    well, well, well, science is always right, i bank on it in my 18,000+ postings:p
    Soooooooooo, if phiten said its product is unaffected by other products, even the mighty, exclusive and more expensive TR, does this prove that phiten's claim of rebalancing one's body natural bio electric current flow is...... mildly speaking....ineffective? If it is inert to all other stuffs, wouldn't it be inert to one's body too?:p:cool:

    heck no, it's non-scientific, it's hocus-pocus repacked as new-age treatment.

    Today Is A Good Day

    'Tablas Recoup' rearranged gives you 'Absolute Crap'.
    But that doesn't mean any of this is untrue, does it? :eek:

    I am quite neutral about all these thingies. But I start to question about the jumping height. A basketball hoop is 10' and if you are only 6' (considered very short for basketball player) and you are already able to jump with your arm to a height of 11'-9" which is 1'-9" above the hoop and you want us to buy that ???????
    Imagine if those regular basketball players ranging from 6'-6" to 7' + if they could ONLY jump like you, wow.
    I respect you as a moderator and your kindness to upload all the videos but for this bit of information I would consider that to be totally BS.

    I'm worried that you are neutral and not sceptical :eek:

    Of course, it is all unadulterated BS.
    Isn't that what I said three posts ago?

    I am not talking about 'Tablas Recoup' , I am talking about how high you can jump, my friend. Sorry if I misled you.

    works for me

    Certainly Phiten product is not for everyone. My experience has been positive when wearing, it doesn't make me jump higher or smash harder but ceratainly make my body recover faster. For example, I wasn't able to play consecutive days of badminton before and now I can play Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday. I also use to have cramp after playing vigirouns matches but now that hasn't happened plus I can actually climb upstair, after matches, at home.
    I have the X30 version, looks cool and to get better price, buy from Amazon.com, lots of sellers there.

    I actually have tried few of the Phiten products including Phiten X30 necklace, Phiten Power sleeve and Phiten wrist band. I started with power sleeve about 2 years ago when I suffered from tennis elbow unable to lift even a light object and gotten desperate and tried so many external medicine without success. I won't say the power sleeve totally save my days but certainly did contribute in my recovery, I also took plenty of rest(about 6-8 weeks) without badminton wearing power sleeve plus the wrist band during that period of time.
    Like I've sais before, Phiten is not for everyone, my sisster in law suffers from arthritis and the Phiten shirt did not do any good and costly.(Again desperate situation calls for desperate measure)
    So is it worth it? You be the judge!

    Now, why would that be?

    Do antibiotics not work for some people? Do painkillers?
    Does an MRI not work for some people? Does casting a broken leg not work on everyone?
    (just in case you wonder, the answer is no)

    ...But... Do placebo's work for everyone?
    (no, placebo's don't...quit a lot like phiten stuff)

    Technically, the answer is yes.

    Different people may be allergic to different antibiotics. Painkillers works to a different extend on different people. MRI, not when you are using a pacemaker.

    However, whether phiten stuff works on anyone at all is the question.

    i think jerby meant for 'normal' people.
    let me refine jerby's examples.
    u see, jerby's comparsion using those listed remedies aren't suitable comparsion. Those are 'active' remedies which each bodies will react differently, no questions about that. However, phiten IS AN PASSIVE DEVICE. It claim to rebalance (a vague term) body's electrical flow. Unless one is dead or in a coma, a living creatures has natural field and charges. Therefore, these passive devices should work for all if it works at all. That is why phiten et al devices don't require medical or health and safety certification, it is indifferent on people whether they are sleeping, awake, with or without pacemaker, If phiten doesn't affect a pacemaker, why should it rebalance your much weaker electrical current flow?

    Last night, I was nearly hit by a Humvee driven by a green Martian.
    Just when a collision seemed certain, the Humvee veered off the road.

    I now realise what happened at that last instant.
    It is my Tablas Recoup wristband that saved me :)

    The TR wristband contains a deflecto-protein that repels heavy metals.
    If the Humvee had been made of plastic, it would have surely hit me :eek:
