How do magnets heal?

How do magnets heal?

•Magnets have no healing properties. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) employs very strong magnetic fields, far stronger than a household magnet can produce, and yet MRI's have no direct effect on the health of the patient (an MRI may have an indirect effect as a diagnostic tool).

•The iron in our blood is in far too low of a concentration to be affected by the weak magnetic fields of household magnets. 

•Furthermore, the iron atoms in our blood are bound in heme molecules. The chemical bonds that hold the iron atom in the heme molecule interfere with the state of its electrons, causing the iron atom to lose its usual ferromagnetic properties.


•The lack of healing properties for magnets has been established multiple times through controlled experiments.

•For instance, M.S. Cepeda and colleagues found that static magnetic fields had no effect on pain levels.

•A study performed by M.H. Pittler reviewing multiple experiments also confirmed the inability of magnets to heal. 

•It's true that all materials (including oxygen and frogs) have some kind of magnetic response.

•The problem is that it takes very intense magnetic fields for this response to be significant. 

•Household magnets, and even MRI's, are too weak to evoke any lasting effect in humans. 

•The intense magnetic fields of an MRI are used to temporarily reorient the magnetic dipoles of protons inside the body for imaging purposes. 

•After alignment, the protons quickly become unaligned due to natural thermal and biological motion, and the rate that they become unaligned can be used to image different tissues.

•If a human were exposed to static magnetic fields that were strong enough to have a significant effect, the result would be harmful, not healing. 

•Blood would build up in places where it is not supposed to, or even explode out of its vessels.

•Note that we are talking about static fields here, such as produced by permanent magnets.

•Changing magnetic fields can have significant effects, but once the field starts changing it's not really just a magnetic field anymore. 

•It becomes an electromagnetic field. Electromagnetic fields only have an effect on biological tissue if they are extremely intense (such as sunlight giving you a sunburn or a laser cutting your eye), or if they are high frequency (such as X-rays giving you cancer). 

•In any case, handheld permanent magnets create only static magnetic fields and not electromagnetic fields. The FDA considers any magnet that is sold with the claim that it has healing properties to be fraud, and litigates against such products.

Why do the Indian telecom operators offer their services with 28 days validity, not 30 days?😡😡

By
Here telecom operator are very clever, b ecause telecom operators want to earn money of 13 months instead of 12 months. Let do the calculation and find out why telecom operators are offering 28 days validity. Each month they get 2 days more, therefore in a year they get additional 24 days. There are 7 month which has 31 days so they get additional 7 days.Now in case of February  ,it has only 28 days not 30. So the total number of days they get are=24+7-2=29 days. So if you recharge 12 times then more 29 days are left in a year.🤔🤔 Means for another 29 days you have to recharge from that telecom operator.😫😫 So you have to recharge 13 times in a year instead of 12 times in a year. So telecom operators provide 28 days validity only. First one telecom operator started and then another telecom operators also understood this concept and they also applied 28 days validity both in data packs and voice packs.😱😱😱

20 Interesting science fact (PART 1)

By
1/ The speed of light is generally rounded down to 186,000 miles per second. In exact terms it is 299,792,458 m/s (metres per second - that is equal to 186,287.49 miles per second). 2/ It takes 8 minutes 17 seconds for light to travel from the Sun's surface to the Earth. 3/ October 12th, 1999 was declared \\"The Day of Six Billion\\" based on United Nations projections. 4/ 10 percent of all human beings ever born are alive at this very moment. 5/ The Earth spins at 1,000 mph but it travels through space at an incredible 67,000 mph. 6/ Every year over one million earthquakes shake the Earth. 7/ When Krakatoa erupted in 1883, its force was so great it could be heard 4,800 kilometres away in Australia. 8/ The largest ever hailstone weighed over 1kg and fell in Bangladesh in 1986. 9/ Every second around 100 lightning bolts strike the Earth. 10/ Every year lightning kills 1000 people. 11/ In October 1999 an Iceberg the size of London broke free...

A brief history of the Morse code

By
££) In  the early nineteenth century, all of the essential components necessary to construct an electrical communication system had been discovered. The most important of these were the battery by Volta, the relationship between electric current and magnetism by Oersted, and the electromagnet by Henry. It now remained for someone to find a practical method to combine these technologies into a working communication system. ££)Some  commercial electrical communications systems existed in Europe as early as the 1830s. A classic example of this is the English ‘Needle Telegraph’. The needle telegraph required two or more lines to form a complete circuit. It was relatively slow and the design of the transmitting and receiving instruments was complex. Something simple and efficient was needed. ££)The  Morse system of telegraphy was invented by Samuel Finley Breese Morse (an American painter and founder of the National Academy of Design in New York) in the 1840s ...
