    Default Re: Copper bracelets, magnets etc

    i believe they can have an effect on people. my dad, before dying of the big c of the brain, received alot of healing treatment using magnets. to say the least, the 4 years he lived on after being give 4 months was maybe a fighting coincidence or the magnet therapy which he said relieved so much pain worked is hard to say.

    i have a bracelet made of what looks/feels like a ball bearing chain made of a certain ferite (check spelling) similar to magnets and personally gives me a banging headache when worn for a few mins, and dissapears when i remove it

    so i guess its down to each individual

Nature perfectly balanced? Never such a thing... we have fish that can fly and penguins that can't.
    Lmao... Neanderthal man died out because their brains were not as developed as ours according to latest research. Basically the bigger the eye socket, the more of the brain is dedicated to visual processing. They may have had larger skulls, but the size of their eyes means that they actually have less of their brain dedicated to other tasks. They think that because of this they had smaller social groups and couldn't deal with climate changes etc as a group. So yeah, our brains are prob exactly the same as they were then.

    Penguins are a perfect example of nature and evolution at their finest. A bird that can 'fly' underwater to catch fish... That's a bird that's been able to evolve into a better swimmer than a fucking fish! Lol They've also evolved to be able to survive the coldest weather on the planet... -89c has been recorded at the south pole where they live. Nature evolves gradually over time, usually to fulfil a very specific goal, it is not going to effectively massively over engineer the brain, and then not let us use it.

    As for copper/magnetic bracelets, load of bollocks.

    Take a look at: http://www.wikipedia-is-wrong.com/

    Even the citations mean nothing if they too are inaccurate !!!

    Not for one minute saying copper bracelets work or don't....

    Very contradictory when you read what the NHS say at the bottom.
    There are 3 types of people in the world - those who make things happen, those who watch things happen; and those who wondered what happened.
