THE ELECTRIC HUMAN - Part I Understanding Human Electricity.

A Complete Exploration of Cellular Voltage, Heart Energy, Brain Waves, Healing, and Consciousness

INTRODUCTION

The human body is far more than flesh, bones, and chemistry. Beneath every breath, emotion, memory, and moment of awareness lives a silent system of electricity that powers all of life. From the tiny voltage inside your cells to the magnetic field of your heart and the waves produced by your brain, the human organism is an extraordinary blend of biology and energy. Scientists now understand that human electricity is not mystical or symbolic — it is a measurable biological force produced by your cells every second.

This master guide brings together science, human experience, and ancient spiritual insight to explore the deeper truth:

You are an electrical being.

Alive because trillions of tiny impulses fire every second. Healed by coherence. Shaped by emotion. Connected through energy. And sustained by an awareness that might extend beyond the body.

Let’s explore one layer at a time.

How Your Trillions of Cells Create Life, Power, and Energy

Scientists today recognize that human electricity is a measurable, biological force created by your cells every second.

The Surprising Truth: You Are an Electrical Being

Scientists estimate that the human body contains around 37 trillion cells, and each carries a tiny electrical charge known as the resting membrane potential, roughly –70 millivolts.

This microscopic voltage is responsible for:

• your heartbeat

• nerve communication

• muscle movement

• healing and repair

• immune activation

• sensory perception

Life depends on this electricity — without it, everything stops instantly.

But where does this electricity come from?

The Real Source of Human Electricity

Your body produces electricity through a beautifully orchestrated energy-making system that begins with fuel and ends with voltage.

1. Carbohydrates become glucose

Glucose is the body’s primary and most efficient fuel source.(Proteins and fats also provide energy when needed — especially during fasting or low-carb states — but glucose remains the main driver of cellular power.)

2. Glucose enters the mitochondria

These are your cells’ internal power plants, where fuel is transformed into usable energy.

A Closer Look at Mitochondria

Inside each cell are tiny structures called mitochondria — often described as the “powerhouses” of the body. Their job is to convert the food you eat and the oxygen you breathe into usable energy. They take in:

• glucose from carbohydrates

• fatty acids from fats

• amino acids from proteins (when needed)

  
  

Then, using oxygen, they convert these nutrients into ATP.

Mitochondria are more than power plants — they help maintain your cell’s electrical charge, regulate healing, and manage oxidative balance. Cells that need more energy, like brain and heart cells, contain the highest number of mitochondria.

Where energy is needed most, mitochondria are most abundant.

3. Inside the mitochondria, glucose and oxygen become ATP

What Is ATP?

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the energy currency of life — tiny battery packs that power all cellular processes.

ATP fuels everything:

• heartbeat

• brain activity

• muscle movement

• immune response

• tissue repair

• the electrical charge of every cell

Without ATP, no cell can function. ATP is the foundation of your electrical system.

4. ATP powers ion pumps in the cell membrane

These pumps move charged ions in and out of the cell.

5. Ion movement creates voltage

This voltage becomes the electrical signals that run through your nerves, tissues, and organs.

Your body’s electricity ultimately comes from the transformation of:

• glucose

• oxygen

• water

into ATP — which then creates voltage, which then becomes life.

Why Cell Voltage Matters

Healthy cells maintain a voltage around –70 millivolts. When this voltage is strong:

• Healing accelerates

• Immunity strengthens

• Inflammation decreases

• Energy rises

• Thinking becomes clearer

• Overall vitality increases

When voltage drops due to stress, poor sleep, inflammation, or aging:

• Healing slows Fatigue increases

• Immunity weakens

• Chronic conditions appear

• Brain fog becomes common

Bioelectric medicine — including studies by Dr. Robert O. Becker — shows that restoring cellular voltage is one of the most powerful ways to support healing.

Electrical health is biological health.

The Brain’s Electrical Symphony

Even at rest, the brain generates 10–20 watts of electrical power — enough to light a small bulb. Billions of neurons fire in complex waves, creating:

• thought

• emotion

• memory

• dreaming

• perception

• consciousness

Electricity doesn’t just support awareness —it creates the very experience of being alive.

HUMAN EXPERIENCE: Everyday Sparks

Have you ever touched a metal surface and felt a tiny shock? Or bumped into someone and felt a quick “snap”? That’s static electricity — a moment when built-up charge jumps between surfaces.

A small human moment… but a perfect reminder:

Your body is constantly generating, carrying, and exchanging electrical charge.

You are an electrical being, even in the most ordinary moments.

Every heartbeat, every thought, every breath depends on the electricity maintained by ATP-driven ion pumps inside your cells. This tiny voltage, multiplied trillions of times, forms the foundation of your life.

This is where our journey begins. In Part II, we move beyond the cell — exploring the electrical fields of the heart, the waves of the brain, and the energy that surrounds and connects the human body.
