What's at Stake

The rise in chronic illnesses, sleep disorders, stress, and cardiovascular diseases in the Western world is largely due to modern lifestyle factors such as sedentary behavior, poor diet, and constant technology use. Prolonged sitting, processed foods, and electronic device overuse contribute to obesity, disrupted sleep, and increased stress levels. Chronic stress from work and personal life further exacerbates these issues, impacting mental and physical health. Improving overall health requires lifestyle changes like increased physical activity, a balanced diet, stress management, and reducing technology exposure. Additionally, incorporating grounding into your daily routine can help mitigate these symptoms by promoting relaxation, reducing inflammation, and improving sleep quality (CDC) (Mayo Clinic) (www.heart.org).

Continuous Improvement

Groundcover has been dedicated to improving its products based on the latest scientific research and customer feedback, ensuring we offer the most effective grounding solutions available.

Grounding, or earthing, is the practice of connecting directly with the Earth’s natural energy by walking barefoot outside or using grounding products indoors.
The Earth’s surface has an abundance of negatively charged electrons. When you come into contact with the ground, these electrons flow into your body, neutralizing free radicals and stabilizing your body’s electrical environment.
This process helps reduce inflammation, improve sleep, and enhance overall well-being (CDC) (American Psychological Association).
Numerous studies have explored the benefits of grounding. These include randomized controlled trials, pilot studies, and reviews published in peer-reviewed journals.
The research highlights grounding's effects on reducing inflammation, improving sleep quality, alleviating chronic pain, and enhancing immune function.
For example, studies published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine and the Journal of Environmental and Public Health have shown significant health benefits (Grounded.com) (Better Earthing) (DigitalCommons PCOM)
Grounding helps to neutralize free radicals, which are highly reactive molecules that can damage cells and contribute to inflammation.
By absorbing electrons from the Earth, the body can stabilize free radicals, thereby reducing oxidative stress and inflammation.
Research has shown that participants using grounding mats or grounding products experienced a decrease in inflammatory markers and improved health outcomes (CDC).
Yes, grounding has been shown to improve sleep quality. Studies have demonstrated that grounding can help normalize cortisol levels, which regulate the sleep-wake cycle.
Participants using grounded sleeping setups reported better sleep efficiency, feeling more refreshed upon waking, and deeper, more restorative sleep cycles (Better Earthing).
Scientific studies have shown that grounding can significantly reduce chronic pain. By decreasing inflammation and interrupting pain signaling pathways, grounding provides a natural method to alleviate pain. Participants in studies using grounding mats reported an 80% reduction in pain levels compared to placebo groups (DigitalCommons).

Grounding can improve cardiovascular health by enhancing blood flow and reducing blood viscosity.
Studies have shown that grounding can lead to better circulation, which helps in the efficient delivery of oxygen and nutrients to tissues, thereby supporting overall cardiovascular health.
This effect is particularly beneficial in reducing the risk of heart disease and other cardiovascular issues (www.heart.org).
Grounding has been found to reduce stress and anxiety by stabilizing the body’s electrical environment and promoting a calming effect.
Studies have indicated that grounding can lower cortisol levels, which are often elevated in stressful situations, and help individuals feel more relaxed and centered (CDC) (American Psychological Association).
While grounding offers numerous health benefits, it is not intended to diagnose, treat, or replace medical treatments for any diagnosed illnesses.
Grounding should be viewed as a complementary practice to support overall well-being, alongside other prescribed therapies and treatments from healthcare professionals (CDC) (American Psychological Association) (www.heart.org).
Grounding has been shown to support and enhance the immune system by increasing the activity of white blood cells, which are crucial for fighting infections and diseases.
One pilot study demonstrated that regular grounding practices led to a 20% increase in white blood cell activity. This suggests that grounding can help the body more effectively respond to infections and recover from illnesses.
By reducing inflammation and oxidative stress, grounding also creates a more favourable environment for immune function (MDPI) (CDC) (www.heart.org).
