Developed and used by Gaylord Wilshire a year earlier, the electric belt named the Ionaco reached peak sales in 1926. Supposedly a device to help magnetize the iron in the body and increase oxygen in the blood (thereby increasing health), the Ionaco sold about 50,000 units. But the American Medical Association criticized the inventor’s claims, and device sales declined by 1927.
