Re: Which bracelet?

The products involved in the study were "Bioflow" wristbands
manufactured by Ecoflow plc, a UK company based in Cornwall. I know this because the units used in the trial were standard "Bioflow" units employing central-reverse-polarity (CRP) TM magnetic modules; only Ecoflow products have CRP, it is their patented design.
