Reconnecting With Our Soil
Medical research shows that grounding decreases inflammation, which can be the cause of many problems in our world. Inflammation is produced by neutrophils. White blood cells incapsulate the injured cells in your body, whether this be from an illness or injury, and release reactive oxygen species. This process results in electrons being ripped from the damaged cell. Without grounding, some of the free radicals that are released in the repair field leak into the surrounding tissue, causing inflammation in the surrounding areas of the injured cell. If there aren’t enough electrons, the neutrophils will steal electrons from the free radicals, causing a chain reaction of problems related to inflammation which can eventually lead to chronic inflammation that can be physically silent to your body.
