Steve Barwick is frequently referred to as the "resident colloidal silver advocate" of The Silver Edge, a division of The Silver Bullet Health & Nutritionals, Inc. (www.TheSilverEdge.com), which is the world's largest and most successful distributor of high-quality colloidal silver generators.

Barwick is a long-time enthusiastic advocate of the responsible use of colloidal silver. He is also a strong proponent of taking personal responsibility for one's own health and well-being, particularly through proper nutrition and natural health. He sees this as a vital, but frequently overlooked component of the old-fashioned American ideal of self-determination and rugged individualism that helped make this country the greatest nation on the face of the earth.

As such, he is staunch supporter of the personal health freedoms of all Americans. He is strictly against the looming globalist Codex Alimentarius regulations that have been designed to rob individuals of their personal health freedoms and turn everyone's health care decisions over to faceless corporate bureaucrats.

A journalist by trade, Barwick has been a freelance writer since 1974, focusing primarily on natural health and nutrition topics, as well as on finance and politics.

His articles have appeared in a variety of local, regional and national publications including Grit, Boy's Life, Pacific magazine, Life & Health magazine, The Spotlight, American Free Press, Explore!, Health Science News, The American Sentinel, Vegetarian Times, the Desert Dispatch, the Christian Freedom Letter, Wealth Trends, the Orange County Register, the Bright Outlook, 50-Plus, The Bio-Tech News and many others. His articles have also been published on a variety of internet publishing forums and venues.

Frequently writing under the pen name of S. Spencer Jones (in honor of his birth father, the late writer Stanley Jones), he is also the author, co-author, or editor of the following five books:

• The Ultimate Colloidal Silver Manual
• Bioterrorism: Secrets for Survival (aka "The Bioterrorism Manual")
• How to Survive Nuclear, Chemical and Biological Terrorism
• The Ultimate Immune System Repair Manual (aka "The Immune Manual")
• The Beta-1,3-1,6-glucan Manual   

Barwick is also the featured guest star of the recently released 60-minute, studio-quality Colloidal Silver Secrets video, in which he is thoroughly grilled by television personality Kristyn Burrt on the topic of colloidal silver and its usage.

Barwick also blogs on the topic of colloidal silver at http://colloidalsilversecrets.blogspot.com/

For the past 27 years, Barwick has also been a respected direct mail copywriter and marketing consultant. He counts many of today's top natural health and alternative medicine publishers among his clients, as well as many top financial and political newsletter publishers.

He began his marketing career in southern California as a direct mail copywriter, helping write political election campaign and fundraising materials for a variety of well-known conservative politicians and political organizations. These included former CA Republican Senate Minority Whip John V. Briggs, and the California Senate Republican Committee.

Barwick is also former publisher of two popular newsletters for direct mail copywriters and marketers, Strictly Copy and For Direct Marketers Only. He currently runs Barwick Direct Marketing, his freelance copywriting agency, and has just launched a brand new consulting firm for budding young copywriters called 7 Figure Copywriting Coach™.

Says Barwick, "My marketing philosophy is quite different than anyone else's. For me, marketing has very little to do with selling things to people. Instead, marketing is the art of helping people understand whether or not the product you are offering is exactly what they have been looking for. It is the art of getting your product into the hands of people who already want exactly what you have to offer. This is distinctly different from merely trying to sell something to someone, which is probably one of the most distasteful processes either party can ever go through."
