Magnetism help prevent aging?

It is about magnetic rings, you wear them while sleepeng on your fingers. Guy that created this Alex Chiu is really weard (he claims that he invented immortality), but it seems that his stuff works. (it was even mentioned in Kevin Thrudeau s book)
What do you think about this? Is this worth trying?

Newsflash: Flocks of Pigs seen soaring high above Yorkshire dales!

I love the way that someone advertiting what would be the most important invention since the wheel has such a crappy website populated relentlessly with spinning triangles

That man is weird, and his site too. And his invention , but truth is always crazy, too.

Personally i'd sooner smoke my own toenails than take it seriously without a serious amount of evidence to back it up.

Immortality and physical perfection for about £50. Bargain. My favourite was the Space Station - apparently black holes aren't magic.

So the syllogism goes:

This man is weird
The Truth is always crazy
Thus the invention works

That right?

Why are Einstien, Tesla and Eddison randomly on there? I suppose next you'll tell us that you're 2500 years old and knew Cæsar?

Magnetic jewellery might not be the key to immortality but there is evidence that it does work for a lot of muscoloskeletal aches and pains...thats pretty good for £50

p.s why would anyone want to be immortal anyway? Life is so limited in reality. I hate thinking about when I retire...I'd probably die of boredom a few weeks in
