Question of the Week / Re: QotW - 10.12.12 - Is blood magnetic? And do magnetic bracelets actually work?

I have several. If interested I can forward these to your e-mail address. Look forward to hearing from you. Before we go any further however, I wish to point out that I am NOT scientifically qualified but am extremely interested to discover more in relation to this and other related phenomena.

Thank you to the authors of replies 10 11 12. The explanation I have for the magnetic bracelet helping with pain relief etc. is that the strong magnetic field applied to the (diamagnetic) blood causes the blood cells which naturally tend to bond together in a coin roll formation, to separate from one another whereby they are able to absorb more oxygen which is then circulated throughout the body - in a similar way to persons suffering severe pain are immersed in an oxygen rich environment inside a hyperbaric chamber (HBO therapy) The enhanced oxygen also enhances the healing of injuries and I can personally attest to this enhanced healing with my own magnetic bracelet. From my years of research there does not seem to be an authoritative answer to this question by the experts-some say yes others no, despite masses of anecdotal evidence that it does work in many many instances. Further to this, by exposing their (diamagnetic) drinking water to a strong magnetic field it has been found that cows produce more milk, cell count is reduced and their general health is improved. On one farm, it was found that foot rot had become a thing of the past and where it had been normal practice to give anti-biotics to all new born calves to prevent pneumonia as a matter of course. In year one after fitting magnets only 2 calves had been so prescribed and this as a precautionary measure. No manner of placebo effect I suggest, can be responsible for these and many other results I have had in agriculture, horticulture and even with heating appliances. As one scientist I came across in my research pointed out "Magnetism is Natures most Mysterious Force." Again if anyone can help me further I would be most grateful of their help. Thank you.

I have placed such magnets on animals in the past. Dogs, cats, cows, calves and horses ALL with a positive result. I have also supplied many hundreds to humans with good but admittedly less than a 100% success rate.Some of the results achieved were quite surprising. In the case of one of our dogs, a Pug, a magnet was placed around her neck following a spinal injury which left her unable to use her back legs. Our Vet offered to put her down as there was no way that she was going to walk again. After a couple of months she was back on her feet walking and a few weeks after that her tail resumed its curl. The Vet found it hard to believe and unable to be explained. A dressage pony also had its navicular arrested. And there are many more results we have seen and heard of with animals. It seems unlikely in the extreme, that these results were due to a placebo effect.I am unable therefore to agree with the scientific explanation offered here. I am however searching for answers as to the effects of magnetic fields upon this and many other functions. If there is anyone who is able to assist me in my search I would appreciate any assistance you feel able to give me. Thank you.
