Pyramid power

Pyramid power refers to the belief that the pyramids of ancient Egypt and objects of similar shape can confer a variety of benefits. Among these assumed properties are the ability to preserve foods,^[1] sharpen or maintain the sharpness of razor blades,^[2] improve health,^[3] function "as a thought-form incubator",^[4] trigger sexual urges,^[5] and cause other effects. Such unverified conjectures regarding pyramids are collectively known as pyramidology.

There is no scientific evidence that pyramid power exists.^[6]^[7]^[8]
