What do you think of this guy?
Hello. I am writing to comment on your web page related to the work of Alex Chiu. I am a graduate student at the University of Miami, and I would like to point out the following to you, after having personally conducted tests on Chiu's devices. If you would like to see the full report, I would be more then happy to do send it to you. This is a summary of my findings.
Chiu's products are based in several alternative medicine theories. This much is true. However, the reasons why those methods work does have a scientific explanation accompanied by observable and measurable data. For example, acupuncture points are actually located at minor nerve clusters in the body, and thus, alterations in the electrical signals sent from these nodes can be synthetically generated by stimulating them. Acupuncture works because this is done directly.
After studying Alex Chiu's magnets, measuring subject's reactions via EKG monitors, and observations of cell mitosis, I conclude that Alex Chiu's devices not only fail to stop or even slow aging, but generate no observable changes in the body's electrical flow. The EKG results of several subjects were compared in three different settings. One group of subjects underwent acupuncture, to establish the validity of Chiu's basis, which is that the human body's electrical flow can be stimulated. This proved true, as background reasearch suggested. The second group was our control group, and wore rings and braceletes that had no magnetic properties. Finally, the experimental group wore Alex Chiu's immortality devices. In keeping with double-blind study procedure, the individual conducting the tests was told that we were studying the effects of these stimuli on sleep. All subjects showed no response to Chiu's devices.
Sample cells were taken from the same group of individuals from various parts of the body. You see, aging is primarily caused by genetic mutations which occur during cell mitosis (the process by which cells reproduce themselves). As such, in order to prevent aging and make immortality a possibility, mutations would need to be eliminated. It is theoretically possible that slowing down the rate of mitosis in the human body could prolong life, but this has a severe drawback, which is a reduction in the body's ability to heal injury and strengthen itself. This would affect our ability to grow muscles and bones, develop our brains, etc. Chiu states that his product increases healing rates by a phenomenal margine. If this is true, then his product would by nature have to accelerate aging, not eliminate it. This was all concluded during background research, but nonetheless, I wanted to see if his product would have any effect on cell mitosis. As with the EKG readings, none of the subjects of the experimental group experienced anything the control group did not.
I conducted this study purely out of interest, and admittedly, I am required to conduct such experiments regularly for the sake of my education. I am informing you of these results because I feel that you, like a great many other people, have been duped by something that is entirely fake. In this day and age, people have enough difficulty affording legitimate cures for their illnesses. They do not need to spending their money on plastic toys.
I am not saying that alternative medicine is nothing more than a scam. I am saying that Alex Chiu's rings are. I frimly believe that there are many techniques practiced in "alternative medicine" that have scientific basis. However, these techniques cannot cure cancer, they will not eliminate herpes or AIDS, and nothing can make immortality possible. I can respect your desire to believe in such a miraculous invention, but I felt compelled to inform you of my findings. Neither you nor anybody else should waste their money, their time, or their attention on Alex Chiu or his "inventions." I hope that you will see these rings for what they are, and cease supplying the public with false remedies. I appreciate your willingness to read this e-mail, and hope that you will make a decision based on these facts. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Ben Kraftchick
I don't think he really conducted that study.
Anyway, if he did, it just proves Alex Chiu's Rings don't stop or slow mitosis, and this is good because, as Ben himself explains, mitosis is absolutly necessary.
But there is nothing in that study that proves Alex Chiu's Rings don't stop aging.
He starts from the assumption that Im. Rings MUST stop mitosis to stop aging and that there is not another way. That's wrong. THey can stop aging in another way, for example strengthening all cellular and molecular process, so that genetic mutations can be corrected by cell's proof-reading mechanisms ( which are present in all cells and are very effective ) and telomers can be prolonged even if mitosis go on many times.
To test properly Rings' effectiveness we should check parameters like blood pressure, heart rate, cortisol/hormones level in blood, liver enzymes, skin hydratation etc
After some weeks or some month with Rings most of these parameters should improve. That would mean they have a strong anti-aging effect. but to know exactly how strong is that effect we should check for at least 10 years
Stopping mitosis would be a real danger, my mother had 2 tumor removal surgery and she had to undergo to chemiothrepay, actually chemio stops cellular mitosys , the effect are hair loss, nail loss, massive eye lacrimation and other effects i am not mentionig.
Rings uses chi force, which is not understood by science.
He should have done test on skin smoothness and blood pressure.
As said, the test only proves that the rings don't appear to have any effect through one particular mechanism. The claims made in conclusion are not supported by the results. This of course contrasts with all of Alex's claims which are fully verified by him :lol:
The guy who wrote that appears intelligent and to have an understanding of how to actually conduct a scientific study, so I think there's a reasonable chance he actually did the claimed experiment. Then again there's also
a high schooler in Miami named Ben Kraftchick, who's clearly enthusiastic about science. He was in 7th grade in 2004, so even if he skipped a few grades I don't see how he'd already be a grad student. If it was him who wrote that, he's one smart kid.
Sac, email this guy and tell him to come here to discuss his results.
no , that test doesn't "prove that the rings don't appear to have any effect thorugh one particular mechanism".
He just checked mitosis! There are 1 billion other mechanisms he didn't check, on which Rings can have effects.

You seem to have understood my statement in an unintended way. The "one particular mechanism" I was referring to in my post was mitosis. I didn't mean one particular mechanism as opposed to multiple mechanisms.
