Your Body NeedsMagnetic Energy!
�Each cell has a
positive & a negative
field in the DNA.
�Cell division is a
process responsible
�The proper functionand interaction of all
organs and systems in
the body depend on the
constant presence of
adequate magnetic process responsible
for keeping the body
healthy &
rejuvenated.
�The force which
activates the
formation and division
of cells is magnetic
energy.
constant presence of
adequate magnetic
energy.
�Magnetism is
essential for the
body’s electromagnetic
activity and plays a
major role in health
and disease.Your Body Is An
Electro-Magnetic System
