Other Established Uses Of Colloidal Silver
An
amazing, yet still only partial list of more than 650 diseases that Colloidal
Silver has been used against include
(in
alphabetical order): Acne, AIDS, allergies, appendicitis, arthritis and athletes
foot, bladder infection, blood parasites, blood poisoning, boils, bubonic plagues
and burns; cancer, candida, canine parvovirus, chilblains, cholera, colitis, conjunctivitis
and cystitis; dandruff dermatitis, diabetes and dysentery; eczema and encephalitis;
fibrositis; gastritis and gonorrhea; hayfever and herpes; impetigo and indigestion;
keratitis, leprosy, leukemia, lupus, lymphangitis and lyme disease; malaria and
meningitis. Also, neurasthenia; parasitic infection, pleurisy, pneumonia, prostate
infection. pruritis ani, psoriasis and purulent ophtalmia; rheumatism, rhinitis
and ringworm; scarlet fever, septic conditions (eyes ears,mouth and throat), seborrhea,
septicemia, shingles, staph and strep infections, stomach flu and syphilis; thrush
(yeast infection), thyroid infections, tonsillitis, toxemia, trachoma, trench
foot and tuberculosis; ulcerated stomach; virus (all forms) ; warts and whooping
cough and yeast infection (females).
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SKIN PROBLEMS
While
Colloidal Silver is used as a preventative against viruses, bacteria and funguses
through daily oral use; Colloidal Silver has been also applied directly to open
wounds and sores to eliminate surface infections. Apart from its beneficial effect
Colloidal Silver does not sting or burn. Other antiseptics sting when applied
to a wound because they are killing the surrounding tissue cells as well as killing
the germs. But whilst Colloidal Silver kills the topical germs within six minutes,
it does not harm any surrounding tissues.
Acne:
In addition to omitting sugars,fats and chocolate from the diet, any person with
acne should wash and rinse the face thoroughly four times a day; and after each
rinsing, use a small amount of Colloidal Silver and massage it onto the problem
areas two to three times with a finger or a tiny piece of cotton or tissue. This
wash- rinse-massage activity may be continued throughout an acne breakout, or
better, as a continuous prevention through the teen years. This continuous habit
precludes breakouts, leaving the skin continuously clear. Most people find it
helpful to carry a 50ml or 200ml bottle of Colloidal Silver with them for availability
throughout the day.
Cuts
and abrasions: Apply Colloidal Silver directly to the open wound and onto any
dressing used. Colloidal Silver may be used as the only medication on the dressing,
or it may be used with another medication.
Eczema
and skin rash: Dab Colloidal Silver directly onto affected area, rubbing slightly.
Repeat often to keep the area moist. Bandage lightly, if desired, keeping the
bandage moist with Colloidal Silver. Change bandage daily. Warts: Cover the wart
with a small adhesive bandage saturated with a few drops of Colloidal Silver.
Keep the bandage moist. The wart should disappear within a few days. Large warts
may take a few days longer to disappear.
RECOMMENDATION FOR INTESTINAL PROBLEMS
Optimum
digestion: Put all, or a fraction of the recommended daily amount of Colloidal
Silver, as determined by titration, into the beverage of choice accompanying any
meal. As the food is digested, the presence of Colloidal Silver will keep the
food from putrefying in the digestive tract, killing any germs ingested with the
food, and leaving the food more useable. Also there will be no flatulence.
Parasitic
infections: To take an amount of Colloidal Silver, again as determined by titration
to preclude parasitic diseases caused by tiny, worm like animals that burrow through
a particular organ, or in some cases throughout the entire body. In every case,
these parasites reproduce by laying eggs and these eggs have the same characteristics
of the oxygen-metabolising enzyme as the single celled bacterium. These eggs cannot
hatch when there is sufficient Colloidal Silver in the surrounding body tissue.
They are killed within a short time and subsequently eliminated by the immune
system. Diarrhea diseases: A number of diseases such as cholera, canine parvovirus
or other diseases, where the pathogen resides mainly in the large intestine, can
be fatal. The fatality is mostly due to the dehydration of the body resulting
from severe and prolonged diarrhea and vomiting. The pathogen causing the problem
is active in the large intestine, the one place where Colloidal Silver when used
correctly will not penetrate. There are two different methods to overcome this
barrier.
The
first is to take a 200 ml glass dosed with Colloidal Silver together with three
or four big glasses of water on an empty stomach. This way the Colloidal Silver
will get into the large intestine and should within a short time take care of
the problem.
The
other method is by way of colonic irrigation the dose rate using a 50mg. Colloidal
Silver preparation is 15 ml per 200ml. of sterile water. This method in fact brings
the fastest relief from the disease, Medical literature reports that Cholera has
been cured with Colloidal Silver. Healing crisis: This is a condition wherein
the Colloidal Silver is killing the pathogens very rapidly. The body's five eliminatory
systems, the kidney, liver, skin, bowel and lungs become temporarily overloaded.
This especially is true in the case of overcoming AIDS with Colloidal Silver.
One may feel as though he or she has the flu. It is recommended to continue the
silver regimen, yet drink up to 4 liters of water a day, take five or six grams
of vitamin C and a high enema. Repeat for two or three days. Please note if the
healing crisis persists see your local practitioner for additional advise.
RECOMMENDATION FOR PURIFYING FOOD & WATER
Water
purification: Colloidal Silver is an excellent water purifier. Water stored with
one or two tablespoons of Colloidal Silver per 5 litres will be safe and sweet
tasting for a very long time. Water containing germ contaminants (not toxic chemicals)
can be made drinkable by adding two to three tablespoons of Colloidal Silver per
every 5 litres of water. The Silver whilst purifying the water is also beneficial
to the body, unlike the commercial tablets containing toxic chlorine bleach!
To
guard against such water-borne diseases such as dysentery, the following airlines
now use either silver water filters or a well known Hydrogen Peroxide/Colloidal
Silver combination. British Airways, Swiss Air, Scandinavian Airlines, Lufthansa,
Air France, Canadian Pacific Airlines, Alitalia, KLM, Japan Airlines and Pan Am.
The Swiss and Australian Government has approved either or both the silver water
filters or the hydrogen Peroxide/Colloidal Silver preparation which are now used
in homes offices and town water supplies.
After
testing 23 methods of purifying water, NASA selected a silver system for its space
shuttle. Home-canned foods: One-half teaspoon of Colloidal Silver per 1 litre
in home-canned foods precludes the growth of all bacteria, virus and fungus. As
the food is consumed, the presence of silver will aid in the digestion process
by not allowing fermentation of starches contained in the food, and will prevent
the putrefaction of protein or rancification of fats in the digestive tract. Neither
will there be a formation of gas in the bowel, nor food decay from toxins to diminish
a sense of well being.
Most
commercial food processing operations to date have elected to use preservatives
which, unlike Colloidal Silver, are toxic and poisonous to people. were these
commercial food processors to use Colloidal Silver instead, it would yield the
triple benefit mentioned above.
Questionable
refrigeration: In addition to keeping prepared foods cool and well sealed, add
about one table spoon of Colloidal Silver per 1 liter (volume) to picnic foods
containing mayonnaise, dairy products, or anything that has a potential for Salmonella
growth and poisoning. Stir in very well.
Leftovers
and Condiments: Mix about one quarter tablespoon of Colloidal Silver into each
container of mustard, ketchup or pickle relish. Mix one half teaspoon into items
that spoil more easily, i.e. mayonnaise, milk etc. They will store longer, remain
fresher and benefit digestion.
VETERINARY USES OF COLLOIDAL SILVER
The following conditions in animals,
birds and fish have been successfully treated with Colloidal Silver:
* Bacteria
and parasites in house pets, farm animals and birds.
* Parvovirus in dogs.
* Revival of belly-up goldfish.
* Scours and undulant fever in cattle
UNDERSTANDING
THE COLLOIDAL STATE
Most
chemistry text books have a chapter on the colloidal state, as if it were a special
case. Actually, the colloidal state is the only state for all living things.
Within
fluid water, the chemical elements of life occur in a flux of halves, or opposite
electrical pairs, always in motion and swapping these molecular halves in complex
chemical reactions that are the process of growth and repair. In this flux of
the body's fluids are the germ pathogens also, whose own molecular pairs interact
with those of the body as they strive to survive. They are all parasites that
attack and eat the body cells of the host person, dumping their waste into the
surrounding tissues and the bloodstream. When this fluid flux contains an electrically
charged ion or micro-particle of Colloidal Silver, it selects from among the tissue
cells of the body only those disease causing pathogens and suffocates them catalytically,
simply by being there; then, unaffected drift on, to repeat the process again
and again.
The
crystalline state is the condition of dry, dead matter. Most medications are in
the crystallized state. The body must first convert them to the colloidal state
before they can be used. There is some expense to the body in time, energy and
effectiveness. During this process some molecular pieces are left over, which
burden the body with their need to be eliminated. In the case of Colloidal Silver,
nothing is left!
CHARACTERISTICS OF COLLOIDAL SILVER
Colloidal
Silver will react chemically with many of the 92 natural elements and compounds.
While many of these compounds are toxic, pure silver is non-toxic. It acts only
catalytically with the enzyme, or chemical lung of single celled organisms. Pure
Silver won't dissolve in water, however if pure silver is by some process divided
into single atoms of micro-clusters of fewer than 15 atoms each, given a positive
electrical charge and attached to a molecule of simple protein, it will float
in and throughout the pure water indefinitely, creating a so called colloidal
suspension. The force of electric charge is stronger than the force of gravity,
thus the particle remains suspended. Much has been written and claimed by people
displaying a fair amount of ignorance of the workings of a colloidal substance
mainly with regard to the color of colloidal silver. True colloidal silver is
a colorless liquid because the micro-clusters of the silver are simply too small
for light to reflect back to the human eye ( the particular wave length of the
reflected light determines the color we perceive) Many manufacturers not being
able to make a true colloidal silver preparation resort to using food or other
coloring agents to give the liquid a yellow appearance because they somewhere
have read that colloidal silver should have a color to its liquid.
Color
will be noticed if one of the following conditions are present:
* The Silver
used is of a silver sulfide type and not very healthy (yellow, mainly used in
the ceramic industry)
* The Silver used is Silver Oxide (brownish, black
in color)
* The particles are too big in size
* Food or other coloring
dyes were used
* If the silver loses its colloidal state and precipitate
out of solution (mainly black) in this case the product will have lost its efficacy
and should be disposed of as contrary to some advise to shake the bottle will
not revert the silver particles to a colloidal state.
People
are best advised to stay clear of these products as they are in many cases of
dubious quality and most certainly have little or no beneficial effect. If you
have any doubt regarding the actual colloidal silver content, ask the vendor for
a Batch Sample Silver Analyses. Reputable manufacturers will have Health Department
approval for their manufacturing facilities and have their Colloidal Silver batches
analyzed and the result of same available for their customers.
CARE AND STORAGE OF COLLOIDAL SILVER
Keep
Colloidal Silver in the food storage, store it in glass containers only and away
from electrical appliances. Although glass breaks easier, glass is the only material
that will keep Colloidal Silver for any length of time. DO NOT accept Colloidal
Silver packaged in plastic as its shelf life is minimal and the silver particles
most likely will plate out on the surface and hence are no longer in suspension.
There is an inherent electric charge in the hydrocarbon molecule that will draw
the charged silver particle out of solution, bonding it to the side wall of the
plastic container! You may not see it but it's there all right. The preparation
is then unusable.
Do
not store Colloidal Silver in a refrigerator or freezer, as the long term electric
charge of the appliance can have the same effect on colloidal silver as does storing
it in a plastic container.
WHEN IT MAY BE THE ONLY THING AVAILABLE
Some
people believe there may be a time in the foreseeable future when food storage
may be the only means of antibiotic/disinfectant for any of us. Life would be
very different then, with many items unavailable, and a storage of Colloidal Silver
could be life saving.
A
very different condition in the future could be rampant diseases, plagues from
contamination's of the water and air through man made Bio-toxins of germ warfare
(as seen in the Strecker Memorandum video) Whatever the source, either invasion
or local error any military activity can result in a major outbreak of anthrax
or lesser causes resulting in Salmonella poisoning. Another extreme threat for
our immediate future is the emergence of so called Super Bugs. Because of the
current over-use of pharmaceutical antibiotics today, many virus and bacteria
organisms will be immune to the conventional medicines!
Colloidal
Silver is not only a way of prevention now, but may possible be our best choice
to store for future use.
MEDICAL STUDIES AND OTHER TESTING
Colloidal
Silver and illness: The author of body Electric Dr. R.Becker, noted in his studies
a correlation between low silver levels and illness: Those who had low silver
levels frequently were sick more often with colds, flu, fever and other illnesses.
He said he believes a silver deficiency is the reason for the improper functioning
of the immune system and that silver is critical for the destruction of bacteria
and viruses. Becker's experiments conclude that silver works on a wide range of
bacteria without any side effects and without any damage to the cells of the body.
Colloidal Silver and healing: Becker also states that the silver ion was doing
something more than killing disease causing organisms. It was, he observed, facilitating
major growth stimulation of injured tissues. When human fibroblast cells, which
are common throughout the body, were exposed to silver, they differentiated. That
is, they changed into an embryonic general cell, able to multiply at a great rate
and then change into the specialized cells of the organ or tissue that had been
injured. Even in patients over the age of 50 years, tissues healed as easily as
a child's tissues.
Colloidal
State and Cancer: Again Becker concluded that in the presence of silver ion, cancer
cells change back to normal cells regardless of their location in the body. He
concluded that the presence of silver ion regenerates tissues and eliminates cancerous
cells as well as eliminating other abnormal cells.
Dr.
Bjorn Nordstrom of Sweden's Karolinska Institute has used silver in his cancer
cure methods for many years. he records that he has successfully cured patients
who had been diagnosed by other doctors as terminally ill. Swimming pool water
purification: Silver is widely used to purify swimming pool water, and it does
not sting as does chlorine. A dramatic demonstration in Nebraska recently placed
250 litres of raw sewage into a pool containing no disinfectant. A standard measure
of fecal contamination is the count of Escheri coli ( E. coli) and organism found
in the human intestinal tract. The count soared to 7000 colony forming E coli
cells per milliliter of water. Subsequently the water was flushed through a silver
electrode array, which totally eliminated the E.coli within three hours. Follow-up
tests also shown the water to be completely free of other one-celled organisms.
Hydroponics testing: Tests in a hydroponics greenhouse showed that Colloidal Silver
is absorbed and used by the living plant as are any other minerals. Hydroponics
is an ideal gardening method having only one problem: Viruses, funguses and bacteria
tend to thrive in the plant nutrient fluid. Colloidal Silver is proven to kill
every one of the pathogens, and without any consequence to the nutrient medium
or to the delicate plants. In addition, the plants ingested the silver through
their roots, thus becoming a source of the silver minerals for human consumption.
Overdose
testing: In laboratory tests since 1985 researchers knew that overdose testing
needed to be performed. One lab technician involved in the project from the beginning,
volunteered himself as a guinea pig for the first project. He consumed 1 liter
of water dosed with a high concentration of Colloidal Silver for a period of several
weeks. The chemistry of his body fluids was monitored, as was his general well
being (colds flu headaches etc. ). He was especially observed for any change in
skin color to see if the technicians skin would develop a gray pallor of Argyria.
He had no change of color in his skin, felt more vigorous and alert and experienced
no aches or colds etc. Others in the laboratory repeated the test themselves finding
the same results.
UCLA
study: It is claimed that some years ago an independent research laboratory sent
to the University of California in Los Angeles a sample of Colloidal Silver to
be tested against AIDS and anthrax. UCLA undertook the tests and proved conclusively
that Colloidal Silver was highly effective in remedial applications against both
disease pathogens. The independent researcher has obtained the same results in
his own laboratory, and sought confirmation from UCLA. When the UCLA laboratory
director called to confirm those findings, the director of the independent laboratory
asked to have as the test results on a letter bearing the UCLA letterhead. However
he was advised that a payment of U$ 10,000 was required for this letter. The UCLA
lab report confirming the effectiveness remains unofficial.
