SCIENTIFIC EXPLANTIONS OF HOW BIOMAGNETS WORK

The claims made above do not follow standard physiology. One claim was that a cell?s interior was positive and the outside, negative. Leonard R. Johnson, author of Essential Medical Physiology (15), first of all, states that a cell?s interior has a negative charge with respect to the outside of the cell. This enables the cell to diffuse substances in and out of the cell efficiently. The above claims about the inflammatory response are also incorrect. The word ?inflammation? actually means, ?to set on fire?. The body?s response to tissue damage is not a constriction of blood vessels that causes a lack of blood flow to the damaged tissue; the body actually increases the blood flow to the injured area, causing the tissue to feel ?warm? and to swell. After researching numerous physiology textbooks, zero information was found about cell ?polarity,? therefore the idea of magnets being able to ?realign the cell?s polarity? is not possible. There also was no scientific evidence to back up the claim of magnets acting like a catalyst on the body.
