Nerves Transmit Sound, Not Electricity?
A new theory created by Thomas Heimburg of Copenhagen University states that nerves transmit signals through sound rather than electrical impulses. He bases his theory off of the inconsistencies in electrical impulse-nerve theory. Laws dealing with thermodynamics and how electrical impulses should produce heat while traveling through the nerve, but they don’t.
I know there are flaws in the electrical impulse-nerve theory, but have you ever heard of brain waves? We can measure electrical activity in the brain.
