Abstract: A method of enhancing the flavor of food by exposing the food to acoustic waves from a low frequency sonic transducer immersed in liquid is provided. The liquid may be the food itself and/or the food may be positioned within a range between about ¼ inch and about 20 feet from the liquid-containing container, and is preferably exposed to waves at a frequency ranging between about 1 Hertz to about 1000 Hertz, optimally 600 Hz for approximately one minute to 24 hours, optimally about 30 minutes. The acoustically-treated food is also provided.

Abstract: A method for treating medical disorders manifesting themselves in the blood, including diabetes and anemia, by exposing the sufferer to audible acoustic waves from a transducer immersed in liquid. The person is preferably placed between one and twenty feet from the wave source, and is preferably exposed to waves at a frequency of about 600 Hertz for approximately twenty five minutes. In one embodiment, the person sits in a jacuzzi-like container together with the transducer.

Abstract: This invention concerns a low frequency, high energy output electroacoustic transducer. It utilizes a vibratory unit formed of a stack of hollow ceramic cylinders about which is fitted a resilient metal sleeve. The metal sleeve is tensioned outwardly during assembly of the unit so that, upon relaxation, it will fit about the stack as tightly as possible. To further make the stack and sleeve integral, a bonding material is placed between the two. A gap in the sleeve serves as a cutting guide for gapping the stack. Air backing is used to further increase the energy output of the transducer.
