About Pluggz
Pluggz reconnect you with the bounty of natural energy that lies right beneath your feet. This is called grounding, also known as earthing and being grounded is good for your body. Scienctific studies have shown that we have too many free radicals floating around our bodies which can cause discomfort, pain, inflammation, listlessness and all sorts of havoc, and being electron balanced – grounded -- helps to neutralize these harmful free radicals and helps return people to a more normalized healthy body state. And that’s what Pluggz do. The proprietary technology in every pair of Pluggz has a custom formulated conductive carbon and rubber plug which simply and naturally acts as a conduit, allowing free flow of electrons to flow into our bodies when we walk directly on the ground. This includes concrete sidewalks, grass, sand, soil, unsealed tile and stones. For more information, please visit http://www.Pluggz.com.
