Quiet homes - feature from BBC news

Live healthy and long

I watched a BBC news feature last night about quiet homes/ideal homes in UK.It was mentioned at the beginning that noise affects cardio vascular health.  The noise comes from vehicles and household appliances.

2.  quiet appliances;  quiet marks are issued

3.  digital pianos, drum sets and other sound appliances so that they can just be heard by the player

From Magnetic Science 

Here is a comprehensive article and Q and A on use of magnets for health.  Since ancient times, Ancient Greeks, Chinese, Arabs, and Indians have used magnets for health.  The oldest use has been traced 100,000 years ago in Africa, where African bloodstones, magnetites have been found.

Millions who use them swear by the instant relief they got from magnets for pains on joints, arms, legs, feet, back. 

Use of magnets is part of alternative medicine.  US Health Care costs one trillion dollars in l996 (it is 3 trillion dollars now and less than 10 % is used for alternative medicine

However there are conflicting views on magnets and health:
