The Sleuth
I Heal the Body Electric
March 8, 2006

It's a fascinating fact: Our bodies are as much electromagnetic systems as they are biochemical ones. According to the most cutting-edge modern science, both views are valid.

Dr. Bruce Lipton, an eminent professor of biochemistry and expert in cellular behavior, recently wrote the book The Biology of Belief. I highly recommend it. It’s easy to read and understand, carefully documented with extensive references to peer-reviewed journal papers and groundbreaking in scope and impact.

In his recent book Science and Human Transformation, world-renowned Stanford professor of materials science Dr. William Tiller articulates the case that much of modern science, including medicine, still operates out of a mechanistic paradigm. That is, the body has been viewed as something similar to a car. An artery's not working? Snip out the damaged part and tie it back together. Or replace it.

Tiller points out that the emerging paradigm -- supported by vast amounts of experimental data -- is one of a system in which living energy fields interact. This gets really interesting and practical when you consider that some companies have developed appliances to enhance the body's own healing powers.

One of my friends is Dr. Thomas Valone, Ph.D. in physics and a former U.S. patent examiner. Tom is, among other things, author of “Electrotherapy With Tesla Coil Design: Introduction to Bioelectromagnetics,” a revealing look at the history and promise of using electromagnetic fields to accentuate the body's own healing mechanisms. Tom recently brought to my attention the work of Glen Gordon, M.D.

Dr. Gordon is one of the pioneers in pulsed electromagnetic healing. This technology uses very fast (8-nanosecond) pulses of electromagnetic energy to help the body heal. He claims to be the first physician in the United States to use pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) on soft tissues in humans. The technology has been studied by NASA in a four-year, $3.5 million study, with very encouraging results.

Amazingly, according to Dr. Gordon, the United States is the only major industrialized country not currently using PEMFs. (Could this be due to us having the highest costs in the world to get new medical therapies approved?) In 1980, his team received the first investigational device exemption issued in the United States to study low-level laser effects in soft-tissue injuries.

It turned out that PEMFs generated inside soft tissue by the laser were responsible for the results they were seeing. This led to the development of a hand-held, battery-operated device that Dr. Gordon now sells for around $200.

The benefits are manifold:

-- The body's own natural antioxidants are enhanced to neutralize damaging free radicals much more rapidly. This also helps control inflammation, a culprit in many diseases

-- When death is threatened by massive release of improper particles into the body (which happens with many life-threatening illnesses), this technology can help prevent tissue decay for many crucial minutes, and in some cases hours, while other help is on the way

-- 40% increase in growth hormone production

-- Overall, it can in many cases treat inflammation, illness and aging symptoms with no side effects.

*************************************

Sadly, some parties within the American Medical Association and the Big Pharma lobby have worked to prevent widespread acceptance of PEMF by the mainstream of U.S. medicine.

Dr. Gordon believes PEMF may eventually nearly eliminate the need for the pharmacological industry. There are 2.5 million deaths a year from hospital-administered drugs; 200,000 of those are from gastric bleeding.

I wouldn't go that far, but just consider the possibilities of this technology as an adjunct to traditional medicine. Something has no risks and potentially huge benefits -- why not try it? At a recent conference, Dr. Gordon told of how he had a massive heart attack several years ago, a quintuple bypass. His doctors said he would need a transplant to live.

He put the PEMF device in his pocket next to his heart, and he never had the transplant. Later, he did a 2,500-mile solo bicycle trip to show himself and the world that he was healed. He's gearing up now for another trip. You can learn more about this device by visiting http://www.em-probe.com.

(Note: Neither I nor anyone associated with The Emerging Capital Report receives any financial benefit from Dr. Gordon or his work.)

I have heard other such anecdotal reports from other sources I deem credible. Of course, anecdotal reports are a far cry from large, carefully controlled peer-reviewed studies. Those are the gold standard in medicine, and rightly so.

The problem is that since there’s nothing to patent here, no one is likely to invest millions of dollars in backing such research. But eventually, it may happen.

Meanwhile, I continue to use my mental scale, which has guided so many decisions to interesting conclusions: If something has little risk and large potential gain, I’ll explore it.

To your profitable future,
