Colloidal Silver: What It Is And How It Works

Colloidal Silver
Colloidal Silver: What it is and how it works

August 15, 2017 //  by Marian Mitchell//  4 Comments

Colloidal Silver: What It Is And How It Works

Between 1900 and 1940 silver was the primary antibiotic used in medical practice.  Numerous studies on the antibiotic properties of silver were conducted from 1920 – 1940.  Physicians mixed silver preparations in their offices and they were either taken orally or injected.  The shelf life was poor, as they had no way to keep the silver particles in suspension for longer than fifteen minutes.  

 

The Transition From Silver To Modern Antibiotics
 

The unwieldy use of silver antibiotics gave way to the far easier to use sulfa drugs and eventually penicillin.  At the time these compounds seemed more effective and were certainly easier to use.  Now we have antibiotic-resistant strains from overuse of these drugs.  And we have to use highly toxic doses of antibiotics to get a result in the bacteria that can still be killed by antibiotics, a problem of antibiotic-related toxicity to the humans consuming them.  Bacteria do not generally develop resistance to silver unless they have a very thick wall that does not absorb it (it is effective against most gram positive and gram negative bacteria). 

 

How Colloidal Silver Works
 

Colloidal silver is non-toxic, non-addictive, and has no side effects. The body develops no tolerance to it and one cannot overdose. 

This is a pure and safe element and you cannot overdose. The U.S. Government’s Center for Disease Control confirmed in 1995 that there has never been any allergic, toxic or carcinogenic reactions to colloidal silver. And the Environment Protection Agency has reported that silver is neither an eye nor skin irritant. 

Within a few minutes, the pathogen suffocates and dies and is cleared out of the body by the immune, lymphatic and elimination systems. The presence of Colloidal Silver near a virus, fungus, bacterium or any other single celled pathogen disables its oxygen metabolism enzyme, its chemical lung. 

Unlike pharmaceutical antibiotics which 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 absolutely safe for humans. 

The Answer To Antibiotic Resistance?  

 

Colloidal Silver is the result of an electro-magnetic process that pulls microscopic particles from a larger piece of silver into a liquid such as water. These microscopic particles can more easily penetrate and travel throughout the body. Colloidal Silver works as a catalyst, disabling the enzyme that all one celled bacteria fungi and viruses use for their oxygen metabolism. In short, the bad guys suffocate. 

Unlike with antibiotics, resistant strains have never been known to develop. In fact, antibiotics are only effective against perhaps a dozen forms of bacteria and fungi, but never viruses. 

 

Diseases Colloidal Silver Is Used For 

Because no known disease causing organism can live in the presence of even minute traces of the chemical element of metallic silver, colloidal silver is effective against more than 650 different disease causing pathogens. This has clinical testing that back up that number. 

Since there is not enough room to list all the diseases against which it has been used successfully, here is a tiny sample;  

  • acne  
  • allergies  
  • appendicitis 
  • arthritis 
  • blood parasites 
  • bubonic plague 
  • burns – colloidal silver is one of the few treatments that can keep severe burn patients alive 
  • Cancers of all kinds 
  • cholera 
  • conjunctivitis 
  • hay fever 
  • herpes 
  • leprosy 
  • leukemia  
  • lupus 
  • Lyme disease  
  • malaria 
  • meningitis  
  • parasitic infections both viral and fungal  
  • pneumonia 
  • rheumatism  
  • ringworm,  
  • scarlet fever  
  • septic conditions of the eyes, ears, mouth and throat  
  • Sexually transmitted diseases including gonorrhea, herpes and syphilis 
  • shingles 
  • staph infections 
  • strep infections 
  • toxemia,  
  • trench foot,  
  • all forms of viruses,  
  • warts  
  • and stomach ulcer.  

In addition it also has veterinary uses such as canine parvo virus. 

You’ll also find it very handy in the garden and bathroom since it can be used against bacterial, fungal and viral attacks on plants and humans. Spray diluted colloidal Silver on plant leaves, and add to soil water. Colloidal Silver gets quickly to the body cells. Keep a spray bottle of it in the bathroom for feet, hands & face. 

 

INGESTING COLLOIDAL SILVER 

 

Taken orally, the solution is absorbed from the mouth into the bloodstream then transported quickly to the body cells. Swishing the solution under the tongue briefly before swallowing ensures fast absorption. 

Since it is eliminated by the kidneys, lymph system and bowel after three weeks, a regular daily intake is recommended as a protection against dangerous pathogens. In cases of minor burns, an accumulation of Colloidal Silver can hasten to heal, reducing scar tissue and infection The lives of millions of people susceptible to chronic low-grade infections can be enhanced by this powerful preventative health measure. 

 

TOPICAL USES 

 

It is painless on burns, cuts, abrasions, in open wounds, in the nostrils for a stuffy nose, arid even in a person’s eyes because unlike antiseptics, it does not destroy tissue cells. It is perfect for cosmetics, creams, and lotions. Spray on then add your favorite beauty product. 

 

SO WHAT DOESN’T COLLOIDAL SILVER DO? 

 

It doesn’t interact with any other medications. It doesn’t upset the stomach and in fact is a digestive aid. It does not sting the eyes. Medical journal reports and documented studies spanning the past 100 years indicate no known side effects from oral or IV administration of colloidal silver in animal or human testing. 

Colloidal silver has been used with good results under the most demanding health care circumstances. Without overstating the case, it may be time to recognize colloidal silver as not only the safest medicine on Earth but also the most powerful.

    I have never heard of this. That is a long list! I never understood why take something away that works and replace it with something that has more side more effects than a drunk driver hitting a parked car.

    This is an excellent write-up on Colloidal silver. I had no idea it was used as an antibiotic.

We are having some beautiful winter weather this w We are having some beautiful winter weather this weekend and I'm stoked! Not only do we need the rain and snow (up north), I get to snuggle in and have enjoy comforting soup! 

I like to use bone broth as my base since it's pretty much liquid gold when it comes to health, then load up the herbs for flavor and their medicinal properties, then add veggies, chicken, and sometimes gluten free noodles. My family prefers less veggies and more noodles than I do so I often make two batches. Are you willing to do two batches of a similar meal to make everyone happy?
There comes a time when your patient load is full, There comes a time when your patient load is full, your running a practice full time, and just don't have the time to give to high-need patients that you used to.

Even though you have the coaching skills, there just isn't enough time. You don't have to overwork yourself or tell the patients to read the handouts again. Instead, you have a couple of options to improve patient success rate and their satisfaction with your care.

#1: Partner with a Health Coach. A health coach can be an invaluable asset to complement your practice. A good one can ensure your patients are clear on the why behind the treatment plan and guide them in implementing it successfully into their lives. I've talked with a lot of ND's and I know that there are a lot of coaches out there who just can't coach to the level you need for your patients. Everyone has their specialty and finding a coach that is able to follow your treatment plan correctly is a challenge. We are out there!
#2 Offer an Online Coaching Program. You can develop this yourself or you can become an affiliate to programs. Becoming an affiliate is nice because you don't have to put the hours into creating your own course and you make a supplemental income while providing patients with the support they need.

Having partnered with ND's for over 7 years, I have seen firsthand how beneficial a coach and online coaching programs are to their practices. It gives them more time to be the doctor and business owner while knowing their patients are following the treatment plan and getting better quickly, with less frustration. This past year I created an affiliate program for not only my ND partners but all ND's to be able to share with their patients directly from their websites. Everyone is happy, especially the patients. If you haven't yet, head to the link in my bio to learn more about my Coaching Programs available for your patients!

Quiche's are an easy way to create a breakfast for Quiche's are an easy way to create a breakfast for the week that is sustaining, delicious, and healthy all at the same time.

I like to use sweet potatoes as my crust, then I add in sauteed veggies like mushrooms, bell peppers, onion, and garlic with precooked bacon or sausage, and if I'm feeling indulgent, some goat cheese along with salt, pepper, and herbs.

The cheese and sausage help keep the texture from getting dry when reheating. However, you can always top with salsa or avocado to help with that as well. This recipe can be found on my YouTube channel, Thrive Gluten Free.

Working from home have you more sedentary than eve Working from home have you more sedentary than ever? You aren't alone!

I'm hearing this from friends and clients alike. They used to get at least 6000 steps in a day and now they are lucky if they get 2000. They are having more hip and back pain too. At the office the bathroom is a lot further away, we had meetings to walk to, lunches, etc. Now literally everything is often on the computer. How does one build movement into your day when there isn't much room to do so? I have a couple of suggestions:

1. Take a 10 minute break every hour or between tasks. Go for a quick walk around your building, do some stretches, go refill your water, do a quick HIIT workout, just get up out of the chair and give your eyes a break. This micro breaks will not only improve your physical wellness, they actually help you be more productive too!
2. Workout during what would have been your commute time. There are a lot of free and paid workout programs out there that are 10-60 minutes long. Replace your would be commute with a workout. There's no reason not to!

These are my suggestions. What have you been doing to include movement into your days?
Spaghetti squash is a great low calorie and nutrie Spaghetti squash is a great low calorie and nutrient dense pasta replacement. It does have a different, sweet flavor that I prefer to pair with a mild spicy sausage or spicy marinara sauce versus pesto or other sweeter sauce.

This quick dinner is just a couple of chicken or pork sausage cooked in the pot with olive oil and garlic, then add in kale and basil leaves plus a couple of cups of cooked and shredded spaghetti squash topped with salt to taste. It's a regular during the fall and winter months.

Healthy fats don't make you fat. Fat has been dem Healthy fats don't make you fat.

Fat has been demonized for years. The popularity of the ketogenic diet has brought it back into fashion, but there's still an innate pull to avoid it.

Did you know that studies since the 1950's have consistently shown that a diet higher in fat and lower in carbs (not ketogenic levels) reduces your appetite while also keeping you satiated? Also, those who eat this way consume 300-600 calories less per day without feeling hungry? Pretty dang cool.

Healthy animal fats are also one of the few sources of nutrients necessary to support the immune system including vitamins, A, D, E, and K2. 

Healthy fats include:
Butter (from pastured animals)
Egg yolks
Fatty fish
Coconut flesh and oil
Olives and olive oil
Avocado and avocado oil
Nuts, seeds, and their butters
Lard and tallow from pastured animals

I like to enjoy 1-2 servings per meal to keep me satiated all day long.
Mold toxicity while rare is often a root cause iss Mold toxicity while rare is often a root cause issue to many other health conditions including
autoimmune disease
migraines
joint pain and swelling
chronic fatigue
systemic pain and inflammation
chronic sinus issues
stubborn GI issues
and many more that nothing seems to help improve

Mold exposure typically happens in the home or office and the constant exposure slowly takes hold in the body. Once it takes hold, it is stubborn and is an extremely long process to get rid of. Typically you find out you have mold in your system through a blood test.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU TEST POSITIVE FOR MOLD
#1 Test your home
If you test positive, then you'll want to get your home tested. If your home has a mold issue, remediation is the best course of action versus trying to take care of it yourself. They will protect your AC system and the rest of your home so that the mold doesn't spread to new areas and continue making you sick.

#2 See a Knowledgeable Doctor
Secondly, you'll need to see a doctor well versed in mold toxicity (like Dr. Geyer) to get on a supplement plan to slowly add-in binding agents and ones to support your intestinal tract, liver, and kidneys during the detox process.

#3 Limit Mold Intake For 3-6 Months
This is where a low mold diet comes into play. You have to limit the number of mycotoxins entering your body through your food for 3-6 months so that you can starve the mold out instead of constantly replenishing it. This is an essential step in recovering from Mold Toxicity/Mold Illness.
