Magnetic copper bracelets - I'm a sceptic

[Yellow Saddle]

I have no idea, as far as I know she never took a placebo' is that any different to a normal placebo or some Spanish or German version?

I don't know about the German ones, but in Spain, even Placebo Domingo won't sing their praises.

How does one magnetise copper?

How does one magnetise copper?

I wondered about that too.

Presumably coppers are made of pig iron?

I'll get my coat.

How does one magnetise copper?

I wondered about that, but discovered just 3 minutes ago, thanks to the wonders of the internet, the magnetism comes from small magnets inlaid into the inner surface of the wristband.

That makes them "copper bracelets with magnets", not "magnetic copper bracelets", doesn't it?

I expect that a more efficient use of them would be to stick them in a furnace and then forge them into a more useful shape.
Like a fork to jab quacks in the eye with.

Also isn't it odd how EM hypersensitivity syndrome vanished as soon as mobile phones stopped using the 2G frequencies that audibly interfere with audio equipment? Magic, innit?

I'll settle for "copper magnetic bracelet".

I remember my significant other coming back from town with one... she explained about the body's natural magnetic field and how the technology we're surrounded by in the modern world interferes with said magnetic field and the magnetic bracelet puts everything back in balance. I feigned interest but inside i was thinking codswallop!

The technology around us interferes with the body's natural magnetic field? What about the much much larger much much more powerful magnet we're sitting on top of?

I've been given one of these for Christmas.

Now I'm a sceptic with this type of thing. Scientific studies state they don't work, yet many people say they do.

Are the scientific bods just protecting their own interests and those who use them are they experiencing the placebo effect.

u know what a placebo is, right?

I know perfectly well however the more I read the less I'm certain you do?

 

[Stompier]

Copper scrap metal prices are about £3.50 per kg at the moment. See if you can find a few more, then weigh them in.

Sorry, I honestly thought you wanted to have a conversation about science and whether these bracelets 'work' or not. You clearly don't, which leaves me unsure as to why you quoted me in the first place. Possibly some type of humour that I don't understand. I'm sometimes not terribly good at it.

Probably a very wise choice
