negative ions. The suds thing is actually probably producing some negative ions in suppressing static, as do most anti-cling additives like Downey fabric softeners.

In my case, i was given a phiten wrist band which claims to use a titanium compound (probably TiO2 which has catalytic properties when exposed to UV) to help with my left arm which underwent a fistula. One noticeable aspect to the wrist band, other than helping circulation (my hand feels noticeably warmer), is that my car stereo has better bass, lower midrange and dynamics. Hanging my arm, wristband on, outside the window shows a reduction in the same frequency response range. Interesting....

The phiten craze is quite popular where I live, and I have seen stories about the Major League Baseball players using it (necklaces, etc.). My sister in law who is a nurse actually recommended it. They make clothing as well as a lotion out of it, too.

The titanium oxide is quite interesting in itself. There is a company marketing a compact fluorescent bulb coated with it, claiming that it has antibiotic properties. Other than a pigment for white paints, it also has usage in anti fogging and self cleaning glass and other interesting properties
