hi guys.
was wondering if human brain is effected when it is in a magnetic field.
cheers

This is interesting: the brief suppression of the visual field by magnetic stimulation of the visual centers.somasimple said:Hi all,
yes,

I'm skeptical, and even leary of, this treatment. At high frequencies it causes seizures, which means at lower frequencies it probably works by disorganizing neuronal firing as well.adrenaline said:It may be a promising treatment for bipolar depression (exposure to MRI field)
This was a noted one in clinical circles published in the American Journal of Psychiatry.. Of course, we don't know how long its effects are etc.

This logic is only valid if iron was in his metal form but it isn't. Iron salts aren't attracted by magnets.My logic on this is that the magnetic field will attract red blood cells and help with circulation to my feet at night.
The human brain produces its own magnetic field through the movement of electrical signals, also known as brain waves. This magnetic field can be measured using specialized equipment, and is influenced by external magnetic fields as well.
There is ongoing research on the potential effects of exposure to magnetic fields on the brain. Some studies have shown that exposure to high levels of magnetic fields can cause changes in brain activity, while others have not found significant effects. More research is needed to fully understand the impact of magnetic field exposure on the brain.
Research on the use of magnetic fields for brain stimulation, known as transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), has shown potential benefits for treating conditions such as depression and chronic pain. However, the use of TMS is still being studied and is not currently a widely used treatment.
There is some evidence to suggest that magnetic fields may have an impact on memory and cognitive function. Studies have shown that exposure to specific types of magnetic fields can enhance memory and improve cognitive performance in certain tasks. However, more research is needed to fully understand the extent of this impact.
Scientists use a variety of methods to study the effects of magnetic fields on the brain, including brain imaging techniques like functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and electroencephalography (EEG). They also use specialized equipment to measure the brain's magnetic field and conduct experiments to observe changes in brain activity due to exposure to external magnetic fields.
