COLLOIDAL SILVER © Lynn Harrison 2003 The trace mineral silver has long been recognised by cultures around the world for its cleansing and medicinal properties. Early historic records show the King of Persia (550-529 BC) to have stored his stream water in silver vessels after boiling. Wine, vinegar and other liquids were also known to last longer if stored in silver containers; eating/drinking from silver utensils was believed to reduce the transmission of germs. In the early 1900s scientists discovered that the body's most important fluids are colloidal in nature (suspending ultra-fine particles in a separate medium). This led to studies with silver colloids. Until 1938 silver was commonly used as a mainstream non-toxic, non-addictive antibiotic treatment, administered in almost every way that modern drugs are used today. It was injected both intravenously and intramuscularly, used as a gargle for throat conditions, applied as a douche, taken orally, applied topically even for sensitive tissues, and dropped into the eyes. Colloidal Silver is a pure, all natural substance consisting of sub-microscopic clusters of silver, held in suspension of purified water by a tiny electric charge placed on each particle. It is known to be successful against more that 650 illness-causing micro organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi) without causing any known harmful side effects or toxicity. SOME OF THESE ILLNESSES: Acne Arthritis Asthma Athlete's Foot Bladder Inflam Blood Poisoning Burns Cancer Candida Canine Parvo Chronic Fatigue Colds/Flu Colitis Conjunctivitis Dermatitis Diabetes Diarrhoea Dysentery Ear Ache Eczema Eye Inflam Fibrositis Gastritis Gonorrhoea Gum Disease Herpes Impetigo Indigestion Keratitis Laryngitis Leprosy Lupus Lyme Disease Malaria Mastitis Meningitis Nappy Rash Neurasthenia Parasitic Infection Pleurisy Pneumonia Prostate Psoriasis Pruritis Ani Purulent Oph Pymphagaitis Ringworm Rheumatism Rhinitis Rosacea Scarlet Fever Seborrhoea Septicaemia Shingles Sinus Infection Skin Cancer Staph Infection Strep Infection Syphilis Tonsillitis Tooth Ache Toxaemia Trachoma Trenchfoot Tuberculosis Ulcers Urinary Infection Virus Warts Whooping Cough Yeast Infection Note: No claim can be made as to any specific benefits resulting from the use of Colloidal Silver. Self-medication should never be used as a substitute for the care and expertise of a professional health care provider. The presence of Colloidal Silver near a virus, fungus, bacterium or any other single-celled pathogen disables its oxygen-metabolism enzyme. 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 also 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 suitable for humans, animals, reptiles, plants and all multi-celled living matter. With the development of penicillin in the early 1940s (and the many other subsequent antibiotics), the use of silver began to decline because of its high production costs by comparison. However 30-40 years later it became evident that infectious diseases were making a comeback. New strains of disease-causing bacteria have become resistant to almost every antibiotic invented and, consequently, a serious threat to us all. They can find their way from one type of bacterium to another using their own gene-transfer mechanisms, and some scientists believe the super bugs develop a mutant gene resistant to drugs. Hospital-borne bacterial disease for example, often from antibiotic-resistant strains, has become a hazard to patients, staff and visitors alike. In the 1970s silver began to become popular again from works carried out to develop better burn treatments. Silver ions are now being used world-wide to promote skin growth after severe accident, bone regeneration, wound healing, assisting in combating Legionnaire's Disease, sterilizing water on space shuttles, treatment of sewage, purifying of air, etc. Super bugs beware. SUGGESTED USE: ORALLY 1 teaspoon for 7 days, then teaspoon daily. In chronic cases, 2 teaspoons daily. Children half dose. Best taken one or two hours before or after food. Animals - depending upon the size (e.g. large dog, child's dose). Use dropper to put Colloidal Silver down the throat, or add to drinking water. TOPICALLY Apply directly to cuts, scrapes, open sores, insect bites, etc. Dab directly onto skin cancers, eczema, psoriasis, acne, or any skin problem. EYES, EARS & NOSE One or two drops, as required. Babies' too. DOUCHES/ COLONICS Add two teaspoons to pure water. WATER PURIFICATION Add one ounce per gallon, shake well, wait 6 minutes then shake again and wait a further 6 minutes before drinking. DIGESTIVE AID Drink 4 pints per day of the above purification, especially with meals - this helps eliminate fermentation. PLANTS For all bacterial, fungal and viral attacks on plants, simply spray diluted silver onto the leaves and add to soil. Mix one tablespoon per quart of water. Present day, Colloidal Silver is available at a fraction of the previous cost and once again growing in popularity for everyday use.
