159/365 Energy Armor

Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,

My sister Kathleen gave me an Energy Armor band for Christmas. I had heard about these before and saw one on this woman who has run 70 marathons, many biathalons, and even more 5ks. She said she got it because it was supposed to help with energy and balance but wasn't sure if it was working.

Energy Armor is a silicone band that has negative ions inserted into the holograms that are on the bracelet. Negative ions have been found to "have a positive effect on good health and even aging." Energy Armor says that the bracelet won't instantly make you better at everything. Rather they claim that it will maximize the strengths you already have. They state that negative ions provide positive results such as these:
- higher level of focus
- improved flexibility and balance
- increased feeling of serenity
and more which you can read on their site. 


I haven't found many other articles about the Energy Armor bands. I can tell you though that I have been wearing it for a few days now and I feel good. Nothing bad has happened which is good, there's no negative effect from wearing it.  I haven't worked out enough times wearing it to really know if it helps with recovery time. I do think my sleep has been quite restful and I have felt calm and relaxed since I got it a couple days before Christmas.


The jury is still out on this Energy Armor. I think it is cool, I like it, and I'd like to think that it is working. Just remember of course that Energy Armor does not claim that their product will help for everyone and there isn't much research on it. Still, I am grateful for the gift and will continue to explore what these negative ions are doing for me.


In health,


Lauren
