The Shocking Science of Grounding

https://drhughwegwerth.com/

In this episode, I break down the simple but powerful science of grounding and why it could change your health.

What You’ll Learn:

  • What grounding is: The Earth works like a giant battery full of electrons.
  • How grounding helps: When you touch a grounding mat or sheet, those electrons move into your body and bring balance.
  • Why it matters: If you struggle with chronic illness, fatigue, brain fog, or inflammation, you may be low on electrons. Grounding restores them.
  • The role of silver: A good grounding sheet has silver woven into it. More silver means more conduction, which means more healing power for your body.
  • Free radicals explained: These are unstable molecules that damage your cells. Grounding, like antioxidants, helps “quench” free radicals before they cause harm.
  • Diseases linked to oxidative stress: Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, arthritis, IBS, kidney disease, and more all thrive in a body with too much oxidative damage.
  • Real-life demo: I show how using a simple $30 meter proves that grounding drops harmful body voltage almost instantly.

Why Listen?

  • You’ll understand why every disease grows in a body that is inflamed.
  • You’ll see how something as simple as connecting with the Earth—or using a grounding mat—can lower inflammation, improve energy, and protect your cells.
  • You’ll get practical tips and see the exact tools I use at home.

Tune in and discover how grounding can give your body what it’s missing—free healing energy from the Earth.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
