Electrical Current Level

Why did you choose .13mA-.25mA to be the target current range for your Microbe Electrifier?   The original research with doctors Kaali and Lymann showed that 100µA was applied to electrodes with a surface area of 13.3 square millimeters. That resulted in 99% less infected & enlarged T cells (syncytia) by viruses after 4 days compared to human T cells mixed with HIV-1 not electrically treated. 50µA resulted in 95% less syncytia (ie: 95% less infectivity by HIV). 100µA across those electrodes equates to 7.7µA (.0077mA) per square millimeter. So to equate that current density (the most important parameter) through blood in your arms brachial artery* (that runs from elbow to elbow) that has an average cross sectional area of 16 square mm you need to multiply 16 by 7.7 to get .124mA, whereas 50µA equates to .062mA  from a blood electrifier. But the electricity winds up in both arteries (see below) crossing the body between the shoulders and so this amount needs to be doubled in order to maintain the same current density. 2x62=124 and 2x124=248. So that is why the current light comes on between .13 and .25mA (130 and 250µA). Using the electrodes wrist to wrist does not necessitate applying more than .25mA for optimal effectiveness. Also a smaller current level reduces the possibility of bad skin reactions and transfection.

Can a person turn up the current to a level higher than .25mA? Of course they can but its not clear if there is any advantage to that. Each person has a different sensibility to electric current as far as when they start to feel it and how much they can withstand without damaging the skin. Women generally have more delicate skin and should be more cautious. First you should use the unit below .25mA until you no longer get any reactions from using it (2 hours) and then you can experiment with turning up the current to where you start to feel it without it being too uncomfortable. That may result in as much as .5mA current. Just be sure to inspect your skin before each use to see if the higher current setting caused any damage from the day before. If so, then choose a different location to place the electrodes and don't turn the current up so high.

What is the importance of having a set amount of current being output? The idea of how much current to apply and for how long depends on your reaction to it. The target is to use it just enough to cause the slightest of headaches. But if you aren't using the same exact amount each time then how can you expect the same results each time? Let's say, with a common Beck Electrifier without current detection, you used .22mA (unknown to you) for 30 minutes and the next day felt slight headache and tiredness. You want to do exactly the same thing until you no longer feel slightly affected which may take a week before you can increase the usage time. But each time (without a device with current detection) you use it you will be applying a different level of current and getting different results. It makes the whole process unregulated and sloppy and unpredictable. If you use my device and rely on the current detect light to make sure you are applying the right amount of current each time then you will have less ups and downs in your results. And your progress will be smoother. Also there are people scared of electricity who when they use the device hardly turn it up at all and get very poor results. With my device they know that they have to turn it up far enough to turn the light on. In other words, it insures they won't cheat themselves.

Current dispersion and reconcentration in the arteries

Here we see the human body's arterial system. From each cell in our body runs a super small capillary which connects to a larger vein, which connects to a larger artery. In the center of the body the arteries from the arms have very few veins connecting to them. The main things connecting to them are the arteries going up to the head and down to the rest of the body.



Below you can see a representational drawing of the arms blood system and the heart. Any electrical current that would like to cross over from one artery to the other at the heart cannot because the heart is actually two pumps that seperate the oxygenated blood (red) from the de-oxygentated blood (blue).


Below you can see alternate current paths of the electric current as it leaves one electrode and journeys towards the other one. Electricity leaving the electrodes can go into the muscles just as easily as into the arteries because the muscles are bathed in electrically conductive blood. But before the current reaches the shoulder area most of it reconcentrates in the two large arteries as it has travelled from the muscles to the capillaries to the veins and to the arteries.


The main conclusion is that between the shoulders is where the current is most concentrated as most of it is condensed into the arteries. This is where the calculations should have relevance to the current densities used in the lab tests against HIV (50-100uA per 13.3mm2 electrode surface).
