Came across Phiten at some shopping centres recently and did some research online. These necklaces or bracelets are suppose to enhance the body’s energy level and improve muscles’ flexibility. Seems like there are quite a fair bit of people who swore by it. The product contains aqua-titanium, aqua-gold and micro-titanium spheres! But of course cannot be viewed by naked eyes. *sadded*

I was at Tampines 1 last week with buddies and we came across Phiten at one of the levels. They have a small test to prove that the product works.

Basically, the  test is about lifting approximately 3kg of load with your index finger. Your palm will be facing upwards, clenched with only the index finger sticking out. First, you will lift the load without the necklace and next you will be lifting it with the necklace in your hand.

It seems to me that it is easier to lift the load with the necklace! I repeated the test once more and the result is the same. Anybody tried the test as well?

Now I am wondering whether it is really helpful or is it just a mental effect. But really feel like buying it though.
