| Electromagnetism and the Body
The Human Bioelectrical Field
Professor Harold Saxton-Burr, working
at Yale University in the 1930's, discovered that all living creatures
have a measurable electromagnetic field surrounding them. This field
changes when there are physical or even emotional changes in the body.
Thousands of painstaking experiments over several decades proved to
him that the field is primary and the physical body is secondary - that
is, the field is of a controlling nature. This means that changes in
the field are later followed by changes in the physical cells of the
body.
Several other leading scientists have
worked along similar lines since then, including Dr Robert Becker, who
was nominated for a Nobel Prize for his work on the effects of electromagnetic
radiation on living tissues. By applying controlled electrical currents
which modify these fields, Dr Becker was even able to partially regenerate
missing limbs in rats, thus showing conclusively that the actual physical
changes follow the change in the electromagnetic field.
Georges Lakhovsky, a Russian scientist
working in France, has been able to cause many physical changes, including
both the suppression and the stimulation of cancer, by influencing the
body's field. The strength of the fields needed to cause changes is
very small: far smaller than the strength of the fields to which we
routinely subject ourselves in our modern day to day living. The workplace
is a particularly rich source of these fields, notably from computers,
VDUs, lighting and photocopying machines.
The Earth's Electromagnetic Fields
The earth has its own electromagnetic
fields, but because mankind has evolved over thousands of years in these
fields, he is not normally adversely affected by them. In fact, the
Schumann Waves, which are pulsations of energy between the core of the
earth and the ionosphere are essential to life, and form a basis for
the "timekeeping" of biological systems - it has recently been shown
that even each cell-division is timed according to these pulses. When
the first astronauts went up into space, they suffered disorientation
and malaise caused by the lack of Schumann Waves. Since then all manned
spacecraft have had artificial Schumann Wave generators built into them.
There are two main things to be remembered
about the earth's fields: although they are comparatively weak, they
are still able to influence living creatures, and they are quite regular,
pulsing at frequencies that we have grown used to.
Electromagnetic Pollution
In the last 50 years our environment
has become a seething mass of electromagnetic smog. Mankind has changed
the electromagnetic background more in these last few years than in
all previous history. Estimates vary, but most experts agree that back-ground
radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation (EMR) has been increased by
between 100 million and 200 million times over that reaching us naturally
from the sun. The human body is a master at adapting to circumstances,
but there are limits! It is no wonder that so few of us ever feel really
fit and well. In the modern workplace and home the levels of EMR are
considerably higher than average background levels. For example, a standard
VDU emits seven different types of EMR: X-rays, ultraviolet, infrared,
pulsating VLF (very low frequency), radio frequency, ELF (extremely
low frequency) and static electricity!
The Body and Electromagnetic Radiation
The immune system is responsible for
protecting us from all external attack, including that from electromagnetic
radiation. Soviet work has shown that after brief exposure to EMR there
is a short period of increased immune system competence. This is the
normal reaction of a healthy immune system to stress. If the EMR is
continual or repeated however, then resistance declines below normal
and eventually becomes exhausted. Several well-known diseases, such
as peptic ulcer and hypertension, result directly from this stage, but
the most worrying result is a decrease in the body's ability to fight
infection and cancer. These effects have been found in experiments at
levels of EMR of about one twentieth of the nominal American safety
standard.
Despite ever increasing standards of
medical care and hygiene, new diseases appear with monotonous regularity
- most of them (for example Legionnaires Disease, Genital Herpes and
AIDS) being directly related to a compromised immune system. As early
as 1971, two scientists at the USSR Institute of Labour, Hygiene and
Occupational Diseases had identified a comprehensive set of symptoms
related to EMR. The first signs are low blood pressure and slow pulse,
followed by chronic excitation of the sympathetic nervous system (stress
syndrome) and high blood pressure. This phase often includes headaches,
dizziness, eye pain, sleeplessness, irritability, anxiety, stomach pain,
nervous tension, inability to concentrate, hair loss, and an increased
incidence of appendicitis, cataracts, reproductive problems and cancer.
The chronic symptoms are eventually succeeded by crises of adrenal exhaustion
and blockage of the coronary artery and heart attack.
What can we do about it?
The obvious solution is to avoid going
near to any EMR emitting devices, or to screen them. This would be a
partial solution, but still would not protect us from the background
EMR from radio and TV broadcasts, radars, landing systems, power lines,
etc. It is also very expensive, awkward and inconvenient to apply suitable
screening and totally unrealistic for most of us to avoid being close
to EMR emitting devices.
We have been working in this field for
the last ten years, and have found that it is possible to prevent many
of the effects of EMR on the body, without actually screening off the
EMR itself. We achieve this by using micro-crystals which we have programmed
with specific computer-generated frequencies. When these are brought
within the body's field, they have a strengthening and stabilising effect
on it, thus preventing the symptoms of the EMR Stress from developing.
We have incorporated the microcrystals into a credit card sized device,
which we call the Charged Card. This is simply carried in a wallet,
handbag or pocket by day, and left at the bedside at night. As long
as it is within two feet of the body it exerts its influence and protects.
The changes in energy levels can be shown using sophisticated bioelectrical
measuring instruments such as the Biotron, and also by Kirlian photography.
