Blood electrification

Blood electrification is a method of alternative medicine that claims to kill viruses, bacteria and other pathogens present in the blood using small amounts of electrical current, called microcurrent (on the order of microamperes). The clinical use of microcurrents against pathogens is not FDA approved.

History
Blood electrification was re-discovered in 1990 by researchers William Lyman and Steven Kaali, who observed that low electric current inactivated the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) but did not adversely affect healthy human blood cells in a test tube. They patented two devices for treating infected blood..

Robert C. Beck, DSc. physics, examined the patents filed and noticed the required amount of current could be easily driven through bare skin, via electrodes, and used this non-intrusive method as part of the "Beck protocol". Beck also noticed that the filed patents made reference (from before the turn of the previous century) to #592735 patent for "Electrically Treating Liquids" 1897-02-23--Its primarily intent was a substitute for pasteurization of milk, but any liquid could be so treated to kill pathogens.

Robert Beck suggested using 4 Hz bi-phasic square wave voltage of +/- 27 Volts @ 3-7 mA alternating current through electrodes on the wrist, enabling current flow up the forearm's ulnar branch and radial artery branch from elbow to wrist starting initially for a duration of 10 minutes per day, then eventually for a duration of 2 hours per day.. The rate at which these weakened white blood cells are destroyed by the electric current is dependent on the amount of time the person performs blood electrification daily, could also lead to toxic side effects when care is not taken with timing of the taking medications, herbal remedies, and dietary intake hours prior to a treatment., so it is impossible to determine whether or not such an in-vitro machine is functioning without the use of specialized measuring equipment. However, the Dr. Bob Beck in-vivo machines use bi-phasic +/- 27 Volts at an adjustable few milliAmperes to drive current through the skin to form microcurrents in blood arteries. The contact electrode sites when operating such a Bob Beck device often causes a mild stinging sensation (due to the current's interaction with skin oils) from the pulses in synch with the approximately 4 Hz frequency of bi-phasic polarity oscillations. The solution to this common stinging sensation is to clean the contact electrode sites, and to use proper medical conductive gel or saline solution on the cotton wrappings of the stainless steel electrodes. When a Bob Beck blood cleaner is turned on and dialed to the minimum current setting, the electrodes can be briefly touched to the tongue to check for adequate tingling sensation to confirm that the device is operating--similar to the way in which the charge of a 9-volt transistor radio battery can be checked via contact with the tongue--although the sensation should be a bit stronger due to the three times voltage amount.
