The effects of grounding (earthing) on inflammation, the immune response, wound healing, and prevention and treatment of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases
From the abstract:
Specifically, grounding an organism produces measurable differences in the concentrations of white blood cells, cytokines, and other molecules involved in the inflammatory response. We present several hypotheses to explain observed effects, based on current research results and our understanding of the electronic aspects of cell and tissue physiology, cell biology, biophysics, and biochemistry. An experimental injury to muscles, known as delayed onset muscle soreness, has been used to monitor the immune response under grounded versus ungrounded conditions. Grounding reduces pain and alters the numbers of circulating neutrophils and lymphocytes, and also affects various circulating chemical factors related to inflammation.

I had to check because it sounded like this was the kind of grounding the title and quote from the abstract meant, but its a surprising thing to hear about, so I was doubting my comprehension.
I was surprised to learn of this too. It seems relatively easy to try, so I'm going to give it a go.
A anti-static work mat used in electronics is the easiest thing to use, just use it as a deskpad for the computer.
