is there any healhy effects of electricity to the human body?

Low electric potentials pass all over your body to keep the heart,nerves,muscles,blood healthy and to keep you alive.E.C.G.,electro neuranogram,electro retinogram,electromyogram ,ESR(erythrocyte sedimentation rate)and Electro encephalogram are useful diagnostic tools which measure electrical potentials in your body.The danger is only from high voltage alternate current outside your body.

no it is not harmfull however if lightning stikes at your house or a neighbours your electricity will surge therefore damaging everything that is pluged into an electrical socket. \n\nit is not harmful if nothing near you gets struck by lightning!

It can activate the flow of energy along meridian lines.\n\nthere are many other therapies that also utilise these energy paths, or meridians, without breaking the skin, that are worth considering too

On a lighter note...I would love to be able to answer your question, but this computer keeps hanging!!!\n\nSorry, but I couldn't resist that one! On a more serious note, there is no doubt in my mind that very little is truly understood about the electrical and / or magnetic effects of some people. I must confess that I do not suffer from such experiences, however I do know people who do.\n\nFinally, just imagine all the people who are trying to reply to you but they can't get close enough to a computer!

Wizzard is almost right, except for the part about your body being a good insulator except for your hair.  The truth is, most of your body is a good conductor not an insulator.  Water conducts electricity, and since 70% of your body is water, you conduct pretty well.  \n\nSince like charges repel eachother, when your body carries an electric charge, those charges are going to try to separate from each other as much as possible.  They are going to go to the extremities of your body, like the hair folicles on your skin and head, and then they're going to try to separate even more.  Since your hair is very light, even a little charge can be enough to push the hairs apart and make them stand on end.

electrical shock is no joke if your talking 110vac or higher, it can cause heart failure you should be monitored for 24 hrs, also you could be burnt in the inside of your body. less of 1 amp can kill you

Hi There \n\nReflexology does work to answer your question. The body has energy centers all over and sometimes they become trapped and dont flow as normal. This is where the practice of this method helps to generate the normal flow of energy and the body can start healing itself. \n\nHere is another form of energy healing that I think you will find very interesting. Called Pranic Healing and Ive never experienced anything so powerful. Ive helped several people and It took very little time to learn. (pranichealing.com)\n\nBest of health to you\n\nCheers

While any amount of current over 10 milliamps (0.01 amp) is capable of producing painful to severe shock, currents between 100 and 200 mA (0.1 to 0.2 amp) are lethal. Currents above 200 milliamps (0.2 amp), while producing severe burns and unconsciousness, do not usually cause death if the victim is given immediate attention. Resuscitation, consisting of artificial respiration, will usually revive the victim

Things are only affected if they are charge particles in electric fields. I don't think there are any charge particles in plants significant enough for an electric field to cause a change in it.

It is very unlikey that you would survive the current associated with that sort of electroporation, as it would be quite substantial to effect you in the same way it effects the cells used to generate hybridomas. For example, people struck by lightning sometimes display some symptoms you might expect from a minor electroporation effect. In short, the current necessary to have the effect would likely hurt you in many ways, like stopping your heart, than the electroporation would.

Ninjas used to build up immunity to toxins by poisoning themselves with the very substance they used IN SMALL QUANTITIES....The human body will realize that it is being invaded by a foreign substance and will fight it off.  T-Cells will produce an antibody that destroys the toxin and will remain in the bloodstream encase that toxin ever comes back.  Larger doses over time will increase the antibody load until the toxin would be rendered useless against a person who has "self immunized."  (Ever wondered what the flu shot really was?  TAKE A GUESS!!!)\n\nAs for electroshock.....I don't think that the body can tolerate shock.  (Depending on severity.)  The body relies on electricity in a small part to regulate heart beat.  A few shocks could send the heart into arrhythmia and lead to heart attack.

Current kills, not voltage.\n\nThe number of volts in an electrical is not so much as important as the current (amps) which are carried through the body.  If you have ever been shocked by static electricity or a Van de Graaf generator, you have experiences (and lived through) shocks of very high electrical potentials (very high volages), but the current was just too low to really effect you.\n\nIt does not take much current to stop a heart, just a few tenths of an amp (not a lot at all) can kill you if it runs through your body the right [or in this case, wrong] way,\nhttp://www.physics.udel.edu/wwwusers/watson/scen103/colloq2000/safety.html\nhttp://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~p616/safety/fatal_current.html\n\nBut to get back to your question,\nit is entirely possible to be killed by sticking a screw driver into an electrical socket...this probably wouldnt be a good thing to test out though.  If you are grounded when you stick the crew driver in, the current could travel through the screen driver, into your arm, perhaps through your chest and heart, and down your leg.

The ECG is a very good study but it has many limitations.  It is very reliable at detecting problems that interrupt or change the electrical energy paths through your heart.  The heart has two major systems though - the pumbing and the electricity.  Sometimes one systems affects the other but sometimes not, too.  There are plenty of true heart attacks, for instance, that demonstrate no or very little change on the ECG.  As well there are plenty of benign conditions that change the electricity (from "normal") and turn out to be nothing more than a congenital malformation in the way a person's heart works.  Finally ECG's are a moment in time - they are very poor at predicting what might happen in the future.\n\nIn short, just because you had a normal or abnormal ECG, it may or may not mean anything and it certainly doesn't tell you what might happen tomorrow.  It needs to be assessed in context of other markers or symptoms.

its just static electricity as far as I know caused by friction such as when you rub a balloon on your head and your hair raises. Also our bodies are naturally full of electricity

In a word, NO.  Now, in a much longer paragraph... :-)  After many years of study, there's not any conclusive evidence that exposure to WiFi (RF frequencies) has any effect whatsoever on living things and there are generally no health concerns, even if you placed your access point under your pillow.  RF exposure involves frequency, power and the duration of the exposure.  The human body most efficiently absorbs radio frequencies in the 30 to 300MHz range, and WiFi is at 2.4GHz.  So not only is the frequency much different, but WiFi products have strict power and RF emmissions requirements, such as 100 milliwatts maximum output power.  Plus, the WiFi RF energy is not "ionizing radiation" like it is UV light and Xrays, so WiFi frequencies pose no danger to human DNA the way prolonged sunlight UV rays cause skin cancers... What is actually of more concern is the RF energy from nearby FM radio stations!  (But they've been around much longer than WiFi, studied extensively, and again, nothing conclusive about any health concerns.)

yes every thing i touch schocks me  \n\nWe usually only notice static electricity in the winter when the air is very dry. During the summer, the air is more humid. The water in the air helps electrons move off you more quickly, so you can not build up as big a charge.

First you have to know "Static electricity" is not electricity which is static. \n\n"Static electricity" is all about charge-imbalance, and it has nothing to do with charges at rest. "Static electricity" was misnamed.\n\nWhen we scuff our shoes upon a rug on a dry winter day, our bodies typically charge up to a potential of several thousand volts with respect to the ground. In physics this is a well-known fact, and is easily verified by meter measurements. Touch a grounded object, and a spark will leap between the object and your fingertip. This kind of electric spark can only exist when a high voltage is present. The tiniest spark requires about 500 volts. Big, nasty, painful sparks require lots more voltage, up to several thousand volts. But even when no sparks are jumping, there is still a high voltage between your charged body and the ground, and your charged body is surrounded with an invisible electric field.\n\nThere are many way you can eliminate it, Refer to this web you can will able to know.\nhttp://www.school-for-champions.com/science/staticcont.htm
