Since my thread on this topic existed first I've closed Cranky Media Guy's thread. I have, however, copied his comments to this one because I never bothered with any myself.
Here's some more magnetic hooey:
These are magnetic holders into which you can place your glass of booze,
allegedly aging it in the process.
As we all know, magnets have amazing properties, which are NEVER harmful
when built into an inexplicable device. While the holder will continue to
age your drink for as long as it is in it, the holder will NEVER harm the
drink. One might think that a over-aged drink would taste like crap. Nope,
at least not according to the purveyors of this gewgaw.
Is there ANYTHING magnets can't do?
A thought: If you drank one of these magnetically-enhanced drinks while
wearing a LifeWave patch, would your head explode or would you live forever?
Distilled Liquor–10 + seconds
Wine – 30 + seconds
Fruit Juice – 10–30 + seconds
Milk – 10–30 + seconds
These are suggested minimum times. The longer you leave your beverage in the Shooter Buddy the better the aging effects. Shooter Buddy will never harm a beverage.
most beverages will age ten years in approximately ten seconds.
Milk? I prefer mine to be, how shall I put this...
NOT ten years old.
Isn't it simply amazing that, no matter how much you "age" your drink, including milk, it will NOT be harmed? I, in my pseudo-scientific ignorance, thought that old milk was bad. As I said, is there ANYTHING magnets can't do?
Sorry I didn't realize there was already a thread on these things. My bad, as the kids say.
2. They claim to cure everything. That's always a bad sign.
3. Lot's of testimonials. If they really were a legitimate scientific organization they would know personal anecdotal evidence means nothing when it comes to proving whether or not a particular treatment works. Show us the properly conducted peer-reviewed repeatable studies published in respected medical journals.
4. What scientific explanations they do provide make no sense whatsoever. They're just a potpourri of scientific and pseudoscientific terms that have no relationship to one another. Of course they count on you not knowing that.
5. They use Kirlian photography to allegedly show how their system enhances cells. I like my cells normal, thank you. This one alone proves they're wacko.
6. They put a lot of emphasis on "toxins". That's a classic buzzword of the alternative health industry. They want us to believe we are full of "toxins" and need to remove them. If we really did have all these toxins they talk about, I think we'd be dead already. Someone's full of something all right.
7. All the "experts" quoted are quack alternative medicine followers. Why is it they all seem to congregate around these new fads that conventional medicine knows nothing about? Obviously they didn't have what it takes to make it in the conventional medical world.
8. Other questionable items too numerous to list and probably not worth the effort.
These clowns really want us to believe there's a huge conspiracy to keep these new "discoveries" secret. They do this by demonizing the conventional medical world, saying they are close minded, behind the times, not as smart as us. Even worse, they do it behind their backs, obviously because they want to avoid facing real scientific scrutiny, not to mention government regulators.
Oh, I forgot. It's a really good way to make M_O_N_E_Y!!!!!
