There are some tantalizing experimental reports of resonance effects of ELF magnetic fields and it was suggested that these fields may influence physiologic processes in biological systems.
However, the available theoretical models developed to describe the interaction of electric and magnetic fields with biological systems failed to establish clear protocol for the mechanism of interaction and to resolve fundamental problems.
In this work, a new Metabolic Biomagnetic Resonance Model (MBMR) is introduced to describe the mutual interaction between adjacent cells during metabolic processes and the possible mode of resonance interaction of time varying external magnetic fields with the biomagnetism generated during physiologic processes. The basic principle of the new model depends on the fact that naturally occurring ionic current loops through metabolic processes produce biomagnetic fields. The amplitudes, wave forms and frequency of these fields will depend on the ionic current density involved in the physiologic process. Two cells of close proximity will purturb each others local field.
It is suggested that this mutual interactions between adjacent cells is one mode of cell to cell communication. An external magnetic field can resonate only with a biomagnetic field generated during a single physiologic process when the applied field is identical in frequency and pulse shape. Similar to the well known branches of spectroscopy fields (nuclear, atomic and molecular), a new Metabolic BIOMAGNETIC SPECTROSCOPY branch is suggested to study the mode of occurrence of physiologic processes.
