Hypothesis: Bacteria benefiting from electromagnetic field in peripheral neuropathy.

ABSTRACT

Recent research has already been shown widespread locations of bacteria in various tissues and organs of a healthy host organism. These bacteria (hereinafter referred to as persistent microbiota, PM) cause neither noticeable destruction nor toxins production - no immune response can be noticed either. The role of the PM is unknown. The host nervous system is not an exception and can also be inhabited by the PM. We found that various bacteria were capable of benefiting from the electromagnetic field (EMF). The main advantage of these bacteria, apparently, lies in the increasing supply of ionic forms of compounds into the cells. Since microorganisms use the energy of electrical impulses, their possible colonization of the host's nerve circuit will weaken the nerve signals. The presented hypothesis aims to draw attention to the following points i) microbial colonization of the host nervous system will lead to the weakening of nerve signals, ii) the sensitivity of bacteria to EMF permits to affect on their activity with electromagnetic treatment.
