Electrolysis between the feet and the ground and its probable health effects.
This paper describes experiments which show that a person with bare feet on the ground or with conducting sole shoes, sets up between his feet a redox cell, and that current of a significant magnitude flows up one leg and down the other. It suggests that this electrolytic activity could have very wide significance in various aspects of health.
