It could all be a scam to sell a few related products, but it doesn't strike me as such. It's hardly "big bike" is it? The author appears to be a legit cardiologist (possibly an outlier?) and there are plenty of other physicians who agree with his findings. As I say I haven't really looked deep into this, but I wouldn't rule it out as pure fantasy. Are there any sources debunking the theory that blood viscosity and other effects may be effected by grounding? Of course there are:-

What is fairly clear is that mainstream medicine doesn't really research any of this. But then that's all about peddling drugs anyway isn't it? So who knows?

So if there are some effects, why would we assume they were good? Well maybe because we evolved in that specific environment before partially isolating ourselves from it? Much of our modern life tends to be pretty negative to our health as we gradually detach ourselves from the natural world we evolved in.
Now I don't go out of my way to ground myself every day and I'm certainly not buying any grounding products, but I still think there could be something in it and wouldn't automatically dismiss it out of hand. I certainly wouldn't put it in the same category as ghosts and other supernatural bs.
