ABSTRACT:
A system for preventing and curing osteoporosis and obesity, which has a mat essentially consisting of a first sheet made from a semiconductive or insulating material and having a volume resistivity of less than 10.sup.4 .OMEGA..cm and a second sheet made from a semiconductive or insulating material, laminated on the first sheet and having a volume resistivity of 10.sup.4 .OMEGA..cm or more; an electric power source; an electrical circuit to apply DC voltage of 25-800 to the first sheet; and a control unit. A normal person or patient is made contact with the mat, so as to put his body in electrostatic field to be formed on the mat. In another embodiment, a third sheet of a material having a volume resistivity of more than 10.sup.12 .OMEGA..cm is used such that the first sheet is sandwiched between the third and second sheets.
