Q-Ray bracelet

Atomos

I see commercials for these every now and then. It is some metalic braclet that someone where that grants them some special energy or something. I cannot make out what exactly it does because the commercials are so damn vague. The commercials consist of people just saying how great the bracelet is and how it changed their life. Then they go into how some athletes wear them and so on...

I am very skpetical of a product that does not reveal the mechanism by which it does what it does, much less not revealing what it does at all.

Does anyone know about these? Is there any scientific evidence that backs up the ability of these bracelets to do whatever they do?

The Skeptic Dictionary has an entry on the Q-Ray bracelet.

Remember the copper bracelets that were suppose to do the same thing?

I've seen them worn by Ozzy Osbourne and former World's Strongest Man Bill Kazmeier. I've always heard they were bunk.

I don't know about you, but I want in on this ionizing action!

Traditional Oriental theories hold that there are two opposing forces – Yin and Yang – that flow through all living things. When these natural forces are blocked, you become unbalanced and unwell. When aligned, you perform at your peak.

The Q-Ray Ionized Bracelet is designed to balance your own bio-energy in order to promote better performance and bring about an overall sense of health and well-being the natural way.

Come on now, everone dig deep to help support this noble company, as they continue to use science to better our lives!

I have seen this on tv before. I don't know anything about it, but it sounds like a scam. Is there any truth to the thing?

Edit: HOLY S$%^! 300 bucks! NO THANK YOU.

OOOOOOOOOOH, so thats how they work. DUH! I forgot all about the bio-medical science of the Ying and the Yang. Stupid me.

This just goes to show that any commercial hack can suck money out of ignorant consumers.

Let's get real. What does a copper bracelet or magnets have to do with anything other than a scam?
