What Is Earthing
“There are many ways to fight chronic inflammation, including pinpointing the symptoms and adopting an anti-inflammatory diet. And some even believe it could be as simple as kicking off our shoes and frolicking barefoot through the grass.
This process is called “earthing.” Also known as grounding, the idea is that making direct contact with the electrical charge on the Earth’s surface, through the skin, can remove free radicals from the body and return it to homeostasis, easing inflammation and preventing autoimmune diseases.
According to Clint Ober, author of Earthing: The Most Important Health Discovery Ever, “If you have chronic pain, you have chronic inflammation – the immune system’s chronically producing free radicals, eating up the body.” He says these positively charged free radicals are always searching for negatively charged free electrons to bind to.
Comprised of water and minerals, the body is an excellent conductor of electricity. When someone is grounded, the body absorbs free electrons from the Earth (the presence of these negatively charged electrons is documented in Lectures on Physics by Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman), which then neutralize the excess free radicals in the body, preventing tissue damage, and therefore stopping the immune response and bringing the body back to a normal state.”

Reduced Inflammation
Grounding reduces or even prevents the cardinal signs of inflammation following injury: redness, heat, swelling, pain, and loss of function (Figures 1 and and2).2). Rapid resolution of painful chronic inflammation was confirmed in 20 case studies using medical infrared imaging.
