Is 432 Hz the natural, healthier tuning?

432 Hz is an alternative concert-pitch tuning. Some people prefer how it sounds — that is a legitimate aesthetic preference. But the claim that 432 Hz is "natural," "cosmic," or healthier than 440 Hz has no demonstrated basis. No controlled study has shown a health effect from 432 Hz over standard tuning. Tune to whatever sounds nice to you; just don't expect it to heal anything.
