Guest guest Posted March 3, 2005 Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 ============================================================ I'll have to put in my 4 cents worth about these zappers. What's wrong with the herbal parasitic cleanes anyway? These zappers remind me too much of allopathic medical practices -- if it's related to self-punishment, self-flagellation, then it must be good? This idea of practicing extreme asceticism and self-abuse to gain the blessings of good health is a false hope, although I can understand the sentiment. But back to the zappers -- Many moons ago, ECT/electro-convulsive therapy or shock treatments were quite common. They've been making a comeback the last ~~10 years, and I wonder if anyone even remembers why the practice was discontinued in the first place? The latest variation on this theme involves inserting two electodes into a specific area of the brain which is unusually active in people suffering from severe depression. These electrodes are then hooked up to a 9-volt battery that's implanted under the collarbone with a wire running to the battery just under the skin. No doubt this area of the brain is zapped/killed -- but is this kind of abuse really productive, or some kind of instinct run amok? Many years ago, soon before computers became common, I had an excess of energy and time and inspiration and full access to an old medical school library that had been gathering volumes and dust for the past 100 years. That made for far more interesting reading on medical information than after everything was put on computers and indexed back to 1966. I also suspect a lot of censoring went into compiling all this information into databases available for search by the general public. Anyway, in this endeavor I encountered a massive study that was done as a follow-up to patients who'd been given electrical zappers to the brain, eg., shock treatment. This report was dated sometime during the early 1950s, and it had nothing to precede it and nothing that followed it. It was reported and then dropped like a hot potato. But the practice of ECT was also dropped. This shocking information was that 50% of the children born to women who had been given ECT developed epilepsy. This was true, even if the mother had ECT many years before her children were born. This is one more example of how nature refused to be outwitted and a price was paid, good intentions aside.

What's > wrong with the herbal parasitic cleanes anyway? There is nothing wrong with herbal parasite cleanses. I have used them successfully several times. However, I believe the Zapper goes beyond the cleanses and gets viruses, bacterias and parasites that normal cleansing does not get. As far as being an Allopathic approach to a problem, I disagree with that. Dr. Hulda , the inventor of the Zapper has long been a propnent of Alternative Medicine..she also suggest herbal cleanses. The Zapper can not be compared to Electic Shock treatments or any self punishing device. I am NOT a victim type at all. I just try to keep an open mind. I am 75 years old and healthy. How old are you? Anne Anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
