Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 117044 Ireland 07/14/2006 06:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Swiss Company to Provide Refund to U.S. Consumers Defendants Sold Worthless Products and Dietary Supplements to Cure Serious Diseases A Switzerland-based company and its United States counterpart have agreed to provide refunds to its U.S. citizens, as part of a settlement with the Federal Trade Commission. Dr. Clark Research Association, a California company and Dr. Clark Behandlungszentrum GMbH, doing business as Dr. Clark Zentrum, sold a variety of dietary supplements and devices that they alleged cured advanced and terminal cancers, AIDS, and other serious diseases. The FTC alleged that the defendants made unsubstantiated health or safety claims. In its complaint, the FTC alleged that the defendants advertised, among other things, that: the “Zapper” (sold as the “Super-Zapper Deluxe”) is a device that purportedly kills disease-causing parasites in the body with electricity and is effective in treating serious and chronic diseases like cancer and AIDS; the “Syncrometer” is a device that purportedly can detect substances within the body and diagnose diseases; “Dr. Clark's New 21 Day Program for Advanced Cancers,” a regimen that includes dietary supplements, purportedly cures advanced cases of cancer and, when used with the “Super-Zapper Deluxe,” renders surgery and chemotherapy unnecessary; and the “Complete Herbal Parasite Program” - also called the Herbal Parasite Cleanse - is effective to treat serious diseases when used with the Zapper. The FTC charged that the defendants did not have a reasonable basis to substantiate the claims made in the ads. To settle the FTC’s charges, the proposed final order prohibits the defendants from making unsubstantiated health or safety claims for any food, drug, dietary supplement, or device. The order also requires the defendants to notify U.S. consumers that they are entitled to full refunds. In addition, the settlement contains various recordkeeping provisions to assist the FTC in monitoring the defendants’ compliance. The Commission vote authorizing staff to file the settlement in federal district court was 5-0. It was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, Eastern Division, on November 18, 2004, and entered by the court on November 22, 2004. NOTE: This stipulated final judgment and order is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an admission by the defendant of a law violation. Stipulated final judgment and order have the force of law when signed by the judge. Copies of the stipulated final judgment and order are available from the FTC’s Web site at [link to www.ftc.gov] and also from the FTC’s Consumer Response Center, Room 130, 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20580.

The foundation of Hulda Clark's scam is the Induced Endorphin Effect. The Sense of "Well Being" is identical to the sense of well being when one is in pain and takes a dose of morphine. Electricity will induce the human body to release endorphins, these are the body's version of morphine, and like morphine and heroin, which both bind to the same receptor sites in the brain, the modulation of endorphin levels are a factor in addictions. |

Some even believe we are part of a secret cabal working against the best interests of the United States, characterizing my family and me as 'internationalists' and of conspiring with others around the world to build a more integrated global political and economic structure - one world, if you will. If that is the charge, I stand guilty, and I am proud of it." From page 405 of Rockefeller's 2002 book Memoirs.

One Lone Banana User ID: 117160 United States 07/14/2006 10:41 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You can build a zapper for about 15 bucks, and the schematics are online if you look. I built 2 of them about 4 years ago and they work fine. I don't use them for everything and don't claim they will cure cancer, but they do help the body fight disease and parasites, as I've stopped colds dead in their tracks. Lately I've been using oil of oregano to the same result. There are SO many 'alternative' healing methods that are cheap and effective. Unfortunately, those are 2 words the medical INDUSTRY doesn't like. Oh, and the zapper is 'powered' by a 9 volt battery- hardly an 'endorphin-producing' amout of power... |
