People often wear magnetic jewelry for health purposes, which is the so-called magnetic therapy. Magnetotherapy doctors claim that wearing magnetic jewelry on specific parts of the human body can relieve pain, promote blood circulation, and speed up recovery. Although magnetic jewelry has some health benefits, it is also harmful and may even cause death in certain groups of people.
Pacemaker
Magnetic fields can interfere with pacemaker signals and may cause equipment failure. For this reason, people with pacemakers should not wear magnetic jewelry.
Defibrillator
People who use defibrillators should also not wear magnetic jewelry; magnetic fields can interfere with the signal and cause the defibrillator to fail.
Internal insulin pump
People who use internal insulin pumps should also avoid magnetic jewelry; magnetic fields can interfere with the timing of the delivery device and cause incorrect insulin pump pressure.
Other electronic medical equipment
People who have electronic medical equipment implanted in their bodies cannot wear magnetic jewelry either. The magnetic field of jewelry may affect the operation of the device. In addition, if your partner uses electronic medical equipment, it is best to remove this jewelry when touching it.
