I've had both a the home and portable Elrana ion widgets for 12 months. I travelled to the US from Australia with the portable strapped to my wrist last August in Zoo class. Only about one tenth of the jet lag I normally experience. I have not had a serious cold or flu since starting to use the product. At 63 these were becoming a problem. My hay fraver, while still there, is only a minor problem and I do not awake with congested nasal passages. These ionisers are registered medical devices in Australia. Joshua Shaw is a real character and very approachable. I don't know if the reaction is in my head or in the actions of the ionizer, but something is sure doing the job! (No I'm not a relative or shareholder!} I hope this helps.
