Has anyone heard of this bullshit product called a...
Edited on Sun Sep-27-09 02:43 PM by SDuderstadt
"bionic band"? I have encountered it at several different tradeshows and know that it's bullshit, yet I can't seem to find any critical analysis of it. I've also noticed that doing a Google search seems to pull up only complimentary mention, however, I suspect this is the result of the people behind this sham product having mastered SEO (search engine optimization). The prooduct's site provides this "information" about how it "works":

How It Works

Perfect World Solution’s differentiating factor is “Proton Alignment Resonance Technology ™” (P.A.R.T), which aligns the protons of the nucleus of base minerals (metal, glass, and much more) at a subatomic level. A state of the art machine aligns all the protons of the mineral content in Perfect World Solutions’ products to spin (or resonate/vibrate) the same way. At this point the minerals are considered "imprinted".

Our "Imprinted" material communicates this proton aligned state through a frequency that our body immediately recognizes and responds to. The body’s protons align, communicate and work together. This cellular teamwork is why we get such an instant and dramatic physical change. It works exactly like a tuning fork for the body (this is also called "Sympathetic Resonance"). The reason our bodies respond so dramatically to this newly introduced frequency is because it is our bodies’ own natural frequency.

Why does this help you? Imagine you have trillions of protons in your body, and you are consistently being bombarded with thousands of different frequencies. These frequencies come from such things as cell phone towers, power lines, radio and TV stations (each station is a different frequency), computers and their monitors, and just about anything that you plug into the wall. These frequencies cause the protons in your body to resonate (vibrate) and mimic all of those external frequencies.

I am certain that "Proton Alignment Resonance Technology" is total bullshit. Can anyone help me here?

2. Links to any critical analysis....
I got into a pretty heated discussion with the people shilling this sham at the tradeshow.

3. If you apply a magnetic field to something...
a small proportion of the protons in the substance will spin align with the magnetic field.

Everything else is just random logorrhea.

It's like trying to analyze timecube. You can't analyze random words strung together.
