Question:

Is there any magnetic material in the human body?

I just got a couple 1x1 inch neodymium magnets ( holy **** they‘re strong) and I‘ve been working on them to cover them with electrical tape to keep any magnetic dust from permanently clinging to them. However I‘ve started to notice a slight pain in my hands. I don‘t know if the magnet is causing it or if I‘m just imagining it.

Answer:

Yes, there is Iron located in the blood. If one needs proof just look at the nutritional value section of your cereal box
Definitely imagining it. The placebo effect is a powerful thing. There is a vanishingly small amount of iron in your bloodstream, but not nearly enough to feel it even if the magnet could attract it.
Not all of iron in the suppliments are absorbed after digestion
Cause they'll say anything to make more money! Even though that much iron can be very dangerous, they'll suck a few people in!!
