blood is made up of many components like red blood corpuscles,white blood corpulscles, plasma, platlets. of these red blood cells contains haemoglobin which contains iron. we of course know that iron is attracted by magnets. but when we keep a magnet near our body we do not have the feeling of blood flowing more near that part of our body.if this happens then we are on earth which is like a magnet then we would say that we are caught onto thhis earth by this attraction and large amount of the blood flows into ourleg. this brings about swelling of the legs. comment on this topic and share your ideas.

Not all iron compounds are ferro-magnetic ... it all depends on the arangement of the atoms in the structure ... stainless steel is a good example of this.

Must be that when god created us, he must haf thought of this and reduced the artery size connected to the legs. And i dont know if any one can feel their haemoglobins move. so it is hard to say that they are not attracted towards the magnet.
