'Grounding' i.e. walking barefoot in mud beneficial?: Debate between Sridhar Vembu and Liver Doc, find out what the science says

Known as 'The Liver Doc' on social media platform X, Dr. Abby Phillips is frequently in the news. He is known for presenting scientifically reasoned arguments against misconceptions associated with healthcare. Recently, Zoho Corporation co-founder and CEO Sridhar Vembu and AB Phillips had a heated debate over the benefits of walking barefoot in grass. Sridhar Vembu is the 55th richest person in India, but he is not a doctor. Sridhar Vembu shares his personal experience of walking barefoot in his farm for almost a year. He said that walking barefoot in the grass has many health benefits and is a very simple task. Its special thing is that it does not cost a single penny. He encouraged others to try it and suggested that walking on natural surfaces like grass is beneficial in connecting with the earth's energy. In response, Dr. A.B. Phillips wrote that walking barefoot in the grass is a purely pseudoscientific practice (meaning a practice that people have been doing for years as scientific, when in fact there is no scientific rationale behind it. This debate raises the question of which of the two is more That's right. Today we will talk about grounding. What is grounding? For this, bare feet can walk on the ground can touch the ground with or any part of the body can come in direct contact with the ground. The logic behind this is that our body is a bio-electrical system. When we are physically connected to the ground, its electrical energy to our own electrical energy Rebalances. People who support grounding believe that diseases have increased in the past because we started wearing shoes and slippers made of rubber. Rubber is a poor conductor of electricity so our electrical energy becomes unbalanced and we get sick. What are the correct methods of earthing? There is as much debate about whether earthing is beneficial or not, as there is a debate about its technique. Some people believe that earthing requires our body to be in direct contact with the ground. While others believe that if one uses any product that works on electricity, it has the same benefits. However, Massachusetts Hospital neurosurgeon Dr. Mark Albers believes that if someone is touting the benefits of grounding, he is asking to stay away from all electronic devices for a period of time among trees, plants, and grass. This is because studies conducted so far have not revealed any connection that can confirm that grounding has any health benefits. The benefit of this is to spend some time alone among the trees and plants, away from all the worries of the world. All these methods are part of earthing technique. The good thing about these techniques is that they take us away from the hectic pace of life for a few hours or a few days. Walking in the midst of nature has certain benefits for mental and physical health. What are the benefits of earthing Not much research has been done on the health benefits. The studies on which its benefits are discussed have very small sample sizes and data that are not very accurate. Therefore, doctors and scientists say that very concrete claims cannot be made in this regard. It is generally said to have 7 benefits. Mark Albers refutes these claims Dr. Mark Albers says that being close to nature definitely benefits physical and mental health. By keeping the mind and body in good shape, it is also possible that it can help treat some chronic health conditions. However, the claim that earthing can prevent or cure diseases does not seem logical at all. Are there any disadvantages of grounding? Dr. According to Mark Albers, although the scientific arguments given for grounding are not sound, it has significant benefits. However, care must be taken while implementing it, otherwise it can cause many types of harm.
