PM Niteblum and friends
Here is what we answered Lori Miller when she wrote to us at the Earthing Institute:
As far as the comment regarding the meter reading is concerned, the trimester you describe cannot measure body voltage. You cannot use it to measure any reduction of electric field charges on your body when grounded via the mat. The meter you have can only measure electric fields in the environment which would have no meaning as to the working condition of the mat. When you are in contact with the mat, or any Earthing product, it will instantly eliminate any EMF induced charges on your body, such as the AC (alternating current) EMF radiating from the wires or appliances in the vicinity. Please refer to the Earthing book (pp. 42, 78-81, and Appendix B)or the Understanding Earthing (grounding) paper posted on the research page at http://www.earthinginstitute.net
As far as the "buzz" is concerned, some people who are so-called "electro-sensitive" may experience this in the beginning. Please refer to the FAQs (getting started section) on our website above. Such people sometimes have to start slowly with the Earthing, even a half hour or so in the beginning, maybe less, and then gradually increase, so that their body becomes slowly acclimated to the energy from the Earth. There is a lot of information on the website and certainly in the book. Hopefully you take advantage of these resources.
