Robert O. Becker Quote

My only contribution was to point out that the enclosure had been built before anyone knew about the earth field's low-frequency components, micro pulsations ranging from less than 1 to about 25 cycles per second, that were far weaker than the planet's electromagnetic field as a whole. Consequently Beischer's subjects were still exposed to a very weak magnetic field pulsing at these frequencies, and I suspected that that component might be one of the most important for life, because all brain waves were in exactly the same range. Perhaps as a result of this factor, the null-field experiment was turning out to be in-conclusive, but I asked Beischer to attend the MIT meeting and present some previous data suggesting that electromagnetic fields could affect embryonic development.
