A study last year from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) found that plants generate a voltage of up to 200 millivolts when one electrode is placed in a plant and the other in the surrounding soil.
In some men, this tiny charge weakens to around 50 millivolts and cells become traumatised.
Moreover, that electrical potential, which ranges up to 10 millivolts (mV), increases with flow speed.
