Why People Use Grounding Pads And Earthing Sheets


By Cornelia White


Many people ponder about what earthing sheets could do that makes them different from other pads and sheets that people put on their bed. The short answer is that they have small fibers of silver and copper which conducts any electricity that builds up in the body to a grounded source. They go directly on the mattress people sleep on. When someone's body than comes into contact with them while resting or sleeping it becomes a grounding point to the earth.

They basically accomplish this through the use of a grounding strap. One side goes into the pad or sheet. The other side is plugged in the grounding plug of any grounded or GFI outlet with a grounding tab. With this simple setup all the excess electricity a body takes in over a month, week or day will be siphoned away from them through the grounding strap into the earth.

This is not a new idea and is suppose to have many surprising benefits for the people who use them. It is odd to think that in the past few hundred years or so people have somehow lost something vital to their health. More and more diseases have become prevalent that are related to the over abundance of free radicals in people's bodies.

The basic reasoning behind this idea is based on the thought that the earth is negatively charged. The human body generates and stores electricity in various ways. Just moving through the open air can often cause small static charges to build up in peoples' body. This may cause various things to happen within the body like muscle fatigue, increased blood pressure and headaches. Grounding may help to eliminate these charges and their possible negative effects.

Another relevant issue is the widespread EMF fields that surround everybody. It is a fact that everywhere you look people are constantly bombarded by a wide spectrum of radiation from things like computers, microwaves, mobile phones even household electrical appliances. There is also the radiation from radio and TV broadcasts, wifi, power line radiation and blue-tooth.

All this radiation could disrupt the flow of electricity someone's body. It could amplify the electricity in places where it should not occur naturally. The human beings evolved when none of this radiation was really present so it typically has no defense against them. Good grounding sheets may help dissipate these harmful fields while you sleep.

There are some other simple methods to ground yourself. Go swimming in the ocean's mineral water. Bathe in water with extra mineral salts added to it. Walk around outside with bare feet. Sometimes just stretching out and napping on the grass works.

If you do choose to buy earthing sheets and pads, always plan to take care of them. Wash them at least once a week with mild detergent and warm water. Never use fabric softener or bleach on them. They can damage them. It is best to try drying them on a low heat to help prolong the useful life of the copper and silver strands.
