Have you ever been completely charged with static electricity and seen your hair float in the air for no reason, or received an electric shock when you want to kiss or shake hands to greet someone, or when closing your car door?
In fact, the human body is a large electric field that is constantly charged with electrons by contact or friction with other materials. An average organism can store up to about 30,000 volts. The greater the amount of electrons, the more significant the charge. Therefore, high voltages will also have a negative effect on your sleep, as this causes in you a feeling of nervousness and tension: hence stress or at least a more conducive environment for the expansion of this stress.

For this reason, it is important that the body can discharge quickly to keep the tension as low as possible. Generally, the discharge occurs when two elements separate: mostly through ground or ionization, called self-discharge in the air. For example, consider the phenomenon produced when removing a sweater in the dark, that is, crackling and sparks that may occur.

Nowadays this phenomenon has a solution when it comes to sleeping. With the research technologies of the manufacturers, techniques have been developed to help repair this natural defect. Whether it is the inclusion of carbon fiber in the fabrics of the mattresses or with the addition of mechanical complements that connect the mattress, or the body, through a copper wire mesh that discharges electrostatic energy via a ground connection.
