Episode notes
PMF Isn't The Earth's Field
- PEMF does not literally replicate the Earth's static magnetic field because PEMF is pulsed and changing.
- Grounding is electron transfer, not tuning into a frequency.
Two Distinct Body Mechanisms
- Grounding transfers electrons via direct skin contact with earth surfaces.
- PEMF induces microcurrents in tissues through Faraday's law of induction.
Evidence Strength Differs Sharply
- Grounding research is limited with about 20 studies and shows tentative benefits for inflammation and sleep.
- PEMF has thousands of papers and multiple FDA approvals, offering stronger clinical evidence.
