So just a little feedback:

You are providing relevant information but you present it like a condescending asshole.

I wasn't promoting the product or blasting out misinformation, I was actually doing the exact opposite.

I was sent this by the company to evaluate and make content about it. I was trying to do my due diligence and both doing some research and asking for personal experiences.

I value your feedback, understand your passion but you turned me off with the lecture as if I was trying to scam people into buying the products.

I do need to mention that as much as you understand the science of waves, you seem to forget the power of the mind.

If the waves are not dangerous and the shungnite does nothing, but a person honestly believes it is doing something does it bring value to their life?

Just like a lucky charm, or countless other things people spend money on that do not cause harm, provide no scientific benefit, but help with peoples mindset, attitude, behaviors etc, is that not worth something?

Just another view to consider.

Not sure how I will present the products, or if I will even make more content about it yet.

Thanks for your feedback, maybe just work on the delivery.

I'm playing with that approach. Some people respond to "this is laughable" and some need a gentler touch. The issue is spotting who is who. Imagine being a mathmatician seeing half a dozen posts a day declaring 2+2=5. That frustration sticks an extra weight on the scale when picking a path no matter how hard I try to balance it. I am human after all.

I also find that curious fence sitters are more responsive to the "what a scam joke" approach while believers fall back to declaring an unknowable superstition. If I know only one group actually changes who should I talk to? In most cases curious fence sitters are third parties and not the OP, this was an unusual one. So basically I'm responding to you technically but I'm really writing to other people.

I'll answer your question even though you skipped over mine. I'm prone to superstition myself no matter how hard I try to get it out of my thinking. Placebos do work but not as well as real things that have methods of action. So on balance we get more effect by redirecting our energy away from placebos and towards things with a method of action. Some will only pick the placebo given limited resources, those people experience a net harm by showing them the placebo option.

I bet you are a blast at parties.

Never been invited.

I joke, or do I? People love me or hate me, very few are indifferent and usually that is only because they have too little exposure to make an informed decision. I choose quality of friends over quantity, you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time around. I also get to be my true self this way and that has untold benefits for my mental health vs masking to fit in with people I don't really get along with anyway.

For my job I have a great fit. They stick me far away from the neurotypicals and give me the problems no one else can solve. I require no management beyond handing me a new nerd sniping problem when I run out of work. Everyone is happy with that arrangement.

Knowledge of self well applied to designing your life is great for your well-being.
