Hi Cactus1

I haven't tried Nikken magnets so I can't say from experience. However, I have googled them and this is what I have found.

Firstly, I can't find anything positive about any science involved in the theory. There are lots of links to articles and items that seem to originate from Nikken themselves or people that seem to be selling the products or distributors. Well of course they are all going to say they work aren't they. Personally I don't tend to take any notice of what people have to say about a product if they have a vested interest UNLESS they can provide genuine scientific evidence to back up their claims. So far all I have found is a few mentions of Nikken being taken to court because of making false claims about some of their products. Hmmm!!

Secondly, I have found these links from seemingly independent people or organisations looking into the science, the claims and background of the company and also the psychology as to why we believe things.

Thirdly, having read these articles myself (though I confess not studied them in depth due to ME brain fog) it seems to me that the company use a method of selling that is remarkably similar to the infamous and highly dubious practice of pyramid selling. I would always be highly suspicious of any product sold by this sort of method as any reviews you read are highly likely to be based on the person talking having a vested interest. Perhaps that is just my opinion.

Having said all that I have several pairs of earrings and necklaces or bracelets that use hematite and magnets for purposes of health. But I also happen to like them because they didn't cost a lot of money and are nice looking pieces of jewellery. Who knows whether they make me feel better or my diet does or my meds. But at least I like the look of them and they didn't break the bank.

Overall I know what I think but will leave you to do your research and make your own mind up.

Take care
