Abstract
Purpose:
It has been postulated that electromagnetic fiels play a role in transferring biological information during the Bi-Digital O-Ring Test (BDORT). Omura also reported that strong electromagnetic fields or magnetic fields modify the drug effect and sometimes make the drug ineffective. It is well know that a strong magnetic filed disturbs the BDORT 1 ), but the influence of the hypomagnetic field below the geo-magnetic field has not been the subject of controversy. Smith described that the hypomagnetic environment could "erase" the frequency information imprinted into water 2 ). In this study we carried out some experiments to clarify the effect of hypomagnetic fields on the BDORT.
Methods and Results:
(1) When a drug was exposed to an electromagnetic wave fed by an oscillator through a solenoid or toroidal coil, the positive resonant reaction to the original drug disappeared. The drug compatibility to the patient also changed. Then when the drug was put into a hypomagnetic container made of permalloy, in which the magnetic flux density was below 400nT, the original response was recovered. (2) When a wire connected to the patient's pathological foci was passed through a hypomagnetic environment, the original abnormal response and drug compatibility could not be obtained. This perturbation occurred below about 20μT in this preliminary study.
Discussion:
There is a possibility that the samples used in BDORT receive “electromagnetic contamination.” It may occur not only by environmental electromagnetic radiation such as from electromagnetic equipment, but also by contact with other samples, drugs, or the examiner's oscillations. Based on this study it is possible to erase the contamination using the hypomagnetic container, and this method might be useful to perform accurate BDORT, which would lead to good clinical results.
In this study we found that the BDORT was influenced and perturbed not only by strong electromagnetic fields, but also by a hypomagnetic environment below the geo-magnetic field. It suggest that the geo-magnetic field might be involved in the transferring of biological information, as well as the mechanism of BDORT.
