IntroductionIntroduction Bio-magnetism is a new field of research Bio-magnetism is a new field of research
dealing with the measurement and dealing with the measurement and interpretation of magnetic fields produced interpretation of magnetic fields produced by organs or by magnetic contaminants of by organs or by magnetic contaminants of the body the body
Some examples are:Some examples are:

TThe nervous relay system immediately transmits the he nervous relay system immediately transmits the relay to the brain, which floods the problem area with relay to the brain, which floods the problem area with healing negative charges to correct the chaotically healing negative charges to correct the chaotically charged areacharged area
The metabolism process in each cell is dependent on The metabolism process in each cell is dependent on biopotential in this cell biopotential in this cell
The negative field of a magnet is used to correctly The negative field of a magnet is used to correctly stimulate & create the healthy cellular charge state stimulate & create the healthy cellular charge state of a strong negative potential. Henceof a strong negative potential. Hence the need for the need for properly designed biomagnetic field.properly designed biomagnetic field.
