  • This would be funny if it was not so serious. Unfortunately this type of Iron is an accumulative poison which the body has trouble eliminating unlike the Iron in Vegetable and Meat. It feeds cancer cells and causes a host of other organ damage. IT SHOULD NEVER BE ADDED TO FOOD. Those with Iron deficiency should only be strictly medicated by a doctor who has determined the cause not a cereal manufacturer en masse. Try the magnet on the dust in the bottom of the packet.

  • hmmm I saw an experiment when someone smashed cornflakes added a little water and he stired it by magnet and there was sth black on it. it was iron wasn't it?

  • 'twas.

  • hmm?

  • Ok, so i tried this at home with a magnet i took from a computers harddisk.

    The cornflake will only follow the magnet, when the magnet touches the water it self, due to adhesion reasons.

    Cornflakes are not magnetic their self because the iron included in them is in the form of ironsulfid (salt), and magnetic effects are mostly only seen in relation to free iron and solid objects. So far, i can hardly belive this not being a fake or not working with the adhesion thing.

  • thank you for your coment. i saw this experiment on brainiac or sth like this. i tried it in my home and it works:) i didn't touched water, the magnet was aprox. 4mm above surface of water. i aloso tried this with speaker (there is quite strong magnet and it worked too. mayby your magnet isn't strong enough? (my engilsh isnt veru good:))

  • Iron helps build muscle. but to much IRON fuels heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and other fatal diseases. But it is in cereal. I guess we can add this to FLOURIDE and the mercury they [ the ELITES ] are making us eat.

  • @Wandering333 can i ask where abouts you saw this information? where abouts was it published? or is it like the vaccine scare?....

  • in modern methods of producing wheat flour the iron rich shell of the wheat grain is eliminated. i dont think it would be right to add iron, because it is not natural.

  • @johanna006 The bottom of the magnet was touching the water. I recreated this experiment using a piece of plastic and then a piece of glass. I was able to get the corn flake to follow both objects exactly as shown in this video.

  • @salomiegrl The iron your body needs is in the form contained in plants, not the mineral form. Otherwise you could just chew on your chair. This is toxic.

  • @DVDluvr123 The magnet was not touching the water though.

  • This video is faked!! The person who made it was taking advantage of a quality of water called “surface tension”. I won't bother to explain it here. You can easily look it up on the internet or ask a science teacher.

  • @salomiegrl Your body can't absorb unbound iron, so eat more spinach ;)

  • @liveinmymusic

    I don't get why this comment is so badly rated
