The Goop website says the Body Vibes stickers "rebalance the energy frequency in our bodies" and "fill in the deficiencies in your reserves, creating a calming effect, smoothing out both physical tension and anxiety." And claimed (in a statement that's since been taken down) that the $160-per-10-pack stickers are "made with the same conductive carbon material NASA uses to line space suits so they can monitor an astronaut's vitals during wear."

But a spokesperson for NASA tells PEOPLE that they "do not line their spacesuits with conductive carbon material."

Mark Shelhamer, former chief scientist at NASA's human research division, wasn't wooed by Body Vibes or its secret research.

"Wow," he told Gizmodo. "What a load of BS this is."

Shelhamer reiterated that space suits are not lined with carbon material, and that even if they were, it would be for adding strength to the suit—not for monitoring vital signs.
