Specialized Anti-Parasitic Approaches
Biomagnetism (Biomagnetic Pair Therapy)
Biomagnetism is a therapeutic approach developed by Dr. Isaac
Goiz Durán involving the application of medium-intensity magnets
(1000-1500 gauss) to specific body points, proposed to affect
parasitic organisms through several mechanisms:
Proposed Mechanisms of Action for Parasitic Support:
1. pH Alteration:
○ Theory suggests that paired magnets can normalize pH
imbalances in tissues
○ Parasites generally prefer specific pH environments
○ By altering tissue pH, magnets may create an
environment inhospitable to parasites
○ The negative pole (south) is thought to alkalinize tissues,
while the positive pole (north) is believed to acidify
them
2. Circulatory Effects:
○ Magnets may increase local blood flow through effects
on paramagnetic hemoglobin
○ Enhanced circulation potentially improves immune cell
access to parasitic organisms
○ Better oxygenation of tissues may create less favorable
conditions for anaerobic parasites
3. Electromagnetic Field Effects:
○ Living organisms, including parasites, contain charged
particles sensitive to magnetic fields
