Guest guest Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I have some theories for why we see the super-quick effective results with plain DC batteries vs the devices out there you can buy or make. 1. The effects of electricity on microbes are undoubtedly of several kinds. One of these may be simple corrosion. The degradation of the microbes is probably faster if they get " corroded " by DC current. Corrosion is slower with AC. It's the same type of corrosion you might see on your car battery or other batteries. It consists of things chemically torn apart by the DC current. 2. The power can be set higher if there's no pulsating feeling, as in Beck's device. It's hard to take that pulsating Beck device, the nerves get shocked, and you wind up turning it down. DC is an anesthetic, so you have to be more careful not to have it too high, or get skin irritation and sometimes minor burns. None of this has been reported as serious side effects. 3. By reversing current there's a period of time in which the conversion from one direction to the opposite direction is occurring. In a simple wire, this would be nearly instant. But in the body there's more changes chemically that have to be reversed. That can take more time than instant. By the time the reversal occurs, another reversal comes up, and undoes the last one. This can leave the microbe appear to be " unchanged " for some of the time it is exposed. During the transitions in which Beck devices switch over from one current direction to the reverse, the chemistry of the microbes is being set one way then the other way. So, possibly the damage to the microbe from corrosion in one direction is reversed by the switch to the other direction. Beck intended this effect to protect the body against corrosion (ionization, electrolysis, etc). But, it may also protect the microbe. 4. Pulses from Beck's device tend to open the pores of cells. This is a minor effect at the low voltage used in DC where a sudden spike only occurs when you connect the first time. But in a Beck device the effect is greater since you are going from a positive voltage to a negative one suddenly, so the spike is doubled versus going from zero to a voltage. In the Beck the difference between the voltages are higher, since one is positive and the other negative. If it uses 6 volt output to the body, the Beck spike is 12 volts.. +6, 0, - 6 will feel like 12 volts from 0,12. If these spikes affect the cells in such a way as to make them more porous, some substances or even DNA might enter the cells and cause reactions or " transfections " . A transfection is simply a case of DNA being artificially pushed though a cell wall by some process like electricity. " Infection " means the natural process by which a germ gets into you. Beck did report cases of toxic overdosing of meds when using the 4 hertz device. This could have been related to the spikes. But, it could also be related to increased cell metabolism leading to the cells' absorbing greater doses of meds, etc, than they would have in their less stimulated state. A meds dose depends on some assumptions, and this might have changed the equation to a greater extent than anyone had anticipated. The DC current users so far have not reported this effect here. That does not mean it won't happen, but in 6 years not reported so far. Many older people with meds are on this group, so I have reason to suspect that it is a rarity based on the lack of reports. Jury's out, but looks like " not guilty " , so to speak.. bG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
