LEUKOCYTOSIS
"Leukocytosis (an increase in white blood cells)," Hertel
explained, "which cannot be accounted for by normal daily
deviations such as following the intake of food, is taken
seriously by haematologists. Leukocyte response is
especially sensitive to stress. They are often signs of
pathogenic effects on the living system, such as poisoning
and cell damage. The increase of leukocytes with the
microwaved foods was more pronounced than with all the other
variants.
It appears that these marked increases were caused entirely
by ingesting the microwaved substances." The cholesterol
markers were very interesting, Hertel stressed: "Common
scientific belief states that cholesterol values usually
alter slowly over longer periods of time. In this study, the
markers increased rapidly after the consumption of the
microwaved vegetables. However, with milk, the cholesterol
values remained the same and even decreased with the raw
milk significantly."
Hertel believes his study tends to confirm newer scientific
data that suggest cholesterol may rapidly increase in the
blood secondary to acute stress. "Also," he added, "blood
cholesterol levels are less influenced by cholesterol
content of food than by stress factors. Such stress-causing
factors can apparently consist of foods which contain
virtually no cholesterol-the microwaved vegetables."
It is plain to see that this individually financed and
conducted study has enough meat in it to make anyone with a
modicum of common sense sit up and take notice. Food from
the microwave oven caused abnormal changes, representing
stress, to occur in the blood of all the test individuals.
Biological individuality, a key variable that makes a
mockery of many allegedly scientific studies, was well
accounted for by the established baselines. So, how has the
brilliant world of modern technology, medicine and 'protect
the public' government reacted to this impressive effort?
A GAG ORDER
As soon as Hertel and Blanc announced their results, the
hammer of authority slammed down on them. A powerful trade
organization, the Swiss Association of Dealers for
Electroapparatuses for Households and Industry, known simply
as FEA, struck swiftly. They forced the President of the
Court of Seftigen, Kanton Bern, to issue a 'gag order'
against Hertel and Blanc.
The attack was so ferocious that Blanc quickly recanted his
support-but it was too late. He had already put into writing
his views on the validity of the studies where he concurred
with the opinion that microwaved food caused the blood
abnormalities. Hertel stood his ground, and today is
steadfastly demanding his rights to a trial. Preliminary
hearings on the matter have been appealed to higher courts,
and it's quite obvious the powers that be do not want a
'show trial' to erupt on this issue. In March 1993, the
court handed down this decision based upon the complaint of
the FEA:"Consideration.
1. Request from the plaintiff (FEA) to prohibit the
defendant (Dr Ing. Hans Hertel) from declaring that food
prepared in the microwave oven shall be dangerous to health
and lead to changes in the blood of consumers, giving
reference to pathologic troubles as also indicative for the
beginning of a cancerous process. The defendant shall be
prohibited from repeating such a statement in publications
and in public talks by punishment laid down in the law.
2. The jurisdiction of the judge is given according to law.
3. The active legitimacy of the plaintiff is given according
to the law.
4. The passive legitimacy of the defendant is given by the
fact that he is the author of the polemic [published study]
in question, especially since the present new and revised
law allows to exclude the necessity of a competitive
situation, therefore delinquents may also be persons who are
not co-competitors, but may damage the competing position of
others by mere declarations.[Apparently, Swiss corporations
have lobbied in a law that nails "delinquents" who disparage
products and might do damage to commerce by such remarks. So
far, the US Constitution still preserves freedom of the
press.
5. Considering the relevant situation it is referred to
three publications: the public renunciation [sic] of the
so-called co-author Professor Bernard Blanc, the expertise
of Professor Teuber [expert witness from the FEA] about the
above-mentioned publication, the opinion of the public
health authorities with regard to the present stage of
research with microwave ovens as well as to repeated
statements from the side of the defendant about the danger
of such ovens.
6. It is not considered of importance whether or not the
polemic of the defendant meets the approval of the public,
because all that is necessary is that a possibility exists
that such a statement could find approval with people not
being experts themselves. Also, advertising involving fear
is not allowed and is always disqualified by the law. The
necessity for a fast interference is in no case more advised
than in the processes of competition. Basically, the
defendant has the right to defend himself against such
accusations. This right, however, in cases of pressing
danger with regard to impairing the rights of the plaintiff
when this is requested.
Conclusion
On grounds of this pending request of the plaintiff, the
court arrives at the conclusion that because of special
presuppositions as in this case, a definite disadvantage for
the plaintiff does exist, which may not easily be repaired,
and therefore must be considered to be of immediate danger.
The case thus warrants the request of the plaintiff to be
justified, even without hearing the defendant.
Also, because it is not known when the defendant will bring
further statements into the public. The judge is also of the
opinion that because the publications are made up to appear
as scientific, and therefore especially reliable-looking,
they may cause additional bad disadvantages. It must be
added that there does obviously not exist a just reason for
this publication because there is no public interest for
pseudo-scientific unproved declarations. Finally, these
ordered measures do not prove to be disproportionate.
he defendant is prohibited, under punishment of up to
F5,000, or up to one year in prison, to declare that food
prepared in microwave ovens is dangerous to health and leads
to pathologic troubles as also indicative for the beginning
of a cancerous process. The plaintiff pays the costs.
(Signed) President of the Court of Seftigen Kraemer." If you
cannot imagine this kind of decision coming from a court in
the United States, you have not been paying attention to the
advances of administrative law.
Hertel defied the court and has loudly demanded a fair
hearing on the truth of his claims. The court has continued
to delay, dodge, appeal and avoid any media-catching
confrontation. As of this writing, Hans is still waiting for
a hearing with media coverage-and he's still talking and
publishing his findings. "They have not been able to
intimidate me into silence, and I will not accept their
conditions," Hertel declared.
"I have appeared at large seminars in Germany, and the study
results have been well-received. Also, I think the
authorities are aware that scientists at Ciba-Geigy [the
world's largest pharmaceutical company, headquartered in
Switzerland] have vowed to support me in court." As those
powerful special interests in Switzerland who desire to sell
microwave ovens by the millions continued to suppress open
debate on this vital issue for modern civilisation, new
microwave developments blossomed in the United States.
