interesting to hear your views on this – it came up in my research of late and I wasn’t sure whether it was a ‘legit’ protocol, I may check it out!

It does not discriminate between “good” or “bad” bacteria, in other words, it does not “spare” good bacteria. The effectiveness of colloidal silver has to do with the way it weakens the outer wall of the bacterial or virus wall, allowing your immune system to destroy the bacteria or virus. As with any anti-bacterial product, probiotics should be taken during/after the use of it. For this reason, it should only be consumed as needed, not daily.

I have been using ionic silver made by sovereign silver, for a month.
I am a Crohn’s disease patient and in order to avoid a complicated surgery for removing a stricture in my large intestine i wanted to give it a try even if my logic said its not normal to take something like that.
Someone said it helped him open his strictures so that is how i found myself curious about trying it.
Besides typical Crohn’s disease i have also inflammation in my liver that is caused by Crohn’s disease and began after my first surgery.

So right away after starting using CS, i started to feel bad but i thought its cause of Herxheimer Reaction that is said to happen cause of the usage of CS.
So i kept taking it everyday until month after that i felt so weak and my liver had strong inflammation that i had to stop taking it.

Now after my blood tests shows an elevation in liver enzymes, all i have is to hope it will pass otherwise i have put myself into deep troubles cause of CS.

I wish only if there was a way to detox my liver from that stuff.
And they say that CS is excreted easily from the body cause of its nano size.

Mary,

I have a friend that turned blue from over use of silver. Is there any way to reverse these silver particles from indefinitely staying in the skin? I’ve read several articles and haven’t read anything helpful just yet.

Thanks,
Amanda

“”It does not discriminate between “good” or “bad” bacteria, in other words, it does not “spare” good bacteria.””

=============================

““The question is, ‘how can silver destroy bad bacteria and yet selectively spare the good bacteria?’

In other words, why does it kill pathogens like strep and staph and pseudomonas and yeast, yet, it doesn’t kill our good intestinal flora.

Here’s why: if this is my silver, and it’s in a crystalline complex or a structure, this structured silver is significant because it’s going to steal one electron. And we talked about that in an earlier video. So what happens if I steal an electron from this bacteria is that that actually ruptures and the contents pour out; the bacteria dies. Because this membrane is one electron thick, it’s easy to steal one electron, rupture it like a water balloon, and it just gushes out, the immune system cleans it all up.

Now, healthy bacteria is different. When you talk about healthy bacteria, we talk about bacterial classifications or nomenclature. What that means is, is that a bacteria is labeled by a genus, or its genetic makeup, and then its species. So we have lactobacillus and then acidophilus, that would be a good healthy bacteria.

The genetic label, lactobacillus, all bacteria labeled lactobacillus, are labeled because they secrete a milkfat around themselves to protect themselves. So from their inner lining, they secrete, like an excretion coating themselves, so what you’ve got is like an M&M, here is the soft milk chocolate, and an extra coating around it to protect it from the acid that’s in your stomach. You see, these are healthy, and they lie in your intestines and they need to have protection from the acids of your stomach. They have learned to do so, evolved or created to be such, by making this milkfat go around them.

Silver is water-soluble. Water and fats don’t mix. They separate. Now, a bacteria with only one layer of electrons around it, easily loses an electron and dies, but, the good, healthy bacteria are genetically different with a second coating. And any water, or any silver, that comes in contact with it will not penetrate the fat.

The fat layer is a barrier to silver penetrating it. It’s that simple.

The same thing can be said about every cell in your body if it’s healthy. All of our healthy cells are made of a lipid bi-layer. Lipid meaning fat, bi-layer meaning two. So every cell in your body doesn’t just have one layer, it has two, and they’re made of fats so water doesn’t penetrate.

The simple answer to why silver liquids and gels don’t kill good, healthy bacteria, is because they can’t penetrate a double fat layer because they’re water-soluble, but easily steal electrons that are only one electron thick, in the unhealthy, pathogenic bacteria.””

Hi Mary,

I believe the brand you recommend is NOT colloidal silver. Instead, it is ionic silver.
