ZOETRON

Hopelijk bestaat de Zoetron niet meer, maar gezondheids-ondernemers kunnen erg vasthoudend zijn als er ernstig zieken zijn die van hun geld kunnen worden afgeholpen.

http://www.igz.nl/downloads  "De zorgverlening aan S.M." meldt:
Dit betrof de zogenaamde ‘cell specific cancer therapy’ (CSCT)
of Zoetron-therapie, die in een kliniek te Yverdon werd toegepast. Informatie daarover verkreeg mevrouw M. van een patiënt die er ervaring mee had en van de arts die hem daarbij begeleid heeft, mevrouw J. H.-H., oud-huisarts en arts voor natuurgeneeskunde.

Zoetron therapy used a magnetic device that the promoters claimed would "selectively impact the life cycle of cancerous cells without harming the normal cells in any way." The treatment, origically called Cell Specific Cancer Therapy (CSCT), was marketed by CSCT, Ltd., in London, England, and CSCT, Inc., in Canada, originally in Kitchener, Ontario, and later in Penticon, British Columbia. The treatment facility opened in 1996 [1] in Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic) and was moved to Tijuana, Mexico, in 1998. The treatment originally cost $20,000 but was lowered to $15,000 in 1998.
. . .
Its promoters claimed that the device detected vibrational differences between cancer cells and normal cells and killed cancer cells by sending back their frequency, which would cause them to rupture and die [1].
. .
The energy used in the Zoetron device to disrupt the life cycle of the cancerous cells and cause cell death, is magnetic energy from a specially contrived array of both permanent and electromagnets. The complex magnetic field so created and to which the patient is exposed is an extremely active field of phased incoherence, but one which, even so, operates at a very low gauss level. Whereas a modern Magnetic Resonance Imaging device (such as are now in widespread use) may have a magnetic field with a gauss (measure of intensity) in excess of 10,000 gauss, the Zoetron device normally operates at a maximum field intensity of less than 100 gauss .

Authorities estimate that the company cheated unsuspecting and often desperate cancer patients out of $12.75 million from August 1996 to February 2003. Some 37 of the victims of the scam were Canadian. Many of those victimized have since died.

VERBOD op ZOETRON:

A Canadian company accused of peddling a bogus cancer cure has agreed to settle charges filed by the Federal Trade Commission. CSCT, Inc. charged patients as much as $20,000 for its treatments which supposedly killed cancer cells with an electromagnetic device.
.
Under the settlement CSCT and its owners will be barred from marketing their treatment anywhere in the U.S. They're also prohibited from making false claims about any other food, drug or medical device.

Dus wordt uitgeweken om buiten het bereik van de wet te komen.
