueour electrical energy assists our
cells to generate photons. Our bodies
emit light. Biophotons is the term used to describe light emitted by the
body. It is our DNA that absorbs, stores and then re-emits lightit is the
bodys electrical transformer. It is the blueprint found in every cell that
makes each of us unique. It stores the information needed to generate
new cells that form our liver, our heart, or any part of the body we use.12
Fritz Popp, Ph.D., a German researcher, led the way in biological photon
research. He described a photon as a process rather than a particle. It
is an electromagnetic field that can be measured. His measurements
illuminate how the millions of reactions within a cell each second can
only be explained by the speed of lightneither thermal radiation nor
chemical reactions can explain the speed it takes for the work our cells do.
Photons are the real regulators of our biological systems, he says.13 One
photon can trigger one million reactions in one second and the reaction
rate increases with the number of photons available.
Healthy cells glow with the dance of biophotons. Biophotons, explains
Popp, substitute for the sun during the hours when were not exposed to
itthey can deliver an equivalent intensity! As one researcher states: We
8

are in a very literal sense light

beings as ancient mystical
teachings profess.11
What about the bodys
use of sound? I thought.
Remember the universe
was created by sound. Very
shortly the scientists will
be saying this, Richard
Gerber, M.D. reminded us
in 1988 with the publication
of Vibrational Medicine.14
Sound absorbed through the ear or the skin also produces electricity. We
think of sound and light as separate phenomena but theyre simply the
same electromagnetic energydetectable at different frequencies and
wavelengths. Light in frequencies above, below and within the visual
spectrum is both absorbed and emitted by the body. So too is sound
both absorbed and emitted from above, below, and within the audible
range. Small sophisticated tuning forks.15 Thats how one researcher
described the DNA in a cell. The BBC News online posted an article
describing how a musician and a biologist worked together to convert the
electromagnetic DNA vibrations to audible sound. They discovered the
sound of DNA makes beautiful music.16
Just as we emit light, we emit soundto varying degrees depending
on our health. If you apply the discipline and practices of the Qigong
masters in China you have a high level of sound at your command.
Research proves their discipline and practices result in sound signals
from their hands one hundred times more powerful than the average
person and one thousand times more powerful than those who are ill.17
The Book of Sound Therapy reminded me again of our Creators grand
design in the bodies we use. The human being is likened to a very
complex, unique, and finely-tuned musical instrument the body
9

continually broadcasts the frequencies of physical, emotional, mental

and spiritual life.18 Research shows when missing sound frequencies are
restored, the body heals. In The Book of Sound Therapy, the author also
traces the value of chanting as having therapeutic powers by establishing
and maintaining the tuneful harmony between human and heavenly
existence.
To recap, our body functions as a single instrument. Our cells rely on
light and sound to play a healthy tune. The electromagnetic vibrations of
light and sound create the electricity cells need to carry on their work and
constantly replace themselves. DNA acts as the transformergiving cells
the electricity to play their part and, in turn, broadcast light and sound.
That is the underlying basis for health. We rely on light and sound from
our Creator, the sun, food and water.

Energy Medicine
Many scientists, who are on the frontier,
theorize and have demonstrated that we are an information system
and its not entirely localized
in our body, that we are accessing information
from the field all the time.
Lynne McTaggart
Fields of information are control systems over
and above the molecular level or biochemical level. They are
systems that organize the body.
Rupert Sheldrake

ur bodies, I discovered,
have an early-warning
system for disease.
Energy medicine recognizes
that information is constantly
exchanged between our physical
bodies and a field of energy
that surrounds us. This field of
varying vibrations, structures
and organizes the physical body.
I now understand that chemical
deficiencies, be they vitamins, minerals or hormones, show up at a
later stage. The bodys first signal that all is not well is vibrational or
electromagnetic. This seemingly invisible vibrational field can, however,
be detected and seen.
Energy fields of colored light emanating from the physical body were first
made visible by a Russian couple, Semyon and Valentina Kirlian, in 1939.
While repairing hospital equipment Semyon noticed electromagnetic
12

vibrations caught imprints of human energy on film. Working with

his wife, Kirlian further developed the technique to capture the energy
fields. The technique became known as Kirlian Photography.19 In 1996,
Dr. Konstantin Korotkov, another Russian researcher who had met
Semyon Kirlian in his later years, developed a more advanced systema
camera with computer softwareto visually present this energy or,
informational field as he calls it, for diagnostic purposes.
In addition, Dr. Korotkov used his system to measure the energy fields
of champion athletes, individuals involved in creative pursuits, and those
with a spiritual calling. He discovered they displayed a more highly
balanced energy field than usual. He concluded, So this electrical process
is not only health, it is not only well being, it is creativity, it is attitude to
the world.20
Wolfgang Ludwig, a contemporary researcher in Germany, compares
the energy field of the body to the seemingly solid physical body:
We have one billion more electronic particles than mass particles.
Our body consists of a
lot of biophotons and
electromagnetic signals but
only a very, very small part of
material particles.21
The disease process starts
when damaging frequencies
or vibrations are stored in
cells. These damaging waves
may build up unnoticed for
years as chemical changes
do not appear until later.
Bacteria, viruses and other
pathogens take hold and the disease process gradually becomes visible.
It took me many years to recognize that my unhealthy lifestylepoor
diet and lack of exercise, emotional and mental stress, and exposure to
13

environmental pollutantswere aging my body faster than necessary. I

now realize this lifestyle was creating damaging frequencies that can be
detected long before physical symptoms erupt.
Jimmy Scott, Ph.D., founder of a system called Health Kinesiology, helps
define Energy Medicine. We use energy in our English language in a
lot of different ways. The energy I am talking about the best word
for it is bioenergetic the flow and function of energy within us and
between us and the environment. He continues, I see the bioenergy in
the body as being the blueprint for the physical body.
In addition to use as an early warning system, Jimmy Scott points out
that therapies can also be applied at the subtle energy level for profound
effects physically, emotionally and mentally. He explains, We can
deal with phobias usually in a few minutes. But the academics are not
interested in that they wont even look at the new techniques because
they dont understand what energy is all about.22
In Energy Medicine, Donna Eden describes how she works with seemingly
empty space to help relieve suffering. She has worked on individuals with
phantom limb pain after an appendage has been cut off. This pain is very
real despite the fact a physical leg, arm or finger is missing. A war veteran
whose foot and leg had been shot off was experiencing such excruciating
pain in the missing limb he was losing his will to live. Eden started
working on the space where his foot had beenmassaging the subtle
energy field that still existed. His pain gradually disappeared.23
Drugs are often the treatment of choice when disease is diagnosed. W.
Langreder, another German researcher cautioned us, They [drugs] act in
the body by suppressing damaging waves from a sick organ Langreder
further warned, A chain of complaints follows which neither the patient
nor the doctor connects with the earlier allopathic [drug] therapythe
seemingly quick healing 24 In other words, damaging waves are
created by the bodys electrical response to stresses. These damaging
waves are stored and build up until a physical symptom or illness erupts.
If a drug suppresses these damaging waves rather than release them
14

by stimulating the body to heal itself, we start a chain reaction that

eventually leads to more severe symptoms and illness.
Langreder also reminds us that the damaging waves move first to the
jawbones which steer them on to the teeth. Tooth decay is an early
warning signal of disease.
To restore health, the flow of energy in and out of the body in the form
of electromagnetic waves, vibrations, or oscillationsthe electrical
processesmust be re-established. This is not usually an instant
process. Time and patience are necessary to coach the body back to
electromagnetic equilibrium for health. There are several therapies
that work to balance the energy body that in turn allows for mental,
emotional and physical or chemical balance. Some of the betterknown therapies are: acupressure, acupuncture, applied kinesiology,
aromatherapy, chiropractic, color therapy, homeopathy, lymphology,
massage, sound therapy, nutritional products and plant essences
brimming with photons. Several state-of-the-art computerized devices are
now available that both detect damaging waves on an energy level and
apply appropriate energetic treatments to help restore balance.25
Energy medicine recognizes an early-warning system for disease. If
imbalances in the vibrations of our energy field are corrected soon
enough, we can restore health rather than experience disease.

History of Electro-Medicine
By 1884 it was estimated that 10 000 physicians
in the USA were using electricity every day
for therapeutic purposes
James L. Oschman

istory came alive for me when I read that electric fish were
the earliest recorded form of electro-medicine. I wondered
how many
people over the ages had
rejuvenated themselves
accidentally and then
deliberately by a run in
with an electric eel. Im
sure such encounters
could have been fatal as
well. The ancient Roman
physician, Scribonius
Largus, in 46 AD, cured
headache and gout by
having patients stand
on a wet electric torpedo fish.26 Dr. Norman Shealy, the developer
of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) explains,
Intermittently the electric fish was used for a variety of illnesses
until about 1745 when artificial electricity began to replace the less
controlled natural source.27 By the 19th century electricity was used
extensively in health spas and as part of medical treatments.
The use of electricity for health continued to thrive into the 20th
century. I enjoy a dose of electricity as a result of this era every time

16

I visit a store on Main Street in Disneyland. Two free-standing devices

from earlier in the century attract me with the headlines: Electricity
The Silent Physician and Electricity is Life.
Researcher, Georges Lakhovsky, actually had hospital cooperation in the
eastern United States for his work with electricity in the early part of the
20th century. He published a book, The Secret of Life, in 1935 to describe
the variety of disease conditions that were cleared in humans, animals
and plants with his Multiple Wave Oscillator. Lakhovsky also concluded
the nature of the cell is electrical. The cell or the essential organic unit
in all living beings, he said, is
nothing but an electromagnetic
resonator, capable of emitting
and absorbing radiations of very
high frequency.28 As medical and
pharmaceutical dominance of the
health care system closed in, his
research ended.
Many years later, Robert C.
Beck, D.Sc., a distinguished
physicist, brought Lakhovksys
Multiple Wave Oscillator to
public attention. His design
became known among those who
continued to research electricity
for health as the Beck antenna. In a paper published in 1963, Beck
reported: Within this multiple-wave range of frequencies, every cell in
the body can find its ONE resonant frequency and absorb energy at its
own natural wavelength.29
Independent of Lakhovksy, Royal Raymond Rife, was having
phenomenal success in the western U.S.clearing cancer in California
with a bio-electric device. Barry Lynes summarizes his story for us in
The Healing of Cancer: In association with the University of Southern
17

California, a number of clinics used Rifes technology to cure terminal

cancer during the period 19341938. Some of the leading researchers in
the country and leading physicians in Southern California participated.30
On May 6, 1938 the Evening Tribune in San Diego featured an article by
Newell Jones titled, Dread Disease Germs Destroyed by Ray, Claim of
S.D. Scientist. Despite a sub-title that heralded a new era: Cancer Blow
Seen After 18-Year Toil by Rife the research came to a sudden end.31
Lynes continues, In 1938, the AMA [American Medical Association]
found out about the Rife cancer cure the entire program was destroyed
within six months. Rife was hauled into court and the treatment was
effectively quashed.
What gave the AMA such power? Why did research with electrical
health devices have to go underground? In the U.S. up to the 1920s,
medical training was available from a variety of schools offering differing
specialties including the use of electricity. Under the guise of protecting
the public, the Flexner Report prepared by Abraham Flexner of the
Rockefeller Institute, was commissioned.32 This report recommended
commercial medical schools be closed and that university medical schools
adopt a standard curriculum. The Flexner Report was financed by the
same people who were investing in the fledgling pharmaceutical industry.
It is not surprising, then, that the standardized curriculum did not
include electro-medicine. Dominance of the surgical and pharmaceutical
approach to health was soon established.33
Despite peer censure, leading scientists have continued to pursue
electricity for health throughout the twentieth century. Bjrn
Nordenstrm, a medical doctor in Sweden was among them. He used
electricity for cancer patients. He gained a prestigious reputation as a
former Chairman of the Nobel Assembly and the inventor of the needle
biopsy. In 1983 he published a book titled Biological Closed Electric
Circuit Clinical, Experimental, and Theoretical Evidence for an Additional
Circulatory System. He discovered, all living systems contain
numerous functioning electrical circuits. These circuits exist in all
18

bodily functions and determine the well being of the body.

Today, Russian and Eastern European scientists are considered the
leaders in electro-medical research.34 The sputnik, an electronic pill that
activates in the stomach is reported to have been the secret to keeping
aging and ailing former Soviet leaders alive.35 Information on the Internet
states: The capsule is part of a whole program of natural drugless
treatment developed in Russia. gives you a kind of super acupuncture
treatment as it travels through your digestive system.36 It can be used
more than once. Ive tried the capsule and the one draw back is retrieving
the launch capsule once it is expelled with feces.
Electricity has an impressive record. It has been used for health for about
twenty centuriesfrom Roman times to today. The use of ElectroMedicine is expanding. Electricity for health in the 21st century is
becoming a treatment of choice.

19

Electromagnetic Health of Our

Environment and Food
A wealth of electrons means an increase in
happy well-being. An electron-rich food
intake which supplies us with the resonance
system for the suns energy, must once more
achieve priority.
Johanna Budwig

efore examining bio-electric devices further, lets look at

environmental influences and foods that are helpful or harmful to
the bodys electrical systems. Dr. Fritz Popp, father of biophoton
research, developed a system to measure whether a food or substance is
toxic or to what degree a substance is beneficial to the cells. The greater
the capacity of the food to store light, the greater its value to our health.
As an example, Popp used his testing method to compare eggs raised by
two different methods.
Free-range eggs are
considered superior because
the chickens are allowed to
live naturallyto wander
and to feed on greens. The
industry producing eggs
for the mass market, on the
other hand, keeps chickens
caged and unable to move
about. In his testing he
did not find any difference in the chemical composition of the eggs
nutrients appeared to be equal. He did, however, find that the free-range
eggs transmitted more light.13 This means they provide a greater benefit to
the body electrically. Ultimately, then, the free-range eggs provide more
20

chemical nourishment for the body as well.

Reporting on Dr. Patrick Flanagans research in Towards a New Alchemy,
Nick Begich tells how ingesting raw amino acids, the building blocks
for protein, boosted the energy or electrical readings of the acupuncture
points dramatically.37 Other foods that boost the energy flow are fresh
vegetables and fruitespecially organically grown. Raw foods are superior
to cooked because of their photon energy. This has also been proven with
Kirlian photography, another method to measure light emission.38
The late German researcher Hans Nieper, M.D., when working with
Multiple Sclerosis patients found foods rich in beta-carotene helped
relieve symptoms. He noticed, however, that beta-carotene supplements
were not as effective as the raw foods. As a result, he speculated that
the beta-carotene in raw food was more electrically active than the
supplements.39 With a dependence on processed foods and synthetic food
supplements, its easy to see how modern diets lead to electromagnetic
starvation.
The water we drink should still have a high degree of electrical energy.
Flanagan, among others, describes water to be the most electrically alive
when its whirling flow has not been impeded and it retains a ready supply
of naturally dissolved colloidal and ionic minerals. Flanagan also noted
that emotional states cause our electrical readings to fluctuate widely.
And, here are some of the environmental factors that interfere with
the electrical activity of the body: synthetic clothing; indoor air from
synthetic carpeting, drapes and upholstery; forced air heating and electric
baseboard heating; cigarette smoke; aluminum and building materials
that shield or distort the natural energy fields from the earth and the
universe. Long-term exposure to heavy metals such as mercury interferes
with the electricity of the cell as well.

21

Not all electricity, of course, is beneficial. Considerable evidence

exists demonstrating that power lines, transformers and appliances
transmitting or using high voltage, 50 or 60 cycles per second, alternating
current (AC)emit harmful extra-low-frequency (ELF) waves. This type
of electricity does not occur in nature.
Medical diagnostic systems such as X-rays can be damaging to health.
X-rays are a potential hazard as they generate ionizing radiation. X-rays
actually ionize molecules when they strike the body. These ionized
molecules can then form mutations that may be toxic to the body.
Diagnostic devices such as the electroencephalogram (EEG) to measure
brain wave activity, the electrocardiogram (ECG) to monitor the heart,
and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to detect tumors, have not
proved harmful. They generate more electricity than the bio-electric
devices used as therapies.

22

Electricity for Health

I am convinced that the therapy of the future
will employ heat, light, electricity and other
physical agents yet unknown.
Arsene DArsonval

ost bio-electric devices for health work to gently stimulate the

natural electrical currents in the body to help generate healing.

Dr. Robert O. Becker, truly a pioneer in electro-medicine,

stated: It is now evident that a wide variety of waveforms, pulse shapes,
frequencies, and current densities will give considerable pain relief.3
Three applications in particular have gained government approval. One
is the TENS (Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation) device
used for sports injuries and pain relief. A second is Cranial Electrical
Stimulation (CES) units. CES devices have proven effective as therapy
for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and even addictions.40 And thirdly, the
use of pulsed magnetic fields is becoming widely accepted for healing.
In addition to wide-spread use in Russia and Eastern Europe, research
is starting to escalate in the UK and North America. An associate of
Dr. Becker, C. Andrew Bassett, M.D., obtained FDA approval in the
U.S. for the use of Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Frequencies (PEMF) for
healing difficult bone fractures.41 Devices called repetitive Trans Magnetic
Stimulators (rTMS) are providing relief from migraine headaches,
schizophrenia, epilepsy, obsessive-compulsive disorder and strokes. Science
News is one of the magazines that has summarized several rTMS research
projects and explains: Unlike a direct electrical current, a magnetic
field penetrates a skull easily and painlessly, as if it were a ghost passing
through a wall. The magnetic field induces a current that stimulates
brain-cell activity.42
The field of bioelectromagnetic medicine is growing. Thats a mouthful
23

but it is the term modern pioneers are using to describe this medical
field. An article in Alternative Medicine reports: Its safer than drugs and
more cost-effective for osteoarthritis It eases symptoms of macular
degeneration, cancer, multiple sclerosis, insomnia, and Parkinsons
diseaseconditions for which sufferers would welcome any new
option.43
While research using electromagnetic,
frequency, and microcurrent therapies is still
limited because of the high cost of research
as well as limited acceptance by the medical
community, it has gained ground compared
to the fate of at least two earlier researchers.
I talked with Dr. Benjamin Lau in 1999, a
medical researcher at Loma Linde University.
He said that his research on sports injuries
in the 1980s using a Pulsed Magnetic Field
device was getting promising results. He could not, however, get funding
to continue the research.44 That was the fate of Dr. Robert O. Beckers
research as well. He reported in The Body Electric, The lab ceased to exist
on New Years Day 1981.2
An independent researcher, Dr. Hulda Clark, Ph.D.,
N.D., operated a clinic in Mexico before her passing
in 2009. She wrote several books to make her
clinical findings known directly to the public. Clark
identified chemicals as hidden pollutants in processed
foods, personal care and household products. These
chemicals encourage the growth of intestinal parasites
that lead to disease. Clark offered an herbal protocol
and cleansing programs that included an electrical
unit, the Zapper, to help eliminate parasites and disease. Dr. Clark said,
Zapping does not kill shielded organisms such as those that may be
in the middle of your stomach or intestines. So zapping is still not
24

perfect, but can bring

such manifest relief
that everyone should
buy or make one.45
The late Robert (Bob)
C. Beck, D.Sc. was
also an independent
researcher who
funded his own
projectsmany
related to health. He proved his genius while still in college with his
invention of the flash bulb. Among his achievements as a physicist, were
a magnetometer, a miniaturized SQUID (Superconducting Quantum
Interference Device) that measured extremely low-level electromagnetic
radiation and a handheld EEG (electroencephalogram) device to measure
brain waves. As a result of his brain research, he developed the Brain
Tuner, a CES (cranial electro stimulation) unit.

Beck was respected by many of his peers. One colleague was reported
to have said he should have been on the cover of Time magazine as the
Peoples Scientist. Bob was known to champion the public cause. He felt
25

we should be informed about emerging and often secret technologies

both harmful and beneficial.46
Beck was among a group of maverick scientists that are members of the
US Psychotronics Associationan organization formed to bridge the
esoteric and scientific worlds. Dr. Elizabeth Rauscher, a brilliant scientist
and member of this group, revealed there are a considerable number of
well-qualified researchers who are part of this sub-culture. They meet
to share, question, and explore what conventional science does not yet
understand or accept.47
One of the avenues of research that caught Becks attention was that of
Steven Kaali, M.D. and William Lyman, Ph.D. at Albert Einstein College
of Medicine in New York. In 1993, they filed U.S. Patent Number
5,188,738 giving details of their research. In their laboratory, gentle levels
of electricity proved to render the bacteria, virus, parasites and/or fungus
ineffective to infect or affect the normally healthy cells while maintaining
the biological usefulness of the blood or other fluids.48 On a CBC radio
broadcast in Canada, Dr. Lyman explained the level of electric current
was considered safe as it was about the same as pacemakers that have been
used safely for many years.49
After discovering this patent, Beck applied his inventive genius to develop
a non-invasive way to pulse microcurrents into the blood. Using his
knowledge as a physicist, he designed a unit to overcome the natural
resistance of the skin; to produce enough voltage to create the necessary
microcurrents in the blood; to ensure there would not be undue heat;
and to ensure the blood would not be ionized. The microcurrent unit
places two electrodes over the arteries (pulse points) on the wrist for
blood electrification. At these pulse points, the arteries come closer to the
surface, hence the electricity is better able to reach the blood.
Later, realizing the lymph carries about 10 times the amount of viruses
and bacteria as blood, he invented a direct current (DC) pulsed magnetic
field unit to use on lymph nodes as well as other sites on the body. The
pulsed magnetic field is geared to create microcurrents in lymph and
26

tissue. The level of microcurrents as stated in the Kaali, et. al. patent is 50
to 100 microamperes of current. Beck stated: There are no known side
effects since milliampere currents applied to skin are much lower than
those in FDA approved TENS, CES and muscle stimulators which have
been in safe daily use for many years.50
He brought the benefits of what came to be known as the Beck Protocol,
directly to public attention by speaking at Natural Health Shows in the
U.S. Beck, however, did not sell his units. Instead, for a small fee to cover
printing costs, he provided a handout describing how to build the units.
For those who are not technically proficient, he recommended purchasing
units from SOTA Instruments Inc.51
In addition to the application of microcurrents and pulsed magnetic
fields, Beck advocated the benefits of ionic colloidal silver and drinking
freshly ozonated water for health. With the help of SOTA, his four-steps
for health became known as The Beck Protocol. Preliminary research
and a wealth of testimonials provide evidence for the effectiveness of the
Beck Protocol.52
During an interview in 1998 about his life and work, Beck summed up
by saying, Well, God has left a back door that cures and that back door
seems to be electricity.53
While I love Bobs comment, I dont want to mislead anyone with the
word cure. This word, used within the Medical Model for health, gives
credit to something outside the body that is perceived to end the disease
process. Within the Natural Health Model it is understood that the
bodys natural ability to heal itself can be stimulatedsuch as with bioelectric therapies. Whether our bodies are working to heal us or not,
however, depends on how we treat them over time.

27

How the Beck Protocol Helps

Any interventions that down-regulate the sympathetic nervous
system [and] up-regulates the parasympathetic nervous system,
has a beneficial effect on the body. microcurrent has been
able to sedate the sympathetic nervous system and activate the
parasympathetic nervous system.
Dietrich Klinghardt

t was, at first, a surprise to learn that electricity would have a

beneficial effect on the nervous system. On reflection, it was not so
surprising that the nervous system would benefit when I realized
that the low level of current, microcurrents, would be in harmony
with the bodys natural electrical system. As a result of fast-paced and
more stressful lifestyles, the sympathetic branch of the nervous system,
which is involved in all stress reactions in the body, functions in high
gear nearly all the time. The sympathetic nervous system is involved in
the stimulation of activities that prepare the body for action, such as
increasing the heart rate, increasing the release of sugar from the liver
into the bloodresponses that serve to help us fight off, or retreat, from
danger. In contrast, the parasympathetic branch of the nervous system is
involved in all calming reactions. It is a key to healing functions in the
bodyactivating tranquil functions such as stimulating the secretion of
saliva or digestive enzymes into the stomach. It needs support to better
allow the body to heal. A gentle flow of microcurrents can provide that
support and in the process help balance the two branches of the nervous
system.
That is one way the central step of the Beck Protocol, blood electrification
or micropulsing, helps.
Dr. Klinghardt adds another way in which microcurrents help: all
microcurrent that we looked at activate the activity of the white blood
cells. Waking up white blood cells can make a big difference to our
28

health as these cells are our friend and clean up the very cause of most
illnesses.54
Speaking of white blood cells, two medical researchers in Switzerland,
Jacques Schrenzel and Karl Heinz Krause, added to the evidence that our
bodies hum to the tune of an electrical beat. They discovered that white
blood cells actually zap pathogensthey use electricity. White cells
(leukocytes) kill bacteria and pathogenic fungi by electrocuting them.55
Using microcurrents, as applied by the Beck Protocol, can help support
the bodys natural electrical system.
Bob Beck was excited by the discovery made by the Swiss researchers as
white blood cells are a crucial part of our immune systems. Looking at
this totally as a physics or engineering problem, he concluded, a few
structured electrons can act as the equivalent of trillions of white cells
and restore function to ones immune system.53 Supporting the immune
systemthe system of defense that our bodies rely on for healthis one
more way the Beck Protocol helps.
Lets pause here to review what weve discovered so far, about the ways
microcurrents can help. Microcurrents can: 1) balance the nervous
system, 2) activate white blood cells to better scavenge pathogens, 3)
support the bodys natural electrical system, 4) support the immune
system.
Voltage is a measurement that has long been recognized as a way to
describe the electrical potential of cells within our bodies. Back in
the 1950s, Dr. Harold Saxon Burr discovered that healthy cells had a
different voltage than diseased cellsmore specifically than cancer cells.56
A healthy cell works to maintain a negative (-) voltage within the cell.
Cell voltages move considerably into the positive (+) voltage range as a
cell weakens and becomes diseased.
Dr. Jerry Tennant researched cell voltages in order to restore his own
health. For a cell to replace itself with a new healthy cell, the cell must
have a high enough voltage. Dr. Tennant recognized that: The human
29

body is controlled primarily by electronics (physics) not chemistry.57 In

Healing with Voltage, he describes how good nutrition, healthy lifestyle
practices, and a microcurrent device each boost electron flow. Boosting
electron flow restores cells to a healthier voltageone more reason
microcurrents help the body to heal.
Free radicals function electrically to clean up debris or toxins in the body.
A free radical is an atom with an unpaired electron. Free radicals need to
find another electron to gain stability. To achieve stability, they steal an
electron from another atom. With unhealthy lifestyles and environmental
pollutants, free radicals are formed in increasing amounts resulting
in damage to healthy cells. Antioxidants to the rescue. Antioxidants,
for example vitamins C and E, donate electrons to satisfy free radicals.
Antioxidants help keep the free radical process under control so healthy
tissue is protected.
Tom Valone, a research scientist who specializes in electrotherapy says,
Free radicals are rampant throughout the body. He sees using electrotherapy as a means to provide the electrons needed to quench free
radicals. Microcurrents, once again, come to the rescue reducing wear
and tear on the body by feeding electrons to free radicals.
If we are living a healthy lifestyle, our bodies are constantly detoxing
getting rid of wastes through the kidneys, the skin, the breath and the
bowels. With a healthy body, the detoxing is gentle enough so we dont
have reactions. Rick Sant, a natural health practitioner, explains:
When I first [heard about] blood electrification in 1995, I wanted to test
it on a few people because on paper the concept looked very promising.
I started off with a few AIDS cases and a few cancer cases and people
with hepatitis and some other chronic and degenerative illnesses and what
I found is that as soon as they started using the blood electrification, they
were getting an immediate detox effect. So I knew that if the technology
was creating a detox, that something was going on. There was an effect
happening.59
30

Speeding up detoxification told Rick Sant that blood electrification or

microcurrents were working to help heal.
Sant used live-blood cell analysis to chart the progress of his patients.
I observed a dramatic reduction in the amount of microbes in peoples
plasma and serum that had been exposed to blood electrificationpeople
that had very high bacteria levels, very high fungus and yeast levels, very
high levels of parasites. After staying on the program for even short amounts
of time, sometimes one week, two weeks, three weeks, youd see a dramatic
reduction in parasitic activity, in fungal development, in bacteria growth.59
The keystone of the Beck Protocol is based on laboratory research at
Albert Einstein College of Medicine showing that pathogen activity in
a white blood cell solution was disabled by microcurrents. The fact that
blood electrification was reducing pathogen activity in individuals who
applied microcurrents using electrodes over the arteries on the wrist,
confirms the validity of Bob Becks design.
Two natural health
practitioners in Germany,
Thomas Blasig and Bea
Langhammer, who use liveblood cell analysis also found
that blood electrification shows
amazing improvement to the
blood. They followed up on
the research of Dr. Alfons Weber who discovered that the red blood cells
in cancer patients were often overloaded with parasites. Langhammer
used a dark-field microscope to examine the blood of those who had been
diagnosed with cancerboth before and after their clients used a variety
of natural therapies. After their clients applied blood electrification,
Langhammer discovered the microcurrents reduced the parasites from the
red blood cells faster than any other therapy they used. In addition, they
emphasized that their clients made lifestyle changes including a nutrientrich diet with supplements.
31

Langhammer says, The blood electrification I think is a very useful tool

in natural healing because it helps the body to heal itself and it helps the
body to get rid of the microbes inactivate them and then help the
immune system get rid of the parasites.60
Lets pause to review once again. Microcurrents can: 5) increase cell
voltage, 6) satisfy free radicals, 7) increase detoxification, 8) reduce
pathogensbacteria, viruses, fungus, parasites.
Langhammer, the natural health practitioner in Germany, also noticed
how red blood cells improved with the application of microcurrents. So
the way that blood electrification is working, she observed, or I can see
in the blood is that the red blood cells become healthier, the circulation
is better for the patient, the red blood cell membrane potential is getting
better. Microcurrents improve blood circulation.
Langhammer continues, Patients say that they feel a lot more energy.
They feel like the blood is getting cleaned by the blood electrification.
They do have a good feeling with this therapy.60
An increase in energy is supported by research quoted in a patent for a
microcurrent device. The research paper indicates that ATP (adenosine
triphosphate) is increased. ATP is the molecule formed in the cell that
provides the cell and the body with energy to function. The research
quoted in U.S. Patent Number 5,133,352 for the treatment of Herpes
I and II states: Low voltage electrical current actually recharges the
energy level of the cell which changes the biochemical working of the
cell at micro levels. This has been shown in recent studies to increase
ATP energy production by up to 500%.61,62 Perhaps this is why
individuals suffering from CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome) often report
dramatic improvement in their energy level after blood electrification.
Microcurrents act as a pick-me-up as energy is increased.
The patent also states that protein absorption into the cells increased
between 30 and 40% with the application of microcurrents. Protein
is a nutrient our bodies use continuously, as it is crucial to keep our cells
32

in good repair. Increased absorption of protein is yet one more reason to

help us understand why our energy is increased and why the ability of the
body to heal itself improves.
Referring to blood electrification, natural health practitioner Dr. Jimmy
Scott says over-all healing is accelerated. Dr. Scott has observed that
the more important benefit is accelerated healing. Infections can come
and go and theyre gone, but healing is something we need to do all the
time. So, if we can accelerate that, augment that, help it along, then
we get huge benefits that we couldnt get without that.22 Microcurrents
accelerate healing.
To review once again. Microcurrents can: 9) improve blood circulation,
10) boost energy, 11) increase protein absorption, 12) accelerate overall
healing.
Thats twelve ways that microcurrents, as applied by blood electrification,
help to feed the river of electricity within and stimulate the body to heal
itself.
The effectiveness of microcurrents also applies to a pulsed electromagnetic
field (PEMF). Magnetic pulsing, as designed by Bob Beck, creates
microcurrents in tissue. Of interest is the discovery of physicist Gary
Wade that magnetic pulsing disarms pathogens in yet another way. His
research indicates the pulsed magnetic field creates ultrasound frequencies
in the cell membrane. These frequencies, he explains, disarm viruses and
bacteria but are beneficial to the cell. The level of ultrasound produced
is safe as it is one billionth of the ultrasound used in diagnostic medical
equipment.63,64
Research on the use of pulsed electromagnetic fields also shows blood
and lymph circulation is improved. As a result, the body benefits in many
waysreduced inflammation, reduced swelling, reduced stress, and pain
relief which all contribute to accelerated healing.34
With the variety of ways the Beck Protocol may help, it is not surprising
that some individuals overcome even serious illnesses. I like the way
33

Michael Hutchison put it in Mega Brain Power the electrical impulses

themselves, if delivered in the proper form and at the proper intensity,
must be like the purest nutrient.65

he electromagnetic energy of our earth is important to our health

and well-being. Space shuttles have built-in electromagnetic
fields to maintain the health of astronauts while they are away
from earth. So too, our earth must be constantly nourished: Without
lightning all life on the planet would die, stated
the late Eldon Byrd. As a medical engineer, Byrd
had many interests. He explained: Lightning is
the mechanism by which the earth restores itself.
Earth is like a giant battery or capacitor.64
In fair weather, electrons are constantly being
released from the earths surface. Lightning is the
mechanism that restores the earths charge. The
electrical energy of lightning, in turn, creates
a chemical reaction to sustain life. Nitrogen in
the atmosphere must be fixed or converted to
nitrogen oxides for use by plants. Back in 1936,
it was estimated that one hundred million tons of nitrogen are fixed
annually by lightning and carried to the earths soil by the precipitation of
rain, snow and hail.65 Nitrogen plays a key role in the nourishment plants
provide us.
As long ago as 1909, the electrical connection between plants and our
Earth in the far north was discovered by a researcher in Finland and
35

reported in Scientific American: The rapid growth of plants in the polar

regions has hitherto been attributed to the continuous daylight of two
or three months in summer, but this explanation must be abandoned.
Prof. Lemstroem, of the University of Helsingfors, Finland, finds several
reasons for believing that the cause of rapid growth in the Arctic is to be
found in the electrical currents which flow between the earth and the
atmosphere, and produce the phenomena of the aurora borealis. The
pointed leaves of conifers and the barbs of ears of grain facilitate the
transmission of these currents through those plants, and this function
supplies a reason for the existence of these peculiarities.66
Electricity is essential to the life of our planet and our bodies. Byrd,
among others, explained that the core of our earth behaves like a giant
crystal that is a key source of electromagnetic energy. So too our cells
contain crystalline structures to generate electromagnetic energy. Just as
the water in the body has a major role in sustaining our electrical charge,
so do the oceans of the planet have a major role in sustaining the earths
electrical charge.
A gradual decrease, however, in the earths magnetic field has been
documented. the strength of the earths field has decreased a total of
50% during the last 500 years A Japanese scientist, after 20 years
of research, has identified the effect of this weakening magnetic field on
the human energy system and called it the Magnetic Field Deficiency
Syndrome.67
Today we are suffering from magnetic field deficiency. Our bodies are
starving for gentle electrical stimulation.

36

Electricity for Health

in the 21st Century
Disease is not an entity, but a fluctuating
condition of the patients body, a battle between
the substance of disease and the natural
self-healing tendency of the body.
Hippocrates

ets return to the movie, Mary Shelleys Frankenstein, that started

my quest. Has science verified the intuitive knowledge of ancient
Chinasummed up with Frankensteins realization: I see, so
electricity is the key.? The research of modern-day pioneers has revealed
how both light and sound trigger our electrical circuitry. Our electrical
reactions, in turn, control the chemistrythe hormones, vitamins,
minerals and other nutrients that keep our bodies functioning.
Since Roman times we have evidence that electricity was readily accepted
as therapy for better health. Much later, with the advent of modern
pharmaceuticals, scientists researching and harnessing electromagnetic
therapies had to brave the scorn of peers educated only in the chemical
nature of the body.
What does our journey promise for health in this century? To keep our
electrical circuitry vital, we need to bathe in our natural environmentto
absorb sunlight and the electromagnetic waves from the beating of our
Earths heart. We can boost our health by choosing foods brimming with
photons and reduce our exposure to environmental pollutants that sap
our electromagnetic vitality.
In addition to breaking new ground to understand the nature and
function of our bodies, maverick scientists are developing gentle
electromagnetic therapies. The few devices weve touched on herald the
promise to come a cascade of choices devices that work on a subtle,
37

unseen level, to help us heal from the stresses that bombard us.
Our planet appears to be working to rejuvenate itself. The dramatic
increase in lightning strikes, earthquakes and changing weather patterns
are considered part of the process of a planet working to rebalance itself.
Given the right electrical nourishment, our body has the ability to restore
itself without cataclysmic reactions. Despite the stresses and pollutants
man must deal with today to maintain health, if we so choose, medicine
for the 21st century can be gentler. It will work to stimulate the bodys
own electromagnetic healing forces.

Electricity for Health in the 21st Century

- Carole Punt

ake a journey to understand the bodys innate ability

to heal itself. Discover how our bodies function
electrically.

This book reveals what conventional science does not explain ...
in simple, easy-to understand language. Appreciate the pioneers
who unraveled the secrets of our electrical nature and the modern
day researchers who are forging paradigm shifts in how cells
communicate. Explore how light and sound trigger the bodys
electrical system to stimulate energy and improve health.
Walk with the author as she discovers how products and foods
either enhance or inhibit our electrical systems and our health.

Carole is grateful to bring together three of her

passions by writing about ways to heal naturally on

a personal and global level with a spiritual viewpoint.
Her books, websites and video scripts provide
insights on the politics of our day with an emphasis
on health and healing - including how gentle
electricity heals.
