The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control1
(ECDC) shows a significant rise of resistance to multiple
antibiotics in Klebsiella pneumoniae and E. coli in just
the last four years , affecting more than one-third of the
EU, and the primary cause for this man-made epidemic is the
widespread misuse of antibiotics.
Between the years of 1993 and 2005, the number of Americans
hospitalized due to the antibiotic-resistant “superbug” MRSA
(methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) skyrocketed
from about 2,000 to 370,000.
Currently, MRSA and
other antibiotic-resistant infections kill about 60,000
• In the EU there were about 3 million healthcare
associated infections in 2006, leading to 50,000 deaths
according to some estimates.
• In the US, there were about 1.7 million healthcare associated infections
in 2002 leading to 99,000 deaths.
The mortality rates of nosocomial infections show a sharp increase when
they are caused by antibiotic-resistant strains compared with sensitive
strains.
New research shows that low doses of silver can massively
boost the effect of antibiotics on bacteria, making them
up to 1,000 times more sensitive to the drugs. The researchers
hope their discovery will give new life to old antibiotics,
including those to which microbes have become resistant.
Promising
cure to URTI pandemics, including the Avian flu (H5N1):
has the final solution to the coming
plagues been discovered? (Part II)
Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering
at Harvard University, reported their findings in a paper
published online in Science Translational Medicine on
19 June.A team lead by Jim Collins, a biomedical engineer
at Boston University, showed that dissolved silver ions
interfere with several cellular processes in bacteria,
including disulfide-bond formation, iron homeostasis,
and metabolism. These changes not only make the cell
membrane more permeable, but also lead to increased production
of reactive oxygen species, which can induce cell death
via DNA damage. (Last month, a report from a different
group found that vitamin C has a similar effect on the
bacteria that cause tuberculosis.)
A declining pipeline of clinically
useful antibiotics has made it imperative to develop
more effective antimicrobial therapies, particularly
against difficult-to-treat Gram-negative pathogens. Silver has
been used as an antimicrobial since antiquity,
yet its mechanism of action remains unclear. We
show that silver disrupts multiple bacterial cellular
processes, including disulfide bond formation,
metabolism, and iron homeostasis. Source |

When Jim Collins and colleagues supplemented antibiotics
with a small amount of silver, both in vitro and in a
mouse model of a urinary tract infection, the combination
killed up to 1,000 times more bacteria than the antibiotics
did on their own. In addition, the researchers showed
that silver sensitizes Gram-negative bacteria to vancomycin,
a large-molecule antibiotic that usually can’t
breach the outer coating on the bacterial cell membranes.
Mortality rates of infections by antibiotic
resistant/susceptible bacteria
They found not only did silver boost the
ability of a broad range of commonly used antibiotics
so as to stop mice dying of otherwise lethal infections,
but it made at least one resistant bacterium succumb
to antibiotics again.

The addition of silver also broadened the effect of
vancomycin, an antibiotic that is usually only effective
at killing Gram-positive bacteria like Staph and Strep;
aided by silver it killed Gram-negative bacteria such
as those that cause food poisoning and dangerous hospital-acquired
infections.

Vance Fowler, an infectious disease physiologist at
Duke University in North Carolina, told Nature that the
study is “really cool”
Silver has been used for thousands of years as an antimicrobial
agent and has been included in wound dressings and bandages
to inhibit the growth of infectious microorganisms. *In
this study, researchers wanted to gain a more comprehensive
understanding of why silver acts this way against bacteria.
Hippocrates is known to have used it to treat ulcers
and wounds, the Romans almost certainly knew of its healing
properties, its use continued through the middle ages
and up to the present day.
"The presence of colloidal
silver near a virus, fungus, bacterium or any
single celled pathogen disables its oxygen metabolism
enzyme, its chemical lung, so to say. Within
a few minutes, the pathogen suffocates and dies
and is cleared out of the body by the immune,
lymphatic and elimination systems."
"Unlike pharmaceutical
antibiotics which destroy beneficial enzymes,
Colloidal Silver leaves these tissue-cell enzymes
intact as they are radically different from
the enzymes of primitive single-celled life.
Thus Colloidal Silver is absolutely safe for
humans, reptiles, plants, and all multi-celled
living matter."
"Colloidal Silver is the
result of an electro-magnetic process that
pulls microscopic particles from a larger piece
of silver into a liquid such as water. These
microscopic particles can more easily penetrate
and travel throughout the body. Colloidal Silver
works as a catalyst, disabling the enzyme that
all one celled bacteria, fungi, and viruses
use for their oxygen metabolism. In short,
the bad guys suffocate."From www.healthnews.com
we quoted from the article |
“We found that (silver) was affecting the membrane
of gram-negative bacteria, such as E. coli, making their
membranes more permeable,” study author Jim Collins,
the William F. Warren Distinguished Professor at Boston
University and a faculty member at the Wyss Institute
for Biologically Inspired Engineering, told FoxNews.com.
With the recent rise of deadly drug-resistant
bacteria in the United States, once potent antibiotics
are losing their luster as they increasingly becoming
powerless in the fight against these dangerous infections.
*But new research suggests that an extra ingredient could
help boost antibiotics’ overall effectiveness."
Collins explained that the silver also interacts with
central metabolism, leading to the disruption of iron
homeostasis. *In turn, this causes the production of
molecules known as reactive oxygen species (ROS), which
ultimately damage the bacterial cell’s DNA and
enzymes.
“We recognized that one or both of these mechanisms
could be exploited to enhance the killing efficacy of
antibiotics,” Collins said.
Along with his colleague J. Ruben Morones-Ramirez, a
former post-doctoral fellow in Collins’ laboratory
who is currently a professor at Universidad Autónoma
de Nuevo Leon in Mexico, Collins and his team conducted
a series of tests on the antibiotic-silver combination
in vitro (in petri dishes) and in vivo (in mouse models).

WTH,,
" Wayback in 2006 a
clinical study from BYU (published
in Current Science, Vol. 91, No. 7, 10
October 2006) documented the fact
that adding colloidal silver to an antibiotic
drug such
as penicillin actually increases the
efficacy of the antibiotic by a factor
of as much
as tenfold when used against antibiotic-resistant
microbes.
In other words, the study demonstrated
that standard antibiotics – including
penicillin -- tend to work significantly better against antibiotic-resistant
microbes when colloidal silver is added!
I n fact, since way back in the late 1800’s when medical
researchers first learned how to run currents of electricity through
pure silver wire suspended in water and created the first crude
colloidal silver solution, colloidal silver has never lost its
powerful infection-fighting qualities against the myriad of pathogens
it’s been used to treat. " |
Through their tests, the team showed that
just a small amount of silver made E. coli bacteria between
10 and 1,000 times more sensitive to commonly prescribed
antibiotics, such as penicillin. In the mice models,
Collins and his team demonstrated that silver was able
to change the membrane permeability of gram-negative
bacteria. *This enabled a large antibiotic called vancomycin,
which has normally been used to fight gram-positive bacteria,
to be effective against gram-negative as well.
Most importantly, the researchers showed that silver
helped the antibiotic tetracycline fight a previously
resilient strain of E. coli. *This signified that the
combination of silver and antibiotics could be used to
resensitize antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria.
The rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, such as deadly
MRSA or Clostridium difficile, has been considered a
major health threat by the Food and Drug Administration.
*To fight this growing problem, the FDA has called for
the reduction of drug-resistant bacteria in foods and
animals used in food production, as well as the creation
of new antibiotics to combat these deadly infections.
But the study’s findings indicate that the development
of new drugs may not be necessary, Collins said. *The
team suggested silver could be used as coating on existing
antibiotics or incorporated into medical implants, to
help prevent or eradicate infections that often occur
during such medical procedures.
“Can we make our antibiotic arsenal stronger using
these engineering methods?” Collins said. *“The
number of antibiotic-resistant strains has been growing,
and the number of new antibiotics being made and approved
are dramatically dropping. So instead of discovering
and developing novel antibiotics, could we figure out
ways to make the ones we have better?”
The research was published June 19 in Science Translational
Medicine.
"That's a pretty interesting news brief,
considering that the FDA has ruled that colloidal silver
preparations are "not proven safe and effective" as
germ-killing agents (FDA
Final Ruling July 1999). Furthermore, for the past
six months the FDA and FTC have instituted a massive
ongoing campaign to stop colloidal silver manufacturers
and sellers from mentioning silver's medical qualities
in their advertising. In a recent press release which
was published on page A-1 of The Wall St. Journal and
many other U.S. newspapers, the FDA/FTC cabal bragged
that dozens of colloidal silver sellers were being forced
to change their advertising literature or remove their
advertising altogether.
Myth,,,CS
destroys stomach Bacteria
"Former teacher of physics and chemistry,
Howard Mitchell of Virginia, recently conducted a series
of experiments with colloidal silver. He found that CS
has no effects on acidophilus, the 'good bacteria' found
in the stomach. Mitchell used concentrations forty times
higher than what might be expected to destroy other forms
of bacteria. It shows that even in large dosages, the
intestinal flora will flourish. In fact, there is speculation
that the silver ions may be advantageous in stimulating
a vigorous growth of beneficial bacteria, helping to
boost the immune system."
Why then do you think that The European Union
banned the sale of oral colloidal silver supplements
several years ago.But has no problem with allowing
the sale of nanosilver-infused clothing, such as nanosilver
socks
As you can see
at this link, EU companies can even claim in their
advertising that nanosilver-embedded socks will kill
over 600 pathogens, including the following nasty,

for years:
Suffocates The Bugs
Primitive one-celled life uses a different method of oxygen metabolism.
When Colloidal silver comes into contact with any virus, fungus or bacterium
it immobilizes the oxygen-metabolising enzyme, or chemical lung.
These disease-causing pathogens suffocate and die within minutes and
are then cleared out of the body by the immune, lymphatic and eliminatory
systems.
Is Now Science is waking up? Dr. Robert O. Becker says, “What
we have actually done is rediscover the fact that silver
kills bacteria which has been known for centuries. When
antibiotics were discovered, clinical uses for silver
as an antibiotic were discarded.”
"Simply
How Colloidal Silver Works Against A Virus
A single virus will invade a living cell of body tissue.
The pathogen will take over the nucleus of the cell and alter its
production/reproductive mechanism so as to replicate itself instead
of the enzyme, hormone or other chemical the cell was intended
to produce.
As the virus changes the cell
for its own purposes, the cell reverts to a
more primitive form of cell structure and chemistry.
The oxygen-metabolising enzyme, or chemical lung, in the cell wall
also reverts and is vulnerable to the effect of Colloidal Silver.
The catalytic effect of the
Colloidal Silver inhibits the enzyme which
then cannot function to bring oxygen into the
cell. The virus-producing cell now dies and
is eliminated along with the millions of cells
that end their usefulness each day.
How
Colloidal Silver Works Against Bacteria.
Bacteria, which are single-celled & primitive, use an enzyme,
or chemical lung, for their oxygen metabolism.
The presence of Colloidal Silver inhibits the enzyme, causing suffocation.
The bacteria will be killed within minutes and without any effect
on the surrounding tissue cells.
How
Colloidal Silver Works Against Fungus
A fungus is a series of single cells having tiny tubes of the material
of the cell wall stretched between the cells.
Fungus still exhibits that characteristic of any one-celled bacterium – a
chemical lung which is immobilised by the presence of Colloidal
Silver.
It takes only minutes to suffocate the attacking fungus.
Parasitic
Infections
Taking larger doses spread over the day, for several days, should
interrupt the life-cycle of the tiny, worm-like animals that burrow
through a particular organ. These parasites reproduce by laying
eggs which have the same characteristics of the oxygen-metabolising
enzyme as the primitive single-celled bacterium. Without their
oxygen supply these eggs cannot hatch, and die. " |
A
Closer Look At Colloidal Silver By Peter A. Lindemann,
"Use of Colloids in Health and Disease." Colloidal
silver has proven particularly effective in cases of
intestinal troubles. Dr. Henry Crooks found that "silver
in the colloidal state is highly germicidal, quite harmless
to humans and absolutely non-toxic. Rather than in a
chemical compound, the silver in the colloidal state
may be applied in a much more concentrated form, with
correspondingly better results. All virus, fungus, bacterium,
streptococcus, staphylococcus, and other pathogenic organisms
are killed in three or four minutes upon contact. There
are no side effects whatsoever from the highest concentrations."
Dr. Robert Becker, "The Body Electric," recognized
a correlation between low silver levels and sickness.
He said the silver deficiency was responsible for the
improper functioning of the immune system. Dr. Becker's
experiments conclude that silver works on the full spectrum
of pathogens without any side effects or damage to any
part of the body. He also states that the silver was
doing something more than killing disease organisms.
It was also causing major growth stimulation of injured
tissues. Burn patients and elderly patients noticed more
rapid healing. He discovered that all cancer cells change
back to normal cells. All strains of pathogens resistant
to other antibiotics are killed by colloidal silver.
Yet at that time he couldn't find a silver supplement
on the market.
" Silver, Our Mightiest Germ Fighter," ScienceDigest,
March 1978. As an antibiotic, colloidal silver kills
over 650 disease causing organisms, and resistant strains
fail to develop. Silver is the best all-around germ fighter
we have and is absolutely non-toxic! Doctors report that,
taken internally, it works against syphilis, cholera,
malaria, diabetes and severe burns. Richard L. Davies,
executive director of the Silver Institute which monitors
silver technology in 37 countries, reports: "In
four years we've described 87 important new medical uses
for silver."
"If you’re a mother with young children,
watch how quickly diaper rash, eye infections and
ear infections clear up with colloidal silver.
For diaper rash, spray directly on the body and
into the fresh diaper. You can apply it with an
eye dropper for any type of eye infection. Ear
infections quickly heal after spraying colloid
in the ear, saturating a small piece of cotton
for an earplug and then periodically re-spraying.
Spray it on band-aid pads to shorten healing time.
Spray immediately on burns (sunburns too) to prevent
infections, lower pain, and promote faster healing
with less scarring. Add to bath water, gargles,
colon irrigation and Water-Pic solutions. Added
to douches, women will find that it will rapidly
clear up vaginal/yeast infections and most cases
of cystitis.
Older folks who are bedridden can especially
benefit from silver colloid. Rinse all sheets,
pillow cases, towels, blankets, etc by pouring
a large cupful into your washer during its
rinse cycle. Naturally, spray it directly on
festering bed sores, skin rashes, psoriasis,
etc. and watch what happens! Add to soaks for
dentures and dental appliances.
Allergic reactions to certain foods or other
irritants can cause hives or welts to appear
on any area of the body of susceptible people
shortly after exposure. Instead of running
off to the doctor’s office for a steroid
prescription of topical Cortisone or worst
yet, Prednisone, spray colloidal silver on
the affected area and watch the hives completely
disappear in 15 minutes or so! "By: K.

Dr. Bjorn Nordstrom, of the Karolinska
Institute, Sweden, has used silver in his cancer treatment
method. He says the whole thing is quite simple. This
brought rapid remission in patients given up on by other
doctors.

Make Your Own Colloidal Silver,
the Antibiotic of the Future!
Antibiotic-resistant germs
are now considered epidemic in the United States,
accounting for a growing number of serious
infectious disorders. While most antibiotics
disinfect about a half dozen or so germs, silver
has been reported to disinfect hundreds. Most
importantly, unlike conventional antibiotics,
germs cannot build a resistance to the action
of silver. A properly prepared colloid of silver
is a special liquid preparation of this trace
mineral that is extremely safe to use, even
with children and pets, without many of the
negative side effects of prescription antibiotics.

Colloidal Silver for Maximum Protection Against Swine
Flu In spite of an FDA crackdown on companies touting
colloidal silver as a Swine Flu preventive and remedy,
a number of high-profile medical researchers and related
experts have been recommending colloidal silver as a
first-line of defense against the Swine Flu and other
viral pandemics.
These include Dr Eric Gordon, MD, Dr. Kent
Holtorf, MD, Dr. Sherry Tenpenny, DO, Major General Albert "Bert" N.
Stubblebine III (former commanding general of the United
States Army Intelligence and Security Command), Dr. Rima
E. Laibow, MD, Dr. Leonard G. Horowitz, Dr Rebecca Carley

Silver
Dr. Gordon Pedersen, Ph.D., an expert in toxicology and virology who
is associated with the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine and
is Director of the Institute of Alternative Medicine, has joined the
ranks of those advocating for colloidal silver usage in the face of
coming viral pandemics.
In his new article, Swine Flu Influenza
Type A/H1N1 Protection for Health Care Practitioners
and Their Patients, published in the Anti-Aging News
Journal, he repeatedly recommends silver to stop not
only the virus itself, but also the secondary bacterial
infections that cause diseases such as pneumonia, which
set in after the body has been weakened by the virus.
Possible
ways of Enhancing the action of Colloidal
Silver
Using Colloidal Silver and
Cayenne
Possible ways of Enhancing
the action of Colloidal Silver
This document explores using
cayenne pepper to increase colloidal silver
effectiveness. Cayenne stimulates the circulatory
system and may act as a carrier for other
combined substances.
Cayenne Pepper
The greatest benefit of using cayenne pepper in natural medicine
comes from cayenne's ability to rapidly stimulate the circulatory
system and deliver fresh blood and nutrients to the heart
and other organs in the body. When used properly, cayenne "opens
up" capillaries allowing vitalized blood to reach areas
that it may not normally reach due to poor circulation.
Clinical and anecdotal evidence
strongly suggests that cayenne pepper can
be utilized to carry other substances, such
as herbs and other nutrients, into the bloodstream
- and sometimes within seconds. Extensive
clinical studies conducted with cayenne pepper
and Ginko Biloba demonstrate that Ginko is
effective in 75% more cases than if the herb
were used alone. This is significant since
in order for Ginko Biloba to be effective
it must be carried directly to the brain.
Extensive reports by Dr.
Christopher show the vast benefit cayenne
pepper can have both with emergency heart
conditions and the health of the entire circulatory
system. Dr. Christopher, after extensive
experience, believed that cayenne pepper
delivers vital nutrients directly to the
heart within seconds of proper use. He utilized
the stimulating effects of cayenne to restore
proper function to the heart in heart attack
cases.
Although it's much more convenient
to use capsules, the full benefit cannot
be achieved with this method. A tincture
or a powder ( added to water ) should be
used. A full strength dose is one teaspoon
of powder mixed into a glass of warm water.
Despite the initial discomfort, it is critical
that the cayenne come in contact with the
tongue as the cayenne acts as a metabolic
catalyst.
Cayenne and Colloidal Silver
It is unknown exactly how effective cayenne pepper is in delivering
colloidal silver to the bloodstream or organs of the body.
In addition to stimulating the circulatory system, cayenne
loosens the mucus in the lungs associated with infections.
Within only a few minutes of using cayenne orally, the mucus
begins to break up, and the lungs begin a process of clearing.
This treatment is ideal when nebulizing with colloidal silver.
Since any colloidal silver is only effective in areas it
can directly reach, utilizing cayenne in this manner can
greatly increase the infection fighting properties of colloidal
silver as used in the lungs.
Then, having mixed one teaspoon
of cayenne powder in a glass of warm water,
one takes a partial mouthful of the mixture,
and holds it under the tongue for as long
as possible before swallowing ( at least
30 seconds ). The discomfort is temporary,
and is best done when the stomach is not
empty.
This treatment should be
tailored according to the situation and the
tolerance/condition of the person in question.
Definitive results should become quite evident
within 72 hours even with chronic conditions.
It is always wise to use
cayenne pepper sparingly when the body is
not adjusted to use ( the same can be said
of colloidal silver ). To do so, adjust the
frequency of use and not the individual dose
level. The critical part of the treatment
is delivering as much of cayenne's "heat" to
the body at one time as is safely possible.
The full potential of cayenne
as used with colloidal silver is unexplored.
Considering the known benefits of cayenne
and its proven safety in culinary use, it
is undoubtedly an excellent addition to any
health regime. |
Dr. Henry Crooks found that silver is highly
germicidal, quite harmless to humans and absolutely nontoxic.
From his bacteriological experiments with silver he concluded, “I
know of no microbe that is not killed in laboratory experiments
in six minutes.”
Dr. Richard L. Davies, Executive Director
of the Silver Institute, which monitors silver technology
in 37 nations, reports, “In four years we’ve
described 87 important new medical uses for silver. We’re
just beginning to see to what extent silver can help
promote healthy body function.
J. Powell, Editor of Science Digest, “Silver
is emerging as a wonder of modern medicine. An antibiotic
kills some half-dozen harmful organisms but silver kills
some 650. Resistant strains do not develop. Even tiny
amounts of silver wipe out huge quantities of harmful
organisms.”
For two centuries,
Colloidal Silver has received excellent reviews from
the international medical community’s most
prestigious doctors, researchers, institutions and
publications. The following are quotes from some
of them:
"I know of no microbe that is not
killed in laboratory experiments within 6 minutes" — Dr.
Henry Cooks
If you begin to experience
any cold or flu-like symptoms, simply begin
taking Colloidal Silver, initially tripling
the dosage for three days, and then follow
the normal regimen. Once you have used Colloidal
Silver for a certain length of time, your body
will become less susceptible to colds or influenza.
If you develop any aches or sluggishness around
3 to 4 days after using Colloidal Silver, you
are merely experience a cleansing reaction
or "healing crisis" while the body
is dislodging and expelling stored toxins through
the various organs of elimination (including
the pores of the skin). This condition is temporary,
and its severity can be significantly reduced
by ingesting additional quantities of purified
water. |

Some researchers, such as Dr. Leonard Keene
Hirschberg, A.M., M.D. of Johns Hopkins, believe that
the potential of colloidal silver is just beginning to
be discovered. Unlike antibiotics, which are specific
only to bacteria, Colloidal Silver disables certain enzymes
needed by anaerobic bacteria, viruses, yeasts, and fungus
resulting in the destruction of these enzymes. Further
indication is that these bacteria cannot develop a resistance
to silver, as they do with antibiotics, because silver
attacks their food source, rather than them directly
Insofar as scientific studies, last year
it was reported that researchers in Hungary found specific
silver receptors on human tissue - an indication that
silver plays an important role in human health. A joint
study between the University of Texas and Mexico University
published in the Journal of Nanotechnology which showed
that silver nanoparticles of sizes 1-10nm attached to
HIV-1 and prevented the virus from bonding to host cells.
A study conducted by the Department of
Microbiology at Kyungpook National University in Daegu,
Korea, and published in the prestigious Journal of Microbiology
and Biotechnology, found that nano-silver was comparable
in effectiveness to Amphotericin B, one of the most powerful
prescription antifungal drugs known to man, which is
often used intravenously to cure serious systemic fungal
infections, and was found to be superior to the well-known
anti-fungal drug fluconazole (popularly known as Diflucan).
And then there is the recently completed
study conducted by researchers from the Washington University
School of Medicine and the University of Akron, Ohio,
and presented at the 105th International Conference of
the American Thoracic Society, where researchers infected
a group of mice with the bacteria Pseudomona aeroginosa,
a common cause of bacterial pneumonia in humans, especially
those on ventilators, those with cystic fibrosis or those
with compromised immune systems. All the mice which inhaled
aerosolized nanoparticles known as silver silver carbene
complexes (SCCs), had significantly lower concentrations
of bacteria in their lungs than mice inhaling placebo
nanoparticles. Most significantly, none of the mice in
the SCC group died, while all the mice in the control
group did.
On the basis of the achieved results we
may conclude that by application of colloidal silver
water was achieved significant success in treatment of
patients with mild urinary infection, and in combination
with antibiotic in grave urinary infections.More In Kragujevac

Do you think
it works now???
Dr Bob Beck has repeatedly
pointed out in his many lectures, that there are
literally thousands of other beneficial uses for
colloidal silver that need to be attempted and explored.
So this is your chance. Do your part and experiment
with this marvelous gift of Nature.
