		<description>I wonder whether anybody can enlighten me as to what the USB product on the QLink website might actually do.

My colleagues and I have been puzzling this one around the kettle and we think it does just about as much as the original pe(n)dant but we&#039;d appreciate confirmation of our suspicions.</description>

		<description>I have to agree with the other recent posts. Unless you try it you don&#039;t know how good it can be. I&#039;m sure 100 years ago anyone who talked or theorized about nuclear energy etc were debunked, mocked by people like this.
I have bought several over the years for many family and friends - probably 8 I think in total - only 1 of them said it did nothing and gave it back to me to get a refund.
I bought mine from here:

		<description>No doubt Mr. Holford&#039;s massively spiritually enlightened intellect is what has earned him all those deeply respectful (and surely not in any way gullible) people who have benefited from his nutritional advice. If only I were aware of a life outside of science so that I too could appreciate the wonders of the natural world and it&#039;s energies. Then I&#039;d be able to blindly cough up a stupid amount of money for an unnecessary and scientifically dubious product and actually believe that it would do me some good. Maybe some day I will be blessed with a faith like that of Mr. Holford&#039;s supporters, but in the meantime I&#039;ll have to just rely on good old fashioned reality.</description>

		<description>I would also add that Patrick Holford is actually someone who with his nutrition works solely from pure double blind placebo&#039;d science. He is a deeply respected Nutritionist and has helped many thousands of people to better health and wellbeing. I wonder, once again, if any of you have actually read any of his books and checked out the science behind tham. The difference with a scientist such as Patrick Holford and some people who seem to frequent your site is that he is also aware of a life outside of science, the wonders of the natural world and it&#039;s energies.Wishing you all health and happiness.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I would also add that Patrick Holford is actually someone who with his nutrition works solely from pure double blind placebo&#8217;d science. He is a deeply respected Nutritionist and has helped many thousands of people to better health and wellbeing.

		<description>I&#039;m surprised that none of you egg heads didn&#039;t think to try this device out and find out for yourselves! Surely the best way to rubbish it would be to wear it for 90 days - find there was no effect and then you would feel smug and superior......or maybe you would have found the true benefits, of something that cannot be explained by your precious science, were real. Now where would that have left you? Far better to mock and scoff and drill into things, jump up and down on them and generally behave like a bunch of school kids. Those of us who can think outside of the &#039;scientific box&#039; and are not blinkered by having to &#039;understand&#039; everything have very satisfying and wonderful lives trusting our own judgement and not needing a &#039;scientist&#039; to prove we exist! Blessings!</description>

		<description>drilling into it? surely the smart approach would be to analyse its effects on cells within the body. this experiment has fortunately been done showing dramatic improvement in cell quality. bad science your name seems to sum it up</description>

		<description>Dear Ben,

I have just done a Patrick Holford themed Scientific English lesson here in Nantes. Your Qlink article was the required reading for the first student roleplay, which consisted in a couple of customers in a shop asking the owner what the Qlink does and how it works. Luckily, a sales rep for the Qlink just happened to be there to answer all their questions about the scientific basis of the device. Here is a picture of the poster he used to explain the Qlink&#039;s marvelous properties.

Sadly, the second part of the lesson was a re-enactment of the discussion at Teesside University, conferring Patrick Holford&#039;s visiting professorship.</description>

		<description>the &quot;Bad Science&quot; testing of the QLINK looks like a bunch of kindergarted kids trying to understand how a transistor radio functions by attacking it with hammers and screw-drivers. And after a couple of hours disintegrating the radio and still being unavble to understand how the music is produced by the various metallic and plastic parts - they declare this device as &quot;bad science&quot; and instead ascrive the musing source as a little man who usually resides in tehradion but escaped before they attacked it. 

Basically what I am saying is: if &quot;Bad Science&quot; want to appear as serious and address the scientific integrity of a device they should conduct their investigation with a bit more professionalism, do their home work by reading the literature and have someone knowledgeable/professional to conduct the study, rather than a couple of amateurs (=Bad Science editors).</description>

		<description>Don&#039;t know anything about Kim Jobst but you can find out on the web that he works in Hereford and is a medical homeopath like Peter Fisher.

He is also, it appears, visiting professor in &quot;health care and integrated medicine&quot; at Oxford Brookes University.

He is a fan of Brazilan New Age mystic Paolo Coelho:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paulo_Coelho

Apparently from The Independent, Aug 26 2001 though I found it some other website:

&quot;Coelho&#039;s fact is often stranger than fiction - something which is perhaps central to his books&#039; mass-appeal. &quot;His books are important because they are about finding meaning in life,&quot; says Professor Kim Jobst of Oxford Brookes University, a holistic physician who gives Coelho&#039;s writings to patients. &quot;Someone with an apparently intractable illness can find a different meaning in their life and get better. You know his experiences are partly fictionalised but the truth comes through the words. The message is that you must never give up believing that magic - the seemingly impossible, improbable and unexpected - can happen in a twinkling.&quot;</description>
