If you cruise the Internet as I do, you have noticed that
testimonials on websites have disappeared.
I have always liked reading testimonials. Rarely try anything
talked about. But I miss them from the websites.
"Government
regulators consider testimonials to be misleading and deceptive and recommend
you consult a medical doctor for the treatment of all diseases." Our
government in the interest of "protecting" you from trying alternative therapies
has forced the people selling alternative therapies to remove testimonials of
people who have used their equipment to improve their health. All that is left
is "It is nice equipment".
This website has the testimonials of people who have used
electrical home
remedies. I like these devices. I have personally tried several of them. I
especially like the Scenar. I've used it on a stiff neck, back muscle
pain, and hip pain with much success. I built a number of
zappers a few
years ago for about $22 with parts from Radio Shack. My daughter had mono and I
gave her the zapper and she got an intravenous "vitamin cocktail" from the
doctor. The mono was gone in two days. I have a Terminator
zapper that I really like because it
is so easy to use. I also bought Bob
Beck's equipment and am experimenting with it.
You do have the right to try an alternative therapy on yourself.
You don't
have the right to use it on others.
These testimonials are ones I have gathered. Many have
come from a few websites that are dead.
NOTE: ALL NAMES HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED. ALL LINKS TO WEBSITES
THAT THESE TESTIMONIALS CAME FROM HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED. THE NAMES OF THE
SPECIFIC PRODUCTS HAS BEEN ELIMINATED. YOU CANNOT CONTACT
ANYONE WHO WROTE A TESTIMONIAL, NOR CAN I.
I do
not sell anything.
An example of a Federal Trade Commission letter sent
to an owner of a website that had testimonials on it:
You are responsible for all claims, whether express or
implied, that are made on your web site. Please note that consumer testimonials
constitute claims that your product will provide the advertised benefit, and
therefore such testimonials also must be supported by competent and reliable
scientific evidence. We strongly urge you to review all claims on your web site
immediately, and to delete or revise those claims as necessary to comply with
the law.
You also should be aware, if you are marketing a dietary
supplement, that FDA law prohibits any labeling claims that a dietary supplement
is intended to prevent, mitigate, treat, or cure cancer or any other disease
under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as amended by the Dietary
Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994. Such claims would cause the product
to be a drug and would require that the product comply with the applicable drug
requirements, including that the product be submitted for FDA approval as a new
drug before it can be marketed.
The FTC staff strongly urges you to review the claims you are
making for ___. If your web site includes any express or implied claim
about the benefit of any _____ product for cancer or other diseases that is not
substantiated by competent and reliable scientific evidence, or is otherwise
false or deceptive, you must discontinue these claims immediately.
