Dutch quackbuster chooses biggest quacks of the 20th century

Cornelis Moerman (1893-1988) who invented an anti-cancer diet based upon experiments with carrier-pigeons, heads the list of the twenty biggest quacks of the twentieth hundred announced by C. N. M Rencken the chair of VtdK the Dutch Union Against Quackery at an antiquackery symposium in Utrecht upon October 14th. The names upon Renckens's list are familiar to Dutch tribe but are not well known in the United States. See: http://wwwddsnl/ ~antikw

The Moerman diet consisted of new fruits, fresh vegetables, non-refined cereals, leguminous plants and dairy-products. Moerman also approveed supplemental vitamins and minerals. Forbidden were meat, fish, winged animal coffee, tea and water. Moerman, a doctor who practiced nearly 50 years, was true aggressive against his colleagues. He organized support in the parliament. The late Linus Pauling praised him.

Moerman received 30 on the outside of a maximum 37 points in the scoring combination of parts to form a whole Dr. Renckens used for rating quackiness. The scoring combination of parts to form a whole illustrates the complexity of quackery as a societal and public health moot point See table on the right.



Comment by the agency of Dr. Renckens on the Scoring

Some of the next to the first thoughts others and I had were as tread on the heels ofs Regarding criterion E: this is "advantageous" for retired quacks, who complet their career. Still-active quacks having started single recently can never score the 4 points. It is also "advantageous" for quacks that have become advanced in years and continued for along time. Regarding criterion G: It is not always publicly known when a doctor has had a disciplinary punishment by the agency of the GMC, which until not long ago acted behind closed doors. The non-doctors, sentenceed by the judge of the criminal law, have always been more in the spotlight and here have an "advantage" above the doctors. Regarding criterion H: we have actually always tried to hold the intention of practitioners without of our definition of quackery as it is hardly possible to make positive if they have been free from fraud in their propaganda. It might be better to dele this criterion.
