A great article describing the forgotten idea that the human organism is not simply a "wetware" of cells generated according to a master blueprint (DNA). Apparently, as early as the 1920s there were devices that could diagnose even very early stage cancer by simply measuring voltage difference between different body parts. In order words, cancer was diagnosed as a build up of free electrons, which is an issue that has repeatedly been shown to be at the center of virtually all chronic diseases. Subsequent research showed that by controlling the electric current of the organism, the so-called "electrome", by applying external electrical current or by manipulating ion channels with drugs many other diseases can be treated including deep wounds, cancer or even severed limbs in non-regenerating species. As those studies showed, it is the "electrome" that controls the organism, not DNA. And the "electrome" itself is ultimately controlled by metabolism. In that model, there are no "evil" or "cancer" cells, only cells that have been isolated from the coherent field of the organism, and while they stay isolated they can do nothing but divide and grow.

Our bodies are full of electricity that could help us fight cancer

"...Your every movement, perception, and thought are controlled by electricity. If this seems unlikely to you, it’s probably because you assume electricity and the human body don’t mix. But just as electrical signals underpin the communications networks of the world, we are discovering that they do the same in our bodies: Bioelectricity is how our cells communicate with each other."

"...Bioelectricity is not the kind of electricity that turns on your lights when you flick the switch. That kind of electricity is based on electrons: negatively charged particles flowing in a current. The human body—including the brain—runs on a very different version: the movements of mostly positively charged ions of elements like potassium, sodium, and calcium."

"...This is how all signals travel within and between the brain and every organ and agent of perception, motion, and cognition. It’s fundamental to our ability to think and talk and walk. And it turns out, it also plays a big part in how our cells tell each other the systems in which they reside are healthy—or not. This has not always been obvious. Louis Langman, for instance, was ahead of his time. Working in the 1920s in New York City, he offered patients on his ward at the Bellevue Gynecological Service an unusual diagnostic for cancer: two electrodes, one placed into the vaginal canal and another onto the pubis. These allowed him to measure the electrical voltage gradient between the cervix and the ventral abdominal wall. If Langman detected a marked change in this gradient, he offered the woman a laparotomy to check if his suspicions were justified. The technique was surprisingly effective. Out of the 102 cases in which fluctuations revealed a significant shift in the voltage gradient, 95 were confirmed to have malignancies. The exact locations of the cancer varied, but they were often identified before the woman had experienced obvious symptoms. Langman and his co-author, the Yale anatomist Harold Saxton Burr, were among a small clique of scientists investigating the electrical properties of human tissue. They believed that all living things—from mice to men to plants—are moulded and controlled by electrical fields that can be measured and mapped with standard voltmeters."

"...Langman and Burr were correct, but their findings were poorly understood until 1949 when Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley discovered how ions help electrical signals hop across nerve cell membranes. That breakthrough, for which they later won a Nobel prize, should have sparked an explosion of research, including looking for ionic communication beyond the nervous system. But no sooner had Hodgkin and Huxley discovered this mechanism than it was eclipsed by another breakthrough: In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick announced that they had discovered the double helix structure of DNA. The entire discipline of biology rapidly reorganized itself around genes. Bioelectricity was relegated to a niche concern within neuroscience."

"...One of the earliest was skin cells, which generate an electric field when injured. You can feel this so-called injury current yourself: bite your cheek hard and then put your tongue on it. You’ll feel a tingle. That’s you sensing the voltage. The wound current calls out to the surrounding tissue, attracting helpers like healing agents, macrophages to mop up the mess, and collagen-weaving repair cells called fibroblasts."

"...But interestingly, he also found that people whose injury current was weak healed more slowly than people whose injury current was “louder.” More interesting still: Wound current strength declines with age, emitting a signal that is only half as strong in over-65s as in under-25s. This has led to a surge of interest in using our body’s natural electricity to accelerate or improve wound healing. Ann Rajnicek at the University of Aberdeen has found that if she used channel-blocking drugs to inhibit sodium ions, and thereby interrupt the electrical signals sent by the wound current in rats, their wounds took longer to heal. Could the opposite be true? Could amping up the skin’s natural electric field decrease healing times, or even allow healing of wounds that are extremely resistant to healing at all? Recent trials indicate that the answer is yes. Perhaps the most harrowing kinds of wounds are severe bed sores, which can take months to years to heal (if they heal at all) and attack tissue, muscle, and bone deep beneath the skin. Two recent meta-analysesconcluded that amplifying the natural wound current with electrical stimulation prevented them all from getting worse, and even healed some of the worst ones completely. Electrical stimulation almost doubles their healing. Similarly intriguing results have been obtained for non-healing diabetic wounds—the kind that lead to the amputation of limbs, which usually leads within a few years to death. Nor is the effect limited to skin. A growing body of evidence over the past few decades suggests that the same kind of electrical stimulation can accelerate healing in bone fractures—which may be relevant for treating or even preventing osteoporosis. There is even growing evidence the same cellular electric mechanisms could be harnessed to fix spinal injuries."

"...A recent study found that the idea of electricity being relevant in biology is still too novel and counterintuitive for wide acceptance. And even when clinicians have heard of it, they don’t know how to use it: No existing guidelines specify either the current type (direct? alternating?) or the parameters (how long should it be applied? how strong should it be?). Even the tools are not standardized. It’s little wonder that in the absence of clear recommendations, therapists prefer to resort to antibiotics rather than take responsibility for this intimidating set of options."

"...Cancer has been called a wound that does not heal. There are many similarities. For example, new blood vessels form both as wounds heal and as cells turn malignant, and there are changes to electrical signals in both cases. The difference is that in cancer, the signals never stop. As Langman and Burr suspected in the 1920s, cancers can be detected by their disruption of widely distributed bioelectrical properties of the body—disruptions detectable at locations far away from the tumor itself. Burr showed that if you implant a tumor into an animal, its body’s electrical signaling would almost immediately go haywire. Cancer is beginning to be viewed increasingly as a failure of communication; a misregulation of the field of information that orchestrates individual cells’ activities towards functioning as part of a normal living system. Individual cells “forget” they are part of a larger whole and treat the rest of the body as an environment whose resources can be exploited to feed themselves. This is a big departure from the mainstream view, which for decades held that what turns a healthy cell into a cancer cell is simply the accumulation of genetic damage. Mutations, the story went, lead to unlimited proliferation. But what if there was more to this story? Michael Levin at Tufts University was among the earliest to wonder if a cell’s inability to communicate normally with the body’s patterning networks was also relevant to the behavior of cancer. There’s growing evidence that’s the case. The electric fields generated by ions pumping across skin or organ tissue send cues to cells to start migration, which is also crucial in cancer spreading around the body. Mustafa Djamgoz at Imperial College London has investigated the role of a particular kind of sodium channel in breast and prostate cancer. These proliferate in cancerous cells, making them more electrically active than the body’s normal control mechanisms can manage. Such cells then invade other tissues, and metastasize. It’s not just metastasis that bioelectrical signals are implicated in. Frankie Rawson at the University of Nottingham has discovered that a different kind of biologically generated current is important in cancer by enabling energy reprogramming—another key aspect of cancer. Could cancer be reversed by controlling the bioelectric conversations among cells? In 2013, Levin’s group showed that they could prevent or reverse some tumors in tadpoles by using drugs to target their bioelectric signaling. The same drugs could turn cancer on and off at a distance, by treating the environment, not the cells themselves. In 2016 they restored normal bioelectric signaling in frog tadpoles with tumors. These had grown, spread and formed their own blood supply, until Levin added new, light-activated ion channels with gene therapy. That caused the cells to stop uncontrollably dividing—in fact, they reverted to a healthy state after the tumors had already formed. The cells inside them simply stopped being cancer cells."

"...Ultimately, wound healing looks rather like the kind of regeneration for which salamanders are famous—and indeed, Levin has demonstrated in several experiments that limbs and tails can be regenerated by bioelectric tweaking, even in species like frogs that are not naturally predisposed to it. This raises the prospect of future treatments that involve simply removing an affected body part and regrowing it."

"...Nonetheless, we keep discovering more about how involved and connected our cellular communication networks are, in and across all cells. Last year, Djamgoz found that suppressing his particular sodium channels with a drug could stop metastasis in rats with prostate cancer. He has already filed a patent to repurpose voltage-gated sodium channel blockers as anti-metastatic drugs."

"...The dream, within 10 or 20 years, is to use these insights to profile the electrical properties of biological tissues in the same way we have profiled its genetic basis—that is, to complete the human “electrome” and then use it crack the human bioelectric code."

This view seems to be like the basis for dr. Sheldrake's morphic field hypothesis. Did he just re-word something that was popular 50 years before his time?

Yes, those ideas were popular in the 1920s and then the genetic fraud took over. But now, bioelectricity is making a comeback and quite a few other groups are working on those ideas.
Electrical Fields, Not Dna, May Shape The Look Of An Organism

Also, Shledrake adds quite a bit of his own ideas such as his theory of consciousness and how we essentially all can tap into a common consciousness of sorts. Peat spoke about that when people asked him if our consciousness is something objective that exists independently of the body.

David Snyder uses this for everything from bad memories to cancer. Energy follows emotion and attention, and there appears to be a holographic field that can be manipulated quite easily.

This is a great articulation of what Peat has been teaching. The basis of energy generation is the flow electrons from glucose to oxygen to produce CO2 and H2O. Maybe that is the basis for ideas related to glucose restriction in cancer? there is already an over supply of electrons in the system and glucose is a source of electrons, in an organism that is already overwhelmed by electrons. Off course, a peat / bioenergetic inspired approach would be to increase the oxygen available to accept the electrons from glucose (via increased CO2 and the Boer effect) and by supplementing with other oxygen acceptors like quinones, Niacinamide (NAD+) etc. Perhaps this is also the basis for diabetes and "insulin resistance" - an oversupply of electrons and reduced availability of oxygen (when there is an overabundance of electrons from PUFA for example) causes a backup of glucose in the system that simply can't oxidize. You have span / reinforced a new perspective on things for me in this post Haidut. thank

So basically, earthing? The basic premise of earthing is that a positive body charge is not conducive to health (and can be measured easily from a body voltage meter) and this positive charge can be dispelled easily simply by standing barefoot in the grass/earth.

Unfortunately, most of us spend little time in nature anymore, and what little time we do spend in nature, we almost always have shoes on which insulate us from the earth even when we do step in the grass/earth. What's more, is that spending a lot of time around electrical appliances (computers, TV's, phones, and more) tends to build up electrical charges as a result of the electrical fields that they produce and since we spend our time indoors, these charges don't get removed properly)

This of course also doesn't count the sun, which most of us are also deficient in. You touch on this in your interview with Jodelle.

There's a text book for DO's of therapies based on bioelectricity that I've found helpful for a number of conditions. Author Franklyn Sills. Title: Craniosacral Biodynamics: The Breath of Life, Biodynamics, and Fundamental Skills. The therapies are essentially techniques for finding and unblocking the blockages haidut describes above.

Peat fans will feel immediately familiar with the book's Breath of Life concept, which is essentially Peat's concept of energy.

I got the book after reading Andrew Weil's account of a visit to a DO with a reputation for performing miracle cures of all kinds of complaints, from cancer to digestive problems to migraines to aching joints. He used a device to measure electric flow, although he also used his hands and said he could perceive electric flow better with his hands. He performed massage and thumping techniques on Weil that permanently solved whatever problem Weil had asked for help with.

There's a text book for DO's of therapies based on bioelectricity that I've found helpful for a number of conditions. Author Franklyn Sills. Title: Craniosacral Biodynamics: The Breath of Life, Biodynamics, and Fundamental Skills. The therapies are essentially techniques for finding and unblocking the blockages

What are the techniques?

Amaranthine, the book is 450 pages, so there are a lot of different techniques, and this volume addresses only the head. But one technique, for example, involves applying pressure with your thumbs at a specific skull suture that is easy to feel with your fingertips. Then you use your fingers to push against a lateral electrical fluctuation you are supposed to be able to feel from that suture to a place near the temples.

Another involves a kind of massage at the temples, using the fingertips of both hands, with your hands pushing simultaneously away from the temples, one toward the forehead and the other toward the cheek.

Different bones or parts of the skull are supposed to move around in certain ways in relation to each other and patterns of resistance to this movement are supposed to alert you to the potential for electrical blockage at that critical point. Supposedly the patterns of resistance get set in response to trauma that you haven't processed properly. The trauma becomes fixed in a chronic tension pattern that supposedly triggers stress hormones and can make you sick in all kinds of ways depending on exactly where the trauma occurred.

So basically, earthing? The basic premise of earthing is that a positive body charge is not conducive to health (and can be measured easily from a body voltage meter) and this positive charge can be dispelled easily simply by standing barefoot in the grass/earth.

Unfortunately, most of us spend little time in nature anymore, and what little time we do spend in nature, we almost always have shoes on which insulate us from the earth even when we do step in the grass/earth. What's more, is that spending a lot of time around electrical appliances (computers, TV's, phones, and more) tends to build up electrical charges as a result of the electrical fields that they produce and since we spend our time indoors, these charges don't get removed properly)

This of course also doesn't count the sun, which most of us are also deficient in. You touch on this in your interview with Jodelle.


Peer-reviewed, controlled studies are confirming the therapeutic effects of earthing: Earthing: Health Implications of Reconnecting the Human Body to the Earth's Surface Electrons. Notice the effects on thyroid hormones, inflammation and stress hormones.

Thanks, I appreciate it :): I might have to buy a copy and see if it helps!

The issue with energy work is that energy follows emotions, thought and attention. Which means that while the Bengston method will cure cancer in mice, it is highly limited with people who typically get cancer partially due to emotional issues. So Bengston method will provide miraculous healing and then the cancer reasserts itself and kills the client.

You are effectively swimming upstream if you rely on mere energy. It's really best for healing animals. That is why I like Snyder's methods since spinning takes care of emotional and energetic issues simultanously.

I don't think this is an "Earthing" issue. As in the concept of earthing with conductive mats, etc.

That kind of technique increases free electrons. The contention here is that free electrons are the cause of illness.

The people in that organization don't seem to be able to scientifically explain the effects. They kind of hang their hat on melatonin. Not a good way to go.

In fact that was my experience. The mat and bands made me feel woozy and sleepy. Melatonin.

Yes, those ideas were popular in the 1920s and then the genetic fraud took over. But now, bioelectricity is making a comeback and quite a few other groups are working on those ideas.
Electrical Fields, Not Dna, May Shape The Look Of An Organism

Also, Shledrake adds quite a bit of his own ideas such as his theory of consciousness and how we essentially all can tap into a common consciousness of sorts. Peat spoke about that when people asked him if our consciousness is something objective that exists independently of the body.

This is a great articulation of what Peat has been teaching. The basis of energy generation is the flow electrons from glucose to oxygen to produce CO2 and H2O. Maybe that is the basis for ideas related to glucose restriction in cancer? there is already an over supply of electrons in the system and glucose is a source of electrons, in an organism that is already overwhelmed by electrons. Off course, a peat / bioenergetic inspired approach would be to increase the oxygen available to accept the electrons from glucose (via increased CO2 and the Boer effect) and by supplementing with other oxygen acceptors like quinones, Niacinamide (NAD+) etc. Perhaps this is also the basis for diabetes and "insulin resistance" - an oversupply of electrons and reduced availability of oxygen (when there is an overabundance of electrons from PUFA for example) causes a backup of glucose in the system that simply can't oxidize. You have span / reinforced a new perspective on things for me in this post Haidut. thank

Does anyone know if there is a device that an individual could use on a regular daily basis to asses conductivity? So that they could be sure they are on the right track as far getting all those electrons used up for physiological (vs. pathological) purposes. Personally, my nerve signals are not making it to my feet and I am experiencing neuropathy, high blood sugar, elevated AGE's and A1c (I have been minimizing PUFA for years). Sounds like myself and others in position could benefit more from a device like that than a glucose monitor. I know there are biofeedback type devices out there but many are based on pseudoscience. I personally have a verified disrupted transport chain, something to do with succinate, also diagnosed with oxidative stress due to an imbalance of zinc to copper (not enough zinc to balance copper). My M.D. and also my N.D. want me to take lots of antioxidants and of course zinc plus some other stuff to correct this problem.

What comes to mind, perhaps, is what are called 'Bio-Circuits" or "Eeman Screens"

Eeman Biocircuits | Borderland Sciences Research Catalog

Yes they are quite a remarkable and very simple technology, developed by a man, L. E. Eeman, a British man injured
during World War I and who believed in the power of hands on healing and with some intuition and experimentation
devised a way to balance his energies.

Yes they work, and provide a very nice relaxing floating feeling.

@BRMarshall have you built or purchased one? For years I used a coil machine, similar to Rife technology, to kill Lyme and co-infections. It definitely was powerful and caused a herx response, but was too time consuming to be effective.

@haidut , @drk , @Nemo , @Owen B - all :):
So if a person is highly electrical do they need more or less sodium? I realize we are all a bit different in current, but I am one who drains watch batteries quickly, get static shock more than others, and lately (quite concerning) I can feel electrical current on my track pad and on cell phone to the point of making my arm ache. I have a grounding pad (tucked it away years ago), got it out recently, and my feet were buzzing- before I felt nothing. I've researched and researched and only one person had anything to say. He thought I was probably super high in aluminum. So I have started to detox that a bit with silica and chlorella. Any thoughts?

Nemo, sounds like a fascinating book.

@Zpol did you find any type of meter? I'd be interested. I'll try searching, "body voltage meter".

Yes I have used both copper and silk biocircuits, those that were made by Tools for Exploration, Terry and Leslie Patton who also wrote a book on the subject. Recommended! And of course you can find Eaman's work reprinted online. Yes you can put a biocircuit together for yourself very easily. Silk ties might be real easy way to go! One has to understand how to arrange things...and this would include the fact that for some people their polarities are different and the effect has a tensing quality rather than the floating cocoon feeling...
