Human trials are expected to begin in a couple of years.

This I don't understand. I know the FDA must be careful but since gold has already been approved for use with humans and radio waves are harmless, why wait? Think of all the people who will die, especially children, while they fool around. Seems senseless to me.

Me too. In the old days, criminals could volunteer for medical experiments in exchange for time off their sentences. We ought to re-think that idea........

Radio waves can cause cancer and leukemia plus every kind of human trial takes time. It may also be a function of prioritizing treatments deemed most hopeful and getting funding. That said, testing and certification takes too long.

It's because of people like John Edwards.

Gold may be harmless. Radio waves may be harmless.
The COMBINATION may have some unknown effect.
That’s why they need to test. Also,
things like, what frequency? what power? how much gold? how long do you treat? How can you tell it’s working for sure?

Lot’s and lots of questions need to be answered before they can approve it.

Remember the PRIMARY rule of medicine is:

Primum non nocere

“First do no harm”....

The waiting makes no sense.
