Qi which is supposed to be the life energy that powers living organisms is actually electrical energy generated by ionizing sodium and potassium through chemical reactions in the cells using oxygen and macronutrients such as fat, carbohydrates, and proteins, to generate electrolytes which are stored directly in the cells, and also in neurons in the case of animals, and then released to generate the electric power that allows living organisms to perform bodily functions and movements.

Bioelectricity was discovered by Luigi Galvani in the late 1700s which proved that life forms are essentially just machines driven by a power source and using nutrients as fuel for power generation which he demonstrated in a disturbing experiment where he reanimated dead animals using electricity coming from leyden jars, which he also invented, and is the precursor to the electric battery, and is charged using lightning rods, which were invented by Benjamin Franklin.
