When Something New And Supposedly Better Comes Along, We Leave The Old Things Behind...Until WE Find That The Old Things Were Really Better!

Today, due to hundreds of thousands of people traveling every day in airplanes, infectious diseases can spread around the world overnight. A woman infected with a new, powerful virus gets on an airplane in southeast Asia. She sits in a front row, aisle seat. Flu viruses, as well as many infectious bacteria, travel in the air--on your breath. Almost everyone getting on the plane walks past her and is exposed. The airplane lands in California, while others board airplanes to other parts of the country. Many of them will be infected and may pass the germs on to others on the next plane or in crowded airports, or wherever they go.

Antibiotics Have No Effect On Viruses

As you can see, that one woman could cause an epidemic. In 1918, a super strong flu virus killed 20 million people in America and Europe before a vaccine was developed. Most were children or adults with weakened immune systems. Sailors on merchant ships from Asia were suspected of bringing the virus to the United States and Europe. Vaccines will protect you from known flu bugs, but there is less protection if you are already infected; only the strength of your immune system can eventually destroy the virus. Modern antibiotics only kill some bacteria and fungi not viruses, such as flu and common cold viruses.

Cruise Ship Danger

Every day in our crowded cities, most of us are exposed to infectious bacteria, viruses and fungi--on our jobs, in stores and in shopping malls, in schools, on trains, buses, and airplanes. If your immune system is strong, you may fight off the bugs, but if your system is slightly weak at the moment of exposure, you're in trouble. Recently, a cruise ship left Los Angeles for a trip to the Mexican resort, Cabo San Lucas. It never arrived in Cabo. In less than two days out to sea, over half of the passengers (over 400) came down with an unidentified ailment, so the captain turned the ship around and went back to Los Angeles. One man died.

Antibiotics Are Not Working Anymore

In 1969, the Surgeon General of the United States declared, "We can close the book on infectious diseases caused by bacteria." Little did he know that those bacteria were apparently smarter than the chemists who created the antibiotics. Most disease causing bacteria are or have developed resistance or immunity to antibiotics through normal evolutionary processes.

Third World Diseases in U.S.

Now, worldwide, the occurrence of infectious diseases is rising dramatically not just in Third World countries, but here in the good old U.S. Medical scientists are getting very worried that we won't find new chemicals to fight them. For example, there are several tuberculosis (TB) strains that are resistant to all antibiotics. Last year in Cincinnati, there was an 838% increase (over the yearly average) in whooping cough among children who had been vaccinated.

Hospitals Unsafe

Even Hospitals have become unsafe because staphylococcus (staph) and streptococcus (strep) flourish in that environment. They've become resistant to every antibiotic except one vancomycin. Infectious disease specialist, Dr. Thomas Beam told Newsweek magazine, "We know at some point staph and strep will become resistant to vancomycin." We've become complacent about diseases such as staph and strep and should be reminded that before antibiotics were available almost 80% of hospital patients that contracted those diseases died. The Muppets creator, Jim Henson, was killed in 1990 by strep A, a very dangerous form of bacteria.

Misuse Of Antibiotics By Doctors

Medical scientists say that some doctors hand out antibiotics like candy to people regardless of whether they will help the person or not. Some prescribe them for preventing colds. Antibiotics absolutely will not prevent a cold. Approximately one fifth of the antibiotic prescriptions are unnecessary or won't work. Dr. Steve Waterman, chief of epidemiology at the California Department of Health Services told reporters, "It's sloppy medical practice, but it's very common." Dr. Peter Duesberg, a professor of molecular and cell biology at University of California reported in his book, Inventing the AIDS Virus, that sexually active homosexuals who took antibiotics as preventives of sexually transmitted diseases actually destroyed their immune systems and became afflicted with the typical AIDS type diseases.

The Forgotten Natural Antibiotic

You'll probably be surprised to learn that prior to World War II, the most powerful antibiotic, antibacterial and anti fungal substance was silver! Yes, the same kind of silver that your jewelry or silverware is made from, but it was ground up into small particles and suspended in a fluid. It is called colloidal silver (CS). It was doctors' most useful potion because it killed over 650 different illness causing organisms bacteria, viruses and fungi. But, there were problems with it.

Only The Wealthy Could Afford It

Back then, CS cost about $ 400 per treatment (in today's dollars) making it very expensive. Health insurance was practically nonexistent, so only the wealthy could afford it. Also, no one could grind up the silver into small enough particles that would be absorbed by the stomach, so it had to be injected by needle, making it inconvenient to use at home, as well as painful. After a month or so sitting in the bottle, the silver particles would stick and clump together making it unusable.

The Moldy Antibiotic

In 1928, Dr. Alexander Fleming discovered that Penicillin, taken from a green mold, could kill certain bacteria. However, chemists couldn't grow enough of the mold to make it commercially viable. During WW II, they found a way to make it synthetically out of chemicals, and penicillin was born. It became the rage among doctors, much to the delight of the drug companies.

Drug Companies Hate Natural Remedies

A new era began in medicine with patented synthetic chemicals making the drug companies very wealthy. As pointed out in the recent best-selling book, Amazing Medicines The Drug Companies Don't Want You To Discover, major drug companies won't sell a medicine they can't patent, and anything that occurs in nature can't be patented. So, good-bye silver, and hello to a stream of chemical antibiotics. From the beginning, the supposedly wonderful penicillin had problems. Many people were allergic to it and suffered from shock, rashes, hives and some died. That's why doctors still ask, " Are you allergic to penicillin?" Since the 1940's, chemists have created numerous penicillin type antibiotics. The first reason was to avoid the allergy problems, and the other was because each type only killed certain organisms. In other works, you can't use the same antibiotic to kill a throat infection on someone who has a skin infection.

The Forgotten Antibiotic

In the meantime, technology has come to the rescue of the forgotten colloidal silver (CS). Instead of grinding up the silver into hard to use large particles like they did in the pre-war period, scientists found they could use electricity to break down the particles to as small as 1/10,000th of an inch much smaller than you can see with the naked eye. Also, the electricity gave the tiny particle identical electric charges, which causes them to repel each other. This means no more clumping, and a shelf life of up to five years. This new silver is called "Electrically Generated Colloidal Silver'" or EGCS. EGCS can now be taken orally or sprayed on a wound, burn or rash, and no shots are necessary. Also, the dosage costs dropped from $ 400 to as little as 25 cents each.

Tiny Bit Works Better Than A Lot

Scientists found that using a tiny bit of EGCS worked better than the large amounts given in the early part of the century. Silver has been known for its health values since before the time of Julius Caesar. The Greeks lined water and wine urns with silver to kill bacteria. The Romans discovered that a poultice of silver helped heal burns, cuts and sores.

Doctors Advised Wealthy to Eat With Silver

Did you know that silverware became popular almost 1,900 years ago for health reasons? Physicians advised their wealthy patients to only eat with silver if they wanted to stay healthy. During the 14th century, about 25% of the people in Europe died from the bubonic plague, which swept through the continent. Wealthy people gave their children silver spoons to suck on to forestall the plague.

Healthiest To Be Born With Spoon In Their Mouth

As you probably realize now, that's where the expression, "Born with a silver spoon in your mouth" comes from. Because so few of the wealthy died from the plague, silverware and silver pacifiers became popular. Silver pacifiers are still to babies in many countries. In the United States, people have forgotten that heritage and use plastic pacifiers today. If people are wise, they will return to using silver because babies are very susceptible to all kinds of bacteria, viruses and fungi.

Silver Dollars In Milk

American settlers knew the value of silver both as wealth and for their health. They often put silver dollars in milk to deter its spoilage in warm weather. In 1884, Dr. K, S. Crede, a German obstetrician, discovered that a mild silver solution, put into a baby's eyes at birth, dramatically reduced eye infection, which are common in babies.

Law Says All Babies Must Get Silver

Shortly thereafter, laws were created in the United States, Canada, Norway and Denmark requiring all physicians and hospitals to put a silver solution in the eyes of every baby born in their care. It is still done today in most countries, and undoubtedly, you experienced it as a baby.

Rub Silver In Wound

Chinese folklore advised families to always have a silver item in their houses in case someone was bitten by a rabid dog. They were instructed to rub the silver into the wound. Dr. Jerome Alexander, in his book, Colloid Chemistry, said that he tested the concept and found that silver ions rubbed off the metal and did, indeed, destroy harmful bacteria. History texts shows that serious medical study of CS began in the late 1880's with it being used to treat typhoid and anthrax bacterial infections successfully.

Kills Any Dangerous Microbe

Dr. Henry Crookes is credited for the wide use of silver in the early 1900s. He used it for subduing gonorrhea, tuberculosis, and staphylococcus, as well as many other infectious organisms. His scientific reports concluded that there wasn't any known microbe that could not be killed in the laboratory with CS within six minutes. In 1915, Dr. A. Leggeroe found that CS was not only good for protecting babies' eyes, but it worked for adults as well. He said that it was "the most useful ophthalmic remedy" he had ever encountered for eye infection. He claimed there were never any side effects or visual impairment as a result of using CS.

Used For Prostatitis

Dr. Malcom Morris reported in 1917 that CS was a powerful remedy for inflamed and enlarged prostates or infected bladders. He also found that infected hemorrhoids responded will to the substance. Later, he proved it was useful in ameliorating eczema. By 1925, many dairy farms and cattle and sheep ranches were substantial in size. Often infections or viruses wiped out an entire herd. The best weapon veterinarians had was CS, and they used it extensively with great success.

Doubled White Blood Cells

Colloidal silver not only killed bacteria, viruses and bacillus toxins, it bolstered the immune system, according to studies published in a 1916 issue of Transactions of the American Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologist. The author reported that CS actually doubled the white blood cell counts--our bodies' major germ fighters.

Colds Retreat Faster

Dr. J. Mark Hovel reported in the British Medical Journal that CS was especially useful in controlling viruses. His studies covered shingles, pyorrhea, whooping cough, throat and nasal infections. The common cold retreated quickly in the presence of CS, according to his report. Medical research on silver dropped by the wayside during the 40s and 50s due to the popularity of penicillin type drugs. But, in 1963, doctors found that CS was best for destroying yeast infections and fungi.

New Breakthrough

A new surge of research began in 1970 when Dr. Carl Moyer, chairman of the Washington University Department of Surgery and his chief biochemists, Dr. L. Bretano and Dr. H. Margarf, received a federal grant to find better treatments for burn victims. Most of the antiseptics used for this purpose created more severe problems due to their poisonous nature. Antibiotics worked only for a while before bacteria on the burnt skin developed an immunity to the drugs. In addition, no antibiotic or antiseptic killed the most powerful bacteria known a Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Killed The Most Powerful Bacteria

After reading some old medical research from the early 1900s, Dr. Margarf decided to try CS. He found that just a tiny amount of silver killed the Pseudomonas bacteria and allowed the burnt tissue to heal. One of the problems found with silver in the early 1900s was that large amounts colored the skin a blue-gray, which was called "argyria." This was due to the huge amounts doctors used, and because the particle size was much too large from hands grinding the silver.

Germs Don't Become Immune To Silver

Using a very small amount of ultra fine particles of silver, Dr Bretano found it was the best burn antiseptic, and no matter how often it was used, it did not discolor the skin. Also, the bacteria did not develop an immunity to the silver like they did to antibiotics, according to the results published in the journal, Surgical Forum. Dr. Moyer's team is responsible for developing the ultra fine, low dose, electrically generated colloidal silver (EGCS) being used today.

10 to 100 Times More Useful Than Drugs

Clinical researchers at the VA hospital in Syracuse, New York, confirmed that the new EGCS was 10 to 100 times stronger than the drugs formerly used for killing bacteria. Fungi can create major aggravation in life when they infect finger and toenails, skin, scalp and feet. The most common one is athlete's foot. In 1976, Dr. T. J. Berger found that EGCS could stop fungi, such as athlete's foot, in its tracks.

Great For Stuffy Or Runny Noses

In 1977, Dr. William Foye showed that EGCS was great for dealing with tonsillitis, rhinitis (stuffy or runny nose), and conjunctivitis (pink eye and related eye infections.) Later, researchers used EGCS to kill syphilis and malaria bacteria. Doctors in hospitals soothed varicose ulcers and bedsores with EGCS.

Our Mightiest Germ Fighter

In 1978, Dr. Jim Powell wrote an article in Science Digest entitled, "Our Mightiest Germ Fighter," pointing out how much more powerful EGCS was over antibiotics. The greatest progress EGCS has made in the last decade is the result of a prominent doctor getting a seemingly incurable disease. That doctor, Paul Farber, is one of the most educated medical scientists in the country holding seven degrees in various health fields.

Famous Doctor Paralyzed

In 1992 after a hiking trip in Texas, Dr. Farber found he couldn't get out of bed. He was paralyzed from the chest down. Also, he was in excruciating pain with many of his joints severely swollen. Overnight, The middle-aged doctor was like a crippled 90-year-old who had been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for decades. His condition puzzled specialist after specialist. Their guesses ranged from multiple sclerosis to the rare Guillain-Barre' syndrome a multiple neuritis type of affliction.

Discovers Tick

Confined to his bed only able to move his arms and head, one day Dr. Farber felt a tiny lump in the scalp above his forehead. He suspected a tick was imbedded there. He careful removed the tick and sent it to Dr. Thomas Craig, a professor of veterinary medicine at Texas A & M University. After examining the tick, Dr Craig suggested that Dr, Farber had Lyme Disease, which is caused by this type of tick.

Dangerous Lyme Disease

Blood tests confirmed it was the terrible Lyme Disease (LD), which is named after a small town in Connecticut where an outbreak crippled over 50 people in 1972. Antibiotics, such as penicillin and Rocephin, are the first line of defense against LD, but they are not cures because they only repress the disease.

Rollercoaster Illness

Continuous use of the antibiotics caused a severe form of yeast infection. The drugs have to be stopped until the yeast infection clears up, but shortly after the drugs are withdrawn, the horrible LD symptoms return, and the whole process starts over again a not very enjoyable rollercoaster ride. During the high times of his rollercoaster ride, Dr. Farber searched medical literature for something that could possibly destroy the awful bacteria that was making his life so miserable.

Dead Sea Scrolls of Medicine

Dr. Farber found what he calls "the Dead Sea Scrolls of Medicine" in early 1900s research on colloidal silver. Dr. Crookes' comments about it killing any microbe in six minutes got his attention. Then he found doctors Moyer, Bretano and Margarf's research and development of EGCS.

EGCS Stops LD

He immediately began taking EGCS. The results were nothing short of spectacular. Within a short time, tests at the Neurological Department of Parkland Hospital in Texas showed that the bacteria was no longer in his body. Clinical research has since shown that the LD bacteria simply hides from the antibiotics; however, recent testing at Fox Chase Cancer Center in Philadelphia proved that EGCS does destroy the LD bacteria. Because EGCS literally saved his life, Dr. Farber has devoted the last few years experimenting with its powerful effects. He wrote a book entitled, The Micro Silver Bullet, and regularly treats patients at his clinic with silver.

Gulf War Syndrome

One of the most interesting cases was a man named Jack, who worked for a private construction company in Kuwait during the Gulf War. Shortly after returning to the United States, Jack developed aching joints, insomnia, persistent high fevers, loss of balance and a total lack of energy, He couldn't work, and even the famous Mayo Clinic couldn't determine the cause of his affliction.

Nothing Helped

He saw specialist after specialist, from heart to cancer, but none could pinpoint the cause of his problems. Typical of cut-happy surgeons, they took out his gallbladder, and then they took his spleen. Nothing helped.

EGCS Solved Problems

Finally, Jack heard about Dr. Farber and visited him. The doctor put Jack on EGCS for eight weeks. Soon, Jack was back working ten hours a day, six days a week like nothing had ever happened.

Eye Infection Stops In One Day

In his book, Dr Farber tells about a patient named Yvonne, who had a persistent eye infection that wouldn't go away. Her ophthalmologist gave her antibiotic eye drops, which would help for about two weeks, and then the infection would return again. After going through this up and down routine several times, Yvonne visited Dr. Farber. He told her that it used to be standard practice to put a silver solution in a baby's eyes at birth to ward off eye infections. Yvonne began using EGCS as eye drops, and within 24 hours, her infection was gone and hasn't returned since.

Acne Didn't Stop Wedding

Dr. Farber also tells about a woman who suffered from cystic acne since she was 11. Dermatologists had given her many antibiotics and Accutane, but nothing worked for very long. At 24, she was planning to get married and wanted to look good for her wedding. She visited Dr. Farber, who gave her ECGS an month before the big day. Within three weeks, the acne had totally cleared up.

Psoriasis And Joint Pain

Psoriasis is another skin disorder that doctors find most difficult to subdue because it just seems to come back regularly with annoying itching and scaly skin. A patient of Dr. Farber's named Susan from Glassport, Pennsylvania, suffered from psoriasis and joint pain called fibromyalgia. Doctors had tried everything from antibiotics to methotrexate (a form of chemotherapy) with no luck. In fact, most of the drugs made Susan feel worse. After three months of using EGCS, the joint pain was completely gone, and 90% of her psoriasis symptoms had disappeared.

Asthma Relieved

A lady named Patrice from West Milfin, Pennsylvania, read Dr. Farber's book and decided to try EGCS on her asthma problem. At the time, she was enrolled in a special program at the medical research center of University of Pittsburgh where new asthma remedies were being tested. After two weeks of taking EGCS, her asthma symptoms cleared up. She dutifully called the university to cancel her involvement, and the doctor asked her why. When she told them about EGCS, he showed no interest in it, and quickly excused himself from the phone call. Perhaps they were worried about losing their drug company grant for testing its medicines.

Silver And Electricity Knots Broken Bones

Dr. Robert O. Becker, an orthopedic surgeon and a medical professor at both State University of New York and Louisiana State University, is the author of two popular-selling books, Body Electric and Cross Currents. He discovered that a silver impregnated nylon dressing attached to a small battery would cause previously untreatable osteomyelitis and bones that refuse to knit to heal quickly. This combination of silver and tiny electric currents worked so well that today, when broken bones refuse to knit, it is standard practice to use Dr. Becker's electrified silver process.

Virus Attacks Heart

Dr. Alex Duarte reported a personal experience in his newsletter, Healing Breakthroughs. His daughter was in a near fatal auto accident that punctured her heart when she was 18. An artificial ring had to be put around one of her heart valves to save her. She knew that some time in the future, she would have to undergo surgery to replace the ring. Years later while waiting for surgery, her heart muscle was attacked by the Coxsackie virus. Doctors were able to subdue the virus and perform the surgery, but six months later, her heart became re-infected with the virus. In the meantime, Dr. Duarte had learned about EGCS from Dr. Farber and administered EGCS to his daughter to ward off the virus. Within a month's time, she recovered and is healthier than ever before.

Is EGCS Safe?

Dr. John Barltrop of the University of Toronto conducted toxicity tests on rats giving them enormous amounts of EGCS. He found there were absolutely no toxic effects. The amount he gave the rats (1cc of a solution of 300,000 ppm of EGCS) was equivalent to 7,500 times the amount Dr. Farber and other scientists found was the proper dose (40ppm).

Poison Control Center Says It Is Harmless

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Poison Control Center, EGCS is considered harmless. Dr. Samuel Etris, a senior consultant at the Silver Institute, says there has never been any allergenic, toxic or cancerous reactions to silver. The government's Center for Disease Control confirmed that fact in 1995.

Live Near A Silver Mine

At one time, the soil in many parts of the country contained minute silver particles. These particles were extracted by plants and passed on to humans and animals. In 1966, Dr. I H. Tipton reported in the journal, Health Physics, that the ideal daily intake of silver was between 50 mcg (micrograms) and 100 mcg. It's an important trace mineral used by the body like chromium and selenium. Unfortunately, commercial fertilizers used by farms today only put nitrogen, phosphate and potash into the soil--no trace minerals. The only place you'll find sufficient silver in the soil will be close to a silver mine.

It Should Be In Every Home

Bacteria, fungi and viruses cause a great majority of minor illnesses we have today from runny noses or colds to minor food poisoning. We catch many of these illnesses from being exposed to people as we go through our daily routines. At the end of the day, a quick spritz of EGCS into the nose and mouth could stop dangerous germs you've picked up at work, school, shopping, etc., from doing any damage.

Protection For Children And The Elderly

This is especially important with children and the elderly, who don't have strong immune systems. Also, burns, scrapes, cuts and minor rashes open the door allowing harmful organisms to enter the body and give us problems. Knowing that EGCS kills over 650 kinds of disease--causing microbes, it is ideal to have around the house to use when you feel something coming on or you get a cut, burn or rash.

Stop Food Poisoning Danger

In 1982, Dr. J. Cowlishaw demonstrated that EGCS would kill a bacteria called Escherichia coli or E. coli. In 1993, E. coli infested hamburgers at a few Jack-In-The Box fast-food restaurants on the West Coast and killed several people. Other bacteria can contaminate food and cause minor food poisoning that millions of people experience every year. Usually, this type of food poisoning only makes your stomach uncomfortable, but over 500 people die from food poisoning every year. EGCS may be handy to have around when you eat something that makes you sick.

Joseph Wasserman, M.D. :board certified immunologist and assistant clinical professor at University of California Medical School, is the author of a popular selling book, Choose to Live. He said, "Of the thousands of drugs on the market today, only vaccines and antibiotics actually cure disease. All the rest of the drugs simply make you more comfortable while the body cures itself. Now, many antibiotics are losing the battle with germs. Fortunately, the best germ killer, which was discovered over 2000 years ago, is finally getting the proper attention from medical science -natural silver. I sincerely recommend that every one have EGCS-40 in their home as an antiseptic, antibacterial and anti fungal agent."

Charles Anderson, M.D. , a fellow of the American Academy of Family Practice and a member of the Alternative Health Advisory Board, said: "EGCS-40 could save people a lot of discomfort and trips to their doctors because it can sop germs from proliferating in cuts and burns, Also, it can subdue colds, runny noses and many other maladies. As a germ fighter, there is nothing superior to it. I highly recommend that everyone use EGCS-40 when the occasion arises."

James R. Privitera, M.D., was formerly associated with the famous Scripps Clinic and served on the board of directors of The National Health Federation. Dr. Privitera has a private practice in California and is the author of a widely used medical textbook, Live Blood Analysis. He said, EGCS-40 has the drug companies scared as more and more doctors realize that natural medicines are really useful. The drug companies are apparently lobbying the FDA to make silver a prescription drug to reduce people's access to it. Antibiotics are the most profitable drugs for the drug companies because so many prescriptions are sold, yet every year they become less effective. EGCS-40 is finally finding its rightful place in the medicine cabinet. I urge everyone to try it."
