I haven't done a scam post for some time, though they seem to be my most popular. Akusoli are insoles with magnets in, purported to reduce various aches and pains, and also reduce body fat, by acupressure. A pair will set you back £30 to £90 depending on whatever offer they are offering at the time.
Interestingly trustpilot reviews are generally favorable. Until you read them. It looks as if they get their customers to write a review as part of the ordering process, meaning that the review writer hasn't actually tried them yet. Reviews from those who have received and used them are, unsurprisingly, not so positive.
And there is no reason why they should be. Acupuncture, and acupressure are both alternative medicine practices with no credible or reputable research showing any benefit. Oh, come on. Does it sound feasible that magnetic insoles would have any effect. Get real!
But the sellers know full well how slimming and pain relieving products appeal to the desperate. The advertising blurb for these things is bullshit, with numerous pseudoscientific claims, all fallacious, and the product itself manifest garbage.
Save your money. Don't be taken in.
