Jim Powell, in a Science Digest, March 1978 article titled "Our Mightiest germ Fighter" reported: "Thanks to eye-opening research, silver is emerging as a wonder of modern medicine. Resistant strains fail to develop. Moreover, silver is virtually non-toxic. He also comments in this same article that an antibiotic kills perhaps 7 different disease organisms, but silver kills some 650. The article ended with a quote by Dr. Harry Margraf of St. Louis, a biochemist and pioneering silver researcher, who concluded "Silver is the best all-around germ fighter we have."
In the bestseller, "The Body Electric," Dr. Robert Becker observed 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.
If this information is correct, and there is much evidence to support that it is, then my question is: Why has the medical profession abandoned the use of colloidal silver? Why is the public not generallly aware that Silver has been used in medical science for over 100 years and that there are numerous scientific essays and abstracts about astonishing findings that support present day research that Silver is one of the most powerful and non-toxic germ-fighters we have ever had.
I am concerned that the reason has much to do with the Pharmaceutical industry. Colloidal silver is considered to be user-friendly, safe and effective and thereby poses a threat to the drug company profits. Imagine the reduction in the use of antibiotics that could result if everyone used colloidal silver as a first-line-of-defense against infection. And that would only be the tip of the iceberg. Colloidal silver has been given a low and negative profile in the media because it exposes the motives of the Pharmaceutical companies who would rather promote expensive and potentially toxic medications. In the past years, the development of new antibiotics has given way to the production of more lucrative drugs for treatment of heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity. And as reported in the Medical News Today article a drug has been found which may help to stop anti-resistant bacteria.

Colloidal Silver ~ Ignored by Modern Medicine
Colloidal Silver has long been considered a powerful, natural prophylactic/antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, yet it is ignored as an alternative to mainstream medication and treatments.
Dr. Robert Becker writes "Modern medical science has failed too many of us with its single-minded (some would say narrow-minded) approach of drugs and/or surgery alone. There are other approaches that are widely used, effective and cheap which have been almost universally ignored, or worse, targeted for extinction by the medical community. Don't let someone else take your power away and tell you what to do for your own health. You be the judge. Look at what others all over the world have down to cure themselves of a wide variety of illnesses. World wide there have been documented "miracle cures" of everything from cancer, AIDS, diabetes, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and more. The results can be amazing and hard to believe at times, but they are real."
I could not agree more, and I am by nature a very skeptical person. I tried many remedies for CFS that did not work for me; and I stress the for me; this does not mean that they did not work for others. This is also the case with medication and other medical treatments. Every person is unique and responds differently to illness and treatment. It is because of our uniqueness thay you may someday be faced with the realization that the medical profession does not have all the answers and they will say, "There is nothing we can do for you." I have experienced this in my work as a RN and also in my personal life. No one has all the answers, not even the doctors. It is therefore wise, to keep an open mind to alternative treatments and remedies. Seek and learn because knowledge is power. Equipped with knowledge you can make informed decisions and choose what you believe to be the best options for optimal health. We live in a time when we are expected to and often must direct our own health care.
I believe using colloidal silver, is one of those choices. Colloidal silver is non-toxic, safe, effective, with no side-effects. It is a viable option for strengthening the immune system and can be used as a first line of defense against infection, bacterial, fungal and viral. It also functions as an anti-inflammatory and seems to accelerate the healing process.
I have found Colloidal Silver, i.e. The New Silver SolutionTM, to be very effective in treating a wide range of medical ailments. You will have to come to your own conclusions. One thing is important when reading all the information found on the Internet about colloidal silver. Make sure you understand what kind of colloidal silver the information pertains to. General statements are often made, and may be true, but may not be true for all types of colloidal silver. This has lead to much misunderstanding. So, be sure to get the facts straight.
What I write on the pages of this blog are my findings and my conclusions or opinions. You must do due diligence and then draw your own conclusions.

Colloidal Silver ~ What's the Scoop?
Shortly after I joined Nutronix, one of the Tuesday evening product calls featured a guest speaker, Dr. Kenneth Friedman Ph.D. (received his education at MIT and Harvard, with a Ph.D. at the State University of New York and has been published widely). Dr Friedman spoke extensively on the benefits and use of colloidal silver in treating a host of medical conditions. I was very intrigued by what I heard, so I started to do some reading on the topic of colloidal silver. There is an enormous amount of information on the subject of colloidal silver, both for and against. So who is telling the truth and what are the facts?
At the same time, I decided to order the The New Silver SolutionTM marketed exclusively by Nutronix. What I discovered astounded me. I used the colloidal silver to treat ear infections, burns, athletes foot, diaper rash, sinusitis, sore throats, colds, bug bites, minor infections, and so on. I found that the silver solution was effective, very effective in treating all these conditions. In our extended family we have significantly reduced the need for antibiotics, and seen first hand the healing effects of the colloidal silver.
I suffered for endless years with sinusitis. Every year, in spring, I would catch a cold, it would develop into sinusitis and on occasion into bronchitis and pneumonia. Often, several bouts of antibiotics were needed to clear up the infection. Three years ago, I got the usual cold and when my teeth start to ache, I know my sinuses are infected. Using the nasal sprayer, I started using the colloidal silver, spraying it up into my sinus passages. I did this frequently for a few days, by the 3rd day the pain and pressure were subsiding and within a week my sinuses were clear, and I did not need to go on antibiotics. To me this was astounding.
My granddaughter, suffered from frequent ear infections. She was staying with us for an extended time while her mom was ill. After, a couple of trips to the doctor and a few prescriptions, I began to put drops of silver into her ears, anytime I observed her rubbing them, pulling at them and exhibiting the usual crankiness that went along with her ear infections. Within a day she would be herself again and not rubbing her ears any more, and we did not need to see the doctor. She has not been plagued with ear infections since.
On two occasions, I accidentally poured boiling hot water on my hands. I sprayed them with silver immediately, and did so ever few minutes for about 10 minutes. I developed no redness, no blisters, and had no pain. Within I/2 hour, I would not have known that I just burnt my hands. When the same thing happened to my husband just recently, he was amazed at how effective the colloidal silver was in treating the burn. It is also very effective for treating sunburn.
Every heard of Molluscum Contagiosum. This is a very contagious viral skin infection. Unfortunately, one of the grandchildren caught the virus, and that started what I call a minor epidemic. It spread from one child to another. Mollusum is very hard to treat, and after the topical remedies were found ineffective, the dermatologist treated the lesions with Pulsed laser dye therapy. Following this expensive method of treatment, the lesions began to heal, but not before my son, my daughter and myself also developed the infection. I decided to try using the colloidal silver to treat my lesions. Several times each day I would spray the lesions with ionic silver. My son used the topical ointment the dermatologist prescribed. His got worse, while my lesions started to clear and within three weeks had all disappeared. My son, on the other hand, continued to be plagued with them for several months and several specialist visits. Too be honest, I really had not expected it to work, but was very glad it did.
These are just a few examples of my experience in using the silver solution. It worked, and it worked for many different things. So why had I never heard of it before then, and why did my doctor not recommend it to treat the molluscum. Why don't more people know about it and use it? That's what I wanted to know.
I continued to read all the information I could find on Colloidal Silver. There was no shortage of information to glean off the Internet. The challenge was to sort fact from fiction and come to some conclusion based on these facts. Since, I am convinced that there is much benefit to be gained from the use of a proper formulated silver solution, I decided to share my research and findings in the hope of increasing awareness of the benefits of colloidal silver. Much of this information, you will find scattered about on the Internet. I have just collected as much information as I could and tried to figure out what the real Scoop is. In my following entries, I'll share with you what I found and what I think. Happy reading.......

Have You Heard of Colloidal Silver?
Colloidal Silver. Ever heard of it? Maybe you have, maybe you have not. I hadn't until about 5 years ago and I'd like to share how this came about and what at this time prompted me to start a blog about Colloidal Silver.
I suffer from the debilitating effects of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, a condition that the medical community has not been able to easily diagnose, understand or treat. About 5 years ago, my symptoms were so severe I could barely function. I could hardly get out of bed to care for myself or my family. At that time we lived in a two-storey house, and it was agony to climb the stairs due to the pain in my joints. I had to quit my job, we sold our home and purchased a bungalow. Although things did slowly improve, I was functioning at a significantly lower level of activity than I was prior to becoming ill.
Since I was unable to go back to work, I began to entertain the idea of doing some work at home; something I could do in my own time and at my own pace. I began searching the internet and became intrigued with the idea of a home-based business.
After, I had been diagnosed with CFS and tried the conventional treatments for my symptoms, I began exploring alternative therapies. My doctor was very open to this, and I kept him informed about the different things I tried which included acupucture, chiropractor, chinese herbalist, iridology, reflexology, naturopathy. I am sure I tried ever product out there that claimed to help those suffering form CFS/Fibromyalgia. Unfortunately, nothing ever seemed to be very effective. Because of my own experience and my nursing background, I seemed to be drawn toward the health and wellness industry.
Too make a long story short, during my investigating I came across a company called Nutronix International. They were offering a free sample of Sublingual B-12. This caught my attention because I was taking a B-vitamin compound, as presribed by my doctor. I also understood that taking B-12 sublingually increased the absorption rate into the blood stream making the product more effective. Three days after I took my first dose, I noticed improvement in my energy levels, my memory, concentration and mood. I shared the B-12 product with some family members, who experienced the same boost in energy. After consulting with Bob Bremner, one of the owners, and a wonderfully caring individual, I tried several other products and within a few months was completely free of joint pain. Today I can walk and climb without pain. I joined the company and have been using and marketing their cutting edge nutritional products ever since.
So, what has all this to do with collidal silver? I'll let you know in my next posting...........
