If NASA reports that astronauts no longer suffer osteoporosis, because centrifugal force simulated the gravity that was lacking, I would be shown to be incorrect. Nothing under that premise is solving the problem, though. That would be a refutation of my claims.
I think gravity also is necessary. Studies show that liquids congest/pool-up in the chest area. I think that's mainly because you become the center of gravity. Centrifugal force should alleviate/solve this problem. And, I have seen reports indicating a lack of gravity may disrupt the behavior of magnetic bacteria. But as I said, evidence indicates where a compass needle does not work, you should not function properly either. Recent reports telling of research using vibration show positive results. This could be a method of decreasing stagnation within the cell, however, not naturally. But perhaps it could be a temporary aid in treating those suffering from cell stagnation from prolonged inactivity.
The common denominator between infants with SIDS, older people with osteoporosis, and the astronauts with osteoporosis, is not a lack of gravity. But it is a lack of movement, in the magnetic field. But, also, a commmon denominator is a lack of movement in gravity. The magnetite is being reported found in our bodies.

"Well, yes, but there is knowledge to be gained, sometimes, by debunking such claims.
Magnets and magnetism comes and goes as a therapy for treating this and that. There are guys at work who wear magnetic bracelets and necklaces for chronic pain.
If pushed, those who tout the curative effects of magnets usually point to iron in the blood, and increased blood flow in the magnetized area.
In which case, everyone would have the blood sucked out of them in an MRI.
One of the ways to quickly asses an hypothesis or idea is to see how well it predicts.
Sure, the above post reads like hokum, but it might be a worthwhile exercise to understand why you think it is so."
