MAGNETS AND THE BODY

Magnets and the BodyThe two constituent parts of electromagnetism— electrical energy and a magnetic field — are naturally present in living things.

Electrical energy controls many functions in the human body. Electrical impulses keep the heart beating. They are the basis of cerebral (brain) activity. The sensation of touch is conducted by electrical nerve signals.

However, applying an external electrical current to a living organism can be extremely harmful, even fatal.

In contrast, magnetism — the force that is allied to electricity — has no known ill effects when applied to a healthy body.*

This is one reason why magnets are ideal for practically any application. Even the most sceptical person regarding the positive effects of magnets, will nevertheless have to concede that there is no downside in trying them out.

In other words, magnets present no significant risk. Compare that with any product or procedure that involves potential side effects or pain.

* Do not use a magnetic product if you have a pacemaker or other sensitive implanted device. Women in the first trimester of pregnancy should consult a physician before using any magnetic device.
