Most Powerful, Non-Toxic Antibiotic Available Colloidal Silver - The Antibiotic Alternative
Universal Antibotic Effective for More Than 650 Disease Organisms
Silver is considered to be one of the most universal antibiotic substances known, effective against over 650 different disease organisms. To primitive life forms, silver is as toxic as the most powerful disinfectant even in minute quantities, yet it is non-toxic to humans in its micro-concerntrations of 3-5 ppm. In laboratory tests colloidal silver killed destructive bacteria, virus and fungus organisms within minutes of contact.
Colloidal Silver is a special liquid preparation of this trace mineral that is extremely safe to use, even with children, without the negative side effects of prescription antibiotics. Prior to 1938 colloidal silver was considered to be one of the mainstays of antibiotics treatment, even though methods used in the early 1900's could not produce the ultra-microscopic silver particles needed for optimun effectiveness. With the onset of the more profitable pharmaceutical movement, colloid research was set aside in favor of fast-working, less costly, more toxic and potentially dangerous drugs. Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria and Viruses...Now an Epidemic in the U.S....Cannot Build Resistance to Silver Antibiotic-resistance 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 disinfects over 650. Most importantly, unlike coventional antibiotics, germs cannot build a resistance to the action of silver. Many forms of bacteria, viruses and fungi utilize a specific enzyme for their metabolism. Silver acts as a catalyst, effectively disabling the enzyme. It is toxic to all species tested of fungi, bacteria, protozoa, parasites and many viruses including Streptococcus Pyogenes, Staphylococcus Aureus, Neisseria Gonerrhea, Gardnerella Vaginalis, Salmonella Typhi and other enteric pathogens. It is fungicidal for Candida Albicans, Candida Globata and M. Furfur. The comeback of silver in medicine began in the 1970's. The late Dr. Carl Moyer, chairman of Washington University's Department of Surgery, received a grant to develop better treatment for burn victims. Dr. Harry Margraf, cheif biochemist, worked with Dr. Moyer and other surgeons to find an antiseptic strong enough, yet safe to use over large areas of the body. Dr. Margraf reveiwed 22 antiseptic compounds and found draw backs in all of them. "Mercury, for example, is an excellent antiseptic but toxic," he commented. "Popular antiseptics...can be used over small areas only." Futhermore,disease organisms can become resistant triggering a dangerous super-infection. Most popular antiseptics are also ineffective against a number of harmful bacteria including Pseudomonas acruginose, the biggest killer in burn cases. In reveiwing medical literature, Dr. Margraf found repeated references to silver. It was described as a catalyst that disables the enzymes microorganisms depend upon to breathe. He used a dilute (.5%) silver nitrate solution that killed the bacteria and allowed the wounds to heal. Resistant strains did not develop. Silver nitrate, however, is not ideal. It disturbs the balance of body salts, needing to be halted from time to time. It was also stains everything it touches. Medical reports from early 1900's demonstrated that a properly prepared colloid of silver was the only form of silver solution that is not deposited under the skin. Natural, Safe, Effective Alternative to Antibiotics Colloidal silver is tasteless, odorless and nonstinging to sensitive tissues. It may be taken orally or applied topically to cuts,scrapes, open sores, warts, acne, eczema and other shin irritations. It may be gargled, dropped into eyes or ears, used vaginally or anally, atomized or inhaled into the nose or lungs. Optimum benifits result from consistent daily use. Medical tests indicate no known adverse effects from the use of properly prepared colloidal silver, and there has never been a recorded case of drug interaction with any other medication. Some lab test have shown that "true" colloidal silver in the range of 3-5 ppm has little little effect on"friendly" bacteria. When taken orally, sublingual absorption directly into the bloodstream should occur before the silver particles reach the small or large intestine where intestinal bacteria normally dominate. However, in the case of the known intestinal infection, enemas or colonics of colloidal silver can be used to directly empose the infection to the sterilizing benefit of colloidal silver. Daily consumption of colloidal silver could significantly reduce the incidence of infection. Unlike some pharmaceutical preparations, colloida silver will not stain the skin. It is also superior to silver nitrate solutions that irritate delicate tissues and disturb the balance of body salts. Silver occurs naturally in the soil as a trace mineral. It is one of many essential elements required by plants, animals and man. Once it could be naturally obtained from organic soils via fruits, vegetables, nuts, grains and legumes. Now, with most of our crop plants grown on highly depleted, chemically fertilized soils, many of the important metallic and trace minerals are no longer readily available except through supplements. Some researchers suggest that silver may be linked tot the proper functioning of the body's natural defense system and that people with an inadequate intake of silver may be more prone to illness. Electrocolloidal Processing Produces a "True" Colloid of Silver for Maximum Effect and Safety The term "colloidal" refers to a substance that concists of ultra-fine particles that do not dissolve, but remain suspended in a medium of different matter. These ultra-fine paticles are larger tahn most moleules, but so small they cannot be seen by the naked eye. The particles are electrically charged to activate the germicidal quality of the silver and allow the particles to remain suspended in the solution of deionized water. A number of methods have been used to produce colloidal silver. The "grind" method used in the early 1900's produced particles that were too large to stay in supension. "Stabilizers" had to be added which tend to disturb the charge on the silver particles, thereny blocking their action and reducing their overall effectiveness. More recently, chemical processes have been used. The problem with using chemicals (acids) to produce colloids is the difficulty in getting them back out of the solution. Our Colloidal Silver is produced by electrocolloid process which allows extremely fine silver particles to be suspended in solution by the tiny charge placed on the particles.
