Fighting inflammation via Grounding aka Earthing

Thanks for sharing this and sending me down a research rabbit hole! 😂Grounding is something I've done somewhat instinctively since childhood, and still do occasionally (I go barefoot in my yard and driveway). I've never delved into the science of it or how it affects inflammation, but I will now - especially since I'm presently in a flare.

How often do you practice "earthing"? And do you think it has helped your Crohn's in any way?

I am surrounded by asphalt where I live and not near a beach or park where I can walk around barefoot every day. So I bought a grounding sheet as mentioned by that 94 year old tennis playing woman in the video.

I shredded by rotator cuff thru heavy weight lifting and the pain was keeping me awake at night. Didn't want to take Advil just to be able to sleep. The grounding sheet seems to work well for pain, at least for me.

Doctors are unsure if I have UC or Crohn's colitis but say it doesn't matter “since the meds are the same for both”. For me my Holy Grail is formed stools. Ordinarily to help me get to more solid stools I watch my diet and eat lots of compatible probiotics, but since getting the grounding sheet I find that goal is much easier to attain.
