Zapper FAQs


What is a zapper?  A zapper is defined by Dr. Hulda Clark as a battery operated DC pulse (positive offset) generator with an output amplitude of 5 to 10 volts (open circuit) and a frequency between 10 Hz and 500KHz (10 to 500,000 pulses per second), with a current limited output.  Note: Our Auto-Zap zapper puts out 2500 DC pulses per second with full 9 volt battery voltage, with a 1000 ohm current limiting impedance. 

What does a zapper do?  How does it work?  According to Dr. Clark's research and our personal experience, the tiny zapper current subtly energizes the bloodstream. This enables the body to "take out the trash," including  parasites large and small, bacteria and most viruses. It happens quickly, in about an hour. The white blood cells digest the dead invaders and they are flushed out via the kidneys. 

Is it safe?  Yes.  Zappers have been used by hundreds of thousands of people of all ages for a number of years, with no harm reported.  You may feel worse at the start as the parasites die off, but this is usually gone within a few days.  Dr. Clark recommends against using the zapper early in pregnancy.

Should I still take the herbal parasite cleanse if I have a Zapper?  You certainly may if you wish. The black walnut tincture is good for clearing your gut quickly. With the zapper alone it takes longer. If you have a serious concern, by all means take the herbs as well.

Are the kidney and liver cleanses safe if I'm zapping?  Yes.

What are your recommendations for the use of the Zapper?  Dr. Clark recommends daily use for the first month, with regular use after that.  Many people use it every other day or so for maintenance.  Our instructions cover other application hints, and we are as near as your phone or email if you have questions.

Can you give me a list of ailments/detoxifying/general health maintenance for which this machine is suitable?   See Dr. Hulda Clark's book, "The Cure for All Diseases," for a full listing.  Her basic conclusion is that the zapper is an excellent general tonic and prophylactic (preventative) tool.

Why "Easy Zap" is cheaper than the Supreme Zapper ?  Because you get what you pay for.  Easy Zap is a high quality and simple to use. simple to use and our Supreme zapper is a fully automatic, highly-efficient unit with 14 programs.  These products are for lifetime purchase and use.  They are not cheap disposables to be used for a while and then thrown away and purchased again.

We supply both types of units to give you a choice.  

Why does the Terminator zapper use 15 Hz?  Because it works better!  The lower frequency allows deeper penetration of the current due to the "skin effect."  Tests with a local naturopath have shown a marked increase of effectiveness against fungi, with no sacrifice in effectiveness on other critters. If you check the top of page 15 in Dr. Clark's books, you will see that the frequency range she gives for zapping is from 10Hz to 500,000 Hz.


Do your Zappers have negative pulses coming out?  No, none whatsoever. They fully meet Dr. Clark's specification for a "positively offset" DC signal.

What about AC adapters instead of batteries?   A friend wrote, "I am interested in your zapper, but I read another zapper info page and got confused. He claims that using an AC adaptor (and his power supply circuit) is better than using a battery. Help."

Dr. Clark is adamant about battery power for safety, and I agree. The higher output voltage is not an advantage either, according to Dr. Clark's research: she specifies 5 to 10 volts.  On page 15 of her book, The Cure for All Diseases, Dr. Clark states: 

"Subsequent testing showed it [the zapper effect] was not due to some unique design, or special wave form produced by the device. It was due to battery operation! Any positively offset frequency kills all bacteria, viruses and parasites simultaneously given sufficient voltage (5 to 10 volts), duration (seven minutes), and frequency (anything from 10 Hz to 500,000 Hz)."

What is the best time to zap ?   Any time is fine. I usually strap on a unit whenever I'm in front of the TV for any length of time or have an hour or so that I'm going to be sitting relatively still.  Zap with foot pads first thing in the morning or put the foot pads under a desk at your computer.  If I'm too busy during the day, I sometimes grab a zapper as I go to sleep.  The auto-timing units are great for that since it times the complete cycle for you, all you do is hit the start button. With the non-timed units make sure you use them for the recommended 7-20-7-20-7 minute cycle or use continuously at least an hour.  Find a way that works well for you.

Will they let me through airport security with a zapper?  We always take a zapper along on trips, and have never had a problem.  You might want to put the unit in your checked bags without a battery..

Can I use the zapper while taking antibiotics?  Yes, it does not conflict.


Do you give full instructions re frequencies used for each health problem?   The single frequency we use is all it takes.  According to Dr. Hulda Clark's latest research, the zapper stimulates the bloodstream and immune system in a subtle way, enabling your own body to "take out the trash", including parasites, bacteria and most viruses.  The pulses from the zapper do not electrocute anything, as they are a safe low-voltage and low-current signal.  

Does having metal anywhere in the body (such as crowns on one's teeth) affect the benefits of using the zapper?  No, as the zapper seems subtly to stimulate the bloodstream and immune system, according to Dr. Clark's research.

Are there any long-term side effects from long-term electrical current use on the body?  One hears of clusters of child cancers in areas close to major power lines, for instance.   None have been observed or reported, as far as I know.  Power line effects are due to high strength alternating magnetic fields, while the zapper uses very weak DC current pulses similar to natural nerve impulses. Zappers have been used successfully with kids as young as 1 month ( to deal with a nasty case of thrush in short order).

Can I use the zapper to make colloidal silver?  No.  Colloidal Silver makers are a different item.  For that use our Easy Sil or the Super Silver.
