Initiation
Grounding, or Earthing, refers to the process where the human body comes into direct contact with the earth's surface, either by walking barefoot outdoors or using specially designed grounding products. This practice has been around for thousands of years, but in recent decades science has begun to understand and document the many health benefits that grounding can provide. In this article we will explore the health benefits of grounding, the science of the back, and how this simple practice can be integrated into modern life.
What is grounding?
Grounding refers to creating a direct electrical connection between the human body and the earth's surface. The earth's surface carries a naturally negative electrical charge, mainly due to continuous light discharges and other atmospheric processes. When the body comes into contact with the soil, either through the skin or via grounding products, these electrons can flow into the body, where they act as powerful antioxidants and help to neutralize harmful free radicals.
Health benefits by grounding
-
Reduction of inflammation: Grounding has been shown to reduce levels of inflammatory markers in the blood, which can help relieve chronic inflammation and prevent diseases such as heart disease, diabetes and autoimmune conditions.
-
Improved blood circulation: Studies have shown that grounding can reduce blood viscosity, which improves circulation and reduces the risk of blood clots, stroke and heart attack.
-
Better quality: Grounding can help to sync the body's inner clock with the earth's natural rhythms, resulting in deeper and more relaxing sleep.
-
Reduction of stress: Grounding has a balancing effect on the autonomic nervous system, which contributes to reduced stress, anxiety and improved heart rate variability (HRV).
-
Faster wound healing: By improving blood flow and reducing inflammation, grounding can accelerate the healing of wounds and damage.
-
Improved energy level: Grounding supports the mitochondrial function in the cells, which is crucial to the production of ATP, the body's most important source of energy.
-
Improved hormone balance: Grounding has been shown to normalize cortisol levels, which can contribute to better sleep, reduced stress and general hormonal balance.
Scientific basis
The grounding's health benefits are deeply rooted in the body's electric nature. All cells in the body are electrically active, and the proper functioning of cells, tissues and organs depends on a carefully balanced electrical charge. When this balance is disturbed, either by environmental factors or illness, it can cause inflammation, oxidative stress and a variety of other health problems. Research has shown that grounding can help restore this balance and thus support the body's natural healing processes.
