- Electrically grounding yourself to Earth via the bed and the benefits explored.
1. Installing ground rod
2. Wiring copper romex wire to it
3. Feed wire into bedroom
4. Test quality of ground line
5. Show how ground line eliminates AC voltage read on multimeter
6. Run ground lines above mattress and below fitted sheet
As a line mechanic/Cable Jointer, the parts of your conductor that you burnt are less conductive now, using a clamp would have worked fine.
I was thinking the exact same thing, why didn't he just get a grounding clamp. Still this was a great video, he did an awesome job 👍
The most important factor in an electrical splice is pressure.
A simple clamp designed for grounding would be far better.

I live in a seconed story apartment. I made a home made canopy around my bed and idk if i should ground it outside theiugh the window or make a DIY outlet plug. Can you tell me exaclty step by step a list of what materials to get at home depot and how to install the ground or outlet and the safest way to go about doing it and where to put it so i dont get shocked? I'm new to this so it would really mean a lot. Thank you 🙏
Would duct tape wrapped around coil rod hinder the conductivity?
Would drilling through the nail and weaving the wire like a figure 8 be a good alternative?
Earthing & Grounding is proven and has lots of merit!! It's not really "out there" except for follks who don't want to think for themselves. Thank you for talking about it and showing DIY way 😃
It's not out there at all. What's completely out there is the things people accept as normal that kill them, and then label the good things as out there. Kinda like what you said but more cut & dry as to not give any room whatsoever to the ridiculousness and extreme willful ignorance that proliferates in this so called advanced contemporary western society.

He said it's right up his ally. He's in his alley way. That's funny.
Someone needs to download and copy this video. If I was more tech savvy, I would. Bless you for all of your hard work and research. Praying for all of the people affected by this disaster!
12:17 that microphone picked those sounds up so well i thought it was in my home
Thank you for spreading the knowledge of grounding/earthing and the benefits people can experience. Keep spreading the great info. 😀 - Live Life Grounded!

Nice video. Keep up the good work.
I use jumper cables from my nipples to the ground outlet on the wall..😎
That was so helpful!thank you
I would have to say this video is interesting informative and insightful....🙏THANK YOU 🤘
Howdy.
To supply one's body with electrons. Wear a conductive belt and a six feet bare wire to free drag along the ground. Connect a 9V dry cell minus to the belt and the plus to the drag tail wire ...
Regards.
Thank you for great info
Great video, just curious : now it is over a year, have you felt better? did you document your health before and after?
No shit
Thanks for the video. Very informative.
This video is from the US, right? You guys have grounding in your houses already. I'm not familiar with US building an electrical code. But it should be very easy to pick the grounding from one of your existing sockets. In fact most grounding products come with a set of cables and a special plastic plug to pick ONLY grounding from a socket. AND you want to have your bed clothing made from fabric with silver threading woven in it. It's not that expensive. Simple pieces of stainless steel sheet to make a foot or arms rest for you desktop where you spend hrs in front a screen are easy for DIY , bed clothing not so much.
I like the wire across the bed.. im using aluminum tape i just put across the top of the fitted sheet.. direct skin contact.. i just got copper tape to replace.. i might try the wire on top of the sheet next
Thanx!
Great vid thank you 😊
Great video!
I lay fine stainless steel cord that are wired to ground at where my bare legs rested on the mattress for direct contact. It works pretty well.
I did this but used a connector does it matter or should I wrapped the wire around the copper pipe? I also use aluminum tape placed across my bed.
GOOD SHIT. MANY THANKS.
Could you suggest if ESD or Anti-static mats be used on the beds for grounding? That would be a cheap alternative to buying expensive grounding mats/ save me the trouble of making one. Thanks!
Should’ve installed a flux capacitor near the entry point of the house. Gotta make sure the bed receives 1.21 gigs watts.
Hi friend thanks for the informative video
What kind of sheet? I’m curious to know if the effect of a cotton sheet or linen would work better vs polyester/acrylic/synthetic types that are so common. Plastics definitely slow down voltage frequencies.
Thanks for the video, did you get any improvments like better sleep or something with this ?
"that's not a pee stain" LMAO
To solder that wire to the rod requires high heat which the torch is and Flux or soldering paste to keep the copper from oxidizing and allow the solder to flow. Also heat the rod more than the wire at first.
was thinking the same thing, that's a lot of copper to heat up!

Hey, thanks for the video. I've been living in an appartment in a high-rise. So plugging anything directly into the Earth isn't workable. I was wondering if I keep a big flower pot with earth and mud in it, within the room, can this work?
Should I lay directly on the wire? Cause once I cover it with a sheet the multimeter barely picks it up
What gauge Romex didn’t you use?
Would Buried copper 12 gauge wire into ground and adhering other end to my iron swing give me any grounding effect?
Can you just make a plug with an earth wire that connects to the earth point in the power socket?
can u send parts list so I can try this
I love the idea of grounding. I walk on the grass all the time. I live in Florida, we are lightning capital of the world and the thought of having a copper wire that goes directly to my bed gives me the willies. My girlfriend had a tree get hit outside her house blew out everything electrical in our house. can you imagine being on your bed when that happens?
I wondered this too (I’m a native Floridian as well, lol). Wondering if there were no outlets used and only ground if the electricity would dissipate? Wish I knew as well
He is not getting energy from a socket. It's coming from the ground.
Yeah. Lightning only hits grounded people. That's why those in cars don't get hit. Wondering also how to protect ourselves from lightning.
Louisianian here and I’m worried about the same thing. Maybe instead of wiring the bed we can wear it on our wrist when it’s good weather. A little constraining but safer.
I would assume that the wire can be wired into it's own circuit breaker or high voltage fuse. Or, connect multiple wires to the rod, spiraling out in a star pattern thereby dispersing the lightning electricity in other directions. It's just a theory, so I don't know if it would actually work, but that's those are the two methods I plan to implement.
any idea how does the copper rod on the ground will react when there is lightening hit the ground? will it effect when you sleeping on the copper wire connected bed?
I thought the whole idea of grounding is to keep the electricity from you. We have a grounding pad on our bed and I would not be without it!! And, yes, it was expensive but worth the money!!
Yes, lets connect a ground wire directly to your bed. That way when lightning hits nearby, you definitely won't get electrocuted. 🤣
One year ago, so what happened? Did it work?
We have electromagnetic fields all around the house, and the voltage will warry just moving a 1 meter away due to the magneticfields strenght differs from one spot to the next. You have a pretty good reading compared to mine inside my bedroom, because when I lay down in my bed it's 3 volts, where you only had 0.8 at the most. It seems you have pretty low magneticfields running lose in your bedroom which is a good thing.
I also have 230 volt system which tend to give higher readings which equals worse.
All in all you proved it works and earthing is a very inexpensive way to protect oneself and family from harmful dirty electricity and other stuff like wifi, 4G, 5G etc.
Your an idiot

Nice idea !!one question is it possible to ground bed from the socket directly off course the neutral side
Do you think would be the same thing ?
Yes they sell those plugs online, but you need to check if your outlet is really grounded
@@Larsonaut thx !
@@youcandoit5126 You run the risk of exposing yourself to improperly grounded electrical wire or dirty electricity when using an outlet. It's ideal to run a dedicated ground rod and wire it up yourself. Just make sure its far enough away from any electrical sources or water.
You totally can its super easy it’s a special plug that is only hooked up to the ground you can check it with one of those meter detectors
It’s so much easier cheaper using less wires all over the place
The copper solder connections didn’t work out as great due to lack of cleaning the copper by scratching it with a abrasive pad and use of soldering flux, high heat on the torch isn’t necessary, just a pro tip.
I’m assuming your a plumber. I also cringed watching that lmaoo.
By putting a torch to the copper wind you actually weakened the continuity of the electric to pass through it. Once a metal is burnt it’s no longer feasible of the amount of current to pass through.
Doesn’t he just need some flux?
You should have just used a connector clamp.
@@Jeff-tractorToureg very true
Question: Would it work and be safe to just put a copper rod into the ground outside my window with a 2.2 kg copper wire wrapped around it, with the other end of copper wire fed into my window and wrapped around my foot...... Would that ground my body? Would this be safe? I have sandals with copper through the soles for earthing, so I just figured this would be similar to that
What im doin right now
Ty for explaining it wasn’t pee. Was very concern 🤣
He's one of the real people. I love it.
What's the difference between this method and the others i've seen on youtube where they bore a wider hole on the ground and fill it with salt, charcoal and sand alternately to the top? And they use only a GI pipe.
Salt does increase conduction
An electric outlet is no longer needed if you do an outdoor grounding nail?
No it is replaced by it. Household electrical outlet grounds are comprised by stray current from the curcuits.
Place the red probe in the 'ground' of the electrical outlet, and touch the conductive wire with the black probe. There, at home, I measure 540 millivolts. This is what comes from the outside, and what the body needs.
So ostensibly you could just ground your bed using the neutral grounding socket in a regular outlet and not have to run a grounding wire from a grounding pole?
A lot of people consider that dirty grounding and that grounding with the earth is cleaner.
Hell,,,buy electl wite strip d plasticrubber covering ,,,,dig the ground insert some wire,,,then pour the soil back,,,
On the other end connect the wire to the bed use natural cotton bed sheet ,,,cheaper much easier,,,less danger
Always connect the first DMM test lead probe to ground or to the neutral connection then connect the other test lead probe to the hot. If you connect the first DMM test lead probe to the hot connection 16:17 first the other lead becomes hot through the DMM and you could get a shock if you touch the probe tip. I would never sleep in a grounded bed unless it was in a hospital using a medical grade receptacle.

@@alexzemaitisjust don’t ground to an outlet. That will be detrimental
@@JamesR23 I keep hearing people say the opposite about both, some people say the outlet works better if your place is grounded properly and some people say it doesn't matter either way so idk what do. Why do you say that?
Hey brother how do you feel its been a year now. I literally did something similar today, and tonight will be my first night sleeping
So how do you feel after a year sleeping on this?
It's okay if it's pee, don't worry we've all done it 😂
I Wonder If you use more or thicker copper mesh on the bed if that would help out more, stand up to a lot of human movement on it?
I’ve known people to connect to the metal springs on the bed to draw the bad electrical frequencies away from us. I wonder if you can do both what the experience would be like on the body?
The other thing, what if you live in Apartment and you don’t have access to dirt/soil you can put into the “Ground,” let alone 8 feet into the ground. I was wondering if you could have bog “Plant Pots,” filled with dirt/Soil around your bed, it also looks good, if you could use these instead? I am going to try it. WISH ME LUCK!
Hey, same case here. Living in an appartment and wondering if running the wire to a potted plant would work. Have you had any insights on this?
You would need to ground to an electrical outlet in your apartment, by only using the ground on the outlet. I believe any grounding source would need to eventually connect you to the actual earth.
I used a 3ft grounding Rod which I hope is ok. I just woke up from a refreshing sleep that I assume the grounding had something to do with it. I ordered a multimeter to to make sure I am grounded.
google the placebo effect
I only remember one thing, it is that the electrical charge of the ground is only on the surface, and it is the beneficial charge that the body needs to be connected. The electrical 'ground' of the house or other, is deeper, and there is no voltage at this depth of the ground. This is why I pass a conductive wire through the window to get outside this natural electrical charge present on the surface of the ground. In the house, my feet are on a grid spindle trellis with 540 millivolts, and it's as if I had my feet in the grass all year round!!! You have to see it first on the multimeter. The voltage can vary depending on the steel rod used, or even where I attach my steel rod into the ground. No need to push it deep, only 30 cm maximum. Deeper, the voltage drops because I'm going too deep.
Hi I try to plug my own ground rod (using iron rod polish with cooper 9feet) - and connect the rod using regular cable that have cooper wire (1mm). when I try to measure the voltmeter and I touch the rod its give higher volt instead of zero volt. Any advise? Is there any maximum length of the wire so it can functioned properly - I'm from Indonesia a country that did not has the ground in plug system
If this is the case, you ground rod must have touch a cable or something thats electrified, use a voltmeter and check.remove the ground rod or buy a new one and put it in a place with earth/soil not hittinf any rock below it.also if its goods you will feel less pain and lower temperature within a minute.you dont need to hammer the rod too deep or even solder it to the rod.i just tied it .anytime i touch something charged like a AC/DC convertor i will feel immediate pain in my finger
Length of wire doesnt matter, i use 2.5mm thickness copper wire.
You may have a fault in your home and electricity leaching to the earth, check you electricity bill it will be higher than normal
Your body only has ground potential that means there is large resistance between you and whatever it is you're measuring you could never have continuity with ground, your body is made up of water which is not a good conductor
@@drincogni mate that's nonsense
Do you think it would help putting copper around my bed without connecting it to the ground?
m.th-cam.com/video/44ddtR0XDVU/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUSVGhlIGVhcnRoaW5nIG1vdmll
I bought metal tape 14 gauge copper wire and a big metal spike with holes in it to just wrap the wire in through and around and if I die my little dog will go with me but I’m sure as hell going to try it
Would love to listen to your video. Problem is it's almost inaudible. Can you do one with sound pls?
Hello, sorry for the issue. Everything appears and sounds to be working on my end. Can you check your setup for any potential issue? Thanks for the feedback.
@@simplydwell Hi. Appreciate you taking the time to respond. Have tried again with same poor audio. Also tried on my wife's phone and we still hear almost nothing. Not sure what's up.
If lighting strikes the cooper rod with cooper wire leading to the indoor mattress what are the chances of electrocution???
50 - 50
Depends on power of lightning strike.lighting struck a tree followed a path to a barracks and killed everyone in barracks in that case it wouldn't matter any way
And lightning strikes light up your bed, roast your ass ..sheeeeeeet!!
Your flame was all wrong and too far away. You hear the metal the push the solder into it this melts and bonds the connection. Good effort tho brother. How's it working?
I just made one too.
Okay, waaaaaay off topic but, what watch are you wearing in this video? LOL
Do you have to use the outlet? To ground.
You run the risk of exposing yourself to improperly grounded electrical wire or dirty electricity when using an outlet. It's ideal to run a dedicated ground rod and wire it up yourself. Just make sure its far enough away from any electrical sources or water.
By Code there should be a dedicated ground already in place for your homes electric system. @@KoreyConstable
Are you worried about it getting hit by lightning
1 small problem tho
What if the rod is struck by lightning 😱 while you where sleeping.
That’s not a concern. However, if he touches live voltage while being grounded, he’ll be dead-dead.
You should've used a grounding clamp on the rod. Still, great job. Did the rod have to be 8 feet? On the earthing movie, he just stuck a rod in the ground that looked to ge about a foot or so. Im very curious on what is acceptable 🤔
Housing codes in the US require that the rod be eight feet long. I believe this is due to the differences in conductivity between dry and wet earth, with the earth eight feet down being nearly always wet and, therefore, conductive.
@@sonofman70x7 I assume those requirements are for grounding a house's electrical system, not for grounding of persons. For lowest cost testing of grounding overnight, I kept it super simple: I bought the cheapest wire, ran it through my window, stripped the end, stuck it into the dirt a meter from my window, held it down with a rock. At the other bed end, I again stripped the wire and taped it to the sole of my left foot using microfiber tape. Even that level of grounding has been enough to convince me it's working. I have a grounding rod on the way to make things a little more permanent, but it's only a foot or so in length - more than enough. Eventually I'd like separate grounding wiring in my house (to avoid interference from appliances and such) with dedicated outlets in each room (i.e. the outlet only has a clean path to ground, not power).
I cut my 8ft rod in half...
Translation: Does the pipe that serves as a 'ground' need to be planted deeply? People walking on the ground connect with surface current. I planted a steel rod about 18 inches deep. A simple electrical wire goes from there into the house through the window, and I connect different things with this conductive wire which is my new 'ground'. I measure the voltage between this wire which comes from outside, and the 'ground' of an ordinary electrical outlet. I get a measured voltage of about 500 millivolts, or 0.5 Volts. I therefore see that the ground of the electrical outlet is of opposite polarity to the ground from the outside!!! Those who plug special mats in there will never have the desired effects if the polarity is opposite to that outside! I got a roll of squared pin at the hardware store, and I cut myself a rectangle measuring 15 x 36 inches, with black electrical tape all around to avoid poking myself with the pin. I plug in this pin rectangle, and I put it on the mat at my computer desk. You can barely fit your little finger into this spindle grid. Another pin rectangle of the same size that I put on my bed, not all night, but for a nap only. The pin keeps the shape of the back, from the head to the buttocks. It's cold at first, but it's brief. It warms up quickly. Plugging this pin into my bed ensures complete and uniform distribution of the ground's electrical charge over the entire covered body surface. For your installation, the way you arranged the metal wire on the mattress, I have the impression that the result is not optimal, in addition to having a sheet that covers the metal wire, the contact is not is not done very well. To have the 'ground' all night, I have another option. I connected the outer wire to a 5 inch long magnesium rod that I keep in contact with the body, no matter where, but on the skin directly, and I feel the energy passing through too! We can continue to discuss the subject, using the 'translate' function. I am from Quebec, Canada.
Your socket did have earthing already, so you could have put a copper wire directly in the socket. It doesn't work that way?
Yes, but connecting the actual earth is best since the electrical grid (outlets) have a lot of EMF noise, but if that's your only option, then that's better then no grounding at all. :)
Can't you use a home outlet and an extension cord by removing the neutral and hot prongs, leaving the ground prong and then use the exposed ground wire on the other end to attach to the bed?
Yes, you could; but if you ever get electrical feedback through the ground, it could energize your bed.
@SuperCountryboy777 yes sir C'mon baby light my 🔥
Yea I'm not plugging myself into any socket!
Some people report getting a negative effect from EMF that returns from the outlet's ground. This EMF, if it exists, likely comes from all other appliances that use the common ground.
that should be bonded to your house ground system as well. if a hot wire came into contact with that seperate ground system it would not clear a fualt. (trip the breaker)
Disagree use afusable link and is same as a breaker otherwise ground wires do sometimes come in contact with hot wires and don't trip the breaker.thats how some Electrical fires are started
Why not using the grounding from your electric socket?
Wow
Can you tell a difference in your sleep? I'm looking into doing this. I'm actually thinking about adding a breaker in the line just as a safty perception because of lightning hittingtheground outside. I saw a video on that some time ago they added a breaker in the line. Something to think about.
Thank you for the video, good job on the installation. 👍
Hello! Yes, I have noticed marginal improvements in my sleep and my wife's sleep. This was especially evident the first week of deployment. Since then I am not sure if I have grown accustom to it or if any placebo has worn off. Either way we are sleeping good and I have found that when sleeping in an ungrounded bed, the quality of sleep is not nearly matched. I do thinking adding a breaker of fuse is an excellent idea. I had that thought shortly have completing my install. The grounding rod SHOULD discharge any surge into the ground before allowing it to enter the bed, but who knows with a lightning strike. Thanks for the comment.
The breaker is a good idea
I heard it's enough to put the head of the bed edit due south. It's good for heart reasons
@@simplydwell a fuse will not help with a lighting strike.
@@thepitpatrol yes, a lightning strike will simply blow the fuse and still make continuity across the contacts. You need what’s called an “ark suppressor” but even then the amount of amperage in a lightning strike no amount of protection will prove ideal.
@@Jason-rn4jk yes we own two poultry farms with multiple computers on them. We have every device known to man to stop lightning and on direct strikes nothing helps.
Hello, thanks for the video. I will post a similar video soon, if you can take a look at and give any advice. I put a 6 foot rod into the ground, ran the wire to a yoga Mat I covered in aluminum and 100% pure copper tape. Which I have been sleeping in for 5 days now. When I use the red tester from my multimeter to the wire coming in from outside attached to the ground, I get a fluctuation of AC volts, it ranges. where I connected the main connection to the yoga mat, it reads 0.900 to 1.900. When I lay or place a hand on the mat, it Drops to almost zero. Many videos I've have watched saying there should be no voltage coming from the ground rod or wire attached . I have voltage, and many other videos I watched have the same. Can you give an update if your lead wire has any voltage from your grounding rod??
. Thank you for the video
Hello, thanks for the comment. Are you saying that when you connect one lead to the ground and the other to the matt? The two leads will measure a difference in voltage. The lead connected to the ground should function as a sink for any charge on the other lead. I suspect there is some charge floating around on the non grounded lead that will be discharged to the ground and will be measured in some fluctuating nature by meter.
@@simplydwell I will try it again. I placed the black lead is placed in the ground Hole to a wall outlet, I also placed it to a piece of metal. The red lead is placed on the mat or on the wire coming in the house from the grounding rod, I am getting readings from 0.800 to 3.00 vaults. I notice pending on the time of day, I will get higher or lower readings. I KNOW that this should not be. I can not understand why. I will make a video shortly and post link.
@@babybearjaxsonlongo1702 based on your last comment, your two leads are only measuring the difference in voltage between the house ground and the new grounding rod. If you want to determine if the grounding rod is working, you can compare the voltage reads when the leads are connected between the yourself and grounding rod and then between yourself and the grounding rod while sitting on the grounding mat.
Have you noticed a difference in sleep ?
@@j.w.726 I was sleeping on it for 6 to 7 hours. I did sleep through the night, but when I got up, it wasnt good. Just didn't feel right.
I started to use it 5 to 10 min here and there, or when I have back or leg pain. Honsetly, it HELPS, 100% HELPS
The last fucking place you want to be is between anything and your home's ground. God fucking forbid someone without a proper home ground follows this advice they run the risk of carrying a circuit's load through them.
Does the ground rod need to be 8ft? I also tested from the outlet to ground wire and got 124 volts. Also tip attach ground wire to alligator clip and buy farraday fabric under the sheets, works like a charm. I also used 14 guage wire from my ground rod 😂.
What made you choose 14gauge? Trying to decide for myself
@@joesabol890 no reason in particular, I think it what was available, I'd go with 12 if I could do it again, but works just the same
Housing codes in the US require that the rod be eight feet long. I believe this is due to the differences in conductivity between dry and wet earth, with the earth eight feet down being nearly always wet and, therefore, conductive.
What happens if lightning hits the grounding rod while you are on the bed?
Well they will receive a shock although the cable will act like a fuse and melt you will still receive a shock

Si le fil métallique est sous le drap, il n'y a pas de contact direct. Je te suggère de te découper un rectangle de treillis de broche quadrillée et de le placer dans le lit, directement sous les cuisses en contact direct avec la peau. Tu vas sentir la charge électrique naturelle du sol, et c'est ce qui est utile pour le corps.
Any reason you can’t just use the houses ground rod? 🤷♂️
If you can ground directly to the earth it's better since our electrical grid system has a lot of EMF noise within it.
I have a big pot in my bedroom with a big tree. Can I ground with cooper rod and wire inside it???☺
No that would not work.
Just wrap wire around your finger.
grounding / earthing brought me here. As a former electrician I cringe. Make the grounding Rod 8 feet deep just look it up. Also look up how to properly make connections. Also look up copper Vs stainless steel…… thought copper does have a better conductive property and what not stainless steel works better BECAUSE it does not corrode / rust / go bad in the elements especially in the soil 😂 but you live and learn. Your welcome
I work with copper every day, have for years. Guess what? It doesn’t rust or corrode. It’ll tarnish, maybe go green but it’ll never rust. Why do we use copper for drinking water pipes?
Yeah man, you need to score the wire and the rod, then heat very hot wipe on some flux and drop your brazing wire. You want to braze, not solder.
Notice anything different good or bad since, do you still sleep this way
Yes, still using it. I haven't noticed any negative side effects and the positive side effects are only incremental and may not be ones that I can detect.
Why does that rod have to be so long that's gone into the ground? I have only a short rod which came with a commercial grounding sheet. The rod is not copper either.
I don't sleep particularly well with so want to try with soft copper flashing on the bed. My bed close to window which is good. 🙂
Housing codes in the US require that the rod be eight feet long. I believe this is due to the differences in conductivity between dry and wet earth, with the earth eight feet down being nearly always wet and, therefore, conductive.
I get much better radio reception now I'm using an old electric blanket element which is grounded ... but I notice I get lots of nightmares ...
I dream about Mr. Tesla
@@ernietallman there are Tablets now to prevent these headaches ask for some Edison pills 💊 they work direct !
Next time you solder anything apply some Flux to the copper . Flux makes the solder stick!
I'm calling Nanny 911!
The body saturation reading was different from next to the receptacle at 2V as compared to the end of the bed away from the receptacle at 0.826V.
Can we get an update?
I’ll give you one. Essentially, if he believes being charged with free electrons is harmful, grounding himself would invite a constant flow of electrons through him making his body’s immune system work harder if this is a thing based on his logic… by not being grounded, the body’s capacity would be maxed out and the voltage would be stagnant. Grounding yourself is like trying to dry yourself off in the ocean. You’re surrounded by water and by drying off your body will only attract more water or defeat the entire purpose.
You ever hear of flux for soldering? 🤔
Sadly not using flux made his video less credible 😔
with that immune sys ... its the other way around... white blood cells shower phatogens with free radicals and those radicals pull out electrons - and that's how they destroy pathogens or damaged cell... and after this job, the rest of free radicals has to get reduced - so they take away electrons from surrounding tissues...
Nothing like some good ol' snake oil.
What the fuck.
