Western ideas in relation to the advantages of the use of micro- currents (μa) developed through the scientific study of the conduction of biological current in cells. Mitchell even won a Nobel Prize for his work in the area in 1978. In 1982, Cheng showed that, with a stimulation of less than 500 micro amps, ATP increased by 500-800%, protein biosynthesis increased by 70% and the membrane transport was improved by 40%. In 1991, Nobel Prize winners, Neher and Sackman explained how this micro-current effected the behaviour of the cell membrane. Boyer and Walker then explained in 1997 the mechanism of the ATP production.
