Diet Can Cut the Shocks

Some folks simply are more electric than others, not necessarily in personality but in generating static electricity. For people who constantly get shocked from touching metal objects such as supermarket shopping trolleys and cars, hypnotherapist/author Betty Shine says watching the diet could help.

“For anyone who suffers in this way,” she says, “I would recommend a diet rich in meats, seeds and green vegetables.” These, she explains, are rich in magnesium, “an effective conductor of the electro-magnetic energy surrounding our bodies” and more likely to reduce shocks from touching metallic objects.

Some people, she says, “are very powerfully electric,” and around them light bulbs can blow out, machinery will break down and even the electrical system in their car may play up. For those especially afflicted, “I would recommend using thin gloves while you are out doing your shopping.”

If it happens when you are at home, “and you are feeling electrified, try putting your hands under cold, running water for a while.” And if that doesn’t do the job, step into the shower for a long, soothing soak.
