Who was Antoine Prioré?
Antoine Prioré was born in Trieste, Italy. Prioré received training in electrical engineering and was a radar technician for the Italian Navy. He was a prisoner of the German Nazi occupation of Bordeaux, France, until he was rescued by the French resistance in 1944.
It is said by Internet sources that in 1944 Priore noticed some oranges that had been left next to some electrical equipment. These oranges remained in a fresh state while others not near the electrical equipment became rotten and putrid.
Priore worked for 25 years in Bordeaux, and built a series of electromagnetic devices producing a strong magnetic field of 600 gauss or more for the purpose of treating cancer and disease. Electromagnetic therapy is characterised as pseudoscientific by most modern medical researchers.
His last device was funded by the French government with the help of one-time Prime Minister of France Jacques Chaban-Delmas. Prioré also built a large device for the purpose of treating people with cancer. Prioré reported to have treated a number of animals with cancer with his device, but it broke down before it could be applied to human patients.
