Is Colloidal Silver The 'Silver Bullet?'

The 'power' of colloidal silver have been lauded for thousands of years, only to be quieted by penicillin and other bacteria killers manufactured by the pharmaceutical labs, given Latin names and used to fight every bacterium originated disease known to man.

The results of shunning this natural antibiotic has been that diseases have evolved to have a resistance to the man made antibiotics and now scientists are scrambling to find replacements for the antibiotics that have survived less than 100 years.

There are critics that believe that the large pharmaceutical companies are pressuring the regulatory agencies to prevent nano-sized silver products from being sold directly to the public without the giants taking their cut. Websites have sold silver nanoparticles in solution known as colloidal silver without the ability to mention what the product will cure or testimonials from those that have had positive results. (Government regulation)

Curad, makers of hospital bandages lined with nano-silver particles has released Curad Silver Bandages for the home use instead of a Band-aid. Curad claims 'that silver reduced bacterial growth like Staph. aureaus, E. coli, E. hirae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa'.

Asia has become the largest consumer of products that uses the nano-silver as a antimicrobial ingredient. Colloidal silver is known to kill viruses. Is it possible they are guarding against bird flu?

While some agencies strive to prevent you from buying colloidal silver online, the EPA is clear that we NOW have silver in our drinking supply and has, for health purposes established a daily reference dose for silver in drinking water at 350 micrograms (u.g) and a critical dose at 1400 u.g. In contrast, international health bodies, like the World Health Organization, have not established such standards for silver since its toxicity is very low.

Silver 'becomes more active against microbes when its made into small particles because they can cover more surface area when they come into direct contact with bacteria,' according to Andrew Maynard, a physicist and chief scientific adviser for studies on Emerging Nanotechnologies, underway at Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington.

So what diseases will colloidal silver display benefits for? Bacteria and virus are known to be killed by silver suspended in a liquid of nanoparticle size called colloidal silver. In addition to the bacterial growths like Staph. aureaus, E. coli, E. hirae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, yeast, fungus and virus have all died in tests using colloidal silver. So is yeast infection a yeast? Yes. Is ringworm a fungus? Yes. Is acne caused by bacteria? Yes. Is sinusitis caused by a bacteria infection? Yes. Is silver used in infants eyes? Yes. Is silver used for burn victims? Yes. Is colloidal silver an immune system support? Yes. Will colloidal silver be the answer for bird flu?

Colloidal Silver is just possibly one of the most powerful weapons we have against many bacteria and viruses!

What kills the HIV-1 (and virtually any other) virus? The answer may surprise you: Silver. In a landmark study, the Journal of Nanotechnology has published research that found silver nanoparticles (microscopic particles) kill HIV-1 and are likely to kill nearly any other virus out there. The first study to ever explore the medicinal benefits of silver nanoparticles, it was conducted by the University of Texas and Mexico University.

During the study, researchers incubated the HIV-1 virus at 37C, and then introduced it to silver nanoparticles. Surprisingly, the silver particles killed 100% of the virus within 3 hours.

Sinus Infections, also known as Sinusitis affect millions of people each and every year. A sinus infection is literally an infection of your sinuses, which are hollow passages or cavities inside of your head. These sinus cavities can become a breeding ground for bacteria, viruses or fungus. In 1999, The Mayo Clinic released its findings that fungus is likely the cause of nearly all cases of chronic sinusitis. Sinus infection symptoms can include Facial pains, tenderness of the sinus areas, headaches, nasal drainage that is thick and colored, sore throat and many other symptoms. Antibiotics do not work against fungus. So the doctor giving you antibiotics for your sinus infection, is barking up the wrong tree!

Colloidal Silver has got to be the biggest and most powerful weapon we could be using to fight bacteria in the world, but were not! Why? Because it won't make the drug companies a penny and can't be sold to us for exorbitant amounts like their drugs.

Colloidal Silver is just too powerful to ignore. It may kill over 650 bacteria. Do you know how many bacteria our man made antibiotics can stop?? Six to eight!

You don't hear about that fact, do you?
