Cell communication for more energy, weight loss and better sleep
ANSWER: You have asked an interesting question that really cuts to the chase in discussing this new technology.  After all, the term nanotechnology is a catch-all term for the science of developing products that are designed at the molecular and atomic level.  By manipulating matter at such incredibly small dimensions (about one-billionth of a meter), existing materials can take on entirely new properties, and new products can be produced that were never possible before.It is important to understand that nanotechnology is not a specific technology but rather a broad-based class of enabling technologies that will impact many industries and professions in the years ahead.  Its impact on product development will ultimately be as significant as the impact we have seen computers have in our lifetime.  The National Science Foundation has predicted that the global market for nanotechnologies will reach $1 trillion or more within 20 years.A tremendous amount of research is currently happening at the nano-level in a wide range of industries.  However, this technology is still relatively new, so most of the applications that have reached the market thus far involve materials with new properties that are being used to improve existing products.  For example, new ingredients have been developed by a cosmetic company to improve the performance of its skincare products.  An automobile company is using new composites to make car bumpers that are 60% lighter and twice as resistant to denting and scratching, and a clothing company is offering a new line of stain-resistant khaki pants.  Health related companies are now marketing anti-microbial bandages, bacteria-resistant fabrics and invisible coatings for kitchen appliances that are both anti-bacterial and anti-fungal.Industry projections say that for the next 1-5 years, most nanotechnology developments will continue to be in the area of improving materials for existing products.  These same projections indicate that entirely new classes of products that will be impossible to develop without nanotechnology are farther off, perhaps 5-15 years.  Examples of these new products are expected to be applications for medical diagnostics and treatments, faster computers and special types of sensors, many of which will be incredibly small.  Medical professionals are already dreaming of tiny diagnostic robots which can be inserted into the bloodstream and travel throughout the body to gather data, take pictures, and possibly even perform specific medical procedures.  For most of us, such developments are beyond comprehension.  However, 25 years ago, we would have found it equally difficult to comprehend the electronic technologies that have become so common in our lives today.There is one company that has a small adhesive-backed plastic patch that looks like a round Band-Aid.  Totally sealed within the patch is a piece of fabric saturated with specific organic compounds.  When the patch is placed within 1-2 inches of the body, the compounds interact with the body's energy field and begin to produce a weak FM signal that is providing instructions to specific cells, and creating a specific result.   Nothing enters the body except the information contained in the FM signal.  The company calls this product "software for the human body."This product enhances the energy of people wearing the patch and significantly increases their strength and endurance.  The results are well documented and are supported by dozens of independent 3rd party double-blind placebo-controlled studies.  Since there are no drugs involved and nothing enters the body, the patches were used in the 1994 Olympics, are currently used by many athletes at all levels, and are used by normal people who are looking for a safe way of enjoying more energy as they go through their busy day. An interesting aspect of this technology is that scientists can change the FM signal by changing the make-up of the compounds in the patch.  In doing this, instructions are being delivered to different cells, and different results are achieved.  For instance, this company has develolped a second patch that, when worn as instructed, results in a deeper and more restful sleep. Nanotechnology is a science that we will hear much more about in the future.
