An alternative method that could keep those bugs at bay!

Imagine, if you will, a simple battery-operated device capable of stopping the common cold and many other afflictions in their tracks. At the onset of a sore throat, say, the user would simply grasp a pair of electrodes, switch on, and soon become perfectly well again.

Sounds like an impossible medical pipedream, doesn’t it. Yet this is the claim for the Clark Virus Zapper, the invention of Dr Hulda Regehr Clark, versions of which are widely available from internet sources. Many users swear by its effectiveness.

The Zapper works by applying a pulsed voltage, usually from a 9V battery, to a pair of electrodes placed in contact with the user’s body, resulting in pulses of current through the body which are claimed to destroy the viruses and bacteria.

The EPE Virus Zapper (Mar ’02) version proved very popular with readers, although at the time of publication the author was not really convinced that it worked! However, after two bad colds in rapid succession, he felt “run down”, with a sore throat which refused to clear up. Eventually the notion of Zapping arose.

By the following morning the sore throat had gone and a steady return to full health ensued. On subsequent occasions the treatment was repeated at the apparent onset of a cold and appeared to stop it in its tracks. It is impossible to know whether the improvements would have occurred anyway, but each time a treatment is followed by positive results the likelihood of some connection is reinforced.
