Naked Electron Therapy: The Science Behind Heliopatch
Introduction
Naked Electron Therapy: Heliopatch is based on patent pending Human Half-Cell Technology. Human Half-Cell Technology allows the human body to function as one-half of a battery - the cathode. Our patch technology provides the anode that completes the battery. Other electrical products that interact with the human body, such as TENS, tazers or iontophoresis, operate by different mechanism; these methods have always used the body as the resistor or wire.

Naked Electron Therapy
Image 1 displays a basic circuit with a battery powering a light bulb. For a battery to function, a molecule, like the black anode in this example, acts as an electron donor, shown as negative due to an abundance of electrons.
Electron flow requires the anode's connection to a cathode in two ways—electrically via a conductor for electron transfer and ionically through an electrolyte enabling ion movement. The cathode is orange, and the anode is black in the illustration. Ions move through the electrolyte to balance charge, while electrons travel down the conductor for redox reactions. Voltage difference drives electrons from the anode to the cathode, following the wire's path of least resistance.
Few electrons traverse the electrolyte, but ions move freely. As electrons flow through the wire, they generate heat in the light bulb, losing voltage until reaching the cathode. Adequate voltage must persist for the spontaneous reaction; if the load offers too much resistance, electrochemical reactions cannot occur.
The cathode acts as an oxidizing agent, allowing its outer shell to gain electrons, making its net charge more negative. To maintain balance, ions shuttle between the anode and cathode, facilitating electron flow. The cathode releases negative ions (anions) to the anode (red minus symbols), while the anode releases positive ions (cations) depicted by blue plus symbols. Anions and cations move between the cathode and anode through the electrolyte. The electrolyte, a fluid or solid, enables ion flow but limits electron movement. This exchange of electrons through the wire and ions through the electrolyte ensures a continuous electron flow, keeping charges balanced.
These principles are well-explored in electrochemistry but have seen limited application. The conceptual transfer of battery reactions to interactions between an organism and an anode, treating the organism as half of the battery, is a novel approach. In our system, the diagram's components mirror the earlier illustration, with the cathode (orange) replaced by a person. Unlike traditional batteries, there's no requirement for an electrically resistive electrolyte; we can choose to enable electrons and ions to transfer along the same path.
How Heliopatch Works

Naked Electron Therapy
The human body undergoes cellular oxidative stress due to normal, albeit imperfect, cellular function. Mitochondria, akin to power plants, generate energy and, simultaneously, produce free radicals—pollutants that disrupt normal cell function by stripping electrons from surrounding structures. These free radicals can be countered by antioxidants, reducing agents that donate electrons to neutralize their harmful effects. Ideally, the body can produce or absorb enough antioxidants from a nutritious diet to mitigate the threat of free radicals. However, in various circumstances, natural antioxidants can become depleted. Factors such as a poor diet, insufficient oxygen during high-intensity exercise, or immune system attacks can elevate oxidative stress.

The leakage of free radicals induces oxidative stress by initiating a chain reaction. Free radicals, having stolen an electron from a more reducing molecule, trigger a cascade effect as that molecule then takes an electron from another, creating a chain reaction. Strenuous exercise intensifies mitochondrial leakage as the body pushes its limits to generate more energy.
Antioxidants halt the chain reaction of free radicals by freely donating electrons, avoiding the need to steal from elsewhere. Human Half-Cell Technology, as in Heliopatch, achieves the same outcome by delivering pure, naked electrons directly to the body. This eliminates the molecular middleman of antioxidant molecules, surpassing their electron-delivering capacity. The naked electrons from Heliopatch are unique, leaving zero waste after neutralizing a free radical. The resulting molecule is chemically neutral, often transforming into hydroxide (OH-) or water (H2O).
These electrons become part of the new molecule, changing the molecular structure of a hydroxyl (OH) free radical to hydroxide (OH-). This transformation creates an alkaline environment in the target area, particularly beneficial during body stress and lactic acid production.
Other Sources of Free Radical Damage
Free radicals generated by the body's immune system serve as weapons against invaders like bacteria or viruses. Similar to disrupting cell function, free radicals impede malignant agents, causing invaders to break down. While the immune system usually functions correctly, autoimmunity can occur, leading it to attack its own cells, resulting in conditions like arthritis, psoriasis, and dermatitis.
It's crucial to use Heliopatch exclusively on healthy individuals without fever or signs of infection. Understanding the pain's cause is essential to ensure it's not related to an infection, where the immune system's response is productive. Conditions like sunburn stem from ionizing radiation from the sun, causing oxidation in skin cells. This explains why mountain climbers may get sunburned despite the cold—sunburn is a result of the sun's potent radiation, not heat. Environmental radiation damage can also arise from sources like radioactive elements, such as inhaled radon or ingested polonium.

Dietary Antioxidants
While our diets should provide sufficient antioxidants, food processing and storage have systematically depleted them for many people. Simultaneously, the increasing oxidative load from external sources, like pollution, has heightened our oxidative burden. Antioxidants from external sources contribute to the production of internally usable cofactor antioxidants, such as glutathione. However, dietary antioxidants from foods like blueberries are largely depleted in the gastrointestinal tract. The majority is absorbed by the liver, with the remainder diluted throughout the body. Since dietary antioxidants must pass through the digestive tract, they have limited impact on inflammation in specific body parts—no matter how many blueberries you consume, it may have little effect on conditions like tendinitis in your elbow.
Dietary antioxidants come with drawbacks - obtaining them requires either expensive supplements or consuming large quantities of often unfamiliar and unpalatable foods. High antioxidant superfoods can be costly and contribute to increased caloric intake. Burning these calories by mitochondria results in more free radicals, complicating the delicate balance of oxidative stress, dietary antioxidant intake, and caloric intake. Managing free radicals through diet is challenging, especially during sports or fitness events, as consuming enough antioxidants may lead to stomach issues, potentially offsetting supplementation benefits. Another issue with molecular antioxidants is that, after donating their electron, they become essentially waste products that the body needs to eliminate. Human Half-Cell Technology excels here, as its naked electrons are wholly consumed by oxidizing molecules, leaving zero waste.

Inflammation
Inflammation results from the body's response to unwelcome stimuli, like pathogens or damaged cells, where the immune system attacks the affected area. This immune response can be either appropriate or misguided. Inflammation, often accompanied by pain, is a familiar experience; if an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol alleviates the pain, it was likely caused by inflammation. If a steroid resolves the pain, the inflammation was likely triggered by an immune response.
Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own cells. Examples include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, Crohn's disease, lupus, Hashimoto's, and more. Current treatments for autoimmune disorders often involve suppressing the overall immune function, rendering sufferers more susceptible to infections and pathogens. For individuals with suppressed immunity, even a simple cut or exposure to a sick child can pose risks.
Human Half-Cell Technology's area of effect is most potent in the immediate application area and is easily reversible by removing it from the skin. This is in contrast to cortisone injections, which have a longer-lasting effect with no chance for reversal if an infection occurs. The same principle applies to pain relief and management—why administer large quantities of a drug affecting the entire body and mind if the pain is localized to one specific area?
Certain situations, like head trauma (concussions), can trigger a cascade effect of inflammation and oxidative stress events. Studies have shown that the antioxidant glutathione can significantly reduce brain damage in concussed mice. When applied three hours after injury, glutathione reduced cell death by 51%. Glutathione works by decreasing levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) molecules that damage cells. In this study, high ROS levels were observed at the trauma site right after the brain injury, setting off a sequence of events leading to cell death. Glutathione proved effective in preventing many of these detrimental effects. However, administering glutathione to humans poses challenges.
Human Half-Cell Technology addresses this challenge by using much smaller electrons. Unlike injections, electrons can easily penetrate the human skull and blood-brain barrier, offering a potential solution for effective administration.

Versatile Pain Relief
In addition to significantly and quickly reducing general pain, Human Half- Cell technology has also helped speed healing from a variety of ill effects. The effects range from immediately stopping itchy hives, to relieving pain and cramps associated with PMS. Further, we have witnessed support of natural wound healing process, similar to how low intensity direct current has been shown to accelerate wound healing.
Now for the How
We know the body responds to naked electrons, reducing cells. Now, how can we effortlessly donate these electrons to create a voltaic cell in the body?
Reactive Elements
Certain elements, like those in the left columns of the periodic table (alkali and alkali earth metals), act as electron donors—examples include sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Alkali metals donate one electron, while alkali earth metals donate two. Overcoming challenges involves efficiently extracting these electrons and selecting a safe and effective donor element. Group 1 elements (e.g., sodium, potassium) are too reactive, posing safety risks. Group 2 elements like calcium and magnesium are more suitable, being less reactive due to a protective coating. However, continuous extraction is hindered by passivation, solvable through abrasion or adding acidity. Choosing an element safe, nutritious, and high in standard reducing potentials ensures optimal electron penetration into the body.
Standard Reducing Potentials
This table shows the voltage an element or compound is capable of providing when it gives up electrons to a cathode. You can see magnesium is one of the most charged elements; right above it is lithium which is used in high performance batteries for phones and vehicles.

The Benefits of Magnesium
Elemental magnesium meets all our criteria—stable, energy-dense, and nutritious. Often obtained from leafy greens, magnesium deficiency is common. Heliopatch's transdermal magnesium administration addresses this deficiency. Magnesium correlates positively with muscle power and aids in alleviating PMS and menstrual cramps. Unlike dietary magnesium (Mg2+), elemental magnesium retains its electrons, acting as an electron donor before becoming the ion Mg2+ upon donation.
https://www.coinandbullionpages.com/critical-metals/magnesium.html
Magnesium forms an oxide coating when exposed to air, removable by abrasion or a soluble acid. However, exposing the fresh surface leads to immediate oxygen attack, causing reoxidation. Our trade secret compound on raw magnesium enables continuous electron flow, unlike pure unoxidized magnesium, which, when touched with bare skin, swiftly impairs electron flow, causing a rapid voltage decrease.
Choosing the Electrolyte
Now that we have an electron donor (Mg) and a path out for the electrons, we need a good way for the ions to transfer - we need an electrolyte. To quickly review, here are the three things we need to form a Human Half-Cell.
Anode = Magnesium
Cathode = Reactive oxygen species (free radicals) in the body.
Electrolyte = Salty solution to allow flow of ions between the anode and cathode, and keep their charges neutral to each other.
The flow of the ions is the second major hurdle to creating a functioning half-cell out of a human. An electrolyte is required as the positive ions flowing from it will enter the body to counteract the negative charge of the electron and keep the person s charge neutral - allowing more and more electrons to enter.
Our Electrolyte Blend and the Potential of Electrolytes
The electrolyte formulation provides us with another opportunity to provide our choice of ions to the user. Our standard electrolyte solution is an isotonic solution of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, water and glycerin. The sodium chloride and potassium chloride are the electrolytes with the water, while the glycerin keeps the skin hydrated and lubricated.
We have also been experimenting with a magnesium, calcium, strontium and glucosamine/chondroitin blend for providing nutrients to bones and ligaments. By experimenting with different blends of positively charged molecules we can provide different nutritional benefits to users. This system allows ions to be delivered directly to the site where the nutrient activity is desired as opposed to diluting them through your whole system. This can also avoid sending nutrients to parts of the body where they have undesired effects, such as the laxative effects of magnesium when consumed orally.
It is important to note that this method and tech works differently from iontophoresis. First, we are using the person as one half the electrochemical cell instead of just the conduit for ions and electrons like iontophoresis. Secondly by using a reducing environment with an abundance of free electrons to prevent oxidation we can deliver oxidatively delicate positively charged molecules and ions. This means we are able to keep them intact and consistent, as opposed to the oxidative effects under the positive electrode that iontophoresis elicits.
Heliopatch
With all elements of the voltaic cell accounted for, we need a way to easily and inexpensively apply Human Half-Cell Technology to the human body. After a few years of research and development, we developed Heliopatch. Heliopatch is a transdermal, water-resistant patch that contains the magnesium anode and electrolyte solution. Heliopatch can be directly applied to areas of discomfort to deliver naked electron therapy.
Improving Ion Flow
The outermost layer of skin is dead and nonconductive, which impedes ion transfer from the Heliopatch. We have tried using an abrasive alcohol pad but this had little impact on its own. However when we apply a saline/glycerin solution to the skin it hydrates and after several minutes allows a much greater rate of ion transfer to happen. This lets even more electrons enter the user. The combination of Heliopatch and the Activator solution as a mixed conductor leads to hours of relief.
Human Half-Cell in the Future
Oxidation of cells is both good and bad. It can be beneficial, as it can eliminate malfunctioning cells before they cause problems. Uncontrolled oxidation is bad because it is a major factor in aging. We believe with our controlled delivery of pure antioxidants we can benefit cell growth and health - particularly as we develop other technologies and therapies to form an overall method of treatment. We believe that our approach can be a cornerstone in future life extension therapies to help people live well beyond the current expectancy. Our goal is to have a fully functioning life extension pod for use by the year 2020, using our technologies with others, to form a full, comprehensive treatment.
