The radio wave Wizard John Kanzius

When John Kanzius a retired radio station owner and self taught radio and TV engineer developed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in 2004, he underwent the traditional chemotherapy sessions.

'I noticed young kids losing their smiles, losing their hair, and I said to myself: today's chemotherapy is cruel. There's gotta be a better way to cure cancer.' -John Kanzius

With his extensive background in radio engineering John set out to see if he could somehow apply this knowledge in the treatment of cancer. John built himself a radio frequency generator (RFG) and began to experiment with various frequencies to exploit what is known as the Skin Effect.

Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is the self propagation of electromagnetic waves through a space. The electromagnetic spectrum encompasses all electromagnetic waves and classifies specific waves forms by two methods. First by their Frequency measured by the oscillation of the particle and measured in Hertz from e.g. 30 Hz - 300 Hz. Secondly by their wavelength distance, which can be anything from the size of an atom to hundreds of thousand kilometres across. Microwaves have wave lengths around 10 cm’s and Radio waves are just above that with wavelengths from around 30cm to 10m. EMR has a peculiar property and that is when it comes into contact with a conductor its particles adhere to the conductor, excite the electrons within the conductor and thereby induce an electric current. This is the Skin Effect and it utilised by radio stations who broadcast EMR in the form of specific frequency registered radio waves that carry information in the form of amplitude, phase and frequency. These waves can travel very far depending on the power at which they where propagated initially and how much of the transmission is redirected by bouncing off the inner atmosphere of the earth. When these waves hit your antenna the Skin Effect is produced and because you have tuned in to a particular frequency you then hear a particular radio station.

John from experience knew that whilst radio waves induce a pronounced reaction in metals through the skin effect they have little or no reaction on the human body which is essentially a very bad conductor by comparison. Spurred by his and others suffering during chemotherapy John sought a way to apply this knowledge to his own situation. After experimenting with several metals John realised that the RFG could actually heat up and incinerate certain metals in an instant at the right frequencies. Faced with this empirical knowledge John saw that if he could achieve two things; One get the metal into the body and two make sure it goes to the cancer only, then his RFG might have a chance of actually curing cancer.

Enter Richard Smalley, Nanotechnology pioneer and creator of the Buckyball, who heard about John’s idea in 2005. Richard proposed to John that perhaps constructed carbon nanotubes might by what he was looking for. This sent John on the path of nanoparticles and eventually to the door of the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston (ACC). This is where he met Dr. Steven A. Curley, Professor in Surgical Oncology who enthusiastically embraced the idea and started a preliminary research programme investigating the use of the RFG combined with nanoparticles.

"It's beyond remarkable, he was just a private citizen who just came up with an idea and had the wherewithal and the tinkering ability to do it."- Dr. Steven A. Curley

All that glitters may not be gold but nonetheless for future cancer patients this may be the case of all that glitters might save your life. For through much experimentation John and Steven have had good results with nano gold particles. Gold is an excellent conductor and when reduced to a nanoparticle solution it seems to be attracted to the impurities within cancerous cells. At least this was the case for the tumour ridden rats given that solution, and when exposed to the RFG waves those gold nanoparticles literally vaporised and took the tumours with them. John’s results were favourable enough for the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center to purchase a patented Kanzius RF Machine (See actual machine version two in a Youtube Video) back in 2005. Interestingly the process was named and patented by John as RF-induced hyperthermia. Back to the ACC who bought their first unit in 2006 as part of the research programme and upcoming clinical trails using FDA approved nanoparticles.

“My jaw dropped when I heard how the experiments went, because they only ran these experiments on six animals and the results were perfect; one after the other” -John Kanzius

Though there still hangs the question of true targeting this is being worked on a furious pace. Steven is looking at a targeting molecule called Erbitux (aka: c255, Cetuximab), which is a chimerical monoclonal antibody that has the ability to bind to specific substances. If Erbitux can be modified to adhere to cancer cells and are themselves carrying the gold nano-particles. This would effectively target the cancer cells, and thus allow the RFG to vaporise them alone and leave the rest of the body unharmed. There are many obvious advantages to this treatment but the completely non-invasive process combined with targeting would seem to hold great promise. But it does not stop there for when John was demonstrating the RFG, a spectator noticed that an empty test tube near the machine formed a slight condensate and pointed this out to him.

This observation got John to thinking about the effect of the RFG waves upon water, and he duly experimented and found that water with a high concentration of salts reacted in a most strange manner. Every time John aimed the RFG at a test tube with saltwater he saw a spark above the water, curious he lit a wick above the test tube and turned on the RFG. Instantly a flame (see an actual Youtube Video demonstration of this), sprung up above the surface of the water, but died down when the RFG was turned off.

A water molecule consists of one atom of Oxygen and two of Hydrogen but is also very miscible, that is it mixes well with many other substances, and considered a virtual universal solvent in the amount of substances water can be mixed with to form one homogeneous solution. The sea is perhaps the best example of this property and contains a multitude of chemical compounds including high concentrations of common salts and minerals. What John surmised was the salt water in the test tube was the actual splitting of the covalent bond between oxygen and the hydrogen brothers. The resulting mix of oxygen and hydrogen gas released into the air from the salt water was then ignited by wick’s naked flame. Another effect was the more John increased the strength of the EFG waves the hotter the flame became, and he clocked it in at the limits of his machines capability at over 1,647 degrees centigrade. Now fair enough, the power required to push the EFG wave strength to induce this temperature was considerable and far exceeded the actual energy output of the flame. But it opens up a whole new realm of possibilities for the investigation of this effect.

One of those possibilities is fine tuning the EFG to be able to disrupt the very atomic bonds within an atom. If this can be achieved then we have the keys to unlocking the power within an atom (we all know how powerful the atom can be if it split aka Nuclear reactors and Nuclear Bombs), in a safer more controlled manner. This could be the beginning of a new possibly clean or at least cleaner than current energy sources. And that is worth independent investigation, research and experimentation on a global open platform. So I say well done Mr John Kanzius you have given the world hope in two major fields that are present issues of major concern, but lets all be careful and not experience a repeat of Tesla, Klein, Rife or Meyer. Together slowly, surely and steadily with crucial knowledge shared, we can perhaps stem the rising tides and change the world for the better.
