is difficult to write about people who are pseudo-scientific treatments. In the end, despair and lack of solutions of science, make seek any form of treatment that promises them the most likely not going to happen.
One of the strategies to get customers quacks is, to talk nice. In fact, one of the techniques, such as homeopathy, is that the "doctor" listen and listen, while a solution idea. Science is hard, not contemplation, and doctors are not going to promise something that will not comply, especially if it is cancer, AIDS or another disease that will result in the imminent death.
But sometimes victims of charlatans treatments are the same charlatans. Hulda Clark
She said that the cure for all ills was to eliminate viruses and bacteria, or pollutants that damage the immune system.
Hulda was very active in terms of quackery. She believed in Homegrafía and described as "the electronic analog of homeopathy." He also had a device which was called the zapper, which is not a device to provide zapes, but is a low frequency device that sends pulses through the body at specific frequencies. And his famous device, the Syncrometer, a bio-resonance device that is supposed to detect contaminants in substances.
She operated from Mexico, because in your country (USA) had legal problems, recommending treatments. Even the Mexican authorities, with limited regulations, ordered him to close his clinic and forbidden to work in Mexico - although there is evidence that never was and still operating from the clinic, no doubt there has been some corruption.
His books, The cure for AIDS , The cure for all diseases , The cure for advanced cancers sold much, I guess desperate people.
died of an illness that she said sorry. Multiple myeloma (bone cancer and blood). Apparently, your "technology" and the concoction was not enough to detect their own cancer. Ironic. Maggiore Christinne
Notable AIDS denialist, a miserable group that works to promote that HIV does not cause AIDS, going against tons of evidence against him.
His idealism was controversial, since, as HIV positive, publicly nursed her daughter, Eliza Jane, against the recommendations. Predictably, and sadly, his daughter contracted the disease, dying in September 2005. A horrible and unnecessary way to die.
On December 27, 2008, Maggiore U.S. dies from pneumonia, disseminated herpes infection and oral candidiasis, all these diseases can be related to HIV infection. Antiretrovirals could have lengthened his life, however, his group of naysayers argued that his pneumonia was not caused by the disease, but cold. Gary Null
This charlatan goes everywhere. Books, radio program, to dietary supplements in which it states that are healing, not just the body, but also the spirit.
has a product called Ultimate Power Meal which is a supplement with vitamin D. An overdose of vitamins can have very bad consequences in the body. A balanced diet is enough to get the required dose for the body. Null, a believer in the supplement, it was eating, until he fell ill of kidney. Sued its supplier, and putting my pride out the window, he consulted a doctor from the truth, both those he criticizes.
Pereque has very good details in this post .
There are more cases like this. Yoon-Hee Choi , the "preacher of happiness" commits suicide with her husband. Apparently not stand the illness that afflicted. O Kim Tinkham, a woman with breast cancer who chose to go for alternative medicine, and led the way for another charlatan Robert O. Young and that his cancer is so advanced that probably does not know in 2011. I recommend entries Orac in Respectful Insolence are long, but they are quite informative. Cases
ironic. But the irony is that, one would assume that these cases would destroy their movement, but sadly does not make them or tickle.
