In this segment of the "Grounding: The Secret to Healthier Blood Cells?" video, Clint Ober and Dave Asprey discuss a series of experiments and studies that examine how grounding (earthing) affects blood properties. They recount a protocol where doctors' blood samples were drawn, examined with dark field microscopy, and then the subjects were grounded for 30‑60 minutes. The key finding reported is a rapid increase—about 270%—in the negative surface charge (electron count) on red blood cells after grounding, which corresponded to immediate disaggregation of red cells and a return to normal blood viscosity. The conversation highlights dark field microscopy as a long‑used European technique for visualizing live blood, noting that in the U.S. pharmaceutical interests have dismissed its validity. They also mention that other interventions such as Coenzyme Q10, sunlight, and quantum‑based technologies can similarly alter blood coagulation as seen under dark field microscopy. The speakers emphasize the potential clinical relevance, suggesting that reduced red cell aggregation lowers the risk of stroke, heart attack, and clotting, and they urge listeners to review the published study (referred to as Stephen’s blood‑viscosity study). The tone is conversational and enthusiastic, with a supportive stance toward grounding and a critical view of mainstream skepticism.

Stephen called me up one day and had me fly back to Connecticut. And he said, I got a dozen docs here, and he says, we're going to draw blood on every one of them and we're going to put a dark wheel, the white field, and so we can look at the blood. And then we're going to ground them for 30 minutes or an hour. And they would go back and look at it. The first thing we learned was that all the blood separated instantly. So the question became. And all these docs said, well, this is all great, but why? How does grounding do that? How does grounding make the blood separate? How does it return it to normal viscosity? Nobody knew. And so then Gaetan Chevalier down in San Diego and Stephen and a couple of us, we got together and we created a way that we could measure electrons on red blood cells.
Oh, cool.
So we knew that if your blood is thick and sticky and you're on blitheners and all that kind of stuff, it's because your, your blood doesn't have enough electrons. I mean, they're sharing electrons and sticking together and creating a rule of formations and so on. But as soon as you ground the body to the earth, the blood travels once a minute throughout the system. And what we found was, is after 30 minutes, we increase the negative surface charge, the number of electrons on red blood cells, by 270%. That there's a, that's a published study. That's Access to the World.
And everybody has, wow, that's actually news. I have not come across that study.
Okay, that's Stephen's blood viscosity. Study it.
And for, for listeners, there's a whole field of research called dark field microscopy where you look at living blood. It's very common in Europe. We've been able to do it for a very long time. And in the US there's been concerted efforts by big pharma companies to say that there's no validity to it, which is frankly, nonsense. You can see, and I've been doing this for 30 years, go to someone who does it and you can see are your red blood cells stacked together, which means that you're at a higher risk of stroke and heart attack and clots, or are they floating freely and anything you do that changes it, whether it's coenzyme Q10 or sunlight or earthing, you can measure a difference. In fact, some of the tech that I have here in, in something like 20 studies using dark field microscopy can affect blood coagulation. This isn't even earthing. This is a quantum thing, but it's a way of knowing whether it works.
This is what happens to. It won't be able to show this on the screen, but this is what happens to a cardiologist's blood. This is before.
Oh, this is cool. I'll hold that up. We can probably get on the camera if not. If you send us this.
Yeah, you can have that, or I can send you the slides and I don't know if the came.
I can zoom in on that. That's first one, Fluffy stuck together, and then the second one.
That's just by grounding the body to earth. That's just by putting your bare feet on the earth.
And even better, this is a cardiologist blood, which is funny.
These are all cardiologist blood. There was a dozen of them in the study.
