Today, sensitive instruments show that man's mushrooming alternating current (AC) technology is interfering with the earth's magnetic fields. Noted researchers, including the U.S. Surgeon General, warn of the harmful effects of electric smog from television, radio, radar, electric blankets, water bed heaters, household appliances, power lines and other sources.
Magnetic Field Deficiency: The Cause of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome?
As cells perform their normal functions, their electromagnetic charge decreases. Under normal conditions, one of the sources of revitalization of these tired cells is the earth's magnetic field. However, within a typical home, the AC radiation is sufficiently prolific to overpower the earth's natural magnetic field by as much as 16 times. In today's modern buildings, the iron and steel alone can deplete the magnetic field by more than one-half.
Many scientists believe that the electro-pollution we face everyday may interfere with our body's own electromagnetic fields and impair our ability to repair ourselves efficiently, resulting in a host of maladies. In the opinion of these scientists, such maladies can range from headaches and fatigue to tumors, as well as the disruption of both circulatory and digestive systems.
Kyoichi Nakagawa, M.D., Chief of Tokyo's Isuzu Hospital, one of the world's foremost authorities on magnetism and its therapeutic effects on the human body, claims that the continuing degradation of the Earth's magnetic field, by man's electronic environment, is responsible for Magnetic Deficiency Syndrome (MDS). Its symptoms include stiffness of the shoulders, back and neck, low back pain, chest pains, habitual headache and heaviness of the head, dizziness and insomnia, habitual constipation, and general fatigue for seemingly no specific reason. Other doctors have hypothesized that MDS may well be the cause of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which does not have a definable cause in Western medicine.
Dr. Nakagawa has used magnet therapy on more than 11,000 patients. The primary complaint of these patients was muscle spasm in the shoulder and neck region. For many of the patients pain was already extending to the head, upper neck and down the back. With magnet therapy he was able to free ninety per cent of his patients from pain.
However, the most exciting news is that evidence from these studies and others appears to indicate that Magnetic Field Deficiency is like a vitamin deficiency, which means that once the vitamin or magnetic influence is restored, the body functions normally.
Perhaps the most important aspect of Magnetic Therapy is that individuals can learn to apply a magnetic pad as easily as they once learned how to apply a band-aid to a cut. It is non-invasive, low cost, appears to have few if any problems and, on the up side, delivers numerous benefits not available in pills and potions. In fact, Magnetic field therapy has proven to be so effective that an increasing number of physicians in this country are beginning to use it where conventional treatment has failed."
