Rare earth neodymium magnet is the newest generation and the most powerful magnet so far, there are lots of uses of it, here I present on how to make a fancy jewelry with these magnets.

I keep a good-sized N50 attached to my keychain and not shielded at all. Just to be on the safe side, my keys go in a different pocket than my wallet and I don't set them down within a few inches of each other. My cards have been just fine so far. (I have not experimented with this, but the MythBusters found credit cards surprisingly difficult to erase.)
Your comment has nothing to do with what I said. Have you ever used magnets for therapy before? Or are you just trying to get a responce from me..?
Hemoglobin has been experimentally determined to exhibit diamagnetism. Like water and other components of your cells, it cannot be magnetized, has no north or south orientation, and is very weakly repelled by a strong magnet.
As far as studies, they seem to be mainly with extremely strong MRI magnets and do not show any effect. For example, this one used a 94,000 gauss field. The only studies I see that show a possible effect on blood flow are ones that demonstrate decreased flow in capillaries.
Yet many people do believe in the effects. As you would know, the human brain is a very complex. You can will yourself to become unwell aswell as a bit of positive thinking can improve your overall being. Humans are fical creatures, I was merely pointing out that some people could be effected.
On the topic of placebo's, that term has been coined to explain the effects of something europeans can't verbalise correctly. History tells us that in many other cultures placebo's are perseaved differently and instead of being the outlining instances that disprove a theory, they are looked apon as examples of benefits in non medicinal practises.
Perhaps we could understand why we become sick unexplainably if we could understand why we can will ourselves to become better.
Neodymium magnets are always plated or coated with another substance, since the magnets themselves will quickly rust away if exposed to air. They are also somewhat brittle. In my experience, they are about as resistant to chipping as unglazed pottery; you can snap small ones together without damage as long as you're holding onto them.
I have read that using sphere magnets for jewelry will cause the nickel coating to wear off at the point of contact. If you use cylinder magnets (click the search button here), the contact is spread out along a line, rather than a point.
Here's an example of how to find the price. You would probably want to find a local supplier for Australia.
